Chapter 053: Lords and Slaves

"Then tell me why the hired people need to spend five times more food than the coolies?" Bing Lian moved her gaze back and looked at Jiao Ming, as if she was really the boss of a subordinate of the examination school. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

Jiao Ming patted his head and easily figured out the key: "The coolie dies if he doesn't do it, and the people can do it or not, probably only by using violence can the difference between the two be smoothed out." Jiao Ming remembered that Binglian didn't like the violent coercion of the people last night, obviously his father had done this.

"Very incisive summary!" Bing Lian's eyes flashed, and she appreciated Jiao Ming's answer: "In this case, do you still insist on hiring the people?" or is there any other way. Incidentally, after the autumn harvest, there will be a price drop for slaves, and most of the other noble estates in Crocodile Territory will sell less robust slaves at low prices to save them winter rations, and I'm ready to get my hands on one in preparation for next year's construction. ”

This is a very reasonable plan, Jiao Ming has no reason to refute it at all, but this huge difference from the earth makes Jiao Ming extremely uncomfortable, Jiao Ming does not like the wooden spoon and the old door panel groveling and the numb eyes of other coolies, and does not like slavery.

"I reserve my opinion about employing the lords, give me a night to think about it. Jiao Ming reluctantly chose a delaying tactic.

"Then let's talk about the training of the little ones. When Binglian was talking about training, she winked at Jiao Ming, implying that the meaning was obvious.

"What's there to discuss about this, I see the little guy having a lot of fun. ”

"It's just because I'm so happy, the progress of 'training' is a bit slow!" Binglian explained, her eyes falling on Shining Scales: "Especially Shining Scales and Little Warren, the mud and water fight in the afternoon was provoked by the two of them. ”

Hearing his name being mentioned, Shining Scale immediately raised his head and argued, "Little Warren threw me first!"

"Do your math. Binglian said with a smile, completely like an eldest sister supervising her sister's homework.

"I kind of get it. Jiao Ming nodded, thinking back to the school's sports meeting when he was on Earth, and thought about it: "It should be possible to have a score system." ”

"Tell me about it. Binglian probably had an idea when she heard the word 'score', but she still waited for Jiao Ming's detailed explanation with an inquiring gaze.

"Divide the little ones into teams of five or six people, compete which team carries more rocks or sand, and set some rewards. Jiao Ming completely copied the experience of the school sports meeting and took advantage of the children's competitiveness.

After hearing this, Binglian's eyes lit up, and she said with some worry after a moment: "Will it cause more confrontation, I don't want my subordinates to fight among themselves in the future." ”

"It's also very simple, the composition of the team is not fixed, and you can even arrange the sparkling scales and that little Warren together, and set a winning reward that is enough for them to let go of their contradictions. ”

Binglian clapped her hands and said, "It's a good idea! Then he frowned again: "But we don't have any good rewards except food." ”

Jiao Ming smiled slightly, stretched out his finger and clicked on the piece of paper that Shining Scale was fighting with: "The last group adds some punishments, and the effect is similar." ”

Binglian immediately smiled like a fox: "You are also very good at pitting people." ”

"That's the biggest compliment to me. ”

......

There was nothing to discuss, Jiao Ming immersed himself in sketching the new house, while Binglian continued to study the magic book on the spell of turning mud into stone. Shining Scales grabbed his hair with a sad face, gritted his teeth at the arithmetic problems on the paper, and Xiao Shi pointed out a few words from time to time on the side.

There was a rare silence in the study.

Jiao Ming's design for the new house included a little knowledge of the world's largest livestock farms, with the main goal of being clean and hygienic and easy to clean up the living quarters of the animals. The ground floor is divided into living quarters for cattle, storage for cow dung, and a canteen for coolies. The area of the second and third floors has been greatly reduced, only used as a sleeping place for coolies, and it is also a large shop design, which can accommodate more people.

Considering that he is not an architecture major, Jiao Ming has increased the cross-sectional area in line with the principle of safety first in the size of beams and columns. After the sketch was drawn, I wanted to draw another formal blueprint, and then secretly scolded myself for my inertial thinking, no matter what drawing was drawn, only I could understand it, and I wasted the idle energy of the 'blueprint'.

At this time, Shining Scale finally finished those addition and subtraction, and handed the paper to Jiao Ming tremblingly, looking at Jiao Ming pitifully with big teary eyes.

Jiao Ming quickly checked the calculations, and was surprised to find that they were all correct, which was thousands of miles different from Shining Scale's performance in class in the morning, even with the help of Xiao Shi, it shouldn't be like this.

poked Binglian, who was reading a book, and handed over the paper. After Binglian glanced at it, she just smiled slightly, "There's nothing strange about it." Shining scales just don't like to learn, not stupid. ”

This kind of crime, which is a heinous crime in the eyes of the earth, is just a 'just' evaluation here, and Jiao Ming only feels that it is an eye-opener. Then why did you study so obediently tonight? Jiao Ming secretly wondered, but Flashing Scales was beside him, so it was not good to ask it so bluntly. After thinking about it for a while, I thought of a possible answer, when children are treated specially, they will naturally become unconsciously serious, as if no matter how good the grades are, the elementary school students will suddenly be told to meet their parents, and they will feel uneasy.

The problem of Flashscale's math score was successfully solved, and after Jiao Ming encouraged her a few words, he let her go. Then he made some modifications and additions to his house sketch, Yu Guang saw that Xiao Shi began to doze off, and felt that the improvement of this drawing did not need to be in a hurry, and said to Binglian: "The main body of the drawing has been drawn, or I will work overtime here tonight." ”

Binglian agreed, and after extinguishing the magic lamp, she sent Jiao Ming and Xiaoshi back to the room, and reminded her before leaving: "Don't forget the matter of hiring people, I look forward to being persuaded by you." ”

"I won't let your expectations be disappointed!" how could Jiao Ming admit it, naturally he made a big promise, and as for the result, I will talk about it later.

There were only two people left in the room again, Jiao Ming and Xiao Shi were left, Jiao Ming thought about Xiao Shi's magical talent, and said: "You probably know the situation of the crocodile collar, there is no money for you to go to the south to study in a magic school. So you're on our own, do you have any confidence? I'm very optimistic about the animals that are human. ”

"Don't worry! ”

"Is there a direction for the next step?" Jiao Ming was very satisfied with Xiao Shi's self-confidence.

"Of course, but keep it secret, you just wait for the surprise!"

Jiao Ming grabbed Xiaoshi's little head and kissed it on the forehead. "Then I'm relieved. "Xiao Shi lives under the protection of Jiao Ming, naturally there is no problem, but in such a world, Jiao Ming does not dare to guarantee that he will not have accidents, so Xiao Shi becoming a capable talent is the core guarantee.

After kissing, Xiao Shi pretentiously wiped his forehead with Jiao Ming's cloth clothes, Jiao Ming just smiled, if Xiao Shi really disliked himself, he would not let himself kiss at all, and he would not still lie in his arms.

"Mom said that men's saliva is stinky, and you must get my consent before kissing me in the future!

Jiao Ming laughed, didn't answer such a childish question, turned over and lay on the bed and said, "Take me as your experimental specimen, and toss it as much as you want." I'm waiting for your surprise. ”
