If I let you farm, will you become the emperor of the empire?

Roman had to spend two days to settle the witches.

They brought many changes, the most obvious of which was that Roman had more than ten more combat forces.

Although they were all mid-level witches.

But in the Origin City, they were genuine high-end combat forces, and in the army they were captain-level non-commissioned officers.

Among them, Margaret made him quite concerned.

But they had just pledged their loyalty, and Roman could not really let them show their underwear.

After getting familiar with each other, some things could be easily found out.

Secondly, Gweil and Sana finally had a teacher, and the half-baked Garin could finally be freed.

Finally, there were changes in the future.

Roman felt that he might be able to establish contact with the Witch Forest with the help of these witches.

The Witch Forest was down and out, but the foundation was still there.

For example, metal smelting, general spells, potion formulas, and ancient secrets all played a great role for Roman.

What interested him most was the prophetic witch who had lived for more than a hundred years.

Shasta said that the prophet has the ability to activate the hidden potential of others, which made Roman's heart beat.

So, after settling down, Roman immediately asked Shasta to write a letter to Witch Lin.

In this era of difficult communication, it is very difficult to deliver letters.

Some scholars know how to raise various birds to travel back and forth between two places regularly to deliver information.

However, this method has many hidden dangers. Even if multiple birds are released at one time, there is no guarantee that it will definitely reach the right person.

If it is confidential information, a messenger must be sent.

The Warcraft Witch can complete the task of delivering letters quickly and well. She can host her soul consciousness in the bird.

The disadvantage is that once the host dies, her soul will also be damaged.

And this process requires someone to take care of her sleeping body for a long time. The healing witch Lusa is an excellent candidate.

From this, it can be seen that although witches can do limited things.

But what they can do is often what others can't do.

This is the uniqueness of witches, and there is a special advantage range.

At this stage, Roman does not need witches to do anything irreplaceable.

But he still arranged work for the witches.

You can't ask them to do nothing.

Teach Gweil and Sana,

Assist in military training,

Sometimes when the kitchen is short of manpower, go to fetch water and cut vegetables.

It's easy to find something for them to do, and it's also a way to quickly familiarize them with the Origin Manor.

A person can only relax in a familiar environment.

...

And at this point in time.

The summer harvest season in May is here.

The more than 20,000 acres of winter wheat can finally be harvested!

According to Roman's observation, this year's winter wheat yield is significantly higher than last year.

This makes him very happy!

Because of the agricultural revolution and increased food production, Origin City has never had a food crisis.

But the population explosion and excessive pressure have caused Roman to be unable to store food at all.

The food reserves harvested in the previous quarter were almost consumed by the time they were harvested in the next quarter.

At most, only a hundred thousand pounds of reserve food can be left each time.

Roman's grain storage plan for Origin City was calculated in great detail.

In other words, the grain reserves in Origin City have always been in a relatively tight state.

Once Roman encountered natural disasters or man-made disasters, he had to lead his troops to go out and rob food.

As long as the residents of Origin City were not well fed, Roman would not care whether the nobles outside could be well fed.

Why did he pay so much attention to armaments?

It was to avoid food problems.

Fortunately, the basin has been relatively prosperous in the past two years.

In other words, the residents of Sige Town have never encountered any decent natural disasters, at most summer floods, but the upstream plains are not to be feared at all, and are simply a land of farming chosen by God.

However, even so, the consumption of grain is still very limited.

Now, this round of winter wheat has allowed Roman to see the dawn of grain storage.

Good harvest!

No one doesn't like harvesting these days.

So, the group of stupid witches also came to help happily.

This round of winter wheat was all cultivated last year, so the yield is relatively high.

The average yield per mu reached an astonishing 270 kilograms.

A total of more than 6 million kilograms of wheat were harvested.

Winter wheat has a higher flour yield than spring wheat, and can produce more flour.

The residents of the entire Origin City are celebrating this harvest.

Roman did not disappoint everyone and prepared the celebration in advance.

It was still a buffet, and they ate while cooking.

Feel the grace from the lord!

Not to mention the residents, even the prisoners of war were in tears.

They waded through mud, dug pits and carried soil every day, and worked like cows and horses in the swamp for three months!

Now they can finally take a breath!

Roman was afraid that the prisoners of war would cause trouble, and his attitude towards them has never been soft.

Prisoners of war have no human rights, and the amount of labor is fixed every day.

If they can finish the work, they will have three meals.

If they can't finish the work, they will be beaten and whipped. If they can't finish the work continuously, they will wait for death.

This is labor reform!

During the heavy labor, the body is very tired, the will is not so strong, and it is easy to be taken advantage of.

The prisoners of war are also very cooperative.

It’s okay to be tired.

Damn! I’m already a prisoner of war, what good treatment do I expect!

I won if I could keep my five limbs!

In the end, I really got good treatment!

Carrot and stick, after this hard labor, not to mention the mercenaries, even the believers have undergone some changes in their ideas.

Hiss... This, this oppression system is too advanced!

I feel the benevolence of Master Roman!

Of course, it is impossible for everyone to be directly subjugated to the king.

But as long as some people are shaken, it will be fine.

Roman is not in a hurry about this.

Prisoners of war have no human rights, and residents who are subjugated to the king have human rights.

The former is definitely easier to oppress.

For example, the amount of labor he assigns to prisoners of war is definitely more than that of local residents.

For example, it takes nine days to dig a river, and Roman has to give residents ten days to increase the tolerance rate.

This period of time can be freely arranged, as long as the work is done well, and he will come to check the results.

But the prisoners of war are not like that. If they say nine days, they will be eight days, and seven days is the limit. If they can't finish it within six days, they will be whipped.

Roman plans to continue to oppress them to the extreme for a while, and then spread the word that prisoners of war who return to the king can get their household registration books.

By then, the scene must be full of gongs and drums and firecrackers.

Anyway, the mercenaries will definitely be the first to turn their backs on the enemy and surrender with courtesy.

After getting the green card of Origin City, Roman can naturally recruit them into the army.

As for those believers who stick to the faith of the gods, Roman also recognizes their persistence.

Keep using them to death!

Origin City is a centralized system, a violent institution where one class rules over another.

The more slaves without human rights, the better.

Because relatively speaking, Roman's cost for slaves is very low, but the benefits he gets are great.

He is not afraid of them rebelling at all, because once they rebel, those residents with human rights will spontaneously become enemies of the slaves and safeguard the interests of the ruling class.
