The big merchants sighed and felt distressed.
It's no different than taking money out of their pockets.
Just because there is no shortage of human labor, they can reduce the cost of hiring people again and again, from the initial weekly salary of 1 gold coin and 4 silver coins to only 6 silver coins.
On the surface, hiring one person can get a gross profit of 8 silver coins, but in fact, the big businessman can squeeze more, because a hired worker often has to take on multiple jobs but can only get the money for one job.
If you don't do this, the boss will even feel that you are at a loss and will soon replace you.
If you don't do it, people will do it.
This sentence is often said by the merchants in Taosha City.
The workers in Taosha City are mainly miners, construction workers, and plantation workers. Most of the jobs can be replaced by undead creatures and slaves. Freeman workers are treated very poorly, and sooner or later they will be forced to sell themselves into slavery by the environment.
During the discussion period, some businessmen requested to slow down the implementation, and replace the immediate implementation with a gradual ban.
Regarding this point, Weiwei looked at Haramain, wanting to hear Haramain's opinion.
After pondering for a moment, Haraman said: "It is all feasible. Slowing down the implementation will allow businessmen to have a longer time to adapt and prepare, but I am more inclined to implement it immediately. Only in this way can a large number of jobs be released for the unemployed Going to work, recently because of the turmoil in Taosha City, many merchants and even local businessmen have left Taosha City, and some died due to civil strife... Their industries have fallen into management chaos, and many people have lost their jobs. It's a bigger destabilizing factor."
Even the "new bishop" of Liujin Church said so, and other businessmen had nothing to say.
Taosha City will abolish the privileges of the nobility, and will not even retain their titles. Their property and local taxation used to support them will all be used to build city-states and social welfare.
The only nobles in the city are the Mos Khan family and their relatives with different surnames, and the new patriarch and his family who have surrendered are not even qualified to participate in this meeting, and the others have already been exiled from the city.
Winner and loser, even if Weiwei intends to monopolize it, no one will say much.
This meeting confirmed that Taosha City will implement a parliamentary republic. The 10 people present, including Weiwei and Haraman, formed the Taosha City Council. After today, new councilors will continue to be recruited.
The method of electing members is the voting system. All citizens of Taosha City will have the right to vote, including those slaves who have not been officially liberated.
Haramain was elected as the Speaker, Dill became the Overseer, and Vivi became the Councilor along with others.
Those big businessmen know that behind this ostensible parliamentary republic, there is a shadow government composed of Haramain, Dior, and pagan nuns...
Enforced magical contracts prevent them from telling others even if they have witnessed it.
Use the merchant council on the surface as a curtain to cover up the abolition of slavery and paralyze the outside world, so that other city-states in the Sinai Desert will not be overly vigilant or even hostile. Send a good signal.
When the status quo is passed smoothly and people's thinking progresses, the state of this shadow government, which is actually a dictatorship, will disappear.
The meeting lasted from the afternoon until late at night.
The big merchants who were present were still complaining in their hearts, expecting the ex-bishop to lead the temple guards to kill here, and when Weiwei actually gave them a high political status, they all smiled happily, just as the losses they were going to pay Became a bribe to buy politicians.
As a result, the merchants took the initiative to pray to the goddess in their hearts that the former bishop should not look for trouble.
What is gratifying is that, as Haraman said, he has been recognized, and the temple guards have not come from beginning to end.
After that, the laws of Taosha City will be continuously adjusted and supplemented. After the new regime came to power, there are many things to be resolved. However, the content of this meeting has ended here. After that, the decision-making department will study the specific details by itself, and Weiwei And Haramain will plan the direction of Taosha City.
……
"Announcement! The Moshan family is cowardly and incompetent, allowing ogres to wreak havoc, and the internal struggle for power has led to civil strife in Taosha City! Depression! Dilapidation! The goddess is furious! The church has brought order to order, and the warlord family has been expelled!"
"From today, the interim government will take over all affairs in Taosha City!"
"Now announce the list of former government department personnel..."
In the early morning of the next day, surrounded by guards and bureaucrats, in the square outside the castle, a man shouted loudly. Beside him, the new head of the Moshan family stood beside him without saying a word. , quietly in front of the mascot.
