[Slaves], [Limin], [Commoners], [Yi Min].

Among these four classes of people, [slaves] belong to slaves who have no freedom of life at all, and the power of life and death is in the hands of the master's family, which is lower than cattle, horses, and livestock.

As for the [Limin], although they only need to serve one season of hard labor in the [Liying] every year to be exempt from taxes, except for one season of service, they need to forage for food like rootless duckweed, and work for others to eat, and they are not paid.

Moreover, serving in the [subordinate battalion], he got up earlier than the chickens, ate worse than the pigs, worked more than the cows, slept later than the dogs, and his life was not guaranteed, whether he died of exhaustion, illness, or being abused to death by the [guards] such as mine guards, he was all responsible for the consequences.

In comparison, the treatment of [slaves] is worse than that of [slaves], those [slaves] in the hands of the master's family are their own "livestock", no matter how they are exploited and bullied, they will be spared death, if someone counts the mortality rate of [subordinates] and [slaves], the mortality rate of [subordinates] is dozens of times higher than that of [slaves]!

As for the [common people], although they are nominally "commoners", the vast majority of them are also below the subsistence line, because according to the regulations of the [Iron Furnace Fort], a household [common people] need to pay 50 taels of millet every year, and if they can't pay it, they have to be re-registered.

In other words, even if a person who is a lowly subordinate is [floating and becoming a concubine], it is not so easy to live, and once he can't pay the food, he will still be beaten back to his original form!

As for the [Yi people] promised by the lord of the small yi, although it is equivalent to the tenant of the lord of the yi, and he has to work for the lord of the yi when the farm is not working, but it is exempt from taxation, and the grain is paid by the lord of the yi, which is also the reason why all the common people want to become [the people of the yi].

Therefore, the lord of Xiaoyi simply and generously said that if Gu Yi wins, he is willing to accept those people to become the [Yi people] under her fiefdom.

But for Gu Yi, just a little food, can it be a thing?

Normally, a household of five [common people] can own an average of [Yidian] size of land (about 80 mu), and in the context of low productivity, the yield per mu of land is no more than "one hundred" (75. 6kg)" only.

That is to say, 80 dendrobs of grain are planted every year, more than 60% are handed over, and the remaining 30 dendrobs of grain are left, and a family of five has to eat and wear for a whole year!

Not to mention the land where these people from the Iron Courtyard grow food, such a little food is estimated to be not enough for those who forge their bodies.

When he was in the [Hollow Valley], Gu Yi set the food standard for his subordinates in the iron courtyard was six meals a day, one bucket of millet a meal, plus dishes and blood food to accompany the meal, and the food cost was very low, and the average person would get a big gold for eating and drinking a day.

After planting the land for a year and beating the millet out is just enough for the people in the Iron Courtyard to eat for a month, can Gu Yi be a slave for this little girl for such a little grain money?

But in the eyes of others, Gu Yi's behavior of preferring to be a self-reliant [commoner] rather than a exempt [Yimin] is completely a pure fool who doesn't sell it for five cents.

Seeing that Gu Yi didn't appreciate it, the lord of Xiaoyi was angry and funny, thinking that he, a wild man who came out of the mountains, didn't know the world, and he didn't bother to entangle with him anymore, so he agreed, and just asked a few words about the standard of this exercise, how to be better than her subordinate Karma.

I'm afraid that this pure fool thinks that like a monkey in the mountains, climbing high and low is a good practice, and when the time comes, she will make a joke, and her face as the daughter of the castle and the lord of Yiyi will not be able to rest, and it will be rumored that she will have to become the second fool behind this pure fool.

"As long as you're not blind, you can tell the good and the bad at a glance!"

Gu Yi was very confident, and said with a smile: "That's it! Xiaoyi is mainly not at ease, and the Karma brothers called [Yulu Camp] will be compared with my Karma brothers, as long as they can keep up with the drills of my Karma brothers, or if one of you thinks that my Karma brothers are not practicing well, even if I lose!"

Seeing that Gu Yi said so firmly, the lord of Xiaoyi became uneasy, at this moment, a sound of horses' hooves and wooden wheels crushing the bluestone slabs in the forest road came, and a train rushed in like a lightning speed, stopped firmly on the school field of Yuyuan, and jumped down a group of people, led by the [bluestone mine] people's group of people and pins.

To Gu Yi's surprise, Gao Jie actually followed, but thinking about it, he was the [Yingzheng] of the mine camp and the owner of the [Bluestone Mine] Karma Regiment, and the Karma people under his command were summoned by the Xiaoyi Lord, so he naturally wanted to follow.

But before it was still white and fat, the red face was full of Gaojie, which was only separated for a few hours, and now one eye puffed up a big bag of black blood, swollen and couldn't be opened, the bridge of the nose was also broken, the face was blue and purple, half of the cheeks were deflated, it looked like a lot of big teeth had been lost, the corners of the mouth were broken, and the lips were swollen like a pig's large intestine.

The lord of Xiaoyi was surprised and said, "Huh, you are the battalion of the [bluestone mine]? uh, this figure looks a little similar..."

Gao Jie trembled and hugged a broken arm, dragged a lame leg, his face was pale like a fat pig scalded with boiling water, he barely twitched his swollen fat lips, but he didn't say anything, just barely bowed slightly under the support of the two captains.

Gao Jie gritted his loose teeth and gurgled, and the remaining small eyes that could be opened shot out with a crazy resentful and resentful light, staring at Gu Yi who was standing beside the lord of Xiaoyi.

In fact, there is no need for him to answer anything, everyone present can probably guess what is going on, it is nothing more than that Rong Wei lost a city in the power game with Baozheng, and his anger has nowhere to vent, and his anger is transferred to Gao Jie, who is called the Qian Rong who was poached by the two sides, from the Qianren camp under his name.

Looking at his expression, he obviously shifted his anger to Gu Yi, the culprit, but he didn't want to think about it, if he hadn't hidden Gu Yi, who had a good [Blood Soul] talent, to fight for himself, and how much he was holding on to the source of both sides, he planned to secretly hug Bao Zheng's thigh, and didn't report to [Rong Wei's Office] as soon as possible, how could such a thing happen.

Gu Yi, who was angrily looked at by Gao Jie, is innocent, is it wrong to behave too well when he fights?

It is estimated that Gao Jie, who had just been violently beaten by the bad-tempered Rong Lieutenant, didn't even have time to wrap up his injuries, and was driven to the [Yulu Battalion] Qiang Rong to inform Xiaoyi to summon the Qiang people under his name.

He was just hated by Rong Wei, and if he offended the Bao Zheng family again, he really had no place to stand in this [Iron Furnace Fort], so he didn't dare not come, and rushed over with a broken leg.
