Mstisk is now a large rural area under construction. With the experience of building a city in the past, this new type of city with rivers and lakes will not be chaotic from the beginning of its construction.

It will also quickly evolve into a town, with crossroads and T-shaped intersections inside, and the houses must be independent houses, and the arrangement of each other must be coherent. They will build new woodcuts, new warehouses, and even new dry toilets. The establishment of the sewer system is still too advanced, but the drainage ditches were dug in advance to ensure that the excess water flows directly into the Msti River when it rains.

A new pier near the lake is under construction. A large number of wooden piles have been driven deep into the silt near the shore, but it is still in the spring plowing period, and no one is working here anymore.

There are also some long boats deliberately washing the beach, and there are also a group of local canoes.

As long as you look closely, you can see the swaying figures on the fields, and even the moving deer.

The two large ships approached the shore of the lake before dropping anchor, and their bulbous bows touched the silt.

Lurik looked at Kawei again: "You have to see it for yourself. Just take advantage of it. If you decide you want a field to grow, tell me about it. I... will stay here for a while."

"Forget about farming. I am a blacksmith, not a farmer. I bring tools with me. If the ironwork of my brothers is damaged, I can repair it nearby. Well, I don't think there is a blacksmith's shop in this place."

"You still answer that way? Okay, of course Mstisk needs a blacksmith's shop. Now the apprentices I arranged for you, they can go back to their hometown and work. Let's go, let's disembark." Rurik said with enthusiasm.

A wooden human-powered squirrel-cage crane should be built on the shore, so that bags of seed grain can be quickly unloaded by the principle of leverage.

Rurik didn't want to throw the sacks all by the arms of his brothers. If a bag of wheat fell into the lake and the seeds were planted, the germination rate would also plummet.

The soldiers of the First Banner Team worked all day long. They learned that some family members had returned early. The morale of the entire team was overwhelming. This enthusiasm was invested in the construction and farming of the town.

The Phantom of the Big Ship reappeared on the lake, and the farmers hurriedly suspended their work and poured into the half-repaired dock from all directions.

Kawei paddled his toes and saw the figures approaching him, and their blonde hair was very conspicuous under the sun.

"Haha, our helpers are here!"

Arik, who returned with the boat, couldn't wait even more. He slapped his brother Rürik on the shoulder: "You just complained about building a crane, and you will see it soon."

The First Banner team always showed the image of brave fighters, and as a result, it has now become a large group of mud legs.

Rurik suddenly noticed that some people had their red necks exposed by the sun. They squinted in the warm sun. Everyone was wearing a simple hat. Wouldn't this be a classic European farmer if he put on a straw hat.

At first glance, the spirit of their **** warriors has been covered by the dust on their bodies.

And these "red necks", they saw such a scene!

A group of women in robes cautiously climbed down the rope net of the big ship, and many young children were also holding the ropes with their chubby hands. The women were all carrying bags, and there were bits and pieces hanging on the cloth belts.

On the deck of the ship, some suitcases tied with twine were slowly hoisted down and landed on the boat ready to be picked up.

Women and children are slowly landing.

"That's my woman! That's my child!"

Recognizing the family members, the soldiers of the First Banner Team rushed forward bravely, and jumped out of the lake over knees with joy, and continued to wading forward to gather with their families.

Dozens of people saw their family members, and they really didn't want to urge anymore. The soldiers had spontaneously launched a response operation. Knowing that their family members can land ashore very smoothly and quickly, as for the heavy weight landing, you can wait a little while.

They were the daughters nourished by Lake Ilmen. They thought that being forced to marry the Ross people was a lifelong departure from their hometown. After only a few years, they returned with their children.

However, doesn't the lakeside that I stand on belong to that arrogant and powerful Pine Needle Manor? There was a terrible battle here last year.

There are no traces of war, nor the sprawling buildings of Pine Needle Manor. There are only farms being opened by the Ross men, roaming deer, and a city under construction.

The finalists of Pine Needle Manor know a little bit about it. They can't make associations because they haven't seen the horrible post-war scenes. They don't understand and instinctively don't want to understand those things.

Actually? The huge mound is not far away, and there are also obvious markers there.

Women with only dozens of brothers came, and some brothers even had two women with multiple children. Even some of the brothers and their mothers also came to make peace with their old father who served in the Second Banner. This is the so-called sale of the hometown's real estate and emigration with a soft family.

