Chapter 116: Don't Treat Orcs As Humans

Lao Niu is a bull orc. He has no name, and others call him Lao Niu.

Most orcs don't have names.

He is the oldest among these cattle orcs, in his forties, and he can't remember it clearly even if he is in his forties.

He followed the mouse orc family to Hongye City without any complaints. He had experienced too much of this kind of migration since childhood. He had long been used to it.

Compared with before, the only difference is that this time I came to a place where humans were, and even wanted to live in peace with humans.

Lao Niu didn't know much about humans. He just heard from others that humans were smart, cunning, weak, etc., and he thought so before yesterday.

But now he doesn't think so.

He didn't know what other humans were like, but the humans in Hongye City and the lord of Hongye City were definitely the kindest humans!

He not only gave himself the orcs three meals a day, but also built a house built by himself with stones, and even gave himself a job that could make money!

For some orcs, this simply saved their lives!

Although Lao Niu felt that he could get through this winter, he was not sure that his family could get through it, especially his child who was less than one year old.

It is very common for orcs to die prematurely. Lao Niu has seen it many times, but he doesn't want to see his children suffer this bad luck. If he has the chance, he is willing to give the best to the children so that he can take care of himself safely.

And now, there is this opportunity.

"As long as you work hard, food and accommodation are the most basic. I will also give you freely disposable salary every month. In addition, I have been recruiting more knowledgeable people recently and preparing to run a school to teach children how many people can read. Whether it is human or orc children, you can come to learn. Of course, the premise is that you work hard and don't be fooled!"

Seeing the city lord talking on the stage, Lao Niu knew that if his child wanted to have a future and not as useless as himself, then learning was essential.

Just like now, the most knowledgeable among the orcs is Lord Fox, followed by the rat orcs, and they are the commanders of the orcs.

The old cow tightened the several strips of cloth tied on his body, and tied a child with strips on his chest.

When a child first looks no different from a human baby, but if you look closely, you can see that his forehead has two very small horns, the same color as those on the old cow's head, but the horns on the old cow's head are long and thick, and look very intimidating.

Although the calf orc was tied very tightly, it may be because of the good binding skills. He did not cry or make a fuss. His whole big eyes stared at Lao Niu's chin, and even babbling, wanting to pull Lao Niu's beard with his hands, but unfortunately, his hands were tied and could not be stretched out.

The old cow looked down at the child, but said nothing. He turned his head to look at a cow orc who was a few sizes younger than him.

Compared with the two-meter-high old cow, this cow orc is much thinner, and the fat ones should be thin and fat. She is not as burly as the old cow, and her body is full of tendon flesh. Moreover, the horns on her head are very mini, not as scary as the old cow.

This is Lao Niu's wife, a female bull orc.

"Old Niu, we must do our best later and not let down the hope of the city lord!"

The wife holds the old cow's hand.

"Don't worry, I know!"

The old cow answered in a muffled voice.

Following these humans to the city wall, the old cow was still shocked when he saw such a high city wall again.

He could not imagine how the city wall could be built so high, and humans were really magical.

"Your task is very simple at present, to transport some materials outside the city and put them here."

The construction worker pointed to the base of the city wall.

Lao Niu found that some stones had been piled up here. Through the opened city gate, you can see that there was a large open space outside the city, with many large stones there.

It's just a matter of transporting things, it's really easy!

Lao Niu thought to himself.

"Okay, let's start working, each of you will be assigned a trolley."

He pushed the trolley to the door. Lao Niu imitated a human and moved a few stones on the trolley.

Seeing the man pushing the cart away with a groan, the old cow pushed it for a while.

Too light!

He remembered what Zhang Feng said - to work hard, just push these stones over, is it serious?

It definitely couldn't count, so the old cow added a few more stones.

Still light.

No, add it again.

Finally, when the twelfth stone was put in, Lao Niu nodded. He was actually not very satisfied, but the two-wheeled wooden hand-cart was so big that he couldn't put it down no matter how many of them were.

But, the old cow just started pushing it.

Bang!

The trolley was disintegrated.

It was crushed by the stones.

Lao Niu looked at his hands, and his eyes were a little confused. He wouldn't have caused trouble when he went to work the first day, right?

But this is not too heavy!

The calf orc in his arms didn't know what happened. After hearing a loud noise, he not only wasn't afraid, but instead screamed happily.

...

"Uh? Something happened?"

As soon as Zhang Feng returned to the castle, he heard news from the soldiers.

"Yes, a cattle orc broke our cart."

The soldier quickly answered.

"What's going on? The person wasn't injured!"

"It seems that the orc thought the cart had too few stones, so he put a few pieces and then..."

Zhang Feng was speechless. This shouldn’t be a matter of putting a few more pieces.

He was involved in the design of this two-wheeled cart. Although it is made of wooden, its load capacity is still quite good. There is no problem with pulling a half-ton of weight.

Obviously, this cow orc is overloaded.

"Let's go and have a look first."

Zhang Feng has to remind the orcs that there are tens of millions of roads, the first is safety, and it cannot be overloaded illegally.

However, when he arrived at the city gate and saw the current situation, Zhang Feng was so surprised that his mouth was wide open that he could stuff an egg.

