The Rise of Iceland

At the end of November 1627 in the Julian calendar, more than 130 people in Hadar Manor took the Thor's Hammer and the Hope to leave the waterfall valley, follow the coastline of Vinland Island all the way eastward, and finally arrived at the transfer corner in the afternoon of the next day. .

After a busy relocation, the people of Hadar Manor have moved into the center of Hagerburg. This is the inner castle that Hagrid had built by white slaves and Indian slaves before. It is now nearing completion and can be moved in, just for Hagrid. Dar and others live.

More than one hundred people lived in Naiburg for more than half, and the remaining households lived in a few wooden houses around. The original owners of the wooden houses were white slaves. Hagrid gave them wood and land so that they could build their own houses and wipe them out. Up their grievances.

In many cases, people of the same race may not be more kind than foreigners. White slaves were also a history of blood and tears in the era of the great seas and colonies. The industrial revolution that followed continued to squeeze white civilians, and the serfdom in Eastern Europe was even more so. It lasted until the twentieth century before being ended.

　　 Hagrid’s white slaves were all people who could not survive in their hometowns. Now Hagrid gave them hope that they were very obedient and worked hard.

Hadar only observed the situation in Hadar for the first two days. Even if Hadar asked his servants to report the situation to Hadar, indicating that he would obey Hadar's orders in the future, Hadar still did not intervene in many things, just let everyone as usual. Then he instructed the people of Hadar Manor to work with the people of Hegerberg, and then observed silently.

　　 Since the people of Herut Village were more trusted by Hadar, Hagrid and others, in a few days, Hadar and Hagrid had a high status. The chiefs such as Hadar and Hagrid naturally had the highest status.

The second is the Icelanders. The white slaves basically don’t dare to offend the Icelanders. Even if there is a dispute, they will swallow their anger, because the original housekeepers of Hegberg are the servants of the Hadar family and are from the village of Groot, so he will naturally favor himself. People do things unfairly.

　　 The real savage slaves are worse than the white slaves.

　　 There are only more than 600 people in Haigberg, and factions and hierarchies have emerged from the primitive society. Olaf feels that this is not conducive to everyone's future development.

　　 Now the white slaves swallowed their breath, holding their breath in their chests. Although there will be no riots, they may not be loyal to the Hadar family after they have obtained the status of free people.

　　 As for the savage slaves, they are different in race and culture. They will not obey at all. They can only rule with iron and blood before assimilation.

　　 Thinking of solving the problem of the disagreement between the white slaves and the Icelanders as soon as possible, Olaf began to think about the methods of governing people like animals in ancient and modern times, and wanted to find the best way for the Wenlan group.

　　 Leaders such as Hadar and Hagrid may have also noticed that Icelanders have the highest status overall, but they are happy that this phenomenon occurs because they feel that their roots are actually Icelanders, followed by white slaves.

　　The Icelanders of Hagerburg led the white slaves to start fishing in the Musk Ox River every day, hunting in the surrounding valley forests.

　　Because there are not many medium and large animals such as reindeer and black bears on Vinland Island, it is mainly small animals such as rabbits and birds.

　　The skins of these animals are peeled off and air-dried for storage, while the meat is marinated and dried for storage.

　　Because the Wenlan Southeast Peninsula has the warmest environment and well-developed water system, there are many animal species, enough for hundreds of people.

　　 A few days later, Hadar discussed with Hagrid and decided to start building larger towns on the plains in front of Hagerburg before the onset of winter to prepare for the future expansion of the population.

Hagrid naturally agreed with his brother’s decision, so the slaves began to cut wood and quarry under the leadership of the white slaves. The white slaves who quarried and cut trees with sharp tools were all white slaves. The Indian slaves and the Ekismo slaves were only responsible for the most Heavy handling work.

　　 A large area of ​​vacant land in front of Hagerburg was slowly cleared out. If the houses are fully built, the area will exceed the village of Herut. Hadar plans to call this city of Herut in the future.

