Chapter 990: New Deal
Not to mention saying something nasty.
The Shang kings themselves were the largest slave owners.
The number of slaves owned by the royal family is not fully counted, but there are at least 50,000 or more.
If the slaves were really to be freed, the Shang king himself would have to suffer heavy losses.
Of course, Shang Rong wouldn't know that all this was promoted by Chu He, the fake Shang King, behind his back.
The atmosphere was a little deadlocked, and Chu He had to say: "Fei Zhong! Although what you said is good, it is quite difficult to implement. Why don't you take a step back?"
Hearing this, Shang Rong turned his head to look at Chu Daodao: "Dare to ask Your Majesty, how to take a step back?"
Chu He took out the manuscript that had been prepared and said: "After most of the slaves are sinners, you might as well let those slaves who have been slaves for more than three generations have the right to redeem themselves. They can redeem themselves from the Lord's house at a certain cost. ”
Chu He's proposal, at first glance, seems a bit ordinary, and it does not solve the problem.
But after Shang Rong thought about it, his eyes were full of light, and he had a sense of sudden enlightenment.
looked at Chu He's eyes, and was even more full of admiration, but he didn't tell the truth.
In the final analysis, Chu He took advantage of the arrogance of those nobles and princes and found a loophole to get into, which could not only solve the problem to a certain extent, but also reduce the voice of opposition.
More than three generations of slaves have gone through deep enslavement.
In the eyes of many people, even Shang Rong felt that most of them were loyal to the main family.
Even if the king of Shang has established new regulations, it has given the door to convenience.
Nor will they choose to leave the Lord's house.
What's more, there is still a level of self-redemption to go.
Even if this price is set by the official uniform, it will not be too low, and the slave has nothing, so how can he redeem himself?
In this way, it seems that the dispute between the court and the court has been resolved, and the contradiction has been stabilized on the surface.
This decision was quickly approved by everyone in the small venue.
On the second day, he went to the court and said, and after some quarrels, he also 'reluctantly' passed.
The old forces all thought that they were victorious, and the Shang King's approach seemed to help those newly-born 'tourist' forces, but in fact it was a false shot.
It was only when it was not long before it was implemented that many nobles and princes regretted it.
Most of the slaves who have been trained for more than three generations are the elite in their hands, and they are also the management class among the slaves, and they are deeply trusted by their masters.
It stands to reason that it is impossible to betray.
But they ignore the early Chu River, through various stories, the proclamation of freedom.
At the same time, it was rumored that Fei Zhong was dissatisfied with the perfunctory behavior of the Shang king, and secretly conspired with those 'tourists' to let them secretly contact some satisfied slaves, made a promise, signed a contract, and at the cost of many years of free work, the 'tourists' would pay instead of them to redeem them from the master's house.
As a result, the nobles suffered heavy losses.
And those slaves who could not be freed were even more dissatisfied and impetuous. and when they serve their masters, they do not do their best.
Let the quality of life of the aristocracy plummet.
And Fei Zhong, who carried a big black pot in vain, was still intoxicated with the pleasure of counting money and several soft hands at this time.
Occasionally, I would come back to my senses and think about whether I had really come up with such a clever plan in a few banquets a few days ago, and I could find such a loophole in the new rules formulated by the King of Shang.
Then, looking at the boxes of copper coins being carried in, I fell into a frenzy for money again.
is different from Xiao Sheng's talent for controlling money.
Fei Zhong's affection for money stems only from greed, and he has no talent for managing finances.
The former is the maker and controller of money. The latter is just a slave to money, and the gap is obvious.
Fei Zhong is not far from death.
The Slave Emancipation Movement, Slowly.
Those who have doubts in their hearts have not stopped their steps.
And Chu He also began to perceive his danger.
From transforming agriculture and commerce to create new power structures, to emancipating some slaves and developing covert networks that controlled the world economically. In the meantime, he also took a handful of Xiqi and blackened a handful of Yunzhongzi and Jiang Ziya.
It's not unsuccessful.
However, these are all things that he did when he hid in the shadows, hiding in the shadow of Di Xin.
And now, when he does more and more things, things get bigger and bigger.
He will also become more and more conspicuous, and one day, the shadow of Di Xin will no longer be able to hide his edge and fangs.
When that time comes, all the people who have been cheated by him may join forces and deal with him first.
People have no long-term worries, although everything has not happened yet, but Chu He can make such a judgment forward-looking.
Don't get carried away by a short-lived victory.
These victories were temporary, phased, not results.
Hiding in the shadows, borrowing the Shang King's great power and yin people, if there is no result, Chu He should go back to wash and sleep.
"Ji Chang's ability to calculate hexagrams is unparalleled in the world, and he is the first person who can't hide it. Then there is Jiang Ziya, this guy is also shrewd, he actually divided the power in his hands, and set up some supernumerary petty officials in Chaoge City, borrowing the power of the head snake to quickly sort out the Chaoge population, although it still takes time, but it is undoubtedly much faster. Chu He planned in his heart.
At the same time, he stepped into the deep palace and kicked on the bronze door of a large hall.
Bang!
The gate collapsed.
The interior of the main hall, which was supposed to be a storehouse, has been transformed into a magnificent one.
Bright lights, gorgeously dressed, writhing beauties.
Di Xin holds a wine glass, and all kinds of fine wines are placed on the left and right, both ancient and modern, Chinese and foreign.
All kinds of fruits, cakes, and food are also sprinkled all over the place.
Chu He's face turned black with anger, he stepped forward, stepped directly on Di Xin with one foot, and then grabbed his neck and said, "Zi Shou! Di Xin! Do you really think that you can sit back and enjoy the fruits of peace and relaxation? Or do you only intend to renew your love affair with your beauty for another lifetime, and then separate again, and how much pain will it take for many years to each other?"
Chu He's tone was deep, hating iron and not steel.
Daji was behind Chu He, the nine tails were stretched, and the demonic energy was surging, and he was about to use his claws to grab Chu He's heart.
Di Xin stretched out his hand and said, "You can't love the concubine!"
Stopping Daji, Di Xin pressed Chu He's hand that grabbed his chest, took a sip of residual wine, and poured it into his mouth.
Drunken eyes looked at Chu River with a slightly hazy face: "Chu He! I understand you! You will never be under others, you will always like to be the one who controls the overall situation." So I'm giving you the opportunity to be me and do whatever you want to do. And my cooperation is just to take my beauty and disappear quietly in front of everyone's eyes, so as not to cause you trouble. ”
"If you don't think that's going to work... Then I'll go out and be the merchant king you want me to be, but what?"
Sitting up straight, Di Xin actually regained a little imperial heroism.
When Chu He heard this, he was stunned.
He didn't expect that Di Xin would think so.
But ask yourself, Chu He knows that what Di Xin said is right.
That's what he is!
