Chapter 137: Speech
This is the first time Zhou Huan has returned to the Emerald Mountain, and it is also the first time he has seen the lineup of his followers. In a month's time, the elves had made a perfect elven forest in that canyon, dug a pit from it, and basically solved everything.
After planting the seeds, the valley has now become one of the most beautiful places. The dwarves live next door to the orcs, and there are so many caves anyway, just find any one. Originally, the dwarves lived in the cave below, but now it is developed and upgraded to a cave in the mountain.
Zhou Huan did not plan to build the city lord's mansion, and the first thing to solve should be where the people should live. The first place they reclaimed was the platform a kilometer away. But this is not something that these aliens can do overnight. It is necessary to mobilize all the cities of Gut in order to be able to build successfully.
So Zhou Huan said to Badolph: "Now we can discuss, if all the people of Gute City are transferred here." ”
What else could Badolph do but nod. In the entire Gute City, he is the only one who can still speak. So after Badolph returned to the city lord's mansion, he told his men for an afternoon, and the matter finally began to be carried out.
The next day, the city was flooded with posters. All the civilians of Gut City were shocked by this news for the first time. Gut City is going to change places and move somewhere else?
This news has a different impact on many people. So these people are also happy and sad. But most people scoff at it. Gutche has been like this for many years in this city, how can it be possible to change him.
But the notices have already been posted, and many people are still convinced of it. In Gute City, most of them are hunters for a living, and there are some merchants, as for the farmers, the least number of farmers. Because there is not much land here, it can grow food.
After the notice was posted, the next step was to start transferring and recruiting workers. Transfer, in fact, has the same meaning as recruitment, because the workers that Zhou Huan wants to gather are all the civilians in the entire Gute City.
In a city of 100,000 people, excluding those old people and children, there are 50,000 people who can really live in the east. Even the elderly and children can help with odd jobs or food delivery. It is precisely because of this that Zhou Huan gathered the entire Gute City.
Gute City is home to merchants, hunters, mercenaries, and all sorts of professions. But the next moment, they must become the same profession, Zhou Huan's workers. Of course, this is only temporary workers, and it is also built for their own homes.
At this time, Zhou Huan, as the lord of Enriel, delivered a large speech. This is also something that has never been done on the continent, and no one has ever spoken to these civilians.
An amplification microphone was placed on the table, capable of amplifying the sound tenfold. Within a square mile, you can hear it. This is a big platform, and Zhou Huan made a simple table here. The table was very long, and on one side the major leaders of the author Enriel City.
Looking at the tea on the table, Zhou Huan felt a little funny. How did I go back to my college days, at that time, as a student representative, I came to the stage to speak. And now, he has become a leader to mobilize these people.
"First of all, as a lord of a place, let me introduce myself. Zhou Huan said slowly, and in front of him, there was a group of people who were pressed by black. Today, all the people of Gut City have gathered here, here to hear the lords decide their future.
"First of all, I would like to introduce myself. I believe some people will know me, my name is Zhou Huan. At the beginning, Zhou Huan only said this sentence. And below, many people began to talk. The name Zhou Huan is indeed not unfamiliar to some of them, the last time the Noxian Empire passed, after being rendered by many people, Zhou Huan and the War College became heroic figures. ...,
Although Zhou Huan did not play a big role, what he did was spread by some good soldiers. Zuihou is getting more and more outrageous, and now in this city, it has become a color of completely personal heroism. For example, he single-handedly defeated Darius, the prince of Noxus, and then led the students of the War College to drive away the enemy.
Of course, these Zhou Huan didn't know, and then he continued: "And after I returned to the Empire, they arranged me to this place in recognition of me. To be the lord of all of you, to be honest, I am really happy to be able to become your lord. ”
When he said this, many civilians began to express their disdain for Zhou Huan's words, what kind of place is this. In the eyes of those people, this is a barren land.
