Chapter 2 One Hundred and Eight Mines
This old man in brocade clothes, named Bai Lingtian, is the owner of this Wushan mine, and also the emperor of this slave farm.
Su Shan looked at Bai Lingtian in the crowd, I don't know if it was an illusion, on him, he felt an extremely appalling sense of oppression, even stronger than the middle-aged scribe's body, seeing that Bai Lingtian seemed to have a good relationship with the middle-aged scribe, and I didn't know what the relationship between these two was.
"Haha...... , This group of slaves of the Heavenly Martial Kingdom would actually bother Brother Lin Ming to escort them personally, and I don't know where they got their blessings, haha......" Bai Lingtian laughed and hugged the middle-aged scribe's shoulders and said with a smile.
The middle-aged scribe Lin Ming chuckled, hiding the unhappiness in his eyes, and said: "This time I went out to conquer the Tianwu Kingdom, and the academy made a rare effort, but the Tianwu Kingdom was really weak, and before I could help a little, the war was over, so I could only find something to do on my own, and escort these soldiers on the way back to Beijing. ”
"Haha...... , brother, you are really interesting, I think when the old man joined the army, he desperately wanted to be greedy for more military merits, alas...... , forget it, don't mention those, come and have a drink with the old man, and appreciate and appreciate my Wushan Mine Competition!" Bai Lingtian pulled Lin Ming to fly onto the high platform and pointed to the school road not far away.
"What is that?"
Lin Ming looked into the school field, and saw two extremely strong-looking slaves fighting fiercely, and their shots seemed to be out of order, but they were fierce and vicious, and they were close to the door of life.
"Haha...... , brother doesn't know, there are not 1,000 but 800 slaves sent to my Wushan mine every year, deducting the slaves who die every year, the overall number of slaves is still growing, so I have to develop new mines, install these new people, so that they have work to do, plus the last batch of slaves you sent, you can get together more than 2,000 people, enough to open a new mine, haha...... , the one hundred and eighth mine, thanks to the blessing of the martial kingdom this day, several new mines have been opened in a few months!"
"And this Wushan mine big competition, is the old man's idea, brother, you are also the right one, you can't see this death match in other slave farms, the ten guards of the new mine, the hundred guards, the thousand guards, and then the highest supervisor, are all decided by this big competition, and these slaves are responsible, which is very fair. ”
Lin Ming glanced at Bai Lingtian beside him, groaned slightly, and sighed in a low voice: "I see, these positions have been set up, giving the slaves hope, and if they have a goal, they will definitely work harder, but, Lord Bai, aren't you afraid that after handing over these positions, the slaves will unite and plot to escape?"
"It doesn't matter, the treatment I give to these guard commanders is better than that of ordinary generals, why should they escape, in other words, a group of slaves, even if they escape, what can they do? It is better to be a guard commander in my Wushan Mountain, as long as these guard commanders are there, this group of slaves will not be able to make big waves, and just in case, the old man also has a hand, this Wushan mine, come in, don't think about going out!" Bai Lingtian raised his glass and drank after speaking, looking extremely proud and proud.
Hearing Bai Lingtian's words, Lin Ming couldn't help but look over at Su Shan's side, but saw that he was looking at the competition in the school field with great concentration, Lin Ming stared at him for a long time, and sighed secretly in his heart, it seems that this young man wants to escape from here, it is difficult......
Su Shan watched another slave in the school yard being beaten to death by his opponent at this time, and he didn't tremble like the young man beside him, this kind of bloody scene, he had seen too much on the Divine Domain Crystal Mountain, and he was already almost numb to it.
He turned his head to look at the still trembling young man beside him, who seemed to be about the same height as him, but his figure was quite thin, and there was an equally thin little girl on his back, and it was obvious that the two of them were not the children of official eunuchs.
The cry for help when he was in the prisoner's car should have come from this young man, but looking at his appearance, is he a citizen of the Tianwu Kingdom? No matter how you look at it, it will not be a soldier or a child of an official eunuch.
Su Shan came to the young man's side and said in a low voice, "Friend, how did you end up here?"
The young man was obviously startled when he heard the sound, and under the shaking, the girl who had fallen asleep on his back woke up, Su Shan raised her eyes and looked over, although her face was dirty, but she could see that her facial features were quite delicate, but it seemed that because of malnutrition, her face was dull and her hair was yellow.
"Male... Hello Childe. The young man turned his head, his face was a little immature, but there was no slackness in his movements, and he clasped his fists and saluted.
