Chapter 70 Ration Ration System
   The journey of more than one hundred miles was dragged by Hudson for half a month before he successfully arrived at the fiefdom.
  The team grew from more than 600 people at the start to more than 3,000 people at the end, and the increase of more than 2,400 people is the harvest of this trip.
  It's a pity that there are fewer young and strong. Even if you add teenagers who are 14 to 15 and middle-aged men under 40, it is only less than 800.
   Most of the rest are old and weak women and children who are in relatively good health. The weak ones were either eliminated in the previous famine, or fell halfway.
  Of course, the definition of "old" is the standard of the Aslant Continent. After the age of thirty is considered middle-aged, and in the forties is considered an old man.
  If you really want to live to be one hundred and eighty years old, you can only live in a noble family. Serfs with poor living conditions, those who can live beyond the age of sixty, are comparable to the scales of a giant dragon.
   In the face of disasters, human beings are vulnerable. Even if Hudson deliberately slowed down, many people still failed to keep up.
   Being able to save so many people is already considered good. If Hudson didn't intervene and waited for the new lord to arrive, I'm afraid not even half of these people would survive in the end.
   Settling down is very simple, as long as a piece of land is divided, the serfs will build houses by themselves. Everyone is very conscious, such a trivial matter, does not need Master Hudson to worry about.
   After a brief inspection, Hudson planned five settlements around the mine, centering on it. Basically, it was the original site, and if the refugees were divided, it would be considered a success.
   As a price, the food and grass were reduced by 40 carts. This is still the result of deliberate restrictions. If you eat with an open belly, I am afraid that the consumption will be even greater.
   There is nothing to say, and people have to continue to send people back to Dadir City to transport food. Otherwise, the food in hand alone would only last for twenty days at most.
  More than 3,000 mouths, no matter how economical you are, you have to consume at least two to three thousand pounds of food every day.
   There is no need to travel, and there is no heavy labor. It is enough for ordinary serfs to have a full meal. If there is not enough food, wild vegetables, leaves, and grass roots are used to make up, but soldiers cannot go hungry.
   The veterans who have finally accumulated, Hudson does not want to destroy them again because of malnutrition.
   Besides, as a hero, you must be given some preferential treatment, right? There is no money for the military salary. If you don't even care about your food, who will work for Master Hudson in the future?
   Even though he had harvested a lot of food in the war before, Hudson still felt the pressure to supply so many mouths.
   After a little calculation, he realized that with the food in his hand, according to the current way of eating, he could last at most two or three months.
   What's more, most of the food was stored in Dardir City, and a family knight was hired to help look after it. It would be a hassle to transport it over.
  Limited by the number of carriages, at least two trips have to be made. Although the war is over, there are not a few mountain kings who have fallen into the grass. For the sake of safety, it is still indispensable to send military escorts.
   "The order will go on, and the ration rationing system will be implemented in the territory in the future, and the daily standards must be strictly followed. Jill, you are responsible for the daily food distribution, and I will conduct spot checks from time to time.
  Specific standards.
  Soldier: 1.5 pounds of wild vegetable rye bread per day, 1 pound of oats, beans and miscellaneous grains per day, 0.5 pounds of salt per month, 2 pounds of meat per month, some wild or dried vegetable soup. (Remarks: 1 pound is about 1 catty, the grain will expand when cooked, it is not equal to the raw grain)
  According to the level of the officer, on the basis of the soldier, each level increases by 15%, and wild vegetables can not be added to the bread.
  Young and strong over sixteen years old: 0.8 lbs of poor-quality rye bread per day, half a pound of oats, beans, and miscellaneous grains per day, 0.3 lbs of salt per month, 0.5 lbs of meat per month, and some vegetable soup.
  Healthy women, teenagers over ten years old, and middle-aged men will all be distributed according to 80% of the ration standard for young and strong; the rest of the old and weak women and children will be distributed according to 70% of the ration standard for young and strong.
  The food for the army was distributed to the centurions for unified production, and the rations for the serfs were distributed to the families. Thirty soldiers were stationed at each assembly point to maintain order, and those who violated order were reduced to slaves. "
   Hudson said seriously.
  The standard cannot be lowered. In the era when there is no oil in the stomach, everyone is a big eater. Everyone eats a lot and gets hungry quickly.
   Before formulating the standard, Hudson did in-depth research. The same is rye bread, which is also divided into grades and grades.
  The best is naturally whole wheat bread; followed by rye bread with wild vegetables, usually with wild vegetables ranging from 10% to 30%, and the taste is barely passable.
   Again, it is rye bread with wild vegetables and leaves, generally adding 30% to 50% of it, and black-hearted ones can even add sawdust, bark, and sand to it.
   Commonly known as poor-quality bread, there is only one principle that can't kill people. It can be used as a weapon in the hand, and it can hurt your feet if you drop it on the ground.
  Hudson is naturally not so unscrupulous, wood chips, bark, sand and the like will definitely not be added, but wild vegetables and leaves are indispensable.
   They were all forced out by lack of food. Only by implementing this low standard can the food in hand last for three months.
