Michel looked at the greatly frightened villagers, laughed, and patted the Bass cow's butt. The Bass cow seemed a little dissatisfied, turned back and gave a moo.
"You have also seen that this is a tool invented by the great Master Luther. It is called a "plow". When used in conjunction with oxen, you can plow the fields. And the kind Master Luther distributed five Bass oxen to us, which means
I believe you also know what I am wearing."
Michel smiled like a child, full of joy.
The villagers reacted one after another, and their eyes lit up. They gathered around Basi Niu, and it seemed that what they saw was not a cow, but a golden bull.
A cow that shines with gold.
"I know that our spring plowing this year will be extremely easy when we see Bass cows plowing the fields with ease. Great Master Luther and the great Pompeii family. I am lucky to grow in the territory of the Pompeii family."
Some villagers said enthusiastically.
"Shut up, you are so stupid. This cow saves our energy, and we can spare more energy to take care of the fields. Next year we will start to cut down the forest and build more farmland. I need a family that can
The farmland can be doubled, no, tripled."
Some villagers took a longer view and laughed at the villagers who had spoken before, and spoke in a more enthusiastic tone.
"That's right. With more fields and more output, our children will grow stronger, and there is no problem even having more. We will become richer and richer. We will no longer have to worry about having too many children.
There are too many, and when we can no longer feed them, we have no choice but to throw away the thin children."
Some villagers said with tears.
That's right.
This is a very primitive world. If a family has too many children and they don't have enough to eat, parents will ruthlessly throw away the thin children and raise more robust children.
The plow invented by Luther is absolutely significant in terms of significance.
"Don't be too happy. The Bass cow is a very precious breed of cattle. They need to eat special rations. If we want it to be useful, we must first learn to take care of it. And we need to open up more farmland. Just these five animals.
The Bass cattle are not enough. After this autumn harvest, we will plead with Master Luther to raise our own money to buy more cattle. We must be allowed to cultivate twice as much land next year as this year."
Michel used his prestige as the village chief to suppress the chaotic villagers and announced the incident.
After hearing this, the villagers nodded.
If the Basi cattle were just a kind of beef cattle, it would be impossible for the villagers to pool their money to buy cattle. But now that the Basi cattle are laborers who can plow the fields, then even if they sell iron and endure hunger for a year, they must
Collect enough money next year to buy five more Bass cows.
The more fields you cultivate, the better your life will be.
At this time, a smile broke out on Michel's face again, and he said: "Besides, since the great Master Luther can invent such a magical tool, then I think what he said about manure fertilizing the fields must be true. And this time I
I heard that not only human excrement can fertilize the fields, but some bird excrement and livestock excrement can also be used. Now that Bass cattle help you plow the fields, we can stop people from going to the forest to dig out dung and fertilize the land. Maybe this year
The harvest will increase by 30%."
The villagers were stunned for a moment, and then they all let out strange screams.
"Yes, since the great Master Luther invented this magical tool, then what he said must be correct. Manure fertilizes the fields."
“So it turns out bird droppings are okay too?”
"That's it, let's get started immediately."
The villagers were about to leave one after another to recruit helpers to collect all kinds of feces. At this time, Michel stopped the villagers and summoned the villagers to build a house for the Bas cow to live in.
The cows must be settled first before we can talk about the future.
Yo yo yo, our Bass cow is simply a golden cow.
And this kind of thing happened not only in Tiematun, but also in the other nine villages, and even among the serfs.
Luther changed from Young Master Luther to the great Young Master Luther.
The prestige of the Pompeii family and Luther's personal prestige were increasing.
If Luther immediately became the lord of the Pompeii family, then in the minds of his subjects, he would probably immediately become the most outstanding and greatest lord of Pompeii.
Luther the Great, Pompeii.
…………
Five days later.
Near Pompeii Castle, Town Hall.
That's right, the construction of the great Pompeii's City Hall has been initially completed. It is a two-story villa building.
There are twenty rooms inside, including office rooms, conference rooms, toilets, etc.
It covers a large area and is majestic. However, due to limited conditions, the current city hall is mainly made of wood and has not been painted. The appearance is the natural color of wood.
There are many rooms in the city hall, but there are only two or three big cats and kittens. Currently there are only mayor Lelouch, his four assistants, a few errands, and a team of ten guards.
The internal structure of the city hall is also relatively simple.
In the mayor's office, Luther leaned against the window. Looking out from this window, the scenery he saw was almost the same as that of Pompeii's castle.
Pieces of farmland and the people working on the farmland.
The Bas cow has captured the hearts of the people, and the new farming method has been spread. With the addition of manure to fertilize the fields, I believe this year's harvest will be good.
Looking to the future, Pompeii’s income will double next year.
Luther was even more shameless. He seemed to see not farmland, but houses and even villas.
In a few years, this will definitely become a city center location.
Pompeii will become a big city, and commerce will flourish. And agriculture will not decline. In this primitive and backward world, agriculture must not give up.
Without food, you will be at the mercy of others.
Agriculture will not disappear, it will also flourish. It will just be far away from the city. A Pompeii city with prosperous commerce and a large population, plus the vast surrounding farmland.
The future of Pompeii.
The future is simply bright.
"Little Luther, the people have accepted the new way of farming with cattle. They also believe in the "fantasy" of manure-fertilized fields. They believe that Pompeii's farmland and tax revenue will expand two or three times next year. With the increase in taxes,
, Pompeii can raise more civilian knights, and the children of civilians are more likely to survive. In less than twenty years, Pompeii's territory will expand several times, and the population will also expand several times. With good luck, from various ways
Gain the population, or even increase it tenfold. I believe you will own a city. But to own a city, you must have at least the title of baron. Do you have any ideas to persuade, or bribe the House of Nobles, to improve your Pompeii family?
Title?"
Lelouch, who was sitting in the mayor's seat in the office, asked seriously.
Not long ago, Lelouch didn't think that Luther could own a city, but now that there are plows, if fertilizing the fields with manure is really effective, then Lelouch thinks that it is not impossible for Luther to own a city.
Under such circumstances, Lelouch felt it was necessary to make some suggestions for the Pompeii family.
Only with the title of baron can one own a city's fief.
In addition, it is necessary to cultivate more knight families similar to the Iron Horse family and loyal to the Pompeii family.
Lelouch even felt that if he got married and gave birth to a few strong young men in the future, he might be able to seek a knighthood and become knight vassals under the Pompeii family.
Bonaparte Knight collar.
Yo, not bad.
Luther came back to his senses, he took his eyes back from the vast farmland, then turned his head and smiled at Lelouch and said: "Twenty years? That's too long. I think three to five years at most
, I can own a city. So at this time we have to plan carefully, how can I have enough potions and other resources to become a powerful knight within this period of time. By the way, persuade,
In other words, we can bribe the House of Lords and upgrade our Pompeii family to a baron family."
Lelouch was stunned.
Is this ambition a bit too big?
Taking it too much for granted?
Do you think it is so easy for a family of hereditary knights to become a baron family from a tadpole to a frog? Did you run the House of Lords?
But it’s quite exciting to think about it.
If Luther can become a baron within three to five years, does that mean he will become a hereditary noble within ten years?
