our family is gone

Chapter 151 Hoarding Food
"Ah!" Tiffany didn't expect her family to be included, and immediately questioned, "Why do you have to arrange it like this?"

"Don't worry, I will let people give priority to protecting them and try to ensure that they arrive safely."

"No, why is it so safe in the city, do you have to let us go outside?"

"Hey~" Lance sighed, and then explained: "You should know that most of the empire's food is produced in the central plains. Now that the situation is like this, all people have fled. Even if the rain relieves the drought, no one is farming. It can be said that It is still difficult to recover within a year or two.

Now that there are food stocks everywhere, do you guess what will happen in a while? "

Listening to this, Tiffany fell into deep thought, as if she understood the situation she was facing now.

"When the time comes, there will be a shortage of food everywhere, and the price of food in this kind of city will definitely soar, which will further stimulate the public. Your food sellers will definitely be targeted immediately. Do you think it is safe?
And now Walter is in charge of the entire farm in Hamlet, and he doesn't have to worry about food and drink. Although your conditions were a little worse than here in the past, it's safe, and Walter will have a headache here. "

"But……"

"No, but, whether you like to go or not, anyway, that's all I've said, and it's up to you whether you want to listen or not.

You just need to arrange other things for me within today to ensure that tomorrow's actions will not be disturbed. "

"I understand, let's arrange it now." Tiffany quickly figured out the doorway.

More importantly, if it weren't for him, the business group would have disbanded a long time ago, and this man would have no need to harm himself.

Tiffany left in a hurry to deal with those matters, but Lance looked dignified.

I must hurry up, there is not much time~
…………

"Welcome back!"

Lance heard that Disma and the others came back and hurried out of the station, just in time to meet Disma and Leonard who had taken off his helmet.

Looking at their haggard faces, Lance also understood that this journey was not easy. It can be said that the two of them drove for three days non-stop, let alone people, and even the horses were almost unable to withstand it.

"Is there any danger on the road?" Raising his hand, he even blesses people and horses to strengthen his status, and then goes up to take care of him.

While he was talking, two people in simple clothes came down from the carriage, a woman with a gentle face, and beside her was a boy who had grown up and was almost as tall as his mother.

"This is the lord." Leonard reminded him.

"Hello, my lord~" The woman greeted with a respectful face, but the child's face was obviously stubborn.

He didn't say anything at all, but looked at the so-called lord in front of him with dissatisfaction.

Lance also saw that this kid was difficult to deal with. It seemed that Leonard's trip was somewhat troublesome.

But what he needed to play was not a taciturn father like Leonard, and immediately walked over with a sincere expression on his face, took the woman's rough hands and explained apologetically.

"Ma'am, I'm really sorry, Leonard followed me to open up the territory, in order to fight against those enemies for so many years, I couldn't let him go back to see you.

It's all my fault that he hasn't been able to go back for so many years. Now that the territory has just stabilized, I said just take it over, everyone is a family. "

Although Lance let go of his hand quickly, his enthusiasm made it difficult for the woman to adapt, and the expression on his face was a little embarrassed.

"What are you doing? Let go!" Seeing his mother's embarrassed expression, the boy was not afraid of Lance's identity at all, and stopped in front of his mother, wanting to protect his mother.

Seeing his son's actions, Leonard couldn't help but frowned, and got up to stop him, but Lance raised his hand to stop him.

Looking at him, he smiled and reached out to pat him on the shoulder, nodded affirmatively: "Very well, as a man, he should protect his family, no wonder Leonard told me every day that his son will grow up to be a man, you He lived up to his father's expectations."

The boy probably didn't expect Lance's reaction. Hearing this, he couldn't help but look at his father, whom he hadn't seen since he was a child.

This made Leonard a little embarrassed, but Lance would not be embarrassed, he would open his mouth to say anything good,
"Reynard often mentions you to me..."

Lance started blowing directly, and the boy who was stubborn in front of Leonard was tamed within a few words.

Children of this age are not afraid of anything, and they always eat soft things rather than hard things.

In addition, Leonard left home when he was very young, and he was even more upset about the sudden appearance of his father.

But these are not big things in front of Lance. He tried his best to promote Leonard's concern for them and put the blame on himself, which can be regarded as temporarily filling the emotional gap between them.

"Okay, you've been tired for so long, let's talk after you rest."

They also sat in the car for a few days. Of course, it was impossible for Lance to drag them, but to arrange them.

After arranging the people, Lance looked at Disma and the other two.

"What's going on on the road?"

"Refugees, you can see refugees along the way, but fortunately they were not attacked."

"Natural disasters and man-made disasters, troubled times will arise~" Lance said slowly, but he quickly realized that whoever has the food in this situation has the initiative, and immediately gave orders.

"Food must be in short supply in the last one or two years. After returning home, tell Walter not to sell grain, but to collect grain. No matter the quality, as long as it is grain, we will collect it. We must get all the grain nearby. Money doesn't matter, the grain is stored The more the merrier.

At the same time, we must start to select some of those refugees to join the army, with the thirty as the backbone, we must expand to at least 100 people..."

Hoarding food and guns, I am king in troubled times.

"Are you going to leave again, my lord?"

Both of them understood the meaning of these words. They had just driven for three days. Although the physical exhaustion was eliminated, the mental exhaustion was not so simple.

"I also want to have time to slowly appreciate the beauty of this world, but don't forget what we are fighting against. Every minute of delay, the influence of corruption will be deeper, and the crisis will be closer to us. The people of the territory are waiting for us. Wait for our rescue."

Speaking of this, even Disma couldn't help but have a correct attitude, "Don't worry, my lord, I promise to complete the task."

"I'm going to prepare now." Leonard also picked up his helmet and prepared to get up.

"No hurry, we will leave tomorrow." Lance raised his hand to stop them, and comforted him: "It takes time to dispatch personnel and supplies, so you can rest at ease, so that you can be energetic."

Speaking of which, Lance roughly talked about what happened in the past few days, not only to divert their attention and let them relax, but also to let them understand the situation here.
