Chapter 306: Bribery
The slaves handed in the spirit stones in order, two for each person, recorded by the bearded monk who distributed the shovel before entering the door, and those who had less than two spirit stones were pulled out separately and stood behind him, waiting for the inventory to be disposed of.
If there are more than two spirit stones, they will not be rewarded to individuals, but all of them will be handed over to the public, but the monks of the Weishan tribe will record it, and if they are injured or sick, they can be deducted from it.
The tribe encouraged slaves to dig more spirit stones, and issued a rule that if slaves mined a large number of them, contributed a lot, and showed enough loyalty, they could have the opportunity to be promoted to normal monks, and no longer have to be slaves with no hope for the future.
But since the introduction of this reward policy, no slave has been promoted to the rank of normal monk.
The slaves know this well, it is true that the more they mine, the greater the contribution, but who would convert a slave who can dig up a large number of spirit stones into a normal monk?
The tribal monks have to consume spirit stones, will the tribe be a fool?
This rule is like a cake full of temptation and sweetness, always in front, but never eaten, and the tribe does this just to stimulate the slaves to mine more.
As for being promoted to a normal tribal monk, don't even think about it, from the day you become a slave, unless you run away or the tribe perishes, you will be a slave for life.
Soon, after the slave in front walked by, it was Xu You's turn.
Looking at Xu You, who was stuffing his coat pockets, the bearded monk was stunned, he had an impression of this calm young monk, but he couldn't have imagined that it was just the first day of the mine, and this young slave could dig up so many spirit stones.
This is simply impossible, even those skilled and strong old slaves can only get five spirit stones a day at most. How did he do it?
But now that the number of spirit stones is being recorded, the bearded man is not easy to ask, so he just nodded.
Xu You took out the spirit stone from his pocket, and instead of putting it in the basket containing the spirit stone, he handed it to the bearded man, and said honestly: "My lord." The villain is the first day of mining, and he can't tell what is a spirit stone and what is a useless ore, but he is afraid that he will not be able to complete the task, so he will bring it back together, and ask the adults to help me identify it. ”
All the slaves were stunned, and they couldn't tell the difference between the spirit stone and the ore? The difference between the two is so big, even fools know what a spirit stone is? What is an ore, this slave has never seen a spirit stone. How did you become a devotional?
It seems that the bearded man is going to be furious, when he meets such a stupid slave, he can't even distinguish between spirit stones and ores, and his IQ is so low, what's the use of digging up more spirit stones?
Many slaves who have not turned their brains gloating in their hearts, but they don't know that it is they who have low IQs.
The bearded monk was also stunned, and he glanced at Xu You. I happened to see that the young man was looking at him sincerely, so he instantly understood the other party's intentions. Hehe smiled, rolled up his sleeves, and put away the spirit stone.
At the same time, he said: "It doesn't matter if you can't tell the difference, as the adult in charge of you, I have the responsibility and obligation to help you understand the difference between spirit stones and ores, and these pieces will be placed here with me first." I'll tell you when I'm clear, you go and rest first. ”
Xu You smiled and arched his hand, "Thank you, sir." ”
Seeing this, the other slaves looked at each other, why was this new slave so stupid. The adults didn't teach him a lesson, but they were so kind to him that they didn't even pursue whether they completed the task?
But the slave who had a slightly better brain showed a sudden look and couldn't help but slap his thigh.
Grass, what is bribery, this is called bribery, or naked face-to-face bribery, and I can't grasp any handles.
Isn't it normal for a slave to be unable to distinguish between ore and spirit stone, and then an adult to help, who can say anything?
High, really high...... Looking at Xu You, who was far away to rest, the slaves who reacted showed sincere admiration.
Only the clumsy slaves who were waiting to see the show were still wondering, why was this newcomer so stupid, and the adults were so kind to him?
So a self-righteous fool really took out two pieces of black ore, and when it was his turn, he handed it to the bearded man and said, "My lord, the villain can't tell what is a spirit stone and what is an ore, so I will bring it back together, and ask the adult to help me identify it." ”
Then this man looked at the bearded man with a smug face, waiting for the praise of the adults, and maybe as soon as he was happy, he was directly promoted from a slave to a normal monk, and then he would have ascended to the sky in one step.
The bearded man held two useless ores, threw them on the ground with a snap, his old face turned the color of pig liver, and said angrily: "Are you fooling me, get out of the way for me, and give me thirty lashes." ”
The slave's mouth suddenly opened wide, and he looked incredulous: "My lord, why are you doing this to me, that young slave can't tell the difference, why?"
"Why, for Nima's fool!" the bearded man turned blue, "Get out of here, or you'll be whipped sixty times." ”
A couple of slaves rushed up and dragged the stupid slave down.
