Chapter 337: Slave Camp (3)

Da Yang has studied rebellion, but he has only learned, and he knows no more than Chen Yi how to do it. And when the flag officer of Leach refused the extra 10 snail shells he gave, Dayang became more and more hesitant.

Chen Yi sat in front of the fence like an old manor owner, drinking fragrant Sri Lankan black tea, eating walnut pie from the Lower East Side of New York, and watching Yun 13 parade among a group of bear-like strong men to choose.

It has to be said that the western continent is really a blessed land, abundant food so that slaves can eat enough, really make the Chinese with poor land feel jealous, to a certain extent, this place has superior conditions beyond the Americas - cowboys drive bison along the railroad all the way to New York, on the way to eat bison, even the energy of grazing is saved.

Of course, for slaves, don't fantasize about anything good in the food, but whether it's leftovers or a thick soup made from the cheapest sweet potato roots in the forest, you won't go hungry.

The slaves in the fence are not necessarily willing to be slaves, but are always willing to go out to work, because it is possible to eat better things when they go out, get rid of the abuse and forced expulsion of the officers in the camp, and get rid of cannon fodder, and maybe it is also a good opportunity to escape.

Two young men riding on sand beasts jumped off their mounts from a distance and walked to the slave camp, also pretending to be hired slaves.

They are all local knights, and they don't even have to pay a deposit when they are hired, and they don't have to go to the "window" next to them to pay for small sums of money, so they can observe Chen Yi and others on the side.

Among them, the beautiful boy is gearing up, almost with the intention of rushing up to a duel.

The bearded man calmed down, but he was also full of murderous intent, and said: "Their status in Xijiang Water Village is not low, and they must find a safe way." ”

"Attacking and killing them in the camp, does anyone dare to help the Jiangning people?"

"But they won't help you." The implication is that the bearded man is not sure of victory. The previous attack lost troops and lost generals, and the knights at the fighting skill level also suffered casualties, if they could bulldoze the Xijiang Water Village, someone would have done it a long time ago.

The beautiful boy's momentum weakened suddenly, and he said, "No wonder it's a slave camp......

"Shhhh......h ”

The gentlemen of Mara City, they don't care about the 14th Light Infantry Battalion, they care about Cardwell.

The beautiful boy snorted and said, "Cadwell who wants money." ”

"Without the position of the Great Sir hanging, he naturally only cares about money." The bearded man thought to himself, and did not say it, but said, "Let's wait for the slaves to come out, and then see the situation and decide." ”

After saying that, the two hired 4 slaves and left in a hurry.

Yin Mori Yong had noticed them a long time ago, and he had always maintained a fighting spirit in his hands, ready to attack at any time, and only at this moment that he saw them leave, he relaxed a little.

When you are in the field, you must have all kinds of precautions. The knights of the family who can be mixed in foreign countries, whether they return to their hometowns or go out, will have a lot of achievements, and the most important point is to be prepared.

"Do you know those two people?" Isamu Gin Mori asked Marduk as if bored.

"The nobles in the city, I don't know who they are."

Yinmori Yong smiled and asked, "There are a lot more slaves in the camp now, right?" ”

"It's more than 2,000, and it's ready to lose." Marduk smiled, those who understood understood, and those who didn't understand were treated as a shadow.

The 14th Light Infantry Battalion actually had more than 220,000 slaves, and with the accumulation of war slaves over the years, plus war slaves captured or bought for money, Lord Cardwell maintained at least 300,000 slaves. In this way, he was able to maintain good relations with some of his old customers and continue to make money during the Temple War, when not only the price of goods would rise, but also the price of slaves.

At this time, Yun Shi picked a good person, and when he finished, he reported: "500 slaves, my lord." ”

Yinsen walked over with a smile and looked at it with Chen Yi, mostly those who seemed to be honest or silent.

Chen Yi nodded, smiled and said, "It's like doing something...... Well, I took the people away, Da Yang, you stay and hand them over. ”

Judging from the needs of "honest" beliefs, it is not wrong to say something to evaluate, especially with the addition of the word "like", but if you can not say it, you will not say it, being a paladin is like being an official, the more careful you are, the more powerful you are. Of course, if this is the case, then the golden body is the most invincible.

They said they would go, but they put down more than 5,000 copper coins, and the flag bearer and Marduk were thrilled.

"They are not natives, they are hired slaves, and if we don't return them, we will have nothing to lose." Leach held his tongue in his hands. As Cardwell's subordinates, they certainly love money. But that liking must be built on a basis that doesn't harm Cardwell's interests.

Leach didn't dare to collect the money directly, but suggested: "Your Excellency Da Yang, or, I'll find another batch of slaves for you to choose?" ”

Dayang knew that the money was not used to buy slaves, but to be left for his public relations funds, and that it had to be spent.

So he thought desperately, and finally gritted his teeth and said, "Can I see your big camp master?" ”

"Sir Cardwell?" Leach looked greedily at the sack on the ground, thought about it for a while, and said, "Well, you have the qualifications. ”

If more than 500 snail shells are bought as slaves, Jazz can fall at least half, and it will be no problem to meet them.

