Vol 6 Chapter 5: Human problem

The Marlow Empire is very big. ☆→
As one of the two great empires on the mainland of Sainz, the territory of the Marlow Empire is dozens of times smaller than the small country of the Kingdom of Lampari.
As for the Principality of Constantine, which is several times smaller than the Kingdom of Rampage, it is even more incomparable to the Malo Empire.
Although Xu can't get accurate figures, according to his experience living in the Kingdom of Lampari, the area of ​​the Lampari Kingdom is about the same as that of a medium province in the Earth.
According to this calculation, the area of ​​the Marlow Empire can almost match the total area of ​​the Earth on Earth, which can definitely be called a huge empire.
However, contrary to Xu’s expectations, the population of this large empire is not as many as ten times as large as the area of ​​the Lampari Kingdom.
According to the general data provided by the Marquis of Sosgaard, the current total population of the Marlow Empire is only about 50 million, just over ten times the total population of the Kingdom of Lampari.
Even with the population that each party cannot accurately count, this deviation will not be greater.
With only a population of more than 50 million on such a large area, the population density in the Marlow Empire is extremely low, making Xu Yi, a traversing person from the Earth on Earth, very uncomfortable.
In the private territory of the Marquis of Sosgaard, if he is in the Kingdom of Lampari, then with his Marquis status, the acquisition of the land may be around 50 square kilometers.
But in the Marlow Empire, his private territory was more than an astonishing 1,000 square kilometers, enough to match a slightly smaller city that Xu was also impressed on Earth.
However, in such a large private territory. According to the statistics of the Marquis of Southgate in the previous two years. The total population is only less than 30,000!
If you let these 30,000 people share it. Counting down even a large area of ​​several hectares per person!
But this brings a problem in the eye.
Aside from the relatives and guards of the Sosgaard family and the servants in the private estate, the rest of the more than 27,000 people have to leave those old people who are too old and have no labor at all. The ability of young children, so there is only about 15,000 people left.
Among the 5,000-plus labor force, there are more than 8,000 women who have a much lower labor force, leaving less than 7,000 young people.
These 7,000 people are the most important labor force that constitutes the private territory of the Marquis of Sosgaard, and can even be regarded as the most basic and core force of the entire Sosgaard family.
Now Xu also asked for a 10,000 person to the Marquis of Southgate. Naturally, he was very surprised.
Don't say that these 7,000 people can't all be handed over to Xu Yi, and even if they give it all, it's still more than 3,000 people.
"Hui Huichang... If I remember correctly, there are only a total of seven factories that you originally planned to build. Why do you need 10,000 so many?" asked the Marquis of Sosgaard inexplicably.
"How much?" Xu also looked at the Marquis of Sosgaard, who had a somewhat overreacting reaction. He thought about it and woke up.
He is now used to communicating with the people of Lampari and the people of the surrounding countries about the magical industry, and this has basically become common sense in those countries, but for the Marlow Empire and Southgate. For the Marquis, there are still some common sense that transcend them.
Think of it here. Xu also remembered the fact that in Bonta City, several new factories were built because of the expansion of the New Flying Chamber of Commerce, and the situation was that when the Earl of Satsuma, who was still the owner of Bangta City, was required to hire a minimum of 3,000 workers.
At that time, Count Satsuma heard his request. It was astonished as the Marquis of Sosgaard, but when Xu made a comment, the Earl of Satsuma expressed his great pleasure and actively supported Xu’s thoughts.
Because of this, it helped Bangta City solve the problem of more than 3,000 people, which is equivalent to helping him.
Although the Marquis of Sosgaard is a bit shocked, he must have refused this opportunity.
Then, after listening to Xu’s explanation that these factories needed a large amount of labor to participate, the Marquis of Sosgaard frowned for a moment, but shook his head.
"Mr. Xu, I am afraid I can't solve this problem. The top priority of these labors in the territory is planting. If the basic food production cannot be guaranteed, then everything else is meaningless. Now I have what I have on the territory. More than 10,000 people can only be barely able to maintain, but they can't open up the farmland on the entire territory. If you give 10,000 more people, even if you say those women can... I still can't accept it."
Xu is also somewhat puzzled.
The Marquis of Sosgaard clearly went to the Kingdom of Lampari and the Principality of Constantine to inspect it. Isn't it still known that with the help of farmland magic machinery, farming now does not need so many people to complete it?
After asking this question to the Marquis of Sosgaard, he got a slightly embarrassing response.
"This... I only pay attention to the impact of various home magic machinery and infrastructure. I don't pay much attention to the field of magic machinery. If it is not for you to let the Cantona Chamber of Commerce to assist in the harvest, I even I don’t know the farmland magic machinery at all."
Xu also could only turn a blind eye, thinking that although the Marquis of Sosgate mentioned that he had to buy some farmland magic machinery, he did not expect that he actually did not understand the specific role that farmland magic machinery can play.
He had to patiently explain to the Marquis of Sosgate again, because of the emergence of farmland magic machinery, how much impact on the farming of the Kingdom of Lampari and surrounding countries.
After listening to it, there was a hint of excitement in the Marquis of Sosgaard.
"It can be like this! No wonder you said that the Cantona Chamber of Commerce can help me solve all the planting problems on the territory. I thought you were joking!"
Xu Yiqiang resisted the urge to turn a blind eye again and continued: "So, said that the Marquis is an adult. Regarding farmland cultivation, you don't need to worry about the manpower problem. This year's autumn harvest is too tight. It can only help you harvest." By the end of the autumn harvest, you can also ask the Cantona Chamber of Commerce to re-integrate all the farmland on your private land, and even ask them to help you plant directly, and you only need to be slightly maintained during the next year. It can be easily harvested."
The Marquis of Sosgaard thought about it and frowned. "But the Cantona Chamber of Commerce cannot stay here all the time."