This kind of decisive action of people seems to be a very good sign in Rurik's view. He can't help but re-examine his understanding of "relocation". His own concept of Eastern homeland seems to be unfavorable to the Viking people. Applicable, the people of their own people behaved more decisively than they thought.

Fortunately dozens of brothers spent their first night in the new world with their family members from afar in their new house. A family guards a one-hectare field. The oats in the personal field have been sown. The family has a large amount of money and surplus grain, which is enough to ensure that the family waits for the wheat harvest safely.

The soldiers who couldn't settle down were still working. They were cutting wood to build their own houses, and by the way, they asked for land from the forest to open up new private fields. Hunting operations are also going along the way. They control the crossbow again to sweep the red squirrels jumping around in the forest. The prince arrived at the right time, and a batch of squirrel skins dried by the campfire was just sold directly.

Today’s days full of hope are given by the perfect prince. They are all willing to do things for the prince Liulik. This is not only out of their own wishes, but also because the prince always speaks of credibility and will definitely be rewarded.

A group of laborers were easily assembled. In the evening, more than 300 strong men or wooden poles carried on their shoulders, or they carried bundles of hemp rope, newly woven rattan rope, or even drove multiple reindeer to tow and fell. The big pine poles of the pine are assembled towards the pier.

Overnight, wood and rope built a human crane.

On the second day since Rurik arrived, an astonishing amount of wheat seeds began to be transported to the shore where the grass germinated through the nets of this crane, and they were carried to the two-wheeled trolley by the strong man...

Do people still need to teach me about farming?

Old Ross people in the past did not disdain to grow wheat, but conditions did not allow it. A small amount of cabbage and onions can be grown in Roseburg’s home fjord, although a sudden cold snap may wipe out the efforts of months.

The young people of the First Banner team here accepted the guidance of the old farmers of White Tree Manor. Coupled with the advanced farming and planting integrated "fool-type" farm tools, spring plowing is not a problem at the technical level, it is just a matter of physical exertion.

According to the contract, Rurik ordered his wives and concubines to divide the first squad brothers into proper fertile fields. They are all close to the lake, and they are most moisturized by the infiltration of lake water, and they can also absorb some silt nutrients. There are still a large number of fields that have not been allocated. Except for a batch of low-fertility fields, there are deliberately vacated fields that are in urgent need of growing wheat.

All the wheat seeds were transported in the morning, and the panting soldiers of the First Banner were summoned by Rurik.

Everyone stared at Master Rurik standing on a wheelbarrow, listening to his preaching, hoping to take the opportunity to make another money.

"Brothers! The deadline for spring plowing is coming to an end. We still have a lot of fields to plant! You have allotted your own fields, and you have completed your own farming. Now one of you is counted as one, and you Women and children of China, I need your labor! The wheat and oats must all be planted. For our autumn harvest, all of us will go together! You must pay attention, we are fighting a brand new war, and we have to win the battle. Fight for the hungry enemy, for the food we can't eat!"

These words said that the plane was too big, and there was always a little hollow.

Rurik changed his mind and yelled again with a smile: "Brothers! Do you like to drink ale and your own kvass? You like it very much! But they require a lot of wheat to brew. Now plant for me, I A barrel of delicious ale will be returned to each of your households. Of course, I will also give silver coins!"

They seldom have the opportunity to drink a drink. The pure river water has a fishy smell. Now, because of the popularity of princes in the past, the boiled chrysanthemum water for picking and drying chrysanthemums has become a normalized drink. And boiled pine needle water is another traditional beverage, which suppresses the fishy taste with bitterness.

Not to mention what a good drink is, they prefer mellow ale. Now the slightly sweet and sour kvass is another choice, followed by high-end mead.

Obviously, ale is a kind of drink that everyone likes with a high price-performance ratio. The only problem is the lack of raw materials. Unless there is a bumper harvest in these fields this year.

In order to drink, in order to eat a steady stream of wheat, Rurik easily assembled a group of laborers.

He is now under his command not only in the work of the First Banner, but also part of the farmland here in the form of trophies to allied farms. The farmers of the farms have finished farming and heard that the land of the princes is in urgent need of labor, so they have come to help with a reward. !

Rurik did come prepared this time. The famous blacksmith Kawi's presence immediately built the most traditional earthen stove, repaired the dull axe of the brothers, and even made the shovel sharper, and even came to quench it. Heat treatment.

