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

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

A new wharf is under construction by the lake, and a large number of wooden piles have been deeply sunk into the nearshore mud, but it is still in the spring ploughing period, and no one is working here anymore.

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

As long as you take a closer look, you can see the shadows swaying on the fields, and even the deer in motion.

The two large ships broke down as they approached the shore, their bulbous bows touching the silt.

Rurik looked at Kawi again: "You have to see it for yourself. Let me know if you decide that you want a field to plant. I... will stay in this place for a while."

"Don't worry about farming. I'm a blacksmith, not a farmer. I bring tools with me. If my brothers' iron tools are damaged, I can repair them nearby. Well, I don't think there is a blacksmith shop in this place."

"You still answer like this? Well, of course Mstisk needs a blacksmith shop. Now I have arranged for your apprentices in the past, so they can return to their hometowns to work. Let's go, let's disembark." Rurik said enthusiastically.

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

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

The soldiers of the first flag team worked all day. They learned that some family members had returned early, and the morale of the whole team was high, and this enthusiasm was devoted to the construction and cultivation of the town.

The phantom of the big ship reappeared on the lake, and the cultivators hurriedly stopped their work and poured into the half-repaired pier from all directions.

Kawei stood on his toes and saw the silhouettes approaching him one by one, the blonde hair of those people was extremely conspicuous under the sunlight.

"Haha, our helpers are here!"

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

The first flag team always showed people the image of brave warriors, but now it has become a large group of mud legs.

Rurik noticed that some people had red necks from the sun, and they all squinted in the hot sun. Everyone wore simple clothes. If they put on a straw hat, wouldn't it be a classic old European farmer.

At first glance, the bravery of their bloody 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 crawled cautiously down the nets of the large boat, and many young children descended with their chubby little hands clenched on the ropes. The women were all carrying bags, and there were bits and pieces hanging from the belts of the cloth strips.

On the deck of the ship, there were also some luggage tied with hemp ropes, which were slowly hoisted down and landed on the small boats ready to be picked up.

Women and children are slowly landing.

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

Recognizing the family's first flag team, the soldiers rushed forward bravely, jumped out of the lake with tears of joy, and continued to wading forward to reunite with their families.

Dozens of people saw their family members, and the soldiers have spontaneously launched a response action without Laurik's urging. Knowing that their family members are soft and can land very smoothly and quickly, as for landing a lot of weight, they can wait a little longer.

The daughters nourished by Lake Ilmen,

They once thought that being forced to marry a Rus would be a lifetime of departure from their hometown, and they came back with their children after only a few years.

However, doesn't the lakeside you 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, and there are no buildings of Pine Needle Manor. There are only farms being opened up by Ross men, wandering deer, and a city under construction.

They knew a little about the end of Pine Needle Manor. Since they had never seen the terrifying post-war scene, they couldn't make any associations.

Actually? The giant tomb is not far away, and there are also obvious markers there.

Only a few dozen women with brothers came, and some brothers even had two women with multiple children. There were even brothers whose mothers came along to reunite with their old fathers who served in the Second Flag. This is the so-called selling the real estate in the hometown and immigrating with the family with tenderness.

The decisiveness of such people's actions is a very good sign in Rurik's view. He can't help but re-examine his own understanding of "relocating the land". His oriental concept of homeland does not seem to be suitable for the Viking people. Applicable, their own people can be more decisive than they think.

Dozens of lucky brothers spend their first night in the new world with their families from afar in their new type of house. A family guards a one-hectare field. The oat seeding in the personal field has been completed, and the family has a large amount of money and surplus grain, which is enough to ensure that the family can wait for the wheat harvest safely.

Soldiers who can't rest easy are still working. They are logging to build their own houses, and by the way, they ask for land from the forest and open new private fields. The hunting operation was also going on along the way, and they, who were manipulating the crossbow, began to sweep away the big red squirrels jumping around in the forest. The prince came at the right time, and a batch of squirrel skins dried by the campfire just happened to be sold directly.

Today's days full of hope are all thanks to the perfect prince, and they are all willing to do things for the prince, Rurik. This is not only out of their own will, but also because the prince is always trustworthy and will definitely pay.

A group of labor was easily assembled. In the evening, more than 300 strong men or wooden poles were carried on their shoulders together, or they were carrying bundles of hemp ropes, newly woven rattan ropes, or even driven by multiple reindeer. of large pine poles massed towards the pier.

Overnight, wood and rope built a human-powered crane.

On the second day after Zirurik arrived, an astonishing amount of wheat seeds began to be transported to the shore where the grass was sprouting through the net of the crane, and was carried by the strong man to the two-wheeled cart...

Do we need to be taught about farming?

The old Rus people in the past were not disdainful of planting wheat, but that the conditions did not allow it. A few cabbage and onions can be grown in small quantities in Roseburg's home fjord, although a sudden cold snap can undo months of hard work.

The young people of the first flag team received the guidance of the old farmers of Baishu Manor here. Coupled with the advanced "fool-type" agricultural tools that integrate farming and sowing, spring ploughing is not a problem at the technical level, but only a problem of physical exertion.

Rurik ordered his wives and concubines to divide the brothers of the First Banner Team with proper fertile fields according to the contract. They are all close to the lake, and they are most nourished by the infiltration of the lake water, and they can also absorb some mud nutrients. There are still a large number of fields that have not been allocated, except for a batch of low-fertility and poor fields, which are deliberately vacated fertile fields that are in urgent need of planting wheat.

