Chapter 244: Sprouting

Little by little.

Step by step.

Whether it is the kingdom or the empire, whether it is the workshop directly under Lu En, or the workshop that he has established by himself.

Slowly, firmly, gradually, it spreads outward.

The seeds that Lu En had originally sown had already begun to sprout, and although they were still very young, they had already sprouted.

How much sweetness does it take for a person whose heart is full of pain to suppress the bitterness of life?

The answer is that a little bit is enough.

People don't need to get ahead, they don't need to be famous for a hundred years or they don't need to be stinking for thousands of years to be happy.

So, whether it's Lu En, other people, workshops, or settlements,

They are just poor peasant tenants who treat people as cattle and horses all their lives, and if they encounter such an organization and have hope, they will sacrifice their lives to follow, because following such an organization, this life is meaningful, like a person.

Because of this, the sprouts hold their heads high, and the sparks gradually shimmer on the ground.

However, the gods who dwell high in the heavens disdain to look at the sprouts on the soil.

However, the nobles in the canopy of the palace never cared about the slightest spark on the ground.

What they will notice is the glorious Lu En, an extremely terrifying magic9, a terrifying being who can be blessed by the power of the realm and temporarily upgraded to level 10.

If you want to live freely, you can't be too radiant, because there will be people staring at you.

Therefore, Yurahir and Sid unanimously made a judgment that the king of monsters would definitely be destroyed after blooming, and there would be no improvement in the status quo.

However, only Lu En himself knows that all this is intentional by him.

A nation with many heroes is an unfortunate nation, but it always needs heroes as a guide, whether it is a target or a road sign.

He created the province of Anluo, which flew so high that everyone thought that he would build here freely, make great achievements, and use this place as a base.

So they weren't worried about the King of Monsters being able to grow rapidly, because Angleo was very barren, and there was no shortage of land there, but there was a serious shortage of real land, that is, arable land.

Many of the sloping and dry ground can also be said to be slippery, because landslides often occur.

Most of the non-saline land that can be cultivated is a strip between a crevice and a stream. But even in these places, the land may be cultivable just for seeing, but the crops are severely limited by very steep slopes, both numerically and qualitatively, and only in the very limited fertile valleys can rice and other valuable crops be grown, and it is difficult to survive elsewhere.

Lu En also knows this. But he still did it, in the eyes of others, this is for the heart of the Empire, to make the Empire believe that he will not support troops for his own use, will not rebel, at most it is to fly high, and it will be suppressed quickly, and the background of any big force is far beyond the king of monsters.

This is the stupidity of the aristocracy and the church.

Because Lu En has no intention of building Anliu into a prosperous area at all, this is limited by geography.

His real base! It's in the empires, in the kingdoms, and even within the church!

He doesn't need a place at all, because there are thousands of people who are still muddy and oppressed! Where they are, where they gather, is Luen's territory!

The short-sighted emperor and the pope, they all regard Lu En as an enemy, beware of Lu En's magic, Kara's dragon claw, for fear that magic and dragon claw will disrupt their rule, they don't know at all, the real power has never been in Lu En, his magic can never shake the rule of the empire, but the power of the people can!

The king of monsters itself is just a bait, but the disease of ringworm, but the political system of the entire empire, as well as the tens of billions of suffering people below, is the real evil! It is enough to subvert the entire empire, smash the heavenly realm, and smash the emperor's authority!

Now, though, it's a step at a time.

Lu En held his chin in his hand and sat in the desert of Ann Luo, looking at the scenery in the distance.

There are few real mountains in Angleo, only an endless stream of broken hills, which change strangely in their shadows and colors as the daylight shifts, until at dusk the purple mountains form a magnificent sea, and the dark velvety folds descend from the top, like a maiden's pleated skirt, until they reach into the ravines that seem to be as deep as they seem.

Everyone else was on their way to repair the settlement, and the aftermath of the battle had broken a lot of things, and only Lu En was here to enjoy a rare quiet time.

He hadn't been here for long, and half an hour earlier, after a casual meal, Kara was still tidying up, he picked up a lamp and turned to the distant hill, not to participate in the reconstruction.

There were some books next to him.

Customs, anecdotes, alchemy essays, humanities and history.

Read more and learn more about the empire.

In addition, slavery is indeed deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, so there is no good way to do it except to innovate the means of production and promote the spirit, which will take time to grind.

Reading books, looking at the scenery, pondering problems, thinking about plans, time passed quickly, and soon it was late at night.

The night wind blew, Lu En looked out, then disappeared and returned to the room, Kara had already made the bed, but the black dragon itself did not know where to run.

With the help of the craftsmen, everything was rebuilt quickly, and by this time it was almost complete, and everyone went back to their rooms to sleep.

There was only one Elaine here, and the golden dragon knelt on the chair with two feet, holding the table with his hands, and ** was also pressed on the table, snoring in his sleep.

Perhaps the ratio of connective tissue to fat is higher, and it can be seen that the elasticity is quite good.

Lu En was puzzled, why do you say that a pure oviparous race like the True Dragon does not need the ability to lactate at all?

She was lying here in this strange position, as if she was waiting for Lu En to come back, but before she could fall asleep, Lu En didn't wake up when she came back.

It's also very strange that Kara never sleeps, she says that she sleeps for a hundred years at a time every two hundred to three hundred years, and then she can stay awake for a long time, but Elaine is different, not only does she sleep for a long time every two hundred years, she also insists on sleeping for more than twelve hours every day.

From this point of view, Elaine must have lived longer than Kara, and I heard that the lazier the person will get, the longer he will get.

Thinking of this, Lu En unbuttoned his robe, put on a thin liner, lifted the quilt and lay in, leaving Elaine to sleep on the table alone, and he began to rest.

