In Gao Qi's eyes, Wang Ke was a precious and rare talent, but in Wang Ming Yuan's eyes, Wang Ke was a retard.
But what could Wang Ke do? What could Gao Qi do? Talent was hard to come by. A genius with a foul mouth was still a genius, so they had to endure it.
After coaxing and pushing Wang Ming Yuan into the car, Gao Qi finally felt a little more comfortable in his heart. Then, he had to get more people into the work of searching for the remnants of the enemy.
Wang Ke came back again because most of the work had been done. All he had to do was report.
"Captain, we've found out the number of enemies. There are a total of 46 armed men. 32 of them were killed, 4 of them were seriously injured, and 10 of them were captured alive. Seven of them are civilians, and the rest are all slaves. There are a total of 112 slaves."
Gao Qi was a little surprised and said, "None of them escaped?"
"None of them escaped!"
After speaking excitedly, Wang Ke continued, "This place has already received a call, so the armed guards here are ready for battle. When we arrived, they were all concentrated in several strong fortifications, but they didn't expect us to arrive so quickly. They really thought that we were escaping from the front. White showed up and shouted a few times, then immediately let us in."
"Did the news spread?"
"No! After we came in, we caught the enemy by surprise and captured a prisoner. He led the way to the communication room. The people inside were making a call, but we arrived before they could get through. The radio station didn't have time to send out the news. We came too fast. "
Gao Qi sighed and said, "Very good, very good. You did a good job."
The last time he praised Wang Ke, Wang Ming Yuan appeared. This time, when he praised Wang Ke again, Gao Qi was suddenly very worried that Wang Ming Yuan would appear again.
So Gao Qi couldn't help but look back, and then he found that Wang Ming Yuan really got out of the car again and walked towards them.
Gao Qi couldn't help but put his hand on the handle of his gun. Then he tilted his head and looked at Wang Ming Yuan with a warning look.
Wang Ming Yuan hesitated for a moment, but in the end, he did not succumb to Gao Qi's murderous gaze. Instead, he walked up to Wang Ke and said with a serious face, "Why are you here again?"
Wang Ke said helplessly, "Dad, I have to report the results of the battle."
Wang Ming Yuan took a deep breath and said, "You can't hold it in. Then tell me."
Was Wang Ming Yuan trying to find a sense of existence? After thinking about it seriously, Gao Qi felt that it might be true.
"Wait a minute."
Gao Qi stopped Wang Ke, then he looked at Wang Ming Yuan and said, "Professor Wang, I think you're the most knowledgeable and experienced person here, but the most important thing is your knowledge. I think the Hellfire Commandos need a scientist like you to be in charge of logistics. How about this, Professor Wang, can you go and count our spoils and register them? Don't miss a single gun or a single bullet. Such a heavy responsibility belongs to you."
Wang Ming Yuan looked as if he had not misjudged him, but he still waved his hand and said, "Actually, I'm not a professor. I don't teach graduate students, and I don't have a teaching position. I'm not even a researcher. I haven't returned to China yet, so I don't have a title. Well, it's not impossible if you just call me a professor, but … I'm not a professor after all. Why don't you call me Dr. Wang?"
"Can I call you Elder Wang?"
"Elder Wang … Okay, okay."
"Okay, Elder Wang. You go ahead. Wang Ke has nothing to do here. I'll just talk to him."
"Okay, I have to count the spoils of war first. I have to get busy."
Wang Ming Yuan left excitedly.
Gao Qi and Wang Ke couldn't help but sigh together. Then Wang Ke thought for a moment and said, "Oh right, there are seven people here, all women and children. This farm was bought by a family. The guards don't belong to the City of Sin, they're the farm owner's employees. The slaves are also not slaves of the City of Sin, they're the farm owner's private property. I want to ask how we should deal with this family."
How to deal with the slave owner was a very serious problem because it was related to how to deal with similar situations in the future.
"Well, kill them. Execute them in public. Let the slaves do it."
Wang Ke was silent for a moment and said in a low voice, "Mobilize the slaves to fight the slave owner? This is possible, but … there might be a problem."
"What problem?"
Wang Ke said in a low voice, "The slave owner himself died in battle. What's left is his wife, a daughter, and a son. They're all still young. There are also four women who are hired by the farm. They're from the City of Sin. They're not armed personnel or slaves. This … Kill them all?"
Gao Qi looked at Wang Ke. He found that Wang Ke's expression was a bit strange, as if he couldn't bear to do it.
There was no need to force Wang Ke to kill them. Moreover, this was related to their future path. Gao Qi said, "What do you think? Just say it."
Wang Ke said in a low voice, "I just feel that … Well, I don't have the heart to do it. But if I can do it, I'll do it."
"Don't be troubled. This is easy. Let's see the character of the slave owner's family. Pull them out one by one and let the slaves vote. If the slaves think that the master deserves to die, kill him. If they don't, let him go."
Wang Ke opened his mouth and said, "Democracy?"
Gao Qi smiled and said, "No, this is called a public trial."
"Okay, I understand. I'll go organize it."
Gao Qi sighed and said, "Originally, I wanted to kill all the slave owners and let the slaves do it. If this happens a few more times, the conflict between the slave owners and the slaves will be more intense. Their conflict will be more intense, and it will be easier for us to mobilize the slaves. But forget it, who asked me to be a Libra."
Wang Ke was stunned and said, "You're a Libra. What, what does this have to do with anything?"
"Libra pays particular attention to fairness. I also want to create a wheel of the era to turn and grind all resistance into fine powder. But I also feel that it is better to let those who deserve to die and those who deserve to live live. So I made the wheel a little smaller and let those kind people receive good karma."
Wang Ke suddenly understood and said, "I understand. But if you do this, the slave owners will treat the slaves better. If they treat the slaves better, the slaves won't be so eager to resist. This will indeed ease the relationship between the slaves and the slave owners. It's not good for our development and strength."
Gao Qi smiled and said, "Yes, but it's not a big problem. Because these things will take a long time to change. But now, we don't need too long to deal with the City of Sin. So let's do it."
