Fantasy Lord: Starting with the Pioneer Knight

Chapter 169 The canal is opened and thousands of hectares of farmland

Under normal circumstances, since he has become a pioneer knight, Thor will not ask for help from his family, but that is only a general situation, and it is naturally not the case now. Such huge profits can only be swallowed up by himself and the Eagle Chamber of Commerce. , is almost tantamount to wishful thinking.

As he said, the Dressrosa family can indeed maintain such huge interests now, but only if he can maintain it.

In this case, Thor naturally could not persist.

I wrote a letter a few days ago.

I hope that my father can support two or even three earth knights.

At that time, coupled with the breakthrough of Marshall, he will have at least three earth knights under his banner, and he will have a certain degree of confidence even in the face of the counterattack of those powerful nobles.

As for letting everyone from the Eagle Chamber of Commerce also contribute.

That's about building a whole.

The Eagle Chamber of Commerce belongs to him and to these pioneering lords.

He cannot be the only one working hard, these people also need to work hard.

Thor wouldn't just charge alone.

As for Thor's proposal, everyone present had no objections.

In particular, Thor also thought of the threat of divine enlightenment and could suggest waiting for divine enlightenment before taking action, which would not be a problem.

Even with this excuse, the family will only be able to provide more support.

Because that means they made the right bet.

So soon, everyone reached a unanimous opinion.

They all agreed.

After handling this matter, Thor was immediately ready to set off.

Just before he set off.

Another thing also came to an end.

Thor also had to postpone his trip again.

Because of this moment.

After several months, Kuwait’s canal development plan has been completed.

A huge existence running through the Eagle Territory appeared in the center of Eagle Town and Falcon Town. It was more than ten meters wide, more than three meters deep, and its spread was more than twenty miles long.

All it takes is to open the mouth of the upstream river, and the water of the Maine River will spread down from this newly opened channel, and finally converge to the Maine River downstream after more than 20 miles.

Early in the morning.

Thor was taken to the mouth of the river by Kuwait.

At this moment, a dense flow of people has gathered here.

A large number of slaves were smiling, except for Kuwait, who could not hide the excitement on his face.

Over the course of a few months, his skin became darker and darker, but he was also more energetic.

"Sir, do this last step!"

Kuwait was excited and then spoke to Thor respectfully.

"OK!"

Thor nodded slightly without any hesitation.

Then he walked to the magic crystal cannon in front of him.

The Thunder Stone brought back from Pat City has now turned into three magic crystal cannons again, and this is one of them.

And because the materials are better, the power of the three subsequent magic crystal cannons is undoubtedly more powerful.

One is almost comparable to more than two of the magic crystal cannons of the past.

A second-level magic core appeared in his hand, and without any hesitation, Thor stuffed the second-level magic core directly into it.

As the second-order magic core was inserted, the entire magic crystal cannon lit up with a light blue magic array at this moment.

"boom!"

The next moment, a dazzling light rose into the sky from the magic crystal cannon and rushed directly towards the mouth of the river in the distance.

"Boom!"

A huge explosion sounded, and then thunder began to flash at the river mouth.

As the terrifying power poured out, the thick soil at the mouth of the river disintegrated directly.

Accompanied by soil disintegration.

The next moment, a majestic stream of water suddenly poured down, swooping directly towards the dug river channel.

"boom!"

"Boom!"

The river is rushing, carrying great momentum.

Vast and vast.

There was no obstruction, and only the roaring sound was heard in everyone's ears.

And if you look down from a high altitude, you can see that the water flow is like a long dragon, spreading rapidly along the dug river.

The speed is getting faster and faster, and a large amount of soil is washed away.

At the same time, the entire river gradually began to take shape.

"good!"

Feeling the river in the distance, until the roaring sound gradually became smaller, Thor couldn't help but speak with satisfaction, and even patted Kuwait's shoulder with his right hand.

Although Kuwait had previously said that it would be completed within two months.

But Thor didn't expect that the other party had already completed it in just two months, and the effect of the completion was extremely good.

He had just seen the topographical map.

As this river spreads down, the twenty or thirty miles along its path will be turned into fertile soil, and it will further reduce the possibility of flooding in Maine rivers.

Although this kind of relief is only for the upstream, the downstream cannot be affected.

But this is enough.

After all, he doesn't need to worry about the downstream.

"Let's go!"

"It's time to plan carefully. I want to hear your next plan!"

Thor smiled and then looked at Kuwait.

"Yes, sir!"

Kuwait was equally excited.

The two then returned to the Eagle Territory.

Return to the castle.

Thor asked the maid to prepare a map of the Eagle Territory.

Compared to the previous map, the map at this moment is undoubtedly much clearer. In addition, there is also a huge line running through the north and south, which is the newly opened Eagle River.

"Sir, a total of 1,423 Goblin slaves died when we opened this Eagle River. Another 23 slaves were slightly injured and three were seriously injured."

"The current total length of this river is twenty-seven miles."

Kuwait spoke respectfully and slowly told the story of the losses incurred during the opening of the canal and the condition of the canal.

"Twenty-three slaves, let Joseph register them and give them five merit points. Three of them are seriously injured and given twenty merit points."

Thor nodded, pondered for a moment, and then answered.

Thor will generally give a lot of preferential treatment to those who have made efforts and paid for the construction of the territory.

For example, this time, in two months, according to the working hours, even if the canal is opened, the slaves will gain more merit points, but it is still not much.

