The ugly ducklings became swans, and they returned to their hometown with beautiful gestures, and then left between their biological parents.

Those people are farmers, and they are already the women of Prince Ross...

The real palace has not yet been built, and the mansion of the Ligus family has become a palace.

Rigus, who was leaning on crutches, was very happy that his daughter Svetlana came back. As for the girls from the same village who also lived in, he did not dare to reveal the unspoken discomfort.

From Anna to Yulia, they slept in the Chase shop that night. Sisters Carlotta and Ella live together.

Rurik lived in his wife's old boudoir again, washing off the dirt from his body and lying on the bed.

Lanna's heart was pounding like a deer, and the moonlight shone through the window on her husband's face. She wanted to say something, but she couldn't bear to disturb Rurik's slumber.

She snuggled up, speechless all night, just enjoying the happy night and sleeping peacefully.

Including her, there were already thirteen female scribes stationed in Novgorod.

Rurik didn't want to waste time, but even if things had to be done early, everyone who had to endure the fatigue of the voyage would at least get a good night's sleep.

After this night, the official survey of the farmland belonging to the White Tree Manor began for Novgorod City.

The rooster crowing brings the sun, and the sleeping city wakes up.

Rurik yawned and sat up, his daughter still curled up beside him, her braided hair gently covering her face.

He teased Lanna's cheek: "Female warrior, it's time to get up."

She twisted her body, hugged her husband in a daze, and suddenly woke up and realized that she was actually in the old boudoir.

Lanna Yingying smiled, twisting her body like a cat in front of Rurik.

Her smile is like winter sunshine, and her coquettish appearance is really lovable.

"Okay. Let's get up and start our great business!"

Having said that, Rurik jumped out of the bed.

When it comes to dressing, today is indeed not what it used to be.

Since Rurik came to power, the people of the Ross tribe have owned trousers. The so-called Ryurik-designated clothing styles began to appear. Overall, they were more slim-fitting than the robes of the past, but they were actually made to stretch the body smoothly during battle.

The little warriors Rurik trained, men and women alike, wore underwear. Of course women can wear long skirts, but when they go to battle, they must wear trousers and sackcloth with leggings on their calves.

It was weird at first, but after everyone got used to it, they got used to it. In the first winter, anyone who wears overall leather pants or linen pants is pleased to find that the problem of frozen crotch no longer exists.

Maybe there are some obstacles to going to the toilet, but it doesn't matter.

Svetlana, she is dressed as a female warrior, if Valkyrie has an image, she should be.

Soft linen pants fit snugly from foot to calf, wrapped around long strips of cloth.

"I've got thin, lark-like legs like this. You...you really like me like this?"

Lanna already had the answer in her heart.

Rurik made the leggings for her himself, and patted her knee, "Get up."

"Yes."

She bounced and danced around the room, as light as a bird.

The clothes on the upper and lower body are capable, refreshing and self-cultivating. The dress of this female warrior is indeed completely different from that of the local peasant women.

There was a hint of hesitation on her face.

"What do you seem worried about?" Rurik asked.

"I'm... I'm shy to dress like this in front of my hometown people."

"You actually care about their attitude? Don't care, I will personally accompany you in the major events starting today. Let me guide you."

"OK."

She is always a lively girl, and it is against her nature to be serious.

She is a very approachable woman with a naive nature. She does not have the hatred of the Carlotta sisters, the inferiority of the ten maids, the arrogance of Noren, or the construction of a dark wall in Rumia's heart.

It would be a good thing for the entire Ross Principality if she came to be the queen.

The two walked out of the house as warriors,

Susururik gathered all the female relatives.

All the prepared clothes were put on, and they all turned into female warriors, as if they were out of the woods on the hillside of Roseburg, and they were going to train today.

Rurik glanced at them and made them stand in the courtyard. "You all have your braids fastened and you all cheer up. You will be tired in the days ahead. This is not training, beyond training. I will be with you. Action, we will be divided into seven groups, after breakfast, let's go!"

Both Rigus and Otto were around quietly watching all this.

Regus and his old wife couldn't recognize their daughter, and Medvedt was also quite surprised. My sister dressed up as a warrior was too handsome, but unfortunately she was a woman...

The breakfast consisted of boiled oatmeal with honey, fried eggs, soup made with local cabbage, and some dark red dried raspberries.

The breakfast is very rich. Considering that everyone will consume a lot of physical energy today, this breakfast is nothing.

A batch of dry food is prepared at the first level. It is a sticky paste mixed with oat flour, wheat flour, honey, butter, and fresh milk. It is a greasy and sweet meal cooked on a cast iron pan. Fugorodians are extremely tall.

This is the food of the nobles, and has nothing to do with the commoners. Rurik and his wives and concubines ate these, and they were even obliged to eat these delicacies to show nobility to the commoners.

