Chapter 302: Loot First

Zhu Gaoxian pointed to the shore, "In the future, we can only build a wharf from here, rest assured, these problems can be solved in the future." ”

Yan Minchu breathed a sigh of relief, but suddenly thought about it, and unconsciously, he seemed to have a blind trust in this young man, and even believed that if he said that he could solve it, he could really solve it.

"It's just that we need to bring steel over, and we can't do it in a moment. But for the time being, let's build a wooden dock and use it temporarily, at least not after the boat runs aground, but also on land on the flowing water. ”

However, it is still too early to say this, and now we must build up the drilling equipment first, of course, we must not be able to use the most primitive means to drill.

The generators were moved to the island, the excavators were disassembled and assembled, and little by little they were transported and assembled, and the huge machines were quickly sorted out on a large flat field.

When the generators are running, the power is output, many tools are used, including chainsaws, and towering trees are knocked down and cut into planks in front of the turning knives, and the house is built with these woods and planks.

Those black slaves basically only need to give the Ming people a hand, carry wood, and build a house according to their requirements, and they don't need to do some heavy work of logging.

Soon, the foundation of a wooden house about ten meters long and about one meter from the ground was erected, and there was no time to build the roof for the time being.

Fortunately, the tent was brought in advance, except for the soldiers on night duty and the black slaves, everyone else lived in the tent, but despite this, this was not the life that a prince should live.

The dog did not sleep, but sat beside him, guarding His Highness by the faint light of the light provided by the generator outside, and he thought to himself, if the Emperor knew that His Highness had spent the night in such a wilderness, he did not know what he would have thought in his heart.

And Yan Minchu was also unsettled, he never dreamed that one day, he would lie down with His Royal Highness the Prince of the Ming Dynasty and spend such an unquiet night in such a wilderness.

In the middle of the night, there were wild beasts patronizing, and the vigilant Ming Navy saw the green eyes that suddenly appeared in the dark, and the light of the generator shone on these beasts, making them see at a glance that this was a pack of wolves.

I actually encountered a pack of wolves.

Gu Yun was so frightened that he almost jumped up, he couldn't wait to pounce on the wolves, and serve the wolves with his body, so as not to frighten His Highness.

"I Have a Catalogue of Ghosts and Gods"

"Shoot!"

Gu Yun didn't think about it, so he gave the order directly.

The sound of the machine gun sounded suddenly in this calm night, the dog jumped up from the ground, and he hugged Zhu Gaoxian, "Your Highness, get up quickly, the slave will escort you out!" ”

Zhu Gaoxian opened his eyes, he opened the tent, Gu Yun had already rushed over, the bright light shone on the beads of sweat rolling down his forehead, and he couldn't speak, "Your Highness, wolves!" ”

"Kill it!"

It was not only in the wilderness, but also in the middle of the night, which was originally the territory of these beasts, and it was normal to encounter wolves or tigers and leopards.

Gu Yun immediately turned around, he was glad at this time, fortunately he had made sufficient preparations during the day, and the ammunition was very sufficient, seeing that many wolves were killed, the wolves were so frightened that they shrank back, after Gu Yun was frightened, he refused to let go of these beasts, and shouted, "Bomb with grenades!" ”

"Yes!"

"Loot the surroundings!"

"Yes!"

Half an hour later, the gunfire and bombardment finally stopped, and Zhu Gaoxian glanced out again and lay down in the tent again.

"Let's put up the fence tomorrow!" He yawned.

In his previous life, he often had to help the family do farm work, and he was busy all day, and he would sleep soundly at night, but in this life, he was pampered, and he was still running around in the battle of Jingjing, and then he began to develop science and technology, and his father did not force him to practice martial arts, so he became more and more unable to pick his shoulders and his hands.

Zhu Gaoxian soon fell asleep.

The next day, the morning light pierced through the fog and obscured branches and leaves in the mountains, and shone on this newly reclaimed base, Zhu Gaoxian opened his eyes in the bright tent.

The fragrance of porridge has begun to waft outside, a large hanging pot has been added to the ground, a black slave guards the side to add firewood, the tongue of fire licks the bottom of the pot, the white porridge makes a gurgling sound, bubbling and foaming, emitting an intoxicating fragrance.

The black slave couldn't help but swallow.

After yesterday's beast snooping, and Zhu Gaoxian's order, today everyone invariably put down their division of labor and began to cut down wood to make the city wall.

The planks were cut to a height of two meters and stacked together.

An area four hundred paces long and three hundred paces wide had been drawn on the ground, and the excavators were digging trenches in the ground, and the black slaves were planting planks in the trenches, covering them with earth, and pounding them with wood.

"How many wolves died last night? Can you skin a wolf skin off? ”

After Zhu Gaoxian freshened up, he walked to the place where the dead wolves were piled up, and he couldn't see more than a dozen heads.

