our family is gone

Chapter 108
It seems that the threat of the evil god is not limited to Hamlet, and all kinds of strange things are showing up all over the world.

In other words, human beings living in this world are being violated by extraordinary forces all the time, but these things are covered up by the church and the imperial officials, and ordinary people don't know.

Difficult~
Lance frowned in thought, and Disma and the others fell silent for a while.

"Go and call me Susan and Walter, and I will announce the layout of the territory."

Soon everyone gathered around the table.

"You are the person in charge of the territory who can stand here today. Next, I will explain what the territory will do next. I hope you will not let me down."

Lance didn't talk nonsense and unfolded the map he just drew in front of everyone.

"To put it simply, there are only three things that the territory needs to do next. First, continue to promote urban planning and renovation projects; second, measure the original fields and reclaim wasteland; third, form caravans to resume foreign exchanges."

After finishing speaking, Lance looked at everyone.

"Barton, I will hand over the blueprint of the project to you. You will be responsible for follow-up. Next, we will mainly repair those houses in the southern district that was destroyed by bandits. If the structure is damaged, we will demolish and rebuild. I need to be able to Do you have any problems with housing thousands of people?"

"No!" Barton replied in response. He could feel that this task had a special meaning for him.

Rebuilding those buildings destroyed by him is also a chance to redeem himself.

Lance didn't understand why Patton was so serious. The reason for entrusting this task to him was that he was from a military academy. It was impossible for him not to understand the blueprints. Apart from himself, few people could understand those blueprints.

But he didn't care, and raised his finger on the map instead.

"Water, you are in charge of measuring all the land and registering it, and mobilizing the prisoners to reclaim wasteland around the town. I will ask Barristan to lead the soldiers to assist. Susan, you are responsible for managing the logistics."

Speaking of which, Lance set his eyes on the map again, and raised his hand to draw the distance from Hamlet to Owendo.

"I, Disma and Leonard will lead ten soldiers to form a caravan to Owendor, sell the resources produced in the territory and bring back the needed supplies."

The fingertip swiped from Owendo to Totnes in the next second.

"Reynard and the soldiers are responsible for escorting the supplies back, and Disma and I will go to Totnes by boat, and then I will bring back about a thousand refugees, so do you understand my arrangement?"

Lance's logic is very simple. If you want to develop, you must have someone.

Where do people come from?
There are refugees everywhere, and the refugees who can reach Totnes must have undergone screening to directly exclude the old, weak, sick and disabled.

And people need food and lodging, and at the same time you have to give them fields to cultivate or stable jobs.

Therefore, the land measurement is to prepare for the land distribution later, and the land reclamation and renovation projects will bring a lot of jobs, so that they will have something to do.

As long as this batch of population is consumed, he will be able to advance towards the dungeon, otherwise, the town with less than 1000 people will not be able to support his actions at all.

develop!develop!Still developing!

"Do you have any questions?"

"My lord, I must remind you that even if Hamlet's land is fertile, it will take at least a year for the barren land to become arable land, and two years for the first crop to mature. Do we have to support those refugees before that?"

Susan was worried that the lord would not know these things, so she reminded her specially.

"I don't plan to sell food. The goods brought by the caravan this time are mainly wool, linen, refined salt, and pickled sea fish. The food in the town is completely enough for consumption."

Speaking of Lance, he sighed, "Drought in several provinces in the central part of the empire led to no harvest throughout the year and famine. Now countless victims are fleeing to the surrounding areas. You have also been hungry and you should know that feeling. Now we can save as much as we can." Save as much, after all, they are all human beings."

Lance doesn't show overly calculated calculations at all, and the emotion in which he says these words is genuine in a way.

Refugees can speed up the development of Hamlet, and at the same time save a group of people, why not do it~
When Walter heard this, he realized that the lord had asked himself how long the granary would last. It turned out that he had already considered helping the refugees.

He really hadn't seen this kind of noble lord very much, and the remaining resistance in his heart was also dissipated.

Originally, he was only forced to join because of force, but now he really admires Lance, and maybe Hamlet will be great again in his hands.

Thinking of this, he sincerely put forward his opinion to the lord.

"grown ups……"

Lance just proposed a general direction, and there must be many problems to be solved.

Detailed plans and arrangements were gradually formed during everyone's discussions, and Walter and Barton were far more insightful than the others, so they were more capable of making suggestions and solving problems.

Now Lance has finally realized the importance of an administrative talent to the territory. After all, he was an ordinary person in his previous life, and in this life he is a scholar who has never been out of an academy, and has no experience in governance at all.

"Okay, that's basically it for now, everyone go back and think about the specific situation, and come to me if you have any questions."

Lance ended the meeting that decided the future development direction of the territory.

In the past, he hated meetings because he just listened to the leader's nonsense.

But now after experiencing it, I realize that brainstorming is indeed an efficient method. The real problem is not the form of the meeting, but the people~
Everyone had something to do to go away, but Barton was left behind by him using the blueprint as an excuse.

Barton had seen a big city with a population of 10, so he didn't pay much attention to a small town until Lance took out the blueprint and explained it. The modern design idea shocked him a lot.

Those sewer systems that only appear in big cities, unique sewage treatment systems, and independent toilets...

Now even walking on some streets in Totnes is likely to be "shit-drenched", and only those rich areas have special people to clean them.

Of course, Lance couldn't just keep Barton just for this, he still needs more information about Totnes.

"You live in Totnes, tell me about it."

Barton explained the situation without any hesitation.

Totnes is divided into three districts: Inner, Middle and Outer.

The inner city and the middle city are separated by the first city wall built at the beginning. The inner city is a typical wealthy area with excellent environment and good security. Most of the people living in it are rich and powerful people.
