While Gary was busy tormenting his little future wife, Landon was currently in the food industry.
"Do we have enough animal feed for the winter?" Landon asked.
"Yes your majesty... we have enough food for twice the amount of animals at hand right now." Lyore answered.
"Hmmm..that’s good.... although there’s enough animal feed, continue storing more for now.
Don’t forget that at the start of each month, more and more animals will be added to what we already have.
Hence we will have more animal mouths to feed.....Diiscover new stories at novelhall.com
That reminds me.....are the new animal shelter buildings ready yet?"
"Hmm.. no your majesty, not yet." Lyore answered.
For winter... the first thing one had to do, was to ensure that all the animals were kept warm and safe during that period.
Hence, these animals would have to be removed from those horse sheds at the back of the food industry, and placed within warm stone buildings.
So since the Textile industry had just moved out of those 4 buildings, Landon had requested for the chickens, goats and so on... to move into them.
For now, the workers were still making sheds by putting dividers within all rooms within those buildings, so as to accommodate all the animals.
And once everything was completed, all the animals would move in for the winter.
As for the horses gotten from the war with shannon... ever since August, they had already been placed within an estate in the upper region.
So Landon didn’t really have to worry about them at all.
Speaking of horses, these animals could actually do fine living outside during winter...As long as they were metabolically healthy, receive enough calories, have enough water and good warm horse blankets around them.
Yes... horses used a lot of calories during winter to keep themselves warm... so it was important for them to constantly take in these calories daily.
That’s why during winter, they needed high quality ’hay diets’ at all times.
Hence ever since August, Landon had been storing hundreds of dry hay bundles within the warehouse at the horse estate.
And although horses could survive outdoors during winter, Landon had still made different stables within the horse estate for them.
What the horses hated the most wasn’t the snow falling on them, but the harsh winds blowing on their bodies... which made it hard for them to tolerate the winter.
Hence when winter hurricanes or harsh conditions come about, Landon would have them stay within the estates.
He will know what to do."
Chief Gregory was the main head of the agricultural council, hence he also had the duty of making sure that the people never lacked food within Baymard.
Landon had given him a number of secretaries, accountants and a lot of money as his capital.
During times like this, he was supposed to budget what food stuffs Baymard needed, and buy it from Santa.
From there, he would sell it to the food industry and all other commercial stores and so on.
He was also in charge of exportation of food.
So in the future if the food industry had goods like chocolate bars, they would sell them to him.... and he would sell them to Santa and other merchants.
For now, these responsibilities were part of Gregory’s job, since there weren’t a lot of workers right now.
But in the future, it would be given to the merchants of Baymard.... and Gregory would only have to collect the import and export taxes from them.
In terms of food and Agriculture, Baymard was definitely ready for the worst case scenario.
Even if Landon hadn’t opted to buy these summer grown foods from Santa, Baymard would still have its winter grown food stuffs.... so starvation would definitely not happen.
Well for now, they were pretty much prepared for the winter.
