After reaching an agreement with Li Xiniwei on the relevant matters, Su Xiao began handling the aftermath.
First was the issue of the pig-headed people's treatment. There had originally been thirty-six pig-headed people brave enough to stand up and resist. During the assault on the Beast Race guards' defenses, thirty-six had died until only six remained—pig-headed people such as Houseman and Steel Fang.
The remaining 637 pig-headed people would continue mining. They were actually reserve combat forces, so their treatment could not be lacking either. Their working hours would be reduced from twenty hours a day to twelve. Once their numbers increased, eight hours would be more reliable. Three groups of pig-headed people would be assigned to each mine, rotating every eight hours for uninterrupted work around the clock.
During wartime, all pig-headed people who were to participate in battle would stop mining and conserve their strength.
Besides working hours, there was also the issue of food. Fifty units of premium food remained. If they ate freely, it would last about eight days. That was not a problem. Within two or three days, Su Xiao would go to the fortress city of "Watchtower" for a major shopping trip.
With working hours and food arrangements settled, the next matter was rest. The pig-headed people had originally slept in sleeping troughs. Those places were extremely unfavorable for forming groups—in other words, they could not cultivate an atmosphere of unity. That had to change.
There were quite a few multi-person dormitories on the fortress's third floor where the Beast Race had once lived. They could house around 200 pig-headed people. As for the remaining 400-plus, the sleeping troughs would be dismantled and thrown out. They would then retrieve bedding from the warehouse and sleep on the floor on the first level. Pig-headed people
