Radiant Enemy

Chapter 67 The Pharaoh who Shines on Egypt

20 people are living in hell on earth, and Hilgener has no idea.

"Report the specific number of people to me immediately, this is an order."

Hilgner's throat was blocked for a long time before he finally spit out his own voice.

The situation was even worse than Hilgener expected. The final number of people reported to Hilgener was not the estimated 20, but 30. According to concealment and misreporting, the number may be even more.

Although Hilgner knew that the ruling class would have to exploit several times as many people at the bottom to maintain their luxurious life, but after seeing the tragedy with his own eyes and hearing the silent cry with his own ears, the white-haired prince felt extremely heavy.

The first country he took over, Kish, had not a lot of people due to the era in which he lived, and La Grocchita was not only because of the same small number of people, but also because Hilgna had used his abilities since he was a child. Secretly reforming the country, after he ascended the throne, this kind of simple exploitation will never happen.

The population of Egypt has reached millions, not only in Thebes located on the Nile, but also in large cities such as Memphis and Libya.

Unlike Hilgna's former kingdoms, Egypt is a very powerful and stable feudal monarchy, and there will only be more slaves and civilians who are responsible for labor and construction.

The reason why there are so many slaves and untouchables gathered here is that they were sent to this place to build the temple.

The project of building the temple represents the admiration of the Egyptian people for the Nine Pillars God they revered, so it is also a particularly important task.

Ozyman Diaz entrusted this work to Hilgna, which proved his full trust in the Hittite prince.

Hilgner didn't want to betray his trust, but he also didn't want to see such a tragedy.

Arash followed by Hilgna's side. After all, it was the first time for his master to take office, and he didn't want to miss such a memorable scene.

But he also saw the scene of hell.

After Arash became a heroic spirit, he didn't have any wishes that he wanted to fulfill. The reason why he responded to the Holy Grail was because he wanted to do good deeds.

"Master, what are you going to do?" Arash couldn't hold back the agitation in his heart and wanted to do something at the moment, and looked at Hilgna, but when Hilgna's cold expression came into his eyes , he breathed a sigh of relief, subconsciously thinking that Hilgna had a way to help those poor people.

Hilgner, however, lost his usual calm and composed expression. He was sitting in his room on the construction site. It is the various data and materials of this temple from the beginning of construction to the present.

"It's difficult." Hilgna sighed softly. To save so many efforts without causing unrest in Egypt is equivalent to the difficulty of hell.

"There are obviously many methods, but no one is suitable." Silgner messed up his short hair, and his mind kept flashing through the plan, but he rejected it by himself after simulating the feasibility.

The exhaustion caused by overloading the mind caused Hilgna to fall on the bed and spread his body flat.

Improving the living environment of slaves and filling their stomachs is only a temporary solution, not a permanent cure.

If you want to rescue them from this never-ending slavery, the most critical issue is...to overthrow the ruling class that is oppressing them.

But the feasibility is too low, and the basic conditions are not enough.

Even if Hilgna rises up, they have nowhere to go in this land surrounded by yellow sand and ocean; and these people who are used to being enslaved, as long as Hilgna relieves their status quo, they will have no courage to resist up.

Throughout the ages, the docile people who resisted have been forced to die and rise up when they can't bear it anymore.

But it is imminent to improve the living environment of slaves, no matter which direction they go, it is a high dead wall.

Arash looked at Hilgna for a while, and a trace of unbearableness flashed across his eyes.

Hilgna was able to become a minister trusted and relied on by the Egyptian Pharaoh from a mere mere mere mediator. It was already because of his extraordinary talent. Along the way, he never lacked the swords, swords, swords, and difficulties of designing his life.

It was unfair to put the lives of 30 slaves on him.

"Now that the Master has become the Minister of Construction, I want to use my job to help those poor people without slowing down the progress of the construction."

Arash relieved kindly.

Hilgna didn't make a sound, his azure blue eyes flickered on and off, as if he was thinking about something.

"Yes." Hilgna said calmly.

Hilgner deliberated many policies in his mind, no matter what, they could somewhat reduce the suffering of the slaves.

When Hilgna closed his eyes for a rest tiredly, the sky had already turned slightly fish-belly pale.

And not long after, Hilgna was woken up by the shouts of the guards and the sound of leather whips.

Although it was not time for Hilgna to go over to monitor, the white-haired prince still got up silently.

When he came to the construction site, the first thing he did was to call all the slaves and guards who were currently present under the high wall.

As a minister directly appointed by the pharaoh, Hilgna lived in a place beyond the imagination of these untouchables and slaves.