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

Everyone stared at Lord Rurik, who was standing on a trolley, and listened to his speech, hoping to take the opportunity to make another fortune.

"Brothers! The deadline for spring ploughing is coming to an end, and we still have a lot of fields that have not been sown! You have all allocated your own fields, and you have completed your own cultivation. Now you have one count as one, and you all. Women and children, I need your labor! All the wheat and oats must be planted, and for our autumn harvest, we all go together! You should pay attention, we are fighting a brand new war, we have to defeat the famous Fight for the hungry enemy, for the food we have to eat!"

These words are too big, and there is always some emptiness.

Rurik thought about it for a second, and shouted again with a smile: "Brothers! Do you like to drink ale and drink your own kvass? You like it very much! But they need a lot of wheat to brew. Now farm for me, I I will return a bucket of delicious ale to each of your households. Of course, I will also give you silver coins!"

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

Let alone what a good drink is, they prefer a mellow ale. Now the slightly sweet and sour kvass is another option, followed by high-end mead.

Obviously, ale is a drink that everyone likes with high cost performance. The only problem is the lack of raw materials. Unless these fields have a bumper crop this year.

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

Now he is not only under the first banner team, but part of the farmland here is also given to the allied farms in the form of trophies. The farmers of the farms have finished farming and heard that the prince's fields are in urgent need of labor, so they came to help with a reward. !

Rurik really came prepared this time. The presence of the famous blacksmith Kawei immediately built the most traditional earthen stove, repaired the blunt axes of the brothers, and even made the shovel sharper, and even came to quench it. heat treatment.

The plowed columbine was stuffed with wheat, and many remodeled ploughs swept across the fertile fields under the lead of many reindeer, and were buried in strip-shaped wheat arrays under the soft soil. The speed of sowing has rewritten local agriculture.

The old pine needle manor is the largest farm in this area, and they are basically continuous with each other. Good fields grow wheat, bad fields continue to grow oats.

With enough seed grain on hand, Rurik has full confidence to use it. He is by no means sloppy. It seems that he has used an amazing seed grain. The more advanced seeding method is actually more economical than the traditional high-density spreading mode of the locals. a lot of.

The time was only the tenth day of May in the Julian calendar, and the sowing of the fields in the entire Mstissk was declared a victory.

Rurik tacitly agreed that the brothers and their families were not slacking off, and that both men and women received two silver coins.

That's very little money, isn't it? Very few, after all Rurik had promised a barrel of ale in the future!

The prince and the queen were plowing, and the feet of the prince's An and a group of young wives and concubines were also covered with soil. They enjoyed the fun of working together, just like living together in their hometown in Roseburg, and fighting side by side on the battlefield. The money and rewards were required, and it was okay to have as much as you wanted.

As if Odin was sheltering his people who believed in him, Rurik in Lake Ilmen was the last to complete the spring ploughing. When everyone finished their most tiring work for only three days, the rain began.

Rurik had now returned to Novgorod City, and the ground became wet overnight. He could not feel the cold, but the intoxicating warmth.

The rain forced Rurik, who was working continuously, to "slam on the brakes". For three months, he was running around the large area from the Neva River to Lake Ilmen, not only rarely did he have a good rest, and now he can finally be quiet. Let's make some plans for the future.

It is well known that the operation of the great immigration of the Principality of Rus has begun. The huge fleet will return to Roseburg during the warm period, and the sailors who are leisurely and contentedly working as urban construction laborers in Novgorod and Novgorod and making money will return again. their old line. This is just the itinerary that Rurik himself must participate in. Those soldiers of the first flag team who have settled down, they have changed their lives and become fishermen. They will fish for bass in Lake Ilmen, and even float down the Volkhov River to more places. Great Lake Ladoga to fish for the ferocious and extremely plump pike.

In terms of environmental plunder, the local Slavs are not as powerful as the Rus.

Rurik decided to convene a meeting on the spot for future operations, especially to assign a series of tasks to his wives and concubines who served as field surveyors, priests, paper workers, and Dmitry, who served as the governor of Novgorod. Waite has a clear mission. Of course, the fast-expanding city of Russ immigrants is self-governed by Nordic customary law under the supervision of Arik, just like the living conditions of the hometown of Rosburg.

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

This is a secret conversation, it must be business-related! When I think that I can continue to make a fortune, I can't say how happy I am.

In fact, Rurik was not alone in inviting him, and the blue fox also noticed that a simple toner-blackened cross was hung on the main entrance of an independent, small wood-carved ridge in Novgorod City.

John Invall, a teenager of Rurik's age, sat in the house in a black robe, and Rurik allowed him 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 prince's residence, took off his leather boots obediently, and walked into Rurik's house with a big belly and bare feet.

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

As a result, the blue fox determined from his experience that he could not have imagined that the prince would still be holding a sleeping child in his arms. this child? Could it be?

When the 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 prince Otto had been happily playing with his eldest granddaughter, but the old queen Nia was holding a swaddled baby very strangely, which was obviously a baby boy.

Strangely, 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. Taking a closer look at the prince's eyebrows, Rurik seemed to reveal a little regret.

The prince is kind, but he will never hug other people's children, so this baby must have a blood relationship with the prince.

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