“Where is the person who sent it? Any classification statistics?” Roland asked.
“Yes, look at the bottom,” Barov pointed to the bottom of the scroll and said. “As many as 1,100 have been sent to Border Town. They were mostly farmers and they were stationed outside the city at your request.35 of them were craftsmen placed under the command of Karl. Their residence has been prepared in the New Civilization District.” Barov clumsily uttered that name. “However, is this okay, Your Majesty? I remember you originally prepared it for the witches.”
“The guards I sent to spread the rumors have not returned, and the progress has been slower than I thought. Let the craftsman and his family have a home, and we can always build more.” The entire Border Town would eventually have to be renovated in Roland's plan. Huts built with wood and mud should be replaced with brick houses and at the same time should leave room for a spacious road, unlike the current alley which can only be passed by two people.
“Ya,” Barov nodded and said, “Your Majesty, I heard there will also be cows and sheep to be sent?”
“Yes, but not now, I specifically asked them to deliver them a few days later along with the shepherds. There was a meadow between the Misty Forest and the Unpassable Mountains to the west of the city wall, it was definitely good for pastures. We need to blow up two cracks in the city walls so that people can pass through first. After all, it would only be used during Demon Moon. ”
Now that Roland had men and wealth, the boundary of the Border Town's development had temporarily disappeared. Roland was finally able to make good use of the city.
He asked the guards outside the door to enter and ordered, “Go and call Karl from the Administration Office, I think you will find him in the wooden warehouse outside the city if he is not in the mine.”
After an hour, Karl walked into the office, bowed and said, “Your Majesty.”
It had been half a year since he had met the members of the Mason Guild, and he could be considered the busiest officer since he was hired to work at the Border Town City Town Hall managing the repair of the city wall, the model house, and the city hall, and the people from the wooden shed of the temporary residential area. She is currently 35 years old with some white hair visible on both her shells, her skin slightly tanned but she looks much more energetic than when they first met.
It is true that the environment can quickly change a person. Six months ago he was a Mason Guild refugee who carefully hid his identity. Now he is an experienced project commander and manages engineering projects alone. Now he has the stature and attitude of a superior. However, what Roland admired the most was his willingness to give.
Roland smiled and nodded. “Come and sit near the table.” He handed the sketch he had just drawn to Karl and said, “Try to see. I need you to make these new things.”
“This warehouse. Uh, the bottom is made of stage. It could effectively prevent moisture problem.” Karl quickly completed the scan through the first sketch before he flipped over to the second sketch and observed for quite a while before asking. “This ... stove?”
“Indeed, you need to build more than five furnaces on the border of North Slope Mountain to burn cement and burn clay bricks. We will need open space, and considering the transport channels and the position of the yard, more furnaces will be needed once expanded to a larger scale. ”
“Iya.” He turned to the last page of the sketch and frowned. “This ... looks like a drain? No, there is a roof and a dividing wall on it. It looks like there is a pond behind it. Your Honor, I do not understand.”
Roland smiled. “This is a restroom and it will be your highest priority.”
“WC?” Karl pondered for a moment and said, “Your Majesty, where do you plan to build it? There is a toilet in your castle, and officers will handle it regularly. As for the villagers, they usually did not need this kind of thing, they would finish it directly outside their homes. So do the farmers, they just need to break away into the Redwater River and the river will throw away its feces. ”
“Uh .. Bad habits?” Karl didn't seem to understand much.
“Certainly difficult to understand for people who are used to defecating anywhere. How beautiful the world would be if a leisurely stroll did not risk stepping on the bench.” Roland quietly criticized in his heart. “By the way, you just need to build it according to the sketch, and I've marked the measurement roughly. It should be placed around the wood shed area. There should be at least four to be built, and should be built side by side. In addition to the moat in the middle, it will be built with bricks, sheds, roofs, and bulkheads outside should be built with wood as it will save a lot of cement. ”
“Your Majesty, you tried to gather them for .. that,” Karl paused for a moment because he clearly felt that he was degrading the royal family by discussing such a dirty topic in front of His Majesty. “What if they don't log in?”
“I will issue an order for them to follow. You can go ahead and arrange the staff for its implementation.”
“Then, I will follow your orders,” he nodded and said, “Your Majesty, I have one more thing to report to you.”
“Continue.”
“Because the Mason Guild was forced to disband, there were many people, like me, who chose to leave the king's city. I was thinking of writing some letters inviting the members of the Mason Guild I know for Border Town. They all have their own strength, like Lesya who is very skilled in the furnace you mentioned. Your Honor, I am not sure .. ”
“No problem at all,” Roland quickly said, “and you invited them all here and rebuilt the Mason Guild. His salary would be calculated according to what had been paid in the Mason Guild, and an experienced one could be inducted into the City Hall.”
“Thank you for your generosity.” Karl bowed with gratitude.
After the builder left, he began to devise a slave management and property abolition system.
The population of Border Town will soon reach its peak. If cities continue to rely on food imports, they will be in danger if there is a disaster or if they are cut off from business. Therefore, in addition to the industrial sector, the agricultural sector also needs to be developed quickly in order to achieve food self-sufficiency as soon as possible.
Prince Roland believed that as long as there was a promotion, the slaves would soon turn into active farmers. In addition to the seeds enhanced by the Leaf, the farmland beside the Redwater River would soon turn into a sea of golden wheat in the summer.
Regarding his request to prioritize development*****, it is for the preparation of coordination of agricultural development. After having the men, the soil, and the seeds, all that was needed was fertilizer.
Of course, Roland knew that using fertilizer for humans and animals was very troublesome. For this reason, it is necessary to clean the storage pool regularly and requires manual composting that is not as comfortable as chemical fertilizers. However, he did not know how to make chemical fertilizers so he could only replace them with natural organic fertilizers. At least human and animal fertilizers have been tested over long periods of time, and traditional fertilization can still be seen in some rural areas in the 20th century.
People in this world know very little about fertilizer, and most of them think that feces is something dirty, other than being used to make others disgusted, actually no one uses it.
