Chapter 55: Fundamental
"The composition of the 10th Guards Legion is very peculiar, bandits, robbers and the enslaved people under these people, these people account for one-third of the 10th Guards Legion, and the rest of the people are all slaves emancipated in the Binis Empire, these people can be regarded as making a lot of contributions to the Empire, if they are converted from military merits, they should be rewarded higher than normal soldiers, but I have to admit that I am a cruel person, I just gave them the status of free men, and until now it has not been recognized by the Kotler Empire, people are trustworthy, this point I have not fully done, so this is my greatest request to meet His Majesty the Emperor this time, to declare that the slaves in the Tenth Guard are free men. ”
can say the 10th Guards Regiment as an example, the people present already know what the ghost wants to say, what he wants to get, but he didn't expect the ghost to be so neat and undisguised, so the people present are still a little moved, such a direct request is very rare in the court of the Kotler Empire, and the ending is often not very good, after all, the object of the request is the emperor of the Kotler Empire, which is the apex of the imperial power.
"Your Excellency, I don't think the 10th Guards Legion you mentioned has anything to do with the issues we are discussing now, what we have to solve is the problem of manpower, isn't Your Excellency a little ...... Off topic?" Serka said in a deep voice as he stared at the ghost, who shook his head and responded, "Honorable Marshal, this is just a foreshadowing for what I want to say, so let's talk about how to solve this manpower problem." ”
"If Your Excellency thinks that emancipating slaves can solve the problem of manpower, I don't think this idea of yours is new, in the Kotler Empire, people who have this kind of thinking can regard it as disrespect to the royal family, and can be punished with capital punishment!" It was Pixar who spoke, and the old marshal sneered and charged Ghost Ugly with contempt for imperial power, Ghost Ugly was stunned after hearing it, but under the mask, ordinary people could not see it, but the people present knew that Ghost Ugly had a trace of hesitation because of Pixar's words.
"Pixar, listen to the little guy first, young people will always make mistakes, but you can't deny it all because of one mistake, he is from the Ron Empire, this is a novel thinking for us, and we should tolerate it. ”
Everyone present was ready to see how the ghost and ugly responded, but no one expected that the old emperor would suddenly speak, and with an obvious bias towards the ghost and ugly, Pixar's face changed, but the emperor had already spoken, so naturally he was not easy to refute, so he didn't say anything, sat down as usual, and waited for the ghost to express his opinion.
"Thank you for Your Majesty's generosity, I really don't know this, and I won't take it as an example, so I'm going to say it all this time. ”
After thinking about Filschli, the ghost continued: "The number of civilians and slaves in the Kotler Empire should be three or six points, and the remaining one point is everyone except them, and the slaves stand sixty percent, which is sufficient labor, but how to give full play to the role of these slaves, this is what we have to consider, in short, it is to satisfy the desires of those slaves." ”
"Longing, do you mean freedom?" asked Amrok with a sneer, there were no slaves in his house, after all, there were many retired soldiers in his Tomahawk Legion, and there were not a few people who were loyal to him, but he was not without contact with slaves, especially in this Kotler Empire where slavery existed, everyone was instilled with the idea that slaves were inferior creatures at birth, and Amrok was exactly the same as everyone else.
"Of course not, it is a slave with a relatively high consciousness, if it is placed in the slave market, it should be regarded as a medium slave, Lord Amlock, please believe me, this kind of slave in the Kotler Empire only exists in a small number of alien slaves, and there are very few human races. Ghost Ugly simply denied Amlock's idea, while Moko on the other side kept frowning and pondering, not knowing what he was thinking.
The strange remarks of the ghost and ugliness naturally aroused everyone's curiosity, if the slave did not want to be free, then what else could the slave want?
"The reason why the slaves of the 10th Guards Regiment are still in the Legion now has nothing to do with the 10th Guards Legion itself, they just compare their previous lives, ten days ago they could only eat a small piece of food and they had to work for a day, but now he can eat ten pieces, if he continues to work hard to earn military merits, then he can still get a little inferior wine that he usually dare not think of, if he is capable enough, then he can also get a captain's medal that can get more food...... These are the things that slaves need, and until now, the later slaves in the Legion have only used the Tenth Guards Legion as a shelter where they can get food, and that's it, as for freedom, no matter who it is, they will not believe it for a moment, and the fear in their bones will treat freedom as poison, let them be free, it is better to let them die directly. ”
"Is this what they want?" Obviously, no one in the room believed that things were as simple as they might say, but the first thing to ask was Marshal Pippen, who was constantly adjusting his sitting position.
The ghost nodded and said: "For slaves, the so-called freedom is not real, because their faces are engraved with the mark of slaves, even if they are free, then he will still be arrested as a slave, and it will be worse than before freedom, so it is better to eat more, drink more, and the picture is a moment, that's all." ”
"Directly let the slaves go to the fields, and there is no one who dares to be lazy if someone supervises them, if you say that you use slaves, then the idea of the ghost and ugly lord is not new. Pixar still fought back, but the ghost smiled lightly and said: "Guarding slaves is a very labor-intensive thing, this kind of thing is actually an unnecessary waste for the Kotler Empire, in addition to the early care, it is enough to leave only the people who do statistics." ”
"Statistician?" Everyone repeated this sentence in unison, and the confusion on their faces became more and more obvious.
"Yes, the statistician, we do need a lot of supervising people in the early stage, but once on the right track, the extra manpower can do other things, the statistician only needs to count the results of the slaves, and then issue rewards according to the results, this is my idea, Your Majesty, marshals, after all, in the Ron Empire, there are no slaves, this is also one of the fundamentals of the Ron Empire, so ask my opinion, I can only refer to the Ron Empire, if there is any conflict with the Empire, please forgive Your Majesty and the three adults。 After saying that, the ghost and the ugly saluted again, the faces of the old emperor and the three marshals eased, the ghost and the ugly knew that what he said was almost, and self-help had been said, and now what should be considered is how to say foreign aid, after all, the time required for self-help is not short, even if it is when the food is ripe, I am afraid that the Kotler Empire is already full of sorrow.
Amlock and Moko secretly thought about the ghost and made a terrible look, the ghost smiled bitterly in his heart, in order to answer the question, he said while thinking, thinking about it, there should be many mistakes, but fortunately, the contemplation of several people on the other side has left enough time for the ghost ugly, and if you ask again, it should be a lot better, feeling the ghost ugly's emotions, Zero is also thinking along the ghost ugly train of thought, and there are a lot of good ideas in the process of answering.
"Ron Empire, it is really talented, ugly, what you said is very good, I will consider this, since you just said two directions, then what is going on with this foreign aid?
