After the meal, Zhao Hai left Merlin in the house and asked her to cook him a bit of cocoa. As he drank the cocoa, Zhao Hai said to Merlin, ” “Grandma Merlin, what do you think we should do now? How can we let those slaves learn how to read in peace?”

Merlin thought for a moment and looked at Zhao Hai. &Quot; “Young master, do you really want to listen to my opinion?”

Zhao Hai quickly replied, ” of course, grandma Merlin. You’ve always been in charge of people in the Buda family. I’ve never been in charge of anyone before, so I don’t have as much experience as you in this area. &Quot;

Merlin smiled. &Quot; thank you for your praise, young master. I think you’re too good to those slaves now. You should be stricter. &Quot;

These words stunned Zhao Hai. Zhao Hai didn’t quite understand and said, ” “Grandma Merlin, you’re saying that I should be stricter with those slaves? Why?”

Merlin smiled and said, ” &Quot; young master, you have to know that a superior doesn’t only have a gentle side. He also has a strict side. If he is too gentle, his subordinates will think that he is easy to bully. Of course, these slaves will not be in this situation. However, they will think that you are too good to them, and they have not done so well. Therefore, they feel sorry for you. That is why they can’t lift their spirits when they are learning to read. In their eyes, helping us is their value. Learning how to read and write is our reward to them. Now, we’re only giving them rewards and not letting them do anything. That’s why they feel uneasy.”

Zhao Hai was taken aback. He had never thought about it in this way. Zhao Hai felt that these slaves should be like the students on earth. To be honest, no student would treat learning as a reward. Everyone wished that they could only attend two classes a week and rest for five days.

Zhao Hai had always overlooked one problem. In this world, almost all skills and knowledge were closed to slaves. Slaves were only used for work. In the eyes of some nobles, slaves were not human.

“I understand. Thank you, grandma Merlin, for letting me think about what to do,” Zhao Hai said after some thought.

Merlin nodded in relief. She understood what Zhao Hai meant. Yes, it was undeniable that the current Zhao Hai was very outstanding. At least in her eyes, Zhao Hai was very outstanding. However, she had to admit that Zhao Hai still had a lot to learn.

Zhao Hai sat there for a while, thinking about how to deal with this situation. To be honest, this was the first time he had encountered such a situation. He had never dealt with such a situation before.

After thinking for a while, Zhao Hai stood up and let out a long breath. He turned to Merlin and said, ” “Grandma Merlin, let’s go out. I want to see these people.”

Merlin nodded. The two of them left the straw house and walked to the slave. The slave was practicing writing on the grass. They pulled the grass away to reveal the soil underneath, and then wrote on the soil with corn stalks.

However, Zhao Hai noticed that the slaves seemed to be listless. They were very different from the excited ones when they first learned how to write.

Zhao Hai walked over with a dark face and said calmly, ” “Everyone, stop for a moment.”

When the slaves saw Zhao Hai, they immediately put down their corn stalks and knelt on the ground to salute him. However, Zhao Hai did not ask them to stand up and talk to him gently like before. Instead, he said in a deep voice, ” “I heard that you guys weren’t very serious when learning how to write these days?”

His voice wasn’t very loud and was very calm, but the slaves couldn’t help but tremble. They immediately said in unison, ” “Master, please punish me.”

Zhao Hai’s voice was cold. &Quot; there is one thing that you have not understood. Letting you learn how to write is not just a reward for you, but also to let you serve the Buda family better. Even if you are stupid, you should understand the current situation of the Buda family. The Buda family needs each and every one of you to do your best to serve them. It is the greatest effort, do you understand? But what abilities do you have now? besides doing some physical work, what else can you do? What techniques do you have? What are your specialties? I’ll give you a book, how many words can you read? You guys don’t know anything now. If those undead creatures are under my control, one undead creature is equivalent to ten of you, and I don’t need to waste food to support them! In terms of strength, you can’t beat the horse, so why should I take you and not the horse? As long as you can learn to read, you can serve the Buda family better. If it’s just for the sake of doing manual work, why would I let you learn to read? Don’t tell me that you don’t want to learn how to read because you don’t want to serve the Buda family better?”

All the slaves knelt there in fear. This was the first time Zhao Hai had said such harsh words to them since they saw him. They were really frightened.