This is also a benchmark for the public woods to imitate, and anyone who suddenly becomes rich from poverty will improve their diet for the first time. The elite warriors of the Principality of Rus, their diets have begun to become picky, and the next step is the Slavs of Novgorod...

As for the premise, the fertile area on the banks of Lake Ilmen was developed into a real granary of the principality.

After dinner, people from all walks of life gathered outside the door.

There are horses here in Novgorod, but unfortunately these are not riding types, they are all ponies, which are very good for carrying things.

The dwarf horse drives a two-wheeled wooden cart, and the vehicle is very simple, even if the reins are tied to the horse's neck, it is outrageous!

This is the horse-training skill that the Eastern Slavs can learn, and the inheritance of the technology that spread the Romans and Greeks to the birthplace of the Slavs on the Vistula River. As for the horses being strangled by the tight reins, people have only regrets. , they are powerless to improve anything.

At least the horses are just pulling, and the wooden poles are fastened to the horses by belts and hemp ropes. This kind of car does not even have a bronze bearing, and the load is not large.

There is no problem with a few children sitting in the vehicle, but forcing more than a dozen people to sit in the vehicle will definitely break the hull of the vehicle. With just this glimpse, Rurik concluded that the natives had an indescribably great need for technological innovation.

A lot of wooden boards were placed on the cart, and there was also a batch of linen for dry food.

There are a large number of hemp ropes coated with chalky mud and coiled in bundles, and as long as the book is unfolded, they have a length of up to a hundred stika (equivalent to 98.2 meters). This is the rope ruler, which is made by the New Roseburg side with the guiding measuring tool shipped from the hometown of Roseburg. The hemp rope is one hundred stikas, and every ten stikas are painted with a cinnabar red pattern, and each stika is painted and attached with carbon powder. . The loose glue is attached and reinforced, so that the texture is difficult to dissipate due to friction.

These measuring tools are actually relatively primitive fools. Rurik is fully capable of making more advanced ones, but he just lacks time.

These measuring tools are enough, as many as ten rope rulers will accurately measure the length and width of various fields, and then rely on calculus to calculate the area of ​​various shapes of farmland.

Calculating fields and acres is a systematic job, and it is not as simple as counting the length and width to calculate the area. Rurik wanted to determine the macroscopic distribution of farmland outside Novgorod, align the sub-regional numbers, and then dispatch each team to take charge of an area.

This work has nothing to do with the gender of the operator, and Rurik asked his wives and concubines to be the recorders of Mode's feelings in this matter.

Who owns the farmland, where does he live, what is his name and what is his nickname, the recorder must record it. Then indicate the area of ​​its farmland as the tax base. Therefore, when making statistics, the farmland owner must be present to report. If you don’t want to come, then don’t blame the Duke for not showing mercy to me, and will treat it as an unowned wasteland and confiscate it for the Duke.

Rurik wanted to draw a "Book of Novgorod Fish Scales", and he also conducted a census of the local people, so that the ruler himself could know the true strength of the duchy.

This project is probably also the first social research project after Ross became a duchy, playing a milestone role.

A group of mercenaries in Rurik became guards. They received orders to strictly ensure the personal safety of the girls during the surveying and mapping work. Better to surround the data obtained by the surveying and mapping is to ensure the safety of those wooden boards.

There is also a group of local Slavs, they are the people of White Tree Manor, and they are also soldiers of the Slavic flag team. They even own land themselves.

However, no real surveying and mapping tasks were conducted on the first day.

The carriages loaded with wooden boards, charcoal pens and other materials must first be transported to the ridge, and some rural sheds will be built by local people.

Rurik and the girls, under the guard of a group of guards, measured the entire White Tree Manor with one pair of feet.

On this day, they walked a lot and saw a group of people bending over to pick up things, people digging a pit, and even local women sitting on the ground chatting with sweat-wiping headscarves on the bare fields.

Some curious people followed the team, and a group of children always ran around in front of Rurik, exuding the bright smiles of the original ecology.

There are also forest hunters who came back carrying the pine trees they captured, and seeing the team holding the flag, they subconsciously avoided it.

The leggings relieve the pain of the calf and enable one to walk long distances without pain. Although there is sunshine, the temperature is still low throughout the day, and everyone senses that winter is approaching, and snowfall will come at any time!

This was the first day. They had a great harvest when they returned to their residence. For the first time, Rurik looked around and saw all the farmland of the White Tree Manor. The fields were easy to identify. They were the scars of the forest. Fields, the most abundant fields in the forest, unfortunately are not very coherent with each other.

With the basic understanding, the follow-up work is also easy to carry out.

On the third day, Rurik, who collected a batch of data, drew a structural map of this area, including the city of Novgorod, on a wooden board.

The drawings are still sloppy, and most of the farmland distribution is quite accurate drawn on wooden boards. The girls knew very well about quadrants, and they knew how to draw north and south in cartography, and Rurik didn't have to bother.

He demarcated four quadrants with the city of Novgorod as the center, and each quadrant was divided into two smaller quadrants.