The man stood on a temporary high platform. Except for the local people who watched the excitement, most of the people below were businessmen and famous local gentlemen. Apart from them, few people cared about politics.
"The interim government is supervised by the church to form a parliament. The current members include the speaker—Haraman Hassan, bishop of Liujin Church..."
"Member—Chairman of Oasis Fruit Company..."
"Member - Dio Brando, Chairman of the Black Sand Mercenary Company..."
"..."
"The above-mentioned people are the members of the current council, who enjoy the title of elders. Starting today, the size of the council will be expanded to 20 people, who are elected from all walks of life in Taosha City every year."
The title of senator enjoys certain privileges. The most important function is to automatically obtain the status of a member of parliament without election within 20 years. With this privilege, the big businessmen are determined to stand on the same line with the shadow government.
The man didn't mention Dai'er. Only the 10 people who formed the parliament knew about Dai'er as the supervisor behind the scenes, and they couldn't tell others about it.
"It is hereby announced that from then on, all citizens of Taosha City will have the right to vote, and the statistics department will organize population statistics and establish community organizations..."
Following the man's voice, the people below suspected that they had heard it wrong.
What shocked them even more was yet to come.
"... Taosha City will completely outlaw slavery in the future! No matter whether it is an official organization or a private person, it is not allowed to buy, sell, use, or enslave others in any way. Violators will be regarded as human trafficking and forced labor, and depending on the situation, they may be sentenced to death."
The crowd was in an uproar, and someone immediately became anxious, "Then what about the female slave I just bought a few days ago? I haven't played enough yet!"
"What's the hurry, take her to the sub-district office set up by the Shining Society, and hand it over to the Shining Society within today, don't blame me for not reminding you, she is free from now on, don't hold on to something and play for the last time mentality, otherwise...hehe, they can sue you for rape."
"Then, I bought it for 15 gold coins, and the Guangyao Society will have to pay me for it!"
"Yo, it's so expensive? You guys are really willing to give up. Don't worry, bring a contract to prove the value, Guangyao will guarantee compensation." The big man smiled, and said in a warning tone, "The adults above attach great importance to this One thing, the security guards selected from the local army will search every house soon, you better be more conscious.”
This man also made a speech about the benefits of abolishing slavery according to the pre-written speech, and he said it so logically that the businessmen below didn't understand it at first, but it became more and more reasonable after listening to it.
It's just that the sudden increase in the cost of hiring people is a bit unacceptable, but in the long run, it can indeed inject fresh vitality into the prosperity of the city-state.
Chapter 237 Chapter 231 Leapfrogging directly to single out the Qinglei natural disaster, I am the protagonist, I appoint Quack to kill randomly
"Looking for a strong enemy, focus on nothing else."
"There will be no mercy for the wicked."
"For victory, do whatever it takes."
"If you encounter bad results, try your best to make up for it."
Even at the expense of purity, justice must be served.
Even if it is stained with blood, justice must be upheld.
The noisy human voice gradually sounded, and it was not very real.
"I love you, forgive me... this is a necessary evil!"
"Tyl! Bless me!"
"For a better tomorrow."
"Farewell, fellow citizens."
"You go first, this means a lot to me."
"Paladin, witness my end."
The words spoken by the voice are not all common languages, sometimes there are Elvish and Celestial languages, and of course there are languages that Weiwei can't understand.
These voices, like dying words, gradually echoed in Weiwei's ears.
At this time, someone handed over a long sword: "It's your turn."
The person holding the long sword is like a ghost, ethereal, transparent and formless like smoke.
"who are you?"
"Axiom, justice."
Weiwei was about to take the long sword, but a voice faintly rang in her ear: "Hey, the front is hell."
Weiwei was taken aback when she heard the words, and withdrew her hand.
She hesitated.
It was her own voice.
The person who handed the long sword didn't say anything, took back the long sword and stood there holding the sword, the darkness came like a tide, but it still couldn't swallow it.
"Vivi Owen, you are not ready yet."
After the voice fell, Weiwei who was sleeping suddenly woke up.