He hadn't slept in a while, and despite being a transcendent creature, it was still good to get some sleep, and it would relieve mental fatigue.

He was already tired.

He can teleport and move around the empire, so in fact, he has completed the system of those scattered workshops, and the rest is supplemented by the local leader.

Not all jobs are like the protagonists in those of them, giving orders, fighting bravely, and constantly challenging with blood to win.

More things are mundane, trivial, but vital enough to lay everything down.

He knew almost everything about the local situation from the reports from various places, for example, he knew that the Star Maple King City, where Livia was located, was the largest and best in the current development, there were one hundred and fourteen professional craftsmen, forty-six were married, and only twenty had children, in addition, in order to maintain their development, Livia also had several quilt factories, a shoe factory, a hosiery factory, a pharmaceutical workshop, and a pharmacy, and two doctors to see the outpatient clinic.

The initial source of money for the establishment of these assembly line factories was to rely on the income of each workshop, and the refined iron produced by the blast furnace and assembly line was a great benefit.

Factory workers are paid by the piece every month, room and board are provided by the workshop, workers can get free medical care, work injuries can be compensated, of course, there is a limit, they have no ability to treat incurable diseases, but simple illnesses and injuries are not difficult to deal with.

Female workers are given four months of leave during pregnancy and childbirth, no wages are deducted, and a simple nursery is set up for the workers' children, but as far as Lu En knows, most of the children are still basically the same as wild children, and there is no solution to this problem for the time being, unless some of them are allowed to take care of the children, but it is unlikely, there are not enough manpower.

Lu En came up with an idea for Livia to clear the red-light district, rescue some people, and rescue the oppressed prostitutes, most of whom were young girls who, with some education and enlightenment, should be able to do simple work as a nurse and take on the job of taking care of children.

Mother-working workers receive a part of the "social insurance", which is a fund derived from the deduction of 10 per cent of the wages of all workers plus the same allowance within the workshop.

The workshop spends 2 percent of the total salary for the workers to pay for the entertainment of the workers, and they sometimes invite the troupe to perform, and of course, more simply buy sweets for everyone to try, usually once a week, and the workers are very happy with it.

These funds, which are jointly managed by the federation of trade unions and workers' organizations, work six days a week, eight hours a day, without rest, and work twenty-four hours a day in three shifts, perhaps the busiest place in the world in this day and age, because the vicious system of work of three shifts has not yet been born in this world.

It sounds good, but in reality the status quo is still very bitter, and all these regulations seem to be progressive, after all, in order to survive, it is already Lu En's best efforts to achieve this situation.

Livia's workshop had a hospital, a school, and spacious dormitories,—— but it was in a very rudimentary environment, with no bathing equipment, not enough medicines, not enough manpower, and even not enough lights.

They had a food supply, but all Livia could provide was enough staples to feed everyone, with very few vegetables, seasonings, and the occasional meat, nothing delicious.

The situation is still grim, and it is too hard for the modern workers that Lu knows of it, a sweatshop, but not for these people.

Their past life was more miserable, and it is only by comparing it with the past that it is clear why they are so loyal to the workshop and so happy with the present life, where they used to sit or stand there for fourteen or five hours a day, and then fall asleep on their beds, that is, on the dirty quilts laid under the tools, and then repeat themselves to death all year round.

As the terrible mortality rate of the prostitutes in Star Maple King City indicates, the tens of thousands of corpses collected in the streets and rivers of Star Maple King City, as well as in the mass graves on the outskirts, are the bodies of the destitute poor, and the starving corpses and drowned corpses of their children who cannot afford to feed, and they feel very happy in comparison with this life.

For these workers in the city of Star Maple or the Duchy of Aurang, no matter how primitive and simple their life may be, at least it is a healthy life, with exercise, fresh air to breathe, freedom, dignity, hope, all of which have room for full development.

They know that no one is making a fortune by squeezing them, that the fruits of their hard work will eventually pay off for themselves, these workers are uneducated, but they are not stupid, they realize that they are working for themselves and for their fellow citizens around them, and they say that they are in a gang, a federation.

So they attach great importance to two hours a day of reading and writing, political lessons, theater troupes, why do they seriously participate in individual or group competitions in sports, culture, hygiene, posters, efficiency, despite the pitiful prizes.

Because all these things, which were practical to them, were things that they had never enjoyed before, and which had never been found in any other workshop in the world, all these things opened before him the door of life, the door of hope.

Lu En is also very satisfied, although everything he has created lacks enough material, he has the spirit of inevitable success!

This is his real plan, the so-called farming is not a savior with a one-click quick golden finger, with ridiculous and pitiful fantasies to dominate the world.

It's not compassion, it's not a gift, it's not about whether anyone waits for a savior to come.

Just from the heart,

But it has nothing to do with personal gain or loss,

Countless people have practiced the goal of decades, centuries.

With all kinds of past plans, summaries, plans, and the future circling in his mind, Lu En fell into a deep sleep.

There was nothing to say all night, and the next day, Lu En simply turned over and got up, and Elaine had already slept on the ground, of course, she still slept very soundly, snoring, fortunately she didn't drool, otherwise it would be difficult to wash.

Dragon saliva is a very high-grade material, ambergris is a wonderful thing, but if it is not collected well, the consequences will be very serious, such as a dragon who does not sleep well, after sleeping for a hundred years, saliva can often corrode the ground into a large hole.

Ambergris is not corrosive, this corrosion is caused by magic and forms a mass of magic that is difficult to reach and can be fatal to ordinary people.

After getting up and stretching, Lu En was about to do today's things.

At this moment, he suddenly saw the elderly, who was walking towards him.

"Rare guest." Lu En said hello.

"I came for you." The elder said with a smile.
