Our family is in decline

"Ah!" Tiffany didn't expect that her family would also be arranged, and immediately questioned, "Why is it arranged like this?"

"Don't worry, I will give people priority to protect them and ensure that they arrive safely as much as possible."

"No, why does the city have to be so safe for us to go outside?"

"Hey~" Lance sighed, and then explained: "You should know that most of the food in the empire is produced in the central plains. In the current situation, everyone has fled. Even if the rainfall alleviates the drought, no one will farm. It can be said that It will still be difficult to recover within a year or two.

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

Tiffany fell into deep thought after hearing this, and she seemed to understand the situation she was facing now.

"When there is a food shortage in various places, the price of food in this city will definitely soar, which will further stimulate the people. You people who sell food will definitely be targeted immediately. Do you think it is safe or not?

And now that Walter is in charge of the entire farm in Hamlet, he doesn't have to worry about food and drink. Although your conditions were a little worse than here in the past, it was safe. This place is left to Walter to worry about. "

"But……"

"No but, you can go or not, that's all I have to say, it's up to you whether you want to or not.

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

"I understand, let's make arrangements now." Tiffany quickly figured out the trick.

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

Tiffany left in a hurry to deal with those things, but Lance looked solemn.

We have to hurry up, we don’t have much time~

…………

"Welcome back!"

When Lance heard that Disma and the others were back, he quickly walked out of the station and happened to meet Disma and Leonard who had taken off their helmets.

Looking at their haggard faces, Lance also understood that this journey was not easy. It could be said that the two of them had been traveling day and night for three days. Not to mention the people, even the horses were almost unable to hold up.

"You didn't encounter any danger on the road, right?" He raised his hand to give blessings to the people and horses to refresh his status, and then went up to care about him.

While he was talking, two people in simple clothes got off 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 Lord Lord." Leonard reminded him.

"Hello, sir~" The woman greeted her respectfully, but the child had an obvious stubbornness on his face.

He didn't shout 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 was in some trouble this time.

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

"Madam, I'm really sorry. Leonard followed me to open up 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 we should just take it over. We are all one family. "

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

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

Leonard couldn't help but frown when he saw his son's actions. He stood up and wanted to stop him, but Lance raised his hand to stop him.

Looking at him, he smiled and reached out to pat his shoulder, nodding and affirming: "Very good, as a man, you should protect your family. No wonder Leonard keeps telling me that his son will be a man when he grows up. You I lived up to my father’s expectations.”

The boy may not have expected Lance's reaction. Hearing this, he couldn't help but look at his father, whom he had not seen since he was a child.

This made Leonard a little embarrassed, but Lance was not embarrassed and would just say anything nice.

"Leonard often mentioned you guys to me..."

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

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 unhappy with the sudden appearance of his father.

However, these are not big things in front of Lance. He strongly encourages Leonard to care about them and takes the blame on himself, which can temporarily fill the emotional gap between them.

"Okay, you have been tired for such a long time. Let's get some rest before we talk."

They had also been in the car for several days. Of course, Lance couldn't drag them with them, but had to arrange them.

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

"What's going on on the road?"

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

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

"Food must have been in short supply in the past year or two. After I went back, I told Walter not to sell grain, but to collect grain. No matter the quality, as long as it is grain, I will collect it. I want to get all the grain nearby. Money doesn't matter. The grain is stored." The more the better.

At the same time, we must start to select some of the refugees to join the army, using those thirty as the backbone, and expand it to at least one hundred people..."

Stocking up on food and guns, I am the king in troubled times.

"My lord, are you leaving again?"

Both of them understood what this meant. They had just traveled for three days. Although the physical fatigue had been eliminated, the mental fatigue was not that simple.

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

Speaking of this, even Disma couldn't help but correct his attitude, "Don't worry, sir. I promise to complete the task."

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

"There's no rush, we'll start again tomorrow." Lance raised his hand to stop them and reassured them: "It takes time to arrange personnel and supplies, so you can rest peacefully so that you can be energetic."

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