Chapter 60: The Natural Soil in which slavery grows

"And there is a real need for slave soldiers in the army, and there is also a need for manpower in the territory for work that others do not want to do, such as building bridges and paving roads, dredging sewers, collecting dung, dumping swill, etc., and always requisitioning farmers who need to serve the fields will not only cost money, but also waste the farmland that is cultivated. “

Master Chen was puzzled: "Isn't Baron Garcia going back on your word and destroying his promise?"

Old Hall waved his hand and said, "The lord has already explained this matter to the free people in the territory. The Baron said that this was the initial stage of development of democracy, and that this was the inevitable throes of the progress of social civilization, and that slavery could only be completely abolished by eradicating the aristocracy. At present, there are three mountains of great nobles, such as kings, big merchants, and big landlords, who are oppressing the people, so it is impossible to make real democratic changes. ”

"As for the homeless bankrupts and homeless people, they were all forcibly gathered by the baron, and it is said that they did not want these people to affect the appearance of the town. Those who could not work, the old and the weak, the sick and the disabled, were rushed to the mountain outskirts of the territory to fend for themselves, while the others who could work were hired to raise cattle for the nobles to mow grass, plant some experimental fields, and graft new varieties of hybrid grain according to the minimum food standard of two meals a day. ”

Oh~I see!~

Chen Xuyuan's heart suddenly brightened, isn't this the set of bureaucrats, the official words are two mouths, and the pros and cons are reasonable~

Looking at a few serfs with scorched black and yellow teeth, and their tooth sockets were the same as those of perennial alcoholics, it seemed that Master Chen secretly estimated that it was likely to be a smoker, drunkard, gambler, and other selling slaves who were not good at financial management and voluntarily went bankrupt.

"Hey, it's still in the initial stage of democracy~" One of the gray-haired old serfs chuckled with a strange face: "This foreign wizard master~ Although I haven't read the villain, I don't know if the people above really have a good future paradise." But at the beginning of this year, my fifteen-year-old cousin and niece was recruited by the lord to be her personal maid, according to what she told my cousin, Lord Garcia has changed thirteen "personal maids" in the past two years, all of them are plump girls between the ages of 13~17, which is really ~smack~".

Although he didn't finish speaking, the men present automatically made up a long "oh~" in their hearts, as if a wolf howl on the ground suddenly sounded, and suddenly the atmosphere on the scene was a little peachy and hormonal.

Master Chen also secretly said in his heart:! Chinese people don't have much discipline in the first place. And the only remaining communist core values and disciplines through the hometown seem to have been corrupted by women's and aristocratic life. However, Lao Tzu never expected how much character these Chinese people crossed over from the giant baby society. And it's hard to say whether that kid was an adult in mental age before he crossed over, or simply an undisciplined little bastard who couldn't be the future flower of the motherland.

The crowd continued to look at the old serf, listening to him say what he had not finished speaking.

"We are just small people, and we dare not be delusional or extravagant in the rest. No matter what kind of idealism the lord wants to pursue, or if he wants to rebel and become a king, or if he wants to fight with some other noble lord, we can only follow the orders and follow the nobles. If you can mix up some merit and benefits, it is best to dissolve the slavery, if you can get some land, and when you are old and can't do the work, you will have a way to support yourself, and it is not bad to rent to others to collect some tenant rent. As for other great visions, what utopian ideal towns, and paradises with 72 virgins, the ghost knows whether they are painting cakes and bragging to coax people to die, and no one has any hope that it can be realized. As for the dismissal of everyone's slavery~ I think the lord himself still enjoys the feeling of servant service. This matter~~~ Only God knows. “

The old serf, the eldest serf in that grade, squinted his eyes slightly and said something that was a bit taboo for the noble lord.

People in this era are really hard, the survival rate of babies born with extremely poor medical conditions is less than half, and the rich and noble families can also find a priest and donate a few hundred gold coins to let the baby release a blessing spell to improve the resistance, so as not to be too susceptible to disease and die, but this money may not be saved by civilians for a lifetime.

The middle class has a little surplus wealth, and if they unfortunately get sick, even if they can't afford to hire a noble priest, they can find some second- or third-rate crappy village shamans to release a few [Boost Resistance] or [Light Healing] to resist the past, or a half-hung alchemist who can use spells to buy a bottle of ineffective potion, maybe it can also cure a headache and brain fever that is not too serious.

But if it is a rural tenant farmer who has less than a gold coin in his pocket, those pharmacists who only have money in their eyes will definitely let the thugs throw the patient out and watch the patient die at his door, so those who can save people first and then pay for them in modern hospitals are already doctors with conscience.

As for free? That's definitely thinking too much.

However, the countrymen are cheap and hard-working, and they are not like the aristocratic lords - spend money to buy a disposable condom [lace belly] made of sheep intestines by a special person to prevent pregnancy. Therefore, a farmer's household may have three or four children, or even eight or nine children.

Although most of these children don't grow up much, they are either sent to the battlefield by the aristocratic lord to be cannon fodder in the end, or they have not been heard from after going out to work in the city, and they have not known their lives and deaths since then. There are also some wild children who have some spring dreams of making a fortune and go astray, join the gang, become a gangster at the bottom of the knife, or gather in the mountains and forests to become bandits and bandits. In the end, they were either exterminated by wealthy knights of justice wearing enchanted equipment, or they were exchanged for bounties by the regular army as if they were mowing grass. After death, they don't have a good reputation, and their souls have to go to the kingdom of those evil gods to be blinded and sinned. It's really pitiful.

Whether it's the earth, or the other world~ The bottom of the entire human race is always the most pitiful! Pathetic commoners! The plan of life, the randomness of death! Even when the contradiction between population and resources is not strong, nobles and officials will use them as human livestock and numbers because of the struggle for power and profit.

The human nations of this world are either more ruthless than the alien races around them, and their ambitions have been expanding outward. Either they are kept in captivity by aliens and caught between some big countries, not only fighting with each other, intending to annex each other and become bigger, but also having to accept the economic exploitation of the big countries.

And if some human countries are overpopulated, when the time comes, they will treat their own kind more violently and viciously than the behavior of foreign races slaughtering and driving two-legged sheep to barren land to fend for themselves, and even more vicious than Cixi, who "would rather give friends to domestic slaves"!