He stood on a high wall, with a huge road below him, and occasionally he could hear the hoarse voices of the guards scolding the slaves.

Hilgner waited until it was quiet, and then read out the order he had thought up overnight.

"I checked the construction speed of the temple in recent years, it is really too slow."

"In order to please His Majesty the Pharaoh Ramses, I decided to implement a new supervision system."

"Divide you into various groups, each responsible for building a certain part of the temple. If the No. 1 group completes quickly and well that day, everyone from supervisors to slaves will be rewarded."

"When the temple is completely completed, I will personally reward the group with the most No.1 times—and remove slavery for them."

If the previous system changes made the slaves still numb, but when they heard that there was a reward, and even allowed them to get rid of their slavery, they suddenly raised their heads in disbelief, feeling incredible for such a generous exploiter.

Are they dreaming today?

Hilgner didn't know what the slaves were thinking, but continued: "Similarly, the guards are not allowed to beat the slaves in the kingdom. These slaves are the property of the Pharaoh, and if there is a dead person, there will be punishment."

It was a hornet's nest, and the guards protested: "But these bastards are lazy and stupid, how can they complete their work without whips and thorns to drive them away?!"

Hilgner ignored their protests, and said coldly after finishing speaking: "Anyone who disagrees can report to Pharaoh, and anyone who has any questions can ask me carefully now, if not, the new system will be implemented from now on! "

The coercion and arrogance of Hilgna, who has experienced two generations, is not something that the low-level slave guards can resist, and Osman Diaz is worried that he has no manpower. The soldiers sent to him even showed their shields And weapons, even if there is any objection to the cold and dangling blade, no one dares to say it.

Hilgner waited patiently for a while, and when no one made a sound, he said again: "Does anyone have any questions?"

"My lord, is what you said true? As long as you do well, you will be rewarded?" Someone did ask this time, but it was not the supervisor, but a certain young slave.

Her mother was frightened, she quickly covered the child's mouth, and suppressed the daring girl deeply, the person who was found to ask such rebellious words was her own child.

Hilgner didn't get angry, he said loudly: "I swear to the sun god, I will never break my promise - the team that does the best, everyone will be rewarded."

The words Hilgna swears to the gods made the slaves unable to keep quiet anymore, buzzing about, and even the overseer showed excitement.

The work of building the temple is very hard, and these slaves have nothing to earn, and they have to be exposed to the scorching sun. If what Silgner said is true, then their good days are coming!

Hilgner also knew that it was impossible to accomplish it overnight. He had just arrived, and he didn't have many reliable confidants and manpower. It was not impossible for someone to deliberately deceive others for rewards.

But Hilgner couldn't bear it any longer.

What's more, he is not completely at a disadvantage. Pharaoh Ramses II has given him great power, and he can also use this power ring in his hand to mobilize soldiers in the city. With Arash by his side, what is there to be afraid of?

Hilgner is not the type to keep a low profile while holding such a good card.

In this life, he had already decided to live freely, so how could he wrong himself?

When night fell, Hilgna summoned the slaves and overseers again.

He rewarded the team that did the best job without beating slaves or dying, with golden gold.

When Hilgna handed over the gold that shone brightly even in the night to these slaves and guards, everyone was overjoyed.

"I actually gave it!"

"It's not a lie!"

Hilgner knew that these people were actually not lucky after they got the gold. Among so many people, who knows if those people with evil intentions will see them get rich and want to murder them?

But in order for the system to be implemented better, Hilgner had no choice but to let them stand on the cusp of the storm, and sent his soldiers to reinforce the door for them as much as possible, and warned them to be careful.

Some performed well, and naturally some performed poorly.

As Hilgner expected, among the hundreds of thousands of slaves, there were always some smart people.

But they couldn't escape Arash's eyes. With the help of Heroic Spirit, who could be called a cheating existence, Hilgna read out their crimes of damaging the Pharaoh's "property" with a blank face, and then stripped them of their official positions and threw them away. To the brigade building the temple.

But at the same time, he also promised that as long as they can get No. 1 the most times among the construction teams in their area, they can cancel their punishment.

It's not that no one complained, but here, Hilgna is the biggest oppressor and exploiter. How can a mere supervising soldier be able to fight against Hilgna who has elite soldiers and is powerful?

After the riots happened several times and were firmly suppressed by Hilgna, gradually no one dared to stand up against Hilgna.

The speed of temple construction is also very gratifying.

