marking the coldest period of the entire winter.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Once the snowmelt period is over, the temperature will gradually begin to rise, slowly transitioning into spring.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It must be noted that it is already late January now.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There are only a few days left until the arrival of February.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the Karedi Empire, which has a temperate marine climate, signs of spring will appear by the end of February.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>By early March, spring will fully arrive, and all things will be revitalized.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That is to say.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In order for the winter barley planted during this snow to enter spring and show any signs of vitality.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This snowfall’s arrival would be a devastating blow to other planters!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They don’t have the function of checking the weather with the [Weather Forecast].\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nor have they figured out a way to salvage crops spread by planting from adverse weather!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They completely rely on nature’s favor to earn their meals!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If the weather is good, they can harvest a batch of crops and grains from the land.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If the weather is bad, they won’t harvest anything, and they’ll have to rely on reserves.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thinking of this, Lynn’s brows immediately furrowed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If this is indeed the case, the entire Karedi Empire will fall into a food crisis!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There might even be starvation everywhere!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Keep in mind, the entire population of the Karedi Empire is at least over 200 million people!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This figure doesn’t include the population consisting of slaves.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Slaves are slaves, and they aren’t counted as population.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Among these, only a few people own their own land.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They might have reserved grains in recent years.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ordinary free farmer citizens, who work diligently every day, can at most grow food to meet the just necessary rations for their family.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They can’t possibly have any grain reserves.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They even need to do other work to buy food.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This means that after this snowfall, winter barley planted in winter will significantly reduce its yield in autumn.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Relying solely on the food planted in spring, with a two-field system of farming, is far from enough to support the vast population’s grain consumption of the Karedi Empire.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They... including Lynn, may not be able to purchase a large amount of grain from outside!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What does a lack of grain mean?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It means famine, it means a sharp decrease in population.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It means social unrest, it means increased crime rates!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It means a rapid economic decline.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>People might even wage plundering wars for a bite of food!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A crisis is coming!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for the scale and extent of this crisis.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It depends on how many young shoots of winter barley can spring up and thrive after spring begins!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When the temperature starts to rise, and merchants return to the territory, Lynn will immediately request them to transport a large amount of grain to his territory.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even if it’s above market prices, he wouldn’t hesitate!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only by stockpiling more grain can this territory survive in chaotic times.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With starvation, unable to provide the townsmen with enough food.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even a Divine Apostle would betray their faith in God!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And besides.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With more grain, he can take in more migrants from the chaotic times.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Lynn continuously speculated, his inner self gradually became excited.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For others, it’s troubled times, no doubt.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But for him, how isn’t it an opportunity?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Others can’t provide food for migrants, but he can.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Naturally, migrants will continuously converge towards his territory.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As long as the population on the territory continues to increase, the territory will develop explosively!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With the sharp population increase, rapid development speed, it’s natural.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lynn also understands that to accommodate a large number of migrants, the territory must have enough armed forces to suppress them!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Otherwise.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It’s extremely easy for these starved, frenzied migrants to counterattack!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lynn let out a breath of hot air, temporarily suppressing in his mind the development and plans for later.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even though he can already speculate on what will happen in a few months, there’s still some distance before then.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Development needs to come step by step, don’t wish for instant success.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Lynn returned to the town, his mind moved, and he opened the [Holographic Map] to check.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a night of heavy snowfall, almost all outdoor work positions came to a halt.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The excavation of the three major veins has long been brought to a standstill.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lynn directly ordered the guards to call them back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rather than staying on the veins alone, enduring the cold.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It’s better to return to the town to shovel snow and restore the wheat sprouts!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only the Salt Factory continued with production and making.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The efficiency of mining rock salt is higher than the Salt Factory’s consumption, so there are dozens of tons of rock salt waiting for the Salt Factory to continue using.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Low temperatures cause the daily output of the Salt Factory to drop, which is unavoidable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Salt Factory’s method of making salt is through evaporation and crystallization, the higher the temperature, the faster the evaporation speed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Conversely, it will reduce.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even if the output of fine salt drops to only two thousand pounds a day, Lynn has no intention of stopping it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After spring begins, he will need a large amount of fine salt to trade with the merchants coming to the territory, for a large number of slaves and grain!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Afterward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lynn checked the ranch and Papermaking Workshop, among others.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After confirming that everything was normal, Lynn closed the [Holographic Map].\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He stepped forward towards the Blacksmith Workshop.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon entering the Blacksmith Workshop, a wave of heat mixed with the smell of Anthracite instantly enveloped Lynn.\u003C\u002Fp>",951,"2026-05-29T04:50:48.605Z","2026-06-01T04:29:11.989Z",1,"novelbin.me","53ced45da13a716ae7cd55fcc8df2239f94c548c8d37bc4cc6b94c81002f911c","system-build-my-own-territory-chapter-412","system-build-my-own-territory-chapter-410",979,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fsystem-build-my-own-territory-cover.jpg"]
