One Piece: God of Space-Chapter 4 The Kingdom of Tru
Chapter 4 The Kingdom of Tru
Times are changing rapidly, and even the Tru Kingdom now has to admit that it is too weak.
There are a total of about 60 countries in the South China Sea, and the Kingdom of Tru can only be regarded as a very inconspicuous country among them.
On this day, after Chang Nuo finished his run, he just arrived at the palace hall. At this time, there were already many people below waiting for his arrival.
As soon as he sat on the throne, one of the old men below began to say, "Your Highness, the coastal areas of our country have been affected by pirates almost every month recently. Should we come up with a better plan regarding this matter? "
"The national funds are limited, and the distance between the Kingdom of Tru and the coastline is too long. With our current military strength, we simply cannot take care of any place!"
Chang Nuo also looked helpless, at least for now.
The fourteen-year-old Chang Nuo gave them the impression that he was very mature and stable, and he considered all aspects of everything well. Even for old men like them, he was very convincing.
Although listening to their reports, this kind of thing didn't happen once or twice, it happened almost every time they discussed it. Changnuo has been thinking about these issues in the past year or two, and they should indeed be focused on solving them now.
At the same time, looking at the depressed looks of the group of people below, Chang Nuo sighed helplessly, and then said with a slight smile, "I already have some plans regarding these things in our kingdom, and I may need your help in the future. , make a good overall statistical budget."
"Your Highness, if you have anything to do, just ask. We will do our best to serve the country and the people. It's time for us old bones to make our final contribution." A thin old man standing at the front said.
"You are all heroes of our Kingdom of Tru. Next, my opinion is to plant all kinds of flowers and herbs in the entire Kingdom of Tru to create our own Kingdom of Tru. Characteristic attributes.”
Chang Nuo stood up, walked a few steps down, and said to them.
There were more than a dozen people standing in the entire hall. Everyone looked at each other, not understanding what Chang Nuo meant at all.
Chang Nuo could also tell that he didn't explain too much. Instead, he took out a bottle of unknown liquid from his pocket, but the exquisite decoration on the bottle made everyone look very interested.
Chang Nuo just sprayed it, and in less than a while, the entire hall began to be filled with fragrance.
Smelling this smell, everyone couldn't help but sigh. 𝒻𝓻𝑒ℯ𝘸𝘦𝑏𝑛𝓸𝓿𝓮𝓁.𝑐𝘰𝓶
"This is the scent of tulips. This thing is called perfume. It is actually available in other countries, but compared to this, it is far, far behind. I have the method to make these. At present, in this country If you grow food, it may be snatched away by pirates soon. Instead of that, it is better to grow something that they cannot take away at all.
This is also an idea I have conceived before. After everyone has planted vanilla, the remaining labor will be responsible for making the entire perfume. At that time, we will sell all these things overseas so that all countries can feel it. It is a specialty of the Tru Kingdom in the South China Sea. "
Chang Nuo continued to say with a smile.
No one has raised objections now. They are all old and mature. Regarding what Chang Nuo said, this group of people can naturally guess what the future benefits will be.
"Your Highness, if the people actually do this, wouldn't the source of food be lost?" said the old man standing in front.
"Don't worry, Mengxi. I have already considered this matter before. From now on, everyone will be responsible for planting flowers and plants, and they must send people over to tell them how to plant them. After the harvest season, let them plant them. All the stamens are picked and sent here. We can pay a certain fee according to the specific situation, and they can be exchanged for food or other daily necessities.
If you don't want these things, you can also pay a certain amount of money. This is what we can do, let all perfumes be made directly in China, and provide those adult men with a job. Only in this way can this country slowly start to move towards Prosperity. "
Chang Nuo said with emotion. Others had already begun to nod, and they still agreed with the way Chang Nuo said it.
For this country's special situation, this is indeed what should be done. Even if we do worse in the future, it will not be worse than the current situation.
Now Nova lacks nothing but money. Once all these things are in place, at least whatever she wants will be satisfied.
Almost everyone else agreed with such remarks, and no one had any objections.
This country is too poor and weak, not to mention that in such an era of great exploration, if you want to preserve a country's economy and people's lives, you naturally need a good leader to participate.
Although Nova is only fourteen years old, for these old men, he has become a very suitable candidate for king.
"Your Highness, I feel that I am getting old. From now on, I will leave it to you young people. It is time for us to follow the old king and retire. It is time to give up our position and leave it to these young people to fight."
Just when the two parties had just reached an agreement on the future plan for the entire country, one of the ministers stood up and said tactfully.
In fact, as they said, the ministers in the entire hall are almost all sixty or seventy years old, the same age as the old king. They have worked hard all their lives in this Tru country.
At their age, it should have been time to enjoy peace and happiness, but because this country is too weak, it has led to the current state.
Chang Nuo is not unreasonable. They have no nostalgia for this position, but Chang Nuo cannot do this.
"You have sacrificed everything for this country. It should have been a time for you to enjoy peace and happiness. However, this country is now like this. It may take at least a few years to fully develop. So in the next time, I still hope that If you can bear to wait for another two years, after a group of new people have been trained, I, Chang Nuo, promise that I will definitely let you live a long life."
Chang Nuo walked in front of everyone, bowed respectfully again, and spoke in a sonorous, powerful and serious tone.
"Your Highness is polite. We just feel that our ability and energy are insufficient, and we are afraid of worrying about His Highness's plans. However, if His Highness needs us, we will definitely stick to our posts even if we die."
