Rushing to the lower reaches of the Dnieper River and seizing the most abundant water and grass areas to grow wheat in a wide range of areas may be very unrealistic in a short period of time.

In terms of climate, Novgorod is far inferior to the surrounding areas of Kiev, and now the Principality has no choice. After all, Novgorod is the largest agricultural area that Rus can now firmly control.

The news of the next trip to Novgorod on Lake Ilmen has long been conveyed. The elite mercenaries will follow the duke to the south, and it all depends on the duke's mood to leave.

Some poultry in the city were slaughtered, their feathers were carefully collected, and the rabbits in captivity began to peel. The chicken is eaten right away, and the rabbit meat is marinated and baked into jerky.

The market in the city became lively, and the leather trade flourished as never before.

All soldiers who have trophies are willing to trade within the scope, and things like trading items can be done anywhere.

Outside the city wall, beside the river, an open-air "dew market" lined up. The terrain here is open and it is most suitable for gathering large numbers of people.

The assembled Ross army will be temporarily disbanded, and the departure date of the Third Banner consisting of the Suomi servants and the Balmerks has been set.

The bazaar that sprouted in Fort Shilla is undergoing a large amount of leather and food trade, and a large number of captured enemy iron weapons have actually become a kind of currency.

Local farmers, especially Slav farmers, enjoy the new tax law that Rrik ordered this year, the eleven tax, and farmers' families enjoy a surplus of grain under the less stringent tax rate.

Looking at the Suomi and Balmerks, their problem is that they have robbed a batch of scrap copper and iron utensils. Really good trophies are naturally kicked in their pockets, and the defective products are exchanged with locals for wheat and leather at the market, and even a special product of Mrs. Irmenslcolorful striped linen cloth.

The clothes are off-white or dark brown, which is the color of beasts. Who doesn't love beauty? Due to the absolute scarcity of dyestuffs and textile materials, Narvik in the extreme north cannot even make large-scale linen cloth. Although it can make woolen clothes, the output is not high, and the color tone is too single.

The colorful cloth is about to refresh the outfits of these expeditionary Balmerks, and it is also an eye-opener to the people in their hometowns to wait and see.

Here, the circulation of silver coins and copper coins is still limited, and squirrel skin plays a part of currency.

In just three days, the people who are about to leave traded as much as they needed. The warriors whose expedition has ended temporarily have no single loot, but how can they be easily satisfied?

The expedition is only suspended! The Karelian war is still going on, and the army will regroup next year. The network of waterways connecting the settlements has been determined, and the assembly of troops will be quick.

The anticipation of the future war made up for the soldiers' regret that they were not plundering the spoils.

However, the area of Fort Shilla is much better than the home of the fjord that faces the Atlantic Ocean. In the Eastern world, Helafide and his entire Third Flag team will all be back with a sack of trophies. Go to Narvik's hometown. These trophies are of limited value, but is the information sheet about the East also the most valuable?

Helafide leaned on a pair of feet to examine the bare farmland after the harvest on the Neva River, which he envied. Now that Rurik made that decision, he was tempted.

He expressed his opinion to Rurik: "This time I will wait until Jiang Xue in Roseburg, and I will return to Narvik on a reindeer sleigh. Next year, before the ice and snow melt, I will bring a group of female families and children with others. The warriors arrived at Roseburg. I hope that at that time, Lord Duke will send a fleet to pick us up."

This is what Rurik most hopes to see, but it is more than that.

The main force of the fleet is about to go to Silla Fort, and will stop at Herminki on the way to unload all the Suomi fighters. The Chief of Guard Jeflo will perform his duties as a nobleman and govern the entire Finland on behalf of the Duchy of Ross.

Many people will leave, and many people will arrive in the East.

Before the fleet set sail, Rurik wrote letters in Luen letters on a wooden board.

Duke and Duke Taishang are all in the east, and a group of people must rush to their new homes in the east before the sea freezes. This is not a trip but a settlement!

Harrodsson, the old guy, will continue to be ordered to station at Roseburg's hometown, and in a sense, his dream will actually be achieved. Haro Zossen serves as the governor of Roseburg, which is equivalent to the chief, who will govern his home on behalf of the duke in accordance with tradition.

Probably the most painful is Lumia...

Rurik felt a little sorry for this woman, but this was the fate that everyone didn't use.

A chicken pen dipped in carbon ink writes the text on the birch plank, and Rurik uses a dagger to draw it out of the groove, the ink penetrates into it, and it becomes a formal Duke's decree.

Birch trees are not uncommon on the Neva River, especially the White Tree Manor in Novgorod. White trees are birches, and there are many birches there.

The birch board used for writing letters is baked hard, and it originally exists as a carrier for information recording.

There are a lot of them, enough to build a small room on top of each other. These are made by Ella and the other sisters. The amazing number of birch boards are flat and yellow-white as a whole, and the square and square specifications are quite uniform.

