If I let you farm, will you become the emperor of the empire?

Don't overestimate the consciousness of those idiots.

Even the free lunch every day can't awaken their enthusiasm.

The big stick is necessary.

Roman changed his words and said, "Aaron, you train all the guards for three hours every day."

Aaron frowned slightly. He had never been an instructor and didn't know whether he should use the standards of a knight to train the guards.

He also saw the situation on the mountain yesterday.

These guards are undisciplined and have no form. If they are not trained, it is difficult for them to play their due role.

"Okay!" Aaron agreed immediately.

If you don't know how to train, ask Roman.

Green didn't envy anything, and his personality was not suitable for being an instructor.

"In addition, tell them that the guards will get 2 copper coins, 10 kilograms of wheat, 10 kilograms of grains, and 2 kilograms of meat every month in the future..."

"Ah? Pay them wages?" Moore was a little confused at first.

Even if they were paid, it would be too little to support them.

But he suddenly widened his eyes: "Every month?"

That treatment is too outrageous!

Guards are conscripts. Unless they are fighting, they don't get paid. Giving them some compensation in kind is already a kindness!

Roman tilted his head slightly: "Yes, it will be paid every month, but I have standards for them. If they don't meet the standards I set, then I will kick him out of the guard team. If there are guards with good performance, I will also reward them extra."

"By the way, include the hunters in the guard team. I appoint Dota as the captain of all guards. You ask him to go down the mountain as soon as possible..."

After explaining these things clearly, Moore's handkerchief was wet. He immediately notified everyone what Roman had just said.

Seth looked at Roman and said, "You still haven't solved the problem of bankruptcy in winter."

The salary of the steward was cut, and the salary of the guards was increased. In fact, the total expenditure did not decrease much.

Because the management brought by Roman is the bulk of the financial expenditure-Aaron and Green's annual salary are calculated in gold coins.

Roman said confidently, "I know about this. I will solve this problem before the end of spring."

Seth saw that Roman always had this attitude, and he was hesitant to speak.

He didn't know where Roman got his confidence from.

He watched Roman grow up. Even though the latter's operation was too amazing in the current era, he couldn't help but have a little expectation of Roman in his heart.

"I hope so. And...you shouldn't always make yourself so embarrassed. There is mud on your legs and pants, your collar is messy, and the buttons of your shirt should be buttoned. You are too inelegant and too outrageous."

Roman was speechless watching Seth touching him.

He adjusted his collar, buttoned his clothes, and patted the dirt.

He thought it was unnecessary.

But Seth obviously didn't think so.

He made Roman very neat and clean, which made Roman always feel that Seth had some kind of obsessive-compulsive disorder and had to do everything in an orderly manner.

After the rigid deacon left, Roman went to the blacksmith shop again and brought out a heavy plow that they had just forged this morning.

Then Roman found fifty farmers with rich farming experience and a steward, and took them to the land he had marked out this morning.

At the edge of the field, Roman first demonstrated to everyone how to use the heavy plow and its effect.

The operation of the plow is very simple and you can learn it at a glance. Roman plowed a short distance.

As a lord, his majesty is extremely high. He demonstrated it in person. Not to mention the effect of plowing the land, this attitude alone shocked the farmers, and they found that Roman's action of holding the plow was quite skillful...

Who is the farmer after all?

What is even more shocking is the effect of plowing.

"Oh! The lord's plow is so wide and big that you don't even need to step on it..."

"It's coming out, it's coming out, the stone is coming out!"

"Tree roots as thick as arms are coming out!"

"The mud is also lifted up, it's black soil!"

The farmer exclaimed in a low voice, his eyes were extremely eager and excited.

No one knows the role of cultivated land better than them.

This is one of the very few effective means of increasing grain production in this era.

If seeds are sprinkled on uncultivated land, it is lucky to guarantee a basic harvest of one planting and two harvests. More often, there is no harvest, so they rely heavily on iron farm tools for farming.

The light plow has a very limited depth and width. Farmers using light plows have to step on it to achieve the desired effect of plowing. Even so, they can only achieve shallow plowing, which is not suitable for the soil structure of this land.

Of course, it is useless to tell these planting knowledge to farmers with shallow knowledge. They only care about the explosive farming effect.

They had never been educated, nor had they been brainwashed by the church. They didn't know that the church had a doctrine that prohibited change. Even if they knew, they would not abide by it. The gods were just a prayer object for them when they were poor.

What doctrine? What doctrine? Can it make more food grow in the land?

Because of the lord's tough orders, they had to do things that had nothing to do with farming.

In the past two or three days, although they could have a free and sumptuous lunch at noon, the price was a waste of time and energy.

They didn't know what picking up manure meant, nor did they know what Roman was going to do. They only knew that the work in the field would be delayed, and the plowing time would be delayed for two or three days.

Most farmers were getting increasingly anxious.

If they didn't plant the land, it meant that they would most likely get nothing this year and their families would starve to death.

They showed enough docility, but the lord still had no intention of giving them land, so they had to secretly plant something at night.

If Roman delayed for another two days and still didn't let them plant the land, the accumulated emotions of these farmers would most likely burst out, causing large-scale unrest.

And today, seeing Roman plowing the land with a new plow, the anxiety of these people suddenly eased.

In any case, this is a good development.

The lord also knew that they would have to plow the land next, and he would not stop them again.

The appearance of the new plow also gave them some confidence in their future farming plans. The land plowed with this plow would definitely yield a lot of grain.

Although it took a lot of time, they could still plant some grain in a hurry if they raced against time, so as not to end up with nothing.

Roman called them over and said to them: "Your next task is to deeply plow all the land I have fenced off."

Currently, only four heavy plows have been produced, which is obviously not enough for fifty farmers.

Theoretically, eight or ten people are enough.

However, they not only have to plow the land, but also pick up stones, tree roots, weeds, etc. that are turned up from the ground, which requires manpower.

Don't underestimate this workload. When Roman was plowing the land in the morning, he even encountered a tree stump buried underground. He took a lot of effort to pull the stump out of the ground, and the broken tree roots were still buried underground.
