Fantasy Lord: Starting with the Pioneer Knight

Thor didn't know that his father had once again prepared a generous gift for him, and even gave him a great knight as support this time. After bidding farewell to Lajos Assad, he devoted all his attention to it again The territory is under construction.

Two wars ended.

external threats.

At least the surrounding threats to expand territory can be said to have been completely resolved.

Extremely fast.

Baron Valmy and Baron Graton sent over their "protons" respectively, and there were no longer any problems in the entire territory.

And this way.

Naturally, he can devote himself to construction.

The first step in territory construction is naturally to open up wasteland.

The scope of the Maine River Valley is large enough. It not only has three noble lords and seven pioneer lords. Strictly speaking, there are also five pioneer lords including the Emerson family. However, they are still some distance away from the Maine River Valley. distance.

The main reason why so many pioneering lords gathered here, even enough to give birth to three noble lords, is that the scope of the Maine River Valley extending to the north is extremely empty. Under the impact of the Maine River, a valley was formed on it. The extremely large Jizi Bay has flat terrain and good soil quality, which is very suitable for large-scale farming. The closer to the Maine River, the more fertile the land.

The long-term accumulation of sediment has formed a plain most suitable for farming.

If it weren't for the threat of floods, I'm afraid this area would be enough to give birth to several noble lords again.

Thor wants to reclaim a large amount of wasteland, and the first step is to solve the water shortage in this area.

Thor naturally had an idea about this.

The best way is undoubtedly to build a reservoir.

That's right, it's the reservoir.

Reservoirs, in Thor's previous life, generally existed as "water conservancy projects that retain flood water and regulate water flow. They can be used for irrigation, power generation, flood control and fish farming."

Naturally, it is impossible to use it for power generation in this era, but it is possible to use the reservoir capacity to store floods, reduce the peak flow into the downstream river, and achieve the purpose of reducing flood disasters. At the same time, fisheries can also be carried out to a certain extent, forming a new economic output.

Haven't done it before.

That's because the upper reaches are the territories of Baron Valmy and Baron Graton, and he also lacks manpower.

Of course it's not a problem at the moment.

So Thor quickly arranged for thousands of slaves and dozens of knights to lead the team, and at the same time mobilized the power of Baron Valmy and Baron Graton to start building reservoirs throughout the upper reaches of the Maine Valley.

A large number of people gathered.

The vast construction began immediately.

In this regard, Baron Valmy and Baron Graton were somewhat reluctant.

But under the constraints of the contract, they could only hold their noses and admit it.

While the reservoir was being constructed.

A large amount of wasteland where Eagle Ridge is located downstream is also beginning to be opened up.

There is still more than half a year before the next flood period. With the power of the extraordinary world, the entire reservoir can be completed in more than half a year at most, and there is no need for floods. Naturally, it can be reclaimed with confidence.

And in the midst of reclamation.

The first batch of grain was harvested immediately.

The retting technology from the previous life has obviously played a lot of roles in this world.

The large amount of land cultivated in the early days brought a bumper harvest of wheat.

A large number of slaves and free people looked excitedly at the plump wheat on their land, and their expressions couldn't help but be excited.

"Oh my God, this is unbelievable."

"Three hundred pounds, there are actually three hundred pounds!"

"The Goddess of Life bless you!"

"Lord, you are so powerful!"

On the land, slaves were harvested one by one, and the eyes of the free people were shining with excitement.

Because the wheat harvest far exceeded their imagination.

In their memory, the output of one acre of land was only about 200 pounds even when the harvest was good, but now the output of one acre of land had reached 300 pounds, nearly double the amount, which simply made them incredible.

Many people even feel that they are in a dream.

In the castle.

"Three hundred pounds?"

Frowning him slightly, Thor couldn't help but sigh.

He has tried his best to transfer some of the technologies from his previous life, but the world is different after all, and without modern fertilizers, the wheat yield will never be able to reach the level of his previous life.

Not even a tenth.

In some areas in the north in previous lives, the wheat yield per mu could reach about 1,100 kilograms, while even in the south it was generally between 800 and 1,000 kilograms.

The acres in this world are almost twice as big as those in the previous life, and the pounds are about the same as one pound in the previous life.

In other words, the yield per acre here is only 150 kilograms, which can be said to be pitiful.

"Sir, this is already a very high output."

"In Frost Moon Province, our family only has two hundred pounds!"

"Sometimes it's not even a hundred and fifty pounds!"

Renn was still excited and looked at Thor with eyes full of reverence.

"Okay, you go down and make arrangements first. In addition, the food will be dried and stored as soon as possible."

Thor did not continue to struggle, but quickly gave instructions.

The arrival of the harvest now means that he has a large amount of food stored in the warehouse. Food is very precious in the Northland Province.

During this period of time, it was not the slaves that he spent the most on. Even if the slaves spent a lot of gold coins, it was nothing compared to the constant consumption of food.

If this batch of grain has not been harvested yet, he will have to consider going to buy grain again.

Although he has a steady supply of gold coins from the business established by Lajos.

But these gold coins may not be able to withstand it continuously.

With this batch of harvests now, there is no need to be so anxious.

He can continue to develop slowly.

Although the grain output is not satisfactory, he has cultivated a lot of fields before, and he has cultivated some more in the future. It can be expected that there will be a steady flow of output in the future.

It has become barely self-sufficient.

"It seems that we still have to find ways to increase food production as much as possible."

"In this world, it seems that elves can do it!"

Thor murmured to himself, and couldn't help but think of some of the information he had obtained from reading the books before.

Compared to humans, elves are undoubtedly the darlings of heaven and earth, possessing the ability to make plants grow rapidly and transform quickly.

If he wants to continue to provide output, it is obviously impossible to rely on some of the methods he used in his previous life. The world is different after all, and having such an effect is already the limit.

If you want to continue to improve, you have to rely on the methods of this world.

When thinking of elves, Thor couldn't help but think of that half-elf girl.

But he couldn't be sure whether the half-elf girl also had this effect. After all, she was just a half-elf, not an elf.

And the other party didn't completely surrender.
