Dominic mentally worked through the plans for the Duchy.
"Once the teleportation arrays are made, we can start arranging regular pickups from the Trollish villages in Kinewen Province. We can pay them in cash, goods, goats, whatever it is that they want.
I suspect that the answer is goats.
The old common logic was that two thirds of the population needed to be involved in agriculture, either on the farm or making tools for the farmers. I don't think we actually need that many anymore, with magic and magitech equipment.
However, since we have them, there is no reason not to leverage the amount of farmland that we can cultivate.
Axbridge is a desert, and I may or may not have caused the death of half the population of Dagos. So, there is a rather distinct shortage of farmers in the region. Then, we've got the rest of Cygnia, who lost a crop to the war, and was honestly kind of trash at it to begin with."
