The soldiers who supervised the work of the slaves were boiled over when they heard about their reward, and the recruits rushed to the forest fire to choose their favorite surname.

The slaves looked at this group of excited old men with resentment, and the hatred in their hearts would increase if these people who pressed on their heads were not happy.

Soon the recruits would choose their surnames, ask each other what the others had chosen, and when they met the same form, they would brag to each other and praise each other for their eyes.

Although the rewards of the veterans have not yet been issued, since the leader has already spoken, there is no possibility of taking it back, and the veterans are also very excited to think that they will soon have a short sword or dagger as the saying goes.

On this day, a relaxed atmosphere permeated the entire camp, and the soldiers even graciously added two more bowls of rice to the slaves' food.

The next day, Lin Huo sent six men in three directions to inform several other camps of the news.

East, Copper Mine.

Three days ago, Kong Yi, who had traveled hard, finally escorted the slaves here, and nearly ten slaves died along the way, and those who could get here alive were all in good physical fitness.

Kong Yi followed Wang Lang's instructions and set up the mining camp here in the baobab forest.

The reason why this place was chosen is that this large baobab forest not only provides an abundant source of water, but also the thick trunk can be used as a house with a hole in it, which greatly reduces the difficulty of building a camp.

In three days, Kong Yi commanded the slaves and dug twenty tree cave houses, which were of course not without slaves, after building the houses of Kong Yi and these nobles.

The miserable slaves had to dig their own cages.

More than forty slaves, wielding shovels and copper pickaxes, diligently dug deep pits.

Today, the pit has been dug nearly one meter deep and covers an area of more than 30 square meters.

More than forty slaves will be held in such a small space, so you can imagine how crowded it will be, and after crouching, people will be next to each other, like a large can of sardines.

"Boss, are we going to live here for a long time?" One of the team members asked.

"I think I'll stay here for a long time, and according to the leader's wishes, a village will be established here in the future, and I'll probably be in charge of it, so you must make this place a good one, not only for me, but also for you to live comfortably." Kong Yi leaned against a baobab tree and shook his head and said to the team.

"It's so remote that we don't even have fish but some meat and corn, if only there was a river." The other team member said with a sigh.

"Oh, isn't it? It's damn so hot, if this would be in the tribe, it would be comfortable to jump into the river, how comfortable. Thinking back to the tribe's river, the team was looking at ease.

"Don't complain, the leader attaches great importance to this matter, and must not make mistakes, if you do it well, the leader is satisfied with my performance, and I am satisfied with you." Kong Yi said slowly.

"Mr. Boss, this group of useless slaves, working so slowly, playing in a pit for so long, only digging so much, I can see that they have taught them a lesson."

"Forget it, there aren't many slaves allocated to us, and if they all die, we will have to do these jobs." Kong Yi said with a smile.

"It's still thoughtful."

Both teams are complimenting.

"I haven't even seen a big beast in this place for so long, so I caught some funny dragons in so many days, and it would be good to come and improve our food with a few beasts!" The team is complaining.

"Some of them are good to eat, if you want to eat, there are them above, if you have the ability to take them off, I will credit you." Kong Yi shook his head and said.

The team looked up at the baobab fruit on the treetops, sighed and said, "Boss, this trunk is bare, you can't climb it at all!" ”

"I'm afraid that if I can't go up, I'll stay honestly, so much nonsense, such a hot weather, it's better to sleep." Kong Yi said with squinted eyes.

At this time, another team member looked at the trunk, and a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, and said to Kong Yi: "General, I have a note that I can pick these fruits." ”

Kong Yi opened his eyes, looked at the team and said, "Oh! What way, let's talk about it. ”

The team was saying, "Boss, let's make a strong rope and tie the two ends together and put it on the trunk of the tree, and we will move it little by little to the treetops. ”

"It's kind of interesting, just idle and have nothing to do, this matter is left to you, and the credit for doing this is yours." Kong Yi said.

"Hehe, Mr. Hey, you can take a look, I'll help you pick this fruit."

As the team finished speaking, they hurriedly ran to the side and called a few soldiers and told them to collect wild grass and weave straw ropes.

After more than an hour, a thick rope was made.

The team ran over with the rope and said, "Finish the rope, I'll try it now." ”

Kong nodded and said, "Okay, then try this tree!" ”

The team was putting the rope around the trunk of the tree, took a deep breath, and lifted one foot to step on the trunk.

"Be careful, don't try it if it doesn't work, it's not a joke to fall so high." Kong Yi warned.

"Don't worry, put the total, no problem!"

After saying that, he stepped on the other foot as well.

Seeing that he had slid down from the tree again, the team was suddenly more confident, and moved the rope slowly upwards little by little.

Although the speed is not fast, everyone saw that this method could really climb trees, and their faces were full of anticipation.

After carefully climbing for more than ten minutes, I finally climbed to the canopy.

The team was grasping the branch nimbly, turning over and riding on the trunk, and at this time they were already sweating profusely due to fatigue and nervousness.

After resting for a while, he waved his hand to the ground and shouted, "Boss, you can continue to order on the ground, and I will pick the fruit now." ”

"Got it, be careful!" Kong Yi looked up and said.

The team nodded, carefully stood up on the branch, and plucked all the fruits they could.

Seeing the bunches of fruits fall to the ground, Kong Yi hurriedly asked people to collect them and pile them aside.

Seeing that they could all be picked up, the team was carefully climbing down from the tree.

Seeing him come down safely, Kong Yi patted him on the shoulder excitedly and said, "Shi Hu, it's good, this time you have made a meritorious service." ”
