Chapter 52 Coins, drifting for half a life, may worship Caesar as a father-in-law
"If you don't see the coffin, you won't die.."
Victor sneered a few times and began to read the contents of the contract aloud.
...
"Consignee, Francis Family.."
"Now, is there anything else you'd like to say?"
"King, it is precisely because of this contract that Victor's finger is meaningless."
"Francis, are you in the water in your brain?"
"Please maintain your aristocratic demeanor."
Glancing at Victor, Francis continued slowly.
"Why?"
"It's very simple, King, it's very clear on this contract that it was the people of Nanxi Village who sold the lunch box to our Francis family, not us paying their salaries, and the relationship between us in this transaction process is not an employment relationship."
"It's the relationship between merchants and merchants, so no matter how many boxes of lunches they make, how hard they work, it's their own will, and it has nothing to do with our Francis family."
"Huh??"
As soon as Francis's words came out, everyone present was stunned, it turned out that the laws of the kingdom could still be interpreted in this way?
"You.. You.."
Victor was also confused.
"You're... Quibble! And what about the machines you gave them? How so? ”
"Isn't it very clear in the contract?"
"The machine is another deal we made with the villagers of Nanxi Village, I sold the machine loan to them, and they paid me a ration of money every day, and we had nothing to do with it."
"After all, your law is the law of the protection of workers, the king protects the workers in the factory, and the merchants are willing to work hard in order to make a living, and we, as buyers, have no right to stop it."
"Pendri, is that so?"
"Father, although the contracts are similar to those in the factory, there is no mention of salary on them, so this interpretation is also in line with the laws of the kingdom."
"Victor, what about you? Is there any other evidence? Victor? ”
On the other side, Victor and the nobles were already stunned, and the villagers were even more trembling, they wanted to say something, and even wanted to curse, but they didn't know what to say, a thousand words, and in the end, they could only turn into a sigh, and their skills were not as good as people...
There is no doubt that people have long dug a pit there, waiting for themselves to jump it..
Of course, he also has to admit that he and the others are too anxious to analyze that there is such an interpretation behind this, but it is not okay if they are not in a hurry, the Francis family has completely defeated the lunch business of their four families, and has held the trading rights of the southern army for a long time, unless there is a lower price of the box lunch, but they can learn this model, but they can't crack that kind of machine.
Let's not mention that there are special people in Nanxi Village who are watching those machines now, and it is possible to steal one, but then what?
This kind of complex machine, if you want to crack the copy is not overnight, crack it, I don't know how long it will be a matter of time, at that time, people's machines may be updated again, more efficient..
And most importantly, all of this has nothing to do with the four of them, before today, the family has already explained everything, once they lose, the four of them will cut off from the family and stop all the blame on themselves, at the cost of their family The family will support them.
"No.."
After pondering for a long time, Victor shook his head, even if the magic energy fluctuation hurts people, he doesn't bother to mention it, because he knows very well that this is just an excuse, that magic energy fluctuation, if you want to really hurt people, I'm afraid it won't take decades.
Even the damage of the magic energy fluctuations in the factory is even greater, if he wants to chase this bite, it is equivalent to standing on the opposite side of all the nobles, and it is simple to improve the treatment of workers, but to innovate the machine, the price...
"Come on, they, along with those civilians, take them down and hand them over to the court for trial."
"Yes, King!"
"The King is wise!"
Francis quickly bowed down and slapped a sycophant.
"Huh.."
"Hughes."
King Caesar waved his hand and spoke again.
"Your Majesty is here."
"As the president of the court, do you think that this law is interpreted in this way, it's. . . Is it a hole? ”
"The king of the country, it doesn't count."
"Why?"
"King, whether you enact a law for the protection of workers, or any other law, in the final analysis, the purpose of it is to keep the people motivated, and the efficiency of active work is not the same as that of passive work."
"And this kind of merchant-to-merchant trading model, for the common people, the more they work, the more they earn, and they will not be discouraged by fatigue and fatigue, on the contrary, the more tired they are, the more they will see the hope of a better life."
"Well, that makes sense.."
"And we also need to protect this model and make this law clearer, because it is more positive than the workers in the factory."
The old man named Xius said again.
"For example, on the issue of remuneration, as well as the clarity of the contract, the commoners as the weaker party must be guaranteed to a certain extent, such as the ratio between the price of the commodity and the cost, if the market fluctuates, the commoners should get a guaranteed price, so as not to lose all their money, and for example, when receiving the goods, the money must be cleared, etc., the nobles can bear many failures, but the commoners can only bear once."
"Okay, you can draft the relevant bill when you go back."
"Yes, King."
"Copper coins."
"What do you command, King?"
"How old are you?"
"I had my birthday a few days ago, and now I'm seventeen."
"Seventeen."
Not only King Caesar, but also the surrounding ministers and nobles, they couldn't help but look sideways, no one was stupid, they could see that all this today was designed by this young man, seventeen years old, to make such a cost-effective alchemy machine.
Moreover, according to their investigation, it has only been a month or two for the copper coin to come into contact with magic and alchemy, and it is even better at interpreting the law, to be honest, this can no longer be described as a genius..
At the same time, some of the nobles whose brains turned relatively quickly couldn't help but be a little surprised on their faces, since the king asked him his age, it was not just a casual ask...
"Pendrey, what about you?"
"Father, I... Twenty years old. ”
Looking at Pendri, who was a little surprised and a little overwhelmed, Caesar shook his head, this is another shortcoming of his daughter, she is not decisive enough...
"Copper coin, how are you and Pendeli getting along during this time?"
"Her Royal Highness the Princess is a very good teacher.."
"Oh.."
Caesar narrowed his eyes slightly, as if he had thought of something.
"So, how about I let Pendri recognize you as a brother?"
"The copper coin has seen my father."
With a pop, Fugui knelt directly on one knee.
"Poof~"
On the throne, Caesar finally couldn't hold back and laughed out loud...
"Ha cough cough~"
"What do you think, Pendeli?"
"Father, it's my honor to have such a brother as a copper coin."
On the side, Pendeli also seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, but seemed to be a little lost, Caesar could hear the inner meaning from the sentence 'she is a good teacher', and she could naturally hear the inner rejection of the copper coin thousands of miles away.
To be honest, she didn't expect that she would be disgusted by a civilian, which means, isn't she as good as a black girl? You know, from the black girl, she knows how good this guy is to her, it's almost like being a relative...
"Hmm."
Caesar nodded.
"Then, as the king of the border kingdom, I bear witness that from this day on, the copper coin is the son of my Caesar family, and I will give you the surname, Caesar."
"Bronze Coin Caesar, Father Xie."
This time, Fugui fell to his knees and kowtowed heavily to Caesar's kingdom, a ritual that is also practiced in the border kingdom, but basically only between relatives and elders.
"That's all for today's meeting, let's all disperse, copper coins, you come with me."
"Yes, Father."
