Chapter 228: Little Selfishness

"Just order the car?" Arthur waited at the end of the town, and when he saw Lilia returning with the convoy, he felt as if he hadn't explained it clearly.

Although the quantity and quality of the twelve single-riding pack carts were a little less than I expected, it was not a big deal, after all, the first batch of food was only used to alleviate the plight of Morado's lack of food, after all, it was not to the extent that there was no food to eat at all.

Arthur didn't want to give all the food to Frick Canon in one go, he had his own plan, and Fist Demon Town was his own land, and it was even more useless at this time, if there was no food, even if the orcs left, how many homeless people could be recruited?

Don't forget, at this time, the whole south is full of land that is not cultivated by people, and I am afraid that many tenant farmers are ready to turn over and become masters, not to mention those who already have land.

When the time comes, it will be difficult to find a tenant farmer, what do you say? Tenant farmers still have debts, and they can't pay them off and can't get out of the land? If you see this alone, you will be too narrow-minded.

If you don't have any money, won't you borrow again? The aristocracy does not borrow, there are merchants, and the merchants do not borrow and the yeoman farmers, everyone knows that the price of grain next year will definitely be higher than in previous years, as long as they can farm, they will definitely not lose.

Land Arthur has, but people, Arthur really doesn't have it, relying on the young devil to plow the land? Even if Arthur squeezes Aragorn to the limit, he can summon another 40 young demons for him in the spring, even if this big demon really cooperates.

What can you do with 80 young devils? Even if the young devil is good enough to be physically strong, he is quite smart, but after all, he is not a real farmer, and he has to teach him to start farming, so I am afraid that when he can really work on his own, he will have already delayed the spring plowing period.

As for the barbarians? Well, Arthur really hasn't forgotten them, but the barbarians haven't reached the era of agricultural civilization at all, and they go into the mountains to hunt and wave their big thick arms to cut trees and cut trees, that's a good hand, farming? What is that?

With this IQ, Arthur compared the gap between the young devil and the barbarian, and suddenly found that he still taught the young devil with less effort. At least the young devils can communicate in demonic language, unlike the barbarians, who have to rely on this little female dragon, the 'translator' who thinks about candy all day long.

"Food is very abundant, when spring comes. If there is food, there will be labor, and even Morado can't give too much food at once, and it is enough to keep the city undisturbed and no one starves to death. Arthur pondered the situation and made this seemingly cold decision.

When spring begins, the yeoman farmers and farmers of Morado will never give their rations and seeds to these white eaters.

And these outcasts. Some of them may return to the countryside, dig up the food they have hidden, and continue to go back to their homes.

But some people, especially the refugees who escaped from Fist Town, really don't have food, and if Morado can give them food, maybe they will replace the old tenant farmers and become the new servants of the Kannon family.

But Arthur doesn't plan to leave so many benefits for the Canon family, and there is no way who will tell him that he is short of people!

Before the start of spring, Arthur would have Aschuk announce it to the townspeople. The food and gold coins sent by his friends in the Middle Kingdom, following him, the fist demon not only had enough food to eat, but also free seeds to use.

Arthur believed that with this alone, it would be okay to pull a third out of Morado's refugees.

With a few hundred of them, combined with his team of goblin laborers and young demons, he should be able to barely cope with next year's farming.

"It's a pity that those 150 acres of land can only be left for later reclamation." Arthur was a little sorry, after all, he had spent so much energy and money in the early stage, especially Uncle Vinnock. I even bought a pack horse and invested so much money to go down.

Of course, Arthur will not let his uncle's money be wasted, at least the land that has been cleared, and he will still arrange to plant something. And in Fist Demon Town, Vic and Serena will also be left with a large enough homesteaders of land as compensation.

"Brother, are you saying that Sister Serena and Vic are going to separate families and come to Fist Demon Town?" Lilia listened to Arthur's muttering and couldn't help but interject.

The succubus has been learning human culture from Arthur and the half-elves for a long time, and of course they understand the meaning of separation, but Serena and Vic are still so young. Is it too early to leave your parents?

"Of course, it's not really leaving, but nominally becoming another family, otherwise according to the rules of the kingdom, a yeoman farmer can't own land in the territory of the two lords, not only them, but even you have to split up with me!" Arthur laughed, this practice can be regarded as taking advantage of the loopholes stipulated by the kingdom, but no one cares, after all, the land of self-cultivated farming has been passed on to the eldest son.

Ade doesn't know how he's doing in Berry City right now, and he probably can't think of his good brother, so he forcibly let him inherit the family's land.

As the new lord, Ashok was going to re-recruit yeoman farmers who could protect the land, although they were not formal professionals, but Serena and Vic, who were already apprentices in magic, barely met the recruitment requirements.

Of course, Arthur gave the two of them land, but he didn't plan to let the two of them become farmers, and even Arthur's own ideal was to create agricultural automation, creating a product of different agricultural magic, so that people would no longer be bothered by food as when he was a child.

Rather than simply being a farmer, whether it's Serena or Vic, they will eventually have to follow the path of magic under Arthur's guidance.

When Serena has a certain foundation, she will learn about medicine and basic alchemy with the half-elf, a potion grandmaster.

And Vic was trained by Arthur as a wizard, as a replacement for his incompetent disciple, and became the successor of the great wizard of destruction, Dawus.

Giving his younger brothers and sisters to a legendary-level mage, and cultivating a great wizard who is more powerful than the legendary-level, can be regarded as Arthur's own selfishness.

"Lord Arthur, are you really not going back? You know, there are still orcs roaming outside, and I'm afraid you're in danger here. ”

The pack cart left with the food, but the guards sincerely invited Arthur back to Morado, where he knew the reason why Arthur did not return, and was simply worried that Arthur was still in danger.

"No, this bit of food is not enough for Morado to survive the crisis, I plan to look for an opportunity to grab some food and come back, you go back and say hello to Lord Frick and tell him that everything will be left to me." Arthur patted his chest and took everything.

The captain of the guard left, Arthur turned around and changed his appearance, yes, it was not Arthur who was talking to the captain of the guard just now, but Lilia, a succubus in disguise. (To be continued.) )
