Chapter 1486: 1487Strict rules
"I'm not an adult, I'm just an electrician, responsible for installing lights and sockets in your village." He pointed to the socket box on the wall and explained, "Don't call me an adult, because others will hear you. You’re going to laugh at me.”
He is a civilian in Fengjiang. He goes to work every day to repair electrical facilities and so on. Now he is on a business trip, and he has a lot of field work allowance, and his life is very comfortable.
But he is really far away from the so-called adults: above him there is the team leader, and above him there is the captain, the captain... The person in charge of the captain is called the director of the electrical company, and then there is the deputy director , Director.
In his opinion, the director of the Electric Power Bureau is old enough, but he knew that his director would not even be able to get a front row seat at the Fengjiang City Government meeting.
Those sitting on the rostrum are probably the ones who are qualified to be called adults, right? However, it was not popular in the Tang Dynasty to call someone "sir", and they all addressed their job title directly.
For example, call the mayor, the district chief, etc. There are factory directors in factories, and there are section leaders in railway sections. In short, few people are called adults. This title makes the electrician in front of him very uncomfortable.
"Also, those orcs and goblins who are building roads outside are slaves. They dare not make trouble. If they dare to leave the station at night, they are absconding, which is a big deal." After explaining that he was not an adult, The electrician continued to speak to the woman.
He is very familiar with those orcs. Two or three years ago, orc labor slaves helped with the power line construction in Fengjiang.
These workers are very timid, they dare not speak loudly to humans, and they respond to all human requests. There are even many orc catwomen who follow these labor teams and do some service jobs... to make human money.
To be honest, compared to serving orcs, humans make a lot of money. The pretty orc cat girl can easily get rewards from the foreman or other humans in the camp.
There is no way, these people rarely go home, and they also have this need. Anyway, cat girls come with their own "reproductive isolation", and they pay for it with great peace of mind.
Of course, there are very few cat ladies in such poor places. They have also figured out the rules and know where the easiest place to make money is.
Generally, these cat ladies will be concentrated on the fringes of the core areas of the Tang Empire, where there are many jobs, many opportunities to make money, and many people who have never seen the world. If you go further out, you are too poor to spend money, and if you go further in, the economy is too developed, men no longer pursue this kind of entertainment.
There are various clubs and money-making dens there, and the dishes in any restaurant are more expensive than the money these cat-eared ladies earn from selling their bodies. They don’t dare to go to such a scary place to find trouble.
“Don’t worry, it’s no problem.” The electrician was very sure that the orcs and goblins camping in tents outside were very safe, so he comforted the woman.
Although he didn’t know what the rules of these people were, he had come into contact with these goblin orcs and they were indeed “inferior”.
That is the true humility. Only when these orcs call him "sir" will he really accept it calmly: during construction, any request he makes, the other party will nod and agree, and he will not even dare to refuse...
In fact, the electricians didn’t know that the Tang Empire’s strict management of these slave laborers who might cause social security and stability was terrifying. It was impossible for Tang Mo to be humane or charitable to these orcs and goblins. He never showed mercy to the coolies except providing them with adequate food and giving them some extra supplies.
According to the management methods that have been used since the Mirage Bear era, workers who leave the team will be treated as absconding and will be killed without mercy! If one worker absconds, a group of workers will be together; if the worker commits a crime, he will be repaid a hundred times.
To put it bluntly, it means killing, killing ten times or a hundred times! Therefore, the slaves have learned to supervise each other. If anyone has any bad ideas, the workers themselves will kill them: after all, workers fight among themselves to death and injury and miss the work schedule. Participants are punished with twenty whippings and one hundred labor penalties. day.
Under such a harsh system, all workers are in danger, so of course it is impossible to cause any problems. Just kidding, if they work honestly, they can go to the island to enjoy life in ten years. What idiot would ask for trouble?
What's more, even if it kills a lot of people, the Tang Empire can accept almost unlimited slaves from the Orc Empire, so individual laborers are extremely cheap. loss? nonexistent.
So, on both sides of the road at the entrance of the village, under the newly compacted roadbed, in tents, the orcs were sharing their food.
The smell of instant noodle ingredients was in the lunch box, and the red plastic skin of the ham sausage was torn open in his hand - although the food of the orcs was not good, it was definitely not bad either.
They ate very happily because tomorrow they were going to connect the road to the camp where the troops were stationed. Once they get there, it will be great. The adults in the army will provide them with hot meals.
That is something more delicious than instant noodles. If you are lucky, you can even eat pork or beef. There is warm soup and fluffy and glutinous rice...it is so delicious!
Thinking about those things will make the orcs start drooling. Humans are so good to them. They provide them with food and clothing. If they do well, they can be promoted to small bosses. They are fair, just and open. It is simply better than The Orc Empire is a hundred times better.
How could they cause trouble in a place like this? Just kidding... On such a good day, you won't even change the position of the priest in the orc village, right?
Even, they are afraid of those humans in their bones. Because the manager of the entire orc labor force is a human being, as long as he gives an order, countless orc heads will fall to the ground.
The blood of the orcs who cannot resist temptation and cause rebellion will be sprinkled all over the roads, their heads will be piled into hills, and their corpses will be refined into fertilizer... Their souls... will be damned forever! This was not said by the Tang people, but by their orc chief priest, the great shaman. Before they come, these people will repeatedly warn and use the most vicious curses to intimidate the orcs who are going to work as laborers in the Tang Dynasty.
If the food wasn't so good, if they didn't get a lot of rest, if the clothes weren't very comfortable... I'm afraid these orcs really thought they were here to do hard labor.
But after coming to the Tang Empire, they found that apart from being inferior to others, they only needed to work to survive. This kind of treatment was not available in the Orc Empire.
Hence...slaves will be slaves, and workers will be workers...it doesn't matter.
