After being betrayed by the Empire, I decided to assist the Demon King

Chapter 17 The So-called Fertilizers

Naivety may not be a bad thing... If the courtiers have no second thoughts, or the person they trust the most has enough ability, then a king who is naive and trusts others wholeheartedly will be the best king in the world.

Ira thought that he would never have a second heart, so after receiving such trust, he was touched differently from when he was in the empire.

Ira, who said he was "only responsible for making the Demon King stronger", is now unknowingly participating in the effort to make the Demon King's domain more advanced... In a sense, he is a arrogant guy.

I remember User once said [If you think my daughter is doing a great job, just say it directly, don't say things like "very good, but I can do better next time" ~ hahaha! !As a man, but being so dishonest, I don't feel at ease handing over the empire to you! ] and the like.

That said, as if he was Uther's son, or he was going to take the Empire...

What an impressive king!

……

The location of the monster's territory is in the southeast of the mainland. It used to be a large area, but now the land has been taken back by the empire... and the demon king's territory is on the upper right of the demon king's territory, with the sea above it.

Surrounding the Demon King's City is the Demon King's Land, where there are many monsters whose living conditions are not harsh... Monsters like the harpies naturally live on the high mountains outside the Demon King's Land.

However, in fact, it can’t be regarded as living outside the Demon King’s Territory. To be precise... it extends from the Demon King’s City, skips down to the farmland at the edge of the Demon King’s Territory, and then extends outward to other rebellious or non-rebellious places. The territory of the monster leader.

Until the periphery of the opponent's territory, it is considered the territory of the Demon King's territory.

But generally speaking, only the outermost farmland area is counted, and the farther places are just meaningless wastelands and jungles, with all kinds of beasts or uncivilized monsters.

It's okay for beasts, the residents of the Demon King's Land are monsters after all, not the people of the empire, but there is an essential difference between uncivilized monsters and monsters - when you meet the former, the former is a delicacy, and when you meet the latter, you are a delicacy.

Those monsters, no matter whether you are the people of the devil or not, you don't think they are the people of the devil at all, but they are no different from the beasts that only know how to attack and kill.

The goblin is the manager of all the residents. There are blacksmiths, stonemasons, carpenters, tailors and other occupations in the territory that exchange labor and the devil's city for food and daily necessities...Of course, they are also the property of the devil.

Therefore, the goblin needs to report the food and clothing expenses in the devil's territory to the devil's city, and the ghost glasses girl will count the reports of the generals and goblins, and trade supplies when the merchants arrive.

……

"Master Demon King~"

"Welcome to."

"farm."

"The most recent form."

"very bad."

The leaders of the goblins said what they wanted to say word by word one after another in this way, and the cooperation was very good, as if a person was speaking normally.

On the outskirts of the Demon King's Territory, there are patches of farmland. Most of the crops are unique to this world, such as blue chrysanthemum mushrooms, but there are also a small number of foods that also existed in previous lives.

The form looks really bad, most of the crops look rickety and uneven, as if they are going to die at any moment.

"What's the specific problem?"

Satan Ye asked, and only at this time, she looked a little bit like a lord... Yes, like a lord, because generally speaking, the king would not be reduced to asking about the crops in person.

"may be"

"no"

"Fertilizer"

"The Last Time of the Merchant"

"last time"

"many times"

"Not for sale"

"fertilizer"

"..."

The words of the goblin leaders revealed the truth of the matter...

"It seems that's why."

Xilina felt that she had found out the truth of the matter, and she explained to Ira and Satanye aloud: "In fact, before there was something like gravel called [fertilizer], we harvested After the crops, an area is replaced and cultivated.”

"Although I don't know why, if you sprinkle fertilizers during the planting process, you can ensure that the crop yield increases, and you don't need to change the planting area frequently. A few years ago, the businessman said that the fertilizers are no longer sold. "

"But it seems that the effect of the fertilizer has continued until now, and finally it can't support it anymore."

Under Xilina's explanation, and under Ira's eyes like dead fish eyes, Satan Ye, who also knew about it, said, "Next time, change the planting area... fertilizer, what is it?"

"..."

"Uh, fertilizer is a... special product of the empire."

As Yila said this, the names such as [N, P, K] flickered in her head, but after careful consideration, she still didn't explain it to them... because they definitely didn't understand.

"Well, I know that."

Satan Ye nodded. She blinked and said, "We asked Ms. Vera, and she said that there is magic involved in the production of fertilizers, which may be related to alchemy...Mr. Ira, do you know the situation?"

Having said that, Satan Ye and Xilina didn't have any expectations, because in their impression, Ira is a powerful consul, and there should be no connection with alchemy.

"This is..."

Ira pondered, thinking about what he should say, and finally made up her mind to say: "Actually, I improved the fertilizer, and I was the one who persuaded Isabella to prohibit foreign trade."

"Naturally, I know the process and raw materials of making fertilizer. Although Mana is indeed involved, the fertilizer, technology and materials I designed are not as complicated as you imagined... We should be able to make it."

Surrounded by the scattered Headless Horsemen, Ira, Xilina, and Satan Ye stood around the field, as he said... his eyes were on the goblins and goblins who were pulling weeds in the field.

"Great! Mr. Ira!"

"..."

However, apart from Satan Ye's very happy appearance, Xilina did not show a very happy appearance. She knew very well that such things should not be said as Ira.

This is the secret of the empire, and it is also one of the means to drag down the monsters.

If Ira told the Demon King and told her, then it would be true treason.

……

"Can we give something in exchange for the method of refining the fertilizer? The title of the Demon Lord?"

Xilina, who was very sober, asked this question, but she didn't think the title was valuable... It can be said that if Ira can accept the title, or even just accept the title without paying anything, then Ira will suffer.

The meaning of these words is undoubtedly asking Ira in a roundabout way if she wants to officially join the Demon King City.

"I do not know."

Ira said that... not only answering the topic of fertilizers, but also responding to Xilina's obscurity.
