Chapter 61 Selection
"May I have your name?"
Three hundred young and strong slaves were standing against him. At this time, Xiao Ming asked a young man who was standing in the middle and was a little thin.
Although this young man is thin, he is the most energetic among them. He is about 1.7 meters tall and has big eyes. He keeps looking at the surrounding environment and looks very clever.
"Report to the master, my name is Lu Tong." The young man said.
At this time, Zhao Long shouted: "In front of you is the Seventh Prince of the Great Yu Kingdom, Your Highness, Your Highness, You should call Your Highness."
In Zhao Long's opinion, the term master is a disrespect to Xiao Ming.
Lu Tong looked surprised and was bought from the grassland. They set off from the sea and arrived here directly. They didn't know where this was. At this time, they said surprise: "Your Highness, the bastard slave is from Cangzhou. Three years ago, the barbarians captured Cangzhou City, and the bastard slaves were taken away by the barbarians."
At the same time, the vast majority of slaves became turbulent, and they all said, "Is this Qingzhou? We are back.", "I'm finally home.", "Great."
Zhao Long's face turned red at this time. The destruction of Cangzhou City was an unforgettable humiliation for Qingzhou soldiers. The slaves in front of him were the fiefdoms that were taken away by the barbarians three years ago. He couldn't help but feel ashamed.
Xiao Ming also blushed a little. Although this was the blame for his predecessor, he had to take it himself at this time.
He had a sudden inspiration and said, "After going through a lot of hardships, I finally found his people. Zhao Long and Zhao Hu, have not yet untied their shackles and their shackles."
Lu Tong's eyes turned red and tears fell like rain. He knelt on his face and touched the ground with his face. He picked up the loess under his feet and cried loudly, "Dad, mother, I'm back, I'm finally back."
"Wuwu..." The other slaves also started to cry at this time. The wanderer returned home and was still in love with the scenery, not to mention that they were enslaved for three years and suffered all the torture.
Chen Wenlong was also ashamed and always taciturn. He said, "Your Highness, they are all people in my Qingzhou. The official asked Your Highness to re-create their household registration for them and exempt them from their slave status."
"This is natural." Xiao Ming said to Lu Tong: "Get up, since you are the people of Qingzhou and used to be free, I will return you to your freedom from today. I will give you silver and household registration. You will return your hometown separately."
After his words fell, these slaves did not mean to leave, but looked at me and I looked at you, looking at you, looking at you, looking at you in a daze.
Lu Tong stood up at this time and said, "Your Highness, my parents were killed by barbarians in order to help me escape from the grassland. Now the lowly slaves are homeless. Most of them are like me. At that time, the barbarians plundered and killed countless people in Cangzhou, and few people could still find all their families."
Xiao Ming was silent for a while. A poor and weak country would only cause the people to suffer. Countless history has proved this.
Thinking of this, he bowed and said, "Three years ago, although the generals guarding the city abandoned the city and fled, I also have an unshirkable responsibility. Here, I apologize to you."
"Your Highness, this..." Lu Tong and others were shocked and knelt down quickly, "Why should the gull slaves be the tribute to you?"
When Zhao Long and Zhao Hu saw Xiao Ming like this, they looked at each other and a strange color flashed in their eyes.
Xiao Ming asked his hand to help Lu Tong up and said, "The barbarian soldiers are strong and strong, but our Qingzhou is poor and weak. Cangzhou is responsible for the loss of Cangzhou. However, it is still because our Qingzhou soldiers are not strong enough and the horses are not strong enough. I have never forgotten the shame of three years ago. Now I have worked hard to revitalize the fief and protect the safety of the people in the future. Now I am employed. Since you have nowhere to go, you can be willing to follow me Xu Tu Dafa."
Lu Tong and others had nowhere to go, and the young man was originally enthusiastic. Xiao Ming's strong words immediately made him feel excited. He said, "If Your Highness does not abandon me, I would like to be in front of you."
Xiao Ming looked at the others, some were as energetic as Lu Tong, while others seemed to have other things and were a little worried.
He thought it was impossible for everyone to lose their parents like Lu Tong, and they were helpless. He said, "I am willing to welcome me who stays with Lu Tong. If there is anyone who wants to go home, I will not force myself. I will give it as money."
"Thank you, Your Highness." Several voices rang.
Xiao Ming said to Chen Wenlong at this time: "You go and ask other slaves. If they belong to the people of Qingzhou, they will give them freedom. Those who need money will be given money. If you want to stay in the workshop to do things, you will pay the monthly wages according to the craftsman."
"Yes." Chen Wenlong nodded and walked into the workshop. At the same time, Xiao Ming also asked them to follow Chen Wenlong for the young people who wanted to go back.
One-third of the three hundred people left in an instant, and two hundred people remained. At this time, they all looked at Xiao Ming and waited for the order.
Now they are homeless, but Xiao Ming is willing to take them in as the prince. This is undoubtedly a good thing for the world to lose money. It is a hundred times better than suffering on the grassland and being killed at any time.
Looking at the remaining 200 people, Xiao Ming said, "Since you have chosen to stay, you will be my king's people in the future. This time I will select you to teach you some special skills. From today on, you will follow me back to Qingzhou and live in the yard next to the Qi Palace. From tomorrow on, I will teach you some skills."
"Yes, Your Highness." Lu Tong and others bowed and said.
Xiao Ming nodded and asked Zhao Long and Zhao Hu to take them back. He was not worried that these people would be happy to be craftsmen.
Compared with the identity of a slave, this has been improved a lot. Moreover, with the future improvement of the craftsman status in Qingzhou, he believes that these teenagers will be more happy with their identities.
This time, in order to cultivate a group of technical talents, Xiao Ming also spent a lot of money and specially bought a yard next door, for the sake of confidentiality and safety.
Because after opening, the yard and the royal mansion built an alley, there was only a door separated from the middle.
After Zhao Long and Zhao Hu sent Lu Tong and others over, they immediately went to the Governor's Office, and then twenty more fully armed elite guards were added to the royal palace.
Although these 200 people were arranged by Xiao Ming, Zhao Long and Zhao Hu were still more alert for Xiao Ming's safety. If these 200 people mutiny, it would be a significant threat to the royal palace, just in case.
Xiao Ming did not object to this. He did not think that he could tame these teenagers from now on just by saying a few words.
The specific qualities of these people need to be observed slowly in the future. After all, sometimes in his position, you must be more careful. If these people can be down-to-earth in the future, it will naturally be the best.
If he is trampled on others and harms the interests of Qingzhou, he will never be lenient at that time. Since he is in the imperial family, he will always remember that he must not be a Virgin.
Because this will not only kill oneself, but also kill millions of people in the fiefdom.
