    Next, Black Bear introduced Zhao Hongyu to the white captain of the escort team, the black maid, and the head maid.

    These people all showed their respect and humility in front of Zhao Hongyu.

    Because they knew that the young man they saw had a higher status than the owner of their mohawk.

    He is the real owner of this land and has supreme rights.

    There are many male and female black slaves working around, some are trimming the lawn, some are repairing the wooden fence, and some are pruning the flowers and branches. Everything looks so peaceful.

    These people are the best performers among the black slaves, so they can enter the manor and live with their masters.

    "After entering the manor, the quality of life is definitely different from that of other black slaves.

    And the black slaves outside are different. They do not need to wear shackles and shackles when living in the manor.  Compared with other black slaves, they had a relatively high status.

    ¡°Moreover, Black Bear assigned them a black woman as their wife.

    It is unthinkable that a slave has a wife.

    But Black Bear did just that, and the results were pretty good.

    ¡°At least, the black slaves in the manor were much more loyal to him than those working in the fields outside.

    At this time, a white guard rode a horse from the gravel road leading to the field to the gate of the manor. The black housekeeper greeted him and the two exchanged a few words.

    After a while, a carriage came from the end of the road.

    Zhao Hongyu looked over and saw that the carriage seemed to be carrying several black slaves.

    The black slaves staggered and were pushed out of the carriage. They were then escorted by the black butler Obama and the white guards to a large wooden warehouse nearby.

    "what 's wrong?"

    Zhao Hongyu asked Black Bear a little strangely.

    After Hei Xiong glanced at it, he turned to Zhao Hongyu and said: "It's probably those black slaves who are causing trouble, or they are running away or something. My management of black slaves here is quite loose, but there are always some people who can't figure it out.  Looking for trouble."

    After Zhao Hongyu heard this, he just sighed in his heart and stopped asking.

    He knew that oppression was inevitable in any era, and it was inevitable in his empire.

    But, after all, he will not feel very comfortable in his heart.

    "Don't worry about those things, Obama will take care of them." Black Bear didn't notice that his son-in-law was a little depressed now, but he was in a good mood.

    Several black slaves carried several tables from the back room to the courtyard and set them up, then spread them with white tablecloths.

    Tableware and wine glasses were placed on the table.

    "These black slaves have been trained by the white guard captain. Of course, your regiment commander also has some ideas." Seeing that his son-in-law was very interested in these black slaves, Black Bear said  Talked about it.

    "I said how come they know the rules so well? It turns out they have been trained." Zhao Hongyu was very surprised.

    Black Bear smiled and said, "That's for sure. How could they know so much without training."

    While the two were talking, there was a sound of a whip hitting a human body from the large white-painted warehouse, followed by a scream.

    Zhao Hongyu knew that he was teaching a lesson to the black slaves who were escorted back.

    The sound didn¡¯t last long before it stopped.

    Then several white guards walked out of the warehouse carrying a dying black slave in pairs.

    Behind them, followed the black butler named Obama.

    They carried the tortured black slaves to a tall tree outside the manor.  Then several white guards tied up several black slaves and hung them on the tree trunks.

    Zhao Hongyu could see clearly that after the black slaves were hung up, the butler named Obama walked over and took the dagger from the white escort, and quickly slit the throats of the black slaves.

    After finishing all this, everyone dispersed.

    Several white guards got on their horses and returned to the distant fields.

    And the black butler returned to Zhao Hongyu and the others.

    "Obama, what did those guys commit? It doesn't matter how many people you executed, but they were all bought with silver coins after all."

    Black Bear didn¡¯t have much emotional fluctuation after a few slaves died, but after all, those slaves were bought back with money.?'s.

    So, he needs to ask clearly.

    Although Zhao Hongyu, who was sitting aside, had a calm expression on his face, he sighed in his heart that his father-in-law had become a black-hearted manor owner.

    You must know that all the estate owners in the United States in the eighteenth century were so black-hearted.

    It seems that his father-in-law has become that kind of person.

    "Sir, those black slaves attacked a guard, killed him and then tried to escape. Unfortunately, they were caught after running for three days, so I will execute them."

    Obama¡¯s answer made Zhao Hongyu¡¯s eyes twitch.

    ???????????????????????????? Negro slave?

    Damn it, you are a black person yourself, okay, how can you use this tone?

