"You mean you want me to go to the Empress of Shu and try to get her to agree to sell grain to us?"
The middle-aged man said quickly, "Yes, Lord, with our status, it is impossible for us to meet the Empress of Shu. Finding other officials will definitely not solve this problem."
Zhao Hao thought for a moment and said, "Okay, you don't need to worry, leave this matter to me."
Hearing this, the three of them were overjoyed: "Thank you, Lord!"

Bluebird nodded: "Yes, in addition to military rations and national reserve grain, more than 60% of the grain circulating on the market in Shu Kingdom is produced by the royal treasury."
