Chapter 409: The Red Flame Has Ignited the Heart
"The elven gods have already promised......"
It should have been a joyous thing, but the goddess of fortune was in an unusually heavy mood.
She knows very well what she is doing now, what she will do in the future, breaking 'common sense' is often a price, slavery is now deeply rooted in the world of Assatom, originally she thought it was a 'strong arm', but after the maid's 'puzzle', she understood that this is a 'cancer'!
The failure of the productive forces of the Assatom world to develop is due to the 'slavery system'.
The relations of production of slavery were adapted to the previous era and to the level of development of the social productive forces at that time, but now, slavery has completely turned into a barbaric and brutal system of exploitation and oppression, which has played a very serious role in hindering the development of the productive forces.
The aristocracy was able to exploit the commoners who were not their slaves, and the money they earned was used to squander, without the slightest idea of developing the productive forces.
Such aristocrats are stupid and a kind of cancer in the world of Assatom!
Perhaps the former goddess of wealth would defend them, but after seeing the novel production method in the Grim Wind Realm, and learning that the Ogordon Empire also had a similar production method, her impression of the nobility completely fell to the bottom.
Because as far as she knows, the reason why the productivity of the Ogordon Empire has developed is also because of Caesar XIII taking the lead, and if it were not for the hard-line emperor, the Ogordon Empire would still be the same as before!
The maid had mentioned to her that in other worlds, because there were no supernatural powers, they could only study external objects, and although their personal power was not so strong, they were able to feed the hard-working people - something that most of the people at the bottom of the Assatom world could not imagine, and even Latinia herself was a little unbelievable when she first heard about it.
The world of Assatom obviously has extraordinary power, but the productivity is still so low, nobility is a problem, slavery is also a problem!
For the aristocracy was accustomed to having more slaves if they wanted to produce more, to have more money or to wage war, and to exploit slaves and commoners if they wanted more money, and to spend part of the money they had to buy slaves and squander.
Because the aristocracy had the money to hire professionals to protect themselves, and sometimes they were professionals themselves, people could not overthrow their rule, because their bad habits had infiltrated the system, and their successors would eventually become like them.
This creates a vicious circle, and without external interference, the world of Assatom would probably always be like this.
But an external force has now appeared, and this 'external force' can be the Sad Wind Leader or the Ogordon Empire, both sides have taken the first step in change, and the swords of the rulers of both sides have been directed towards the 'aristocracy'!
O'Gordon's emperor was more subtle, not as blatant as the maid, but there was no doubt that he was about to begin to make adjustments to the aristocracy.
The two sides have some things in common, but one difference is that the Emperor of O'Gordon has no intention of putting a brake on slaves, and even from some indications, it seems that the O'Gordon Empire is ready to use slaves in factory production.
With the inner sea as the dividing line, the continent of Slo Mendes is divided into two diametrically opposed halves, just like geography.
With the current productive forces of the sad wind, there will not be much change if slavery is abolished, but if it is other places in the Mendes continent, it is simply wishful thinking to let them abolish slavery, and ordinary people will not daydream about it.
How could the aristocratic lords abolish slavery if they hadn't made enough money? How could they make money without slaves? How could they enjoy it? Who would serve them? Should they still pay those who were supposed to be slaves?
"Yes, that's good......," the maid smiled, and continued to write.
Latinia sighed, she didn't have the knowledge of a maid, so she was not as adamant about the abolition of slavery as a maid, and the abolition of slavery would involve the interests of many people, the first of which were the nobles.
Although she doesn't deal much with the noble goddesses, the power of the world is not to be underestimated, with a sad wind leader, the Church of Wealth, and the elven race, she wants to fight against the worldliness of the entire Slo Mendes continent?
Latinia thinks she is not so kind, she is a deity, she is responsible for her Church, her will represents the actions of the Church, and once she makes a decision, those who believe in her priesthood will do it at the cost of their lives.
Was it worth it for her to 'abolish slavery'......
"I know what you're thinking, you're a deity and you need to be responsible for your church......"
The maid's voice rang in her ears, and Latinia looked over in a daze to see that she hadn't even lifted her head.
"In particular, you are still the 'goddess of wealth and trade', and if you really want to fight against the abolition of slavery, you will undoubtedly receive a big shock, some slave traders are your followers, and some merchants have a lot of slaves in their hands, and they will make the slaves work for them - if nothing else, many of the miners are slaves, aren't they?"
"If you are really on my side, then the loss of many believers is predictable. If you really don't want to do it, you can not do it, I understand you!"
The maid put down the pen, picked up the paper, and blew on the ink that had not dried, "Because, if you want to start a change, people who are not strong will will not be able to persevere, many people will think that you are wrong, you are crazy, if you do not think that you are always right, then your will will also be shaken over time, and in the end, maybe even you yourself will think that you have done wrong!"
Holding the paper, the maid looked at the Goddess of Fortune, "Lady Fortune, Latinia, tell me, what is your choice?"
Unsurprisingly, the goddess of wealth fell silent.
She looked at the maid's smiling eyes, and just now the maid mentioned her identity, 'Lady Fortune' - as a deity, she is responsible for her church, and she is responsible for her followers!
But......
As well as being a deity, she is also 'Latinia'!
Now that she already knows that 'slavery' is 'wrong' for the world and hinders the development of social productive forces, how can she pretend to be deaf and dumb?
As a 'god of order', does she really just need to maintain order?
How many times has the order of the world of Assatom changed throughout the ages, and in the distant past, the priesthood of 'commerce' did not exist, but later, with the development of the times, the priesthood of 'commerce' also appeared.
As a deity, does she have to maintain order, and not be a promoter of social development and order?
She can!
"If I always think I'm right, I think I'm confident ......"
Latinia took a deep breath, "I'm the goddess of wealth, yes, my words and deeds will affect the entire Wealth Church, if I do that, there will be a lot of faith lost, I know very well!
"If society has not been developed, people cannot overthrow the rule of the aristocracy, and the class will not change, then those nobles who are greedy for pleasure will become more and more excessive, and the world will become more violent, and when the portal of the bottomless abyss opens in the world of Assatom, it will be too late to save the world!"
"It's just 'paranoia' and 'stubbornness'!" Latinia smiled, "I believe I can do it-"
"Definitely!"