"There are nine dead in total, and those brutes are running so fast, I wonder if they will come over tonight?" Gu Yun said worriedly.

"The wolf is not stupid, he suffered such a heavy loss last night, and he will come back tonight?" Zhu Gaoxian thought that he didn't know much about the wolf race, and said, "Even if you come, don't be afraid, it's a big deal to lose more shells, let's come out this time, there are not many others, and we still bring a lot of shells." ”

Gu Yun laughed, their original plan was to fight wherever they went, and it turned out that many places really saved a lot of bullets, not to mention anything else, just Zhenla and Siam.

That night, the "city wall" was erected, and the black slaves were very good at their work, weaving together the wooden planks that had been erected with vines that could be seen everywhere, and they buried the ends of the vines in the ground.

They intended that the vines would grow again after they had re-established themselves in the ground, so that the walls made of planks would be stronger with the binding of living vines.

Zhu Gaoxian looked at many vines as if they were about to wither, he secretly pinched them, and saw that the withered skin inside was wrapped in green, which was clearly a plant with fresh vitality.

Does this count as a kind of non-discrimination in their bones that inspired the subjective initiative of these black slaves?

Zhu Gaoxian felt that he should reward these blacks, so he instructed the dog, "One person should pay six cents!" ”

From the death of the king of the west and the return of these black slaves to Zhu Gaoxian, to this day, it is a total of six days.

Since Zhu Gaoxian said that hiring locals is one penny a day, Zhu Gaoxian is naturally six pennies per person.

The dog hurriedly said, "Yes! ”

He was about to leave, when he thought of one more thing, "Your Highness, there are a total of three hundred and twenty-one of these black slaves, since they are temporarily loaned to the Ministry of Works, someone must manage them, why don't the slaves and maids let them choose a leader by themselves, and it is convenient for Your Highness to send them?" ”

"It's good!"

After a while, the dog brought a black slave to Zhu Gaoxian.

The black slave was about six feet tall, standing up like a tower, he was all dark, he was wearing a vest on his upper body, and a pair of five-point trousers on his lower body, and his black hair on his head was curled like marbles, and his body was covered with black charcoal.

"Your Highness, this man's name is Maha. It was the slave maid who asked them to elect the leader, and the slave and maid said that His Royal Highness had an order, and one person gave them six cents in wages, and they refused to ask for it alive or dead. ”

And those who don't want money?

Zhu Gaoxian looked at the big man kneeling in front of him, very humble, as close to the ground as possible, he was very puzzled, he frowned good-looking, and asked, "Don't get paid?" ”

The interpreter asked Maha, Maha didn't dare to raise his head, still landed on his forehead, and said a language that Zhu Gaoxian didn't understand, and the interpreter was stunned for a while, and the literal translation was given to Zhu Gaoxian.

"Your Highness, he said, he was a slave, and he was the property of his master, and a property is not worthy of possession. He is already very satisfied with his current life, and he is very grateful to his master for his gifts. ”

Zhu Gaoxian thought for a while, he unconsciously twisted his fingers, "You told him that in Daming, slaves and maids also get paid." ”

The blacks were shocked and insisted, and the interpreter told the slaves, "The slaves must obey the orders of their masters, and since Your Highness wants to pay you, you should not refuse, otherwise you will disobey the will of your masters." ”

There were a total of 321 black slaves, six cents per person, and the dog, as the steward in charge of these black people, used a basket to fill some copper coins, and one person distributed six, telling them that when they returned to Daming in the future, they could use these copper coins to buy some things they wanted.

While distributing the wages, the dog was overjoyed to see these black slaves, and after getting the money, he saluted Zhu Gaoxian as if worshipping the gods, and said in his heart, "One penny a day, the lives of these people are really lower than grass mustard."

I don't know where the king of the west got these black slaves, one by one, they were born tall and big, and they were actually caught and sent to be black slaves.

Zhu Gaoxian actually thought of one thing from the moment he saw the black slaves, where did the king of the West get these black slaves?

He remembers that he studied history in his previous life, and it was recorded that the slave trade began in 1441 when a Portuguese expedition raided ten black Africans off the coast near Cape Brown and brought them back to Lisbon for sale.

During the Tang Dynasty in China, there were also "Kunlun slaves", "Kunlun slaves, Silla maids" were slaves that only the high-ranking magnates could afford.

So, is there something wrong with the records in the history books of his previous life, or is it because of his crossing that it led to the butterfly effect, which changed the world?

If it is the latter, then he needs to be vigilant.

At this time, in the Western Hemisphere, what stage are those former maritime hegemons in Europe now? From the earliest Portugal, to Spain, from Spain to the Netherlands, from the Netherlands to the United Kingdom, what is the level of their country?
