Chapter 710 The second prince’s sincerity (2)

By all right, showing us this was showing us how strong their country was.

This should be a secret that was closely guarded by them and the second prince should know this, but he was actually bringing us to tour the farms.

It was almost as if he was inviting us to see the state of his country.

Just how would that help him?

But of course, we wouldn't turn this opportunity down.

In the first place, the Midra Kingdom was still a hostile kingdom to our kingdom, even if we were trying to build relations with them. In the end, we would have to take care of the Midra Kingdom eventually since they wouldn't give up on trying to take down our kingdom.

So we would naturally try to find as much information as we can about the Midra Kingdom.

What we found was...

The Midra Kingdom's crops were growing well.

Unlike the Beirut Kingdom that had poor land and poor farming techniques, the Midra Kingdom's land was well managed and properly equipped. The crops were growing abundantly in the Midra Kingdom, unlike in the Beirut Kingdom.

We could see that they even had enough crops to sustain feeding livestock, something that wasn't present in the Beirut Kingdom.

It was clear that the Midra Kingdom was much better off than the Beirut Kingdom.

However, that was a bit strange since the Midra Kingdom's land shouldn't be that much better. The land that they owned was in the same climate region and had the same fertility as the land in the Beirut Kingdom.

So even if they were in two different kingdoms, the plants should have grown at around the same pace. Of course, that was considering the difference in technique as well.

When asked about this, the village chief proudly said, "Because of our second prince, we put in farming reformations a few years back. Since then, our crops have been growing unlike anything that we've seen before. In just a few years, we have grown more than enough food to feed ourselves and we've been able to sell the excess for plenty of money."

So I was more and more confused by what the second prince was doing.

The fourth prince seemed like he wanted to ask a few more questions, but I grabbed his shoulder and stopped him.

When the fourth prince looked at me, I just gave him a look that seemed to be telling him to stop.

I had already gotten enough information from this and I knew that pushing further would only harm us. So I didn't want him to keep pushing or else it would arouse suspicion.

The second prince revealed a faint smile when he heard this before saying to the village chief, "How about showing them the fruit orchard that we have growing?"

The village chief quickly nodded before leading the way with a proud look on his face.

Not only did they grow their normal plants, they had even started a fruit orchard.

It had to be known that a fruit orchard was completely different from just farming normal crops. A fruit orchard was not something that could be created that easily since it took a large amount of time before it could yield fruits.

Yet the fruit orchard in this village was already filled with trees that were fruiting, showing that it had been here for a while.

This was a clear sign of just how prosperous this village, no this entire country was.

This was not a small deal, this was a very big deal.

The ministers revealed proud smiles as well when they saw this.

The reason that they had even agreed to this was because they had been told by the second prince that this was a good chance to show off the might of their kingdom with their resources.

Seeing the look on my face, they knew that I had realized just how prosperous they were, which meant that they had achieved their goals.

The second prince didn't waste any time after that as he finished the tour and led us to another place.
