This time, Wang Xiaode is ready to reform the slavery system in the territory when there are not many slaves. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

"I know that some of you were defeated, some were betrayed by your family, some had to be slaves in order to survive, and even some of you had parents who were slaves and had no choice. I know what you wear, what you eat, and what you do every day. Wang Xiaode stopped talking and looked at them.

After a while, he said, "Do you feel like you have no hope for the future?" No, no, no, you may have had no hope before, but in the future, starting today, you have hope. This time, many guys with gloomy faces also raised their heads and looked at Wang Xiaode, they needed hope so much. And the hope given by the lord is obviously more real and attractive than that given by the gods.

"But there is one thing I want you to remember, who gave you hope, and who you should be loyal to in the future!" Hearing this, some of the slaves fell to their knees and expressed their loyalty in their own way.

"Today I am going to announce the slavery system of my Ronal, the grading system. I will divide you into different tiers, depending on how much you contribute to the territory. Slaves are divided into five levels, and slaves are divided into three levels" Then Wang Xiaode explained in detail the difference between fifth-level slaves and third-level slaves.

The lowest fifth-level slave has no rights, does the most tiring and dirtiest work, eats the worst and least things, and the master decides whether it is good or bad, and the rest time depends on the master's wishes, and even the manager can execute and buy and sell at will. As a general rule, the daily rest period will not exceed 4 hours. There are not enough clothes to live in a collective fence. He is shackled.

Fourth class slave: On the basis of the fifth level slave, life is guaranteed, and the rest time is stable at 4-5 hours. It is no longer up to the manager to buy and sell at will, it must be decided by the head of the house. But the children born are fifth-class, and they can be allowed to stay by their side for half a year. Thereafter, a special meeting will be arranged once a year. Every year there will be a set of clothes that are enough to keep out the cold, and you can change into light shackles.

Third Class Slaves: On the basis of the fourth class slaves, they enjoyed two full meals a day, and one real meat dish per month. Fourth-class children, see each other once every six months. Rest time is 6-7 hours. Separate beds.

Second-class slaves: on the basis of the third-class, three meals a day, meat dishes once a day, 8-9 hours of rest a day, children of the third class, once every three months. Remove the shackles.

Slaves of the first class: on the basis of the second class, one meat dish for five days, children of the second class, and a rest period of 10-11 hours. One silver coin per year. That is, independent property, able to redeem oneself at a later date. However, it is simply impossible for a person to redeem himself with his salary.

Originally, when they heard what Wang Xiaode said about the fifth and fourth class, many people showed disappointed looks. But in the third class, there is a bed to sleep in, enough food to eat, enough rest time every day, and even meat. Many slaves began to get excited, and when they heard the second and first, many of them had already kowtowed one after another.

But Wang Xiaode's last sentence made some people cry.

"If you make meritorious deeds, I will make you my soldiers, or restore your free body. Even if they have no meritorious service, every year I will pick out the better ones from the first class and restore their own identity. "Wang Xiaode: This is a bombshell, which directly broke down the psychological defense line of many people.

But Wang Xiaode's words are far from over: "If someone has the opportunity to regain his freedom but is willing to give up, he will become my domestic servant, a soldier in the territory, and even an official." And whoever does something for the benefit of the realm of a freeman will receive the surname I bestow upon him."

This sentence directly made the scene gradually quiet, and then dead silence. In the end, James stood up and shouted, "If you dare not die for the lord, long live the lord, long live, long live, long live" followed by a burst of hoorays, and even the soldiers and peasants around him joined in. There is no long live in this world, and it can only be a rule for the emperor.

And the surname is a sign of the descendants of the nobility, although the knight lord is not officially noble, but in this territory is the ruler, can have a surname in a place, which can make any commoner excited.

Later on, it would be more difficult to become Ronal's domestic servant as a commoner than a slave.

After Wang Xiaode established the slave rank and promotion system, he established a military system, a domestic servant and a consular system.

The territory establishes a three-level military system of the team, with five people as a team, and a team commander is established; Ten people are a group, and a gang leader is established. Three groups are a team with a team leader. In view of the current situation, a regular soldier commander and militia captain should be set up first. and three gang commanders. After that, they will take turns to train every day. Walkthrough once a month.

The consulate will be moved out of the lord's family and a separate wooden house will be built, and the administrators will work in the consulate in the future. All the lords are subject to the orders of the consulate in peacetime, and the legislature, army, and war are the exclusive power of the lord. There can be a vigilante militia under the lord's house that is no more than two floors above the lord's army.

