Chapter 106

"Sir, there's a new long-eared goodie, would you like to go in and have a look?"

At the mouth of a dark alley where sewage flowed beside the bustling streets of Portugallet, there was an elderly camel shrouded in black robes, hunched over and smiling flatteringly at the well-dressed passers-by in front of him.

"The color of the goods with long ears?"

Covering his mouth and nose with an elegant incense silk handkerchief, so as not to be dizzy by the strong body odor on the black-robed camel, who had not bathed for an unknown amount of time, frowned and took half a step back to keep his distance from the former:

"How big? Don't be a garbage seed who has already given birth to an unknown number of fetuses......"

"Look at what you said, such a good thing, where would you dare to show a decent person like you."

Three dirty fingers stretched out from under the black robe, and the camel's voice was a little more proud, "It's all goods that are no more than three years old, and our leader personally led the team to pick them up in the south woods......"

"Just got it?" The passerby's brow tightened, "Those wild dogs in the anti-slave trade department have a good nose, are you sure these goods are not being targeted?" ”

"Look, look at what you said."

The black-robed camel hurriedly waved his hand and smiled weirdly:

"Our family has lived in Portugalette for four years, and you are a local here, so you should know the weight of being a seller who can live for four years in this industry today."

The passers-by, who were greatly satisfied with the words, glanced around, and after not finding familiar faces around, they also smiled, and then followed the black-robed camel who nodded and walked into the alley.

"The Kingdom Slave Abolition Act and the Racial Equality Act have been implemented for the eleventh year, but it seems that the secret slave trade is still only increasing."

The passers-by who followed behind the black-robed camel carefully avoided the small pits of water on the stone pavement, and couldn't help but sigh with emotion after seeing the fleeting plush beast ears at the windows of people in the alley.

"It's not as easy as you said, the kingdom's anti-slave trade department has been keeping a close eye on us people in the past few years, not a small business, and few of us who have become a little bigger can survive the second year."

There was also a little more sigh in the words of the black-robed camel, "Most of the heads on the guillotine at the entrance of the market are also those of us who have no background and are unlucky, but old sellers like us who are good up and down basically have very few accidents." ”

"So, behind you people, there should be big people in charge?"

The black-robed camel waved his hand: "This kind of thing, it's not something like me that a small character can talk nonsense, if the boss knows that the mouths of those of us who are soliciting customers below are not tight, it is not a little pain that can be passed......"

The well-dressed passer-by shrugged his shoulders and didn't ask any further questions, instead looking at the people around the alley.

After the enactment of the Kingdom Slavery Abolition Act and the Racial Equality Act, all cities in the Kingdom were theoretically open to humanoid races that met the conditions of being in a state of non-hostility, and members of these races were welcome to travel and trade and engage in various daily activities throughout the Kingdom, and all acts involving the slave trade and racial discrimination were severely punished.

For example, the elves and dwarves have established their own racial civilizations, and after the promulgation of these two bills, they have also established diplomatic relations with the human kingdom, and the citizens of both sides can pass through the territory of the other country as sojourners, and enjoy even higher treatment than ordinary residents.

The humanoid races that had been lowly slaves before the enactment of the two laws had achieved an equal status with themselves in the blink of an eye, which was unacceptable to many people in the kingdom, especially some of the great nobles who had made a lot of money from the slave trade.

At that time, the upper echelons of the kingdom exchanged rare breeds of slaves, which had almost become a habitual way for these nobles with status to socialize daily, and the nobles who basically monopolized this trade looked at this one-time profitable transaction, which could bring almost endless wealth to themselves and their descendants, and at the same time maintain friendly relations with the upper echelons of the kingdom, but they were completely cut off from their financial routes by these two bills that left no room for the slightest.

Cutting off people's wealth is like killing their parents, this sentence is also valid in another world.

The nobles who had not been able to prevent the enactment of these two laws in the kingdom felt that they were gradually being driven to a dead end, and once all their slaves became freemen, they were cut off from their financial means of maintaining relations with the upper echelons of the kingdom, which was fatal for a noble family.

And the one who proposed and carried these two bills was the chief consul of the kingdom who was above ten thousand people under one man at that time.

With the unreserved support of the king himself, the chief consul of the kingdom at that time first asked the nobles at the top of the kingdom to take the lead by disbanding slaves of all races in the family themselves, and instead chose to oppose two acts, that is, against the king himself and the kingdom as a whole.

At the same time, the Chief Archon of the Kingdom also established an anti-slave trade department in the kingdom to free enslaved humanoid slaves throughout the kingdom and to capture and try slave traders who remained unrepentant after the enactment of the law.

Naturally, the nobles at the top of the kingdom could not choose the latter, and those who could climb to this position were not stupid people whose brains were filled with desire.

Seeing that the nobles at the top of the kingdom were dismissing their slaves one after another, the aristocratic slave traders despaired, and some of them began to submit to the new policy, and began to release slaves who had not been captured and bought and sold before, as well as slaves who were engaged in special work in their own estates, and gave them a certain amount of money and threats, soft and hard, so as to prevent these slaves who had become free people from revealing what had happened to them and ruining the family reputation of these nobles.

For these nobles, at least the vast wealth accumulated by the slave trade in the past remains, and they still have time to find a new way for their families to survive.

There are also some nobles who trade in humanoid slaves who take a tough attitude, driving away or bribing all the officials sent by the relevant departments of the kingdom to free their own slaves, refusing to release any of their own slaves, and suppressing and killing humanoid slaves who try to fight for their own freedom after knowing about the kingdom's slave abolition law and racial equality law.

The nobles with the most fierce attitudes even contacted the most powerful assassins of several underground organizations in the kingdom, and hired these sharp blades skilled in killing with large sums of money, trying to use the tyranny of the chief consul of the kingdom to put an end to the two laws that had been implemented in the kingdom, and the most daring of them even set their sights on the high throne.

As for the outcome, the Kingdom Slavery Abolition Act and the Racial Equality Act have been implemented to some extent.
