Magic Industry Empire

Vol 5 Chapter 92: Why should we abolish slaves?

What happened on the southern waters of the Candela empire thousands of kilometers away did not affect the Principality of Constantine and the New Flyers Chamber of Commerce. ←

In the recent period, the most striking thing in the Stadings, and even in the surrounding countries, is a bill being decided by the Parliament of the Principality of Constantine.

The bill was proposed by Xu Yi, the president of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, as an ordinary member of the National Assembly.

According to Xu’s unparalleled influence in Standin’s territory, it would have been easy to pass any proposal, but the proposal took two months to enter the final assembly process of Congress and also passed Congress. Members will vote in public and decide whether the resolution will take effect.

The reason why this proposal is so difficult is because the content of the proposal is really amazing.

The content of this proposal is actually the abolition of slavery!

When Xu also made this proposal for the first time, everyone thought he was crazy at all.

Since the centuries-old elves ruled the entire continent, slavery has always existed on this continent. Until now, the history of slaves has even surpassed tens of thousands of years.

In this tens of thousands of years, slavery has not changed anything, no matter how the mainland changes, even in the two thousand years before and after the ethnic war, slaves reached their peak in the whole continent.

Before the ethnic war, the elves almost treated all other races as slaves, and after the ethnic war, they switched to humans to capture other races as slaves.

As for human beings, they will also use a large number of similar species as slaves.

For all people on the continent of Sainz, the existence of slaves is a normality that everyone is used to. No one will feel that there is anything wrong with this.

Now Xu also suddenly ran out to say that he wanted to cancel slavery. This is simply to challenge everyone's common sense. Challenge the default rules of the entire continent.

Especially in those slave owners who have gained a lot of benefits from slaves, they even sneered at Xu’s proposal and strongly opposed it.

Originally because of the huge influence of the new Feishang Chamber of Commerce on the Principality of Stantin, all the lords of the public can only cooperate and dare not object to any proposal by Xu.

However, when Xu also threw out this proposal, these lords who had consistently listened to Xu’s arrangements actually expressed their opposition to this proposal.

In the first vote on this proposal, the approval vote for this proposal was actually an amazing zero vote!

This shows how much impact this proposal has on everyone. How strong is the opposition.

However, with the strong influence of the New Flying Chamber of Commerce on the Principality of Stading, under the strong promotion of Xu Yi, this proposal still received more votes in favor, and finally entered the final agreement procedure.

Today, it is the day when the State Council of the Principality of Constantine launched a final agreement on this proposal.

As long as this proposal can be passed today, it means that the Principality of Constantine will officially abolish slavery from today.

According to incomplete statistics, the total number of slaves owned by Stantin is now between 160,000 and 170,000.

Once the slavery is abolished, the more than 160,000 slaves will become ordinary civilians, and the social impact is undoubtedly enormous.

So the adoption of this proposal is not. It can be said that the entire Principality of Stading will be in great turmoil.

For many people, this is not a good thing.

"Why should I vigorously promote the abolition of slavery?" Xu also smiled and looked at the Baron of Hainas sitting opposite. Slowly shook his head. "Of course not because, as many people have said, I and the saints generally see that slaves suffer, so I want to abolish this system and liberate them."

"Can't you completely deny this? From your attitude towards the slaves in your name, you can see that your attitude towards slaves has been very mild." Baron Henas asked.

Today is the final time for the decision of the Parliament of the Principality of Constantine to abolish the proposal of the abolition of slavery. However, because this incident is too interesting, several countries around the country have sent people to pay attention to this matter, and countless newspapers have also targeted This matter is intended to be reported.

The final agreement of the Congress began in the afternoon, so in the morning, Xu also held a special press conference to accept interviews from various newspapers.

Now at the press conference, I squeezed into reporters from almost all newspapers in the neighboring countries, including the Kingdom of Lampari, the Kingdom of Rulson, the Principality of Drach, the Principality of Milan, the Principality of Norton, and even the Sark Kingdom. Three newspapers were sent to report on this matter.

The total number of reporters even exceeded 500, and the hall, which was originally spacious, was crowded and almost nowhere to be found.

The reporters are all well-informed people. Naturally, Xu knows that he has a deep personal friendship with Baron Henas, the editor-in-chief of the Lampari Weekly, so the first question was left to him consciously.

"From my personal point of view, I really don't want to see slaves being cruelly treated. Because for me, there are no slaves and civilians. Everyone is the same human being, why should they be separated? Come, treat your own kind as a beast as cruelly as they are?" Xu Yizheng.

"But there are many foreigners in the slaves besides human beings. Do you want to treat them like the same kind?" A reporter suddenly asked loudly.

Other reporters turned to look at the reporter who asked the question, thinking that this guy is an idiot.

It’s a bit of a problem for other people to ask this question. It’s not a complete waste of time for Xu.

Sure enough, Xu also smiled and replied: "There are not much differences between other races and human beings. Isn't it? Our new flyers have hired so many other ethnic employees these years, and I have not seen them from us. There is something particularly different. If you really want to say something, it’s probably a certain difference in your own culture. But even among us humans, is there not a cultural difference caused by the difference in ethnic areas? So I think this Not a problem."