In the merit system set by Thor, free people can only obtain merit points by helping the lord in construction, while serfs are fixed at a certain point every year. Unless there is a war or unexpected events, they can obtain additional merit points.

The opening of the canal was considered an accident, and the merit points awarded were one point per month. The longest was three months, which meant three merit points.

Three merit points are already a lot for slaves, and it took them almost three years of hard work to obtain them.

It's only been three months now.

But becoming a free citizen is still a long way off.

For those who were seriously injured, there were twenty more points. With the previous efforts, they could basically get rid of their slave status.

This is also the opportunity Thor gives these people.

It is precisely because of these dawns that the entire Eagle Territory, whether free people or slaves, is full of hope, which is completely different from the lifelessness in other places.

Other pioneering lords might give serfs opportunities, but even becoming freemen might not bring much change.

But Thor is different. Once a serf becomes a free citizen, he is eligible to join the Knights of the Eagle, which is enough for his family to complete a class jump.

This point is extremely important.

It was attractive enough even for serfs, let alone freedmen.

Even if they have become knights, more merit points are enough to make them practice faster, which is also full of attraction.

This is the core of the entire Thor system.

Of course, this is only for the human race. Thor naturally doesn't care about Goblin slaves.

These things are consumables.

With the goblin's reproductive ability, it's not a big deal if it's exhausted, just keep catching it.

With Anna here, there is no need to even think about saving.

A slave contract was enough to solve most problems.

"Yes, sir!"

"I'll do it later!"

Kuwait nodded respectfully and also ignored the Goblin slave.

"OK!"

"Tell me about your next plan!"

Thor nodded with satisfaction and then spoke again.

Opening the canal is not the key, the key lies in the subsequent development of the entire Eagle Territory farmland.

According to Kuwait's previous description, it was possible to reclaim two thousand hectares of farmland.

Thor was extremely concerned about this moment.

After all, food is the foundation of a territory, especially for a lord who wants to develop.

"Sir, look!"

"The Eagle River runs through the entire north and south, and its spread reaches twenty-seven miles. The territory can rely on this to spread the water channel to the entire north and this area in the east."

"At present, I have preliminary plans to develop this area. I believe that the area of ​​this area alone is enough to reach 2,000 hectares. If it needs to be extended in the future, it can continue to the east. The entire area is a plain area. There won’t be any obstacles. It couldn’t develop before because there wasn’t enough water. Now the Eagle River is spreading through it and it just needs further diversion.”

"The only problem is the dry season. Once the dry season occurs, these places may be affected to some extent, but the impact will not be big. Your Majesty has built a dam on the upper reaches of the Maine River. During the dry season, you only need to divert the water down, which should be enough to satisfy this area. Farming areas, and reservoirs can also be established in these places to further divert water during the flood season and be used as backup reservoirs during the dry season.”

Listening to Thor's words, Kuwait looked excited. He slightly sorted out the thoughts that had already existed in his mind, and then began to point to the map and start talking.

Regarding the entire next plan, Kuwait has obviously already had ideas on how to expand the cultivated farmland after the Eagle River is opened.

It has even been perfected.

It is extremely clear to tell at this moment.

Even Thor couldn't help but his eyes lit up as he listened.

I have to say that Kuwait’s idea is extremely perfect.

Even progressively.

With the successful development of the Eagle River, if Kuwait's plan continues, it may be possible to utilize most of the entire Eagle Territory.

By then, let alone two thousand hectares, there is a possibility of even ten thousand hectares.

Thinking of those ten thousand hectares of land, Thor couldn't help but breathe a little heavier.

That is 10,000 hectares of land, which is almost one million acres of land. Even with the current grain production, one acre is about 300 pounds, and one million acres is 300 million pounds.

Coupled with the nearly 10,000 hectares of land currently owned by the entire Eagle Territory, that is a food production of 600 million pounds.

This grain output is enough to make one's scalp tingle.

At least at this moment, no noble lord in the entire Northland Province can achieve such a large-scale grain production.

Even Thor couldn't help but breathe heavily.

In particular, he has not forgotten that now he has an additional elf girl. As a forest elf, Avila has a way to increase food production on a large scale.

If they are carried out at the same time, the grain output may not be 600 million pounds, but one billion or two billion pounds are possible.

Such a result is exciting even just thinking about it.

"Sir, this is what I am thinking at the moment."

"This first step should take about a year, and it will most likely take about three years to completely complete it."

Thor was excited, and Kuwait's voice gradually ended. After speaking, he couldn't help but look at Thor with a hint of nervousness in his eyes.

This time his plan was extremely huge, and so was the time and manpower it took. He could only continue with Thor's support.

"Three years!"

"Can!"

"Those people will continue to be at your disposal, and I will ask Joseph to send three thousand Goblin slaves to you again."

Thor's thoughts returned, he pondered for a moment, and then nodded in agreement.

For other lords, spending three years on a series of such large construction projects may not be acceptable.

After all, although food is hard currency, in terms of income, it is really not as fast as mines, or even as fast as hunting monsters. With this time, it is better to find mines or hunt monsters.

But it's different for Thor.

He was preparing to take root here, so he was extremely concerned and even willing to spend a higher price.

"Thank you, sir."

"I will complete all construction within three years!"

Listening to Thor's affirmative words, Kuwait's originally nervous expression could not help but breathe a sigh of relief at this moment, and spoke with a hint of excitement.

"Work hard!"

Thor smiled and nodded.