Chang Nuo felt deeply after hearing this. After all, although these individuals did not make much difference in this country, they were still an indispensable group of people for this country.
"That's it for today! Everyone, go back first. As for the planning, I will arrange for other people to carry out it, and your help will be indispensable." Chang Nuo said with a smile.
In this palace under the dome, these old men don't know what to say. After all, they are already quite old. They naturally know how far their abilities can reach. The other party has already said this, so they must be sure. They have their own practices to arrange.
After ending the communication with those ministers, Chang Nuo immediately chose to return to the old king. After all, the old man was still his father no matter how much he said it, and some things that should be done still needed to be done.
Now the old king's face was full of vicissitudes of life, and the wrinkles on his face were almost tight together. However, when he saw Nova coming over, he still held up his body, smiled, and shouted in a weak voice, "Come on Chang Nuo." Already..."
"Dad, how are you feeling today?"
Chang Nuo sat directly on the bedside and asked softly with a smile.
"It's good. At least there are no problems recently." The old king smiled, and then said with frustration, "Just take over the position of king tomorrow. From now on, the Kingdom of Tru will be handed over to you."
"What are you talking about? After this period of time, the kingdom will still be waiting for you to preside over it. I am just helping."
"I know my father's situation very well. There is no need to say such comforting words. It is enough to live to this age. I just want to leave this huge country to you and it is still in such a dilapidated state. Dad I feel guilty in my heart." The old king said with a smile with tears in his eyes.
"Don't worry, my son will definitely make the Tru Kingdom prosperous in the future, and it will never remain like this." Chang Nuo said comfortingly.
"You have been different since you were a child. Dad believes in you. But from now on when pirates are rampant, dad will still..."
Before he could finish his words, Chang Nuo picked up a crystal ball placed on the bedside of the old king and put it directly in his hand. Then with just a little effort, the entire crystal ball turned into powder in an instant.
Seeing this scene, the old king was not surprised. Originally, what he was most worried about was that his son might not be able to guarantee his own safety. Now that's better.
The old king smiled and continued happily, "I see. If you feel pressured in the future, just join the World Government."
"Don't worry about the future. These sons will do it. Relax yourself. Since you don't want to worry, then take a good rest. In the future, your son will definitely let you see a stronger Tru Kingdom." Changnuo smiled at him. The old king said comfortingly.
"That's good, but dad can't see it anymore, but our Toru Kingdom is not without its merits."
As the old king spoke, his hands began to tremble, and he took out a piece of parchment from under the pillow, and he didn't know what was drawn on it.
"This is a treasure map that has been kept in the palace. Now it is handed over to you. You can follow the things on it to pursue it in the future." The old king said.
Now this is indeed of no use to him, so leaving it to Chang Nuo is the best choice.
The Kingdom of Toru is different from other countries. There are no so-called nobles in this kingdom. Almost all of them are poor. In recent years, due to the pirate incident, the people have been in dire straits.
Chang Nuo took the treasure map and didn't pay too much attention to the things on it. Instead, he still comforted and said, "I will just accept the things. Don't worry about the rest. My son is still here for everything."
Chang Nuo understood that the current old king's body would definitely not be able to support it for long, but even so, it would not disappear at any time.
The arrangements for the entire country had already started two years ago. His so-called perfume idea was indeed a very good choice. After all, even if food is grown in this country, it is very likely that it will not be able to survive in the end. of.
But planting flowers and plants is different. For outsiders, this thing has almost no effect.
There is almost no money in the palace now. How to maintain the operation of such a large country is the main consideration next.
The two chatted for more than half an hour, and Chang Nuo walked out with a sad look on his face. His father's body really couldn't last much longer. According to Chang Nuo's estimation, it would only last two months at most.
But as soon as he walked out of the door, a guard hurriedly ran over from outside.
The moment they saw Chang Nuo, the guard hurriedly bowed and saluted, and said respectfully and panicked, "Your Highness, a large number of pirates have appeared in Nanniwa Port. Master Junhe asked us to inform you as soon as possible. I hope you can Get an idea!”
Faced with this sudden incident, Nova looked calm. Seeing the nervous look of the guard who came over, Chang Nuo directly said, "How many troops are there now?"
"Your Highness, there are currently about 500 people in Nanniwa Port, but there are a lot of pirates, about 1,000."
"Let's go, I'll go over and take a look too."
Changnuo continued to say calmly, Nanniwa Port is not very far from the palace, and the country itself is not particularly big. According to Nova's current speed, it can be reached in about half an hour.
At Nanniwa Port, the two parties were almost confronting each other. Standing at the front was a young man who looked about 20 years old, with fierce and stern eyes.
This person is Junhe, the most loyal person in the kingdom, and he is also considered particularly powerful in terms of strength.
When Chang Nuo was ten years old, he had already begun to train a number of people, using the training of the Sixth Form of the Navy at that time, and informed them about the practice of domineering, but the number of people in the end was not very large.
But even if Junhe is one of them, he is also the most powerful one.
Facing the seven or eight pirate ships in front of him, Junhe didn't feel nervous at all, but he also clenched his fists. Such a huge pirate group was really intimidating.
The most important thing is that no one knows the purpose of coming to the Tru Kingdom.
"What's going on now?"
Junhe was watching the arrival of the pirate ship, but suddenly a voice sounded behind him. When he turned his head and looked over, Changnuo had already appeared behind him.
