Chapter 179 Award

At the city gate connecting the inner and outer castles, there were two slaves standing, a man and a woman. The man looked to be in his twenties, the woman looked to be less than 20 years old, both of them were He has an ordinary appearance, nothing special about him.

When the two people saw Zhao Hai and the others coming out, they quickly knelt down and saluted Zhao Hai: "Master Wan'an."

Zhao Hai nodded, waved his hand and said: "Stand up and speak." After the two thanked them, they stood up, but they still bowed and looked trembling.

Although these slaves know that Zhao Hai is very kind, their continuous enslavement education makes them dare not be a little rude when they see Zhao Hai. If they can stand like this and return to Zhao Hai, they are already Very good. If the slave was just bought, he would never dare to stand because of Zhao Hai's words.

Looking at the two of them, Zhao Hai was not polite to them and just said: "Are you going to get married?"

The two of them bent even lower, and the male slave said tremblingly: "Yes, Master, we two want to get married, please ask Master to make it happen."

Zhao Hai nodded and said, "What are your names?"

The male slave immediately said: "Master, my name is Qi and her name is Xi."

Zhao Hai clicked the button, glanced at the two of them, and said: "Okay, very good, you can take the initiative to ask me to get married. This is very good. I will make it happen for you today. Grandpa Green, prepare something later." , we will take care of them both today."

Green also responded with a smile, and Merlin smiled and said: "This is a happy event, young master. I will prepare it so that those slaves can have a good rest."

The two slaves knelt down together, and the male slave said in a panic: "Master, I can't afford it. We are both born low-born. It is already a great blessing to be married by the master." Well, how dare you ask the young master to help us take care of it."

Zhao Hai smiled and said: "It doesn't matter, you are the first couple to get married among the slaves bought by Grandpa Green this time. We just take this opportunity to have a good time, and it's not all for you." The two of them then stood up.

By this time, they had already gone to Green, leaving only Meg standing beside Zhao Hai to accompany him. Now Zhao Hai and the others are not short of things. Zhao Hai's monthly income can feed these more than 100 people. Eating well is not a problem.

Zhao Haidai did not help much, but led Meg back to the living room of the castle and sat down. He had just given Green and the others everything they needed, and now he only needed to watch Green and the others prepare.

The two of them went to the living room and sat down. Meg prepared a pot of kaya for Zhao Hai and put it on the table. Zhao Hai smiled and said to Meg, "Sit down, let's talk about Qi Hexi's marriage."

Meg sat down as instructed, looked at Zhao Hai and said: "Why did the young master think of doing something big for them? Do you want other slaves to see it?"

Zhao Hai nodded, sighed and said: "Now our Buda family only has such a small number of people. These slaves will definitely spread their wings in the future. They have already been branded with the Buda family. It is impossible to erase them." We are gone. Now our conditions are much better than before. It is also a good thing for us that they can take the initiative to propose marriage. I am afraid that other slaves will slowly propose it. This is also a way to increase the population. And in the future, I will improve more and more land, and we will no longer be able to cultivate it uniformly like now. I plan to distribute these lands to the slaves, and we will only collect some rent so that they can cultivate more vigorously."

Meg was stunned, looked at Zhao Hai and said: "Then the young master means that today, Qi Hexi will be restored to civilian status, and he will be rewarded with a piece of land? So that they can rent seeds?"

On the mainland, those who rent land for farming are usually civilians, so when Zhao Hai said that he would give the land to those slaves and only charge rent, Meg understood what Zhao Hai meant.

Zhao Hai nodded and said: "Yes, this can be considered a good start. If our Buda family wants to develop and grow in the future, it will definitely not be possible in this form, so I want to slowly restore all those slaves." Their status as civilians allows them to have their own piece of land and their own income, so that they can have a smooth life."

Merlin grew up here in the Ark Continent. In their view, Zhao Hai's behavior is just throwing money away. You must know that slaves are also considered the property of the master, but if Zhao Hai restores their civilian status, they It can no longer be regarded as the property of the Buda family. Isn't this just throwing money away?

But what Zhao Hai said makes some sense. Now that the Buda family is employing people, it is necessary to stimulate 100% enthusiasm of these slaves so that they can work better, restore their status as civilians, and reward them with a piece of land. , for those slaves, this is undoubtedly a day like heaven, and they will naturally work hard.

Now that Zhao Hai is so confident and has room for success, it is his decision to punish the Buda family, so Meg did not object to Zhao Hai's words and just nodded.

