Since I was reincarnated as a poor farmer in another world, I decided to lay bricks and build a castle

"All right, we're going to do a test."

"It's a test site, Ars."

"Whatever you say, the precinct is a precinct, brother Byte. It's about getting a good look at the size of the land and finding out how much it's yielding."

"Hmm. I'm a pass. I'm not good at calculating like you."

After I finished spreading brick making and magic mushroom cultivation to give jobs to people who don't have farmland.

In the meantime, magic mushrooms won't be able to be grown soon, but bricks can be made as long as they have magic, which makes some money.

So, once we set aside the people without farmland, we decided to deal with the farmland ownership as well.

The one with the farmland will probably stay that way and farm.

Just because we can use magic doesn't mean that everyone wants to go to battlefield, but rather that many people want to farm as much as they want by getting agricultural magic.

But there's a problem here.

With magic like the [soil improvement] I gave you, the problem is that the yield will grow exponentially.

In previous tax payment methods, the village chief collected and kept the village harvest and handed it over to the tax collector.

But it's impossible to pay me the same amount as before.

Definitely more to harvest, so that would be natural.

But that's not why we simply need to increase the amount of wheat we pay taxes on.

Whatever you say, farmers are reluctant to be taken by the powerful for the wheat they make.

If that turns me into a ruler, what would you say if there were more to be taken immediately?

Wouldn't you look good, even if there was the fact that the harvest was increasing?

So I decided to do a test site once again.

It also makes sense to appeal that examining the area of agricultural land and clarifying how much harvest can be harvested from it will change the amount of wheat to be delivered from then on.

but sometimes I don't have farmland data on hand if I don't actually check it out.

Again, you'll have to do it.

But after I tried to test it, I realized that I was on my way to see how to measure the size of the land.

We didn't even have the measurement technology to do the test.

What's the matter?

Should I even make a tape measure and measure the breadth, but then I got to ask myself how long strings I needed?

"Uh..., Brother Ars, was that what bothered you?

"Don't say that, Kyle. I'm really stuck looking like this."

"Because it's not easy, that's the thing. I think you'll soon know the size of the farmland based on how many times you've done [tidy land]."

But the answer I was worried about was by Kyle, and it resolved quickly.

Kyle, [Tidy Land] was clear that whoever could use my magic would always be taught the same size of land every time, so based on that, there would be no mistake.

Maybe if you do say so.

Based on my memories from my previous life, I spelled it with the image of flattening a square plot of land 10 m on one side [tidy ground].

By the way, I also made a [soil improvement] spell based on [tidiness], so the area was both the same.

Just see how many spells you can use to fill that area on each farmland, and the test area will be over.

What is more, it will be possible to measure the area, even if it does not have special measurement techniques.

Thus, the land area of the Knights of Barca began to count as "one sheet" the size of the influence once [tidied].

"Kyle, then we'll decide on the length of the unit."

"Length units?

"The length of one side when [tidied] shall be equal to 1 m, and the further one hundred equal parts thereof shall be 1 cm. I don't admit to disagreement."

"I guess it's good for the basket. I don't think there's any objection."

"Let's also decide what the weight is and so on. I'll put it on the list."

"Yeah, okay. I'll tell everyone."

Once the units of length have been determined, other units can also be created as reference units in conjunction with them.

For example, a volume of water of 10 x 10 x 10 cm shall be 1 litre and 1 L shall be 1 kg.

This is all we can do in units of volume and mass.

Let's add the boiling temperature of the water to 100 degrees.

This way, I can get a familiar unit.

Thus, units of length and weight appeared in Barca as common perceptions.

Until then, it was relatively easy for those who numbered a lot of things, and the figures put out on the basis of what was produced from their magic, that this uniform metric became more widespread in the Knights of Barca.
