Chapter 149

"Some of the words are ugly, but they are true. That is freedom, and it cannot be eaten. Do you think I'm right? Her Majesty. ”

"Go on." Daenerys spat out the words with some difficulty.

"The meaning is simple, you have freed hundreds of thousands of slaves, but have you solved their livelihood problems? Free thought does not fill the stomach. Slaves became freemen, but they lost their livelihood. The son of the Harpy is still hunting down the freedmen. All of this has made your noble deeds begin to dim. No matter how much those freedmen love you at first, if you don't have enough to eat, they will eventually ...... Change your opinion. Am I right? Her Majesty. ”

Sasan glanced at Su Yuan with some surprise. She had long known that Su Yuan had advised her father in the turmoil of King's Landing, making the Stark family the final winner. But this was the first time she had seen Su Yuan play against a king.

Daenerys's breathing became slightly rapid, and it was obvious that Su Yuan's words had hit the sensitive point in her heart.

"Meereen City has thousands of years of accumulation, and I have enough food, as well as gold coins, to supply everyone." She still said stiffly.

And yet you didn't. I'm sure you've got the simple truth. There are some things that can't be started. ”

Daenerys didn't do this, which is a sign of a slightly online IQ. After all, as long as she opens the warehouse and releases grain once for free, it will form an extremely bad beginning. Even if Meereen City was rich, it would never be possible to support hundreds of thousands of unemployed slaves for too long.

"Do you have a better way?" Daenerys finally asked the question.

"Nope. It's almost an unsolvable question. There are quite a few fields outside the city of Meereen. Although the soil is not good, it is not impossible to cultivate. Now, however, Meereen has no access to those lands. Because as long as you go out of the city, you will be attacked at any time, the son of the harpy, Yuankai, and Asbota. If you send the Unsullied to farm, you will lose control of the security in the city.

All of this is a sign of a result. Your Majesty, you have never really occupied Meereen, ruled Meereen. Ruling a city is a comprehensive and complex process. You have simply defeated the rulers of the upper echelons of the city. But it didn't clear their tentacles. It's like cutting off the branches and leaves of a tree, but its roots are still growing and spreading in the ground. Nothing can save your reign if you don't fix it. ”

"So the root is still in the Harpy's son? Looks like you already have a way to deal with them. ”

"I can't talk about it, because it's not a good way. But there should be some effect. First, you need everyone's help, and second, you need to issue some decrees. The harsher kind. ”

Su Yuan's strategy was simple. First, start a war of the masses. Second, in troubled times, we should use heavy codes.

…………………

Go back to your room. Sasan said to Su Yuan with some complaints.

"Why are you helping her? You know, the Starks, but one of the families that raised an army against the Targaryens. Our two families are enemies. If one day, she returns to the Seven Kingdoms......"

"Sasanian, don't you find that she is a very special ruler?"

"Is it up to her to free the slaves? The Seven Kingdoms had long since abolished slavery. ”

"No, it's not just that. Think about how much she suffered, and then what she did? Most of the rulers of this world have one thing in common. That is, before they became rulers, they were all very amazing people. And when they become rulers, they become the kind of people they once hated the most. From ancient times to the present, few people have been able to break away from this pattern. Because the chair under the buttocks, determines their thoughts.

But Daenerys is different. After becoming a ruler, she remained her old self. At least most of the time. She did not inflict her own pain on someone weaker than her. It's about trying to get more people out of what she's been through. She is a game-changer in this world. And the changemakers are lonely and miserable. ”

Later generations scolded Daenerys's death overwhelmingly. The screenwriter gave her eight seasons of hanging, just to let her die?? But from the point of view of a changemaker, her death is also a matter of course. Because since ancient times, the first generation of reformers will sacrifice for their ideals.

But Su Yuan still didn't admit that it was thought of by those screenwriters. He always firmly believes that that those idiots just made a plot kill in order to end it quickly. (The point is that there is no foreshadowing, and the story of ten episodes is told in two levels, which is pure nonsense.) ）

On the other side, Daenerys was also quietly thinking about what Su Yuan said today.

"Sir Jorah, do you think that man has a point?" Jorah on the side saluted and said.

"I'm a rough guy and don't understand these things, but it still sounds reasonable. But His Majesty can't just trust him, we don't know where he came from yet. The ship that had been sent to spy on them before. It was a maritime ship, but all the crew had disappeared. Only four guards were on board. Very strong swordsmen, our people can't get to them at all. ”

"An eccentric man of unknown origin."

"Yes, this person feels very dangerous to me."

"Hehe, you know what? He took pity on me. Jorah, don't you see that? Those words he said at today's banquet. He's pitiful for me, for what happened to me, for what I'm doing, for what I'm doing. I don't know who he is, but ...... Give it a try. ”

The next day, something big happened in Meereen. Her Majesty has issued a number of new decrees. Decree against the Harpy's Son.

Lianzai: In view of the four Harpy Sons who were arrested earlier, they were covered by a large number of traders and freedmen during their lifetimes. Now, a new decree has been introduced, the Law of Sitting. When a vendor is found to be in contact with the Harpy's son. He, and all the vendors around him, will be punished in the same way.

If you want to avoid punishment, you must report all the Harpy Sons around you before the Queen verifies them. The same is true for all Freedman housing estates. Any block where a Harpy Child appears will be punished for the entire block. Unless someone reports it in advance. All whistleblowers will be rewarded with a minimum of one gold coin.

In ancient China, the method of sitting together was generally ten households in a row, but Daenerys was more ruthless. She sat down the street. And in order to justify the new decree. The four traders arrested yesterday, and the eleven around them, were collectively hanged in the square. Fifteen corpses, shakily hung in the square. made the original undercurrent of Meereen City directly turn into a monstrous wave.
