Chapter Seventy-Five, Big Fat

Early the next morning, the people began to measure the land. The kingdom has a clear rule on the size of the territory, and the area of the noble domain is different according to different natural conditions.

An ordinary barony, roughly between 120 and 300 square kilometers. Under special circumstances, there will also be thousands of square kilometers of giant Macs, or tiny territories of the Land of Projectiles.

Generally speaking, the plains with fertile land and easy irrigation are relatively small in the area of commercial prosperity on the main transportation routes.

In mountainous areas where cultivation is not easy, irrigation is difficult, and transportation is inconvenient, the territory area is larger. The Northlands, which are threatened by orcs, also have a slightly larger territory.

If it is a desert area, only the area of the oasis is counted, and the desert is a bonus, so every Desert Lord's territory is a giant.

The southeastern provinces were dominated by fertile plains, and the nobles' territories were usually small.

Theoretically, Hudson's hilly area, between plains and mountains, could be taken care of in terms of area, but not too much.

It's just that thanks to the last stubbornness of the nobles of the southeastern provinces, they insist that these small dirt bags are mountains, so they have become mountains.

Those who are responsible for land measurement are relatives and friends, and in terms of specific operations, it is inevitable to be coarse.

Undeveloped land, which is not marked on the map, obviously cannot be counted, and is directly ignored by everyone.

Under Hudson's soft grinding and hard bubbles, plus gold coin public relations, the mining area began to extend from the south, and the top grid of 300 square kilometers of territory was not discounted at all.

The town of Maple Leaf to the north of the mining area was enclosed by a third, and the plain area suitable for cultivation alone was close to fifty square kilometers, and the three hill knights next to it were deliberately bypassed by Hudson.

made the measurement team numb. If it weren't for the clear hint above, the local nobility could be taken care of as much as possible, and such a territorial division would be absolutely non-negotiable.

If someone complains, it is definitely a check. 100% illegal operation, without quibbling.

"Hudson, that's too much, isn't it? You're making it difficult for us, in case someone gets into trouble......"

Baron Sicolari said in embarrassment. They came to dig pits and bury mines for a group of fiefdom nobles, but they didn't dig pits and bury mines for themselves.

Just because there are no problems now does not mean that there will be no problems in the future. Once the lid is lifted, it is a political stain on them.

"Uncle Sicolari, things can't just be taken at face value. From the mining area to Maple Town, most of the middle is undeveloped mountain forest.

Actually, my territory is also the land of Maple Leaf Town, and the enclave of the mining area. This part in the middle only records a long and narrow path, and the rest can be completely excluded from the area.

In this way, the area of the registered territory is more than 100 square kilometers. It is completely in line with the rules of the kingdom, and no one can find fault with it.

If I don't divide it like this, I won't have enough territory! Can't you let me annex the three nearby knights, right?

Now these areas are all owned by the Lord, and it is not in accordance with the rules to let them move places. ”

Hudson said meaningfully.

Last night's banquet was not in vain, and through small talk Hudson learned that many enclaves were born in this territorial division.

Many areas can be connected together, but in the end, they are deliberately separated by artificially demarcated boundary lines.

Hudson was unaffected, on the one hand the territory was at the southernmost point, and on the other hand it was the result of PR.

Perhaps these hidden dangers can be solved by land exchange in the future, but human nature is greedy, and it will not satisfy both parties in the end.

Originally, there was a lot of estrangement between the northern nobles and the local nobles, and now it involves territorial friction, and the relationship between neighbors is definitely not good.

Watching Hudson compare on the map, the original 300 square kilometers of territory instantly shrank by one-third on paper, and everyone's faces suddenly improved a lot.

As long as you can't find fault with the surface, the rest of the things don't matter. As for whether there will be people who will challenge Baron Hudson on the issue of unclear ownership in the future, it has nothing to do with them.

In the final analysis, the world still has to speak with strength. Moreover, even if anyone wanted to compete with Hudson for the vast Salaam Mountains, they would have to reach it.

The area directly bordering is separated by Maple Leaf Town and the three knights. Unless one of the knights is annexed, the tentacles will not be able to reach out.

Although the Alpha Kingdom is not prosperous in its national fortunes, its basic order is still guaranteed. Under the rule system, it is not so simple to annex the territory of your neighbors.

Except for the five major families in Northern Xinjiang, who completed the great annexation by killing people with a knife, the rest of the kingdom maintained a balance. If you want to expand your territory, every step is difficult.

After a rough framework is negotiated, the specific details do not need to be clarified. was originally responsible for digging the pit, so naturally he would not make all the details clear.

After sending everyone away, standing by the creek and looking at Maple Leaf Town a few miles away, Hudson sighed to himself.

This wave is certainly taking advantage of a big advantage, but unfortunately the bureaucrats of the Governor's Mansion are still a little disciplined and can't let him take down the Maple Leaf Town Administration.

Once an opportunity is missed, there will be no more. There is no ready-made one to pick up, and building a large town on your own is a big expense.

resisted the temptation and washed a cold water face with the stream. Hudson, who calmed down, became more and more ugly.

The interests are moving, and I originally thought that I could deal with it properly if I saw through Earl Pierce's plan, but I couldn't help but jump into the pit.

The area of land is limited, and the more Hudson takes, the less someone is destined to take. It can be imagined that the lord who will be divided into Maple Leaf Town in the future will be in his heart--!

It was supposed to be a rich town, but a third of it was poached. If only there was compensation somewhere else, if not, you would have to be.

Given another chance to choose, Hudson will still not relent. The plain of more than 50 square kilometers is also more than 60,000 acres of fertile land according to the calculation of eighty percent of the cultivated land.

It is all ready-made cooked land, and as long as the serfs are cleared of the weeds, they can be restored. Far more economically valuable than clearing land in hilly areas.

In accordance with the cultivation habits of the southeastern provinces, the system of "ploughing one plough and two rests" has been implemented, and more than 20,000 mu of fertile land has been produced every year.

The southeastern provinces have fertile land, and the yield of 150 pounds per mu of rye is 3 million pounds.

After deducting the cost of farming, the daily consumption of serfs, and tithes, it is not a big problem for the lord to account for forty percent of the income.

It can be said that as long as there is no war and no natural disasters, the small life of every noble lord in the southeastern province is very nourishing.

As long as this fertile plain is managed, most of the food problems in the territory will be solved. In the future, even if there is a large population explosion, it can be solved by constantly reclaiming wasteland.

Such a big piece of fat was put to his mouth, and Hudson couldn't refuse at all.

Mo said that he offended a nobleman in northern Xinjiang, even if he directly fought a battle, he would not give in.

It can be said that as long as the interests are in place, there is no principle that cannot be broken. If there is, it is not giving enough.
