Chapter 109 I am a villain!

The gains from this time were quite good. A total of 5 slaves were captured, all of which were men. Two of them were a little older and had a rough beard. The remaining three were relatively young, with only a little beard. At present, Hong Tao could only distinguish the ages of these Southeast Asians by their beard. They were originally thin and small, not easy to identify. In addition, they were long hair and beard. They were 20 years old, 30 years old, and 40 years old. They really couldn't tell, and they couldn't communicate.

"How to instruct me? I said, "Winbert, the slaves are still instructed? Come on, let Carl show you how to make them obedient and work! Mr. Ka, please, think about salary and going home, don't use a housekeeper to fool me, okay?" Hong Tao transported the five slaves back to Jinhe Camp overnight, without even opening the cabin. It was not until the next morning that Bo Jiao and Chen Qihong got them out. Each of them poured half a bowl of water, but they didn't loosen the tie. Wen Laoer and Huang Hai knew that Hong Tao was going to catch the slaves and came back. They said it during a meeting in Ximaozhou. But they didn't know what slaves were and how to use slaves, and they didn't expect Hong Tao to capture the slaves so soon, which was a little confused.

"First use iron chains to lock their necks into a string, and then use this as a baton. Whoever is not honest will give them a moment." Carl understood his situation very well. If he was disobedient, he would probably become a slave. Even if he could kill Hong Tao and escape by robbing the ship, where would he escape? He alone, without a chart or supplies, where could he escape? Moreover, for the issue of slaves, he did not have the thoughts in the minds of later generations. Except for the nobles, others were all slaves after being defeated, and they might become slaves after bankruptcy. To drive foreign slaves is honor, not a shame.

"Ah..." A wooden stick in Carl's hand hit one of the people's back. Although it was not too hard, it would hurt. None of the other four dared to come up to resist. They didn't dare to look at Carl, and they all lowered their heads and prayed that the next stick would not be their turn.

"This...this...this...how can you do it?" In addition to being very stubborn when building a ship, Wen Laoer is usually a kind old man and has a good mind. He disagrees with the vicious and vicious person like Carl, but he cannot blame him.

"Winbert, think about them, and their children. If you want them to have their own land, you have to torture others, kill others, and rob others... Half of our land in the Song Dynasty was robbed by the Jin people. In fact, the land in the Song Dynasty was also robbed from others. Whoever is strong will be robbed more, and whoever is weak will be robbed. There is no way. If you want your children and grandchildren to be robbed, then I will send them back. In fact, what Carl demonstrated is only a special situation method. If they want to work honestly, not be lazy, and not escape.

Run away, don’t plot against us, who will beat them without any trouble! Isn’t it tiring to hit people? What do you think, Uncle Huang?” Hong Tao actually doesn’t want to be a slave owner, but the problem is where the labor force comes from if he is not a slave owner. Without labor, he can’t develop himself. If he can’t develop himself, he can’t help the Southern Song Dynasty court dealing with the Mongolians. For this lofty ideal and the happiness of all mankind, the subtle details should be ignored. As for whether it is for all mankind, only ghosts know that history is written by successful people, the process can be ignored, and the result is important.

Before big trouble, there is no focus on the small matters! Those who achieve big things do not focus on the small matters! The ancestors of China have made many excuses for themselves, and each one is full of excuses. Unfortunately, after talking for a long time, it is all about the actual content, that is, you have to take advantage of yourself, and others suffer! So let’s say, whether in ancient times or modern times, or whoever is talking to you, please grasp a principle, that is, listen to the essence of the content, and don’t listen to those nonsense nonsense. Unfortunately, there are not many people who can do this, otherwise the phone frauds and pyramid schemes will have no market.

"We are just kind to them. The work here is not heavy. Maybe they will get used to it in a few days..." Although Huang Hai didn't say it, his idea was similar to Wen Laoer. He suddenly let an honest fisherman become a slave owner. The jump was too big and no one could adapt.

"Hey... you forced me..." Hong Tao almost spit out blood after hearing Huang Hai's words! If you are kind to the slaves, they won't hate you? Even if you call them your father every day, they should hate you.

This problem is unsolvable. From the moment you capture them, you will be an enemy that will never end. If you are kind-hearted, don’t be slave owners. When you said that there were slaves to work for you, what did you mean? It seems that it would be impossible not to give some great excitement. Hong Tao took a crossbow with a string from Huang Tao, raised his hand and aimed at the person who had just been hit by Carl. Since he had been unlucky once, he would just be unlucky to the end.

