Chapter 51: Wooden Plaque and Rescue [Ask for Recommendation and Collection]

The purchase of weapons and equipment and the training of recruits, Ziggy handed over the responsibility to Biden, Biden is Ziggy's most confidant and most important subordinate, and it is most appropriate to leave these matters to him. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

After arranging these things, Ziggy still felt that it was not enough, because there was too little manpower, and if there were more people, it was necessary to attract more labor to immigrate to Grizzly Village.

So Ziggy hung a huge wooden sign on the gate of the frozen earth wall of Grizzly Village, which had just been built.

It is written in the lingua franca of Odin: In Grizzly Village, as long as you work hard, you will get a better life.

Many villagers are illiterate, have asked each other, when the villagers learn what is written on the wooden card, will involuntarily warm up and down, it is a strange feeling, like a seed, a seed of strength, in the hearts of the villagers sprout!

Why are some people reluctant to work hard? Is it because they don't see the day when their efforts come to fruition?

Why are soldiers unwilling to work hard? Isn't it because they can't see the opportunity to be rewarded for meritorious service, promoted to a higher post, and to receive honors?

Why are farmers reluctant to farm? Isn't it because they can't see the opportunity to get rich in farming?

Why are scholars reluctant to develop R&D? Isn't it just that they can't see the opportunity for their hard work to become wealth?

Ziggy not only wants the villagers to see the opportunity to be rich in Grizzly Village, but also wants them to spread this word as if it were faith.

As long as there is an opportunity to be rich that can be seen and touched, and when everyone wants to be rich, Grizzly Village will burst with infinite vitality, and when the villagers of other villages feel the same way, a wave of immigration will form.

Then the problem of labor shortage in Grizzly Village can be satisfactorily solved.

Conceptual identity and ideal identity are so powerful that they do not need to be coerced, and the poor will sharpen their heads and join the place where this idea and ideal is possessed.

Population is everything in the age of cold weapons, both the productive forces of the whole country and the war potential of the whole country.

......

As soon as he finished hanging up the sign, Ziggy returned to his residence in the village hall and planned to take a break, but was startled by Daddy Chuck, who had been waiting inside.

"I want to see my daughter, I want to see my Elvira, Chief Zigger, please think of a way. With tears in his eyes, Daddy Chuck told Ziggy about his desire to see his eldest daughter.

The last time Ziggy learned about the living conditions of the prairie humans from Kirton, Chuck's father was already eager for Ziggy to save his eldest daughter, but at that time, the village wall had not yet been built, and Ziggy couldn't save it if he wanted to!

But Daddy Chuck doesn't see it that way.

Daddy Chuck had been hoping for a miracle to happen one day when his eldest daughter would suddenly appear at the entrance of the village and wave to him with his grandson......

The last time he heard about the miserable living conditions of the human beings who had been taken captive and enslaved on the steppe, this expectation seemed to be a step away, but he still hoped for a miracle, and the only person he knew who could bring about this miracle was the village chief Zige.

Isn't it a miracle that the village chief of Zige can get so many sheep from the steppe orcs, roast the mutton for the villagers, and cook mutton soup?

Isn't it a miracle that Chief Zig was able to build a wall to protect the village in two days?

If Chief Ziggy can perform one miracle and two miracles, he can perform a third miracle and a fourth miracle, and his eldest daughter, Elvira, may come back in the third or fourth miracle?

For this, Daddy Chuck came to the door again to ask Ziggy to figure it out.

"Hmm...... This thing is not so easy to do, if you want to go deep into the grassland to rescue those villagers, you have to build a large number of troops, and it must be cavalry, no cavalry, no sophisticated equipment, no more than 100,000 men and horses, how can you save so many people from the hands of the strong and fierce werewolf orcs?" Qige is not completely helpless, the most direct way to rescue the grassland orcs is to destroy all the steppe werewolf tribes and orc tribes, but this does not have a dozen or two hundred thousand well-equipped cavalry troops, and going deep into the grassland is a sheep into the tiger's mouth.

"100,000 ......" Daddy Chuck was frightened by the number Ziggy said, there are only two or three hundred people in the entire Grizzly Village, 100,000 knights, unless this Ziggy Village Elder becomes the emperor, how can he mobilize 100,000 people?

Daddy Chuck was hit hard and muttered away.

"Wait!" Just as Daddy Chuck was about to step out of the door, Ziggy suddenly had an idea and shouted, "I have a way!"

This meeting was really not what experience Ziggy had borrowed from the advantage of crossing the crowd, but his own method.

And his method is very simple, that is, like cattle, sheep and livestock, use iron pots and exchange materials!

It sounds very inhumane to trade humans like livestock, and in the eyes of some people, rescuing the human race who were taken away by the orcs as slaves is of course necessary to be beaten down with real knives and guns to get justice, but does Ziggy have such a ability now?

The answer is no!

Ziggy is a very pragmatic person, and since this method can save those humans who are enslaved by the steppe orcs, why not save it?