Hilgner later proposed that slaves who can think of a feasible way to speed up the progress can remove his slave status, and the supervisor can also be promoted from managing a team to managing the team leader, directly connecting with Hilgner.

This can be regarded as providing a very obvious opportunity for slaves and guards to jump up. Suddenly, some people are ready to move. The methods Hilgener receives every day are almost innumerable, but most of them are also extremely absurd. At this stage Impossible.

When Hilgner was king in the previous two lives, it was not like he had not had such high-intensity work, and because of his experience and experience, he could test whether it could be used in his mind with just a glance.

But he didn't feel bored. Under Hilgna's patient teaching, Osman Diaz was originally sent to protect the soldiers he sent, but he used them as his servants.

Of course, Hilgner also took into account the natural status gap between the slave and the guard. If the guard wanted to take the method that the slave came up with, it would be impossible to guard against it.

Many of the slaves were illiterate, not to mention writing on papyrus, and they didn't know how to write their own names.

So Hilgna will go to a certain area to patrol every few days.

At that time, the slaves could see the 'saint' Hilgna who was only glimpsed as a white dot in the distance.

That's right, Hilgna has been regarded as a saint by the slaves and untouchables here, and he even corresponds to the 'Prophet Moses' whom he has heard before, and Hilgna is secretly enshrined.

The most important thing is probably because, when a supervisor and a slave quarreled over a feasible plan to speed up the progress, Hilgner wisely judged that the lieutenant was the supervisor, and the owner of the plan was the slave.

Originally, this slave thought he was doomed. After all, Hilgner, as a minister, was of course on the side of the supervisor, but he was really unwilling to hand over such a generous reward to others, and knowing that the white-haired minister kept his word, Thinking of the gold that his companions had obtained before, he gritted his teeth and took advantage of Silgner's inspection, directly threw himself at Silgner's feet and begged him to make decisions.

He announced on the spot that he had captured the prisoner and released the slave. Wen Sheng asked him if he was willing to help him build the temple together, and promised to pay him.

Of course, this slave would not refuse such a good thing, so he followed Hilgna and left the construction sites in various regions under the envious eyes of others in a daze.

The slave named Aaron thought in a trance, could it be that this unbelievably good-looking young man was really the legendary saint prophet who would come to save them?

In any case, everything is proceeding in an orderly manner. Apart from the gold, silver and jewels that Hilgna rewarded him from Ramses II, many of Hilgna's rewards came from Hilgna himself.

In this way, he selected leaders and wise people from the slaves, and gave them the right to lead other slaves in turn.

But in the same way, even if they change from slaves to overseers, slaves must not be harmed.

Regarding this point, Hilgner is very strict. Once they make a mistake, they will not tolerate it, and will not give them a second chance to become freemen.

Because of Hilgna's rules and regulations, Arash was naturally given the status of a freeman by lurking among the slaves, and became Hilgna's close servant.

And the existence of Arash made the slaves who didn't know the truth very excited. Everyone tried their best to complete their work, so as to break away from the identity of slaves and soar into the sky.

The woman and child Hilgna also gave them tasks, and he was also divided into several pottery and weaving teams, and also promised rewards.

The construction site is thriving. If there are Egyptian officials passing by, no one would have guessed that such a scene of working in full swing and the supervisor not letting them work too much to avoid sudden death would appear in this place that should have been used by all slaves. In the construction site where civilians are shunned.

There are countless bones buried at the bottom of the majestic temple. This sentence is not alarmist, but real.

But Hilgna gave them a glimmer of hope, and made them work harder and more positively.

It was obvious that everything was on the right track. The guards and slaves were used to Hilgna's new system and believed in his orders, but the smile on Hilgna's face became less and less.

"I can't stay here forever." Hilgna said to Arash with a wry smile.

"The temple can never be finished, and it is impossible for Osman Diaz to keep me here as an overseer."

Sooner or later Hilgna would return to the court of Thebes, the temple whose construction work Osman Diaz had gilded his seniority.

Once Hilgna leaves here, can the new system that originally relied on him continue to be implemented?

Of course it is impossible. If you want the oppressors to spit out the oil and water they eat to the slaves and the bottom supervisors, it is better to expect these slaves to awaken and overthrow the exploiters.

What's more, Hilgna was able to maintain this system, not only because he had accumulated a lot of gold and silver over the years, but also because of Osman Diaz's trust and support.

Hilgner knew very well that if someone with a heart found out about his behavior, it would be easy for him to be accused of several crimes.

but……

"Why should I endure it?" Hilgner has both means and a heart. He also knows that such a system will not last long, but at least when he is around, some people can be relieved from the sea of ​​suffering.

