The last human in the universe

Chapter 81 Coolies
Yes.According to Zhao Changxing's arrangement, the space carrier will not stay here for a long time, but will return immediately after obtaining enough fuel.

There are several reasons for this arrangement.First, the space carrier is purely for combat, and it does not carry too many construction tools on it, so it is not suitable for permanent residence here.

Second, it is not appropriate for these soldiers who have made great contributions to civilization to continue to stay in this place far from home.At this moment, no one wants to go home more than them.

The third is that in the positioning of human civilization, the deep space star is a resource supply planet, not a living planet.There is no point in stationing troops here, and it is more appropriate to leave it to the workers who came later.

All of these decisions were made after discussions between Zhao Changxing and the high-level civilization left behind on Sedna.

As for how to deal with these prisoners, people also made a decision after discussion.

Zhao Changxing believes that the words "the war between civilizations does not require prisoners" said by the captives of the deep space stars have some truth.The reason is very simple, the physiological structure is completely different, the culture is completely different, and even the requirements for the living environment are completely different, basically there is no possibility of fusion.

Besides, things like population can be "manufactured" as long as there is time, regardless of natural reproduction or technological reproduction.Since the population of one's own side is as large as it needs to be, why do we need the population of foreigners?
To sum up, the way to deal with the captives is, of course, to kill them all.

Not only Zhao Changxing, but every human being has no psychological burden for breaking his previous promise of "surrender and not kill".After all, these enemies almost destroyed their own civilization not long ago.

However, doing things is not ideal, and we still need to consider the current situation.The current situation of human civilization is that the population is seriously underpopulated, and the expansion of the population is severely limited.Under such circumstances, it makes sense to keep these captives.

They can be used as coolies.Anyway, they are all tall and strong, and they do some physical work that cannot be replaced by robots. Each of them is comparable to four or five humans.Besides, there is no need to pay wages, and it is enough to provide some food and some living environment.

Good quality and low price, work hard until death.Zhao Changxing didn't believe that a few captives could cause chaos in civilization.

So after discussion, the people decided to keep their promise not to kill these captives.

Now, there is the first thing these captives need to do.

Collect the legacy left by the deep space civilization in an all-round way, and act as a front-line worker to mine fuel for the space carrier.

In the previous battles, various facilities of the deep space civilization were destroyed in sevens and eighties, but the only remaining legacy is also of great value.After comprehensive statistics, Zhao Changxing was pleasantly surprised to find that there are seven or eight kinds of extremely scarce mineral deposits on Sedna Planet, with a total mass of tens of millions of tons, and all of them are purified and can be used when taken.

In addition, affected by the war, there are even more buried underground.At that time, when there is industrial power, just dig them out.

In addition to physical resources, Zhao Changxing was even more pleased with the data legacy left by the deep space civilization.

Most of these data relics were destroyed during the war, and there are not many left.However, after all, this is a civilization that has experienced interstellar voyages, and these materials are also of extremely high value.

The most precious ones are the log records during the interstellar voyage, some fragmented technical details, and what Zhao Changxing valued most, some blueprints of the genetic modification equipment.

At this moment, all the blueprint information about the genetic modification instrument has been transferred to the data storage disk of human civilization.Of course, there is no time to decipher them at this moment, let alone imitation.But it's only a matter of time.

Among all the results of the battle, Zhao Changxing even believed that only one blueprint of the genetic modification instrument was enough to make up for all the losses of his side.

This made Zhao Changxing couldn't help sighing: "Sure enough, war is a business with high risks and high rewards."

It's just a pity that the genetic modification instrument originally possessed by the deep space star was wiped out in the explosion of the hydrogen bomb.But this is also impossible.When civilization lives and dies, it really can't care so much.

The front line has won a complete victory, completely wiped out the opponent's civilization, and the news that the threat to survival has been completely eliminated has been sent back to Sedna Star.At this moment, Sedna star has begun to rush to build industrial spaceships. I am afraid that within a few years, industrial spaceships from humans will come here.

Fuel extraction operations have also begun.When the fuel reserves are complete, the space carrier can set off for the return voyage.

This interstellar expedition, no matter Zhao Changxing or the others, all had a feeling of full harvest.

Compared with these gains, the costs of this expedition can even be completely ignored.

In the prison camp, Gudazar and his companions were all worried.

