Chapter 49: New Cuisine

The biggest difference between slaves and commoners is divided into material and spiritual aspects, in the material aspect slaves have nothing private, everything belongs to the slave owner, including a single hair on the body.

In the spiritual aspect, there is no freedom, there is no respect, and it is not even as good as a pack ox.

There are still people who worry about putting some hay or something to feed the pack oxen, and they only spit on and turn a blind eye to the slaves.

All the slave owners could think of was oppression, wishing they didn't have to consume anything, and they could work day and night without rest.

Meron is a person with a new human soul, and naturally he will not be like those slave owners, in addition to the initial promises, he also listed a series of preferential policies.

The slaves in the territory worked for the same time as the commoners, leaving early and returning late, and each person could receive animal skin clothes for a certain period of time, and the clothes were of the same size as normal, not the kind of short skirts.

The biggest reaction of the slaves was that the slaves could also eat three meals a day, and they were full, and they would get a certain amount of brown bread at noon if they performed well.

This treatment has gone a lot beyond the normal range, in the past, slaves only had one meal a day, and they basically couldn't eat enough, most of them were wild vegetables or something, as for black bread, civilians in ordinary territories did not have this treatment.

Slaves can go to the wasteland on their own, and the seed castle will provide it, and the harvest can be kept by themselves.

It's very little, but this definitely belongs to the generosity of the viscount, you must know that the taxes of normal civilians are this amount, and the territory is not professionally raised.

Meron promoted the marriage policy, which was also popularized among slaves.

Like commoners, slaves were free to fall in love and marry by registering with the authorities, which meant being witnessed and protected by their territory.

Pregnant women can reduce their workload appropriately, return home after four months to give birth, and have three months of leave after giving birth.

This rule is definitely a lifesaver for female slaves, it turns out that in that harsh environment, once a female slave is pregnant, it is basically equivalent to half a foot into the ghost gate......

Some of these girls are just copying the things of the previous world, but as soon as the regulations came out, the slaves all cried excitedly, especially those who had been hurt in some way, and they couldn't cry for a long time.

The next day, before Meron could wake up, he was woken up by a loud shout.

"Thank you, Lord Viscount!"

"Thank you Lord Viscount for your generosity, you are the god of happiness in our hearts!"

"Thank you, Lord Viscount, in the future, I will be a person of Lord Viscount in life, and I will be a ghost of Lord Viscount in death!"

"The light of Lord Viscount will always shine on us, and I swear that not only me, but my children and grandchildren will remember Lord Viscount for generations to come."

Meron, who was feeling very enjoyed, suddenly shivered all over his body, what is life is my person, death is my ghost, you are obviously a big man, okay.

And that, you can forget it, and you will also worry about your children and grandchildren for generations......

Meron hurriedly jumped out of the warm bed, and it took a lot of effort to stabilize the mood of the slaves and send them away, and let them go on, and the devil knows what else to say.

Watching the slaves leave happily, Meron secretly touched the cold sweat on his forehead, and suddenly a yin and yang strange voice remembered behind him, which startled Meron.

"Thank you, Lord Viscount, please feel free to summon me whenever Lord Viscount has needs."

Seeing Meron turn around, Yalina also threw a wink at Meron, which scared Meron again!

If it were usually Yalina's words, Meron could pull her mouth behind her ears with joy, but now......

This is an imitation of the female slave who has a very good posture just now, with a vivid look and a little more straightforwardness.

Just now it was heart-pounding, now it's creepy.

"Don't make fun of me, you should know what slaves live in other territories, and I have so many new regulations, those slaves are grateful, and it is normal for them to say nothing for a while, which is understandable."

Nine out of nine of these words are true, these slaves are indeed so excited that they can't choose to speak, but although the female slave just now is not as exaggerated as Yalina, she definitely has a different meaning, that little watery eyes.

"Hmph, of course I understand, don't think that you can hide that dirty mind by doing something good." Yalina didn't answer Meron's words directly, and muttered quietly, but the muttering didn't seem to be small.

As a former nobleman, Yalina is very clear about some of the nobles' deeds.

On the surface, the aristocracy will not be like a slave, but in private everyone understands.

Meron is not ignorant, in his memory, there is a relationship between the nobles and the Bantra, and he has sent a few very good female slaves, but he was rewarded by the Bent to his bachelors as wives, and it seems that O'Neid is one of them.

Fortunately, Yalina did not delve into this aspect, and she also knew what the new regulations meant for slaves, and it was absolutely normal for female slaves to have some thoughts that were excited.

The territory suddenly increased by more than 300 people, and it was obviously much more lively than before.

The slaves, like the commoners, were mainly responsible for clearing the land, but now they did not grow corn, but a vegetable.

This dish is one of the main foods of the common people in autumn, similar to the mustard greens of the previous world, and generally only takes about five months from planting to harvesting.

Of course, Meron was not fooling around when he opened up the wasteland, after reclaiming a certain area of land, there would be a certain range of grassland around, and he didn't want to see the loess in the whole territory when the wind blew.

"Lord Viscount, we found this kind of thing in the south of the silver mine, and we think it is the same as the locust you mentioned, so we hurried back to report it." Jamie rode into the castle in a panic and saluted Meron and took out a cage woven of grass.

The cage is not large, about the size of a small birdcage, and inside are two black locusts.

I sighed in my heart, what should have come is still here.

This locust is similar to what Koda described, but there are some differences in size, not exaggerated to the size of a palm, about ten centimeters, but it also belongs to the giant level.

"Are there many locusts?"

After a moment's thought, Meron asked.

"It's not too much, and it's only found in the south of the racecourse, and not anywhere else." Jamie replied.

Now the horse farm is not the one on the side of Edinburgh, but has been transferred to the silver mines.

This was done as a cover for the mining of silver mines, and secondly, the grass there was relatively fertile, which is why others did not know that Meron had horses for so long.

"Let's go, let's see!"

Meron plans to go and see for himself if it is really an army of locusts that will attack, if he can come up with a certain way to deal with it.

There was something on his mind, plus Jamie took the horse, and it only took about half a day to get to the racecourse, but by this time it was already dark.

As soon as he walked into the camp, Meron smelled a scent.

"What does it smell like?" Meron asked Jamie beside him, tilting his head to the side.

Jamie scratched his head and was also a little puzzled: "Back to Lord Viscount, this seems to be a meaty aroma, but it is definitely not the meat of the prey." ”

"Oh, I've seen Lord Viscount! This is a new dish invented by Bai Deng, and although it is very troublesome to eat, it tastes very good, almost like meat. Leng Ci just came out and saluted Meron and said excitedly.
