Chapter 47: Dislocated Gender Ratio

Chapter 47 The Out-of-Sync Ratio of Men and Women

Back in his study, Owen pulled out his own notebook and started writing and drawing.

A good memory is not as good as a bad pen, Owen is not a genius who can’t forget, plus no one is in charge, he loses things from time to time, so if he doesn’t write down the important things, he doesn’t know when he can think of them.

This time the record was about Maya’s strengthening, the strengthening of the adventure both allowed him to get a strong and durable assistant, also allowed him to use this to confirm some things, but not enough to use on himself, simply put Owen’s goal is bigger, so he will not be small to lose big.

“Patience is still needed, thankfully my age has an advantage.” Owen first sighed, then said somewhat thankfully, he was not yet twenty years old, he could afford to wait.

However, although the T-virus is good, but never abuse, for this Owen is very cautious, otherwise cheap and good lickers tyrant and other biochemical monsters he will not be a not exchange, but also not afraid of being found by the mages or sorcerers of this world, in case of a magical version of the biochemical crisis will not be finished together.

Don’t think that the master of law and the previous world’s scientists have any difference, the same is a group of bold and daring not hesitate to pull the whole world to bet on the bastard, this world there is nothing they dare not research, even outside the world can’t stop their curiosity, so Owen is sure that, once this group of people to find the T-virus, nine times out of ten will be messed up big things.

Therefore, Owen only used the T-virus as a means of basic reinforcement, and then used the snake-haired banshee’s bloodline to cover and erase the traces of the T-virus, even if everything was carried out in the synthesizing furnace, and all traces were destroyed afterwards.

Synthesis furnace is a magical product, but as a material gene soul level synthesis of artifacts, although its function is single, but strong to terrible, the area of the virus is really nothing, otherwise Owen really do not dare to exchange T virus.

This matter comes to an end, Owen wrote a summary on the notebook, waiting for the second experiment.

Now is the critical juncture of the spring plowing, even if Owen can not leave everything to run to the dungeon chamber without seeing people, so in Maya under the coercion of the same busy, every day in the center of the town according to the report sent by Maya to adjust the exchange of supplies, and from time to time to act as the other side of the consumables to wear down after the strengthening of the overly energetic, causing him to burnt out, asthma and body weakness, if it is not the Daier craft to see the rise of the bowl of nourishment every day! If it wasn’t for Dale’s rising skills and a bowl of tonic soup every day, Owen doubted that he would die suddenly.

The good thing is that the development of the territory is getting better and better, and finally soothed his wounded little heart.

Don’t look at Owen’s messy things all year round, but the development of the territory didn’t stop, it still developed in an orderly manner, and there was a track record, which was completely in line with what a lucky and capable lord could achieve.

Especially the existence of Maya is the most reasonable explanation.

Maya’s origin can not be hidden from the people who have the heart, the empire of a real power countess of the close confidant, the name of the head of the maidservant, in fact, for the big general manager, the peak of the power is not inferior to the general counts, even if he was sent to the remote northern border, as long as a little bit of use of the year the countess left her the power, even if the local lord is a pig can also fly up.

Owen, who doesn’t feel like a pig, is trying to learn how to handle official business, as he is not willing to just act as a ruthless exchange machine.

Luckily, with the increase in the number of buildings in the territory system, Owen’s redemption pressure was much less, but he was soon faced with more problems. With the development of the territory, the problems he had to face were not less and less, but more and more. Before, he only needed to satisfy the need to plant the land and have enough to eat, but now, in addition to building small towns, expanding the farmland, building water conservancy, he also had to develop the local economy and maintain the balance of the number of men and women in the territory, all of which were problems that he needed to consider and solve.

The first three items are not a big problem, with the gift of last year’s fall harvest, the serfs in the territory are working as hard as they can, coupled with the increase in the number of peasants, there is no shortage of manpower to work, especially with the winter reserves of timber from the Magic Horn Forest Wooden Walls, and free stone obtained by dismantling the walls of the city, at least until the materials are exhausted, the construction of the territory will always maintain a fairly high speed.

The latter two are a bit troublesome, the population of the Northland is too small, the territory’s freeholders have only just appeared, how can there be any economy to speak of, the grocery store that was built last year is still just a display until now.

As for the problem of gender imbalance also need to pay attention to, with the territory of food abundance, originally hopeless serfs and peasants will certainly begin to think about the problem of reproduction, full of warmth think of that, human nature.

The problem is that the male-female ratio in the territory has reached an exaggerated 91, nine men and one woman, how to divide this is not appropriate, and has already appeared a little bit of bad seed, Owen does not want to let one of the two oldest professions of mankind to revive here, and even more do not want to set up the Thebes Holy Army in the territory.

In addition, Owen’s headache is not limited to these things, such as the lack of minerals and coal, the territory can only be simple repair tools, the bulk of the exchange is still dependent on him, which is certainly not a long-term solution.

Minerals, the Bison Baron’s territory has an iron ore mine, the reserves are not clear, but the quality is good, he has seen, very few impurities, iron content of at least seven or eight layers, a little refining can be called crude iron, with the Bison Baron’s territory of the rough processing methods are able to create some poor quality weapons and equipment can be seen.

The problem is that the wild bull baron has a descendant escaped, to the other side of the lineage, looking for the northland barbarians to retaliate the possibility is very great, so just send miners to mining is far from enough, but also must have enough troops to escort.

Going to escort the troops less useless, more than the loss, so Owen has not been sent to mine, but can not be delayed, this year to take action.

As for the coal mine, you can go to the magic horn forest to look for, those magic horn kobolds idle is also idle, all to the Lord Demon King move.

However, after half a day’s consideration, Owen decided to focus on spring plowing for the time being, and let Kerens take the caravan to Mara Town to exchange a number of serfs and livestock, and the rest of the things can be postponed.

Want to find Kerens is very simple, he is also in the center of the town, but now he does not have a specific position, has been acting as Maya’s deputy, to help deal with the affairs of the territory, but more is to act as a messenger and supervisor, because of the territory of the matter he can not interfere, Maya’s ability is too strong, the aura is also very scary, after all, in the year in front of the viscount and the baron also have only to listen to the orders of the part, not to mention him a downtrodden aristocrat! So many times he will stay in the center of the town and wait for Maya’s order.

However, Kerens is not willing to do this, because this is not what he wants, and with the rapid development of the territory, his heart is more and more urgent, finally, he waited for the opportunity to come.
