The thirty-odd orcs, having washed themselves clean, stood outside. The intense heat quickly dried their hair, making them feel much cleaner after the bath!
I feel like I've lost two ounces of weight!
It was only a little before seven in the morning.
Every household started cooking, and the aroma of rice made the stomachs of the arriving orcs rumble.
"We've all cooked this wild vegetable porridge to welcome you today."
There wasn't much porridge, only a small half bowl per person, but it wasn't just plain water, nor was it thin porridge with only a few grains of rice. Instead, it was a porridge that was half water and half rice. According to the standards for porridge in the wasteland world, this was considered thick porridge!
Because there weren't enough bowls, everyone took turns drinking from the bowl, washing it clean, and then drinking from it themselves.
Many of the orcs began to cry.
Many skinny children even smacked their lips, savoring the taste of the wild vegetable porridge. It was so delicious!
"Why are you crying? Now that you've come to our territory, the good days are yet to come!"
"That's right. As long as you're willing to work, the lord is fair in rewarding and punishing you and won't skimp on your rations. We've been here for more than half a month and have already saved up a little bit of surplus food! But the children are growing, so we've decided to give them more to eat. There will be rewards for more work! We'll save up our share of the rewards then!"
Everyone laughed as they talked about it; these are days that give us hope!
Lord Qin Yiyi came out and listened to these people talking. She stroked her chin. Perhaps now that there is a surplus of grain, a market can be opened in the territory to sell some cloth or necessary daily necessities!
"Greetings, my lord!"
Good morning, my lord!
"Your Highness looks even more beautiful today than yesterday!"
Qin Yiyi surveyed her territory with her head held high. Hmph, these sycophants! She would never admit that she got up early to survey her territory just to listen to their flattery!
"It seems quite a few new hired workers have arrived!"
Bear Cub's mother shook her head.
"Lord, they've all come to be slaves. You mentioned before that your territory is short of people, could you please tell me if they're suitable?"
Even if they had made some very persuasive promises, it was still up to the lord to decide whether or not to agree.
Qin Yiyi was stunned. She hadn't come here to be a hired worker, but instead wanted to be her slave.
While it's true that slaves are easier to control than hired workers, she was saying that... perhaps these people couldn't afford to pay taxes, so they became slaves.
But think about it, couldn't the older employees have saved up their extra rations? Even if they sold them in the chaotic area, they wouldn't be unable to pay the taxes, right?
The slaves in her territory are so strange. Why do they all prefer to save a little tax money rather than redeem themselves?
And then there's this... someone who willingly came and sold themselves out.
This is... hard to judge!
But it was indeed very beneficial for her.
"Sure, but you need to register first, and you must clearly state any special skills you have!"
After Qin Yiyi finished giving her instructions, she let the slaves go about their business. Her system was constantly being improved and optimized. She used the system to manage people, and when necessary, she would demonstrate the methods and skills of a lord.
The rest is up to you to decide, as long as it doesn't involve her bottom line, principles, or rules.
"Yes, please specify if you are skilled in plumbing, electrical work, renovation, repair, etc. Also, please clearly explain the different types of orcs, such as flying orcs and crawling orcs!"
"We will assign work based on your abilities to maximize productivity!"
"For example, flying orcs! We currently lack flying orcs for security, because the nine people on duty are mostly reptiles in three shifts. Flying orcs can scout enemies from high altitudes! We plan to form a flying security team!"
"The flight security team gets selected for a daily allowance of three ounces of low-pollution rice, plus other benefits!"
Upon hearing this, the orcs, who had been merely listening attentively to the territory rules, couldn't help but ask, "Do you accept all flying creatures? Do you accept bats?"
He is often looked down upon because he is a bat-type flying beastman, not good-looking, and sleeps upside down.
He was afraid that he would be discriminated against because of these circumstances and not allowed to participate in the organization.
"Bat-orcs?" Ox-Head and Horse-Face are quite professional now. Although they still bicker over trivial matters, they can each stand on their own.
"Yes, I am a bat-orc, a pure-blooded bat-orc. My ancestors for three generations have never mixed with the blood of other birds, so my hearing is excellent, and I can also locate things using ultrasound!"
Bats have poor eyesight but excellent hearing, and they are also adept at using poison!
Ox-Head and Horse-Face looked at this person's appearance.
It is indeed a descendant of a purebred bat-orc, otherwise it wouldn't be this ugly!
"We'll take you in, we'll take you all. There will be elders to guide you through the territory rules and how to conduct yourself!"
They accept both bats and orcs, so it seems there's no discrimination involved.
"Would you accept an owl? My father is an owl, and I have other bloodlines, but my night vision is excellent. I can team up with a bat; it's a perfect combination!"
"Then we've got someone for the night shift. How about security during the day? I have the blood of a gyrfalcon! Even if it's only a third of it!"
In a short time, people started registering, and these people began to look for their own advantages and start selling their wares.
Before long, it was past seven o'clock, and more and more people were gathering around.
"Experienced players mentoring newcomers! Our team is currently ranked first in team points, so we can mentor ten new players!"
One per person on average.
The points system includes not only individual points but also team points, primarily to inspire a sense of team honor!
"We can train eight new recruits! If you need us to train someone, please contact us. Our team has security personnel and electricians. If you have the relevant skills, you can join the team to discuss. Our team emphasizes harmony!"
"The team that gets the most points will receive a team reward based on their overall contribution!"
"We only know that there are rewards for good individual performance, but are there also rewards for good team performance?"
"Of course! In our territory, the more you work, the more you earn! As long as you're willing to work, you'll definitely be able to eat your fill!"
All the newly arrived orcs couldn't wait to start working. They had only heard a little about it before and already thought it was paradise, even if it meant being slaves! Now that they heard this, they had no regrets. If this were slave treatment, they would be willing to be slaves for life!
Quickly handcuff them to death with slave bracelets!
They will all be the lord's slaves from now on, bound to the lord tightly. As long as the lord doesn't say he doesn't want them, they will follow him to the ends of the earth!
"Enough talk, let's register first. If you're not registered and assigned by nine o'clock and it takes up time, you'll only get half a day's work today!"