Zhao Hai took a few deep breaths to calm himself down before he said, ” “I said that if you do well, I can restore his status as a civilian. But do you think that by giving you your status as a civilian, you can live a good life? No, if you don’t have the ability, even if you’re a commoner, you’re still the lowest class of commoners. You have to remember that my Buda family needs people who have the heart to improve and want to live a good life, not those who only want to eat and wait for death.”

Zhao Hai looked at chrysanthemum and said, ” many of you are wondering why I let chrysanthemum return to her commoner status. She only knows how to weave grass. Many of you can also weave grass, and it’s not any worse than chrysanthemum. But why did I let her return to her commoner status? ” “Let me tell you, because ju dared to stand out and say that she would, she could, and that she wanted to change her life. She wanted to live a better life, wanted her younger brother to be saved, wanted her younger brother and her children to become commoners and have a fair chance to receive education instead of relying on rewards. I hope you can learn from ju. I hope that when you see me one day, you can only bow to me and call me young master, instead of master. The Buda family needs 100 people who will serve the Buda family with all their heart, not 100 slaves. Do you understand?”

All the slaves knelt there and shouted, ” “Understood, master.”

The slaves were very excited. This was the first time a noble had said such words to them. This was the first time someone had treated them as humans. This was the first time someone had hoped that they could become humans. Although Zhao Hai was angry at them, they were not dissatisfied at all. On the contrary, they were filled with gratitude and respect for Zhao Hai. This was because Zhao Hai had planted a seed in their hearts. A seed that would never die out.

After listening to them, Zhao Hai nodded and said, ” &Quot; stand up. I don’t like people always kneeling in front of me. Remember, learn how to write. This is not a reward, but an order. &Quot;

“Yes, master,” the slaves replied in unison. Only then did he stand up.

Although these slaves had been kneeling on the ground for a long time, when they stood up, they seemed to have an additional aura. Their previous shriveled looks seemed to have disappeared, and their bodies seemed to be filled with power.

Merlin smiled and stood behind Zhao Hai. His eyes were full of relief. She did not expect Zhao Hai to do so well today, even better than she had imagined. Not only did he give the slaves a warning, but he also made them feel grateful to him. Merlin was very satisfied with Zhao Hai’s performance.

Zhao Hai glanced at the slaves who were standing up straight and nodded. He turned to Merlin and said, ” &Quot; grandma Merlin, I’ll leave the rest to you. Don’t just study every day. If you do that, it’ll make your brain numb and you won’t remember anything at all. &Quot;

Merlin smiled. &Quot; don’t worry, young master. I know what to do. This isn’t my first time teaching a student. &Quot;

Zhao Hai laughed out loud and turned around to walk towards the straw house. Mu TOU and Shi TOU followed behind Zhao Hai. Meg also did not follow Merlin this time. Instead, she followed Zhao Hai with a face full of admiration.

Meg felt that Zhao Hai was really too handsome today. It was just that when he was talking to her just now, his body seemed to be glowing, and there was an inexplicable power that kept attracting her eyes, making her unable to leave Zhao Hai for a second.

Zhao Hai returned to his room and heaved a long sigh of relief. He had prepared everything before he said those words. He had even planned where he would pause and what kind of expression he would use. Of course, he was a little emotional towards the end, so he had to act more realistically. However, it was undeniable that he had planned these words.

Meg followed Zhao Hai into the house. When she saw Zhao Hai, she couldn’t help but smile again. She really liked staying by Zhao Hai’s side more and more. It was as if Zhao Hai had a power that could calm her mind, giving her a sense of peace, peace, and security.

Only then did Zhao Hai notice that there was someone behind him. He was stunned and turned around to see that it was meg. Zhao Hai felt a little embarrassed. He was a homebody and had never interacted with girls before. After seeing her hug him last time, he didn’t know what to say to her. Now that he saw her standing behind him, he was even more at a loss.

Zhao Hai was at a loss,”ah, meg, why are you here?” What’s the matter?”

Looking at Zhao Hai, the smile on Meg’s face widened. She immediately said, ” “What’s wrong? Young master, can’t I enter this room?”

“Yes, of course you can. You can come in at any time. Have a seat and drink some cocoa,” Zhao Hai replied immediately.

Looking at Zhao Hai’s face, meg couldn’t help but burst into laughter. &Quot; young master, that Keya was prepared for you. I don’t dare to drink it, or else my mother will scold me. &Quot;

“No, it’s my treat. It’s okay,” Zhao Hai quickly said.