There are no such divisions under the general knight domain, that is, the lord leads a group of soldiers to manage a group of peasants. But Wang Xiaode's goal is different, Wang Xiaode wants to let the Chinese bloodline spread to another world, and reshape the heavenly court with the help of other worldly resources.

And then there is the matter of the old Jacks, who used his wooden house as a temporary consulate, and Wang Xiaode appointed him as the governor of the consulate. An empty courtyard was selected next to it as a barracks.

While the whole Lord's Palace was in turmoil for a major reform, the people of the Baron's Court asked the old Baron to visit Ronal.

Although the old baron could not issue an administrative order to Ronald when Wang Xiaode was alive, it was a subordinate title after all, so in the eyes of the subordinates, it was not inappropriate for the baron to use the word "requirement" for the knights.

"The Baron is coming to Ronard?" Wang Xiaode felt very novel about this request. Generally there is nothing big or special. Only knight lords have ever visited the baron, and it was the first time I heard that the baron was going to visit the knights' lords.

After thinking about it, there shouldn't be much of a problem with what he did in the other world, although the territory construction exceeded the general momentum, but it didn't violate any taboos. And the more serious thing is the altar, but if anything is really discovered, it should not be the baron, but the temple.

Could it be that your eyes are hot and you want to get a piece of the pie?

If that's too speechless, the cost of just asking him to send someone to work should be very good.

After thinking about it, I didn't come up with anything, so I just met and talked.

"You go and tell the other party, please help me convey my respect to the baron, it is the honor of the Ronald to be able to welcome Baron Donaldson, I just don't know when the Baron will arrive, I can prepare." Wang Xiaode said to Old Jack.

Old Jack went to pass the word after answering, and Old Jack felt that he still had to take care of this kind of thing himself to rest assured.

Looking at Old Jack's figure, Wang Xiaode was thinking that when he became a baron in the future, it would be time for Old Jack to rest, and now there is no suitable candidate to use it first.

After a period of deliberation between the two subordinates, Baron Donaldson will come to Ronald in the morning of the fifth day.

Five days later, Ronal took the outer forest border

"Stomping" There was a sound of horses' hooves, first dusty, then a group of black spots, and then more than ten light cavalry came out. Behind the cavalry was a horse-drawn carriage bearing the Donaldsons' distinctive insignia. Finally, there were dozens of soldiers.

This is the general specification of the baron's travel, both to deter the knights below, but also not to make the lords below too repulsive.

Although Wang Xiaode didn't take these shocks in his eyes, he also had a little understanding of the baron's power. Under the observation of Wang Xiaode's yin and yang eyes, it can be seen that there are at least 7 professionals here, judging from their outfits and the fighting light that emerges from their bodies, it should be two swordsmen as cavalry, and five fighters among the infantry.

This should only be the power of less than two levels of barony, which means that a barony has at least 40 professions. This does not include one of the mage's apprentices offered by the Barony.

As the convoy approached, the cavalry slowed down and lined up on either side, and when the carriage reached the middle, an old baron dressed in fine clothes took a young girl's arm and walked down.

"Welcome to Ronald, Baron Donaldson!" Wang Xiaode stepped forward and saluted. Although I am a little familiar with each other, it is not yet the level of intimacy. Besides, in public, you have to give the other party some face.

"Okay, Lord Ronal, you are the lord here, and I am a guest here, so it's up to you to arrange it. Oh, this is my daughter Catherine, born to the third lady, and I love her, so I'll take her to see it today. The old baron said kindly.

"Welcome, Miss Catherine, here, please." As he spoke, he led the group into the forest path, and the forest at this time, after being nourished by Wang Xiaode's spiritual liquid, already had a bit of the shape of the forest. And this passage, if it weren't for his own people or Wang Xiaode's intention to open part of the formation, it would be difficult for outsiders to reach the territory by walking.

At this time, Wang Xiaode felt very strange in his heart, who would take the initiative to tell the other party when his daughter met with outsiders for the first time that it was his concubine's.

However, although Catherine is well dressed, she looks like she doesn't dare to show her atmosphere, which is very worthy of her status as a concubine.

When Wang Xiaode accompanied the baron on a walk in the territory and walked towards his cabin, Baron Donaldson intentionally or unintentionally brought the topic to the recent new batch of knights, which are knights who are knights who have been rewarded for meritorious service, not purchased with money, so the baron has administrative jurisdiction over them. Among them, only two of the barons came back from the battlefield, and the others were meritorious soldiers from all corners.

However, with so many Knight Lords, even the Baron felt a little tricky, especially since there would be a new Baron a little further away. It is said that he was originally the second son of a viscount family, which made the baron feel some pressure.