And whether these people who have escaped from the sea of ​​suffering will take care of themselves alone, or help their compatriots who are still suffering, depends on their consciousness.

The sun rose and set, and when Silgner saw Osman Diaz who came to the construction site privately in a micro-service, he vaguely remembered that he seemed to have been here for several months.

I haven't seen him for a few months, but Osman Diaz's royal splendor is even worse. He still has a calm and prestige in his gestures and gestures. Even though he is wearing ordinary clothes, he is still glorious.

"Hill!" Osman Diaz showed a smile. He jumped off his horse and strode towards Hilgna.

"You are completely immersed in your work, leaving the rest of you alone in the palace to be extremely boring." Osman Diaz raised his eyebrows.

"You didn't bring your guards with you?" Hilgna looked around Osman Diaz, frowned and said, "This is too dangerous."

"This is Yu's land, and Yu is the ruler here. Those who dare to disrespect the pharaoh will be punished by heaven."

Osman Diaz didn't care, he was blessed by the sun god Ra, and he was an extremely brave warrior, so how could he be afraid of Xiaoxiao's prying eyes.

When he saw that the construction site of the temple was in an orderly and bustling state, he curled his lips in satisfaction and said, "It's really right to entrust you with the construction of the temple."

Hilgna raised the corner of his mouth, but did not reply, just took Ozyman Diaz to his room in the construction site

"Hill, the slaves and guards started arguing again just now, and I have already calmed them down, but if we want to solve it completely, I'm afraid I have to ask you to go—"

Arash stepped directly into the door at this time, and just had a face-to-face meeting with Osman Diaz.

This can be said to be the first meeting between Osman Diaz and Arash in a real sense. Arash immediately put down or lifted his step, and also noticed that the golden-eyed pharaoh was looking sharply at him. own line of sight.

Probably because Osman Diaz heard the voice of Arash calling Hilgna so familiarly and intimately.

The golden-eyed Pharaoh looked carefully at the black-haired man in front of him. His exposed upper body showed a very beautiful curve of texture. Just looking at the undulating lines, one can imagine the explosive power contained in it. .

And he didn't even make a sound when he walked, and Osman Diaz didn't realize that someone had come in until he made a sound.

What is it that a person with such skill approaches Hilgna?

"Who is this person? It doesn't look like Yu Yu... a citizen of Egypt."

Osman Diaz turned to look at his friend and asked in a deep voice.

"His name is Arash, and he is the servant I recruited recently. He is loyal to me and has helped me a lot."

Osman Diaz nodded respectfully to Arash, and said slowly and majesticly: "Protect Hill well, and I will reward you if you do well."

Arash scratched his hair, smiled and said, "I will protect Hill well, even if it takes my life."

The eyes of Arash and Osman Diaz met. The great hero of Persia looked calm, while Osman Diaz's eyes were full of scrutiny.

The pharaoh's sharp intuition told him that this warrior named Arash needs to pay attention. Arash must be a seasoned veteran, but he is Hilgna's attendant, and the pharaoh can only find opportunities to let his friends guard against him. Betrayal.

"I'll go take a look with you later." Osman Diaz came out this time for a private visit to meet Hilgna, and to check the progress of the temple. Hearing that there was a riot just now, he naturally wanted Went with Hilgna.

"Okay." Hilgna nodded towards Arash, indicating that he should not appear in front of Osman Diaz for the time being, so as not to be noticed by the keen pharaoh that this Arash in front of him was actually what he had excitedly told Hilgna about However, I also want to have such a heroic warrior, the great Persian hero 'Arash'.

The place where the quarrel took place was on the bank of the rushing Nile, and it was already crowded with people from a distance. The slaves and the guards were vaguely divided into two sides, and they were facing each other.

When Hilgna appeared with the soldiers, people from both parties turned their attention to Hilgna.

Every time the son of Hittite took a step, slaves knelt down and shouted his name loudly, letting this benevolent and cunning saint decide for them.

The guard also thought he was innocent, and called out Hilgner's name loudly, trying to make this wise and mighty lord distinguish between good and evil, loyalty and traitor.

The fuse of the incident was Hilgna's system. The rights of the guards were compressed, and they could not beat and scold the slaves as before. If a slave was found injured or died, he would have to be punished. It was extremely unsatisfactory. .

Although Hilgna may have promised rewards of gold and silver treasures and promotions, only the best people can get such rewards.

There are few outstanding people, so these guards are not as good as the guards before Hilgna came, so naturally they have quite a lot of complaints.
