The arrival of Flavio and his family in the province of Insulae Canibalium was quite modest but very beautiful, the Gamma legion performed some dances and played some songs with Mariachi costumes.
Then the priestess of the province was in charge of presenting the children of the choir who delighted Flavio and all those present with a beautiful melody.
When all this was over Flavio and his family proceeded to meet Azalea who was with Artimer the mayor of Magna Caribe.
Flavio greeted Azalea and the mayor of Magna Caribe Artimer, they talked for a while about some unimportant things for a short time they said goodbye because they would speak more calmly at the banquet they organized for them at night.
Flavio and his family went to his palace, the summer castle of the imperial family, despite not being completely built the main hall and some rooms are already ready to be used.
When they arrived Hellena was glad because the whole castle was painted with the Mayan blue that she likes so much, she also had Marble and Jade ornaments that made it look even more beautiful, even the children loved the beautiful view of their home these weeks.
The interior was lined with marble brought from Equorum Insulae the capital of the province of Insulae Canibalium, Flavio looked at the Interior and sighed this home was more comfortable than his palace in Origin Civitatem, he had to work hard to improve his own home.
Time passed quickly while reviewing the construction process and the state of the place, the Praetorian guard on his part occupied the castle wall to safeguard the protection of the imperial family.
Before going to the banquet Flavio and Hellena dressed in elegant clothes, for Hellena a beautiful Mayan blue dress which showed her small stomach as pregnant, when Flavio looked at his wife so beautiful I do not hesitate to sit and place his ear on his stomach to try to listen to the baby.
Hellena looking at her husband could only shake his head "You know it takes the baby at least a few months to start kicking in the belly"
Flavio with his eyes closed said "No matter love, you can be sure that I will continue to do so until I can feel his kicks"
The children stayed with Lilith and Kitsuné while they went to the municipal palace where the banquet would be, when they arrived they were received by the deputies
The banquet was quite pleasant for Flavio because he found a vegetable that he did not intend to see, in one of the meals that served him he could notice a quite familiar flavor that brought a bit of nostalgia to the palate.
Flavio pointed to a waiter "You can bring me the vegetable they used to prepare this mash"
The waiter immediately went to the kitchen where he brought a potato, Flavio when he saw her, I do not hesitate to laugh almost like a madman, before he was more afraid of those present Hellena elbowed him in his side to wake up his happiness.
"Sorry about that but the situation warrants it. I want to know if anyone can tell me who discovered this vegetable," Flavio said as he pointed to the potato in his hand.
Artimer raised his arm "We found that plant in some areas where there were Caribbean settlements because it was not in the books of strategic plants we did not report the discovery, I hope your imperial highness can forgive our boldness"
Flavio could only let out a small laugh "Nobody will receive punishment because it is no fault that it is not in the strategic plants because I never thought it could be found in this place.
Let me explain why this plant can save the empire in the future and be a great source of food, I do not know the name given to it by the Caribs but I call it potato, the ability to withstand cold environments is surprising but its main quality is that It is a tuber and can also be grown with seeds.
The reason why it is so important is that it can be sown and give a large amount of food in each harvest, but just like everything has a small problem, it is not only possible to sow potato as a food source, this is because if you suffer a disease can end the harvest and cause a great famine.
Starting today it is forbidden to consume potato until we have a sustainable planting, I do not know how long it takes to reach the south of the continent and find Dad again so it is important to take care of the few samples we have, I hope you understand my decision.
Of course, they will receive compensation for every kilo of potato they harvest, they will receive a coupon that if they meet a certain candidate they can exchange them for animals or Denars.
Also, like the Province of Americae Centralis, they will receive an award for finding this strategic food, remember that whatever is eaten, report it to the Ministry of Environmental Care.
Let's continue with the banquet, ladies, and gentlemen, I think you will be hungry and I exceeded my talk. "
Everyone present let out a little laugh and continued with the meal, Azalea was glad that Flavio had found a new vegetable and that it was strategic, the only thing that bothered him was that he did not know he had to report any food discovery but that may be ignored.
After the banquet everyone present said goodbye, leaving Flavio and Hellena alone with Azalea and Artimer so they changed the location to a room for coffee and talk in peace.
Flavio drinking a coffee said, "Very well Artimer heard that you had a great suggestion about the use of the zip code, it surprised me when I read it but I would like you to explain it yourself"...
