The Knight's Journey to the Empire

Chapter 101 Question 7: Planning territorial towns and rationally arranging functional areas (2)

"Master, do we have to use this manure as fertilizer when we cultivate the land in the future?" Adam frowned and asked reluctantly.

"Is it not possible?" Soran asked back with a frown.

In his entire life on the Knight Continent, he had never farmed, let alone been to the countryside.

But he also knew that there were people in this world who would use this fermented feces as fertilizer for crops.

I just don’t know how well it will be accepted!

"It's possible, but..." Adam was a little helpless: "But the food grown using this method is not very valuable."

"How do you explain this?" Soran looked puzzled.

He really had never heard of such a statement.

After all, in his inherent understanding, the food grown with organic fertilizer is much more valuable than those grown with chemical fertilizer.

"Because crops grown in this way are considered contaminated, the nobles will not eat this kind of food, and even some wealthy civilians will not eat it."

"So this kind of food is usually only eaten by slaves and poor people because it is cheap." Javier explained helplessly.

"This..." Soran was speechless.

He thought that using fermented feces as fertilizer was already a common practice throughout the Knight Continent.

But what I never expected was that people in this world actually had such a deep prejudice against this.

"So what are your respective attitudes towards this?" Soran suddenly asked everyone.

"I won't eat it!" Adam and Javier said firmly almost at the same time.

The other three looked at each other, and then Gubellini spoke first: "There is no such thing as eating or not eating. When you are hungry or have no food, you don't need to worry about so many things!"

Ramos, Henry: “+1”.

They used to be beggars, the lowest level of society.

In daily life, people often go hungry for nine out of ten meals, and the remaining meal is always rotten and moldy.

Because only those who have experienced long-term hunger will understand the value of food.

So there is no need to say anything disdainful.

"Okay, let's do this for now! But we still have to build this manure pit first. I need it very much! And in Flanders Town, it is strictly forbidden to urinate or dump feces and urine anywhere. They must also be arrested!"

“As for what to do in the future, let’s talk about whether to use these fermented feces as fertilizer for farmland!” Seeing this, Sauron had no choice but to resort to this last resort.

He must build a manure composting pit. There is no need to explain the important role of saltpeter.

And this is the only way that Sauron knows to make saltpeter artificially.

If you are worried that the manure pit will be full in the future, you can just mark out a small piece of land around it and use the organic fertilizer to grow crops.

But Soran was not worried. He had lived in the countryside for so long in his previous life, and he had never seen a manure pit overflowing in any household.

"Adam, Gubellini, this is still your mission!"

"Find someone to select a location and build a few public toilets in Flanders Town as soon as possible. Then post a notice to strictly prohibit the residents from urinating or dumping feces and urine anywhere."

"Violators will be fined, and those who refuse to change after repeated warnings will be subject to labor reform!" Sauron began to assign tasks.

"Yes, Master!" Adam accepted the order, but then he asked again: "Master, what is this labor reform?"

Soran thought for a moment and said, "Labor reform, you can understand it as conscripting them to work for free, and giving the dirtiest and most tiring work to those who need labor reform!"

"I understand!" Adam nodded.

"The second step of clearing roads and digging sewers must be carried out simultaneously with the road construction in the territory."

"Spring is coming soon. When the weather warms up, all kinds of smells will come out, and there will be sewage everywhere, flies flying around, and a foul odor..."

“This kind of terrible living environment makes me feel uncomfortable just thinking about it now!” Sauron couldn’t help but feel nauseous, as if he was already in such an environment.

"As for the third step, the workload involved is too large and there are many conflicts that need to be adjusted. It may delay the development of other tasks, so it can be postponed!"

Food should be eaten one bite at a time, and work should be done one task at a time. Sauron also understands this principle.

If all these tasks are put together and something unexpected happens, it will be very troublesome.

.........

"Everyone, today's meeting ends here. We have discussed all the questions raised by everyone. Now, does anyone have anything to add to these questions?" Sauron stood up and asked everyone loudly.

Everyone looked at each other and said in unison: "No!"

"Well, today's meeting is about to end here. Please think carefully about the tasks assigned to you at the meeting after you go back and see if there is anything you can add."

"This is our first collective meeting in the White Bear Territory, and the content of the meeting is very important. Javier, please take the trouble to make a record of today's meeting and store it in the territory's archives for easy reference in the future!"

"Yes, sir!" Javier answered loudly.

"As for the others, I'll give you two days to go back and sort out the content of today's meeting and your respective tasks."

"If you don't understand or have forgotten something, you can ask each other and get each other's answers. In the end, it would be best if you could put it into a document and give it to me for review, or we could discuss it together!"

"And in two days, we will release these contents through an announcement, understand?"

"Understood, young master!" Everyone stood up and responded loudly.

"Okay, now let's adjourn the meeting!" Soran nodded with satisfaction.
