I cannot reproduce your problem:

C:\tmp>type master.pl
use strict; use warnings;
system 'slave.pl';

C:\tmp>type slave.pl
use strict; use warnings;
print "Slave here\n";

C:\tmp>master.pl
Slave here

Obviously the slave program prints to STDOUT just fine.
Please provide a minimal program that demonstrates your problem.

Oh sorry the perl is called by a master SHELL master.sh but not master
perl...

#!/bin/sh
`perl slave.pl $dirname`

So how to solve?

Don't use backticks. See man sh.

Send the output stream from your Perl program to STDOUT:

#!/bin/sh
echo `perl slave.pl $dirname`
