I Can See The Properties Of The World

Spring has come quietly.

But in fact, there is no big change in the feeling. The temperature has warmed up a bit after the snow has gradually passed. Gradually, it is only a little bit colder in the morning and evening, and the noon is the big sun.

In spring, it’s the day when farmers go to cultivate the land. During this time, Sean has seen many people on the sand table often walking to the west... To the west is Oro City or the grain of Oro area. Place of production.

The Oro area is the border area that is not suitable for large-scale planting of crops. Until now, more storage is available for purchase. The tax from border trade is used to buy grain from other regions, as for the only thing left for self-cultivation It’s a large manor to the west, and it’s not a problem to feed hundreds of thousands of people on the arable land of about 100,000 mu in the past!

More land and fewer people have always been the norm in this world. Sean has analyzed before that for safety and convenience, many people are willing to live closer to the city, even if they can’t live in the city and surrounding small areas. Towns and mountain villages should also be closer.

This is the case in my own Telmian town. It is not far from Koga City and less than a day in a straight line. Because it is a mountain road, it takes a day and a half to walk.

The arable land near the city is responsible for supporting the people around it!

Sean specifically asked the farming tycoon Divala family around him about this matter... Now the population of Oro City has increased a bit, so the surrounding area is almost half a million people. It is estimated that it is actually 6 people per acre of land.

Even if it matures once a year, it can support six people.

It's just...

There are not so many people who cultivate land in Oro City.

Many places are deserted, and some of them are also allocated for other crops, fruits, and so on.

It must be separated...

To put it bluntly, some crops cannot be planted together, including fruits, rice and wheat. The soil has a process, especially For the vegetable field that likes to fertilize, other things cannot be planted.

"This is related to many reasons, such as..."

"Needless to say."

Sean is using the afternoon tea served in front of the sand table And dim sum while listening to Charles Divara’s report on the surrounding crops.

Charles Divara is Philo’s big brother. The Divara family is placed in the management... The Ra family also controls another part of the industry.

Balancing the power of the two major business giants will help you better manage the city.

"So, although our city of Oro has a lot of land, the conditions for planting are actually not as good as those of other inland cities." Charles said.

"Have there ever been acidification on the planting land in the west?"

"Uh...what do you mean?"

" Oh~ it’s okay. I mean it doesn’t produce fruit or leaves are often withered and so on.” Sean explained hurriedly.

In fact, it is the process of soil acidification caused by more fertilization of the soil, which is why Charles just said that the crops cannot be planted together... Before, Sean also thought of using magic methods to increase yield, but in Several business tycoons report that the consumption of magic is not as fast as using alchemy potions directly.

Sean really ignored this!

Because I did not understand the principles of alchemy at the time in Koga City, it seems not difficult to make some high-content nitrogen fertilizers with my own understanding, and the alchemists have been involved in this a long time ago. , So rich ranchers will buy some alchemist medicine powder or solvent to fertilize.

Therefore, although there is a lot of land that can be planted in Oro City, on the one hand, there is no one, and on the other hand, the area that can be planted is too unified, but it is not easy to handle, and most of them are left unused.

After a cup of warm tea, the maid will come over and take the cup.

Then handkerchiefs for interrupting will be handed in. If you are hungry, there will be some desserts.

Wiping his hands, Sean picked up a soft fruit pastry...

"Go on." Signaled Charles to continue reporting.

"We have never seen the situation that the adults said, but occasionally there will be such a problem for a few years. At that time, we will use alchemy potions to rejuvenate the land, so this problem can be solved."

Is it necessary to balance the acid-base with the medicine directly?

It seems to work.

It's a way... Sean took a bite of the pastry, wiped his hands and watched the bustling little bits move on the sand table.

The problem remains in place. Only one side of Oro City is suitable for planting crops. There are many mountains in the north, but there are not many villages. To the south is the old city of Tacoma and some swamps and small towns to the south will go abroad. To the east, there are still many mountains and rocks, and it will continue to be a road for merchants in the two places after the business road with the Idak area is reopened. And trade zone.

Ispossible to develop planting beside the border road, it needs a lot of people to manage it, otherwise it will be destroyed and stolen.

"Charles, you see that these are the problems in our Oro area. If it were in previous years, we would have had a good time, but now the business road leading to Idak does not know when it will restart. The surrounding towns that have become rich due to the flow of business people have had no such good luck this year... In addition to the undecided war in the North, we have to bear the possibility of a large number of refugees going south and the payment of national money and food."

"It's just entering the spring. If we prepare in advance, we may still have a chance to be rich, otherwise everyone will have a hard time this year~" Sean said with emotion.

At this time, the Divala family, as a business tycoon, actually sided with them. As long as they are not well, they will not be well. The same is true for the residents of Oro City.

At that time, one layer will be stacked, and families that could still eat meat will probably eat potatoes this year.

"Uh...I think we can put part of the crops to the north and let a farmer on the mountain..."

"Not feasible."

Sean stopped before the other party finished talking.

Isn't this funny? Only when there are many people can a city be formed. If people are blasted away from that city, the consumption will be over.

Looking at the moving dots on the sand table, and at Charles who is thinking about it...

It seems that the descendants of the Divala family are not good. It might be a better chance to ask the John of Morgan's about this kind of thing.

"Expansion..."

"en?"

The other party suddenly said a word.

"My lord, we can either use the original Tacoma old city possessions as well, which will be much better."

"We never lack land, just people Not enough," Sean said.

This is still nonsense. If there are enough people and rich, the old city would have been remodeled a long time ago, and he will wait until he speaks.

But expansion is not just such a narrow meaning. Sean suddenly turned his eyes to the south...to the south and farther south.

"Do you think it would be better for us to start more trade and diplomacy with Mersin at this time."

Sean will reopen Karyana many months ago. I picked up the mentioned plan again...

Because I recently heard that news of the border war also spread to the southern coastal kingdom along with the merchants.
