Although Friday is a native, his brain is not stupid. Compared with other natives, his intelligence level should be a bit higher than other natives. In addition, he usually spends more time with Xiao Feng. Xiao Feng teaches by words and deeds and only rests.
Ah, this guy's level of civilization is more than one dimension higher than other natives.
Therefore, he often took the opportunity of inspections and patrols to get close to these Toulon people. At first, the Toulon people were wary of him, but after contacting him for a period of time, they found that he was a supervisor who was very fair to people and things, and
They would not treat them differently from the natives just because they were from Toulon, and their attitude towards them was considered kind. In addition, this guy was a loyal dog-legger to the mysterious mage, so he gradually opened his heart to him.
.
Through communicating with them on Friday, I got to know roughly the living conditions of these guys in the Toulon Empire, or under the rule of Duke Ducati.
Many of these people were not professional soldiers. Before the invasion of the orcs, many of them had their own jobs. For example, some were tailors, some were blacksmiths, and some were herdsmen, but most of them were farmers.
In the territory of Duke Ducati, although they are free citizens, their life is not easy. In addition to paying taxes to the Duke every year, they also have to participate in corvee service and participate in the construction of public facilities in the Duke's territory. In addition, they have to participate in
Militia training, the burden of life is not light anyway, working hard every year is just a living.
Once a war breaks out, they have to be drafted into the army. When the situation is good, if the war is won, they can get some spoils. But if the situation is not good, such as this time when the orc army invades, they will be used more as cannon fodder.
Because the social class in the Toulon Empire where they lived was very stable, or the brainwashing work was done very well, even if they were dissatisfied with their lives, they did not dare to complain, let alone have disobedient thoughts. After all,
Peasant uprisings also broke out in the history of the Toulon Empire.
But the final result of those rebels was often to be annihilated by the private armies of lords who swarmed across the country. The captured rebels were either skinned or nailed to wooden frames. The most cruel torture was to directly
Sitting alive on a sharpened wooden stake, the own gravity causes the tip of the wooden stake to enter the human body from the buttocks, torturing the person to death. It is impossible to ask for pleasure. The method is similar to the ancient Roman Empire in Xiao Feng's world.
And the Toulon Empire relies on such brutal thunderous methods to intimidate all the lower-class people in the country. I will give you a meal and a drink of soup, and you will be satisfied. If you want to rebel, this will be the end, so even if they
There is a lot of dissatisfaction and resentment in life, but I don’t dare to have any thoughts of resistance.
The most outrageous thing is that once a war breaks out, everyone must answer the call of the lord to join the army, but the lord does not even issue weapons and basic equipment. Not only do they have to prepare their own weapons, they even have to bring their own dry food.
Therefore, many of these Toulon people are not satisfied with their original lives, and they are no longer satisfied with their lives.
Although you are now working like a slave under Xiao Feng, at least this tribe can treat everyone fairly and justly, and will not treat you differently because of whether you are a Toulon or a native.
If you work hard, you will be beaten, and if you perform well in Toulon, you will also receive rewards.
And it can also ensure that everyone has food to eat in the winter. Although it may not be full, but at least they will not starve to death. What is there to complain about?
Now that the Toulon Empire no longer exists, and when everyone is in panic like a bereaved dog, they are all content to have such a place to live and settle down.
It is this kind of living situation that makes these Toulon people gradually let go of their original pride. Except for more than 20 professional soldiers, other Toulon people have gradually begun to accept and are willing to integrate with the natives.
Already.
After listening to the report on Friday, Xiao Feng was very satisfied with the result. These Toulon people must be civilized to a higher level after all. As long as they voluntarily integrate into the tribe, it will have a great influence on the future development of the tribe.
It has great benefits, especially the improvement of productivity.
This is crucial for Xiao Feng, a big 'slave owner'!
"Very good, very good. You did a very good job on Friday. I am very satisfied."
Xiao Feng smiled and patted Friday's shoulder, and handed him a bottle of Coke. Friday was simply flattered by his master's intimate attitude. He quickly lowered his head and wanted to kiss Xiao Feng's shoes, but Xiao Feng held him back.
he.
"You don't have to do this every time. Work hard. I will always see your results."
Friday's eyes were red. When he was in the tribe, he had always been in a state of confusion. He had no idea what life was. His goal every day when he opened his eyes was to survive in this world. But now with his master, he not only has food to eat and clothes to wear,
Being able to manage a tribe, he seemed to have gradually found the meaning of his existence for the first time.
Seeing that Friday was about to pee like a cat, Xiao Feng was a little moved and also found it funny, so he could only change the subject and ask.
"By the way, I asked you to select those with special skills among these Toulon people. Have you found them?"
"Well, after finding the master, let alone some of these Toulon people have special skills. For example, there are two blacksmiths who can make weapons, farm tools, saddles, and stirrups."
"Very good, prepare the place for them and let them start working. Melt some of the unused weapons that were captured from the orcs first and let them make some agricultural tools. Don't let them work alone. Let them
They brought some land out to let more people learn to blacksmith..."
Xiao Feng ordered to arrive on Friday. In fact, he can get all the iron tools needed here from the modern world, but after all, he can't always do this. It's okay when the tribe has a small number, but if the population exceeds tens of thousands, then all kinds of iron tools need to be used.
Growing iron weapons is an astronomical figure, and purchasing it from modern sources alone cannot solve the problem, especially weapons and armor, which must be solved by the indigenous people here.
Therefore, cultivating skilled workers is the key to future development for this tribe.
"There are also a few people who can make clothes. They can also process animal skins and make leather coats and leather boots. I have arranged for them to start working so that the people in the tribe don't have to wear those rawhide."
