In the wasteland four or five miles away from the village.

A thousand people were busy with various iron farming tools in hand.

The tools forged from high-quality iron were remarkably sharp.

Those clumps of weeds and thorns were instantly cut down to the root by the scythe.

Only the roots remained deeply embedded in the soil.

When another group of villagers arrived, the broad iron hoes came down, directly uprooting them...

These may look like weeds but hold different values.

Among them were not only herbs but also wild straw.

The herbs could be used for making decoctions, while the straw and some hay could feed poultry and livestock.

Moreover, they could even be used as fuel for lighting fires.

Even those small stones could be taken back and made into simple grinding tools.

Everything has its use.

Especially in such a resource-scarce world!

A thousand villagers lined up, continuously clearing into the distance.

The speed of each person wasn't much different.

If one stood from a high place, it was clear to see.

It was like a disordered sheet of paper being smoothed out and cleaned.

It gave an inexplicable sense of comfort and relief.

...

Lynn, aiming to gain level experience, was naturally among those doing the clearing.

Lynn stood upright, glancing back.

An hour passed.

Behind him, there was already a large area of cleared open space.

Lynn roughly estimated.

A thousand villagers with scythes and other iron tools cleared for an hour with full effort.

The area of wasteland cleared was about two hundred mu!

At this rate, excluding the one hour of lunch and the gradual physical decline with labor.

In one day, at most four hundred mu of wasteland could be cleared!

It is now the end of September.

In the climate of the Karedi Empire, the latest to start sowing winter wheat is by the end of October!

That is to say.

The time left for them to reclaim farmland is less than thirty days.

Calculating for thirty days, they could clear nearly forty thousand mu of wasteland!

And one wheel plow could cultivate fifteen mu of wasteland a day...

Now on the land, there were a hundred and forty wheel plows.

After that, following the normal pace was completely sufficient!

Lynn's gaze extended far ahead.

There, the villagers were driving oxen, dragging the wheel plows towards their direction.

The speed was even, requiring hardly any effort.

The importance of the lime road was evident once again.

To become prosperous, roads must first be built!

Retracting his gaze, Lynn went back to clearing the weeds.

All the way until afternoon.

Lynn walked directly towards the nearby temporary huts.

Under the huts, barrels of beer and cool well water were placed.

For the villagers' drinking, to replenish their bodies with water.

Taking a few gulps of well water, Lynn let out a comfortable burp.

Gazing forward.

The clearing of weeds in the front was ongoing, while behind, villagers had already started cultivating with oxen.

Despite being drawn by two oxen, the speed of cultivation still could not match the speed of clearing.

Both were almost keeping just a safe distance apart.

After a short rest.

Lynn began walking back towards the village.

On the broad and flat lime road in front of the village, pea plants were being sun-dried.

After several days of basking in the sun, the pods had already turned yellow and curled.

Even as Lynn walked by, the sound of pods popping and peas rolling could be heard.

Ahead, villagers in pairs drove draft horses, dragging stone rollers back and forth over the pea plants.

With so many villagers on the territory now, creating a few stone rollers didn't take much time.

But the existence of stone rollers greatly enhanced the efficiency of pea threshing.

Stone roller threshing indeed crushed some peas, but compared to quick threshing, reduced labor input and increased efficiency.

Crushing some peas didn't matter at all.

Even the crushed peas could be swept up to feed poultry and livestock.

In just a few days, the last of these sun-dried and threshed peas could be stored in the warehouse.

The villagers threshing noticed Lynn approaching and quickly bowed, respectfully greeting him.

"Master Lynn."

"Master Lynn..."

"..."

Lynn responded with a nod, "Hmm, you all continue with your work."

As he spoke, Lynn had already walked past them.

Watching the receding figure of Master Lynn, seven or eight villagers were full of surprise and admiration.

This was their first time greeting Master Lynn.

Unexpectedly, he was so approachable!

Walking on the lime road, Lynn's thoughts stirred, opening the [Resource Management] panel.

In the [Grain Crops] section, the number of peas had already increased to nearly eight hundred thousand pounds!

Plus the peas still drying and yet to be stored.

Planting three thousand mu of peas could yield nine hundred thousand pounds.

That's over three hundred pounds of peas per mu.

Comparing this to the over one hundred pounds per mu harvested with the current world's broadcasting planting technique.

This pea planting was indeed a bountiful harvest!

As long as no merchants delivered a large number of slaves afterward, this batch of peas was enough to support the villagers in his territory through the year stably!
