Chapter 140: Changes in Yunjiazhuang
In the end, Yun Tianye still paid five hundred gold coins, and he didn't cut down a single gold coin, but he was still moved by the trafficker's 'sincerity' and made concessions.
Very 'reluctantly', he accepted twenty female slaves and thirty male slaves, as well as the twin little female slaves, and returned to Yunjiazhuang with a team of people.
Yun Tianye is also satisfied with this deal, and he is also satisfied with the general manager of Laifu. A housekeeper who knows how to be diligent and thrifty is a good housekeeper, and he can save himself a lot of trouble in the future.
"Everyone, from today on, you are all from Yunjiazhuang. All food and accommodation will be taken care of by Yunjiazhuang. Of course, our young master spent so many gold coins to buy you back, not to buy you back to raise, but to buy you back to work! If anyone is lazy, then don't blame me, the manager, for being unkind. Well, I'm going to invite the young master to speak! Everyone applauds!"
According to Yun Tianye's request, Laifu stood the fifty men and women separately, and stood neatly under a high platform that had been newly built not long ago.
Yun Tianye was surprised to find that the cultivation of this Laifu was not very good, but he was born to be an official, and this posture was like those bureaucrats on the earth, or the kind that had no teacher.
"Uh, okay, everybody stop. I'll just say a few words, everyone is not so nervous. It doesn't matter what you did before, what your status is, but you must remember that you are now slaves, slaves that I bought you back with gold. So I need to say two things to you, first, you had better not try to escape. If you are discovered, there is only one end, and that is death! What I want is absolute obedience, and I don't want the kind of person who has a personal mind. Your life and death contract is in my hands, and I have the power to decide your life and death. Did you hear me clearly?"
Yun Tianye stood on the high platform, looking down at the fifty newly bought slaves below, and had the feeling that the school leader was giving a lecture to the students. However, now the two sides are not in a teacher-student relationship, although Yun Tianye is also sympathetic to these people, but in this barbaric world, sympathy is just a burden, and it is not necessary for the strong.
“......”
As Yun Tianye spoke, he released a trace of aura intentionally or unintentionally, enveloping them all. Every syllable that Yun Tianye spoke brought a powerful pressure on the minds of these slaves.
"But you don't need to worry, I, Yun Tianye, also sympathize with everyone's fate, and I don't plan to leave you in Yunjiazhuang to do a lifetime of hard work. From my personal point of view, I am very supportive of your ability to change your destiny through your own efforts in the future. I can also promise you here that if there is a day in the future, I will definitely give you back a free body. Seeing that no one responded, Yun Tianye continued.
Managing people, grace and power are king. Yun Tianye, who has had a modern education on the earth, actually does not advocate slave management in the depths of his mind. Compared with the capital management model, this slave management model is too backward. If it is possible, even if it is to pay more than a part of the gold coins paid, Yun Tianye still chooses to choose a more efficient capital management model.
It was precisely because of this thought that Yun Tianye would say such a thing.
"Huh?" The slaves below wondered if they had heard it wrong, and Yun Tianye actually said such a thing.
But I have never heard of any slave owner who would be so merciful, and who is not willing to squeeze every slave out after buying a slave?
In the eyes of the slave owner, the slave was nothing more than a tool, a tool that they bought back for gold coins, and never showed any favor to the slave. If you die, throw it away, and if you don't die, you will continue to work as a coolie. Even after death, the descendants of slaves are still unable to get rid of their status as slaves. Regaining freedom? It's unthinkable!
And Yun Tianye's words, the people below didn't believe it, even Laifu himself looked at Yun Tianye with suspicious eyes.
"Cloud ...... Cloud...... Young master, is what you said true? I can really regain my freedom?"
Standing at the front, among the many tall slaves, a figure with a relatively thin body trembled out and asked.
"Bastard, do you dare to question the young master's words? Do you want to be whipped?" Laifu recognized the man at a glance, it was a thin and sick boy, and the trafficker forced him in. If it weren't for Yun Tianye's nod, Laifu wouldn't want this kind of waste that seems to be powerless to catch chickens.
