CHAPTER 151: CHAPTER 131: AUTUMN PLOWING BEGINS (5K)

The life of ordinary people has always been so simple.

A few minutes later.

Lynn returned to the village and walked straight back to his red brick house.

After a comfortable bath, he changed into a set of clothes and walked out of the wooden house.

At this moment.

The night had completely fallen.

Enveloping the entire sky and earth.

In the village, only a heavily burning bonfire remained, dispelling the darkness.

Beside the bonfire.

Under the care of the chef, a dozen fat whole pigs were being roasted to a golden brown.

Curls of pork fat kept bursting open, then flowed down the pork, the rich aroma of meat continuously circling and filling the noses and mouths of the villagers.

Their mouths watered, and they couldn’t help swallowing.

The temptation of meat was simply too great for them.

On the iron table beside, piles of barley bread and pots of steaming hot various porridges were placed.

Fish and barley porridge, pork and barley porridge...

There were even baskets of fruits and barrels of beer placed on top.

This abundance of food was something the villagers had never seen before.

Seeing Master Lynn finished bathing, Kuisi immediately went up to greet him.

She explained, "Master Lynn, as per your instructions, all the food is ready."

In the afternoon.

Master Lynn had called her over, saying that a banquet needed to be prepared.

A large amount of meat and bread needed to be made.

Lynn nodded, "Well done."

Lynn’s arrival immediately attracted the attention of a group of villagers.

They widened their eyes, waiting for their Master Lynn’s words.

Such a feast, such a grand scene.

Master Lynn naturally had a big announcement to make.

Lynn scanned the crowd and spoke in a deep voice, "Everyone, the reconstruction tasks of the territory have already been more than half completed, and the peas have also been harvested."

"Tonight is a celebration banquet! Food and drink are unlimited! This is your deserved reward!"

Upon hearing Master Lynn’s words, the group of villagers became excited.

Lynn’s voice continued.

"However, after tonight, starting tomorrow, this territory will embark on a new journey!"

"I need all of you to invest in the cultivation of arable land."

"Only by cultivating more land can we plant more crop seeds and achieve a bountiful harvest."

"Only then will you have a continuous supply of food!"

Lynn’s words were very calm, without any inspiring shouts or fervor.

But just such a plain account told them the most necessary things to do.

Their industrious labor was not only for the development of Master Lynn’s territory but also for their own sustenance.

Their labor and eating were closely related.

"Cultivate, cultivate!"

"Cultivate the fields!"

"..."

Listening to the continuous shouting, Lynn nodded in satisfaction.

He was indeed the lord of this territory.

But with the current loyalty of the villagers, he didn’t even need to deliberately stir their emotions, nor did he need to brainwash them.

As long as he gave them a goal, they would go and toil silently.

This was undoubtedly the best state for the development of a territory.

Lynn declared, "Next, it’s banquet time!"

With Master Lynn’s permission, the villagers looked ahead at the bonfire with surprise on their faces and walked over.

Although the roast pig meat was extremely tempting to them.

But after having meat in every meal during this period.

They were no longer rushing madly to grab.

After all, the food Master Lynn prepared for them daily was simply too good.

The open space in front of the village was slightly chaotic.

Because of the large number of people, it was inevitable.

But it was orderly amidst the chaos.

No grabbing or contention occurred.

Lynn sat on a long bench in front of a square table, watching the villagers from afar.

Eating roast pork, drinking beer, sitting in groups of threes and fours...

Their faces were filled with happy smiles.

At this moment.

Kuisi came over with a large bowl of wheat porridge and a large plate of roast pork.

And placed these foods on the table.

Kuisi kindly said, "Master Lynn, these are pork loins, the best part."

Lynn looked at Kuisi and said, "Good."

With a movement of his hand, he picked up the iron fork and started eating.

The roast pork was tender and juicy, with the pork skin having a crispy texture and rich flavor.

The chef indeed did a great job.

Time slowly passed.

The blazing bonfire gradually dimmed, and finally turned into embers and ashes.

The villagers on the open space had dispersed, returning to their red brick houses to rest.

Waiting for tomorrow, to begin a new round of cultivation.

...

The next morning.

The villagers woke up early.

Coming to the open space in front of the village, after having breakfast, waiting for Master Lynn’s orders.

Biologically conditioned, Lynn woke up even earlier than them.

Swallowing a spoonful of the egg custard in his hand, Lynn began to assign tasks.

The territory had three thousand three hundred forty people!

Excluding sixty children, and the villagers from the Handicraft Workshop District.

Whether it was rock salt mining, the Salt Factory, anthracite mining, or iron ore mining, even the Red Brick Factory!

Lynn had carried out a reduction.

Farming.

Was the foundation of everything!

Looking at the two thousand people in front of him, Lynn divided them into four batches.

The first batch cleared weeds, tree roots, and stones.

The second batch drove the oxen with wheel plows for cultivation.

The third batch followed the wheel plow, breaking up large chunks of turned soil with hoes, raking evenly, and removing stones and tree roots from the soil.

The fourth batch dug furrows in the soil and added compost!

This time’s cultivation was not much different from summer plowing.

The only difference was that Lynn now had a lot of manpower and a hundred and forty wheel plows.

Ehrelo’s Blacksmith Workshop did not disappoint Lynn’s trust and expectations.

At the end of the month, a hundred wheel plows were already completed!

Clear division of labor minimizes unnecessary handovers.

Was simply the only way to improve work efficiency.

Coupled with many villagers having experience driving wheel plows.

This time, the plowing range would definitely be wider and taller!

Lynn needed wider land to plant crops.

With Lynn’s command, two thousand villagers dispersed with their iron farming implements.

This year’s autumn plowing began!
