Chapter 163 The Riot of the Poor

Chapter 177 The Riot of the Poor

Shen Ao's voice echoed above everyone.

echoed in everyone's ears:

"The first new rule: Trista Town will be closed from now on. Everyone brings their own luggage to provide labor for the construction of the Huaxia city-state. The elderly, children, pregnant women, and disabled people who do not have a labor force are subject to approval. , through the unified care of the Huaxia city-state."

"Article [-]: All personnel participating in labor must obey the dispatch of Huaxia City-State, and Huaxia will provide food, security, and technology."

"When I first entered, everyone was at the lowest level. The lowest-level workers had no wages and only had food for daily needs. As long as you go up one level, you can get a monthly salary of 1 silver coin! As long as you work hard to learn skills, the highest Some even get several gold coins as a monthly salary!"

The villagers of Duoxi rely on farming to support their families. Before Shen Ao appeared, their monthly average income could not even reach 1 silver coin.A monthly salary of 10 silver coins is considered a high-paying job, let alone several gold coins!
There is also a reason for Shen Ao to set such a condition.

In the more than ten years since Santa Rita became the lord of the city, the slums have raised a lot of waste.If you don't set it like this, there will definitely be a bunch of people who are lazy.The people at the bottom only provide food, and the people at the upper level start to provide wages. This kind of ladder approach is the optimal solution.

He continued:

"The experience and technology you have learned in the Huaxia city-state will not be outdated! And there are still many cities that need to be built in the future, so many of them will be of use to you. And as long as you are willing to work hard, it is actually not at all to get a salary." Difficult! You can even live a very rich life!"

"From now on, you will be forced to work 8 hours a day, and you will be divided into three shifts a day."

"Everyone returns to their residences immediately and packs their things. Gather here before evening, and when people start to move, I will set a fire and burn the whole town to ashes. If anyone wants to be burned to death , Just find a place to hide!"

In a short time, he might be scolded to death by these people, but in the long run, most of them will definitely thank him.

Around the town, there are millions of skeletons.

The skeletons not only surrounded the town, but also blocked the only way for the residents of the town, preventing them from escaping!
……

At dusk, the city residents returned to the west side of the town reluctantly.

Although Shen Ao gave them a good prospect, but in their eyes, it was clear that he had just escaped from the wolf's mouth and entered the tiger's mouth again.

Rukia released a third-level skill 'Hell Cage', allowing the town residents to enter the cages in batches.The teleportation scroll has a teleportation limit each time, and the hell cage can hold 5 people at a time, so that the carrying efficiency can be maximized, and it only needs to be transported 8 times in this way.

Shipping was done quickly.

After everything was finished, Rukia closed the gate of hell and returned to the villa first.And Shen Ao set off to the territory to carry out the final handover work with Zhou Tianlin.

Arriving in their new surroundings, the residents were clearly terrified.

Seeing that Lukia beside Shen Ao had disappeared, some residents burst into irritable emotions.

"We want to see the Lord City Lord!"

"Obviously, we didn't have to work in the city and we had food, so why do we have to work?"

"You are clearly using us as slaves!"

"You said that you are the teacher of the lord of the city, but this is not the style of the lord of the city at all. The lord of the city will not force us to do these things!"

"That's it!"

A group of thorns put pressure on Shen Ao.

Although Zhou Tianlin and the Huaxia soldiers were helping to stabilize their emotions, because there were too many of them, the effect they could achieve was not satisfactory.

Shen Ao looked at them coldly:

"I really don't know what you guys who provoke trouble are thinking! When you were in the small town of Trista, your life might be taken away at any time because of a hanging tag. In your eyes, it is your own life after all. important? Or is the so-called freedom more important?"

Facing Shen Ao's questioning, these provocateurs are still relentless:
"Isn't it the same now?"

"We are trapped here like slaves and forced to work. Isn't it more uncomfortable than death?"

"Let the city lord come out!"

"We must see the City Lord today!"

There are only a few who provoke trouble in the crowd, but if these few are not controlled, it will definitely cause more serious things.

Shen Ao sneered:
"You want to see the city lord, right? Okay! I'll bring her here now, so you can give up!"

He went back to the villa.

As soon as Santa Rita appeared, those thorns intensified.

"My lord, when you came to power, you signed an agreement with our slums. You said that you would subsidize us with the money of the rich, so we gave up on the crusade against the rich. Those rich people hide in the castle to gain popularity Drink spicy food, but we can only eat hard bread every day!"

"We have endured these too!"

"But what do you mean by forcing us here to work now?"

"If you don't work, you won't be given food?"

"Aren't you going to force us to make trouble!"

Santa Rita originally wanted to have a good talk with them.

Listen to them.

She is really heartbroken!

When she first came to power more than a decade ago, the slums were an ungovernable mess.If she hadn't stopped them, the nobles in the wealthy areas would have mobilized their legions to completely wipe out the slums!From this matter, these people should be grateful to her, right?but no!

Especially in those eyes...

Some are just indifferent!

That's it!

"Did you all think so about what happened back then?"

Santa Rita looked bitter.

"What do you mean you think so?"

"If so many people from our slums poured into the city, they would wipe out all the nobles in a matter of minutes! We only stopped it for your sake. If you want to change the rules in the slums, you must give Let us explain!"

"We demand that the town be rebuilt and that food relief be continued to be distributed to us! Otherwise, if so many of us make trouble, you may not be able to bear it!"

"..."

The people below were all talking in rebellion.

Santa Rita was so angry that blood rushed to her forehead. She held her forehead and felt dizzy.

The number of people in slums is indeed high.

If they want to cause trouble, they really shouldn't be ignored.

She didn't want to start a war back then, so she negotiated with the nobles of all parties in the city for a long time, and decided to raise taxes for everyone in the city and feed back the slums through the city-state treasury.If riots broke out in the slums, then no one in the rich areas, civilian areas, and suburban villages would be able to stay out of it!

"Return our town!"

“Other towns don’t need jobs, so why do we need jobs?”

"We demand a return to the previous state!"
