The shopping session was finally over, and they returned home together.Looking at the huge shopping bag, the sumptuous dinner, the kind smile of the owner's grandfather, and the orange juice in the glass, Li had the illusion that he came here not as a slave, but as a little princess...

I can sit on the sofa without any scruples. The owner's sister bathes me personally. The owner's sister is aggrieved but still has to share drinks with me. The owner's family goes out to buy new clothes for myself, and whether to buy them depends mainly on what you like. I don't like it... Did I really come to be a slave?

She was incredible, even shocking.Even when she came back, she didn't need her to take the shopping bag that wrapped her clothes. The master's sister and the master's female companion agreed that the master, a man, should do this kind of tiring work...

Looking at the owner with the big bag, Li, who is empty-handed, feels that this world is too magical.

But Gu Hengsheng didn't think there was anything wrong. In fact, although the three of them knew that Li was their slave, they generally lacked a concept of how the master should treat the slave.They had no choice but to follow their own hearts and treat Li the way they treat ordinary little girls.

Therefore, Linguang is kind by nature and often takes care of little girls, Gu Hengsheng has received modern higher education, and Chen has almost never had the concept of slavery, so they all treat Li as a little sister, and there are almost no slaves. thought.

After dinner, the little girl was going to do her homework for the day, and Linguang was there to help her.Gu Hengsheng and Chen tried to communicate more with Li, while grandfather...

Went to a neighbor's house to play chess.

Not only did Gu Hengsheng not object to this, he even supported it.Now that he has gone home, he should take care of all these family affairs, so it should be allowed for his grandfather to have some entertainment of his own.

Time passed slowly, and suddenly, Lin Guang's voice came from the study: "Hang Seng, come and see how to do this math problem?"

"Don't you know all the kindergarten questions?" Gu Hengsheng complained loudly about Linguang's math level, explained it to Chen, and then walked over quickly.

"That's fine, you can go and tutor the younger sister." Chen nodded, "It's just right, I'll take the gravel to take a bath again, and I sweated a lot in the afternoon."

Gu Hengsheng hummed and went in.

"This question is wrong." After reading the question, he immediately made this judgment, "Skip over to the next question."

"Oh." The little girl didn't doubt her brother's authority, and continued to do it.Gu Hengsheng was idle and bored, so he sat down by Linguang.

"Speaking of which, a new shopping mall has actually been built in the east of the city."

Linguang suddenly remembered something, and said: "But I'm still used to coming to this store. I feel that in a city, one shopping mall is enough, and there is no need to have so many."

"Oh?" Gu Hengsheng raised his eyebrows, then smiled, "It seems that Casimir's economy is in a downturn, and the upper management is also in a hurry."

In the past few years, the Casimir currency has depreciated wildly, and it is estimated that the rulers of Casimir are also very anxious.Now I am afraid that traditions, rules, and everything can be ignored. It is king to quickly attract foreign capital and promote economic development.

"Having said that, I always feel that this is not a good way." Linguang said with a little worry, "We can develop the economy in the traditional way of Casimir, produce food and daily necessities, and build weapons. Blindly develop business If so, it is likely to cause some unforeseen consequences..."

Gu Hengsheng looked at his sister in surprise, he didn't expect her to be able to see so far.Excessive foreign capital entering the country can easily lead to economic crisis and social turmoil—of course, if the final result is good, it can also be said to trigger social change.

But Gu Hengsheng feels that no matter how turbulent Casimir is, it will not be worse than the current slavery, so he doesn't mind this happening: "I don't think it is necessarily a bad thing, after all, businessmen still have to serve the general public. ...do you think there might be any bad consequences?"

He wanted to see which layer Linguang saw.

"For example, speeding up commercialization will easily corrupt the knight class, especially slave traders." Linguang frowned slightly, and continued, "Hang Seng, this is my advice to you too. Although my sister knows that you have made a little Achievements, but you are ten million, you must stick to your heart in doing things, and you must not be like those unscrupulous profiteers who do anything for profit!"

In the end, her tone was even a little harsh.

"I know, sister, don't worry, I won't become like that." Gu Hengsheng said with a wry smile.It seems that he was thinking too much. He thought that Linguang had seen far away, but he didn't expect that she was still on the first floor...

However, the words of the slave merchant...