"Laifu! What are you yelling at? Let him say! By the way, your name is Luan An, right? That's right, but I'm just saying that to give you the opportunity to regain your free body, whether you can grasp it or not depends on the efforts of each of you! I can only guarantee that in our Yunjiazhuang, we can give everyone a platform to work hard together, as long as you are willing to work hard, you can have a future of your own. Yun Tianye glared at Laifu and nodded at the bold slave.
This slave named Luan An, the reason why Yun Tianye was willing to want him was because in the numb eyes of so many slaves, the only one still carried a glimmer of hope and an urgent desire for freedom. The other slaves, one by one, were lifeless, as if they had lost their souls, and they were all walking corpses, and Yun Tianye didn't want his Zhuangzi to be full of such a group of people.
Therefore, it is very necessary for Yun Tianye to leave them a hope, a goal to strive for, in order to stimulate their vitality that has been worn out.
In fact, in this world, only Yun Tianye would do this when he was full of food and support, which was definitely a thankless task in the eyes of others.
"Do we really have a future of our own?"
Such a rebellious remark, let alone say it, if you think about it for a while, the former owner will immediately whip it. The current master, the brain, is really fine, right?
Many slaves were very skeptical of Yun Tianye's words, but they had to admit that Yun Tianye's words were very sensational, which made their dead hearts throb a little.
Yun Tianye didn't say much, but it was all a combination of grace and power, and after listening to it, even a few little guys such as Laifu and Yun San had red eyes, and they couldn't help but shout loudly.
Listening to so many people shouting loudly, Yun Tianye had the illusion of planning a pyramid scheme.
Yun Tianye believes that it is very necessary to gather these people every few days in the future to brainwash, cough cough, it should be said that it is necessary to hold a meeting to unify their thinking.
In the past few days, a lot of new houses have been built, and this time there are fifty more people and there is a place to settle down, all of which were built on the scale of the student dormitory in the previous life, so there is no big problem.
Among the thirty male slaves, except for the thin Luan An, the rest were all strong and powerful slaves, and one was stronger than a cow. Yun Tianye divided them into two teams, one team was managed by Yun San, who was specifically responsible for clearing the wasteland. The first team is managed by Yun Qi, and they are dedicated to taking care of the medicine garden. As for the twenty slave girls, they were scattered all over Zhuangzi to take charge of the logistics, mainly some light work, which was quickly distributed.
In the end, what was left was the pair of twin little slave girls, which made Yun Tianye a little blind. They look like they're only twelve or thirteen years old at most, and they're still little Lori, so I really don't know how to arrange them.
What is too evil to serve, Yun Tianye really can't do it, and he is a little reluctant to let them go. After thinking about it, I finally listened to Laifu's suggestion and let them do it for a while. Now I am also a farmer no matter how I say it, and there are no two maids around me to serve, but some identities do not match.
As for their origins, Yun Tianye was not in a hurry to ask. During the day, he was busy with the construction of Zhuangzi, and at night, he worked hard to cultivate and improve his strength. Everything is false, only strength is real!
Day after day, it has been half a year since Yun Tianye came to Yangzhou in a blink of an eye. There were also a few people who didn't know whether they were alive or dead to rob on the way, but they were all defeated by the three guards invited by Yun Tianye, and finally became one of the many slaves in Yunjiazhuang. And the Green Wolf Gang has not heard from them since Hua Wuchang, as if they were afraid of Yun Tianye.
Yunjiazhuang has changed dramatically, almost every day, and the population has begun to skyrocket slightly, exceeding five hundred. Except for some of the slaves who were bought back by the gold coins of Yuntian Wildflower, most of them were farmers who came here to rent land.
Because Yunjiazhuang is different from other places, there is not only a cheaper land rent here in Yunjiazhuang than other places, but also the owner here is kind and has good security. The road is not forgotten, the night is not closed, more and more people know that Yunjiazhuang is a paradise in Yangzhou City.
At first, Yun Tianye was still worried about the population problem, and from time to time asked Laifu to go to Renshi to buy labor, but as the population who had come to Yunjiazhuang spread by word of mouth, people gradually began to take the initiative to migrate to Yunjiazhuang.
As a result, Yunjiazhuang has expanded again and again, and in just half a year, Yunjiazhuang has more than doubled.
Originally, it was just an inconspicuous small manor, but because the speed of expansion was too fast, it naturally fell into the eyes of those who cared.