Those who say, "I'm not going to pay with blood, I'm going to crush my opponents with my iron hooves." There are a lot of people, but Ziggy is not such a person, idealistic things let idealistic people do, anyway, Ziggy doesn't do it, and he can't do it, Ziggy can't raise an army of 100,000 to attack the steppe orc tribe in a few months.

In fact, even if it is a cavalry force of 100,000 people, it is still an optimistic estimate, the Blue Star Grassland is so big, there are so many werewolf tribes and orc tribes, unless everyone is immortal, 100,000 cavalry is like sprinkling salt into the sea.

Now Ziggy has built the city wall at best, got thousands of silver coins, and solved the problem of Grizzly Village, and it is still very, very far away from leading the army to sweep through the steppe orc tribe, and Ziggy is still very, very far away, to do this, at least ten or twenty years later, when all the damned people are dead, how can they save the enslaved humans?

Therefore, using iron pots and materials to buy human slaves from the Hegus Department is the most suitable choice, as long as they are given enough profit margins, the werewolf orcs of the Hegus Department will not only sell the human slaves in their own tribe to Zige, but also may buy human slaves from other tribes in order to trade materials with Zig, and sell them to Zig.

However, Ziggy quickly thought of another question, would the Hegus Ministry loot the existing human villages and loot the population in order to do a business, and sell them to Ziggy?

This possibility was quickly ruled out by Zige, first of all, the human villages that can exist now are all highly vigilant villages, either there is defense, or there is a place to hide, it is easy for the steppe orcs to grab some supplies now, but it is not easy to kill people and plunder the population, the Hegus Department is a small tribe, every werewolf warrior is very precious, it is not cost-effective for them to storm this kind of thing, and a few more people will be swallowed up by other tribes.

According to Zige's understanding in the past few days, the werewolf tribe and orc tribes on the grassland are not only not monolithic with each other, but also often attack each other, and the two tribes that have a grudge will not give up if they do not kill the other side to destroy the tribe, once a werewolf orc tribe attacks the feud tribe, the werewolf orcs who are more than the height of the wheel will be killed, and they will not even have the opportunity to be slaves.

There must also be feuding tribes in the Hegus tribe, and if they die a few more warriors, they may face the danger of being wiped out by the feuding tribes, and the orcs are not stupid.

Moreover, Ziggy will attach a clause to the transaction, that is, only trade humans who have been taken captive for more than a year, so as to eliminate this possibility.

Ziggy also thought of another important question: would such a deal be a rival?

Definitely!

But the most important thing now is to rescue the human slaves who were enslaved by the steppe orcs, such a choice is necessary, as for the matter of the enemy, it is also a matter of the future, it is not so easy for the Hegus Department to develop and grow, although Ziggy does not know the details of the situation on the grassland, but there must be a powerful steppe orc tribe with tens of thousands of soldiers.

How many people are there in the Hegus Department and those tribes with which he is friendly? From Kirton's mouth, I learned that the werewolf young and middle-aged warriors of the Hegus Department alone are only forty or fifty at best, and it is already the top of the sky for the whole clan to mobilize more than 100 wolf cavalry, and if they want to fight against the tribe of tens of thousands of people, and maintain a good strategic partnership with Zigrizzly Village, that is the basis for their future development, if it goes well, the trade relationship between Grizzly Village and Hegus can be maintained for at least ten years.

Even if the Hegus tribe really developed into a big werewolf tribe of thousands of people and tens of thousands of people ten years later, and then turned its guns to deal with Ziggy, Qige might not be afraid of them! The Hegus tribe would develop, wouldn't Grizzly Village develop?

Taking 10,000 steps back, it is also imperative to use transactions to rescue enslaved humans, so many people are eager to get news of their relatives, so many wives are separated, and the call for rescuing enslaved humans will be very high in Grizzly Village alone.

As a village chief, being able to rescue the relatives of the villagers who were suffering allowed Ziggy to gain unprecedented prestige among the villagers.

Of course, this method is looking for a needle in a haystack, because no one knows whose relatives are now, whether they are still alive or not, maybe Chuck's father's eldest daughter is long dead, but it gives a little hope to the living.

What do people live by? Isn't it just a little hope?

But the matter of trading with the Ministry of Hegus and buying the captive humans from them with supplies cannot be handed over to Daddy Chuck, and it is chaotic to care, once the werewolves see something, it will be troublesome to ask for a price.

This can only be done by Ziggy himself.

In a few days, won't it be the day when I will hand over the arrears of the nine-mouth iron pot to Kapushkin, the old slippery head of the Hegus Ministry?

The scarce materials of the steppe orcs are not only iron pots, the needles they use to make and sew clothes are still ground from bones, as well as food for winter, why do steppe orcs often go south to rob human villages in winter and spring, isn't it because cattle, sheep and livestock are easy to freeze to death in winter, and steppe orcs don't have enough food?

When the time comes, you can sell them any grain, flour, needles, and even those who eat for dinner.

Without spoons and tongs, do these steppe orcs use their hands to reach into the boiling water when the meat is cooked?

Since the steppe orcs need these living supplies, it gives Ziggy a chance to make money!
