472: C472 Abolition of Slavery

C472 Abolition of Slavery

Everyone began to hesitate. With their current situation, they didn't dare to make a careless decision before learning of the new method that Luo Jianjian had mentioned.

"We are both born and bred, if we were to continue with slavery, how can you be sure that one day, your descendants will not become slaves? I want to replace the system of slavery and the system of labour contracts. I want everyone to have human rights. "Humans are humans, they can no longer be sold as livestock!"

Luo Jianjian spoke forcefully, and the slave owners began to waver.

"Then tell me, what is the system of labor contract?"

Seeing that people were already interested, Luo Jianjian began to explain in detail the method of labor contract system. He had also promised that the slaves that had been sold, whether they were buyers or owners, would receive some compensation in exchange for the freedom of the slaves.

Luo Jianjian wanted all the slaves to return to the starting point, to be equal and free, and then to choose the life she wanted to live.

Deep in the night on the long street of the capital, it was a lively scene rarely seen in a hundred years.

Luo Jianjian explained all the questions tirelessly until the sun rose.

"I agree!"

"I agree as well!"

"I... I also agree! "

The slave owner thought that Luo Jianjian's method was better. Usually, if you sold a slave, you could only earn money once.

As for Luo Jianjian's method, as long as a person was willing to sign a labor contract, their time in each employer's home would be limited.

And for competent people, signed labor contracts are more expensive. In this way, there was room for negotiation, which was good for both sides.

Seeing that her hard work through the night had not been in vain, a smile appeared on Luo Jianjian's face.

"Alright, since everyone has agreed, I will immediately report it to the Emperor and begin to abolish slavery and open the system of labour services!"

Luo Jianjian said happily. It took the common folk of the capital one night to understand Luo Jianjian all over again. Some were grateful and some were apologetic, but all of a sudden, everyone shouted Luo Jianjian's name in unison!

"Luo Jianjian!" "Luo Jianjian!"

"Luo Jianjian!"

Luo Jianjian's thunderous shout reverberated through the long street. She suddenly became a god-like existence from Witch.

Last night, the capital's Long Street had been bustling with noise and excitement. It was impossible for this civil and military official to not know what had happened. This kind of public opinion was often the most direct thing. In the morning assembly, all the officials were silent and did not mention Luo Jianjian.

However, since they didn't mention it, Murong Yun would naturally mention it himself.

"Did all your beloved officials hear about what happened on Long Street in the capital last night?"

The officials looked at each other in dismay.

"Reporting to the Emperor, I heard about it."

"Any thoughts?"

"This …"

The civil and military officials were speechless. Murong Yun's mouth slightly curled up with a complacent look on his face. His wife had really helped him gain face. He was truly arrogant.

"We had already said before, when Luo Jianjian was at the Hailuan, she was able to solve the hundred years of difficulty in solving the ocean problems due to Hailuan. Such a woman was hard to come by in a thousand years. Being able to meet them is a blessing from Heaven. "

"Your Majesty is right …"

All the civil and military officials were as obedient as children who had been trained. Murong Yun was overjoyed, and conveniently brought up the matter of resigning.1

"Luo Jianjian is the daughter of the former Prime Minister Luo Fu Cheng. When the late Emperor was at the throne, Luo Fu Cheng made many contributions to the Heaven Awakening River. Regarding this, all of our beloved officials have no objections, right?"

After the emperor had said 'go with the flow' and 'push the boat with the flow', the other two groups of people who had always wanted to push their daughters to become empress could only lament.

Although Prime Minister Luo had abdicated, he still had some connections. Not to mention that now he was going to climb up to the royal family, so the ministers didn't dare to criticize him too harshly.

If he didn't look at them now, the emperor would probably think of a way to kick them out.

"This subject has no objection."

"That's great, now we have a match. As for Luo Jianjian, Luo Jianjian had been misunderstood by the people of the capital, and all her lieutenants were making things difficult for her, so I will not pursue this matter. But now, Luo Jianjian had secretly run away and solved the missing persons case that even the imperial court could not solve. She had even reformed the slavery system and gained the support of the people. Does my beloved ones feel that this Luo Jianjian is worthy of the Empress's phoenix coronet? "

"Ugh …" If the Emperor says he's worthy, then he's naturally worthy. "

The ministers replied helplessly, while the joy on Murong Yun's face grew even more.

"Good!" "Then, I shall now pass down the decree that I shall celebrate together with all the people on the day of the feudal feudal grand ceremony to be held after I have conferred with Luo Jianjian, the daughter of Luo Fu Cheng!"

"This subject congratulates Your Majesty!"

Murong Yun saw that all the officials kneeled down and did not dare to utter another word. The many days of metaphor were instantly in a good mood.

The Ministry of Rites had already started their preparations. The officials of the Ministry of Rites were all anxious as they calculated the auspicious day and the auspicious day. Esteemed Empress Dowager was also overjoyed. She personally ran around to celebrate Luo Jianjian's and the Emperor's selection ceremony.

After everything was settled, it was time to announce it to the world.

Murong Yun couldn't wait to announce this to the world as he hurriedly left the palace to find Luo Jianjian after dealing with the matters on hand.

However, at this moment, Luo Jianjian was not at the Luo Mansion. After her service system had been granted, she was not at ease with the conduct of those officials. She had to personally come to the Slave Market to do many things.

Those slaves were released from their cages, unshackled, and regained their freedom.

Those who are willing to return to their hometowns, put them back. Those who were willing to stay behind to sign a labor contract and continue to make money to support their families with their own hands stayed behind.

Luo Jianjian impatiently explained the changes to the slaves, and the dull gazes that they were used to seeing gradually became clear.

The silver that was used to compensate the slave owners was not from the treasury. It was from Su Liancheng's pocket. Su Liancheng and his rich dad didn't want to do it, but the moment this Lil 'White acted coquettishly, Su Liancheng agreed.

The Su family also wanted to take this opportunity to propose to the Emperor, wanting Su Liancheng to marry Xiao Bai. Su Liancheng's dad was also willing. If Su Liancheng were to marry a princess, they would no longer be considered rustic upstarts. Instead, they would become royalty.

When Murong Yun rushed over to Slave Market, the place had already started to change greatly. As Luo Jianjian busied herself with the crowd, her Association of 100 no longer needed to cover her face with that veil.

Luo Jianjian had done it. She wanted her Association of 100 to be upright and stand in front of the common people of the capital.

"Jianjian!"

Murong Yun called Luo Jianjian. Luo Jianjian turned around and looked at him with a joyful smile.

"Murong Yun, I did it. Look, I really did it!"

"Mm, I knew that there is nothing in this world that you can't do." Next, do you want to play as a queen? "
