Chapter 059: Change
You can go a week without food, but you can't go a week without water. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
Wang Hao ordered his people to loosen the ropes of the captives, but none of them dared to resist.
Because they don't know if the people around them will be of the same mind as them when they resist.
"You are all defeated and captured by us, and if you want to be free, you will have to be redeemed by your people, but before your people come, you will eat my food, drink my water, and sleep in my land. Therefore you have to pay for what you have eaten. So, if you don't want to go hungry at noon this day, you'll have to work for me this morning. Otherwise, I won't give you anything to eat. Wang Hao stood in front of them and said with his hands behind his back.
"What will you give us to eat? If we were fed bark and grass roots, we would rather starve to death. Liu Xiong said in a dry voice. If he hadn't drunk a basin of water just now, his throat would be so dry that he wouldn't even be able to make a sound.
"I'm going to give you fish, the same boiled fish I ate last night." Wang Hao touched his nose and said. Now, few people in the village like to eat boiled fish. Boiling and boiling still tastes like that. Many strong archers like to run to hunt a prey when it is almost dark, hand over some of it to the village, use it to make bacon when it snows, and then leave two legs for themselves and give them to the people who specialize in cooking rice to help them deal with it.
However, the boiled fish that Wang Hao and his people were tired of eating in their mouths became the only supreme delicacy in the world in front of the people of Liu Village.
Liu Xiong's eyes lit up, and he asked Wang Hao again in disbelief, and after getting a definite answer, they quickly agreed with Wang Hao's practice of exchanging labor for food.
The captives were divided into nine groups of six men each, all numbered in numerical order. Wang Hao told them to supervise each other, and if one of the six of them was found, he had escaped or resisted. Then the other five will be punished.
Ignoring their sneering expressions, Wang Hao knew that he had planted the seeds of mutual suspicion.
Today, their task is mainly to build the wooden fence of the village. Each group of people was assigned a certain distance. Wang Hao told them that the first to complete the task will have two percent more food than others, and the last team to complete the task will only have half of the food of others.
In each group, two clansmen were assigned to supervise them. One with a bow and the other with a sword. Under the attack from far and near, even if the people of Liu Village resisted, they could drag it until the clansmen reacted.
After arranging the prisoners, Wang Erniu ran over with a bowl of giant bear meat, and after handing over the giant bear meat to Wang Hao, she pouted and said: "Brother, brother, the stupid chicken has grown up, and a stupid chicken jumped out of the fence and escaped this morning." ”
Since Wang Hao told the clansmen that they could raise the little stupid chickens and eat them again, whenever the clansmen encountered the nest of the stupid chickens outside, they would try their best to catch them alive if there were little stupid chickens.
Wang Erniu has always been responsible for domesticating these stupid chickens, so Wang Hao specially circled a piece of land for her in the village and fenced it off to raise stupid chickens.
Wang Hao touched Wang Erniu's head and followed him to see the stupid chicken. Speaking of which, I have been busy with the war during this time, and I haven't been to the stupid chicken breeding fence for several days.
When he arrived at the fence, Wang Hao found that the clansmen had caught a lot of stupid chicken cubs during this time, and there were almost hundreds of stupid chickens in the small fence. Six of the larger ones stand out inside.
Wang Hao asked Erniu to run and catch them one by one, these stupid chickens are more wary of humans, and now in the village, only Erniu can approach them.
After they were caught, Wang Hao used the Haotian Sword to cut off the feathers on their wings in turn. After finishing this, Wang Hao smiled and said: "Okay, now they won't be able to fly, in the future, you remember, when they are long enough to fly, cut off their wings, so that you are not afraid of them escaping." ”
Wang Erniu agreed to Wang Hao's words while picking up the corpses of a few little stupid chickens from the fence. Pouting, he unhappily dug a pit and buried it.
"What's the pout?" Wang Hao asked with a smile.
"Lately, the chicks have been dying all the time, and I don't know why, and I'm not happy to see the chicks die." Wang Erniu said aggrievedly.
Wang Hao picked up a dead chick next to him, put it in his hand and looked at it, and found that he was not infected, but the chicken's neck was broken, and it seemed that he should have been injured to death.
I picked up a few more and found that all of them had broken necks.
