Chapter 22 is untitled
Gawain walked down the hallway of the cabin as his thoughts began to drift.
Of course, he knows that the impact of a drastic increase in food production will be multifaceted.
More food production will inevitably lead to a much lower price of food, and as a result, more people will be freed from the land.
Most of the surplus labor liberated from the land will go into the factories, which will stimulate the factories to expand their production, and the number of workers will increase considerably.
In the original book, Why are the workers of Beckland's East End recklessly oppressed?
One of the main reasons is that they are too few in number, not loud enough, and not strong enough.
In front of those big nobles and big capitalists, they are powerless, and the Rune police will not care whether they live or die, because these policemen are not paid by them.
The police of the Kingdom of Rune will help them, and there will be no oil and water to fish at all, and they will not get any benefits.
Therefore, it is difficult for these people in the East Side to even live a simple life, they are weak and ignorant, and most of them cannot even live past the age of thirty.
As a result, they could not provide a solid enough anchor for the gods to make a great effort to save them, let alone meddle in the affairs of the Kingdom.
Their country has abandoned them, and the gods will not look at them, so what can they do?
Then they can only use their weak bodies to try to earn a little bit of income, barely able to fill their stomachs.
These people are like pigs to be slaughtered, not even as good as pigs, at least the pigs can still eat enough until they die.
One by one, they entered the flesh-and-blood millstone in the Eastern District, and were captured by Qiao San's miscellaneous to repair the mausoleum, and after the repair, they were killed, and at the same time, they were also used by the Aurora Society and the witch to squeeze out their pain and despair to attract the evil god to descend.
Even after the Great Smog of Beckland, the Kingdom of Rune finally woke up and planned to start governing the Eastern District, but it was only because of the fear of the evil gods that it did so.
Because these people in the East Side are powerless, they can't pose any threat, and in this world with extraordinary abilities, they are like weeds growing on the ground, anyone can step on them.
However, once Frank's experimental research is successful, the increase in grain production from high-yielding crops will force a large number of people from the land into the factory.
The people of the land and the people of the factory, they will be closely combined to form a powerful group, and at that time, only one copy will be needed......
"Ahem." Gawain coughed twice, not daring to think further.
If he continues to think about it, if he is sanctioned by a mysterious force from the other world, it will be the end of the calf.
Thinking of this, Gawain hurriedly made up for himself in his heart.
After all, Gawain is just an ordinary warrior, and he doesn't have the audience's ability to guide the world situation.
In his previous life, he hadn't read any books at all, anthologies or anything like that, and his favorite color was blue.
Therefore, everything that will happen next is of course caused by the natural operation of society, and it has nothing to do with him, an innocent little warrior, which is very reasonable.
Thinking about it like this, Gao Wen suddenly felt a lot more relaxed, and the sudden sense of crisis just now gradually disappeared.
……
The next morning, Gawain had just woken up from a trial dream when there was a knock on his door.
He got up, put on his coat, and opened the door, and as he expected, it was Frank Lee standing outside the door.
Frank looked at Gawain, showed a hearty smile, and asked, "You woke up, how did you sleep last night?" ”
Gawain, who had just been abused by the dog all night, replied, "Sleep well." ”
Frank saw that he was still a little confused, and said:
"If you don't sleep well, then go and sleep a little longer, the ship is naturally not as stable as the land, I will have breakfast brought to your room."
Gawain shook his head and said, "Forget it, did you come so early for yesterday's event?" ”
"Yes, I thought about it all night yesterday and suddenly realized that I had too few crop seeds in my hands that I could use for experiments."
As soon as Frank talked about business, he suddenly said with some eyebrows:
"That's why I'm here today because the ship has arrived in Baiam, and I'm going to get you off the boat and buy some grain seeds and come back."
Gawain thought for a moment, then agreed, he went back to his room to get dressed, had a brief breakfast with Frank, and disembarked with him.
The two went to the market, bought some seeds of grain that were common in Baiam, and prepared to return to the ship to begin the experiment.
On the way back, when passing by the bridge cave, Gao Wen saw a thin figure lying under the bridge from a distance.
He asked, "Why is that man lying there in broad daylight?" ”
Frank followed his gaze, squinted for a moment, and replied, "This man is sick." ”
"What disease?"
"It's hard to talk about the disease." Frank said in a deep voice:
"At sea, there are a lot of girls whose families are bankrupt and who are sold to the Red Theater. Although the Emperor invented the condom long ago, many pirates were reluctant to use it, which eventually led to such a tragedy. ”
The two did not speak again, and walked forward in silence.
Gawain kept looking at the thin figure lying in the distance, and only stopped when the figure was about to leave his sight.
Frank also stopped, he didn't speak, just quietly watched Gawain's reaction.
After a long time, Gawain asked, "Can it be cured?" ”
"Yes, but I'll have to go back to the ship to get the medicine."
"Mind if I mind this?"
"No, I'm a lot more relieved."
"Oh? Why? ”
Frank smiled and said, "Actually, when I heard your impassioned feelings there yesterday, I still had some doubts in my heart, suspecting that you were trying to use those poor people for some ulterior purpose.
"But just a moment ago, I was sure that you really wanted to help them."
Gawain looked Frank up and down and said, "I didn't expect you, a pirate, to have mercy on them, I thought you joined this plan so that the whole world would call your name." ”
Frank smiled heartily: "Haha, of course, there are reasons for this, but in the end, how different is I from them, who used to be an orphan?"
"I'm just lucky to be rescued by the Mother God Church, and I don't feel like I'm superior to them because of that."
His voice was low:
"When I heard you talk about the tragedy of those people yesterday, I had a feeling that I can't describe it well, but I felt sadness."
Gao Wen raised his legs and walked towards the bridge hole, and said softly: "This feeling is called the death of a rabbit and the sorrow of a fox, and the thing hurts it. ”
Frank followed and asked, "Incisive, is this a word invented by Rousail the Great?" ”
"Probably."