Zhao Hai turned his head and glanced at the sky outside, sighed and said: "Although we are developing very well now, everything is like a floating cloud. If others know our identity, everything we have now will disappear in an instant. We will lose. I just hope that one day, we can stand openly in the sun and tell everyone in the world that we are members of the Buda family. Only then will we be considered truly successful."

Looking at Zhao Hai's appearance, Meg couldn't help but wet her eyes and said, "Don't worry, young master, there will be a day." Zhao Hai sighed, slowly closed his eyes, and sat on a chair to rest.

Meg felt very uncomfortable. She knew that Zhao Hai was not in good health. If there was no space, it was hard to say what Zhao Hai would be like now.

But since Zhao Hai woke up, he has been dragging his not-so-good body to work on the future of the Buda family, which makes people feel extremely heartbroken.

Zhao Hai is really a little tired. Although he doesn't exercise much now, his body is really not in good condition. In addition, he has a lot of things to deal with now. Although his body is not tired, his mind is very tired. I was tired, so I leaned on the sofa and fell asleep after a while.

I don't know how much time passed, but Zhao Hai heard someone calling him. He slowly opened his eyes and saw that it was Meg. Meg was calling her softly. Zhao Hai sat up and moved. Because he had been leaning on the sofa for too long, his neck was a little sore, so he stood up and said, "What? Are you ready?"

Meg nodded and said: "The table has been set up in the castle, and the food has been served. Grandpa also specially prepared some ale today. It seems that he really wants to have a good time."

Zhao Hai nodded, thought for a while, then turned to Meg and said, "By the way, I remember that we prepared a lot of colored paper some time ago. Do you still have it now?"

Meg didn't know what Zhao Hai wanted to do, but she still nodded and said: "Yes, those colored papers were specially bought for writing announcements when talking to those slaves in the future."

Zhao Hai nodded and said: "Come to the study with me first. By the way, prepare a piece of red colored paper." Although Meg didn't know what Zhao Hai wanted to do, she still responded and followed Zhao Hai to the study. go.

When he arrived in the study, Zhao Hai asked Meg to cut the red paper into a rectangle. He did it himself and wrote the word "Happy" on the paper, and then wrote the two people's names and the date of marriage underneath. This was considered done. The world's first simple marriage certificate.

Meg kept watching. At first, she didn't know what Zhao Hai was going to get, but when he saw what Zhao Hai wrote, he finally understood and felt very novel.

This marriage certificate was very simple. It was just a piece of red paper with words written on it. Zhao Hai only made such a certificate on a whim, but he did not expect that this thing would eventually become an heirloom of Qi's family. Treasure, and things like marriage certificates later slowly spread throughout the continent.

After writing the marriage certificate, Zhao Hai and Meg went downstairs and arrived at the square of the outer castle. The square was already very lively. Tables had been set up one after another. They were all square tables. On each table were eight Each dish can seat eight people, and there is a barrel of ale beside each table.

This barley wine is a relatively cheap wine on the mainland and is generally drunk by civilians. Some time ago, Green specially bought some for these slaves to drink. Now it finally comes in use.

Now the slaves have sat at the table, and Green and the others are also waiting for Zhao Hai. When they saw Zhao Hai coming, the slaves immediately saluted Zhao Hai. Zhao Hai waved his hand and exempted them from the salute, and then said: " Today is Qi He’s special day, so I’ll take this opportunity to let everyone cheer for them.”

Those slaves were also happy for Qi Hexi, and Qi Hexi was even more excited and shy. Both of their faces were red. Zhao Hai waved to them and said: "Qi, Xi, you two come here." Qi He Xi quickly walked to Zhao Hai.

Zhao Hai looked at the two of them and said with a smile: "You are very good. You are the first couple since our Buda family arrived in the Black Earth Territory. I want to reward you. From today on, you are no longer slaves. You You are civilians from the black soil territory of my Buda family. I will ask Grandma Meilin to measure out ten acres of land for you outside the castle. From now on, these ten acres of land will be yours. From now on, four layers of your annual income will be given to us, and the rest will be given to us. It's all your own, and in the castle, a house will be prepared for you, and the things used in it will be ready, so you will have your own home in the future."

What Zhao Hai said was shocking. Those slaves were shocked. They didn't expect that Zhao Hai would give Qi Hexi land as long as he paid the rent. For those slaves, this was really a big deal. It's so important.

Qi and Xi both felt as if they were in a dream. It took them a while to realize what they were doing, and they quickly knelt down and kowtowed to Zhao Hai to thank him.