   In fact, this is only a theoretical state. Now the low standard can be implemented because the serfs did not engage in high-intensity labor and did not consume a lot of energy.
  Once production starts to resume, food consumption will increase dramatically. Miners must be full, otherwise they will not have the strength to work. Women and children who cultivate the land also cannot go hungry.
   "Yes, sir!"
   Jill replied calmly.
   There is no objection from anyone, they are all cronies who are following Master Hudson, so just follow the command. Anyway, as long as you don't get hungry, it doesn't matter what the standard is.
  Although Baron Redman promised to send their family members here, that will happen in the coming year.
  If you don’t settle the territory well, build up the infrastructure, and send people over in advance, that’s adding to the chaos.
   After a pause, Hudson suddenly remembered his livestock. Although many heroes were rewarded and banquets were held in Dadir City, many were slaughtered, but many were left behind.
  Because the war horses are relatively expensive, except for keeping eight for his own use, the rest were traded by Hudson.
  Including in Dardir City, the family knight who helped take care of the food and grass was hired by Hudson at a high price for a war horse.
   On the way to the territory, three sheep were unfortunately injured, and Hudson could only relieve them.
  Up to now, there are still twenty-eight cows, one hundred and sixty-seven sheep, and one hundred and eighty-seven poor horses left among the captured livestock.
   The naive horse was able to escape the catastrophe. In addition to being able to pull the cart, the most important thing was that the meat was not tasty.
  The slaughter can no longer be continued. Most of the remaining cattle and sheep are females, and they still have to keep their cubs.
  In fact, it was the cubs who were able to keep so many cattle and sheep. Under the concept that meat can be eaten less and milk cannot be cut off, the cub successfully rescued his own milk source from Hudson's butcher knife.
   Volunteering to lower food standards is not because Hudson has broken his promise.
  Since then, the food standard of the cub has been reduced from one sheep and 30 pounds of beef per day to the equivalent of meat and Hudson.
  Fortunately, the Earth Bear is an omnivorous monster, not to mention whole grains, even if it eats bamboo and leaves, it can live well. If you raise a dragon with a bigger appetite, it is estimated that Hudson will be bankrupt just by eating it.
   "Tom, you are in charge of organizing the young and strong to build the animal shed. The action must be fast, and it must be completed before the rainy season.
   Let the serfs who have experience in raising livestock sign up, take care of the livestock, and increase the ration ratio to 80% of the soldiers. "
   Animals are more valuable than people, this is not a joke. Needless to say, the war horse, the price of that thing has never been high.
  Beef is second only to Warcraft meat in the banquet, and the price is not low either. Depending on the variety and weight, basically three to seven gold coins.
   This is because the Alpha Kingdom is not popular with cattle farming, and prefers to use horses to plow the land, otherwise the price of cattle will go further.
  The price of a strong adult man in the slave market is only five to six gold coins, which is less than that of a top-quality cow.
  The price for children is only about one-third of that of adult men. The old and the weak are even less valuable, and basically no one cares about them.
  The price of a woman is very magical. It mainly depends on her beauty and talent. The cheap ones can be bought with two or three gold coins, and the expensive ones have even been sold for thousands of gold coins at auctions.
   Of course, there are exceptions for special status blessings. For example: Elf girls basically start with four digits, and five digits are the norm, and higher numbers are not impossible.
   Special races among orcs can often be sold at high prices, but they are not as exaggerated as elves.
  The main reason is that things are rare and valuable, and the elves are not easy to mess with, and they live together in the elf forest, and the slaves will pay for their lives if they are not caught.
   In comparison, orcs are easier to capture. Earl Pierce has a team of orc fox girls, cat girls... a dancer.
   The harm is mutual, and the orcs often harass the northern border. Human slave hunting teams also often go deep into the orc kingdom to capture some special races with high prices to serve as slaves.
  As a big mine owner, he is destined to deal with slaves. Especially in the case of insufficient labor force, slaves are the main force of mining.
   Seeing that Hudson didn't disband the army, he knew that he had made up his mind to be an unscrupulous mine owner.
   "Master, just hand over the livestock to them for management. If something happens, it will be a big loss.
  How about we let the soldiers who are in charge of taking care of the animals first keep an eye on them, and if they take good care of them, we will hand them over completely. "
  Tom suggested slightly nervously.
  In the continent of Aslante, the status gap between nobles and serfs is so large that it is almost an unbridgeable gap forever.
  According to the usual practice, the nobles have always given orders, and the serfs are responsible for carrying them out. It has never been the serfs' turn to object.
  If it weren’t for Hudson who often encouraged them to put forward their opinions, even if they were wrong, they would not be punished. Tom really didn’t dare to speak.
 "Um!"
   "You really should be careful, just do as you say."
   Hudson said with a smile.
   It's rare to have someone under his command who is willing to use his brains, and the suggestions he put forward are passable. At this time, it is natural to encourage them.
  Have a certain foundation, and have encountered so many difficulties when starting a business and innovating. If he started from nothing, Hudson doubted very much that he would die halfway before stepping out of Novice Village.
  …