The Cantona Chamber of Commerce also has a branch in the Marlow Empire. If you want, you can contact them directly for each harvest. Of course. If you prefer to do it yourself, it’s easy. You only need to buy enough farmland magic machinery from our chamber of commerce, and then send some people to learn how to operate, you can solve the problem yourself." Xu also patiently.

Can the Cantona Chamber of Commerce be willing to pass on this skill?
The Marquis of Sosgaard looked at Xu Yi suspiciously.
Xu also couldn't help but laugh, thinking that this is not a strange skill, and what other teachings are not taught.
However, after thinking about it, Xu also felt a move and smiled: "You can negotiate directly with President Cantona. I think he will be very willing to communicate with you."
"Okay, just do it." The Marquis of Sosgaard nodded. Immediately frowning again. "But even if this is the case, you still can't fill in the manpower you need. The gap is too big."
"You can completely seek the cooperation of the Duke of Macaros. If you can't do it, you can also seek the help of other nobles of the empire. Every year, every employee has a commission of 30 gold coins. I think I should be able to impress many aristocratic lords like you. Xu. I also suggested.
In fact, with Xu's own ideas, he certainly hopes that all chambers of commerce will openly recruit the whole society of Marlow Empire. This will be much more flexible to deal with. The new Flyer Chamber of Commerce and other chambers of commerce will be more active.
But now they have come to see it all the time, relying on the relationship of the Marquis of Sosgaard, but it must be solved by the Marquis of Sosgaard.
After listening to Xu Yi’s proposal, the Marquis of Sosgaard fell into deep thoughts and his face looked uncertain and hesitated.
Xu also understands his hesitation, because it is almost equivalent to letting out the fat of his mouth, and no one will be willing.
After a long time, the Marquis of Sosgaard took a deep breath and turned his face into a firm, seemingly determined.
"Mr. Xu, you don't have to worry about this, I will solve it."
"Well?" The Marquis of Sosgaard did not say his solution, and Xu also felt a little worried.
However, in this case, he also did not show his distrust of the Marquis of Southgate, and he only nodded and understood.
After the two exchanged ideas about the plan for a while, Xu also said that he would go to the magic industrial base to look at the construction situation and leave the private estate of the Marquis of Sosgaard.
After driving the magic car out of the manor gate, Xu also glanced at the manor behind his face and sighed deeply.
Before he came to the Marlow Empire, he thought that the Marquis of Sosgaard had always been very open-minded, so the investment here should be quite smooth.
However, after he really came here, he found that even if the Marquis of Sosgaard was enlightened again, and then he was willing to accept new things, he still had some common problems and limitations of the aristocratic lords of this era.
Because of these problems and limitations, Xu has been forced to revise many of the previously planned plans and work hard to match the Marquis of Southgate.
Although it does not affect the most basic plans, it makes Xu also feel helpless.
In the small countries of the Principality of Constantine and even the Kingdom of Lampari, with the influence of the New Flying Chamber of Commerce, it would be much simpler for Xu to change them, but now I want to change the behemoth of the Marlow Empire, but from the very beginning Some are struggling.
"No way, this is the only way to go."
Xu also smiled bitterly, thinking that the New Flying Chamber of Commerce had already taken a solid step towards the whole continent by entering the Marlow Empire, but it still needs to redouble its efforts to make this road go smoothly.
Thinking of this, Xu also turned his head and turned his eyes to the south.
Now that the new Feishang Chamber of Commerce has stepped into the Marlow Empire, when can we really take another step into another huge empire, the Cantona Empire? (To be continued, please search for astronomical literature, the novel is better updated faster!