　　 Hadar and Hagrid first let the white slaves rise in the middle of the square, and then build the largest two-story wooden house, which will be used as the center of the city and their own manor house. After all, if there are conditions, it is better to improve living conditions.

　　 Hagrid was inspired to train militiamen in his manor every day before learning about Hadar, and he began to select more than a dozen strong white slaves half-out of production and brought them together for training.

　　 With a few light rains, the weather in Wenlan became colder and colder. The surface of the stream began to freeze in mid-December, and the savage slaves began to appear sick and even died.

　　 Hagrid is very experienced in dealing with these things, and immediately ordered other slaves to throw sick and dead slaves into the distant valley, so as not to spread the disease or even form a plague.

　　 Olaf couldn't bear to look at it, and he also heard these things from the crowd.

　　 By the end of December, heavy snow covered the sky overnight, turning all the places visible to the naked eye near Hagerburg into a snowy kingdom of ice and snow.

　　 Slaves and white slaves stopped work a few days ago and huddled together in the cave cabins to keep warm.

　　 Olaf’s family was warming up around the fireplace in the wooden house in Hagerburg. Now it is icy and snowy outside. Olaf estimates that it is about minus ten degrees. Anyone will freeze to death if they stay out soon.

　　 So now the entire Hagerburg people stay at home and do not go out. For example, Hadar Olaf’s house and other chiefs’ homes have wood fireplaces for heating, which is rather comfortable and comfortable.

　　 But the afflicted white slave had to cover two sheepskin quilts on the bed of the wooden house to ensure that he would not be frostbitten to death. Only when he could not hold his stomach would he be hungry and grind his teeth to cook some oatmeal belly.

The slaves in the cave are even more miserable. They can't eat food with oily water on weekdays. Now they only have a pot of porridge made from grass roots, dried fish, black beans, etc. every day. Although they are not hungry, they are definitely far from being full. There are thousands of miles.

　　 The slaves who did not have fat to provide calories hugged and shivered in the innermost part of the cave. In a few days, they would freeze and starve one or two elderly and frail people.

However, every Indian slave looked numb and seemed to have become accustomed to the misery of life. After all, whether they were slaves to the whites or captured in the tribe, their fate was either killed or even sacrificed to the gods. Either he was tortured to death as a slave.

　　 The fireplace burns warmly, and Piccou stood in front of the fireplace and picked up the wood with tongs, so as not to press together and smoke back to the owner.

　　 Olaf dressed in linen clothes was sitting in front of the fire and drinking milk in deep thought. His younger siblings took a nap in the back room.

Brother Ulav and his father Hadar drank hot butter beer with Hagrid, Kadir and Heine and ate roasted bacon not far away. Katrin and Kadir’s wife and daughter made small pieces for Heine’s upcoming child. clothes.

　　 In ancient times when productivity and technology were low, it was only in winter that they could only stay at home.

The people of the Ming Dynasty in the Far East may still be able to go out in winter. Even if they get cold, ask the doctor to grab two doses of medicine. But for Europeans who are short of medicines and have no real doctors, if they go out in winter, they can only get cold. I can bleed and wait for death.

　　 The tradition of Icelanders for hundreds of years is to live with friends and family after winter, eat, drink and play every day, and hide in the room to spend the winter.

　　 It is also because of this lifestyle that Icelanders are more united and more trustworthy between relatives and friends.

　　If you are in Iceland, the cat will stay in the house for at least five months, but Wenland is warmer than Iceland. Olaf estimates that it will be warmer in February next year.

The elder brothers and fathers drink and chat every day, match wrist-wrestling and other wrestling games. Olaf is not interested in these. Every day under the service of Pikku, he spends his time in clothes and stretches out his hands to open his mouth. At the same time, he slowly thinks about the sea. The management staff of Gerburg and the plan for future development are being perfected, and they will tell their father and uncle when they are ready to think about it.
