I hesitated to reply. This all was so complex—I barely understood the meaning of some words Bishop said. He must've sensed it, because he smiled and kept talking.
"You came from a village, didn't you, Hector? You must know that when the entire village works together, they can grow more crops than if they each till and sow their own land."
Now he was talking with words I could understand. "Yes! And then they could share the plough, too, and horses to pull it. And it's more convenient to till the entire field and then count how much of the grain goes to everyone than to move the ploughs from one field from another, so more work can be done. Is that was you meant, Bishop?"