A cow orc, who was visually about two meters tall, was trotting. He carried a few stones on his shoulders that were at least four meters tall, holding them with one hand to prevent the stone from falling. His other hand touched his chest from time to time. Only then did Zhang Feng realize that there was an orc child tied to his chest, as if it was a calf orc.

This scene completely shocked Zhang Feng.

This is unscientific!

Let’s not talk about how he stacked these super-large stones together, nor how he could walk steadily to prevent the stones from falling off. Just talk about how he could carry these big stones!

According to the density of common stones, one cubic cube is about 2.5 to 3 tons. Zhang Feng visually estimated that the stones on the shoulders of this cow orc had at least 4 cubic meters.

In other words, this orc carries something weighing about ten tons and walks vigorously, and still has the time to take care of the children in his arms?

Not only Zhang Feng was shocked, but all the humans here were shocked.

Everyone has a deep understanding of how heavy the stone is. It can carry something weighing more than ten tons? You are right!

The orcs had normal faces, and some even imitated the cow orc, put down the wooden cart in their hands, and went to carry the stones themselves.

Carry it yourself how fast! That small cart is a burden!

After the cow orc sent more than ten tons of stones safely to him, Zhang Feng asked someone to call him over.

"City, Lord City?"

Seeing that Zhang Feng was coming, the old cow was no longer the idle-wiggling look he had just walked. He was a little nervous, after all, he had just broken someone's cart.

"Sorry, Lord, I'll put your cart..."

Lao Niu's voice was muffled, but before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by Zhang Feng.

"Are you injured?"

Lao Niu was stunned for a moment, then he realized that Zhang Feng was asking about the trolley being damaged, and there was a warm current in his heart.

"No, my skin is hard and I won't be hurt!"

After saying that, Lao Niu seemed to remember something and quickly continued:

"Thank you, Lord, for your concern. Don't worry, I will definitely pay you the car after I save money!"

Zhang Feng did not answer his words, but looked at the forehead of the bull orc, and asked in surprise:

"Don't you feel tired when you just carried those stones?"

"Tired? Are you tired?"

Lao Niu scratched his head, wondering why Zhang Feng asked such a question. Just carrying this little stone can make you tired!

If these stones were not easy to put on, it would be fine if he carried a few more pieces.

Zhang Feng was a little surprised. He circled around the old cow twice and found that compared to humans, he seemed to be no different than a human being, except for growing taller and stronger!

Zhang Feng even poked the bulging muscles on the cow orc's arm. In addition to being a little harder, it was almost the same as his own!

The calf orc in his arms looked at Zhang Feng curiously. Zhang Feng made a face at the calf orc while the big cow orc was not paying attention.

But the calf orc was not afraid, and even opened its mouth.

Lao Niu didn't know why the child in his arms suddenly became happy. He was afraid that Zhang Feng would be unhappy, so he quickly comforted him.

Zhang Feng looked at the orc dad and fell into deep thought.

He had tried his best to overestimate the orcs, but he didn't expect to underestimate them!

Seeing the performance of this bull orc is a bit like opening the door to the new century for Zhang Feng.

He had always regarded these orcs as humans before, but now it seems that he can not treat them as humans at all!

Treat it as a machine, there is no problem at all!

Looking at Zhang Feng who was in deep thought, Lao Niu was a little nervous, wondering if Zhang Feng would punish him.

After a moment, Zhang Feng came to his senses and said:

"You did a good job, you don't have to pay for the cart!"

Zhang Feng reached out and patted his shoulder, then said to the soldier next to him:

"If the orcs feel that our tools limit their work, they can choose the way they like."

"yes!"

The soldier replied quickly.

"By the way, what's your name?"

Zhang Feng asked as he looked at the cow orc.

"I don't have a name, everyone calls me Lao Niu."

The cow orc scratched his head.

Zhang Feng frowned and asked:

"Then how do you distinguish each other? If you orcs are all called Lao Niu, how do you know you are calling you?"

"I don't know either. If my wife calls me, I will definitely hear it!"

A somewhat shy smile appeared on the face of the cow orc.

Well, I was forced to eat a mouthful of dog food.

"I don't know how you distinguish each other. Maybe there are special methods, but for us humans, names are still relatively important. If you don't have names, it is inconvenient. I can't remember them. Call you... Niu Dali in the future!"

Zhang Feng felt that the name he gave was quite good. He was so strong that he could call it Dali.

"Awesome...Awesome Dali?"

The old cow was stunned for a moment, and then thanked him very gratefully:

"Thank you for your name, thank you for your name! From now on... I, Lao Niu, will also have a name!"

Seeing Niu Dali happy like a child with a weight of more than 500 pounds, Zhang Feng waved his hand.

"Okay, you go there first and work hard!"

"yes!"

Niu Dali left happily, and while walking, he was muttering his name and so on.

Zhang Feng looked at Niu Dali's departure back and looked at the orcs carrying stones like Niu Dali.

Some crazy ideas gradually appeared in Zhang Feng's mind.

He thought of modern industrial equipment, such as trucks, excavators, mixers, cranes...

There are no such things in the other world, and no matter how fast the construction speed is, it will not be much faster.

But what if there are these devices?

Don't have an engine? These orcs are completely personal engines!

"Go and ask the Knight Marlowe and the Orc to come to the castle to see me!"

Zhang Feng ordered the soldiers.

"yes."
