Although he has not yet confirmed.
Whether Viscount Jon Zack instigated Manor Lord Zok to investigate Morgan Town under his control.
But Lynn feels it's likely.
Otherwise.
Why would a manor lord with only five hundred soldiers dare to covet Morgan Town, occupied by armored soldiers?
Fully armed armored soldiers, in contrast with ordinary soldiers wearing leather armor and cloth armor.
The difference in combat power is indeed too great!
As for Manor Lord Zok's suspicions and vigilance mentioned by Bader...
He does not care at all.
If they dare send spies into Morgan Town to gather intelligence.
Zock Connally must be prepared to bear his wrath!
However, the summer planting in his territory is not yet complete.
Morgan Town is still in the middle of the summer harvest.
Furthermore.
They have not yet clearly investigated the strength of Viscount Jon Zack's supporters.
And the thousand sets of composite armor in the blacksmith and weaving workshops have not yet been completed.
To be on the safe side, he can wait a little longer!
Suppressing his thoughts, Lynn inquired of Earl about the current harvesting progress in Morgan Town.
Although the free people recruited by Boer know they can get a tenth of the weight of the harvested crops.
They are working tirelessly every day.
Even so.
Each of them can only harvest about three acres a day.
Based on the current six hundred free people in Morgan Town.
They have been harvesting for a month straight.
Which means.
The crops in Morgan Town have so far only been harvested from over fifty thousand acres!
There are still sixty to seventy thousand acres of various crop fields waiting to be harvested.
At this rate, if no unexpected issues arise, it will take at least another month to complete the harvest.
Another month means reaching the end of August.
Or even early September.
Waiting for the free people to finish plowing the land, they would directly miss the summer planting.
Because of the recent harvest, the land in Morgan Town naturally cannot be immediately used for grain planting again.
Even with heavy plows for cultivation and compost to increase soil fertility.
It is still impossible for that land to yield a large amount of grain planting again.
He is not lacking barley seeds for planting.
Ninety-nine million pounds of winter barley are enough for the land in Morgan Town to be planted.
What he lacks most are labor and time!
If Boer cannot hire more free people for him to send to Morgan Town.
With the current six hundred labor force.
Wanting to cultivate and plant the twelve hundred thousand acres of arable land in Morgan Town.
Is simply a fool's dream.
Even so, Lynn doesn't have too much worry in his heart.
Because his initial goal and plan.
Was merely to harvest as many of the crops from the land in Morgan Town as possible under the premise of safety.
Despite the issues caused by the number of laborers, resulting in low harvesting efficiency.
However.
No matter how low it is, it has already harvested over fifty thousand acres of land.
And transported it back to his territory in carriages.
In his view, this is already considered an extra gain.
As long as all crops in Morgan Town can be harvested.
The subsequent planting can be planned slowly by him.
Remember.
Outside his territory now, the Imperial Authority battle has already begun.
With Viscount Jon Zack and a group of manor lords coveting.
In such a situation with dark currents flowing.
Even if the land in Morgan Town remains uncultivated for one or two planting seasons, he doesn't care.
Having roughly understood the harvesting progress in Morgan Town from Earl.
Lynn instructed Earl a few more words before letting him retreat.
Watching Earl mount a warhorse, escorting the spy Bader away with several soldiers.
Lynn was about to retract his gaze.
From afar, several cavalry figures galloped towards Lord's Square again.
Waiting for the cavalry figures to gradually approach.
Under the rays of the setting sun.
Lynn clearly saw, on the chest armor of each cavalryman, there was a conspicuous cross badge.
That is the exclusive symbol of the Church!
Under Lynn's gaze, the cavalry stopped at Lord's Square.
The burly middle-aged man riding the horse swept his gaze around.
Soon.
Upon seeing the young man on the far-off bench, Samuel's eyes lit up.
Without any useless words, he moved, dismounted, and strode towards Lynn.
Behind him followed four armored soldiers.
In contrast to the townsmen's familiarity with Earl and his group in armor.
Samuel and his companions' chest armor marked with the cross symbol stood out.
Some passing townsmen cast curious glances.
Under the gaze of many townsmen, Samuel led the soldiers to Lynn's presence.
Samuel slightly bowed, saluting with the Church's etiquette, and smiled, saying: "Lord Lynn, long time no see."
Lynn raised his eyebrows slightly and responded: "Indeed, long time no see, Captain Samuel."
"I thought Bishop Semo no longer needed me to pay the tithes."
Since Bishop Semo led Samuel and a group of cavalry to the town and left after, they had not appeared again.
Had it not been for Semo issuing the decree of Morgan Town's ownership in Kakasong City.
Lynn would have thought nothing had ever happened.
Looking at the young lord still seated on the bench, Samuel cared little.
