Chapter 363 Talking about the first slave
The old man may not say much about other things. The things he cares about are limited, and "Thousand Grains of Gold" is exactly one of them. And the old man's heart still accounts for a large proportion. Just look at him running far away to search for the desolate place.
If Shao Xuan wanted it again, no matter what he said, even if he fought directly, the old man would rather die than agree. One thousand pills were his final concession.
"I will use other things to make up for it. I don't have much stuff on hand now, so I can't give it to you. In this way, if you have time in the future, go to the royal city and report my name, I will give it to you whatever you want." The old man said and handed Shao Xuan a small copper knife like a shrinking sickle, "I'll give it to you. If you go to the royal city, you can take this out and take you to find me."
Royal City?
Shao Xuan was stunned, looked up and took the knife, looking at the old man: "What is your full name?"
"I am Jiju!"
Ji? Shao Xuan heard that it was the noble slave owners of the Wang family. Many of the noble slave owners in the royal city had the surname Ji. They are now the slave owners with the most land. The royal family of Ji was transformed from people from the Ji tribe in the past. Later, the Ji tribe gathered all the other five large tribes, and "Ji" was the surname used by people from the Ji tribe.
A long time ago, on this land, the tribes discovered another method of using fire. Some tribes became slave owners and established city-states, while the other part still maintained the appearance of the tribe.
"Did you always enslave a lot of slaves?" Shao Xuan asked, putting the divided grains handed over by Jiju into a skin bag.
Since he is the slave owner with the largest land, there should be many slaves working under his command. However, Ji Ju's answer is not the case.
"There are many slaves. After all, I have many lands and I have to take care of them. However, there is only one slave to be enslaved." Ji Ju said this with pride on his face.
The difference between ordinary slaves and enslaved slaves is similar to the wild beasts raised in the Yanjiao tribe and the wild beasts engraved. There is a difference between relatives and distantness. Shao Xuan found out some on the way, so he was not surprised at this, but was a little surprised that Ji Ju actually enslaved only one slave.
"That must be a very powerful slave." Shao Xuan said.
"Naturally, 'Yellow Land' is a very good slave, who can help me take good care of the fields." Speaking of this, Jiju missed his slave a little.
"Yellow Earth? How do you give people this name?" Shao Xuan asked.
"This one is very good, I'll pick it up in person!" Ji Ju looked dissatisfied with Shao Xuan's question, "Also, who said 'Yellow Land' is a human?"
"What is it?" Shao Xuan was really curious now. A slave owner of such an old age only enslaved one slave, and the only slave was not a human being.
Jiju said proudly: "Moo—"
Shao Xuan: "...moo? Ah?"
"Yes! Do you think this slave is particularly good?! I enslaved it when it was only a little bit, and it was the one who took care of a large area of fields in my hand." Ji Ju smiled so hard that his chrysanthemums bloomed.
"I really want to see if I have the chance." Shao Xuan said.
When talking about his love slave, the old man's depression just now dissipated a lot. He thought he was as wise as a torch, and his smile did not stop. He shifted his attention from a thousand grains of gold to his yellow cow, and Jiju said a lot.
"I tell you, Shao Xuan, if you want to enslave a slave in the future, you must pay attention to the first slave, because the first slave is likely to be the most loyal one and the one with the closest connection with your consciousness. No matter how good other slaves are, they will always be a little bit worse. This is the common feature of slavery. Therefore, our slave owners are very cautious when choosing the first slave. Some people may not even enslave a slave until middle age." Ji Ju also mentioned the topic of slavery. Seeing that Shao Xuan helped him so much, he was in a good mood to find a plant suspected to be a thousand gold grains, so he said this to Shao Xuan.
"Actually, many slave owners know that you may not be the ones in your tribe. Of course, your tribes are not very interested in slavery, and the possibility of successful slavery is not high. This is the trick that cannot be mastered." Ji Ju said.
Hearing Ji Ju's words, Shao Xuan had a strange expression on his face and asked, "Is the first slave to be enslaved very important?"
"It's extremely important!" Ji Ju said affirmatively.
"I have to choose from thousands of choices?" Shao Xuan asked again.
"good!"
"Can't enslave it at will?"
"Breaking a fool!"
Ji Ju reminded Shao Xuan with concern: "How can we enslave it at will?! Our ancestors once did not know that the first slave was the most special, so they did not pay attention to it, so they betrayed more slaves. The slaughter of slaves caused their own characteristics and strengths to be dispersed, they were not loyal enough, and their consciousness connection was not tight enough. Therefore, the slaves are the most important, not the more important ones, especially the first slave."
Knowing that the situation here is different from that in the desert, Shao Xuan did not ask too much, but was just the first slave... He was embarrassed to tell Ji Ju that he actually had a slave. The first slave enslaved a beetle pushing a dung ball, and he still used it as an experiment.
No wonder the blue beetle was so loyal. Shao Xuan could clearly feel the current living state of the beetle. Although he couldn't know what it was doing now, he could be sure that Sapphire is living a good life now and is strong and does not need Shao Xuan to worry too much.
After talking for a long time, Jiju realized that tribes may not be interested in slavery and slavery. Many tribes are generally xenophobic, especially those from large tribes. It is said that even if a person from outside is found as a companion, tribes need to be reviewed repeatedly, and if the review is passed, they may not be accepted immediately.
"Your tribe has many people. By the way, which tribe is from you?" Ji Ju kept forgetting to ask Shao Xuan this question.
"Yanjiao Tribe." Shao Xuan said. On the way to accompany Jiju, he heard Jiju talk about tribes. One of them mentioned Yanjiao, but not much. Jiju had a limited understanding of Yanjiao Tribe, which was not considered hostile, but just a bad impression. No matter what, when he heard Jiju mention Yanjiao Tribe, Shao Xuan was very happy.
"Which one?!" Hearing Shao Xuan's answer, Ji Ju wanted to clean his ears.
"Yanjiao." Shao Xuan said solemnly.
"...Return those thousand grains back to me!" Jiju reached out to rob, "Aren't you Yanjiao people hunting? How could you take good care of these thousand grains?!"
Although the Yanjiao tribe has fewer people to go to the royal city, it can be remembered once or twice that in Jiju's impression, Yanjiao people are very strong, and they can hold a few bears and throw them away. They are also rude and violent. Every time Yanjiao people go to the royal city, they can always knock out a few nobles, and are listed as objects of rejection by the six nobles. However, Yanjiao people have indeed come out in recent years. The last time Jiju saw Yanjiao people was when he was young, and the younger generation may not have seen them.
"We Yanjiao people can also farm!" Shao Xuan argued. Yanjiao history has recorded many planting matters, and it is impossible that even a single land cannot be planted well.
"That's a big deal!"
Jiju now regrets it very much, but unfortunately, the grains given out can't be collected if they want to.
After the robbery failed, Jiju gave up. Fortunately, his focus was not here now, so he had to go back quickly and bring people back to dig up the plants with thousands of gold. The royal city is not close to here.
Without moving forward, Jiju separated from Shao Xuan.
"By the way, do you always remember where the Yanjiao tribe is?" Shao Xuan asked before parting.