Standing outside the fence and watching for a while, Wang Hao finally found the reason. It turned out that the first batch of clumsy chickens had grown up, and one of them had awakened the concept of territory.
Whenever a chick comes close to it, it pecks at the chicken's neck.
When Wang Hao told Wang Erniu about this, Erniu covered her mouth and said, "Ah! These big stupid chickens are so bad, I'm going to get rid of them! ”
However, Wang Hao stopped her and told her that it was the nature of a stupid chicken. This matter is also easy to solve. It would be nice to build a few more fences, one fence for the little stupid chickens that have just come out of the shell, and one fence for the bigger stupid chickens. After a while, when the stupid chicken matures, you can also build another fence to raise stupid chickens that can lay eggs.
This can not only prevent the big clumsy chickens from bullying the small ones, but also feed the big chickens and small chickens with coarse grass and tender grass respectively, so that the clumsy chickens can grow faster.
After listening to Wang Hao's suggestion, Wang Erniu jumped up happily, and he told Wang Hao that in the future, she would raise a lot of stupid chickens, so that all the clansmen would have eggs to eat every day.
After solving Wang Erniu's matter, Wang Hao had time to check the progress of the wooden fence.
Under the stimulation of food and Wang Hao's discord, those captives were more obedient than Wang Hao imagined. Whether they were beaten yesterday or not, they all **** their shoulders and sweat.
Looking at their progress, Wang Hao estimated the time, and estimated that by the afternoon, this circular wooden wall would be completed.
Looking at the wood that was about to enclose most of the village, Wang Hao could already imagine that when an arrow tower was built inside the wall every ten or so steps that could carry three or four people at the same time, the village would probably become a war fortress. Unless a second-level creature passes by, it will be difficult for either humans or beasts to break through the village.
For the next six days. Everything is developing as Wang Hao planned.
In the afternoon, the wooden wall was completed. Wang Hao personally picked up a piece of wood and slammed it against the wooden wall. As a result, because the entire wooden wall was connected by strong vines, Wang Hao's power was dispersed to all the wood, and the entire wooden wall stood still.
The next day, half of the thirty-two arrow towers that Wang Hao expected were completed. However, the two gates directly north and south of the village have been completed.
After a few hard knocks with a hammer, Wang Hao found that unless his strength was greater than that of a running rhinoceros, it was impossible to destroy the wooden door.
By the third day, all the towers had been completed, and a dozen thatched huts had been erected outside the wooden walls, where the captives would sleep at night.
In the end, most of the seriously wounded captives did not survive the first three days, and in the end only four remained undead, and their injuries were gradually improving.
And on this day, two captives fought. The reason was that while working, one of the captives accidentally called out the name of another person, and as a result, both of them received five lashes for shouting their names.
As a result, during the meal, the person whose name was called 'accidentally' knocked over the food of the person whose name was called. Then the two fought.
Later, they thought that Wang Hao would give them a very serious punishment, but Wang Hao just scolded them with thunder and rain.
On the fourth day, a person from Liu Village secretly reported to Wang Hao, saying that there was a person who missed his mother-in-law and wanted to instigate everyone to run away at night, but he felt that the food in his village was not delicious, so he did not agree.
Wang Hao rewarded him with a pair of straw sandals and an animal skin in public. Then he beat the prisoner who wanted to be a mother-in-law in public, and fined him a day's rations.
On the fifth day, Wang Hao asked the five tribesmen to take the captives to the salt lake to transport the salt stones, and told them when they set off that as long as the salt stones could be transported safely to the village and returned, each of them would be rewarded with a pair of straw sandals.
And the tool they transported was the wheelbarrow made by Wang Hao with the system during this time.
On that day, with only five people in the care, only three people ran away, one for the man who missed his mother-in-law, and two for him who had a better relationship. And Liu Xiong did not run away.
On the sixth day, everyone who came back began to have enough food. But correspondingly, the work they need to do has also increased.
Digging earth and mud bricks, and dividing people to pick up the iron ore that was exposed on the ground at the old site of Shicun are all jobs that require strength.
When it was night, Wang Hao looked at the twenty truckloads of iron ore in front of him, and his happy eyes narrowed.
Finally, there is iron to use again.
