Slave work varies, and so do the slaves.

At a slave auction, the auctioneers would strip the slaves naked so that the slave owners could see if they wanted them or not. Usually, they would try to get muscular men and pretty women, and those sold for the highest.

The slave owners put the pretty women in the house to be a house slave, and the muscular men were used for field work.
