Back when Su Li led the knights and serfs to cut through thorns and clear fields for farming, the yield of the first harvest season was only about 190 jin per mu. 𝑓𝘳𝘦𝑒𝑤𝑒𝘣𝘯ℴ𝘷𝘦𝓁.𝑐𝑜𝑚

And now, the grain yield under the same Jorn Shallow Bay has almost doubled. How could Su Li not be delighted?

According to this number, this harvest season might welcome a tremendous bounty, far exceeding the expectations of both Su Li and the ministers.

There’s not much to say about this Steel Wheat; it is the most important grain supply for the military.

During wartime, if soldiers ate rough steel bread for three meals a day, their strength would increase by about 20%.

Therefore, next season, the planting area must be expanded again. Su Li instructed, "Apart from keeping one-third as a reserve, use the rest as wheat seed to quickly increase the scale."

He didn’t plan to sell these wheat seeds but to provide them directly to the army.

He felt that he was quite reliable, especially compared to those eccentric lords and kings.

The deeds of this world’s lords would make one’s skin crawl just hearing about them.

Like the Duke of Greed, Faen Powell, who, after triumphantly returning with his army from a victory over the Arabi nation, found more than thirty thousand soldiers exhausted in the desert. Upon finally encountering an oasis, instead of letting the soldiers near it, this greedy duke controlled the water source, selling water and firewood to the desperately thirsty soldiers, amassing a mountain of wealth in just half a day.

Various background reasons certainly existed for such occurrences, such as just having won a great victory, plundering a tomb of the Tomb King, knights, soldiers, and mercenaries carrying a massive amount of loot. For instance, Greed being more like a merchant, arrogant after a triumphant victory.

But no matter how you say it, these events are enough to make one jaw drop.

Compared to these eccentrics, as long as Su Li acted normally and with generosity, why would knights not support him and serve him bravely in battle?

Vandar also appreciated Su Li’s arrangements very much, saying, "This deployment by you, my lord, is very foresighted. Currently, our territory doesn’t have too severe military threats. Quickly expanding production is our top priority, and previously we had around 1200 jin of Steel Wheat seed in reserve. We will take out another two-thirds to increase the planting scale."

"During this summer planting season, we strive to increase the planting area of Steel Wheat seed to over 100 mu. Then in the next harvest season, we aim to harvest at least 30,000 jin of Steel Wheat seed!"

Yes, Su Li nodded with satisfaction. This number is quite impressive, and the Steel Wheat seed also has the great advantage of being very filling. As an Extraordinary Wheat Ear, one jin of Steel Wheat seed bread is enough to sustain a powerful elite knight for 4 to 6 hours.

These 30,000 jin of seeds are enough to support 1,000 elite knights in intense battle for 10 days. Currently, the mundane elite knights directly under Su Li’s command in the territory are less than 1,000.

The strategy of Hesse Territory is to stockpile grain and train soldiers. With such a scale of grain reserves and 1,000 elite knights excellently suited for combat, Su Li has great confidence to confront even if the Night Wanderer Corpse arrives.

Then Su Li looked into the distance and said, "My ministers, try to spread these Extraordinary Wheat Seeds as much as possible for the people to try. Just like how Quesofield Manor could plant pearl wheat, the wisdom of the people is boundless. I hope more manors can plant Extraordinary Wheat Ears, striving for 2 to 3 manors to plant extraordinary wheat fields on a large scale this year. Just like last autumn and winter seasons, many church cultivators used their creativity and wisdom to create a batch of small Holy Lands."
