Next, Black Bear introduced Zhao Hongyu to the white captain of the escort team, as well as the head maid of the black maid and others.

In front of Zhao Hongyu, these people all showed their respect and humility.

Because they knew that the young man they had seen was even higher than their own master of Mohican.

He is the true master of the land and has supreme rights.

There were a lot of black slaves and men working around, some were resting on the lawn, some were repairing wooden fences, some were pruning flowers and branches, and everything seemed so peaceful.

These were the best of the black slaves, so they could enter the manor and live with their masters.

And after entering the manor, the quality of life must be different from that of other black slaves.

And the black slaves outside were different, they lived on the manor without shackles and shackles. Compared with other black slaves, they had a relatively high status.

In addition, the black bear also assigned them a black woman as a wife.

It is unthinkable that a slave has a wife.

But the black bear did just that, and the results were pretty good.

At the very least, the black slaves on the manor were much more loyal to him than they were to work in the fields outside.

At this moment, a white escort rode to the gate of the manor from the gravel road leading to the field, and the black butler greeted him and the two talked a few words.

In a short time, a horse-drawn carriage came from the end of the road.

Zhao Hongyu looked over, as if the carriage was carrying several black slaves.

The black slaves staggered out of the carriage and were escorted by Obama, the black butler, and white guards to a large wooden warehouse nearby.

"What's going on?"

Zhao Hongyu asked the black bear a little strangely.

After the black bear glanced at it, he turned his head to Zhao Hongyu and said, "It is estimated that those black slaves are making trouble, or they are running away or something." I'm pretty lenient about the management of black slaves here, but there are always some people who can't figure it out and are looking for trouble. ”

After Zhao Hongyu heard this, he just sighed in his heart. I don't want to ask.

He knew that oppression was inevitable in any era, and that it was inevitable in his empire.

However, his heart will not be very comfortable after all.

"Don't worry about that, Obama will take care of it." , Black Bear didn't notice that his son-in-law was a little depressed now, but he was in a good mood.

A few black slaves carried a few tables from the room behind them to the courtyard and set them up, and then spread a white tablecloth.

Cutlery and wine glasses were placed on the table.

"These black slaves are all trained by the white captain of the guard. Of course, your Legion Commander has some ideas. When he saw that his son-in-law was very interested in these black slaves, the black bear opened his mouth to speak.

"I said how do they know the rules so well, it turns out that they have been trained." , Zhao Hongyu was a little surprised.

The black bear smiled and said, "That's for sure, how could they know so much if they weren't trained." ”

While the two were talking, there was the sound of a whip on a human body from the large white-painted warehouse, followed by a scream.

Zhao Hongyu knew that this was a lesson to the black slaves who were brought back.

The sound didn't last long before it stopped.

Then several white guards. In pairs, a dying black slave walked out of the warehouse.

Behind them, followed by the black butler named Obama.

They carried the tortured black slaves to a towering tree outside the manor. Then a couple of white guards got their hands dirty. Several black slaves were tied up and hung from tree trunks.

Zhao Hongyu saw clearly, after the black slaves were hanged, the housekeeper named Obama walked over and took the dagger of the white escort team, and cut the throats of the black slaves very quickly.

After all this has been done. And the crowd dispersed.

Several white guards mounted their horses and returned to the fields in the distance.

And the black housekeeper returned to Zhao Hongyu and them.

"Obama. What the hell did those guys do? It's nothing that you've executed a few people, but they've all been bought for silver after all. ”

The black bear didn't have much mood swings after a few dead slaves, but those slaves were bought back for money after all.

So, he needs to ask clearly.

And Zhao Hongyu, who was sitting on the side, although his face did not move, he sighed in his heart that his father-in-law had become a black-hearted manor owner.

You must know that those manor owners in the United States in the eighteenth century were so black-hearted.

It seems that his father-in-law has become like that.

"Sir, the slaves attacked one of the guards and killed him before trying to escape. Unfortunately, they ran away for three days and then they were caught, so I executed them. ”

Obama's answer made the corners of Zhao Hongyu's eyes twitch.

Black slaves?

Damn, you're black yourself, okay, how can you use that tone?