Until it was dragged away for a long time, the stupid slave's screams still retreated in front of the tunnel: "Why ......?"
Everyone was silent, none of them dared to squeak, and obediently continued to pay the spirit stones, it seems that only by putting the spirit stones and ores together and letting the adults ask for advice and distinguish them, the adults will be like a spring breeze to you.
But apart from the basic tasks, who has so many spirit stones to ask the adults for advice.
After a while, the snake head, the fat king, the old roe deer, and a middle-aged slave with a gloomy look also walked out, glanced at Xu You fiercely, and began to pay today's task, and then stood in the resting slave team, muttering something in a low voice.
Xu You sat with his eyes closed all the time, seemingly not noticing the arrival of the four people.
Half an hour later, most of the slaves came out and paid the spirit stones.
After counting the numbers, the bearded man showed a satisfied expression, put the spirit stone into the storage bag, and prepared to turn around and leave. After a while, someone would bring food and drink to the slaves, and after twelve hours, they would go underground and continue mining.
"Lord An, please stay, we have something to report to you. Suddenly, the head of the snake stepped forward and saluted him.
"What's the matter?" the bearded man was stunned, then frowned.
He didn't like anything to happen in the underground veins, because once something happened or there was chaos, it would mean that the output of spirit stones might be affected, and he would also be criticized and even punished by the high-ranking monks of the tribe.
Whoever provokes a disturbance must be severely punished, even if it is a direct death.
"Lord An, a new batch of slaves has recently arrived, and one of the new slaves is dissatisfied with the tribe, so he deliberately provoked trouble in the underground veins, and instigated other slaves to make trouble together, attacked and harassed our old man, causing chaos, so that we should have produced more than twice as many spirit stones, but only less than half of them have been made, in order to return a peace underground, to ensure that we can mine normally and comfortably, and contribute to the tribe, please also dispose of this person. ”
The head of the snake said in a deep voice, his voice was not hurried or slow, so that everyone could hear it clearly.
These words were the ideas he came up with after discussing them with the Fat King and a few others, and the purpose was to use the hands of the monks of the Weishan tribe to suppress Xu You.
Aren't you very good at fighting? Can you beat the adults of the Weishan tribe?
As for whether these words are true or not, it doesn't matter, there are huge slaves, and the four major forces are working together, even if they know that the Dao is infinite, the monks of the Weishan tribe will give them face.
After all, for a group of powerful old slaves and new slaves, everyone knows which side is important, even if it is for the sake of balance, they will choose to sacrifice the weaker side.
And Xu You is just a new slave, who can speak for him?
"My lord, we have also seen with our own eyes, this slave is not at ease, inciting trouble, although the four of us usually have a suspicion, but after all, we are all from the Weishan tribe, so naturally we can't sit idly by, so we will report to you as soon as we come up. The old roe deer's eyes flashed, and he walked out and whispered.
The Fat King and Fu Qiang glanced at each other, and also walked out, and said in unison: "Please uphold justice, this slave has indeed interfered with everyone's mining, and if it is not cleaned up, I am afraid that there will be no peace." ”
"New slave, who is this person? The bearded man looked surprised, and then sneered.
The eyes of the slaves instantly looked at Xu You, just now many people had already seen this young man beating the snake head group, obviously, this is the snake head uniting the fat king and they want to retaliate.
Some of the slaves who just came up didn't see the scene of Xu You's bribery, and their eyes were full of pity when they looked at Xu You, this guy can beat him, but who made him offend the leaders of the four powerful gangs, and they can clean you up with a little tricks.
The slaves of the snakehead gang looked at Xu You even more viciously, they were not lightly beaten, and they hoped to see this young man punished on the spot, or simply killed on the spot, that was when they felt the coolest.
"My lord, this is this slave. The snake head, the fat king and the other four pointed at Xu You and said in unison.
In fact, without them pointing at it, the bearded man had already seen Xu You in everyone's eyes, and his brows suddenly furrowed.
Xu You also opened his eyes, but he didn't speak, but looked as usual, just bowed slightly to the beard.
"How many of you are sure that he is fanning the flames underground and disrupting the order of mining?" the bearded man glanced at Xu You, then at the four of them, and suddenly smiled.
The snake head and the others glanced at each other, and suddenly felt that something was wrong, and Lord An's attitude seemed to be a little incomprehensible......
However, the plan has been implemented, and no matter how wrong it is, it can only go on hard.
"Yes, Lord An, it's him, this person went to the mine on the first day, he behaved extremely blindly, and he also relied on force to beat a lot of my people, if he was lawless, how could my Weishan tribe tolerate him. The snake head looked at Xu You coldly and said. (To be continued......)
