Lynn woke up early and, after having a nutritious breakfast, stepped onto the Lord's Square at the front of the town.
On the Lord's Square.
A large group of tightly packed figures had already lined up in an orderly fashion.
Their whispered discussions quieted simultaneously upon seeing Lynn stepping forward.
Standing on a one-meter-high platform, Lynn gazed at these townsmen.
Perhaps because they already knew Master Lynn's purpose for calling them together.
Their eyes sparkled, and there was a noticeable look of expectation on their faces.
At this moment.
Kuisi walked up to Lynn.
She bent down slightly and explained respectfully.
"Master, according to your requirements, several important workshops have not had their manpower withdrawn."
"In other places, half of the manpower has been withdrawn and incorporated into the upcoming cultivation."
"I conducted a tally, with a manpower total of five thousand people, and two hundred wheel plows!"
Lynn nodded slightly, "I understand."
Kuisi said no more useless words, stepped back a few steps, and stood beside Lynn.
As the steward of the territory, she only needs to execute the tasks and orders arranged by the master and then carry out the tally.
As for how to arrange it, naturally, it is up to Lynn, the lord, to decide.
Lynn surveyed the crowd and addressed them.
"Everyone, I am the lord of this land, Lynn!"
"Perhaps many of you already know why you've been withdrawn from your posts!"
"It's because now we've entered spring! This land is about to undergo a major cultivation plan!"
"Only by having more land that can be used for farming can we cultivate a large amount of food so that you have something to eat!"
"This is not just for me, the lord, but also for you, the townsmen, and for your children!"
"Last year's autumn plowing opened up fifty thousand acres of farmland!"
"This time, more people, more tools, and more animal power are involved in the cultivation."
"I hope you can open up more farmland, only then can you not worry about hunger!"
Listening to Lynn's resonant words, the townsmen were moved, and some were eager.
Lynn's words continued.
"Do you see that stretch of barren land full of dry grass in the distance?"
"There, that's the battlefield for all of you!"
"You will be like soldiers charging into battle, driving the cattle and horses, pulling the heavy plow, galloping across that battlefield recklessly."
"Wield the iron hoe and iron shovel in your hands, clear a piece of farmland to survive on!"
"Do you...have confidence?"
Neat shouts rose in response within the crowd.
"Yes! Yes! Yes!"
The responses surged like waves.
Suddenly.
A text panel appeared in Lynn's sight.
[Notice: The Commander's Roar skills activated successfully, boosting the morale of the whole army, increasing soldiers' attack power and defense by 10%, duration: 1 hour]
Seeing the text before him, Lynn was a bit surprised.
However, thinking again, he considered it normal.
These are not just townsmen, but also people who naturally benefit from skills.
Lynn nodded with satisfaction.
Perhaps, to these townsmen, their lord's words made them excited and filled with strength.
But part of the reason is due to Lynn's Commander's Roar skills!
Then.
Lynn began to divide tasks among these townsmen.
With last year's farming experience, not only Lynn, but many townsmen also gained experience.
Looking at the vast crowd of two thousand people before him, Lynn divided them into four batches.
Similar to last year's summer plowing and autumn plowing.
The first batch of two thousand people is responsible for clearing weeds, tree roots, and stones first.
The second batch of one thousand people drives the cattle pulling the wheel plow for cultivation, with additional personnel for assistance and rotation.
The third batch of one thousand people follows behind the wheel plow to break large soil clumps using hoes, spread them evenly, and collect stones and tree roots from the soil.
The fourth batch of one thousand people is responsible for digging ridges in the soil and placing fertilizer!
After everyone was divided into tasks, with a command from Lynn.
Five thousand townsmen marched grandly outside the town.
A few miles outside the town, nearly a stretch of endless wild grass awaits their cultivation.
All iron tools, cattle with heavy plow yokes, and draft horses have already been taken there.
Lynn, along with Red, walked at the back of the team.
As the townsmen stepped into the farmland, they began using sickles, clearing weeds, and piling them up.
Lynn relaxed slightly in his heart.
The spring plowing has finally begun!
Not to mention whether these townsmen can open up more farmland.
As long as they can open up fifty thousand acres like last year's autumn plowing and sow barley seeds.
With his improved planting technology, each acre can yield one hundred and fifty pounds.
Come the summer harvest in July or August, at least fifteen million pounds of barley can be produced from forty thousand acres!
If each person consumes three pounds of food daily, fifteen million pounds of barley can feed ten thousand townsmen for at least one and a half years!
Even though crop rotation and fallow systems will follow, as long as cultivation continues.
The entire territory need not worry about hunger!
