180. Chapter 180 Demographics

    Roland has recently been immersed in a happy mood.

    Even when he is sitting alone in the office, he will occasionally slap two small songs, recalling the good times in the hot air balloon basket.

    Anna’s eyes closed as if she was too cute, just thinking about it would make him unable to hold his mouth. And the most important is the meaning of her words, has revealed the hot emotions.

    The only thing he could do at the time was to respond to her more enthusiastically.

    So when it landed, Roland felt that his lips were faint and painful.

    Probably a kiss that was too long for her to breathe poorly, and used teeth when she was in a panic?

    In any case, this feeling has not been experienced for a long time.

    When life is close to a quarter, the skills that seem to come from TV movies and novels have finally come into use, and the object is still so beautiful, Miss Anna, Roland feels that she has finally taken the first place in life. step.

    He took a breath and sat down. He reached into the drawer and tried to chew the snacks to calm the joy. The result was a touch of the air – these beef jerks were clearly put in yesterday.

    Roland looked back at Nightingale, who was squatting by the window, who whistled and pretended to look at the scenery casually. I deliberately changed the dried fish into beef jerky, just to prevent Nightingale from stealing. I didn’t expect her to come to the beef jerky.

    Just then, a footstep sounded outside the door.

    “His Royal Highness, Sir Barov asks.”

    “Let him come in.”

    Nightingale didn’t hide his body as he used to, but pulled down Hood and sat down on the recliner next to the wall.

    Assistant Minister pushed in and saw other people in the office. He paused for a while, but quickly recovered his normal look.

    “His Royal Highness, this month’s demographics have already been made.”He handed a roll of parchment.

    “So fast?”

    “With the citizen registration file, it’s much more convenient now,” Assistant Minister laughed. “Your previous decision was a wise move.”

    Oh, now I’m starting to flatter…Roland spread the paper roll and saw that the above is different according to the profession of the Border Town people. It will be arranged in a number of categories and it will look clear at a glance. Barov’s ability has also been greatly improved in contrast to reports that have not been separated even when they are crossed.

    The first line is also the largest group, serfs, currently a total of 3,628 people (including family members). There is also a line of notes underneath: the number of serfs engaged in farming is 1,500.

    “His Royal Highness, is the population of farming a little too small?”Barov pointed to the first article, “According to Seney Eric of Ministry of Agriculture, if you want to make small town no longer import food, I am afraid that you have to double the farmland and manpower to meet Border Town’s food needs. ”

    Roland has some impression on the name Seney and should be a Wolf of the Wolf Family. The 1,500 people who were engaged in farming were the first group of serfs that were sent, and the subsequent batches were transferred to the mine or Karl’s construction team by Roland – they also got the same guarantee, as long as they worked hard for a while. Time can be promoted to free person.

    “I didn’t plan to be self-sufficient in food this year. Now there are a lot of wheat stored in the castle warehouse, enough for two or three months. Moreover, the wheat that is newly planted this year is not the same. ”

    “Not much the same?”Barov stunned.

    “Well, you will know when you get there,” Roland smiled. That is the Leaf modified Golden No. 1. The yield per plant is at least three times higher than that of ordinary wheat. It will definitely surprise everyone when it is harvested. This is why he does not want to put too much population into agriculture. With Leaf’s magic crop, only a few farmers can support most citizens in the future, thus saving valuable human natural resources and investing in industrial development and urban construction.

    He continued to look down.

    The second line of parchment is the builder. The following remarks are very complicated. There are Stonemason, tiler, Mud craftsmen, carpenter, handyman and so on. The total number is more than 1,100, the vast majority of which are handymans used by serfs. It is also because of the joining of these new forces that Border Town can quickly build a batch of residential areas and workshops – templating, batching, and programming the building is an important means of accelerating construction progress. Although in Roland’s eyes, this speed is still not enough, but for the locals, it has been considered shocking.

    The third line is the mining staff.

    Much like the construction industry above, the Border Town has been reduced to 25 local residents, mainly working on Steam engine operations, mining registration and management. The remaining 1,600 people were outsiders, including the mercenary captured in the battle of Longsong Stronghold and the serfs sent later.

    “The mining site has had several recent fighting incidents,” Barov said. “The main contradiction between mercenaries and serfs is a hidden danger, Your Highness. They are too many people, and once they get into trouble, they can’t be controlled by 25 managers alone. I recommend that the First Army be responsible for assisting the guards. ”

    “Well…” Roland thought for a moment. “Just do it. Now there are not enough people, and there is no way to form a police force. I will tell Iron Axe that a team of about 50 people should be enough. ”

    Police officerDos

    “You can understand it as a patrol, but the scope of the squad is much larger. Basically, the internal security is done by them.”This era is not divided into internal violence and external violence, so letting the military take charge of law and order will not become its own black history. Before solving the huge enemy of Church, he did not intend to disperse manpower to form a second set of violent machines.

    In fourth place is the Border Town First Army.

    After the end of the stronghold battle, the First Army’s prestige resounded throughout the Western Region – 300 people defeated the 1,500-year-old Duke coalition at a very small price, leaving the stronghold nobles with the courage to resist. After the merits, Roland doubled the size of the First Army to 600 people. This time, the recruiting list has just been sent out, and the town name that is eagerly registered is packed with the entire square. In accordance with the concept of the people’s army and the people, Roland still selected three hundred indigenous people with good quality and no criminal record, joining First Army.

    The rest are all kinds of technicians.

    For example, in the smelting and firing industry, the number of people has increased significantly in the past month, from the initial 20 to about 400. Thanks to the “furnace expert” Lowes, the Northern Slope furnace group can not only produce red bricks, but also fire cement and glass. At the same time, three shaft furnaces are being set up. Soon after, the ore placed in the yard can be first smelted through the shaft furnace and then transported to the required place.

    As for education, chemistry, industry, and animal husbandry, the total number is less than 50. Therefore, from the perspective of demographics, Border Town still has a long way to go. However, the small town, which originally consisted of hunter and miners as the main population, could become this appearance in half a year, which is already called earth-shaking.

    Nowadays, hunters have basically disappeared, hunting has become a hobby by survival, and people who are involved in the joining First Army or the smelting industry are still in the small town. Nearly a thousand people are still unemployed. After the completion of the literacy part of the universal education, Roland decided to pull these citizens into the factory and start the industrial production.