But Zhou Huan smiled and said, "I believe I said this, most of you don't believe it." In fact, if I were in your place, I wouldn't believe it. But actually, I'm really happy to be here. ”
"There are several reasons, first, because I offended some nobles when I fought the Noxian Empire last time, so in order to eliminate dissent, it is not easy for them to erase what I have done, so I was arranged here. But I'm glad they did, because it was I who offended them, and the farther away I was from them, the safer I was. ”
"I'm just a small viscount, I don't think there is a liliang who fights against those noble lords, I'm just a commoner, and I got this title by chance. ”
"Second, it is precisely because I am a civilian that I know how difficult life is for civilians. So I've always had the heart to change, but I can't. But now, I have the strength. Maybe you don't know where I'm from, but I can tell you that I lived somewhere in Mount Terral before I went to the War College. As for what the place is, I won't say. All in all, I'm also everyone's fellow countryman. ”
"Since I am a fellow countryman, then I have the responsibility to let everyone live a good life. That's why I'm very happy to be here. ”
"Third, you probably know this place very well, but because everyone is a civilian, it is limited to this city. In this city, self-protection is still a little insufficient, let alone going out.
But I can tell you clearly, in fact, our northeastern province has an extremely vast geographical area, and we also occupy one-fifth of the entire empire here. One-fifth, my lord's territory is indeed large enough. There is also a lot of land per capita. ”
"But Weishenme, we have never been able to become a strong place. For various reasons, without money, we cannot have an army here, and without an army, the safety of the people's lives cannot be guaranteed. Even the people's survival and security cannot be guaranteed, how to become rich and strong. And if we want an army, we have to be rich and strong here. It's a strange circle, so here, and still now. ”
At this time, the reaction of the masses began to slowly become fierce. Many people began to complain, and some even cursed. Most of them scolded those aristocratic lords, who were unkind to the rich, and let them suffer here.
"Don't blame others, don't blame society and empires, everywhere, there are things like us. So don't complain, if you spend your time complaining on building this city, I believe that through our efforts, this place will definitely become rich and powerful. ”
"How is it possible, then you can make us rich and strong?" I don't know who asked, but after a while, most of the people began to ask Zhou Huan. Zhou Huan listened with a smile, and waited until the person's voice gradually became smaller before he continued. ...,
"I can't make you rich and strong, because you are the only ones who can make you rich and strong. You have your own hands, your hands, that you can use to create, to create things that make you rich and strong. I alone can't make you all rich and strong. I am very rich, I have nearly a million gold coins, and after I have scattered all my wealth and divided it among you, it will only be ten gold coins per person. This is only a drop in the bucket compared to the situation here, he can make you live well for a while, but can he let you live a good life. ”
Zhou Huan's words also stopped these people, and at this time, almost all of them were listening to Zhou Huan's speech seriously.
"Therefore, from now on, you should create a good life for yourself. You are also human, no different from those noble lords, don't you all have one nose and two eyes? And don't envy those nobles, because those nobles only became nobles because they were created by their ancestors. The efforts of their ancestors made them rich and powerful. ”
"Open the family tree and turn it up to eight generations, and it doesn't have to be a nobleman. Since people can become nobles and let future generations have a shadow, then you can't. ”
The civilians were silent for a moment, and then many began to talk. "Yes, although they are nobles, they are no different from us. ”
"Even if they are nobles, they don't become nobles all at once, they must have been created by their ancestors. ”
"Then since their ancestors were commoners and could become nobles, then we can't?"
Many civilians began to react violently. And what Zhou Huan wants is like this, only by mobilizing the people's liliang can they really become stronger.
So Zhou Huan continued: "Now, I have found a way to make us rich and strong, I don't know if all of you are willing to work with me to re-make this territory and make Enriel glow with unprecedented youth." Let your lives be rich and strong, so that your children and grandchildren will no longer be poor. Let this place of ours be adored and envied by all. ”
"Tell me, do you want to!"
