Chapter 28: Horse Bone

Zhao Hai is very clear that his space does not have much attack ability, not even active defense ability. His only function is to plant vegetables, and he may have to hide inside.

Zhao Hai doesn't have much confidence in using space to deal with Corpse Swamp. Don't forget, Corpse Swamp is one of the five forbidden areas on the mainland, and there are also undead creatures and poisonous beasts. However, space doesn't have much attack power. How can he use it to deal with Corpse Swamp?

Time passed unconsciously, and Zhao Hai couldn't come up with any good solutions. In the end, he had to decide that if the monsters in the Rotten Corpse Swamp came out, they would have to rely on the castle to fight against them first. If it didn't work, he would have to take everyone to the space, which had more than ten acres of land and could accommodate these people no matter how hard it was.

At this moment, Zhao Hai suddenly heard a commotion outside. He looked up and realized that it was almost noon and the slaves should have come back for dinner.

As soon as Zhao Hai stood up and prepared to go outside, he saw Meg, Wood, and Stone walking briskly in from outside. The three of them immediately welcomed Zhao Hai and bowed to him, saying, "Young master

Zhao Hai nodded and smiled at the three of them, saying, "You guys go and arrange it. The corn stalks and corn stalks on the open space outside are for burning. If those slaves feel cold at night, let them use those things to keep warm

Meg looked at Zhao Hai in confusion and said, "Young master, what is that corn

Zhao Hai smiled and said, "Corn is the main crop we will plant in the future. The yield per mu can reach more than 2000 kilograms. Corn stalks and corn shafts can also be used to burn fires. I have already discussed this with Grandma Meilin, and we will plant corn in the future

Meg's eyes lit up and she looked at Zhao Hai, saying, "Young master, is that corn yield really that high

Zhao Hai nodded with a smile and said, "It's true. Alright, let's arrange for them to eat. Grandma Merlin is almost ready to cook. Arrange for them, and you can come back for dinner too. I have something to say later." The three of them nodded and turned to walk towards the outer castle.

At this moment, Merlin also walked out of the room. She heard the commotion outside and glanced around, but didn't pay much attention. Merlin knew Meg very well and knew that Meg could handle things outside. She turned to Ye Hai and said, "Young master, come and eat. The meal is ready

Zhao Hai nodded and followed Merlin into the restaurant. Merlin went to the kitchen to serve food, while Zhao Hai sat in the restaurant in a daze. He realized that he was getting lazier and lazier now. When he was on Earth, he had to prepare three meals a day and clean his room. Every household chore was done by himself.

When he arrived at the Ark Continent, he was a young master. If he was willing, he didn't even have to do his own clothes, so he naturally didn't have to do household chores. To be honest, this habit was really a terrible thing. In just a few days, Zhao Hai had already become accustomed to letting others take care of everything.

As he was lost in thought, Merlin had already come in with a plate. Their food was still very simple, bread, vegetables, and some meat, which was only for Zhao Hai. They didn't have any wood or stones.

Although the food was very simple, Zhao Hai could see Merlin's concern for him from this simple food. In the entire castle, he used the best things and ate the best. The whole castle was centered around him. This feeling made Zhao Hai very grateful and also felt a lot of pressure.

He is not the playboy Adam Buda, he is a responsible man. The better Merlin and the others treat him, the more pressure he feels. These people live around him, which means they rely on him for survival. Although the Buda family is now in decline, as long as he is alive, the Buda family will exist and they will not be bullied by other nobles. Perhaps Merlin and the others are already satisfied with this.

But Zhao Hai is not satisfied. These people are living around him, so he has a responsibility to make them live better. In the current situation, there is really a lot of pressure on him to make them all live better.

Merlin noticed that Zhao Hai hadn't eaten anything, but was staring blankly at the plate. He thought Zhao Hai wasn't satisfied with the lunch and quickly said, "Young master, what's wrong with you? Is it because the food doesn't taste right

Zhao Hai suddenly snapped out of his daze and turned to Merlin with a slight smile, saying, "No, Grandma Merlin, this meal is done very well. I was just thinking, when can I make everyone in the castle eat this kind of food, then I will be satisfied

Merlin's eyes turned red as he looked at Zhao Hai with a smile and said, "As long as there is space for the young master, one day he will do it. I believe in the young master

Zhao Hai nodded and said, 'Yes, there will be such a day sooner or later.' As Meg and the three of them walked in from outside, Merlin immediately went to the kitchen and brought out all the food prepared for them.

