Once the personnel are in place, the reconstruction work that never sets can officially begin.
In the vast and sparsely populated barren land, abundant resources are inexhaustible. Using local materials is much faster than transporting them from the Longxuan Empire's own country.
If building a city requires stones, bricks, and tiles, Shen Yanxiao directly assigned three thousand slaves to work.
A thousand people went to various places in the eastern region to mine ores and stone materials.
Five hundred people, along with Uncle Jiu and his companions, were cultivating wasteland and growing crops outside the city where the sun never sets.
Among the remaining 1500 people, 500 slaves were women. This was a female slave specially purchased by Shen Yanxiao, who would be responsible for logistics and preparing food for other laborers.
Remove these five hundred female slaves, and the remaining one thousand people will be completely devoted to the construction that never sets.
Under the tears of the members of the Cave Wolf Mercenary Group, Shen Yanxiao waved his hand and issued an order to give up building houses and directly build the city wall.
As soon as this order was issued, the mercenaries of the Cave Wolf Mercenary Group laughed up to the sky one by one. How long do they want to continue this day of being a feast for the masses!
Wow, living in a dangerous house all day and being smashed to death every minute!
However, Shen Yanxiao was determined to first build the city wall.
After assigning tasks, everyone who never sets and the demons were mobilized.
Demons may not be able to truly start building cities, but moving work is very suitable for them to do.
The mining team, consisting of fifty people, is divided into twenty teams. Each team travels with one high-level demon, five low-level demons, and one hundred low-level demons, completely avoiding the possibility of being hunted by other demons outside.
Shen Yanxiao has designated an area outside the city specifically for growing food. Although she has brought a lot of food, the population that never sets has now reached over 3000. Although the food she has on hand can sustain her for a period of time, it is not a long-term solution.
Fortunately, she cleverly bought a large number of seeds before coming to the barren land.
Teaching people how to fish is better than teaching them how to fish. Sustainable and circular development is the way to go!
As the sun never set, the slaves were assigned work and also received corresponding rewards. Shen Yanxiao was not a slave owner who exploited them without any bottom line. She gave them clothes and food.
It also gave them dignity.
After each slave completed their day's work, Shen Yanxiao would have someone distribute them five gold coins as a reward. Although these coins could not be used until sunset, they would have a place to use them after the city was built.
Shen Yanxiao's approach made those numb slaves very grateful.
They thought they would spend their entire lives in the dark slave market, and even if they were fortunate enough to be bought away, they would only continue to live a life without dignity and human rights.
But Shen Yanxiao not only relieved them of their slave status, gave them the same respect and recognition as others, but also gave them gold coins that they never dared to expect in their lifetime.
Five gold coins a day, two days of work can earn ten gold coins to buy them!!!
They were numb because there was no hope, but Shen Yanxiao gave them hope to live as human beings. They saw a bright future, and their hearts, which had been buried by despair for a long time, finally woke up again.