They are writing vehicles, and they play the meaning of paper. Unfortunately, they are not paper.

After writing, it must be engraved and then painted to become a permanent document.

It took a lot of effort to leave Rick to complete his letter.

He stretched his body vigorously, yawned lazily, and sighed: "If you don't make paper, the bookkeepers will not be too tired to vomit blood after their work? This year I will rely on this group of wooden boards to record the fields of Novgorod. Is it enough?"

The huge amount of information is no longer enough for disks. The carrier must be upgraded to mechanical hard disks or even more outrageous storage devices.

The actual demand forced Rlik to advance the papermaking business.

How to make paper? As long as it is effective and practical, it does not matter if the color is yellow, at least it is 10,000 times better than a large number of wooden boards. You can even jump directly to the implementation of more advanced affairs...

The wooden board on which the letter was recorded was placed in a suitcase. The recipient was Haroldoson, who stayed at Rose's hometown, and he preached the Duke's resolution according to the contents of the document.

The appointed day has arrived, the first day of October in the Julian calendar, a day with northeast wind...

In this way, the wind direction is very reasonable for the fleet, and the adjustment of the sail position of each ship can be like a wild horse that rushes to the Baltic T-junction Orland Islands in a straight line.

More than 1,600 people are leaving, a large amount of grain, more than a hundred fawns, and a batch of treasured leathers are all goods that must be safely transported to their hometowns.

The days of the residents of Roseburg's hometown are as usual, and the rules or new "customary law" formulated after the agreement of Rurik and Otto and others have been implemented for three years.

Residents have become accustomed to the new rules. They enjoy the dividends of the new rules. Those who make irresponsible remarks have long since shut up. The residents of their hometowns yearn for wheat the most, and they are beginning to not tolerate the days without wheat. The stable supply of wheat is high. For everything!

The primitive accumulation of capital is full of blood and tears. This truth once again proves that it is the truth. The population food self-sufficiency rate directly controlled by the Principality of Rus exceeded 100% for the first time. The Pine Needle Manor supports 10,000 people. The residents of the farm were culled by rebellion. Regardless of whether their rebellion was reasonable or not, the residents were turned into underground skeletons. The remaining farmland will feed 10,000 Ross people, and Rurik estimates that with a little more vigorous and intensive farming efforts, the current area of trophy farmland will be able to feed as many as 20,000 people.

Today, the Viking population of the Duchy of Ross that can be directly controlled and managed by the Duke has just exceeded 10,000 due to the addition of the Balmerks. Babies and young children may account for 40% of the scale. Women are still desperately giving birth, and the baby boom is constantly flowing.

How much food can a group of children eat? The area of farmland plundered by the Principality within a few years can ensure that the basic Viking population has food throughout the year.

Standing on the ruins of the Pine Needle Manor, relying on the trophies of ripe fields, the agriculture of the Principality of Ross has risen in an instant, and this development opportunity has not dared to let Rick let it go.

The team sailing west had disappeared to sea level, and Rurik also began to move.

The Aphrora, which represents the authority of the duke, stopped by the river, and the human-powered net bag crane began to load some regular plates on the ship.

Rurik himself played a guest role as the overseer, and he deliberately dressed gorgeously to force his subordinates to dare not neglect.

"You guys do everything carefully! These wooden boards must not be damaged!"

"Almost hit the sideboard, Grund, you fought with a few women last night and your mind was dizzy today! If a board broke, I will deduct your payment."

"Hey, people over there! Be careful when you carry them. I will deduct your money if the wooden boards are stained with mud."

Rurik yelled five and six in the port. He yelled reasonably. After all, these wooden boards will be stored as permanent files. After the writing is completed, a thin layer of beeswax must be applied to prevent them from being damaged.

Mercenary Grund didn't understand what was going on with his master today. He didn't love gold or silver. He actually treated a pile of burning boards as gold and silver.

This old boy was very happy. The Fen of Jeflo was fortunate enough to be a local nobleman.

Duke Ross was young and generous. He wrote down the gratitude of not killing on the battlefield, so that it would not be enough to repay the gratitude. However, the brothers who have the raven shield can not live better. No lord can provide more than Liuli. Grams of higher payment and living treatment. They are a group of self-interested desperadoes. It is true that Duke Ross has given too much honor to money, women, and warriors.

Grund knew that he would not really be regarded as the Duke's close partner, and the brothers would live happily without the shackles in this regard.

Rurik almost moved his entire family to Fort Shilla. He did not give an official order, but most of the family members and servants will be reunited in the East this year.

That will be the end of October, and before that, Lurik must arrive in Novgorod with a group of "female writers".

The Aphrora was stuffed with materials and personnel in a cabin, so the prefabricated wooden boards were neatly stacked, as if they were the material for assembling wooden floors.

