Bringing The Farm To Live In Another World

Chapter 41 Oath

Those slaves are not stupid, and almost all of them can cook. When they were in the hands of other slave owners, every time it was time to eat, the supervisors under the slave owners would come from their ranks. Two people were randomly selected to cook, so these slaves were no strangers to cooking.

In addition, making rice is very simple, so these slaves soon filled all seven pots with rice. Zhao Hai took out several large copper basins and gave them to them to use as pot lids. use.

These marching stoves do not have special pot lids, and they do not need them. Everyone knows that even ordinary armies will not use these marching stoves. Only slaves use them, and for slaves, it is good to give them a bite to eat. Well, then you don’t care whether it tastes good or not.

But those slaves had never made soup. They didn't know how to make it. The food they had eaten at other slave owners was not as good as the food they had eaten at the Buda family. At other slave owners, sometimes, they You can only eat things like rice bran, or some moldy rice. It is precisely because of this that many slaves die on the mainland every day, but for slave owners, the death of slaves does not matter at all. What a great thing, just buy it.

So these slaves are now looking at those vegetables and fruit oil in a daze. Of course Juya understands how these slaves feel. After all, she was a commoner before, and she still knows some about some simple dishes.

Ju walked to an empty pot, picked up the fruit oil, and poured it into the pot. Zhao Hai paid serious attention to this fruit oil for the first time. The color of this fruit oil was slightly yellow and very clear. I heard that It seems to be squeezed from a fruit with a very high oil content. This fruit is grown in many places on the mainland, so the fruit oil is also very cheap.

After Ju waited for the oil to heat up, he put the vegetables in the pot and stir-fried briefly, then poured some water into the pot, and then threw in two pieces of salt. As long as the water was boiled, the soup would be ready.

This is the simplest soup, with almost no technical content, no condiments, and only a little bit of coarse salt. This is the best treatment for a slave.

On the mainland, salt is not cheap. Generally, nobles use refined clear salt. That kind of salt is very fine, similar to the refined salt on the earth. However, the coarse salt used by slaves is very cheap. Of course, there are also a lot of impurities.

But even so, except for the Buda family, these slaves can't eat salt every day. Other slaves mainly let them eat salt once every three days. Even if they are generous people, the average slave owner is a The slaves were given salt once a week, and not in large quantities.

Zhao Hai has been busy with things in space and the future development of the Black Wasteland these days, so he doesn't know much about the living conditions of these slaves. He doesn't feel anything wrong with what Ju is doing now. He thinks Every slave on the mainland lives like this. Maybe the slaves in their home live a little worse. After all, they don't have so many supplies for these Xu's use.

Looking at Ju making the simple soup, Zhao Hai couldn't help but sigh. Meg, who was standing next to him, asked in confusion: "What's wrong, young master? Is there any problem? Did they use too much salt? Do you want it?" Less?"

Zhao Hai glanced at Meg in confusion and said: "More? How come there is so much? They only use a little salt in such a big pot, how can it be so much? I was thinking that our Buda family is still too weak now. We can only let them eat such simple food, and when we have money in the future, we will definitely let them eat meat."

As soon as Zhao Hai finished speaking, he felt that everyone was looking at him a little wrongly. Those slaves looked at him as if they had seen a ghost, making Zhao Hai not sure what was going on.

He looked at Meg in confusion and whispered: "Meg, what's wrong? Did I say the wrong thing?"

Meg looked at Zhao Hai and couldn't help but sigh inwardly. He knew that although the Buda family had slaves in the past, Zhao Hai had never left the imperial capital and had no contact with those slaves. Naturally, he didn't know what those slaves were doing. She had to explain to Zhao Hai the living conditions of those slaves in a low voice.

Zhao Hai listened blankly. For a person who was born in the new society, grew up under the red flag, and caught up with the reform and opening up since birth, the life Meg mentioned was so far away from him. It was like Those who have experienced the old society will resonate with Peking operas such as The White-Haired Girl, but those born in the 1980s find it difficult to resonate with them because they have not had that experience. What is written in the book is in Xiangxi, that It is also something in books, how can it be compared with personal experience.

After Meg finished briefly talking about the living conditions of these slaves, Zhao Hai turned to look at these slaves, his eyes full of sympathy. He sighed and said: "Don't worry, everyone, I will do what I say, sooner or later. , I will let you eat meat, and eat it every day, every meal, until you get tired of it, I swear on the name of the Buda family."

