Best Answer

During the Middle Ages, nearly all labor was provided by serfs. Most medieval countries did not permit slaves. Serfs were mostly farmers, but they worked in transportation, manufacture of various products, helping masons and carpenters on buildings, doing forestry, and really any work that was simple labor.
