Chapter 355: We Must Get Food Today

Chapter 355: Food must be brought back today
The two men asked tremblingly: "Your Highness, are you dissatisfied with these glass cups?"

Kate at this moment was like an angry lion, staring at them and roaring: "Do you know that these are worthless in Daqin? If I hadn't experienced Daqin myself, I would never understand this!"

"Daqin's industrial strength is strong, and their manufacturing skills for this kind of product have reached the pinnacle. In fact, if they want, they can produce a large amount of high-quality products in one day!"

"Guess how much these are actually worth in Daqin? Just guess!"

The two young masters were stunned, and then they began to guess, and the amount was getting lower and lower until it dropped to one tael of gold. Prince Kate still glared at him and shook his head wildly.

Finally, one of them asked in disbelief: "Is it only worth thirty coins?"

Prince Kate nodded heavily.

Upon hearing this, the two sons of the Duke of Night were horrified.

In their opinion, if the glass cup was really so cheap, wouldn't it mean that all the food and supplies were wasted?

Moreover, how could these things be worth only thirty coins? This undoubtedly caused a huge shock to them. However, looking at the expression of Prince Kate, it seemed that this was true.

So, they asked in trembling voices: "What should we do now? It seems that they have transported the grain back to the Dukedom of Rose!"

Kaiya responded immediately: "Why are you still hesitating? Send someone to retrieve the food immediately and tell them that we don't want the glass cup anymore. What we want is the food. At least we can recover some of the losses. At worst, we can just take it back!"

Looking at the food reserves in the warehouse, Prince Kate felt heavy in his heart. If it is not handled properly, it may lead to large-scale unrest!

"If things get worse, both of you must be prepared to die! Solve this problem immediately!"

Upon hearing this, the Duke's two sons rushed out of the door like frightened birds.

Looking at the two brothers who left in a hurry, Prince Kate was filled with disappointment. He was puzzled as to why he couldn't even win three games against Daqin in China.

Could it be that the people of Daqin were born to be the nemesis of the Romans? He couldn't believe it!
However, the current loss is just some food and supplies. The food crisis can be resolved by waiting for the new season's harvest.

The key is to ensure a good harvest. Speaking of this, he suddenly felt a chill, and uneasiness surged into his heart like a tide.

Why do I have a premonition that I have already made a prophecy of death?

Meanwhile, near the borders of the Roman Empire.

A strange trend was quietly approaching, but the Romans didn't pay much attention at first.

The dark cloud seemed to be approaching, but when it gradually approached, the Roman farmers noticed something strange.

Someone keenly identified that it was a locust!

"They are locusts! Run away! They are locusts!"

At first, the farmers just wanted to escape, but suddenly someone realized a problem.

If they run away, what will happen to the crops in the fields?
Sure enough, after the locusts passed, the farmers returned to their fields.

All that was seen was devastation; the crops that were about to be harvested had been eaten up.

And this swarm of locusts is still moving, spreading to all parts of the Roman Empire!
At first, it was just a disaster in the North, but things tend to take a turn for the worst.

The Huang Cong that had originally gathered together now split into several waves and launched a fierce attack on the grain producing areas in various places! At this time, the wheat fields that were about to mature also became their target.

The locusts were like greedy thieves, devouring the Roman land madly!
For a time, the whole of Rome was in a state of food shortage!

When the sons of the two Dukes of Darkness arrived at the caravan and tried to find the leader to return the goods, they were sternly rejected by the captain of the caravan.

The captain looked at them with a mocking smile on his face and said:
"My two lords, this is a contract you signed with your own hands."

"No matter! We have to get the food back now!"

"You didn't act like this when you signed the contract. Wouldn't it be a bit dishonest to go back on your word now? This is not in line with your Roman belief in honesty."

Upon hearing this, the two young masters' faces were filled with shame that could hardly be concealed.

They had never expected that this person would trade with them the most common things in their country and humiliate them in front of everyone. This was an absolutely unbearable shame for them!

Then, a young man suddenly stood up, looked directly at the captain, and said sternly: "I advise you to think about it. My lord is the absolute overlord in Rome. If you don't return our property, we will go to the Duke of Darkness to argue!"

"Hehe, you can give it a try and see if my young master will let your duke succeed easily." Just when the atmosphere between the two sides was tense, a green figure walked out calmly from the castle.

The figure casually lifted up the two sons of the Duke of Darkness, a move that stunned the two men for a moment.

The young man in front of them was too young, but his strength was incredibly powerful, almost on par with their father!

"Who are you? Why is your strength almost the same as my father's?"

"This has nothing to do with you."

The two men trembled all over because they knew that they could not afford to offend anyone who could be compared to their father.

And this young man is just such a person. At this moment, Ying Heng looked at the two people in front of him, feeling both amused and helpless.

Thinking they were tough guys, he threw them to the ground and said to them calmly, "Are you here to get your things back? I tell you, these grains belong to me now. Take your glass cups, and don't even think about getting your hands on these grains."

"I want you to know that our caravan consumes a huge amount of food every day. I will not give you a single grain of this food."

After hearing this, the two young masters realized that the situation was not right and had to retreat back to the palace in embarrassment. Looking at their departing backs, the captain of the caravan behind Ying Heng couldn't help but feel a little worried.

He asked with concern: "Your Majesty, are you sure there is no risk in doing this? I am worried that if they really come with troops, it may be a bit tricky."

"Besides, according to investigations, the strength of the Dark Night Duke has reached the middle stage of the Heavenly Man Realm, and there are many strong men of the same level in Rome. If you don't handle it properly, you may be surrounded."

Ying Heng heard this, as if he had heard something funny. He smiled and patted the captain on the shoulder, comforting him: "Don't worry, it's not that easy to touch me with my strength at the Heaven Realm. Just focus on your business."

"As ordered!"

Afterwards, Ying Heng returned to the castle. He still had a lot of food to taste today. The captain of the caravan looked at Ying Heng who was so calm and admired him in his heart.

"Your Highness, you are unfathomable!"

Afterwards, he silently swore allegiance to Ying Heng in his heart, and then stood up to deal with personal matters. In the palace, the Duke of Dark Night informed King Kate of all the information.