Zhao Hai is a kind person. Although he was very otaku when he was on earth, all otakus are a little timid, and apart from their differences, they are also very kind people. Maybe their communication skills are not good. But that doesn't mean they are perverts. In fact, more otakus can't stand the darkness of this world, so they choose to shut themselves in their own world. Zhao Hai is such a person.

After arriving in Ark Continent, Zhao Hai's identity has changed. He is a noble, he has a territory, and he has more than a hundred slaves to support him. His words can determine the fate of these more than a hundred slaves. People's life and death gave Zhao Hai another sense of responsibility. He believed that it was his responsibility to make these people live better, so he was determined to develop his territory and said such words. .

Those slaves all knelt down on the ground in excitement, kowtowed to Zhao Hai and said, "Thank you, Master, for the reward!"

Although they have not gotten anything yet, Zhao Hai's words are enough. The nobles on the mainland have a very strange tradition. They do not swear easily. Even if they swear, they will not use themselves under normal circumstances. They swear in the name of the family, because even if they swear in the name of God, they will sometimes break the oath, but they will not break the oath made in the name of the family.

It is precisely because of that that those slaves believe Zhao Hai's words. They believe that the oath Zhao Hai swore in the name of his family will one day come true.

Meg opened her mouth, but didn't say anything. She had been managing these slaves these days. To be honest, she also sympathized with these slaves, so she did not object to what Zhao Hai said.

At this moment, Merlin's voice came: "Master, it's time to eat."

Zhao Hai nodded, turned to look at everyone, and then said to Meg, Ju and An: "Meg, Ju, An, let's go in to eat."

Ju and An originally wanted to stay here to eat, but when they saw Zhao Hai's appearance, they didn't say yes and followed them into the house, followed by wood and stone.

As soon as they entered the house, the slaves became more relaxed. Although Zhao Hai had always been very kind to them, to these slaves, Zhao Hai was always their master. With Zhao Hai here, they would You will feel uncomfortable.

Zhao Hai and others came to the house and took a look. Sure enough, Merlin had already made cakes and soup. Zhao Hai actually wanted to eat rice, but looking at Merlin's appearance, there was probably no hope for him today.

The square table in the room only had four chairs, but Zhao Hai took out three more from the warehouse, so that seven people could sit. Although the table was not as big as the table in the castle restaurant, it was enough for seven people to eat.

After Zhao Hai asked a few people to sit down, he took a knife and fork and started eating the cakes made by Merlin. In fact, he didn't want to use a knife and fork, but unfortunately, Merlin would not agree.

Not to mention, the cakes made in this way really have a unique flavor and the taste is pretty good. Zhao Hai and the others finished their dinner slowly. Merlin packed up everything. When they went outside, The slaves had all finished eating.

The marching stove was still there, but it was obvious that it had been cleaned. The slaves seemed to be well fed, and they were all sitting there, looking very lethargic.

Zhao Hai knew that people would feel sleepy after eating, and presumably these slaves were the same. Zhao Hai did not let them get up, but just glanced at the garbage on the ground and frowned.

This is his space. Although Zhao Hai is not mysophobic, he does not want the space to be dirty, but these things can only stay in the space now.

As soon as he saw the garbage, Zhao Hai couldn't help but take another look at the sky above the space. The space was still surrounded by fog and he couldn't see clearly. Fortunately, he didn't see any black smoke floating in the sky. It seemed that Burning a fire in space will have little impact on the space.

Zhao Hai turned to Mei Lin and said: "Grandma Mei Lin, I think you should rest in the house. They have just eaten now and they are sleepy, so let them rest."

Merlin glanced at the slaves and found that they seemed to be very lethargic, so he could only nod his head and said: "Okay, let's take a rest first, but we don't have to go into the house to rest, we can just rest outside. "

Zhao Hai said quickly: "Grandma Merlin, Meg, wood, stone, come into the house with me, I have something to show you." After that, he opened the door of the thatched cottage and entered the house.

Although Merlin and the others didn't know what Zhao Hai wanted to show them, they still followed him obediently. Merlin and the others knew that they didn't know as much about this space as Zhao Hai. In this space, they still listened to Zhao Hai for everything. as well.
