Starting in January, the entire Wubei Territory began preparing for the spring plowing.
By early April, after months of intense work, more than 30,000 mu of Wubei Territory's 100,000 mu of reclaimed land were planted with crops such as vegetables and flax. The remaining 70,000-plus mu were entirely sown with barley and wheat.
Once the sowing was complete, it should have been a relatively idle time for farming.
However, Ronin had already made other plans, so his subjects would get no rest.
Civil Affairs Chief Wilson organized the villages—including those in Mountain Forest Town, Swamp Town, and Black Earth Village—into reclamation teams, and the work of clearing new land began in full swing.
Now, in addition to each village being equipped with Curved Plows and iron farming tools, Ronin had also transferred many Black Water Buffalo from Swamp Town and assigned them to the village chiefs.
