"Spring is here! Let's go see how the farm equipment is arranged?" Roland turned to Kaslo and said.
"Okay, sir." Kaslo nodded. After all, spring plowing is about to begin. If the farm tools are not distributed to the people, it will affect the spring plowing. Roland doesn't want to eat black bread anymore because he is stuck with grain. Really uncomfortable...
"Be sure to arrange farm tools for them! Tell all the blacksmiths to free up their hands to make hoes, and first make urgently needed farm tools!" Roland ordered.
"Okay!" Kaslo responded and walked out of the tent.
"Come here!" Roland called after thinking for a while.
"What are your orders, Your Highness?" A Lordaeron ranger wearing mail walked in.
"Prepare your horses! Assemble the guards and knights! Let's go to the farmland!" Roland said. He wanted to go and see if there was anything missing.
"Your Highness!" The Lordaeron ranger nodded respectfully and retreated.
…
"Your Highness, why did you remember to come here?" Renault asked Roland curiously, about 5 kilometers north of Rapid City.
"I'm still worried. I have to come and take a look. If something goes wrong with spring plowing this year... Rapid City will be doomed!" Roland sighed helplessly.
"What can go wrong? The orcs are no longer able to move south in a large scale! The scattered orc farmers can use dung forks to overturn them!" Renault smiled. The situation in Swiftstream City is now very good, and there is a lonely mountain to block it in the north. At the front, in addition to the city of Los Sanniers ruled by the White Wing King, there is a wide rushing river as a barrier in the west. The centaur lord Baldr in the east will block the enemies in the east in the Tupt Forest. The only enemy may be Came from the south, but the current strength of Rapid River City is enough to withstand the attack of ordinary enemies. As long as tens of thousands of orcs don't besiege the city, Roland can still struggle.
"We will be very hard this year! Except for the troops who must stay behind, everyone else needs to join the spring plowing. We have to race against time!" Roland sighed. Their biggest enemy now is time!
Based on four acres of land to feed one person, the total population of Swift Current City is less than 5,000. It would take 20,000 acres of land to be cultivated to provide enough food and clothing for everyone here! This does not include the area planted with vegetables! After all, the system does not provide seeds for high-yielding crops. The yield of ordinary crops in Middle-earth is really not much different from the yield per mu in ancient China!
"Hiss!" Renault took a breath. Only then did he realize that Rapid City was completely impoverished and had no foundation at all. This year's spring plowing also required hoarding food reserves for the future. This would increase the workload again. During this period, Reclaiming so much land will cost everyone their lives...
"I think we can melt weapons and make them into hoes..." Renault opened his mouth. Now the two blacksmiths can only make a few hundred hoes without stopping the furnace. This gap is simply a sinkhole!
"Nonsense!" Roland's eyes widened. His weapon melted and he used his fist to fight the enemy?
"I'm going to find Thorin. It seems I have to ask for help from the dwarves again!" Roland said helplessly. Although the Laglan troops were kind to the Irube dwarves, Roland was too embarrassed to open the door and asked for help in vain. Although the Thorin in the movie is a bit brain-dead, the Thorin in this world is still very interesting to Roland.