After the seven surveying and mapping groups were stipulated, Rurik led two to deal with it personally, and the remaining six were shared by the girls.

Here is the beginning of Rurik's great project, and it is a painful beginning.

The son was running in the fields, and the daughter-in-law dressed like a boy, pulling an extremely long rope to run.

Otto wanted to help them, but he was indeed getting old, and the physical strength that used to be able to go on foot expeditions is now greatly declining. Is it really the end? Not reconciled!

Otto's patience is limited. When he felt that the surveying and mapping work was boring, he simply returned to his residence and waited for his relatives from afar to come to reunite.

The data that had just been measured had to be put into the calculation immediately, and some wooden boards became the straw paper for the calculation. Rurik didn’t care about the black toner in his hands, so he held the charcoal that had been cut with a knife and checked the data on the wooden board.

The owner of the farmland nervously waited for the result calculated by the Duke himself. He would turn his head over to see what the Lord had written. Seeing this, he was reading a book from the heavens, or in other words, no matter what Rurik did, what the farmer saw was a book from the sky.

The farmers of White Tree Manor, they are still illiterate for half their lives. They should not be like this, but unfortunately no teacher taught them advanced knowledge. Even the concept of a teacher is incredible to them.

The irregular farmland Rurik relies on definite points to calculate the area. Svetlana really admires her husband's ability. Obviously, this is the wisdom of the gods, and her husband is a saint who touches the gods!

She also has a good ability. By dismantling the irregular field patterns into some squares and triangles, the calculation is a little more complicated, and she can still complete the work.

Each surveying and mapping group was doing the same job. The girls in each group worked tirelessly to run around the fields. Every day, they had to consume astonishing physical strength. Fortunately, Rurik had already prepared a completely overdose of logistical supplies. If you are hungry, you will have honey cream oatmeal. If you are thirsty, you will have chrysanthemum tea, pine needle tea, and even Kvass, a local specialty. It was the latter with a trace amount of alcohol, which made them busy, but suddenly regained their energy.

They are all young girls. After a week of continuous surveying and mapping work after receiving the assignment, everyone collected a lot of treasured land information and residents' identity information, but their bodies were still damaged. The white arms have become rough, the hands and soles of the feet have calluses, the muddy mud on the body is amazing, and the hair has become scattered and solidified by crystalline salt.

Only after soaking in the bathtub and washing their hair with soap mixed with flower essential oils did their tired bodies finally relax.

The work of the first week has been completed, and the entire surrounding fields of Novgorod have been calculated this week. Finally, the last data of Rurik, the strongest brain, will be summarized.

A heavy burden was placed on the shoulders of the young duke. Even at night, when a few oil lamps were placed on the table set up by the assault, Rurik still held a charcoal pen to make statistics.

As for Svetlana, she was by her husband's side, her hands were black, and she continued her checking work.

The two looked at each other and said nothing, as did the other girls.

Can a huge amount of data be done with a handful of subordinates? Now there are very few people who can work as scribes, but the farmland around the lake is very large.

Due to outdated agricultural technology, local farmers can only adopt a strategy of wide planting and low harvesting. The measured field data is astonishing. However, the production capacity is really stretched. The climate is one reason, but the biggest reason is the poor technology.

Rurik used the White Tree Manor in Novgorod as his breakthrough point, and he really saw the agricultural life of a traditional European farmer in the ninth century.

A farmer's family raised three or four children, and actually died many of them. The output of grain can be calculated to exceed 3,000 Roman pounds per hectare (a good year). This figure is indeed higher than that of the northern European hometown, but the population here is also large. A farmer's family can have a surplus of grain, so that a batch of farmland is not planted with wheat, but with cabbage, yellow-rooted carrots, and even cold-resistant flax for weaving.

Is the data of White Tree Manor completely reliable?

It's reliable, only partially reliable. This manor has been the first line to undertake the transfer of agricultural technology from Ross for several years. The people have not turned into small farmers, they still cooperate with each other, and a large number of agricultural tools are still easily lent each other, so that everyone farms the land using the crocodile produced by Ross. The plough and the wheat are harvested with scythes from Rus, and the threshing is done with flails with brass rings made by Rus.

Therefore, even if other farms can have more fields than White Tree Manor, their production capacity will inevitably be lower.

Thinking of these inferences, Rurik became more cautious, because he was about to take his subordinates to the fields of the destroyed Pine Needle Manor, measure the area of ​​the farmland there, and make calculations and statistics on the data.

And worse troubles are in sight. The existing writing boards to complete the calculation and demographic information of the White Tree Manor and the Old Pine Needle Manor will be exhausted.

Does it take so much trouble to target other farms? Tired is definitely tired, but the writing material must be innovated!

Rurik thought of the birch trees that can be seen everywhere here, and the corners of his mouth twitched slightly under the oil lamp...

, later generally speaking, until the first snow, it is Xiaoxue. Works were carried out on Novgorod and
