  Chapter 63 Early Planning

   Bruno naturally saw the strange expressions on the faces of everyone present.

but……

   You guys just wait to get slapped in the face!

   Potatoes, corn and sweet potatoes are both high-yield food crops. With the addition of chemical fertilizers, four thousand gold coins are considered to be less!

   Bruno looked at Old Ford and said, “The results of the census, let’s talk briefly with you here.”

Old Ford nodded and said, "The current population of Idarling is about 11,300, and more than half of them are serfs. According to the statistics of the census, the total number of civilians in Idarling is only There were 4,563 people, far fewer than the number of serfs in Idar."

"At present, in order to open up the road connecting Mann Fortress and Idar City as soon as possible, and complete the construction of Namur Fortress, Idarling has used a total of more than 2,000 serfs and civilians, accounting for five of the total population of Idarling. One part."

   "How come there are so many?" Robida asked in surprise.

   "In addition to the workers directly involved in the construction, we also recruited a large number of people to transport grain, grass, materials and construction materials." White Barrell explained.

   "This reflects the most serious problem currently facing Idalling, that is, the population is too small!" Bruno concluded: "Therefore, this year we need to do everything possible to increase the population of Idalling."

   "You can buy serfs! The slave merchants in the western part of the empire are almost everywhere!" Arnel Brad from the western part of the empire suggested.

"A serf will cost six or seven gold coins. If you buy a serf to get the manpower needed by Idar, it won’t be enough to spend all of Idar’s income on it for a year! Could you give me money? Money?" Bruno said with a black face.

   "Actually, my lord, the manpower needed by Idar may not be so exaggerated. After the construction of the Namur Fortress is completed, the serfs will not be free?" Old Ford said.

   "This is what I'm about to say. Starting this year, Idar will set aside a budget enough to build a large-scale project every year!" Bruno said with a smile.

"Per year?"

   Hearing Bruno's words, everyone in the room suddenly widened their eyes.

   isn't it? Coming again?

   First it was the Hanging Garden, and then the Fortress of Namur, but now, the Lord Count actually said that he would set aside a budget for the construction of such a project every year...

  What is this kidding?

   "Master..."

   Old Ford is already crying with excitement...

   "Alright, alright, I just want you to set aside a sufficient budget, and it may not be built every year. What anxious..." Bruno had to calm down.

   After all, Bruno doesn't know what kind of tasks the Spectacular Construction System will give him. Therefore, it is safer to set aside enough manpower and budget in advance.

   Besides, after the construction of the Namur Fortress, there is still another Alhambra waiting for you!

   "So... we have to keep our eyes on the long-term, don't put our eyes on the serfs as soon as we talk about the need for manpower... For example, we can try to attract some civilians to settle in Idar." Bruno proposed.

   "But... sir, you know that the eastern part of the empire is almost synonymous with barrenness. Even if we want civilians to settle in Idar, why do they come here?"

   "Barren? Desolate? Who do you think was put on such a label?"

   "What...what?"

   "For the nobles, the mild and rainy western part of the empire is naturally rich, because most of the big cities of the empire are concentrated in the midwest, but what do you think this has to do with ordinary people?"

   Bruno then asked: "Sam Layton, you personally escorted the gangsters to Bethlehem. What do you think of the life of the civilians in the interior? Compared with Idalling?"

   "Similarly, some are not even as good as Idar's life..."

   "This is inevitable, even I know that the practice of forcibly detaining civilians as serfs in the western part of the empire is extremely widespread, how can the civilians live well!" Bruno laughed.

"But what about the Idar collar? In Idar collar, the price of a quarter of salt is only two silver shillings, but in the central and western regions, the price of a quarter of salt can even reach three to four silver shillings. Here it is. The civilians and serfs were paid enough to support their families by building the sky garden, and sometimes they could even buy some sea fish for extra meals!"

   "The reason why the serfs gathered in the central and western part of the empire was simply because there was the foundation of the Norman Empire, and the development time was much earlier than the eastern part of the empire. As for the civilians there..."

   "I'm afraid they don't even know the distinction between east and west, north and south, maybe they haven't been out of their noble leader in their entire life!"

"In this case... then we will bring them out and let them know that the eastern part of the empire is easier to live in than the western part... Do you think that every commoner who comes to Idar can get enough land to support his family? Sample?"

  As a border aristocrat~www.novelmt.com~, the territory owned by the Idar is much larger than that of the aristocrats gathered in the central and western regions. Therefore, the Idar has a large amount of uncultivated land.

   "But that is all the land you own!" Old Ford said hastily, "Is it really necessary to give those civilians free of charge?"

"Anyway, those lands were not cultivated, so it's better to use those lands to attract the refugees. Besides, propaganda is propaganda. Anyway, every inch of land owned by Idar is owned by the lord, and they will only be allowed to use them free of charge. , Wait until the civilians drag their families and cross over half of the Norman Empire to the Idar Nation, is it possible that they can go back through all the hardships?"

   "My lord is wise! It's just...according to your opinion, how should these civilians be brought here?"

"Send out all the spies originally used to stare at Sauron, and let them take the money to go to the taverns and slums around the empire to find the troubadours who have nothing to do all day long. In short, let the lowest civilians know It’s easier to live in the eastern part of the empire than in the western part of the empire."

   "But will they believe it?" Old Ford wondered.

   "Most people naturally don't take risks because of a few unfounded words, but for those desperate civilians, go to the eastern part of the empire to seek hope, or sell themselves to the nobles and their descendants will be slaves forever. It shouldn't be difficult to choose?"

   "Master is really a wise man!" At this moment, Shabi, who had not spoken, suddenly appeared and praised with a grin.
