Hi. I think the details of what the author said were not included in your post. I researched and found similar question but with the additional information. Here's my answer:
According to the author, the conditions in Europe during 800's was chaotic. The Frankish Empire was disintegrated to federation of feudal lords, Church did not have power, knights forcing the peasants to pay taxes. Muslims controlled Spain.
The correct answer for the question that is being presented above is this one: "revenue." Economies of scale involve decreasing revenue as output rises. Given that the revenue decreases, then the output of the economy should be increased.