The dear female relatives stepped on the pedals one after another, and Rurik stood again on the bow of this battle-tested old ship, looking up at the huge Fort Silla walls from a very high position.

In front of the big ship, more than a hundred elite mercenaries were divided into four long boats and waited for the order to tow the big ship against the Neva River by rowing oars.

The shore was full of people, men cheered, women yelled with their children, and a group of boys jumped and jumped.

Arik led the First Banner Team to deliberately put on the armor, lined up in a neat line, and beat the shield with the sword in a regular manner.

This is a Viking-style farewell, moved by the warm atmosphere, the oarsmen who towed the big boat also yelled to the rhythm...

The faces of the female family members smiled, and Carlotta, the Duke of Ostara, also saw his tribe on the shore.

The clansmen are too easy to identify, and a white cloth is stitched with an abstract and simple bull's head heraldry, which is the Duke of Ostara flag she set.

"Everyone is sending us off, Rurik..." she said.

"Yes, we are only temporarily leaving. We will count the land area before the first snowfall. We have a long winter calculation."

"This...is it worth the effort?"

"Stupid." Rurik pouted harshly: "Do your thing. And..." He pinched Carlotta's neck with a smile: "You said I'm like an April bull. I am a bull, or a stag in October. I will give you enough opportunities. It depends on God's meaning to succeed."

Carlotta smiled, everything went without saying, she was looking forward to...

Rose's flag rose to the top of the mast, the Horn and Walrus blew at the same time, the anchor was put away by the winch, and the towing boat was ordered to move forward.

A short voyage began. In the late autumn and early winter, the highest leader arrived in Novgorod again. This is the first time for the duchy, even if it goes back to the tribal period.

After five days of uninterrupted sailing, the small fleet finally drifted to the White Tree Manor on the Volkhov River, or that she was the city of Novgorod itself.

Looking around, the tall and dark green cedar forests have been cut down, and even the birch forest, which was a symbol of the White Tree Manor, has partially disappeared. The construction of urban walls and internal buildings requires a lot of wood. The better material for building a city is of course stone. In the absence of materials, almost inexhaustible forests are the source of construction materials.

The Slavs were working all the time, and Rurik clearly saw a group of warrior-like people wandering.

Those who wander are all old guys, after all, Odie Otto is still here.

Many loggers saw the retrograde boat and the flags flying on the towering masts from a distance. They hurriedly smashed the long-handled axe on the tree stumps, rushing towards the city wall under construction without worrying about sweating on their backs. Because the Lord Duke actually arrived and arrived in Novgorod in October.

A man has become the master of the city, and Otto wants to stay here for the elderly. He and a group of old men stranded here are the most nobles in the city, even though this area is the vast ocean of Mrs. Irmenslav.

Good news suddenly reached his ears, and he raised his arms: "My old friends! Rurik and the girls are finally here. Let's go! Let you see my lovely granddaughter."

People responded happily, and some guys muttered silently that the old leader is the granddaughter who spoils her.

The people who built the city suspended their work. It was already quite cold in October. Many people rumored that the Russian army's expedition to Karelia would continue until the world was frozen by snow and ice. Grand Duke Rurik thought many things too well, but it was true. The troubles of trying to implement these matters ensue, and time will continue to be delayed.

Thousands of people felt that the Duke was busy with the expedition and the work of surveying the acres was postponed.

The measurement of fields is a matter for the nobles, the duke and the boyars, does it have much to do with ordinary farmers? How many acres I have is watched by God, and pay taxes according to the amount of land. People who have seen the destruction of Pine Needle Manor dare not provoke the Duke to anger. The Duke pays as much taxes as he wants, and I have a clear conscience~www.mtlnovel.com~ many People have a simple mentality, they are ashamed of deception, and they are even more afraid of being retaliated against the duke for not showing enough respect for the duke.

That was the Aphrodite, the flagship of the Principality. The bow of her ship was full of scratches. She was clearly a weather-beaten veteran with a clear and recognizable posture.

Thousands of people gathered at the newly built pier on the riverside, and many people stood on the trestle bridge and cheered to the ships.

"They're welcoming you." Carlotta exclaimed excitedly: "Ruriek, have you seen... have you seen your father?"

"Otto is there! It's like the image of Odin." Rurik stood on the deck and pointed out clearly. Carlotta looked sideways and saw the old man, an overly old man. Old man...

Which girl here is the most excited?

Reason tells herself to stay reserved, and after all, she will return to her natal home and spend the winter here. The excitement Svetlana jumped with excitement, and her loose hair flew up and down with the leaping posture, completely indifferent to other people's feelings. .

The ten maids, they managed to squeeze out a smile one after another, holding the railings of the ship with both hands, facing the hometown of White Tree Manor that was completely different from the memory with complex emotions.

Is this still home? Everything has changed...
