Chapter 747: Wu Nava, a Japanese man
On the south bank of Luoshui, a brand-new city is about to rise from the ground.
It's just that the foundation of this city has just been laid, and it has not been completed.
Qingji looked around and saw tens of thousands of people working there shirtless, sweating like rain.
Some people are wielding hoes to dig pits, some are pushing wooden wheeled carts, some are carrying flat poles, some are carrying blue-striped stone bricks, and some are laying bricks......
It is not easy to build a city, not to mention financial and material resources, this manpower is indispensable.
The Sanchuan County Commander Shoutian Tho, who was following him, bowed down and said, "Please name this city, the king." ”
"Luoyin, this city is called 'Luoyin'."
"Luo Yin? Good name! ”
Tian Sui Tho complimented.
In fact, Qingji has already chosen a name for this new city.
People of this era had some rules for naming cities.
Such as Huainan, because it is located in the south of the Huai River.
The north of the mountain and the south of the water are yin.
The south of the mountain and the north of the water are the sun.
The opposite of Luoyin is naturally Luoyang!
This new city is located on the south bank of Luoshui, and it is understandable that Qingji is named "Luoyin".
Qingji then glanced at Luoyin City, which was under construction.
I saw that on the foundation of the city, which covered an extremely wide area, almost all of the people who were busy were dark-faced and skinny Kunlun slaves.
In the complicated labor of the Wu State, almost all the coolies used in various projects are Kunlun slaves.
Therefore, the conscription of Wu is the lightest among the kingdoms of the heavens, and it can be said that it has truly achieved "light conscription and thin endowment".
However, this has caused hundreds of thousands of Kunlun slaves who have crossed the ocean and been caught in Wu.
Heavy labor work will lead to the death of a large number of Kunlun slaves.
It's inevitable.
It's just that Qingji doesn't care about this kind of thing.
Although Qingji and these Kunlun slaves from East Asia and Southeast Ya have no grievances in the past, they have no hatred in recent days.
But these Kunlun slaves are all free labor.
In the minds of the people of Wu Guo, perhaps these hundreds of thousands of Kunlun slaves are just a group of "talking animals......
"Hurry up!"
"Don't be lazy!"
"Smack!"
The soldiers in charge of overseeing the work were urging the Kunlun slaves to work as soon as possible, and when they saw Kunlun slaves who were too tired to do anything, or who were cheating and slippery, they directly whipped them up and beat the other party's back to the point that the skin was open.
It's a cruel practice!
Qingji looked at an old man with gray temples, who was careless when pushing the cart, and as soon as his feet slipped, he tripped and fell, and even the mud and stones in the bucket cart poured out.
This situation caused the soldiers not far away to be furious, and they were whipped again.
With a "snap", the whip that flew out did not hit the old man's body, but was caught by a relatively strong Kunlun slave beside him.
With the palm of his hand, he took the whip hard!
However, this Kunlun slave just snorted, and looked at the whipping soldier with a fierce look, as if he couldn't eat him alive.
The soldier looked stunned, his eyes flickered, and he was a little frightened.
It was as if standing in front of him was not a lowly slave, but a fierce beast, a Menghu......
It's just that after a moment of distraction, the soldier came back to his senses, but said angrily: "Presumptuous! ”
"You daring slave! Cheap slave! Dare to confront me, don't you want to live? ”
Kunlun Nu, who was holding the whip, did not speak, but glared at him viciously, and his two thick nostrils exhaled, like a bull about to go berserk, full of danger.
The movement here attracted the attention of many people on the construction site.
Qingji led the ministers, as well as a group of guards, all followed the stride meteor.
Seeing this, the Kunlun slave had no choice but to let go of the whip in his hand.
The soldier, who was still pulling the whip and couldn't move at all, stumbled and almost didn't fall to the ground.
In addition to being ashamed, the soldier shouted angrily, and whipped the whip in his hand again and again on this Kunlun slave's body.
"Smack! Syllable! Syllable! ”
The dull sound, every time, made this strong, dark-skinned Kunlun Nu skin bloom, and there were eye-catching blood marks on his chest, face, and shoulders......
However, even so, this Kunlun slave was still very hard, with sweat particles the size of beans on his forehead, and he was whipped like this, but he still didn't move, like an iron pestle, and he didn't even scream in his mouth!
This kind of willpower is undoubtedly very impressive.
"Stop!"
Before Qingji could speak, Gongzi Hong, who was following alongside, shouted and stopped the soldier who was still beating Kunlun Nu.
"The King."
When the soldiers saw the arrival of Qingji and the others, they couldn't help but be shocked, and hurriedly bowed to Qingji.
"Stand down."
"No!"
Qingji waved his hand and asked the soldier to retreat.
Then, on the huge construction site, the original order was restored.
Under the supervision of the overseers, the Kunlun slaves are still busy in full swing.
There are Kunlun slaves who dare to slack off, and they are indispensable to receive a few whips.
Of all the servitudes, the ones who really had a place were the craftsmen who were recruited from the people.
They need to be paid by the government, and they are paid well, compared with these Kunlun slaves who can only do hard work, the treatment can be described as a heaven and a ......
The difference between cloud and mud!
"Bold! When you see the king, why don't you worship? ”
Gou Jian, who was following Qingji, looked at the Kunlun slave who was still silent on the other side, and couldn't help but be furious and reprimanded loudly.
"Wu Nava, see the king! Long live the king! Years! ”
Kunlun Nu, named "Wu Nava", ignored the bloody scars on his body, gritted his teeth, lowered his head, and bowed to the five bodies of Qingji.
This is etiquette that does not conform to any kind of etiquette.
However, Kunlun Nu is a person with a low status and a life like a mustard, where will he know about etiquette?
The most important thing is that this Kunlun slave can still speak Wu language?
Although he was very awkward and couldn't hear it at all if he didn't listen carefully, Qingji could still know that the other party was already familiar with the language of Wu and began to follow the customs......
Is this good or bad?
"Are you a widow?"
"Yes. The king, the villain came from Wadao Island (named after Qingji) in the east, and about three years ago, he was captured by the army of Wu and drifted all the way across the ocean to Wu State. ”
"The villain traveled in Lingnan and southwest, and now he has come here, this should be the Central Plains, right?"
Wu Nava is a clever man.
Realizing Qingji's identity, he felt that this was an opportunity for him to get out of slavery, or even be valued by Qingji, and then get ahead!
When Qingji was talking to Wu Nafa, Gongzihong had already stepped forward and helped the old man who had tripped to the ground before, and then was paralyzed with fright.
Although this old man was born in Kunlun, the kind-hearted Gongzi Hong still can't see this kind of thing!
