C. You have not seen first hand what the real story is. Purchase enough cabbage for a few weeks for now, and also order an investigation to find out if the bureaucracy of Dungzhou is not telling the truth about their fortunes.

[Haspen]

You procure the foodstuffs for the starving people from neighbouring states, paying with the money from the royal coffers.

1 Mai Year, Autumn

The Great River have flooded this year, its volume increased by the heavy rainfall upstream and in the Western Mountains. Your own people suffer as the flooding river washed away their homes, their belongings and their children. You hear that the state of Dang in the west suffers as well. The royal officials all flock in front of your throne and bow to the ground, willing to hear how their heavenly King is going to solve this dilemma.

As for the suffering of your subjects...

A) Spend money from royal Treasury to rebuild houses and buy rations for the suffering people.
B) Cry publicly about their fate to show how much you are heartbroken to see their suffering.

As for the suffering of the Dang people...

A) Do nothing; they're not your subjects aka they're not your problem.
B) Dig in your Treasury to procure supplies for distant Dang to win their sympathies.

As for the flood itself...

A) Do nothing as nothing can be done about wrath of the River God.
B) Procure expensive jade and ceramic objects to sacrifice them to the Temple of River King, in hopes of soothing his anger with valuables.
C) Sacrifice your wife to the Temple of River King, so that she might try to soothe his fury with her service and singing.

[Haspen]

You spend the money from the Treasury to appease the distant Dang people and the River God.

Then you go to the market square of the capital city and fall to your knees, bemoaning (in truly theatrical spectacle) the fate of your poor people and the fact that you, their King, can do naught to help them.

5to6

The wave of public crying takes over your people and some are truly touched about your display of affection for your subjects! While it doesn't lessen the struggles of the homeless river-dwellers, at least people don't grumble about it.

1 Mai Year, Mid-Autumn

The Lord of Dang sends his sincere gratitude for your support as the money allowed procurement of building materials and rice for the people who lost their homes and families. As a sign of good will, he is willing to send his only daughter, Cha, to your court as your Concubine.

A) Aw yiss more ladies in my bed, sure!
B) Let's not make a harem right away, sorry!

[Taricus]

A, why not!

[Haspen]

You agree to the offer and the girl is sent to your court in two weeks by the river after it calms down.

1 Mai, End of the Year

Your royal scribe brings to you the Bamboos of Kingdom Status.

Happiness: 7
Population: 5
Economy: 1!
Army: 4

The scribe bows deeply in fear.

"My liege, by the incompetence of all your subjects, the Treasury is suffering emptiness like the one in the soul of the God of Death! Mayhaps we should therefore tax the peasants higher to sell their rice for profits?"

A) Indeed, we shall tax them higher for a year.
B) No, we will find some other way to solve the fiscal crisis.