"Mr. Xu. Let us return to the topic. You just answered from a personal point of view. I hope to abolish slavery. But you are the president of the New Flying Chamber of Commerce. It is a powerful influence that everyone knows." Big man, you made this proposal, obviously it is impossible to completely consider it from your personal point of view?" Another reporter asked.

"Of course." Xu also did not hesitate at all and nodded. "Of course this proposal also has my consideration from a holistic perspective."

"President Xu, I am a journalist from the Kingdom of Rulson. Before I came here, I heard a message. In our Kingdom of Rulson, there is a chamber of commerce dedicated to making magic lights, because all of them are used. It’s a slave worker. So the magic lights they produce are cheaper, and the price is much lower than your new flying magic lamp. It’s very popular in our Kingdom of Rulson. You are now proposing to abolish slavery, is it because I was aware of the threat from this chamber of commerce?" A reporter from the crowd asked loudly.

All the reporters in the audience are moving.

Many people in this news are heard for the first time. If this is true, then the reason why Xu proposed this proposal can be intriguing.

Xu also glanced at the reporter and asked: "What do you mean by the Sanchi Chamber of Commerce in the city of Rio?"

The reporter applied for a trip and did not answer, apparently the default.

Xu also smiled and continued: "First of all. My proposal is only for the Principality of Stading, even if the proposal was finally passed. It also affects the Kingdom of Rulson. The Sanchi Chamber of Commerce wants to continue to use slave workers. It is still no problem. Will not be affected."

All the people in the audience nodded.

The Principality of Constantine can only be regarded as a small country, which is much worse than the Kingdom of Rulson.

If it is not the new Feishang Association here, and this proposal is too shocking, I am afraid that not many people will pay too much attention to the policies of such a small country.

"Secondly, the magic lights produced by the Sanchi Chamber of Commerce did not pass the quality inspection of the Royal Industries Administration of the Kingdom of Rulson, but chose to sell them privately. It has seriously violated the rules of the magic industry management of the Kingdom of Rulson and is now accepting Ruhr. Do you know if the investigation by the Magic Industry Management Agency of the Kingdom of Song Dynasty instructs it to suspend business for rectification?"

The eyes of the people fell on the face of the journalist who claimed to be the Kingdom of Rulson, and found that his look was awkward.

Obviously, he knew this thing, but deliberately chose not to say it.

"Finally, why do you think that I will regard the magic lamp produced by such a chamber of commerce as a threat? I think... Any reporter here will not think that this Sanqi Chamber of Commerce will threaten our new Feishang Chamber of Commerce. What?"

The people in the audience couldn't help but nod.

This Sanqi Chamber of Commerce did not hear them. What did they compare with the new Feishang Chamber of Commerce?

This guy actually thinks that Xu also feels that the Sanchi Chamber of Commerce has threatened the new Feishang Association, which is ridiculous!

The reporter passed a blush on his face and arrogantly arrogantly said: "Mr. Xu, perhaps the Sanchi Chamber of Commerce will not pose any threat to your new flyer, but you must be afraid that other chambers of commerce will also use slave workers to reduce costs and Do you compete with the new Feishang Chamber? You want to abolish slavery, it is definitely because of this situation!"

Other reporters in the audience have fallen into silence.

In fact, this is also their doubts.

If it is not from the perspective of the New Flying Chamber of Commerce, why does Xu also have to be thankless, spend so much effort, and face the opposition of so many people to abolish slavery?

"Maybe you are right. This is indeed a problem. But I must remind you of a fact, not only now, even a few years ago, many chambers of commerce were using slave workers, but they did not have a special advantage. Do you understand why?" Xu also asked.

Everyone looked at each other and found that Xu also had this problem unreasonable, but in fact, it is worth pondering.

Yes, it is not a day or two that slaves exist on the mainland of Sainz.

There are a lot of chambers of commerce that produce magical machinery in these countries. Many of them have adopted a large number of slave workers to reduce production costs, but this does not give them any advantage.

This is not for the New Flying Chamber of Commerce, because in the magic industry, it is impossible for any chamber of commerce to be comparable to the new company.

Rather, compared to other chambers of commerce in the same industry, the Chamber of Commerce that adopted slaves did not achieve a particularly large advantage.

"This is the biggest reason why I hope to abolish slavery. It is also the conclusion I made after my overall consideration. The reason is very simple. The vast majority of slaves are, in my opinion, not really a complete one. labor force."

"Because slaves are generally unable to receive education and do not have any enthusiasm or initiative, even if they participate in production, they are only completely passive. Such workers will not only reduce production costs in actual production, but actually Will greatly affect production efficiency and product quality."

"From a businessman's point of view, these slave workers are completely negative assets of the Chamber of Commerce. What I want to do now is to turn these negative assets into positive!" (To be continued, please search for astronomical literature, the novel is better.) Update faster!
