Chapter 504: The Choice of Slave Settlement



Two days passed in a flash. Before dawn, the person in charge of cooking had already gotten up and prepared the meal, placing it in a large ceramic basin to cool so that everyone could eat it.

The ingredients were selected by the Son of God and the leader last night, and they were quite rich.

When the sky was just getting light, the Qingque tribe began to become lively.

Those who were going to the war came to eat after washing. Everyone ate their fill. After drinking a bowl of sour but irresistible wine, they picked up the weapons that had been prepared long ago and began to prepare to set off.

By now, the wine has been completely accepted by everyone in the Qingque tribe, and many of them have become loyal fans of the wine.

It’s a pity that due to the limited amount of wine, people usually don’t have any wine to drink unless it’s an important day.

This year was different. After the beginning of autumn, the tribe launched three consecutive expeditions. Each time, there was wine to encourage the expedition.

This made some primitive drunkards very excited, and they thought that if every year could be like this year, they could carry out a few more expeditions so that they could drink more of the wonderful wine.

The desire for wine completely overcame the fear of conquest.

The gate of the deer pen was also opened. The old deer, who had been feeling aggrieved for a long time, walked out and snorted at Han Cheng, obviously feeling extremely dissatisfied with Han Cheng's confinement.

Han Cheng smiled and handed over a handful of refreshing rapeseed, while reaching out to gently scratch its face.

In view of the attentiveness of the grown-up little two-legged beast, Uncle Deer generously chose to forgive this shameless guy.

She accepted Han Cheng's gift with peace of mind, moving her mouth as she ate the rapeseed happily.

Han Cheng looked at the arrogant Uncle Lu and smiled slyly.

I will allow you to be arrogant for a moment, and later you will know that the hospitality of this Son of God is not so easy to accept.

After Uncle Deer woke up from this inhuman treatment, he turned around and found that his stronger "wife and children" were tied up with a number of stacked leather bags.

Some of the pockets were still filled, and even its body was no exception. The smiling two-legged beast personally put two pockets tied together on its back, one on each side of its body.

Han Cheng couldn't help laughing out loud as he watched Uncle Lu being led forward by Tietou, turning back from time to time to snort at him to vent his dissatisfaction.

"Go to work obediently, and I'll feed you rapeseed when you come back!"

Uncle Deer responded with a series of snorts and a muffled fart.

It seems that this guy is very angry with Han Cheng.

The rest of the deer also followed Uncle Deer.

This expedition is going to be a long one, so it is necessary to bring them with us.

When you go, you can help the eldest brother and others carry food and weapons.

When they come back, they can carry a lot of food obtained from the Tengshe tribe.

With this large group of deer around, there wouldn’t be much food left that the Tengshe tribe had worked so hard to store.

And even if they couldn't carry all the food, the captured slaves could still carry it.

Han Cheng has decided to empty the caves where the Tengshe tribe lives and not leave any fruit for them.

The strongest group of fighters in the tribe left, and the entire tribe immediately became a little empty.

Han Cheng stood at the door and watched for a while, then began to arrange the work.

Seventeen of the slaves were not seriously injured and were able to start working after a few days of rest.

Slaves are there to be used, no matter what kind of slaves they are.

Han Cheng would naturally not let them stay in the tribe and eat for free.

So these seventeen people were taken out of the pigsty, carrying unfamiliar bone shovels and hoes, as well as tools such as hooks, hoes, and wheelbarrows, and under the supervision of several people from the Qingque tribe, they walked out of the tribal gate and began to dig and transport soil not too far away.

Their task was to fill in the traps that had been dug in front of the gate.

People who used to only know how to hunt and gather food will naturally feel unfamiliar when doing such things for the first time.

However, it is not unreasonable that people without sharp teeth and claws can still survive from the primitive times.

The biggest advantage is the strong learning ability.

Moreover, the fear and tension caused by being monitored by the people of the Green Bird Tribe with stone spears further enhanced their ability to learn.

After the people of the Qingque tribe demonstrated it, I practiced clumsily for a while, and then gradually got the hang of it.

Wu also came out, stood beside Han Cheng, and looked at the group of slaves working with a smile on his face.

This is indeed a good workforce.

Looking at this group of slaves, most of whom walked with a limp, Han Cheng's smiling face suddenly twitched.

In the past, he had thought that if he collected seven dragon balls, he could summon a dragon. If he collected seven lame...

As a result, the idea that seemed like a joke at that time has now come true.

At least a quarter of these slaves had lame legs. This is really...

The work of this group of slaves was not as simple as filling up several large pits at the gate of the courtyard. After they filled up these large pits, there was another important thing to do, which was to ram the earth walls and build a house.

The weather is getting colder, and it is not a good idea to keep them living in a pigsty without any pigs.

Han Cheng took them as slaves in order to make them work more for the tribe and create more means of production, but he had no intention of abusing them.

But where to build the house is a troublesome matter.

The most important issue is whether to build it inside the courtyard of the Qingque tribe or outside.

Built in the courtyard, it can strengthen the control over the slaves. At the same time, when the tribe is in danger, these slaves can also go up the wall to fight.

But there were also disadvantages. The disadvantage was that one had to be on guard against slave riots at all times, and had to be careful even when sleeping, lest a slave accidentally bump into the room while sleeping and have his head cut off.

Simply moving the slaves outside the courtyard did reduce the threat to the tribe, but it was not conducive to the supervision and control of these slaves.

Always keep an eye out for them trying to sneak away at night.

This is a distressing thing.

"Build houses for slaves outside the courtyard..."

After listening to Han Cheng's words and understanding his dilemma, Wu quickly gave an answer.

In his opinion, the lives of everyone in the tribe are the most important. Even if building the place where the slaves live outside is not conducive to control, it is better than being threatened all the time.

Wu's words made Han Cheng stop hesitating.

Yes, compared with what is not conducive to strengthening control over slaves, one’s own life is the most precious and important.

Safety first, how could I have forgotten this principle?