However, when Zhao Hongyu thought that there was such a kind of person in the future, he was relieved.

Yes, there was such a kind of person in Huaxia in later generations, after they went abroad to the island country, they would change the name of the island country, and then open their mouths and shut up to say that their compatriots were from that or something.

And the person who went to Europe said that the motherland was so bad and that it was not good, and he always wanted to become a Caucasian.

Such wonders are not only available in later generations, but also in this era.

Its representative is this butler Obama.

It is precisely when he thinks of these that Zhao Hongyu will be relieved.

It's wonderful, such a strange thing was actually encountered by myself.

However, Zhao Hongyu doesn't plan to do anything to this strange thing, after all, this strange housekeeper Obama does everything for his father-in-law, as well as for this manor and land, and also for the management of other black slaves.

Speaking of which, this guy is also out of loyalty.

"Oh, it turned out to be those people from three days ago, since it was them, they would have been executed." , the black bear said to Obama very indifferently after knowing the reason. "You go and wash up, Your Highness is going to have lunch with us today, and by the way, you can ask Miss and my wife to come out of the house too."

After the strange housekeeper Obama left, the black bear turned his head to look at Zhao Hongyu and asked seriously: "You said that if these black slaves are let into soldiers, can they be used?" I think that if these people are used well, they will still be very useful for the development of the empire. ”

To be honest, what the black bear said Zhao Hongyu didn't think about, but in the end it was denied by Zhao Hongyu.

First of all, the empire now has quite enough soldiers, so there is no need to use black slaves at all.

Besides, in the future, the territory will get bigger and bigger, and there will definitely be more and more black slaves.

For these people, they will definitely be enslaved in the future, and it is unlikely that they will be liberated for the time being.

At the same time give them weapons, it is very unsafe.

So Zhao Hongyu replied: "We have considered this problem, but it is not feasible. However, it is still possible to pick a few people to give them citizenship of the empire and let them set an example, which can give hope to the slaves and help them to stabilize. ”

The black bear nodded, not continuing on the subject.

He knew that it was better for him not to make up his mind about major national affairs, and his own ideas were not as good as his son-in-law's.

If you don't do it, you can make trouble for him.

The words just now were just his own words, and even he didn't take them seriously.

"Give those slaves some hope?"

However, when the black bear listened to Zhao Hongyu's words, he showed a strange expression.

Zhao Hongyu nodded: "Yes, I want to give the slaves a little hope." When they see hope, they will work hard, which is very helpful in stabilizing them from causing trouble. ”

For Zhao Hongyu, who came from later generations, he couldn't be clearer about these things.

"For example, we can give your butler Obama a citizenship, his wife and children have citizenship, and he is no longer a slave. His children can even grow up to be a minor civil servant in the empire, what do you think those slaves will think? ”

Zhao Hongyu looked at his father-in-law with a smile.

The black bear grew its mouth, and after a long time, he said, "I guess I'll be dumbfounded." ”

Zhao Hongyu nodded: "In addition to being dumbfounded, they will also see hope." As long as they work hard and don't mess around, they will have a free body and live as citizens of the empire. ”

Zhao Hongyu knew too well what hope meant to slaves.

He also knew what kind of excitement those slaves would be if he did this.

Especially when they see people who succeed and really become role models as citizens, what kind of impact will it bring to them.

Of course, Zhao Hongyu will not really restore the freedom of all slaves, strictly speaking, Zhao Hongyu is really fooling them.

Although it is very unethical.

"But don't get me wrong, father-in-law, I just plan to set a few examples in a few years to give those slaves hope. Essentially, I'm deceiving them. Then Zhao Hongyu told his father-in-law his plans, what would happen if he did this, and the most fundamental nature of this way.

After listening to Zhao Hongyu's story, the black bear felt that his brain was a little useless.

"Son-in-law, you can do this. I really can't figure out how your head grows, I can't think of such a way. The black bear said to Zhao Hongyu very sincerely, and at the same time congratulated himself and Zhao Hongyu to become in-laws.

"Dad, what do we have to eat at noon, I'm hungry now."

Emma and Sarah, along with her mother, and a dozen black slave maids, came over.

Before she could get closer, Emma screamed. (To be continued.) )
