Release that Witch

This time, the demon moon lasted for nearly five months. When the clouds dissipated and the sun shone again in the west, the spring had passed.

An urgent task was placed before Roland.

That is spring farming.

The war of conquering the extreme south in the evil month where other forces are struggling can save a lot of time, so that the next unified strategy can be carried out with ease, but the consumption of food is also very amazing.

Due to the lack of progress and the rapid growth of the population, the granary in the Bianbu District saw the bottom for the first time. Roland secretly thanked himself for the first thing after swallowing the long song fortress. He handed the "Golden No. 1" seed cultivated by the leaves to Pei's hands and ordered him to force the promotion of improved crops. Otherwise, this evil month is really bad.

The cement vessels that traveled between Bentham and Changge formed the lifeline of the First Army. A large number of rough-cut pancakes made from wheat were distributed to the soldiers in the frontline by means of shipping.

So Roland held the Spring Farming Conference on the second day after the celebration of the "Victory Day."

More than the Ministry of Agriculture, the entire city hall, including the second-level officials of the Changge District, and the district governor Pei Luo, the governor of the Longling Ridge, Speer, were summoned to the castle without winter. Among them, Speer Passy was directly transported by the wheat scorpion. When he landed, his entire cheek was pale, and he also had a few more resentments when he saluted him.

The position of Calvin Kant, the lord of the temporary jurisdiction of the North, was replaced by his daughter Itis and the second son Cole. I don’t know if it is an illusion. Roland always felt that there was one more pearl from the North Snow Mountain. The bright eyes, the Cole behind her, looked a lot weaker, and the set of clothing... Is it too neutral?

In any case, the representatives of the various parties in the Grey Fort have been gathered at this meeting. Apart from the unfinished east and the central region where the city hall system has not yet been established, this is basically a national congress.

He looked around the hall with satisfaction and then knocked on the table.

The crowd suddenly calmed down and bowed their eyes to the king.

"I know you must be very strange, why do you use the word combat on the banner," Roland said, pointing to the red cloth banner hanging on the wall behind him. "Because this is a war. It is not only about whether this year's strategic plan can The smooth implementation also determined the correctness of the rule of no winter! As early as the rallying of the refugees, I promised that as long as they are willing to work hard, there will never be a day of hungry."

"I have done this for the past three years. The territory has expanded from a remote border town to more than half of the gray fort. It is unreasonable that this year will not be realized. The people will not be able to eat and drink, the kingdom will be stable, so I ask everyone They all take the task of spring farming seriously, and follow the regulations and seeding manuals formulated by the Ministry of Agriculture to complete this year's cultivation.” He paused. “And from this year on, agricultural work will be carried out with special assessments, including the area of ​​reclamation, the number of farmers and agriculture. Output will be the standard to measure whether you are suitable to be in charge of the land!"

Looking at the awkward participants, Roland couldn't help but raise his lips. "It doesn't matter what you don't know about these assessments. Then Minister of Agriculture Senj will spend a day explaining them in detail. In short, if I can't meet my requirements. The standard can only show that the ability is limited and it is no longer suitable to continue to serve as the governor."

Although everyone did not say anything, it can be seen from the look that they are obviously nervous.

This is exactly what Roland wants. To eliminate the aristocratic system, apart from being able to reclaim the power of the land, one thing is that the territorial officials are no longer the lifetime hereditary system. He does not mind that these people enjoy their rights, but they are not allowed to drag down their development plans.

The agricultural assessment is only the beginning.

Roland unveiled a curtain behind him, revealing the numbers marked in uppercase red. "The other standards of the first year can be relaxed, but on the agricultural output, I ask you to reach this number!"

Everyone took a breath and sighed, "Five thousand?"

He is not surprised by this reaction. After all, according to the average level of this era, the annual harvest of ordinary cities is about 10,000, and the important towns like the old king can reach 15,000. When Bianbu Town used the "Golden No. 1" for the first time, it also received more than 7,000 baht. At that time, it was already a shocking harvest.

Of course, the actual harvests in various places are also closely related to the farmland area and the number of farmers. Different from the development of high-yield agriculture in Bianbu Town, the big city is completely dependent on the surrounding villages and towns and the savage cultivation of tens of thousands of farmers to get so much food, so he will put these two into the assessment content.

After all, the fewer the number of farmers, the more workers there are in the factory.

Roland reached out and told everyone to calm down. "In fact, when you see the test field of the Golden No. 2, you will feel that this goal is not a fantasy. After repeated testing of the leaves, the unit output of the gold No. 2 can reach the first of the two. More than double, the wheat ears in the field are enough to overwhelm the straw."

This time it was Pei’s turn to exclaim, "Why can you really get more than twice?"

Among the foreign officials, only he was most deeply touched by the amazing output of the Golden One. In the entire Evil War, the Changge District provided more than 50% of the rations for the First Army, because it appeared after the re-cultivation of Gold No.1. A lot of surplus food. Switched to the previous ordinary wheat, even those who support a city can not do.

"It's true, but the Golden No. 2 is not all flawless," Roland looked at the leaves. "The next step is the leaf of the Witch Alliance, who will tell you about its features."

After the nod of the leaves, I took a bag of ripened wheat grains and walked over to him. I began to show you the "Golden No. 2". "It is different from all the wheat you have contacted before. It can only be planted once. Every year, I have to come to the Winter City to receive new wheat. I have also greatly strengthened its root system so that it can absorb deeper nutrients in the ground, but it also makes it extremely fertile and needs to be planted with fertilization, otherwise it will only Draw three plots to take turns to fallow. And..."

Roland looked at the beginning with some restraint. Later, the more smooth the leaves, the more satisfying touch of the chin. The second gold can be said to be a new type of wheat with its own golden roots. The roots can extend to four to five meters underground and strengthen the pair. The absorption capacity of fertilizers, except for the inability to continue to multiply, has almost completely surpassed the No. 1 in other aspects.

The only shortcoming is that there is no advantage to staying in the winter city. It means that once other cities start to grow gold No. 2, they will not be able to supply the new king, and other low-yield wheat will be squeezed out of the market. This is beneficial for him to monopolize food sales and attribute this resource to the state.

Roland believes that no farmer will go back to planting ordinary wheat after trying to grow the gold number two.

As long as the new improved seeds are promoted nationwide, the shortage of food in various places can be greatly alleviated.

With food... naturally it can accommodate more people.

After all, light is a gray castle and can't satisfy him.