Can live, no one wants to die.This is true even for subhumans with low intelligence.

Although human civilization said "Surrender without killing", but... who knows whether it is true or not?

After waiting for an unknown amount of time in anticipation and suffering, Gudazar finally received the order.

"You're all going to deep space surface mining for fuel."

This arrangement made Gudazar feel a little more at ease.

Having a job means that you still have value, so you won't be executed in a short time.

So a group of sub-people happily came to the surface of the deep space star, and started the work of collecting tolin, oxygen ore and other fuels for production.

The electromagnetic railgun made by the deep space civilization was not damaged, and it is very convenient to transport materials into space.The only thing that needs to be considered is the risk of the supply box being blown up due to the impact of interstellar mines.But it's not a big deal, just send it if it's broken.

Anyway, there are a lot of resources on the deep space star.

In order to fight for the chance of survival, a group of sub-persons worked very seriously, and did not dare to neglect even without a supervisor.

During a certain gap in the space carrier, Zhao Changxing said casually to the logistics team who came to ask for instructions on how to treat the captives: "Since they are coolies, the treatment must not be good. Give them two meals 24 hours a day." That's fine, 18 hours of working time, 6 hours of rest. By the way, including meal time and so on, all within these 6 hours. By the way, the food doesn't have to be too good, as long as it can support the work."

"Yes."

The logistics team member went excitedly.As he walked, he thought bitterly in his heart: "You aliens dared to launch missiles at us. Now, be a coolie honestly!"

On the first day of work, the staff member stopped temporarily after the people worked for 10 consecutive hours.

This surprised Gudazar a bit.

It's only 10 hours, it's impossible for us to rest...

After being captured, he has initially mastered the timekeeping system of human civilization, and can complete the conversion between human timekeeping and the timekeeping system of deep space stars.

Is it, is it...

Gudazar was filled with fear.

He saw a human in a space suit pushing a large cart into the fuel plant.On top of the cart was a large barrel, still steaming.A seductive fragrance immediately spread into people's olfactory organs.

"Eat, eat!"

"Eat... eat? Eat now?"

Gudazar took the big bowl in disbelief, and filled a bowl of thick porridge made with "big millet".

Millet is the most common food for deep space stars.

As soon as he ate it, Gudazar tasted the rich flavor of seasoning.This made him almost cry at this moment.

The taste of seasoning... I don't know how many years I haven't tasted it.

It was a big bowl as big as a human head, and I drank it all up in just two sips.Afterwards, Gudazar and his companions reluctantly put down the bowl, intending to continue working.

But the human in the space suit knocked on the vat impatiently, and the translated deep space star language came out from the communicator: "Can I eat that much to be full? Are you going to be lazy? Give me all of them." !"

Gudazar's body froze suddenly.After a while, he cautiously and timidly asked the short human being in front of him who could be killed with a single punch: "This, these are all ours?"

The human rolled his eyes and muttered in a low voice: "Nonsense, these pig food is not for you, but we can eat it?"

Because the voice was too low, this sentence was not translated.

"It's all yours! Eat it!"

An unbelievable feeling rose from the hearts of Gudazar and his companions.The next moment, Gudazar and his companions rushed to the vat together, and couldn't wait to scoop up another bowl of big millet porridge.After three or two sips, it was another bowl.

Until the stomach is full and I can't drink any more.

The feeling of fullness in his stomach made Gudazar want to shed tears again.

"How many years, the first time I tried to feel full..."

"Have you eaten yet? Go to work!"

"Yes Yes Yes!"

A group of people rushed to the workplace like lightning.

It wasn't until the end of the prescribed working hours that people were driven back to the collective dormitory to rest.

"What? Rest now? Rest 6... 6 hours a day?!"

"Didn't human beings say that they want us to do coolies to make atonement? Why is the treatment here so good?"

"I haven't returned to their planet yet. It should be after arriving on their planet that I officially started working as a coolie."

"Now they still need us to work hard to collect fuel. Of course, the treatment should be better."

"Hey, it would be great if I could eat enough every day and rest for 6 hours a day. I just don't know how long such a good life can last..."

"You said, human beings are so kind to us, could it be, could it be that they want to make us strong, and then, and then what, slice research?"

"I never heard that they can treat prisoners so well..."

"Stop talking, I'm so scared..."