Gu Hengsheng thought about it, and then his expression gradually became serious: "However, sister, have you ever thought about asking me, your relative, that it is easy for such a person to have relatively high moral standards; but if you want Extend this set of guidelines to the whole country, so that all businessmen, especially those slave traders, can abide by it... Do you think it is possible?"

"Of course it's impossible." Linguang said in a natural tone, "So the next correct development direction for Casimir should be to strengthen the construction of the legal system, increase the punishment for commercial violations, and make the cost of those businessmen breaking the law even higher. It's getting higher and higher, and the chance of exposure is getting bigger and bigger..."

"Why can't this system be abolished directly?" Gu Hengsheng said suddenly.

"Huh?" Lin Guang was stunned, "You said... what?"

"Abolish slavery, make any slave or servile employment relationship illegal, and any act of buying and selling people is illegal. Propagate the idea that people are born equal, and completely eradicate the soil of the slave trade..." Gu Hengsheng's eyes were burning. "Wouldn't it be better?"

Linguang was stunned, she had never thought about this issue, she always believed that the biggest evil of Casimir's development was the greed in the hearts of businessmen, she had never thought about it...

"But the slave..." she murmured, "it's..."

She wanted to say that slavery is a thousand-year-old tradition in this land that cannot be changed, but she couldn't say it.

It's not that she doesn't know how miserable the lives of slaves are, especially after seeing Li, she has a deep understanding of the lives of these slaves.But even so, all she can think of is improvement, continuous improvement on the existing basis, and never radical enough to completely abolish a system...

and many more!

"You just said that all men are created equal?" She suddenly realized the problem.

 

Chapter 220 Chapter 218 Arrangements for Gravel

"That's right." Gu Hengsheng nodded, "All men are created equal."

Linguang immediately looked at him with terrified, almost crazy eyes: "You are... challenging the whole world, all nobles in all countries!"

"Your words will subvert the legitimacy of all nobles, and everyone will regard you as an enemy!"

All nobles in all countries are using a series of excuses to promote their nobility. They are constantly emphasizing that they are born different and should be born to be rulers, while commoners should only be ruled.Even though because of the magical power of this world, the nobles will give some civilians a promotion channel—like Linguang—but they will tell everyone that this is a gift from God, not because everyone is born equal!

These tricks can basically be seen through by anyone who has read books and received higher education, but the problem is that there are still quite a few people in this world who have never received higher education, or even basic education, or any education!

So the rhetoric of the nobles is still valid, and they can still fool the general public.And if Gu Hengsheng spread the idea of ​​"Born Equal"...

No matter which country's rule will be shaken, they will unite and completely destroy Gu Hengsheng who spreads this idea!

Except for those rare idealists and even rarer low-level awakened people, no one will support his crazy idea.He can't do it alone, and will eventually be completely destroyed by the traditional and conservative forces of the whole world!

"Of course I know." Gu Hengsheng smiled, and he nodded slightly. There was neither madness nor fanaticism in his eyes, "That's why I didn't express my views publicly, I just talked to you today."

Linguang was slightly relieved, but she still looked at Gu Hengsheng with worry in her eyes.After hesitating for a moment, she asked in a low voice, "You... since when did you have this idea?"

"It's been there since a long time ago." Gu Hengsheng is not lying, as early as when he traveled to this world, the idea of ​​equality has been rooted in his heart, "I always think that talent is just a kind of reincarnation. By luck, everyone is born equal, and commoners look stupid because they lack enough nutritious food and a good education."

Linguang's eyes were slightly surprised, she felt that Gu Hengsheng saw it very thoroughly, and his viewpoint was very novel.Perhaps it is not accidental that he was able to make a career in a foreign country, he really has this ability...

"Occupying excellent social resources and living conditions, and then ridiculing those at the bottom as 'stupid and lazy', this is a rather brazen behavior." Gu Hengsheng's eyes gradually sharpened, and he unscrupulously evaluated the current aristocratic class, " And they didn't do much better!"

Linguang was a little speechless, she looked at Gu Hengsheng cautiously, hesitated for a moment, and said, "Hangsheng, are you...too radical?"

"Maybe..." Gu Hengsheng smiled bitterly, then shook his head slightly, "But there is no way, I can't get this thought out of my mind..."

He really can't help it. The education he received in his previous life for more than ten years made him unable to accept everything in this backward world, but he has no ability to change these for the time being.The world actually showed a thriving attitude, showing an upward trend as a whole, which made him see no hope of change.

All he can do is to strengthen himself, so that in the future, when there is an opportunity to make changes, he can mediate the universe!