    "But when Zhao Hongyu thought that there would be such a kind of person in the future, he felt relieved.

    Yes, there is a kind of people in China in later generations. After they go abroad to an island country, they will change the name of the island country, and then talk about their compatriots as China or something like that.

    ¡°As for those who have gone to Europe, they say that their motherland is so bad and so bad, and they always wish they could become white.

    Such weird things are not only found in later generations, but also in this era.

    Its representative is the butler Obama.

    It was only after thinking of these that Zhao Hongyu felt relieved.

    ¡°It¡¯s strange that such a strange thing happened to me.

    "But Zhao Hongyu doesn't plan to do anything to this weirdo. After all, what this weird butler Obama does is for his father-in-law, for this manor and land, and to manage other black slaves.

    After all, this guy is also loyal.

    "Oh, it turns out they are those people from three days ago. If they are them, let's execute them." Black Bear said to Obama calmly after knowing the reason.  "You go and wash up. Your Highness will have lunch with us today. By the way, please ask the young lady and my wife to come out of the house."

    After the strange butler Obama left, Black Bear turned to look at Zhao Hongyu and asked seriously: "Do you think these black slaves can be used if they are allowed to serve as soldiers? I think if these people are used well, they will be useful to the empire.  The development is still very useful.¡±

    To be honest, it was not that Zhao Hongyu had not considered what Black Bear was talking about, but in the end it was rejected by Zhao Hongyu and the others.

    First of all, the empire currently has enough soldiers, so there is no need to use black slaves at all.

    ¡°Besides, as the territory becomes larger and larger in the future, there will definitely be more and more black slaves.

    For these people, they will definitely be enslaved in the future, and it is impossible to liberate them for the time being.

    Giving them weapons at the same time is very unsafe.

    So Zhao Hongyu replied: "We have considered this issue, but it is not feasible. However, it is still possible to select a few people to give them citizenship of the empire and let them set an example. This can give hope to those slaves and help stabilize them.  .¡±

    The black bear nodded and did not continue to discuss this issue.

    He knew that it was better not to have any ideas on national affairs. His own ideas were not as good as those of his son-in-law.

    "Maybe I can cause trouble for him."

    The words he just said were just what he said casually, and even he didn't take them seriously.

    "Give those slaves some hope?"

    However, when Black Bear heard what Zhao Hongyu said, he showed a strange expression.

    Zhao Hongyu nodded: "Yes, we need to give the slaves a little hope. Once they see hope, they will work hard, which is very helpful in stabilizing them and preventing them from causing trouble."

    For Zhao Hongyu, who came from later generations, he knew these things very well.

    "For example, we can give your butler Obama a citizenship. His wife and children enjoy citizenship rights, and he is no longer a slave. His children can even grow up to become small civil servants in an empire. You  What do those slaves think?"

    Zhao Hongyu looked at his father-in-law with a smile.

    The black bear¡¯s mouth grew bigger, and after a long time he said, ¡°I guess everyone will be dumbfounded.¡±

    Zhao Hongyu nodded: "In addition to being dumbfounded, they will also see hope. As long as they work hard and don't do anything, they will be free and live as citizens of the empire."

    Zhao Hongyu knows very well what hope means to slaves.

    He also understandsIf you do this, those slaves will really get excited.

    Especially when they see those role models who have succeeded and truly become citizens, what kind of impact will it have on them?

    Of course, Zhao Hongyu will not really restore freedom to all slaves. Strictly speaking, Zhao Hongyu is really deceiving them.

    Although this is very unethical.

    "But please don't get me wrong, father-in-law. I just plan to set a few examples in a few years and give those slaves hope. In essence, I am actually deceiving them." Then Zhao Hongyu explained his plans and such  What would happen if you do it, as well as the most fundamental nature of this method, were all told to your father-in-law.

    After listening to Zhao Hongyu¡¯s story, Black Bear felt that his brain was a little hard to use.

    "Son-in-law, you go ahead and do this. I really can't figure out how your head grew. I can't think of such a way." Black Bear said to Zhao Hongyu sincerely, and at the same time he was glad that he and Zhao Hongyu became  In-laws.

    "Dad, what should we eat for lunch? I'm hungry now."

    Emma, ??Sarah, her mother, and a dozen black slave maids came over.

    Before she even got close, Emma started shouting.  (To be continued. Please search Piaotian Literature, the novels will be better and updated faster!)