"They are all slaves, who are you calling Gongzi, my name is Su Shan. Su Shan stood in front of the young man and said slowly.
"Ah, Sue... Hello Sushan. The young man was still a little shy, and then said: "My name is Mo Wei, and my sister Mo Yuzhu is behind." ”
"Uh, you... Name...... Very good. After Su Shan heard his name, he was also slightly stunned, and then asked, "Are you the people of Tianwu Kingdom?"
"No... No, although the Great Jin Kingdom destroyed the Tianwu Kingdom, it is still very good for ordinary people, and no people have been captured as slaves...... It's the son of General Zuo Xiaocai......" Mo Yizheng said, but he suddenly lowered his head and said in a low voice: "But I, like my sister, are both concubines." ”
Su Shan was stunned when he heard this, he couldn't imagine that these two people were still the children of wealthy families, and they were much stronger than petty officials who couldn't get on the stage like his biological father, but looking at the appearance of these two people, they obviously received a great cold reception because of their relationship.
"Were the two of you also rescued by that person?" Su Shan pointed to Lin Ming on the high platform not far away and asked softly.
"Ahh Be... Yes, although before Lord Lin Ming arrived, there were many children of official eunuchs who were beheaded, but after Lord Lin Ming arrived, the remaining children who had not yet been beheaded had a way to live, and those who were similar to us here were all children of official eunuchs who were rescued by Lord Lin Ming. Mo Zhi looked at Lin Ming on the high platform in the distance and said in a low voice.
"Lin Ming, it turned out to be called Lin Ming......" Su Shan muttered to himself.
Just when Su Shan was muttering to himself, a crisp sound of a gong suddenly sounded in the school field, and then a small old slave came out and said in a loud voice: "In the newly added One Hundred and Eight Mine, all ten Captains, Hundred Captains, and Thousand-Captain Guards belong! In the end, only the most important position of the Hundred and Eight Mine Supervisor remains, but before this final victory begins! Let us invite our great Wushan Mine Owner, Lord Bai Lingtian, to deliver an important speech with the most enthusiastic applause!"
'Zidlong Knock' 'Zidlong Knock'
As soon as the old man's voice fell, gongs, drums and firecrackers rang out in unison, and many slaves chanted in unison, as if Bai Lingtian was quite popular.
"Hehehe...... Okay, everyone's worked hard......"
After Bai Lingtian stood up from the seat on the high platform, he only waved his hand, and in an instant, the entire mine was silent, and only his voice echoed around.
"Today's Wushan Mine Competition, the warriors from various mining areas who came to participate in the competition let the old man see your courage to fight bravely and the spirit of harmonious competition, all of which really touched me a lot. ”
"And you don't have to be discouraged by ordinary slaves who don't have the same strength as them, you just need to work enthusiastically, hard-working, selfless, and happy, and the old man will also select them to become the ten-person guard commander according to the merit, so don't be passive and slack off, for a better tomorrow that will come sooner or later, with gratitude, dedicate every bit of your strength!
Bai Lingtian's voice was strong and low, accompanied by his waving gestures, it looked full of momentum from a distance, his voice changed, he turned his head to look at Su Shan and the other new slaves, and said: "New slaves, you have just experienced a war, and the old man is deeply sympathetic to this, but these are not things that I can control......
"Presumably, before you came here, you may have heard some rumors about Wushan Mine, but the old man just wants to say that those ...... are all fake! They are completely slandering the old man! They are jealousy! They are slandering!"
Bai Lingtian said as he spoke, his tone gradually became a little excited, he himself seemed to notice it, he lowered his head and exhaled deeply, adjusted back in time, and then said: "The old man can have today's power and status, all of which are given by you, the old man always remembers it in his heart and does not dare to forget it, so in my heart I have always taken care of you as my children......
"Huh...... No matter how much I say, it is better for you to experience it yourself, and finally, on behalf of Wushan Mine, I welcome everyone to join this big family!"
"This newly established 1008 mine will be created by everyone who has just arrived in Wushan!"
A passionate speech attracted everyone's echo and applause, but whether it was out of the heart or not was unknown, at least these words in Su Shan's ears made him feel extremely unhappy.
He laboriously raised his hands that were imprisoned by chains, wiped the rain from his face, stared at the Wushan mine owner on the high platform in the distance, and the words in his mouth made Mo Yi beside him dumbfounded.
"Huh...... , what a Wushan mine owner, these words are all your fucking bullshit!"
