Black Iron Crown

　　 But unfortunately, Rainer does not have so many manpower in his hands now. Counting the newly acquired territory, he is now the grand baron commanding five regular barons.

However, the population under his control is only more than 7,000 people. The range of his rule has reached more than 8,000 flat kilometers, from the southernmost to the northernmost for more than 40 kilometers, and from the west to the east. More than 20 kilometers away, this is the size of three or four counties in the Celestial Dynasty.

　　 Put in the celestial dynasty, such a huge territory can live with hundreds of thousands of nearly millions of people, and here, there are only 7,000 people living, which shows the scarcity of the population.

Of course, this is also caused by the special geographical environment in the north. The cold weather has slowed the growth of crops and the yield is not high. In addition, the clad people have the autumn wind every year. It's a weird thing.

　　 The total population of the entire northern border is estimated to be about 500,000 people, which is no more than one million. It is the population of a large county in the Tian Dynasty.

The Northern Territory occupies a large area. On the whole, it occupies one-eighth of the size of the empire, but its contribution to population is very small. Only one-tenth of the population lives on one-eighth of the land. Among the eight million empires, there are only less than half a million people in the north, which is so insignificant.

Of course, the population of 8 million is not too much in Lena’s eyes. Compared with many first-tier cities in the Celestial dynasty, it is nothing but a dwarf, but this population of 8 million is already quite large in the contemporary era. , At least there has never been any country larger than the Redka Empire on this continent.

The territory in Lena’s hands now has a unified name, that is, the Merland region, which can be divided into other regions, but they all have a unified name, that is, the Merland region or Mexico. Randshire, they are ruled by the Moreland family, and they also have the name of this family.

　　 The entire Morandburg area was undergoing extensive reclamation. Reiner borrowed all the cattle, horses, and iron farm tools in Morandburg, and the same was true for the New Territory.

　　 However, compared to the vast amount of engineering, the convenience provided by Leiner is nothing but a drop in the bucket, but Leiner does not require them to cultivate arable land that has doubled.

　　 After all, they still have other jobs now, not to mention the spring plowing season is now past, even if new land is reclaimed, they can’t cultivate it immediately.

　　 What's more, they still have other tasks to do. Although spring ploughing has ended in several houses, they still have to weed the cultivated land from time to time to avoid growing weeds and crops from snatching the few nutrients in the land.

Relatively speaking, more land is cultivated in winter. Although the extreme cold in winter will freeze the land severely and make it very difficult to cultivate, and the cold weather will also make people consume heat quickly, but in winter It is the most leisure time of the residents.

　　 They can spend the whole day on reclaiming the land without doing other things.

In this way, the entire Morland area...The area of ​​cultivated land in Morland County is growing rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye. According to Reiner’s complete statistics, the area of ​​cultivated land in Morland County has now reached 120,000 mu. There are also 60,000 mu of cultivated land this year. It can be imagined that this year is definitely a bumper year.

Reiner stood on the towering arrow tower of Fort Merland, looking out over this hopeful land. The wheat planted in early spring had already drawn out green sprouts, growing in the northern border. In the originally fertile land, coupled with the irrigation of manure, the growth is very gratifying. It looks lush and rustling under the gentle spring breeze, as if performing a symphony full of vitality.

For this kind of sight, Reiner actually appreciated a different kind of beauty. He, who had no feeling for these things, began to understand what kind of sight it was. Although these growing plants can be regarded as beautiful, they are not the same as the beautiful scenery. It's absolutely irrelevant.

　　 As the saying goes, the **** decides the head, and there will be some changes in the south side of Rainer, who has been sitting in the position of the ruler for half a year.

　　 He who liked landscape gardens in the past has nothing more than a few things that he likes best now.

　　 The endless wheat field, the black army formation, the countless gold coins, the granary full of piles, the dazzling array of goods, the bustling crowd, these things are all the sights that Reiner desperately hopes to be able to see in his own territory.

　　 Of course, these things still have a long way to go for Leiner now, and it is not so easy to achieve them in a short time.

　　Blowing the high-altitude cool breeze for a while, Lena walked down the arrow tower refreshedly and entered the interior of the castle.

　　 And just when he wanted to go back to the room to tease him with two handsome little maids, a servant blocked Lena's way.

　　 "I'm sorry to disturb you, my honorable baron, the madam wants you to find her immediately. It seems that there is something very important!" The male servant saluted and said to Rainer.

Of course, this lady will not be Lena’s wife. As an unmarried teenager with a physical age of only seventeen, he does not have a strange creature like a wife at all. Now in the entire Morandburg, and even Morand County, he can Only Reiner’s mother was named as a lady, UU reading www. uukanshu.com Mrs. Moreland.

　　 "A very important thing?" Rainer frowned. Now that the territory is developing steadily, how can there be urgent things."

　　 "I'll go right away!" Rainer nodded, without entering his room, and walked directly to Mrs. Moreland's room.

　　 "What happened, mother?" Rainer frowned and walked into the room.

"You finally came to my Lena!" Mrs. Moreland saw a smile on Lena's face. Somehow, Lena always had a weird feeling looking at the smile on his mother's face, how did you say it? , Making him creepy.

　　 "Uh..." Rainer licked his lips and asked, "What's wrong?"

　　 "This is a very very...very important thing!"

　　Mrs. Morland said solemnly to Leiner: "Leiner, my son, you are seventeen years old this year!"

　　 "But you are still not married, not even a fiancée. Your father was only sixteen when he married me, and you are seventeen now. I think you have reached the age of marriage!"

　　 Mrs. Morland said to Rainer with a smile on his face. He finally knew where the anxiety in his heart came from. It turned out that it was the old lady who wanted to urge the marriage.

　　 But to be honest, it was his first experience of being urged to marry him. He was an orphan in his previous life and had no relatives and no reason. Whoever had the leisure to worry about his marriage, Mrs. Moreland's urge to marry made him feel strange.

　　 "But..." Rainer certainly wouldn't be so submissive.

"Listen to me!" Mrs. Moreland glared at Lena, and then said: "It is very late for you to get married for a long time now. Even if you don't think about it for yourself, you have to think about it for your family, right? The family needs an heir!"