"Forget it, let's not talk about this." Linguang waved his hand, signaling to change the subject.Then, her expression was slightly beaming, "Maybe next year, I should be able to become a titled knight!"

"Really?" Gu Hengsheng's expression brightened, "Your meritorious deeds are enough."

"I awarded it out of the ordinary, and the merit requirements are very low." Linguang said, "Probably lead the team to perform two more missions. After passing the assessment, you can get your own title."

"Do you want any titles?" Gu Hengsheng asked quickly, although he almost already had the answer.

"It's confirmed. It's called 'Bright Knight' based on my ability." Lin Guang said, "To be honest, I think it's quite appropriate."

Sure enough it was this.

"By the way, I remember the titled knight..." After hesitating for a while, Gu Hengsheng said, "Have you got your own fief?"

"That's right." Mentioning this, Linguang showed a happy smile, "I will have it later, but I don't plan to have it. I don't have the time and energy to take care of a fief."

"I can give you some money, and you can hire a housekeeper or something." Gu Hengsheng suggested, but Linguang still shook his head, "I still can't, I don't need these for the time being. With my strength, I already have enough Influence, can do what I want to do!"

"As for the fief and so on, when I can't work anymore and want to retire, I can ask the authorities for a piece of land!"

Seeing her high-spirited and energetic appearance, Gu Hengsheng knew that he might not be able to persuade her.

However, no problem.

"That's fine." He smiled, but he still warned uneasy, "If you encounter difficulties, don't be brave, tell me, I will be your backing."

"Got it." Linguang said with a sweet smile.

After thinking for a while, Gu Hengsheng decided to tell his plan now.So, he said to Linguang: "Sister, look at Senomi...isn't she quite suitable to be a knight?"

"Oh?" Linguang blinked his eyes, "It's hard to talk about talent, why do you think so?"

"It's...intuition." Realizing that he couldn't make it up, Gu Hengsheng began to tell the real reason, "I have to go to Victoria with Chen, so I can't take care of her, so I can only...please."

Immediately, Linguang looked at him with a slightly strange look: "You don't care about the slave you bought yourself, throw it to me?"

"Sister~" Gu Hengsheng grabbed her wrist and shook it lightly, "You see, I'm busy, and besides, you are a fifth-level knight now, so it should be easy to bring a servant or something?"

"I'm busy too. I'm still busy becoming a titled knight. How can I have extra time to take care of her?" Linguang rolled her eyes, but seeing Gu Hengsheng's playful smile, she knew that she was probably trying to avoid it. No more, "Okay, okay, I promise you."

"Sister is so kind." Gu Hengsheng deliberately behaved well.

"Tch." Seeing him like this, Lin Guang felt relieved, but his mouth was still unrelenting.

 

Chapter 221 Chapter 219

After the little girl finished her homework, a big problem began to trouble everyone.

How does Lily sleep?

There is only one guest room in Gu Hengsheng's house, and Chen has already taken it.It is obviously inappropriate for Li and Chen to share a room. Grandfather sleeps alone, and Gu Hengsheng sleeps alone, so after much deliberation, we can only...

"I'll make the floor in my grandfather's room, and let her sleep on my bed." Gu Hengsheng suggested.However, he didn't expect that this suggestion would attract Li's panic: "Master, you can't!"

She is a slave, how can she let her master sleep on the ground, while she sleeps on the bed with peace of mind?

This was an unforgivable thing, at least Li knew very well in his heart that this was definitely not something a slave should do.

And something she should do her best to avoid!

Regarding this, although the others did not say anything, they also knew that this arrangement was not in compliance with the rules.After thinking about it for a while, finally, Linguang stood up and said: "Let her sleep in my room, I will squeeze with my little sister, and she will sleep on my little sister's bed."

Although she is still very young, the little girl has already slept in separate beds with the adults.The habit of self-reliance should be cultivated from an early age. Anyway, the other bed is Linguang, and I am not afraid of anything.

"I... I'll just lay the floor." Li whispered, "I want to be with Master..."

As soon as these words came out, Gu Hengsheng was a little embarrassed, and several unkind eyes immediately fell on him.Even Platinum, who was in the dark, cast an unkind gaze secretly.The meaning is very obvious: if you dare to promise, you will die!

"Cough, this is not good." He coughed lightly, denying Li's suggestion, "Come according to Linguang's arrangement."
