Chapter 12 The White Slaves
"Gru, this is your salary, fifteen pence."
"Thank you, thank you sir."
"Ato, this is yours, twelve pence. You are not as hard as Gru's work this week, so you have to work hard."
"Hahahahaha!"
"Uh, hehe, yes, sir, I will work harder."
For every working person, the happiest day is definitely the day when the salary is paid, and it would be even better if there is a bonus. This feeling is the same even in the American continent three hundred years ago. After these white people found that Xiao Lin really fulfilled his promise and gave the excellent pounds as their salary, and these people's hearts really settled down. They smiled happily, not knowing where to put their hands.
A person's basic salary is only ten pence, but some people do well, so they naturally have more bonuses. The most one, who got a full twenty pence, made those who didn't get much bonus envious. They all made up their minds to work hard in the future and strive to get more bonuses. In fact, originally, they had no place to use pounds, but Xiao Lin took two days to build a convenience store, referring to the prices in the 18th century.
The convenience store is not big, and there are only a few products at present. Although the cheap suits, skirts and children's clothing purchased by Wei Xiao are all shoddy and low-end goods in the 21st century, only the poor will buy them. However, in the 18th century, the styles of these clothes were still very beautiful, with novel styles and bright colors, and there will be no situation where one side has long sleeves and short sleeves. A suit is twenty-five pence, a set of women's clothing, including skirts, and a set of children's clothing costs between five pence and fifteen pence.
In addition to clothes, there are also some daily medicines, such as heat-clearing, disinfecting, stopping diarrhea, and treating colds. A box of medicines ranges from three to ten pennies. In addition, there are many convenience foods and daily necessities, selling more than ten to ten pennies. These things make everyone very envious. They stare at the convenience store all day long, preparing to spend money when they get the money. At this time, after receiving the salary, everyone hurried to the convenience store, fearing that they would not be able to buy what they needed.
That night, Xiao Lin recycled a full 150 pence. The best sold was Coca-Cola, which costs three yuan a bottle in the supermarket now. They didn't know Chinese characters and thought it was coffee or wine. But after a bite, everyone fell in love with this delicious drink. Three bottles of penny, twelve bottles per piece, a full ten pants, and a pool of food was consumed. They burped one by one, but they still didn't want to change the water to drink.
Xiao Lin smiled helplessly. Fortunately, he kept half of it. Tonight, he made coke chicken wings for pearls. Not enough, and a big thing happened in the camp the next morning. On the day of paying, everyone bought a bottle of beer more or less, and drank a little, and his vigilance was not that high. Especially those Eagle Tribe warriors who were responsible for not surrendering and not surrendering and captives, but in the end, a young man ran out. Logically speaking, their daily food was not enough to make people run out. Xiao Lin investigated and found that they saved their rations, which allowed him to have enough energy to escape.
These people were on the verge of dying, and they were still resolute, and in the end, the young man was discovered. It was not because of the timely search that he did not run far away. However, this man was extremely unlucky. Not long after he ran out, he was attacked by a jaguar. He only had a single piece of clothing on his body, and his weapon was a sharpened wooden board. He had not eaten enough to escape from the tiger's mouth. When he found him, his whole body had been almost eaten, leaving only a head that died with his eyes open.
When they came back with their heads, the remaining ten people who fought stubbornly collapsed completely. They kept shouting the name "Tony" and asked those who defected, and then they realized that Tony was their previous leader. He was also the young master of the Adams family, and the Adams family seemed to be a knight family that had been passed down for a long time. Those ten people seemed to be servants of the Adams family from their grandfather's generation, so they were so loyal.
However, as soon as Tony Adams died, they directly said they would surrender to Shawlin. There was no way. If Tony was still alive, even if they died, their families would be treated well by the Adams family, but once Tony died, they would not be able to survive. The news came that even if it wasn't for them, they would not be forgiven by the Adams family, and their families would be demoted to slaves. In this case, why bother fighting with Shawlin for the Adams family who was destined to kill them.
These ten people are amazing, they are all precious talents of this era. Five are veterans who have been in the past. Not only are they rich in combat experience and strong in combat, but they are also good at training soldiers and commanding wars. One is a surgeon. Although it is not worth mentioning to Xiao Lin, who has experienced modern medical skills, the camp's infirmary can also be established. Two financial staff members are not inferior to those who have learned accounting. A groom is good at feeding horses and repairing and manufacturing horse carriages. It is very useful for camps where there are only bicycles now. A big butler is responsible for handling all kinds of debris. He has only managed the food, drinking, and urinating of 300 people before.
However, let’s not talk about them for now. There is one thing that Shawlin must pay attention to. Tony Adams was killed by a leopard just over a thousand meters away from the camp. This means that there are already large and fierce carnivorous beasts wandering around the camp. This is the worst news for a camp that has not yet been built. To guard against these extremely agile beasts, it is not possible to rely on the fence alone. At least a wall made of four-meter-high giant wood. Moreover, even if there are, there must be always guarding against beasts that break in and hurt people.
During the day, adults go out to work, and there are only women left in the camp with the elderly and children. These people have no resistance to beasts. Don’t think that beasts will not come when they see too many people. You must know that the beasts here have not been killed by humans at this time. In the wild, more are their territory. At night, it will be even more dangerous. Everyone should go to bed. As soon as they fall asleep, the beasts come in, which is even more terrible.
In order to ensure that the camp can develop well, Xiao Lin knew that all these beasts must be killed. Otherwise, people would not be able to work hard if they were panic all day long.
