章 578: Chapter 151, The Advancing French

Time flies, and before we know it, winter has come again.

Based on Franz's many years of experience, he could judge that this was a warm winter. Usually, by this time of year, Glockna Mountain would already be covered in snow, but this year, there was not only an absence of snow but also very little rain.

A warm winter combined with drought almost certainly announced a decrease in agricultural output for the coming year. Austria, being a major industrial nation, was also an agricultural powerhouse, with agriculture occupying an important position in the national economy.

The Vienna Government had always placed great importance on agricultural production. After years of effort, the country's agricultural infrastructure had improved, leading to a well-developed disaster response system.

It was unusual for Franz to intervene unless there was a large-scale disaster affecting the whole country. The situation now caught his attention primarily because it occurred in Vienna.