After the plough, the columbine was filled with wheat. Many reindeer ploughs swept across the fertile fields under the lead of many reindeer. The soft soil was buried in a striped array of wheat. The speed of planting has rewritten the local agriculture.

The Old Pine Needle Manor is the largest acre in this area, and they are basically consistent with each other. Good fields grow wheat, poor fields continue to grow oats.

He has enough planting food on hand, and Rurik has full confidence in using it. He is not a waste of money. It seems that he has used amazing seed food for planting food. The more advanced planting method is actually more economical than the traditional high-density planting mode of the locals. a lot of.

Time is only the tenth day of May in the Julian calendar, and the entire field of Mstisk has been planted successfully.

Rurik agreed that neither the brothers nor his family were lazy, and that both men and women received two silver coins.

Isn't this money scarce? Very few, after all, Lurik promised to have a barrel of ale in the future!

The prince and the queen are plowing, and the feet of a group of young wives and concubines in the prince’s peace are also full of mud. They enjoy the fun of working together, just like living together in the hometown of Roseburg, and fighting side by side on the battlefield. Money is required, and it doesn't matter how much it means.

It is as if Odin is sheltering his people who believe in him, and Rülik in the Ilmen Lake region is the last to finish spring ploughing. When everyone finished their most tiring work for only three days, the rain began.

Rurik had returned to Novgorod at this moment, and the ground became wet overnight. He couldn't feel the cold, but the intoxicating warmth.

The rain caused Rurik, who was working continuously, to "broke the brakes" forcibly. For three months, he ran around the large area from the Neva River to the Ilmen Lake, not only rarely had a good rest, but now he can finally be quiet. Let's make some plans for some future issues.

Everyone knows that the action concerning the great immigration of the Duchy of Ross has begun. The huge fleet will return to Roseburg during the warm period, and the sailors who are leisurely working as urban construction labor and making money in Novgorod and Shilla Fort will return again. Their old line of business. This is only the itinerary that Rurik himself must participate in. Those soldiers of the First Banner that have settled down have transformed into fishermen. They will fish for perch on Lake Ilmen, and even drift along the Volkhov River. Big Lake Ladoga to fish for ferocious and extremely plump giant pike.

In terms of plundering the environment, the local Slavs are not as capable of action as the Rus.

Rurik was determined to convene a meeting on the spot for future actions, especially to assign a series of tasks to his wives and concubines who acted as field surveyors, priests, and paper laborers, as well as to Dmitry, the governor of Novgorod. Waite gave a clear task. Of course, Mstisk, a rapidly expanding city of Ross immigrants, exercises autonomy under the supervision of Arik in accordance with the Nordic customary law, just like the living conditions in the hometown of Rossburg.

Before the meeting, the little fat guy, Blue Fox, was happily invited to the bedroom by Rurik himself to discuss certain things in detail.

This is a secret conversation, it must be something related to business! Whenever I think that I can continue to make a fortune, I don’t think much of happiness.

In fact, Rurik did not invite him alone, and the Blue Fox also noticed that a simple cross painted black with toner was hung on the front entrance of an independent, small woodcut in Novgorod.

John Invall, this young man of the same age as Rurik sat in the house in a black robe. UU Reading www.uukanshu.com Rurik allowed this person to hang the silver cross pendant openly on his chest.

The expensive spring rain made the blue fox a little damp. He walked into the residence of the prince, took off his boots obediently, and walked into Rurik's house with his belly and bare feet.

"My lord! I'm here for the appointment," he said.

As a result, based on the experience of the blue fox, he did not expect that Prince Rurik was still holding a sleeping child in his arms. This kid? Could it be?

When Blue Fox arrived in Novgorod, he looked at the city from the perspective of a businessman. His eyes were always observing some details, hoping to explore some business opportunities. He saw that the old lord Otto had been playing with his granddaughter happily, but the old queen Niya was holding a baby baby very strangely, obviously it was a baby boy.

The strange thing was that he felt that there was something missing in this place, and the prince's family was happy, but he really couldn't tell what was missing. A closer look at the eyebrows of the prince Rurik seemed to reveal a little regret.

The prince is kind, but he will never hug other people's children, so this baby must be related to the prince by blood.

Well? Could it be that his Svetlana has given birth to him the heir of the Principality? I can't.