Her pupils were dilated, she sat up like a drowning person and took a big gulp of air, her forehead was covered with fine beads of sweat.
She still remembered that she had a long dream, but when she wanted to think about it, she couldn't think of anything.
Weiwei rubbed her hair a little irritatedly, the roughness of her hair treatment was enough to make the programmer scream in fright.
Ruxue's hair stuck to her ears, obviously she was sweating a lot again.
There was the sound of quiet breathing, and Weiwei turned her head slightly. Dai'er was sleeping quietly beside her. Her peaceful sleeping face made it hard to believe that she was a One-Punch Man.
Weiwei poked Dai'er's face mischievously, and slid her fingers down her cheeks to her chin. She couldn't help but marvel at the wonder of magic, which could turn a mighty dragon into such a delicate beauty.
Weiwei thought of the two blue dragons she had seen so far, one was a young dragon that was used to save the lycanthropy, and the other was an adult blue dragon that killed the tyrannosaurus that was chasing her with thunderous force .
Recalling the ferocious dragon face of the blue dragon, Weiwei felt very unreal.
Sleep like hell.
Seeing that Dai'er didn't respond, a bold idea emerged in Weiwei's heart.
With a smirk on her face, she tiptoed out of bed and went outside to get a quill. After soaking the quill in the ink for a few seconds, Weiwei returned to the room.
Jie Jie Jie, dear Sister Dai'er, if you want to blame you, you got crazy and insisted on spanking my ass last night!
Recalling last night when she returned to the hotel room after the meeting, Dai'er closed the door without mentioning that she put herself on her lap, and then she was pumped wildly!
QWQ Thinking of this, Weiwei couldn't help but grieve her teeth, now it's finally my turn to take revenge!
Although I can use the healing technique to directly heal the bruises, and Dai'er didn't use much force, if she really tried to use force, Weiwei might have turned into Weiwei sauce...
But that doesn't mean I'm not angry!
Weiwei walked lightly to Dai'er, took a quill and scribbled on Dai'er's face, all written in Celestial language, such as "Baopilong", "Guawazi", "Hanpi" and other words combined with the dialect of the previous life Words, people in this world can never understand just by looking at the literal meaning.
As it was written, Weiwei couldn't help laughing, and her whole body couldn't help shaking.
Weiwei stopped writing for a while, seeing that Sister Dai'er still didn't respond, she became more and more courageous.
At the same time, the little angel in her heart was crossing her hands and crazily warned: "Stop! Stop! Calm down, be careful of overturning the car!"
But the little devil couldn't help but sneered: "You see, this little angel is so humble, he doesn't dare? Unlike me, super brave."
The little angel had bulging veins on his forehead, and said in a bad tone, "Huh? How could a mere defeated dog have the nerve to bark?"
The two of them didn't speculate for half a sentence, and immediately scuffled together.
In reality, Weiwei finally made up her mind when she saw Dai'er sleeping soundly.
As the saying goes, if you support the bold and starve the timid, it's time to test your courage!
(harmonious content)
What she didn't know was that Dai'er had opened her eyes at this time.
She hadn't been asleep.
Anglers are known to have great patience waiting for the day when the fish will take the bait.
Dai'er lifted the quilt directly.
(harmonious content)
Dai'er looked at Weiwei indifferently, and the corner of her mouth curled up in a nice arc.
"Is it fun?"
Although Dai'er's smile looks good, Weiwei has no intention of admiring it now. After a few awkward laughs, she explained forcefully: "Actually... this is art! That's right, it's art from the Kingdom of Jotun, ahahaha , You must have never seen it in the desert, right?"
While talking, Weiwei crawled on the bed, ready to find a chance to escape.
"Oh, that's it~"
Dai'er stretched as if accepting the statement.
good chance!Weiwei got up and ran away, but there was a sudden force from her ankle.
"Eh eh?"
After a while of dizziness, Wei Wei was lifted upside down by Dai'er grabbing her ankle with one hand. Weiwei knew she had fallen, and she looked at Dai'er wanting to cry without tears, and launched an offensive to pass the level.
"Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
