Roman wracked his brain to improve food production so as to support a larger population.
A million pounds of food sounds like a lot, but Origin City has nearly fifty thousand inhabitants.
It was all used up in less than a month!
All food production is cyclical.
Even if it's vegetables, which grow quickly, they still require twenty to thirty days to mature and they don't fully satisfy hunger, only serving as supplements.
This was also why Roman did not dare to freely buy slaves.
Otherwise, he could easily trade a million arrows for one hundred thousand slaves with Alex.
Black Iron Land is the strongest and most prosperous land kingdom among the Seven Kingdoms.
The Conqueror occupied the richest Central Valley of the entire vast lands.
Roman believed that the population of Black Iron Land was at least ten million - at the very least.
Ten million, even twenty million was possible.
This one hundred thousand population was barely one percent of Black Iron Land.