"Tao Yizi! You..." Hong Tao's behavior was too unexpected. Before anyone could react, he had already pulled the crossbow and the trigger was nailed to the man's forehead accurately. Because it was an iron crossbow arrow, it penetrated directly.

"There are not many steel crossbows, don't use them easily in the future... Are you all at ease now? If we killed them, this person might be their uncle or grandfather. Now we and them will be enemies who will never die. If we didn't lock them and don't give them a chance to resist, or let them wipe your neck with a knife one day when you sleep. This person was not killed by me, but you forced him to death. He could have lived for a few more years... tied them up in the circumference first.

In the wall, when will the chains and collars be prepared, when will the work start? I only gave one meal a day before, who would eat more, who would shoot to death!" Looking at the group of people in a daze, and those sacred women running away with their faces, Hong Tao could only be a villain. Everyone wants to be a good person, who will be the person who left this character? Whether in ancient times or later generations, when talking about a certain bandit leader, how could the leader of the underworld be guilty of great evil? Can this not guilty of great evil shock me? Can you implement your own philosophy?

Since this day, when the people in the camp saw Hong Tao, they couldn't help but smile less, and they were hiding from him intentionally or unintentionally. Even Bozhu was a little cautious. Hong Tao didn't explain why he should do what he should do. The four slaves had only been tied for a day and a night, and put on the iron collars and chains made by Wen Laoer, and formed a string. Huang Hai was in charge of moving the cut trees in the forest. Two meals a day, and they ate similar to everyone. They could only sleep in a temporary shack when they were sleeping, without any extra houses for them to live in.

With the help of these four slaves, the construction of the camp was obviously much faster. Although these four slaves were thin and not very strong, they walked quickly with trees, especially when they saw Hong Tao being nearby, they almost started jogging. Hong Tao did not deliberately scare them. Killing people was just a forced one. He didn't want to see the people in the camp having too close contact with the slaves, at least not now. A good intention may not have a good result. Since he became a slave owner, don't expect to use kindness to influence the slaves. Slave owners and slaves are born enemies, and class contradictions are irreconcilable.

Time is the best teacher. After working for a few days, the people in the camp gradually adapted to being slave owners, and their fear of Hong Tao gradually faded. When they returned to their previous state, Hong Tao and Bo Jiao and Carl boarded the Predator again, and the target was still Manila Bay. This time, Hong Tao planned to catch medicine according to the prescription, exploring the coordinates of the coastline, while capturing more slaves. As long as there are single ships, not only fishing boats or merchant ships, they can fight. Those who catch them are slaves, don’t want to set up boats, and drag them back with the fishing boats that can be used. It’s not suitable to sail in the sea. It’s just right to be a riverboat for the camp. The gold and copper mines upstream will be developed sooner or later. At that time, there will definitely be no chance to transport by land. The waterway is the most convenient and fastest.

For a whole month, Hong Tao traveled along the coast of Luzon Island. The farthest thing was to the southern end of Palawan Island, close to the northern part of Balimantan Island, which was called Borneo in ancient times. However, the more you go south, the more lively the coastline was. You can often see ships of different sizes, including fishing boats, cargo boats, sailing boats and dragon boats. It would be difficult to catch slaves without knowing the truth. So Hong Tao planned to stop the slave hunting operation first, return to Ximaozhou Island to see the production of whale oil, and transport some food and livestock to the Jinhe Camp. It would not last long just by storing grain and hunting.

Jinhewan is now like a small village. Seven or eight high-foot wooden buildings stand sparsely in a circle of two-meter-high wooden walls. There are chicken coops and cow pens beside the wooden walls. Unfortunately, there is not a chicken or a cow. There is also a row of wooden houses in the corner of the yard near the river. It is a dormitory for slaves. It is full of beds that the Song people have never seen before, called upper and lower bunks. This was also invented by Hong Tao. He said that this would make full use of the space. What Hong Tao did not expect was that his small invention was criticized for shooting a slave with a crossbow arrow, and even Huanghai expressed dissatisfaction. What he meant was so big that why did he have to sleep on upper and lower bunks? Isn’t this intentional torture the slaves.
