Since I was reincarnated as a poor farmer in another world, I decided to lay bricks and build a castle
Territorial Operations Policy
"Hey, Ars. Are you sure about this?
"Oh, my God, brother Byte. What do you mean, okay?
"It's territory, it's Baltic Knights territory. Isn't anything too big for you? It's a lot wider than the original Barca Knights. I'm asking if I can get this much land."
"Um, to tell you the truth, you think I'm too big for you, too. But, well, as I said first, my brother Byte took his own land, and that's okay. Don't hesitate to have it, brother Bite."
"I don't like it when you get sledded. But I've never run a territory. Can you do it right?
"You're unusual and weak, brother Byte. Right...... you just have to be thorough doing the least you can do for now. I don't really think it's easier to run things like me without thinking about making money."
"At the very least, what am I supposed to do?
"All right, look at this, brother Byte. That's what I sent the knights. It says if you're going to surrender here and get under Barca, forgive me. It's got good conditions in it."
A part-time brother who has been doing all the work of moving the army.
But suddenly, I felt uneasy about being entrusted with a large territory.
Well, I guess so.
Anxiety will hang over what no one has ever done.
That's why I started explaining to my part-time brother.
I started talking about the points that I should keep in mind in running the territory based on what I wrote in my letter.
Actually, the job I want my part-time brother to do is not that complicated either.
Essentially, let the inhabitants cultivate their fields and pay their harvest as a tax.
It is fundamental to deal with all kinds of problems in order to make this happen.
But when the original knight surrenders to Barca, the knight's territory is given permission to take over as it is.
In response to that, a knight would make the inhabitants of his knightly land pay the wheat as a tax, and from that point on he would pay it to his part-time brother, the Baltic family.
As such, I will pay the taxes collected by my part-time brother back to the Barca family where I live.
This was the flow of territorial operations.
But he says not only that against the surrendered Cavalier realm, but also to put up some conditions.
For example, the abolition of the traffic tax, which is also implemented in part of Fontana territory.
Normally, we will manage what enters or leaves our territory at the customs office, and we will take a toll tax or something like that on what we need.
However, there is also the disadvantage that just going a little further will result in taxes and higher prices for the product as a result.
In any case, even though the Knights of the Baltic are looking to improve the flow of people by developing a road network, it is difficult to do so.
That's why I already told you to abolish such a toll tax.
In this way, there are some conditions that we have put out against the original knight, but it is also necessary to let them protect it.
Perhaps, for some time at first, we may try to ignore this order and do it the way it has always been.
However, they must be given strict guidance.
And the Baltic Knights needed strength to make them obey that.
That's why I didn't participate and ordered my part-time brother to cut Urk territory.
"But is that okay? You make a lot of money making products, don't you? Shouldn't I do the same? I don't know if I can."
"If you can do it, you better do it, but I think you can do as much as you can. Anyway, it's important to expand farmland and increase yields at first. Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. If Barca magic is used
"Agricultural land improvement? Then I'll take care of it, Ars. I've been sent here in Fontana before. I'm used to it."
"Right, Bite brother. Take care of anyone who was brain-lagging me with a contingent job back then. A smart guy is precious. It's imperative to run the territory."
"Right. Then maybe you should just ask Kyle to come over here."
"No. You can't just do that, brother Byte. Kyle needs me, too. I can't help it. I'm going to send the one from the Reed family who was trained by Kyle in Vulcania later. Use it well."
"Shit, I thought it would flush well, but couldn't it? With Kyle, it would have been a hundred manpower. Well, if you have a civilian, can you handle it? But, Ars. You can't just improve farmland for as much as you want. I really want to make something that's gonna be gold."
"... then I want my part-time brother to do his best to raise a goat. There are many goats in the mountains of old Urk territory. Not enough to feed him as a dragon rider. I think you should keep a goat and make yarn. It's a lot colder around here, and I don't care how much fabric there is."
"I see, speaking of which, was there a goat? But is that okay, Ars? If the Balts make a lot of fabric, they might lose their money at your place."
"Well, when I do, I'll fight with quality, not numbers. I'm going to make the finest fabrics that have slipped through Lilina's sorting and sell them as luxury products, so I guess it's okay."
"All right, anyway, you just have to do the farmland improvement and take the hair out of the goats, Ars. If that works and I make money, I'll give it a try."
"Whoa, that's intentional, brother Byte. Good luck with that."
"... hmm? Wait a minute, Ars. What is this? You were putting this on terms?
"Oh my God, suddenly. I just thought we had a conversation.... er, this. Oh, yeah, I am. I gave this condition to the surrendered knight. Even so, without surrendering, I would apply it to the territory my brother Byte attacked and cut off."
"You, you're gonna do this to the whole Baltic knighthood? Are you serious, Ars?
"Of course, brother Byte. Yeah, of course, because I wouldn't allow my part-time brother to disagree with this either. This is an absolute condition for depositing territory."
One of the conditions for running the territory that my part-time brother noticed after I thought he had a paragraph in his story with me.
Looking at the contents, my brother Bite seemed surprised.
The contents are such that if we want to miss this, we can't leave it to the management of the territory.
Its content was the specification of the obligations imposed on residents living in Barca territory.
Content that is obligatory for only a few years for boys of a particular age.
That was compulsory participation in the Barca army.
Thus Barca was to cut off about a third of the territory of the former Urk territory and drag the young boys living there into the army.
This led the Barca army to start walking anew as a territorial army that introduced conscription.
