Chapter 464: Maid Jill (189)
"Xiongshan Castle is known as the City of Criminals, no matter how prosperous it looks, it will not change its rotten nature, and the overflowing hatred is already about to blow up Xiongshan Castle, even if war breaks out tomorrow, I won't feel strange."
Hearing Jill's words, Hennafero's eyes lit up slightly.
Xueshi's mouth opened wide in shock, with an expression of "why did you say it".
Hennafero heard a hint of disdain for Andro Mountain City and the contempt of King Barry in Jill's words, and she was delighted to be sure that Jill was indeed the one she was looking for.
"Really...... Sister Jill's words are very novel, and they are a little different from other people's statements, when I was in the academy, the classmates around me admired Xiongshan Castle very much, thinking that Xiongshan Castle was their model, and if they ruled a city in the future, they would definitely become the second Xiongshan Castle. ”
Henna looked like she agreed with Jill, but when it came to her lips, her words turned into slightly guiding words.
Jill smiled absently, her speculation was indeed right, Hena Ferro must know the truth about her father's death, or close to the truth, so Henna was in a hurry to find help, because Hena did not have full confidence, rather, it was impossible for anyone to have absolute confidence in the face of an enemy who might be the lord of a country.
"It's just the whimsy of the ignorant who is ruled by the lower body, the rise of Xiongshan City cannot be replicated, and it will be a new era dominated by science and technology in the future, if you still hold on to the old ideas, you will definitely be crushed by the torrent of the times."
Xiongshan City rose by chance because of Vitos, and without Vitos, Xiongshan City would not have existed.
And today, a hundred years later, new cities without exception have embarked on the fast track of science and technology, and the city walls are like thoughts imprisoned by the times, which have become shackles that restrict development.
The rulers who keep the old ideas, even if they exploit countless gold coins and build up million-level magic protection, they can't change the remnants of the old era in their bones.
Ignoring the strange-looking Henna Ferro, Jill knew that Henna definitely expected to hear such words, and only those who could say such things would have the courage to help her.
"Slave auction, huh!"
Jill showed a mocking expression mercilessly.
"What era is it now, the country outside the mountains has abolished slaves, even if there are nobles who keep slaves privately, they must be carefully protected, for fear of becoming an excuse to be attacked."
"The three empires, the kingdom of Sartre, the kingdom of Alan and other kingdoms are all the same, only the kingdom of Barry is an exception, and those who rebel against the times will be crushed by the times,"
It is true that there is still a slave trade in the Kingdom of Bari, but in order to maintain international standards, the human slave trade has been abolished on the surface, and the open trade of human slaves has been prohibited.
It's just that this is just a ban on the trade of human slaves, except for the human slave trade, most of them just change their names, and they seem to have changed, but in fact, nothing has changed much.
For example, the hottest slave auction in recent times is the mermaid auction held in the royal capital a while ago, and it has even spread throughout the entire Bari Kingdom.
Everyone knows that a lucky young nobleman personally led his troops to exterminate a fish-man tribe, and even because of his merit in offering mermaids, the new king rewarded the young nobleman in addition to great joy, which can be described as a step to the sky.
Even human slaves have not completely disappeared as most people imagine.
The official registration of human slaves is still accepted by the Kingdom of Bari, but the commercial registration has been abolished, and the individual registration application has still not been abolished, the only change is that the threshold has been raised, and it has become difficult for ordinary people to access this kind of thing.
But this did not affect the nobles at all, there should be a lot of slaves, for most nobles, this is just a slight collision of the upper and lower lips, just for people to see, it will not affect them at all.
Otherwise, how could the nobles of Xiongshan City just stop the slave auction, because everyone was each other.
It is true that I am auctioning off slaves, and I am indeed taking advantage of my position to provide the purchaser with proof of legal ownership of the slaves, but you are not much cleaner in private, and if you dig deeper, none of you will think about it.
"The northern mountains protect the kingdom of Bari and make it self-exclusive, and they will never know what the outside world is like without touching it."
Henna's eyes lit up as she listened, and Jill's undisguised words and attitude were like a shot in the arm, which really strengthened Henna's confidence.
Feasible.
Henna became more and more convinced that Jill was the one who could help her in the prophecy.
It's just that this matter involves territory and the future, and it must be cautious, holding back the excitement, Henna kept hinting with words, and Jill responded, and what Henna said became more and more explicit, and Jill also catered to it.
For a while, Henna and Jill were like a pair of sisters, and they regarded the words of ordinary people who would definitely be wiped out as sisters' whispers, unscrupulous.
Xue Shi was stunned when he heard this, shook his head fiercely, and secretly said, "Human beings are really terrible, especially human women are too terrible", while sneering, he quietly walked out of the carriage and became by the old butler's side, and the feeling of the carriage swaying made Xue Shi feel a lot more relieved.
The old housekeeper has already driven away from Xiongshan City, and the outline of Xiongshan City can be seen from a distance, and the appearance of the lanterns can be faintly seen, and the banquet of the nobles of the royal capital and the nobles of Xiongshan City has become the most festive scenery in recent times.
"Young Master Xueshi, aren't you used to staying in the carriage?" The old housekeeper said this gently, like an ordinary old man who took his children and grandchildren out to play.
Xueshi waved his hand and said, "Don't call me young master, I just want to come out and breathe, sometimes I just think that I may never be able to understand you." ”
The old butler showed a kind look on his face, and said slowly: "Even if it is a human being, it is difficult to understand between people, not to mention the difference between races. Xueshi, since you don't let me call you young master, you can also call me Ah Fu, in terms of age, but I took advantage. ”
Xueshi looked at Ah Fu with a little surprise, and blurted out: "You have already guessed my identity!?" Xueshi quickly regained his composure, because he didn't sense that Ah Fu had malicious intentions.
Ah Fu still maintained a kind smile, and did not say until Xueshi regained his composure: "The old man has not been this two moments, it is Lord Henna who has seen through your identity, and I was also surprised when I first heard it." ”
Xue Shi showed a sudden expression and said: "If it were her, it would make sense, people who are born very different from ordinary people should have a different vision from ordinary people, and it is because of people like Henna that human beings can occupy a place on the continent with a short lifespan and progress at an incredible speed." ”
Ah Fu opened his eyes slightly in surprise, and immediately returned to his kind appearance: "It is worthy of being a survivor of that era, and Lord Henna will be very happy to have your help." ”
Snow Stone didn't care about Alain's determined tone, and asked with interest, "How do you know that we will definitely help Miss Henna?" ”
Ah Fu showed a slightly sly smile and said firmly: "Didn't you just say that Miss Henna is a gifted person who is very different from ordinary people, and she can definitely bring Ferro to prosperity and strength, so there will be no mistake." "Ferro is a small town, and if you want to prosper, you need more land and resources.
"Hehe...... "Human beings are really terrible, this is Xueshi's heart.
But even if it's scary, I can't watch good people go ...... darkness.
Snow Stone's eyes gradually became firm.
