Chapter 2029 Human Resources and Low Animal Power
"Here, go first and take a shower in the big tent. There are clothes inside. Throw the clothes you are wearing aside. Shave your hair. The hair on the armpits and lower body of men and women should be washed well..."
Li Enzhong stood outside several tents and shouted to a group of people in a commanding manner.
These people were slaves and were exchanged for them by Li Jia Zhuangzi.
There was no time to clean them up a little bit, so all the hair was shaved off. Several local women who knew how to style hair were found to shave the female slaves.
The male slaves are taken care of by the Southwest Barbarians. They cannot be polite now. They are too polite and the slaves are not used to it.
Many times slaves will actively defend the status of their slave owners, like Stockholm syndrome.
Li Enzhong felt happy as he watched people lining up to bathe in wooden buckets.
Cheap! A slave cost less than a sheep in the winter.
The sheep can be eaten, but it is inconvenient for the slaves to eat. There is not much work to do in winter. The slaves starve to death, which is a loss. If they do not starve to death, they will eat for several months in vain.
Those who raised slaves sold them, and there were also those who specialized in selling slaves. The most troublesome thing is now, unless it is a beautiful woman or man.
Others were unwilling to take good care of them, but Li Enzhong was willing to take them back.
He understands! The importance of a manpower cannot be replaced by a hundred sheep, not to mention one sheep.
The proprietor could not continue to look for slaves in the Tang Dynasty. When he met slaves, he had to rescue them, buy them and arrange jobs for them.
This refers to people from the Tang Dynasty who became slaves due to various circumstances.
The outside proprietor doesn't care, he doesn't care, he won't buy anyway, for fear of spies.
It was my first time to buy slaves in Bohai Country, and it was too late to arrange for spies.
Take the slave in front of you back and rest for a while. Once your body is well, you can arrange things to do and teach knowledge along the way.
I am the slave of Li Family Village. How many sheep are I worth?
The slaves went in to take a bath obediently. They were used to it, or in other words, they were numb.
Their only pursuit is to stay alive!
After bathing and changing into clean clothes, the slave put on his leather hat and ate next to him.
Chicken soup is provided for free to anyone who wants to drink it. It also has oil and smells good.
The slaves had limited amounts of chicken, rice, and pickles to eat, and the southwestern barbarians were responsible for preparing the meals.
They look at the slave's body height, short, fat and thin, and judge how much the slave should eat. They are not allowed to eat too much until he or she dies.
Some slaves brought children with them. The children were not necessarily born between slaves and slaves, but could also be born between the master and a female slave.
Usually in this situation, a respectable person would not admit it, even if the child is his.
He would line up a male slave and ask him to marry a female slave. He would even directly tell the female slave what happened to someone, and then kill all the female slaves and their children.
The Bohai people have a king, and their class structure is more rigorous than that of the Turks.
The Turks are not afraid. Children born by female slaves are also their own children. They admit it.
Such children are placed next to their mothers, and the older ones are given a pheasant leg to chew on!
It is difficult for the little ones to eat meat, so unless they drink meat porridge, they will eat tofu. The tofu made by the southwestern barbarians.
The tofu is still hot. Boil the tempeh in water, pour a little juice on the tofu, and the children will eat it with a spoon.
It's a pity that it's winter now, and pheasants don't lay eggs. They are struggling to stay alive. They can't do it until spring, otherwise they will eat the eggs.
The people in Lijiazhuangzi were afraid that the slaves would gorge themselves on food, which would be bad for their stomachs.
As a result, the slaves ate in small bites, chewing carefully after each bite.
"They eat elegantly!" Li Enxi said as he looked at them.
Li Ennan glared at him: "When you were working hard at someone else's house, you would eat a pound of beef with soy sauce."
"Where can I find it? There is no beef in sauce. The proprietor made some braised sauce and no one cooked it for me. Oh, beef!" Li Enxi said.
"What if there is?" Li Ennan emphasized.
"I hid it and ate it secretly, a little at a time. Oh~~ yes, they are reluctant to eat it now."
Li Enxi realized that the slaves probably seldom ate the food they had now, for fear that they would be full, and they were also worried that they would eat too quickly and not taste the taste.
"Tofu and bean sprouts were only eaten by rich people in the past."
Li Ennan said with emotion, when there is no proprietor, the average person can eat tofu and bean sprouts once every half a month, which is considered good.
Now it has become a normal home dish in Jingzhao and Henan Prefectures.
So many gadgets, when combined, can save people a lot of time. Only when people's income increases can they afford food.
The two people chatted. The slaves didn't care what the new masters said to each other. Anyway, they thought the food was delicious.
I have eaten before. When the master encounters something happy, the leftovers are given to the slaves below.
At that time, we were robbing each other. If we didn’t fight, we wouldn’t be able to eat.
Now it's in front of you, whoever owns it belongs to you, no one else is allowed to touch it.
The children among the slaves lowered their heads to eat, while the tofu eaters shaved the tofu with their teeth, bit by bit, and licked the tofu into their mouths with their tongues until they were broken into pieces on the roof of their mouth before chewing it into their stomachs.
The slaves who have finished eating are arranged to rest and sleep. Knowing that you are not eating well, you have to clear snow and carry things to exchange.
You are all tired. By the way, you have been sold again, and you are full of worries and fears about the future.
After eating, take a nap and you will be fine when you wake up. Don't let yourself think about things when your body is at its worst.
People in Lijiazhuangzi are familiar with this kind of operation, because Li Yi deliberately let them experience it.
When they are tired, someone spreads the news that they will be expelled and driven overseas. In such a state, they find nothing pleasing to their eyes and feel abandoned by the whole world.
Later, it was discovered that it was not, but that they would be given more monthly allowances, and whoever the female slaves liked would get one.
At that moment, they felt that the sky was clear and they owned the whole world.
This was the state, and after they knew it, they began to strengthen their confidence, I am the strongest, I will not fall, no matter what I face.
The general of the army can be taken away, but the will of the common man cannot be taken away.
Even if he is a woodcutter, he must be strong when he encounters danger while cutting wood in the mountains in winter, and he cannot give up, because he has a wife, children and parents at home.
Don't look down on yourself, don't think you are useless, you have strength, you are not stupid, you just lack an opportunity.
If others don't give you a chance, you will get the opportunity through other means.
Tell yourself that you are guaranteed to be strong, and don't be discouraged, otherwise you will become depressed as the host said.
Li Endong and others received this kind of education. They are tenacious, but they don't understand that others may not be the same as them, unless the slaves succeed and go back.
At that time, the host will teach and encourage... Oh, he is so good at calming people's hearts.
On the other hand, Fan Fan continued to win over people with Yulin Flying Cavalry. Do you want to go to the Tang Dynasty?
In the Tang Dynasty, there is meat to eat, and it is not cold in winter and not hot in summer.
Don't disbelieve it, do you know the Book of Songs? It says in it that thunder roars in winter and snows in summer.
See, it's right? Come with me, and set off at dawn.
Anyway, in order to deceive people to go to the Tang Dynasty, Fan Fan is shameless, and all kinds of distorted explanations and out-of-context quotes.
