World of Warcraft: When Alliance and Horde Characters Swap Roles
Chapter 85 Hard workers are not slaves
In the center of Grobler Castle, on the notice board at the door of the meeting hall, Nergo posted on it the obligations and rights of all orc citizens, as well as the obligations and rights of him, the king and his officials.
There are five notice boards like this in Grobler Castle, one at each of the four gates and the door of the council chamber.
Apart from these, all that remains is the new decree that Nergo is preparing to issue.
He wanted to establish a statutory law for Groblerburg.
night.
Nergo summoned all the soldiers and people in the city, including the peons and surrendered Sabertooths, as well as a few Draenei passers-by.
Under the light of the bonfire, even the night looks so bright.
Nergo stood on the high platform and moved a stool to sit down. The same was true for the orcs below. Some people sat on the animal skin blankets they brought, and some people grabbed the few stools. As for the rest, they were either standing or sitting. Is sitting on the floor.
"Okay, everyone, listen to what I have to say." Nergo did not act like a British civil servant in the Prime Minister's office, making people guess when he spoke. He was very straightforward.
"I believe many people already know it. The purpose of calling everyone here today is to discuss a law for our city. We will discuss any law you think should exist here. If everyone agrees, then this law I’ll put it in the book.”
Nergo looked at the peon sitting at the front and said: "For example, you, Luke, if you have any opinions on the peon's working hours and salary, you can also raise it. For example, you hope that the peon's maximum working hours should not exceed a few hours a day. Hours, and additional time will need to be paid, and then everyone will discuss it together. If it is successfully passed, it will be a violation of the law if there is any forced labor, and I will send someone to arrest him."
Luke looked confused. Is this my business?
Before this, the orcs generally adopted the judgment habits of chiefs and elders, that is, whatever was done before, they would do now.
And now that Nergo wanted to make it legal, he came here just to join in the fun. He never thought that this new law would involve hard labor.
"Can I participate too?" Luke asked in disbelief.
"Of course, it's not just you, businessmen, herdsmen, farmers and soldiers all have the opportunity to participate."
Nergo said loudly: "Similarly, the rule of this discussion is voting. When any law is selected, everyone will vote by a show of hands. The minority obeys the majority. Once it is passed, it cannot be violated, otherwise you will be punished."
"As for the severity of the punishment, you decide. If everyone agrees, then it will be recorded in the law."
Nergo has never been in contact with the law, and he doesn’t understand it, but he thinks it should exist, so he gives the rights to everyone. As long as everyone agrees, then that’s it.
Nergo's voice was full of energy, and the people below were naturally enthusiastic. Nergo had been promoting it for less than half a month and preparing for less than half a month. Everyone knew that this law would affect their family's life in the future. Even Gromashr and Havalor have many shamans coming to join in the fun.
Grommash even sent Wolf Cavalry as an envoy. According to his words, "If it's easy to use, then I will use it too."
"Status!" Luke summoned up the courage to speak loudly. "Although I am a second-level peon, many people still discriminate against me and think that we peons are slaves. What I want to say is that we are not slaves, we are also orcs. Even though we won’t fight, we haven’t wasted the clan’s resources! I hope everyone can treat the peons equally.”
As soon as these words came out, it could be said that there was a lot of discussion and it was like an explosion. Some people supported his words, most of them were Delaney, while others insulted him with contempt and anger, thinking that he was simply whimsical.
"You pigs deserve status?"
"Bah! A hard worker is no better than a slave!"
All kinds of insults made Luke blush. He was a little ashamed. How did he say those words? He's just a peon.
Just when he wanted to sit down and find a chance to slip away.
"It makes sense." Nergo nodded, and the crowd fell silent instantly. They were in disbelief, but did not make a sound, waiting for Nergo to express his thoughts.
Luke's words made him realize an issue, that is, the status of hard workers.
Although the slaves of the orcs are not the kind of slaves that Varian had during his amnesia, it is true that their status is not high. Many orcs discriminate against these workers who are of no use and can only exchange simple labor for the protection of the clan.
"The peons are indeed not slaves, they are workers. Although they are not suitable for fighting and are not good at non-construction work, many of the things we enjoy are thanks to them, whether it is the caves we live in or the arrow tower walls for defense. They are indispensable. They are pitiful. They are not able to fight with their lives like us. They can only work in the wind and sand, but they are looked down upon. Is this reasonable? "
"I object!" said a strong man dressed like a soldier: "Every one of us, even women, can fight with their lives, why can't they? It's not that they don't work hard. If they work hard, how can they do hard work? It is normal for such people to discriminate against him."
Nergo shook his head, "I don't deny that some hard workers are lazy and lazy, but if you want to ask why hard workers can't go to the battlefield, then I want to ask you. You can look at yourself and then look at him. He is like a wild beast. You are so Tall, like a cleft-hoofed bull, they are born warriors. What about them? I’m afraid even the Tabu sheep are stronger than him, and they are powerless even if they want to go to the battlefield, right?"
Nergo added: "For example, you, who are tall, have always had meat and wine since you were young. When you are exhausted during training, you just need to rest for a while. What about them? You have been thin since you were a child. How can you be like this?" Compare?"
"You, including me, are born with good fortunes and are tall enough to have the opportunity to go to the battlefield and fight with blood. But how can they go to the battlefield like this? It's not that they don't work hard, it's just that their lives are not good."
After Nergo finished speaking, most of the people below were a little silent. They also knew that most of these peons were deformed, just like they were to the ogres. The peons were not born to be submissive, easy to eat, and lazy. The same blood flows in their bodies, but they are born that way. What can you do?
Nergo said a lot more, and the audience also listened a lot.
Nergo pointed at the soldier who had just spoken and said: "You are a warrior, tall and willing to fight with blood. This is your honor."
Then he pointed at Luke and said: "You are a hard worker. You are born to be thin and can't work hard. Then go build a building with your sweat. How is this not an honor? If being a builder is a shame, then when you and I build a military camp together, aren't we doing it for ourselves?" Where's the humiliation?"
Finally Nergo said: "Raise your hands if you agree to ban the discrimination against peons!"
