Industrial revolution starting with the undead
Towards an industrial revolution
I'm going to solve the Territory's food problem first.
Humans cannot stand without what they eat, as some say they cannot fight when they are hungry. It is the current challenge to solve that by using Skeleton as a workforce somehow. Using skeletons and cattle skeletons would considerably increase the efficiency of work on agricultural land.
As a result, we also reach out to fallow land and production rises. If production goes up, tax revenues will go up, and more food will remain in the hands of the inhabitants. And if I buy out the surplus, there will be gold in the hands of the rural inhabitants.
In other words, the inhabitants can get some money without starving.
And here's the problem.
If the food problem is solved, that doesn't mean it's over. I have to do something to make my territory richer. That would be my job as a lord.
"If you can set up a cotton production system, it will help you develop your territory in the future."
"Cotton...? But that's what I eat..."
"I'll let you buy the cotton you made. Of course, let's make a purchase with the market price."
"But..."
Anxiously, Sophia casts a shadow on her expression.
I guess they didn't have the option of 'making something they couldn't eat' until now, when they were only peasants. Because if we don't make food, the countryside can't even cross the winter. It is not uncommon in the countryside to have no money to go over the winter and sell the last child to a slave trader.
And cotton, you can't eat it yourself. What's in the cotton is the fiber, the material for spinning and threading. It is baked where it is boiled, and it is not grocery at all.
"The... Lord"
"Oh."
"Whether the village of Yarb is suitable for the production of cotton…"
"Around that, too, we're going to need future verification. First, to some extent, I would like cotton to be produced on some of the fallow land. Let's get some other seeds. If we know what production is suitable, we want to establish a production system based mainly on it."
"Ha..."
I don't know, Sophia tilting her neck.
And Chris, next to me, was tilting his neck, especially not saying anything. What I can feel from that eye is "I'm doing something nasty".
Anyway.
"Well, you, with Skeleton, will revive the fallow lands of Yarb's village first. I'll prepare the food for you. It reaches the village of Yarb after this"
"Well, that's, I appreciate it...... really, are we good?
"Oh. This is one edge too."
Nanny and Sophia snort at my words.
And the two girls behind them, Anne and Teeda, snorted reluctantly.
"Then I'll send you to Yarb's village. Get in."
"Yes!
The village of Yarb is now a place full of rough fields.
The fields, where no one lived and was not cared for by anyone, are rough all you want, and it would be difficult to make them a production base right there.
But as long as there are skeletons working there on insomnia breaks, we can quickly put in place a production system.
If you adapt well and can produce cotton in the village of Yarb.
It must be a mountain of treasure for us, for our territory...
Guided by the Sophias, they were brought down in the village of Yarb.
As expected, it was a very uninhabitable environment with all the rough all-you-can-do fields and houses that were still about to collapse. The Sofias seemed very sad for some reason when they said it was their first home in a long time. After all, seeing a changed hometown is something that comes to mind.
And quickly, I got the skeletons to start their activities. Each had a long sword, but there were still a few farm tools that the former villagers would have left behind, so it was used as a form of making the rough fields open first.
As a result, me and Chris followed Yarb's village, making sure the skeletons obeyed Sophia's orders. Promise me you'll bring the groceries and seeds again later.
"Huh... I'm tired"
"Keep it up, can you?
"No, I'm going to Bath's village once. Sophia and the others have to give us food to the extent that we can raise it for a few days."
I'm also afraid to have it divided into Bath villages, but I can't shake a sleeve without it. Besides, I don't think I would eat that much because I have three women.
"Back, missed"
"Well, I left all the skeletons behind."
To Chris' words, shrug his shoulders.
I left everything but skeleton hose in the village of Yarb. Including cow skeletons.
By the way, Sophia's reaction was also, "If you had a cow, it would be very helpful to carry the load or something". Apparently I just didn't know that cattle are a necessity in the countryside. Good thing I made a cow skeleton by mistake. I'm in the mansion for about ten more, so I'll take them to Bath's village and Yarb's again tomorrow.
But the Sophias were unexpected pickups when they were just going to check Skeleton's ability to fight. If you are from an unfamiliar and doomed village and have the desire to regenerate that village if you can, the abandoned village will also be revived as one village.
The only problem was the workforce.
"I'll have to make skeletons again when I get back to the mansion."
"Do you do it again?
"Oh. Ten more bodies in Bath's village and ten more in Yarb's village if possible... and because we have to provide skeletons as a matter of priority to the two remaining villages that are victims of banditry"
"Thank you, I'll catch you again."
"It's okay that I'm tired. If the territory develops."
The only thing I use to make skeletons is my magic.
And I can supply as much magic as I want from Chris, as much bone as I want. I mean, if only I could stand it, I could make an infinite number of skeletons.
Every time I make ten bodies, they attack me, as long as I endure uninterrupted nausea, headaches and even breathlessness. It's a flash anyway.
"Sashima"
"Oh."
"Murray, don't"
……
With worrying eyes, look at me, Chris.
Well, I do wonder if it might seem a little impossible from the side.
Especially since from Chris, who's in charge of restoring my magic, he's looking at me with a dying magic sickness right next to him.
Something makes me sorry to think so.
"Oh... Chris, it's okay"
"But"
Pomp, and slap Chris on the head.
For what I'm talking about, I look like a normal girl. Not very much, but it won't look like an undead.
"I'm a lord."
"Ryosho"
"The lord has to cut himself for the people. For the development of the territory, for the happiness of the inhabitants. You have to put that first. So."
Eh, and make Chris smile at it with all his might.
I'm feeling a little incapable, but still a little, to reassure you.
"So I have to defend my territory even if I die. That's what the lord does."
"Your Highness..."
Even my father has done everything in his power for the development of his territory by shredding himself and his soul.
And I have the technology to develop my territory - necromancy.
"All right, mister."
"Do you understand?"
"Yes, Chris, please."
Yeah, and nodding Chris.
I feel somewhat overwhelmed with motivation, with the same faceless expression. Around a fist I gripped a long time.
"I'll cheer you up."
……
Um.
I'm so glad Chris feels that way.
"... stop"
"Why?"
"Anything."
I'm a lord.
Exactly, I don't even think I'm going to develop the territory even if it's undead.
