Chapter 604: The Road Ahead
Mr. Mack is clearly not one of those people who has the fate of the protagonist, and under the threat of death and the temptation of money, he happily chooses a path to survive.
People say that the little people are pathetic, and it is true, in front of the big people, the little people are the pathetic "species", but there is another thing that cannot be ignored because of this. That is, although the little people are sad, they still have a choice!
This opportunity is at some point more precious than the majesty of the great man.
You must know that the people who can choose are the little people, and the big people never make choices, not because they have grown up and refuse to do multiple choice questions, but because they don't even have the power to make choices, let alone opportunities.
It is indeed not easy to explain who is more suitable for this society and who is more suitable for long-term survival in society.
Mr. Mack, as Doolin said, was a man who was very skilled in his work and enthusiastic about his business, and he wrote down the information on several documents, then took out the official seal, stamped it, and signed it, and the license was all completed in less than five minutes. With this license, Dulin can mine in a large area in the open, not that you can't mine without this license, but you can do many things in violation of the rules, but you must also be prepared to bear the corresponding consequences.
A small person who is secretly mining is discovered by the state government, and it may be a fine at best, and then a reprimand will be over. But if the big man secretly mining is discovered, it will be like a drop of blood in the seawater, and all the sharks dozens of kilometers away will start swimming towards this place quickly. Many of the magnificent buildings we see often start cracking and then crumble from an insignificant place!
Don't give people any chance to get themselves in trouble from the rules, that's the attitude of Doolin. Because the more upright and simple and clear the method, the more impeccable it is.
Doing the right thing is different from going the wrong way!
At the same time as obtaining this permit, Mr. Mack also very readily explained to Durin who was targeting him in the back, and this person was indeed Memnon as Durin had expected at the beginning. It was not surprising to him that Memnon had made the West his home base, where he wanted to become governor and find a way to ascend to the throne of the Empire's supreme power, so he would not allow another potential adversary to live in his base camp.
If Durin were in Memnon right now, he would have gone to the extreme.
On the afternoon of the day he got his license back, Durin had the head of the snake contacted, and he needed to buy at least five hundred slave miners, and hire about fifty to one hundred and fifty Imperial miners. The mixing of miners is a very common practice in the mining areas of the west, and the vast majority of mining areas are implementing this management method. In fact, to put it bluntly, there is no clever place, artificially establishing a class within the miners, the essence of the class is struggle, and the miners' groups in two different classes will hate and confront each other, which is one of the ways to ensure the "stability" of the mining area.
But Doolin's purpose was to put the slaves through a psychological process that would cause them to suffer, and then let them "find" their way to the future.
In addition, Dührin also had ten very hard-working miners from among the slave miners in the Andorran mines, and told them in front of all the slaves that they were freed early because they loved their current work and had a strong sense of responsibility for themselves. Not only can you settle your salary and leave here anytime and anywhere, but you can also continue to work here, and you can also move to the employee area and enjoy a salary that is almost the same as that of a local miner.
In an instant, the eyes of all the slaves changed terribly, and before that, Durin had made many promises to them, some of which had been fulfilled. For example, improved food and living conditions, and a slightly lower salary than the local miners, all of which were delivered. But these slaves did not behave too actively, and only a few of them behaved differently than others. The slaves who had been here a little longer had become apathetic after the initial agitation, for they thought it might be a lie woven by Doolin.
No matter how much they saved their salaries during their time here, what happened to Doolin in the three years he promised was still far away. What if they were killed before they were freed, or even after they were freed, and if everything they had was returned to Doolin? What was the point of Dürin's promise?
But this time is different, the people who are singled out are all obvious to them, they are all new slaves, so they are more eager to regain their freedom, and they have become numb without too much deception and harm, and they have taught everyone a living lesson - people should keep moving forward with dreams and hopes for the future.
The ten young men were also very excited, they were freed, and they were rewarded with a hundred pieces each, and they could leave the mines to nearby cities at any time, or even leave the empire and return to their hometowns.
Durin did not deceive them, when the open door was close at hand, no one could stabilize the fluctuating emotions in his heart, one by one, he forcibly held the throbbing in his heart, and rushed out of the gate with trembling legs that seemed to be slow, but almost like running.
Their figures running freely outside the gate were reflected in the blind and cloudy eyes of the slaves in the slave quarter, and their eyes became clear and thorough, and some of them cried out with excitement.
There were no guards with guns outside the gate, no traps they had imagined, and they saw the men running far, far away, until they couldn't see them, and their emotions calmed down a little.
If this is the end of the day, then it is obviously too underestimated for Durin, and on the second day, the third day, the fourth day, on the fourth day, all ten of them returned.
They changed their clothes, and their spirits looked completely different from before they left, at least they didn't look like they had been persecuted, and there was an inexplicable confidence and expectation on everyone's faces.
Yes, these ten men are back, and many of them had the idea of leaving this terrible country immediately, from this hellish west. But just as they took out the money to buy tickets to the West Coast, they couldn't help but freeze.
Human beings are face-loving animals, which is the same whether it is in this world or in another world, and it is an unbreakable truth.
Does it make sense to go back with physical wounds and inner hesitation?
Why were they able to be tricked into the Empire and sold as slaves?
Don't you hope to change yourself and change your family's situation through the efforts of your own hands?
They were deceived once, but they were lucky enough to run into Doolin and not be deceived a second time, and they began to hesitate, to hesitate, to think. If what Dühring promised could be kept, wouldn't they now be able to work as free men and receive almost the same wages and the same treatment as the local miners?
Why not stay here?!
Why not be here, in search of the future they once longed for?
So they came back, and it seemed like a small thing, but it was a big deal for the slaves in the mines. Many of the slaves looked at them through a high wall of barbed wire and steel bars, asking if they had met Durin outside and if they had been captured.
When they talked about the outside with their heads held high, and talked about the purpose of their return, all the slaves in the slave area were the real sensation!
The loud cheers seemed to put the entire mining camp in the midst of a grand festivities, and the slaves let out their pent-up fears, smiles on their faces, and hope in their eyes.
Yes, that's right, as long as you work hard to mine, you can not only get the long-lost freedom, but also be treated equally, you can return home with a sum of money decently, and accept the baptism of envy from your family and neighbors!
"Your method is terrifying!", Dove stood beside Doolin looking at the boiling slave quarter, the slaves hysterically shaking the barbed wire and high walls, and Doolin did not stop them except to keep them from doing anything more excessive. They need something to stimulate their numb nerves and give them more motivation.
Durin shrugged his shoulders, these were small things, "Let those ten people come up, I still have things for them to do." It's a bit of a waste for these people to stay here and dig for stones. ”
Ellis nodded and turned to leave, and it didn't take long for ten young people with a new look to be brought to the mine's office.
These young men respected Durin very much, and one by one they all bent down and honored him with the honorific title of "Lord During".
"It is very good that you have come back, and I see something different in your personality, in your morals, in your soul, and that you are destined to be different from other people, most people. Durin smiled and stood up, he pushed open the window and stood by the window and turned to look at the men.
The sun was behind him, and the golden and warm light fell on his shoulders, making him feel like he was bathed in sacredness, and even the golden glow became his foil. He raised his arms and clenched his five fingers tightly together, giving people an extraordinarily powerful visual impact!
He smiled and asked, "Do you believe it? From you, I see the future of the west!"
