Chapter 309 Zhou Qing's Dream
"So, what should we do next? Will we let Darles get into an accident while we are on our way to destroy the 'Fallen'?"
Youhui asked about the next steps.
"He cannot afford to encounter any accidents while destroying the 'Fallen'."
Zhou Qing denied it. "I want revenge, which is not difficult. He is just a Soul Master. His fighting ability is just that little. It is not worth mentioning. But I said that I want to do an experiment."
"What kind of experiment is this?" Romantina was curious.
“I want to change the world.”
For the first time, Zhou Qing described his true thoughts to everyone, "Perhaps, the territory currently owned by humans was opened up by the ancestors of today's nobles and sects, but this should not be a reason for others to be oppressed from generation to generation!"
"I'm from Shenghun Village, the son of a farmer. Shenghun Village, including my deceased parents, has been farming for generations!"
"How many years? How many generations?"
"I don't know, but it must have taken a long time. They cultivated the land with their own hands. No one knows how to take care of the land better than them! The nobles didn't spend any effort on such things!"
"I'm not against the nobility, I just hate the privileges they have. I think their ancestors created a living space for humans, not for their descendants to oppress the weaker commoners for generations, right? Don't the commoners have any merits?"
"Indeed, they are weak and cannot explore the Soul Beast Forest or fight, but they are also contributing their value, paying taxes and grain. In fact, if it weren't for their contribution, would the dignitaries of Tiandou and Xingluo be able to live a life of luxury?"
"For example, in Falling Star City, there are more than 20,000 people, and Darles asked each of them to pay 1,000 gold soul coins, which is 20 million gold soul coins!"
Twenty million gold soul coins!
How much of it was used for the living expenses of the powerful?
unknown.
Even Romantina and Youhui, two girls of noble birth, were so surprised by this number that their faces turned pale.
“So, I want to change the world!”
Zhou Qing's tone gradually became firm, "Civilians cannot be oppressed anymore, but how can they resist without power?"
"Unity."
Tang San thought without hesitation, "Except for the Titled Douluo who are too powerful, spirit masters of other realms can be killed by numbers, but——"
Tang San shook his head secretly again.
Unity?
It is easy to say but difficult to do.
It's easy for two people to unite.
It is not difficult for seven people to unite.
But when the number of people reaches more than ten, the difficulty tends to increase exponentially.
Everyone has a different background, experience, and naturally different ideas. How can we all be united?
Only discipline!
This is why military regulations are the most important in the military.
But even so, when the two armies fought, each with hundreds of thousands of troops, but one side's casualties reached more than two thousand, there was a possibility that some of the remaining soldiers would mutiny.
In the past, in every dynasty, the various disciplines and rules in the military were mainly intended to prevent such things from happening...
He originally thought that Brother Qing had the ambition to become king, but he didn't expect that he actually wanted to unite the common people?
How difficult it is! Tang San does not deny the simplicity and kindness of civilians and farmers, but he can also see their shortsightedness and meanness. It is impossible to achieve anything by relying on them——
In previous dynasties, there were many uprisings by farmers, but none of them succeeded. Even in the Ming Dynasty where he lived, the founding emperor Zhu Yuanzhang, although his ancestors had been farmers for generations, was able to succeed, and in the end he did not rely solely on the common people... After the establishment of the Ming Dynasty, there were countless cases of farmers rising up in rebellion.
therefore--
“I don’t think it will work.”
“So, I’m going to do an experiment.”
Zhou Qing didn't care. "Let's see if the people in a small city like Luoxing City have blood in their hearts. If so, do they want to be forced to hold it in? Or do they want to vent it? The variable I want to add to the experiment I want to do is to poke a hole in the membrane that wraps the blood in their hearts."
However, what Zhou Qing wanted to do was not to arouse the anger in the hearts of the people of Luoxing City, but to see if they had the courage to say "no" to the powerful.
This is the most important point!
After all, there is a group of soul masters in Douluo Continent who are very powerful, and people in the world are in awe of them.
If this fear is so deep-rooted that they dare not feel any resentment even when they are oppressed in every way, then -
He has to work harder.
"Youyou, if this thing succeeds, can you temporarily take charge of the overall situation of Luoxing City?" Zhou Qing looked at Youhui.
No matter what, Dales is also the mayor of Falling Star City. With such an official position, if he is really overwhelmed by the anger of the people in Falling Star City, maybe the top leaders of the Star Luo Empire will choose to kill the chicken to scare the monkeys... The possibility is extremely small, but it is not impossible, and the Spirit Hall cannot interfere in the internal affairs of the Star Luo Empire.
Therefore, in order to avoid this situation, it is necessary for other nobles in Luoxing City to step forward in advance to take charge of the situation and stabilize the situation of the people in the city.
Zhou Qing did not trust other nobles and families in Luoxing City. Although Youhui was a little introverted and cowardly, she was still tenacious in her bones. Otherwise, she would not have continued to study the theory of cultivating soul power after graduation in the hope of helping Romantina.
In Zhou Qing's opinion, as long as she gets in touch with more different people and things, she will definitely become mature and stable.
"Ah I?"
As expected, Youhui suddenly became nervous, and even her voice began to tremble. "No! I can't do it! I can't even speak loudly in front of other people!"
"I believe in you, Youhui!" Romantina pulled Youhui into her arms and soothed her nervous heart. "You are very delicate and you will definitely be able to control the situation from now on!"
"Then... let me try it?" Youhui blushed, broke free from Romantina's arms, and said cautiously.
"Don't worry, you can definitely do it!"
Zhou Qing gave a thumbs up and encouraged, "You are so delicate in character, you will definitely be able to manage Falling Star City in an orderly manner."
Tang San said: "Perhaps we can ask Qing Zhuzhu for help. She seems to have some status in the upper echelons of the Xing Luo Empire?"
"She's only six years old. She can't be of much help."
Zhou Qing rolled his eyes.
Moreover, not to mention the time it would take to send the letter, he didn't even know where Qingzhu Zhu's home was, so how could he send the letter?
It's not enough to just know about Xingluo City.
"So, next, let's go to the Wuhun Branch Hall."
"The head of the Wuhun branch hall in Luoxing City, old man Norman, is at odds with Darles. If we ask him to support Youhui at that time, the possibility of suppressing the voices of other nobles and families in the city will be greater."
Youhui was surprised and asked, “Is Grandpa Norman so important?”
"Don't underestimate the Spirit Hall. Although it doesn't interfere in the internal affairs of the two imperial cities, its reputation among civilians and civilian spirit masters far exceeds those of the big and small sects and families, especially in small cities like this." Zhou Qing said, and then asked, "You call Norman grandpa, do you have a good relationship with him?"
"Well, he is my great uncle." Youhui felt a little embarrassed.
