Chapter 311 - 191: Food Supply and Education
"Hmm." Maximus nodded approvingly: "Yulitimos, I know as well, is indeed a very capable carpenter! Does anyone have any other recommendations?"
No one else responded,
After all, Volenus had served as the administrative officer of the rebel army and had registered most of the people who joined the team, evaluating their capabilities. Capito had served as the head of the Supply Camp and managed a large team of engineers and craftsmen. It could be said that these two had most of the knowledgeable and capable talents of the rebel army under their command.
Although the kitchens of Acronis and the Female Camp of Karina had many people, their cultural quality was much lower. The army did have a few suitable candidates, but they were all senior officers, whom Flanitnus was reluctant to part with.
Gaius now regretted: If he had worked earnestly in the rebel army before, he could have discovered some talents, recommended them to the leader, gained favor, and would have been more beneficial for his future development in the tribe.
Maximus waited for a while, seeing that indeed no one else had any recommendations, he said: "If we let Yulitimos be the City Lord of Westeni, it would waste his most skilled talents. I think it’s better to let him be the head of the shipbuilding workshop, lead other shipwrights, and help the tribe produce better and more ships... Hmm, so let’s let Sicropus serve as the City Lord of Vestini, what does everyone think?"
Capito and Volenus agreed, and with no other objections, the appointment was decided.
With the matters concerning the development of agriculture, industry, commerce, and military of the Nix Tribe settled, Maximus slightly relaxed and asked: "Does anyone have any other suggestions?"
Gaius couldn’t wait to speak loudly: "Leader, we in the Finance Department now have an important issue that concerns the survival of the whole tribe, and that is a food shortage! Originally, when Volenus handed over the supplies to me, our current food supply was quite sufficient for the original 15,000 people in the team.
But after we captured Snowdonia and Westeni, over ten thousand joined the tribe, making the food supply somewhat tight. Fortunately, we urgently planted a lot of beans and vegetables on the lands around Snowdonia, and their growth is good. I estimated based on their maximum yield that it could barely sustain us until June of next year.
