After leaving the school, Arthur did not rush back to the castle, but moved towards the farmland towards Northwest.

He is going to see how the wheat grows and how the farmland is reclaimed.

Any great vision must first solve the problem of filling the stomach, so land and food are the top priority.

Last winter, in order to boost morale, Arthur evacuated almost all the grain stored in the castle despite the dissuasion of Thorne and the vassals. Although he successfully resisted the demonic beast, it also put Windward Fort into a food crisis.

In the current Windward Fort, the amount of wheat to be taken out per day exceeds 1000 kilos. The only remaining grain in Windward Fort has already been eaten down.

I don’t know how much oil, salt, firewood and rice are expensive. The food needs of Windward Fort now depend entirely on the purchase of merchants from overseas.

Food is related to the stability of the territory, and it is the most important war material in wartime. Arthur made up his mind to completely solve the food problem in Windward Fort.

Not only do we need to increase food production so that everyone can fill their stomachs, but there must also be surplus food for storage and processing.

After the land reform, the area of ​​cultivated land under Windward Fort has exceeded 10000 mu.

In the three villages, the average person needs to cultivate about 3 mu of land.

And as slaves continue to gain freedom, the area of ​​arable land is still growing.

For every slave that is free, Arthur will give them the status of a farmer, assign them to the land, and let them start a new life.

However, arable land alone is not enough. In order to improve the efficiency of agriculture, Arthur ordered the foundry to build various iron tools, the first is the sickle.

Arthur’s request is to make at least 500 iron sickles before the wheat harvest at this time.

Planting can be done slowly, but the wheat harvest is usually only 4 days, and there will be more than one month before the wheat harvest.

As for large agricultural tools such as Bending Plow and Sower, they are still being manufactured. Arthur’s requirement is that before planting next year, each household can have at least one Bending Plow and Sower.

As for livestock, horse farming is used because of insufficient cattle.

According to Arthur’s estimation, it is not difficult to achieve the goal of filling everyone’s stomach.

Upper River Collar is probably the most suitable place for growing wheat in the entire Danze Kingdom.

In the south of the Tunguska mountain range and the west of the green peak mountain range, in addition to the large flat and fertile land, the Water Element of the entire Upper River Collar is also very developed. Various streams are criss-crossed, so there is no need to worry about irrigation.

And because of the existence of the Tunguska mountain range, Upper River Collar is a place with almost only two seasons, and the transition between winter and summer usually takes less than ten days.

Once the winter is over, the temperature in Upper River Collar will quickly warm up, and the wheat sown at the end of the winter will mature in only 3 months.

Arthur conservatively estimated that based on the 10000 acres of arable land in Windward Fort, the yield is 2 100 50 kg per mu, and the wheat harvest is 2 seasons, and 5,000,000 kg of wheat can be obtained a year!

5,000,000 jin, such an output is placed in China in the 21st century, it is really no better than a county.

But this is a huge leap for the current Windward Fort.

In the past, Windward Fort also had a large area of ​​arable land, but due to various reasons such as the implementation of the 3 nursery system, the actual annual cultivated area was not more than 3000 mu, the yield per mu was only 200 Jin, and the annual output of wheat was only 1.2 million jin.

This output is not enough for a few thousand people a year after removing the seed grain.

The free men of the Upper River Collar can still buy food from the outside world, but the slave farmers on the farm can’t fill their stomachs at all.

Pure wheat bread is a luxury food for serf people. Most of the time, they can only eat bread mixed with wheat bran and beans. In winter, they can only eat food mixed with all edible foods. Dark, hard to swallow black bread. As for meat, it is really rare to eat it once a year.

5,000,000 catties of wheat, although not much, can at least ensure that six-seven thousand people under Windward Fort fill their stomachs. With other foods, there will be a lot of surplus in one year.

As soon as Arthur’s team arrived in the wheat field, the peasant women who were busy applying fertilizer in the field saluted him.

“Sir, the wheat ears are growing very well, and they are much fuller than in previous years.” In this field, there is no danger, Thorne and the Knights also looked at the green wheat field in front of them.

Looking at Thorne, Arthur teased: “Why, don’t you think it was watered with manure?”

“You are right, dung water is as useful to these wheat as humans eat meat.”

Arthur twitched the corner of his mouth and said solemnly: “Sir Thorne, if you are telling a joke, please tell me in advance. If you are talking about metaphors, it is really disgusting. You should ask Yilu or Scholar Boye for advice when you have time. .”

“Okay, sir.” Thorne nodded solemnly.

“Hope to see your changes, don’t lose 10000000 million to your disciplines.” Arthur encouraged.

Because of the arrival of the scholars, in addition to establishing Hope School, Arthur also promoted education in the castle and the First Army.

Arthur went all the way north, and after inspecting the wheat fields, Arthur inspected several farms in turn.

After the farm was abolished, the livestock of the original three farms were also classified and concentrated, and farmers familiar with breeding were hired for large-scale breeding.

Chickens and ducks reproduce fast, and now each has a scale of several 100, pigs and sheep also have nearly 100, and there are also dozens of dairy cows and farm cattle.

The benefits of centralized breeding are obvious. In addition to facilitating care and saving manpower, it also facilitates the collection of livestock manure.

Although Windward Fort has fallen into the dilemma of food shortages recently, neither the Windward Fort nor the First Army have lowered the food standard at all.

On the contrary, due to the increase in egg production and the existence of excellent hunters like ghostly eagle, the food standard has been improved.

The guards of the castle and the soldiers of the First Army, in addition to eating eggs everyday all, can also eat demonic beast meat every 3 to 5!

According to Arthur’s inference, the reason why the demonic beast meat can promote Battle Qi cultivation is most likely because the demonic beast meat has extremely high nutritional value.

A strong physique is a part of cultivation Battle Qi, and the reason may be as simple as that.

After inspecting several farms, Arthur headed towards the castle and planned to go to the horse farm at the foot of the green peak mountain range before turning back to Windward Fort.

The Upper River Collar is rich in water plants and rich in high-quality war horses. Before the iron ore mines were unearthed, the horse farm was the most important industry in Windward Fort until now.

At its largest scale, there were more than 2 100 adult horses in the vast horse farm at the foot of the green peak mountain range!

When Windward Fort lost control of the iron ore mine and was constantly squeezed by the Campese and Green families. When it was in a difficult situation, it relied on selling horses in exchange for a large amount of Gold Coin.