When the few of them were about to finish eating, Zhao Hai turned to Meilin and said, "Grandma Meilin, please arrange for them to go pick stones this afternoon. This matter should be prioritized now. I'll take care of the things in the valley. You just need to send me over every day and bring me back

After seeing Zhao Hai's magical performance in space, Merlin's confidence in Zhao Hai increased greatly. She immediately nodded and said, "Okay, I'll organize them to pick stones this afternoon. Young master, you can rest well this afternoon." Zhao Hai nodded, knowing that he couldn't help much now because his body was not as strong as those slaves who had been working all year round due to drinking the Water of Nothingness. Speaking of Merlin, they couldn't let him pick stones either.

After eating and resting for a while, Merlin immediately organized the slaves to go and pick stones. They still had some tools for digging stones, and in addition, the stones used when the castle was built were already good stones, so there was not much damage. They mainly dug stones to make some stone weapons.

This stone weapon is not very difficult to make, mainly consisting of stone spears, hammers, and axes, and cannot be made into anything of great power.

Although they only have over a hundred people now, and there are only fifty young male slaves who can fight, they cannot prepare too few weapons. Stone weapons are very easy to break, so each person needs to prepare several spare weapons.

In addition, he also needs to mine more stones and put them on the castle as watchstones to use. After all, Zhao Hai and his team never thought about confronting those undead creatures and poisonous beasts head-on when they first prepared their weapons. They don't have that ability either, and they can only rely on the castle for defense. This has to be said to be in the absence of undead creatures, otherwise they wouldn't be able to defend at all.

However, the problem is about to arise. Although this used to be an iron mine, it is one that has already been mined by the dwarves. Moreover, the place in the mountain where stones can be truly mined has now become a mountain lake. Therefore, Merlin and his team have put in a lot of effort this afternoon just to locate the mining site.

Finally, Merlin and his team found a small mine not far from the castle that could be mined, but they couldn't extract too many stones from it. Merlin couldn't help but sigh that this mine, which had been mined by the dwarves, was really like it had been looted, so clean that it made people want to cry.

After a long afternoon, Merlin and the others had to return to the castle dejectedly. They found that the method of using stones to make weapons was not feasible. Firstly, they had no experience in using stones. Secondly, the tools in their hands were not very convenient, and their work efficiency was too slow. In addition, there were not many stones here, so even if they were all taken out, they were not enough. In the end, Merlin had to tell Zhao Hai about this situation and the plan had to be canceled.

Zhao Hai was really resting in the afternoon. His physical strength is not good now. He started exercising in the morning and after walking such a long distance, he was really tired. As soon as he lay down, he fell asleep.

When he got up, Merlin and the others had already returned. Upon hearing Merlin's words, Zhao Hai had no choice but to wait. It seemed that he had to wait until Green returned, sell all the radishes, and then buy some weapons from outside.

The most new and small to say in the book of ⊥⊥⊥⊥⊥⊥⊥⊥⊥⊥⊥⊥⊥⊥⊥⊥⊥⊥⊥\886!

During the time when Greene had not returned, they could do nothing. If the undead creatures and poisonous beasts from the Dead Swamp really attacked, they would have to hide in space.

Just when Zhao Hai was at a loss, Meg suddenly ran over from outside with an excited face. As soon as she entered the room, she happily said to Zhao Hai, "Young master, I have good news." Ever since Zhao Hai improved the land for the first time and Meg hugged him excitedly, Meg had changed unconsciously. When she saw Zhao Hai now, she didn't bow her head anymore, naturally more lively than before.

Zhao Hai and Meilin were both stunned, and Meilin immediately said, "What's up

Meg immediately smiled and said, "Grandma, someone just came to me as a slave. He said he can weave grass. He can turn the grass on the mountain into various things, such as mats, curtains, grass shoes, etc

Zhao Hai was taken aback for a moment, then his eyes lit up. He realized that this was an opportunity. It turned out that the regulations he had set for lifting the slave status of those people indicated that as long as they had a skill and performed well, their slave status could be lifted. However, in recent days, none of the slaves had come forward to voluntarily explain their skill. Although they worked hard, Zhao Hai was still very disappointed.

Zhao Hai also knew that those slaves couldn't turn around for a while. They were afraid, so they dared not show any behavior. To change this situation, it would take a very long process, and someone had to set an example.

Those slaves have been oppressed for too long, and their thinking has become rigid. It will take a long time for them to accept this new regulation.

Zhao Hai had already prepared himself psychologically, but he didn't expect that those slaves would surprise him today. Someone actually stepped forward voluntarily. Although he only mentioned an inconspicuous skill, this leader was bringing it too well. When Zhao Hai set that rule, he had the intention of buying horse bones with a thousand dollars. Now that it's over, the horse bones have appeared.
