Arcane Lord

But it is impossible not to increase manpower. Now basically every carpenter is accompanied by at least two apprentices, teaching by precept and deed, almost step by step.

While this may slow down their own manufacturing, the increase in numbers more than makes up for it.

"Continue to increase the number of people. I hope everyone can have their own home before winter!" Xia Duo said without hesitation.

And Layton answered without hesitation, "Yes, sir!"

Xia Duo, who had known Leiden's character for a long time, knew that he would never refuse his orders, so he couldn't help but ask one more question, "Is there any difficulty?"

"This -" Leiden hesitated, but when asked by the lord, he would not refuse to answer, let alone lie, "Sir, the brick kiln has just added more manpower, and now most of the manpower in the territory is opening up farmland, transporting and dividing Timber, if too many people are used to build houses, it may affect the development of farmland. After winter, the land is hard and difficult to work, and I am afraid that we will not be able to catch up with the spring planting tomorrow. "

really!

There is another problem here!

The autumn sowing in Savile Territory is in progress and is coming to an end. If Linshui Village works harder, they might be able to catch up with the end of the autumn sowing.

And if we miss this year's autumn sowing and next year's spring sowing, we will basically have to eat stored grain for a long time, and the stored grain comes from Savileland.

There was no trouble in transporting it. It took half a day to reach Linshui Village by going down the river from Saville Territory. The real trouble is the food itself. Since the Tower of Time Arcane Garden was suspended for a period of time, the food shipped to Conifera City needs to be replaced by stored food.

But in this era, there is not much grain storage, and no one will produce a lot of grain to pile up in the warehouse, so it will be very troublesome if we can't catch up with the autumn sowing, let alone the next spring sowing.

Even if the Arcane Garden increases production, it will be difficult to achieve. One is that the energy reserves are recovering, but they are ultimately insufficient. On the one hand, it is necessary to satisfy the food trade of Conefira City, and on the other hand, it is necessary to leave a certain margin to prevent the Savile Territory's own food harvest from failing.

Arcane Garden is also very difficult.

"How long will the food in the warehouse be enough to last?" Xia Duo asked.

"Except for children, the rest of the people in the territory have to work every day and consume a lot of food, and the adults have ordered the people to eat enough. Calculating this, this batch of food can probably be eaten until the end of the year. Of course, there are less activities in winter. The consumption will also be reduced, and it may be able to last until early spring. ”

"I understand. I will let the Saville leader continue to bring food over. As for the carpenters, the manpower will continue to increase. If there is no formal housing in winter, people will be unstable. Don't relax in this regard."

After saying that, Xia Duo abandoned Leiden and walked eastward alone, past the small tent where he usually lived, and behind him was the lord's villa that was being built.

Now that the prototype of the villa has appeared, maybe he can move into a new home after winter, although it may not be time to do any decoration at this time.

Continuing to walk east, outside the fence that has surrounded Linshui Village, a large amount of wood is piled in the open space. Here, the coming and going territorial residents carry out a second rough processing of the logs, turning them into materials suitable for carpenters to make.

As for the first rough processing, it actually means trimming off the branches, cutting off the logs and moving them back. This step is done when clearing the trees.

Going further east, this is the future farmland. Of course, in further planning, this will become Linshui Town or even part of Linshui City.

At this moment, this uneven open space is full of pits and pits, including the original undulating terrain, as well as the holes left after tree roots and rocks were cleared.

Moreover, there is a sharp contrast between the floating soil and humus on the surface of the forest and the newly turned soil underground. Various smells are mixed together, giving it a full "pastoral atmosphere"!

Currently, these "quasi-farmlands" are still in the preliminary cleaning stage, and the land must be plowed for sowing later. Xia Duo still understands the general farming process.

Of course, the early stage of cleaning is the most time-consuming and labor-intensive stage. After that, whether it is plowing, sowing, weeding, harvesting, etc., it is a relatively smooth and simple "logging" stage.

Of course, Xia Duo wanted to enter the next stage as soon as possible, and looking at the large open space in front of him that he didn't know when it would be cleared, three big words suddenly popped up in Xia Duo's mind -

"Demonstration field!"

It is indeed not an easy task to develop and maintain a territory. The people's clothing, food, housing, transportation, and even food, drink, and diarrhea all depend on the lord. This is a burden and responsibility, but it is also the source of authority.

Now that the princess is about to come for inspection, he must let the princess see his advantages and potential, more precisely the advantages and potential of the Great Xia leader. It is best to create a "Great Xia model", so as to gain the princess's attention.

Compared with other pioneers, Xia Duo's biggest advantage is that he has an entire world as a reference, and he is willing to put down his status as a spell caster and truly consider ordinary citizens.

Because in Xia Duo's eyes, ordinary citizens are actually mage seeds, and there may be future great arcanists among them!

In the magical world, longevity is not a fantasy, and immortality is not a falsehood. If there are living examples there, how can Xia Duo even think about it.

The Immortal must consider the long term. The benefits of having a great arcanist in the territory are too great. It is not only a benefit, but also a battle of ideas and paths.

Everyone has the need for self-realization and wants to realize the ideal ambitions buried deep in their hearts. Whether they are at the top or at the bottom, the difference is just the size of the ideal.

The high one leads the rise and fall of civilization and the life and death of the world; the middle one is at least a leader in a certain field; the low one may just seek food and clothing for a day.

For spell casters, the prospects are broad, and they naturally have to look up, cultivate like-minded travelers, and use this to guide the trend. This is what the time traveler should really do, instead of just being satisfied with material enjoyment.

Of course Xia Duo likes to enjoy, and who doesn't like to enjoy, but compared to material enjoyment, he prefers spiritual satisfaction.

Of course, as an adult, he is also a mage. He wants fancy clothes and delicious food, and he will not give up his ideals and ambitions. He grasps spiritual and material things with both hands and never relaxes.

"Asking the boundless earth, who is in charge of ups and downs", "counting famous figures but still looking at the present", "dare to make the sun and moon change the sky" have such mind, realm and even ability.

Although Xia Duo cannot achieve it now, he is full of infinite yearning for it and is willing to work hard for it.

Compared with great men, he is very small. If he had not seen the hope of immortality or even eternal life, Xia Duo would not even have such an idea. It is true to live a peaceful life.

But once you have the hope of immortality or even eternal life, you will naturally have more ideas, and your ideals and ambitions will also change accordingly.