Da Yang resolutely carried a 250-pound sack on his back, and after seeing Sir Cardwell, he said in a tactful but firm tone: "Sir, I want to talk to you alone." ”

No one knows what was talked about inside, anyway, Da Yang came out destitute and didn't even have the meager money to go home.

1,000 slaves, forming a long snake that snaking, all tied together by thick hemp rope, and several civilian petty officers armed with crossbows and spears on guard.

Chen Yi was half-lying on the carriage, regardless of the situation outside, until he came to the rubber forest, and then said, "Wait a minute." ”

Yun 13 hurriedly stood up and shouted, "Stop." ”

The slaves moved for a while, and slowly stopped, and they were in the field, but it was easy to make people have bad associations, and immediately someone shouted in the lingua franca or the Mara dialect: "Gather together, beware of crossbow arrows, beware of crossbow arrows." ”

Whether they were slaves or slaves in the past, they knew all kinds of ways to kill.

Chen Yi's eyelids didn't jump.

Not long after, Sun Ruihe jumped out of the forest, carrying two packs of glue on his back, afraid of having nearly a hundred catties, and waited for him to get into the carriage with great difficulty, and only then did he re-urge the beast.

"How?"

"It's a real rubber tree, I walked 4.3 kilometers, all rubber trees, but there are tens of thousands of hectares, and I have to make two more trips."

"How's the density?"

"There are very few miscellaneous plants, three or four hundred rubber trees per hectare, about 25 per acre." After Sun Ruihe came to the Western Continent, the first serious thing was to measure the rubber forest, how dare he not care.

There are about 500 rubber trees planted on the earth, and as many as 600 trees. The natural rubber trees of the western continent are much thicker than those of the Brazilian rubber trees on the planet, and are similarly so dense that the fΓ©i force required for the land is at least 1 times more than 1 time.

Chen Yi frowned and said, "When I go back, I will write a report, and I will show it to the experts." ”

Natural rubber tree tapping is not once or twice, but a regular behavior in the season, such a dense rubber forest may have a weak ability to produce rubber, then its value is low. Of course, even if it can only be cut a few times, the price of tens of thousands of acres of rubber forests is quite good.

"Yes."

"Let's go." Chen Yi waved his hand, and Sun Ruihe leaned on the carriage and slowly recuperated.

The slave procession began to set out again, and half a mile behind them, the sand beast followed slowly, occasionally stretching out its long forearms to pluck leaves from the trees to eat.

After a while, the sand beast also came to the rubber forest, and the bearded man snatched a few leaves from the sand beast's hand, and whispered, "Why are they so interested in this gum?" ”

"It is said that the people of Jiangning are good at making utensils, which is very useful."

"Useful?"

"Who knows."

"Is this a wasteland? Why don't we buy it. ”

"Gum can only be sold for a few bucks a year." The beautiful boy was a little reluctant to pay, and said: "In the senate, selling land is also a trouble. ”

The bearded man twitched his beard twice and said, "How about ...... Burned it? It's just that the forest is a little bigger......"

"Go back and ask, if it's really valuable, we will also make good things for Jiangning people." The beautiful boy said, patted the sand beast, and said, "Catch up." ”

Ahead.

The slaves crossed the river by boat, then changed into cars, and then went directly from the road to the Xijiang Water Village in the headquarters, and went through various cleaning and quarantine steps before being put into the camp. No one noticed that there were two noble knights pretending to be merchants behind them.

The quarantine work in Xijiang Shuizhai was carried out by Jin Mian, a doctor who had been abducted for a short time. This is a 40-year-old clinic doctor after the divorce, his wife took away the family's cash and the faΓ§ade of the clinic, Jin Mian was unwilling to start over, and came to the Western Continent under Xiao Zhu's flickering, and he was the only general practitioner and the only specialist here.

He took two natives by the way, although the working environment is worse than the clinic, but he enjoys the atmosphere of striving for progress here, and the occasional struggle for power and profit, in the eyes of the passerby, is more like a kind of competition like a student. On the other hand, Chen Yi tried his best to meet the material needs of the people in the Western Continent, and Wuliangye and Zhenpin Moutai were on the B-level supply list, and soon formed a relationship with Li Duo and other peers.

Two days later, the simple prison-like quarantine and purge ended. Slaves uniformly dressed in gray and bright yellow sè overalls began their hard work in the capital construction team. Except for the 500 slaves selected by Yun Thirteen, the remaining 500 people did not get along so well, some of them were alien slaves captured from distant countries, with tough expressions and full of Spartacus-like spirit of resistance.

More than 30 trainees of the capital construction group, including Shi Nengren, were all scattered to supervise the work. In Shi Nengren's own words: "I fantasized when I was in school, and later became a project supervisor, eating and drinking spicy food, who knew that now I was supervising people's lives."
