Chapter 671 Prevention of Forced Labor Law
Last year, the Sabre Tooth Tribe had a serious internal strife. At that time, the tribe was in charge of finance, and the goblin legend Andrew Field, who was snipe and clam fighting, had all the mechanisms, but he didn't expect that the ship would capsize in the gutter. The troll's legendary fire warrior Basong, the red-breasted and the orcs' dark legendary warrior Chahada, Hellscream, joined forces to drive him out of the Sabre Tooth Tribe and killed the goblins in the tribe. Andrew Field was forced to flee to Stark and surrender to Dailin. Dailin then placed him in Fenghe City, the Silk Road Province, specifically responsible for the work of the Sabre Tooth Tribe. (For details, please see Chapter 537 "Falling from a Steel Wire")
Andrew was eager to take revenge, and after taking office, he had no requirements, just one word: confidentiality. His name and position must not appear in all government documents. Then he weaves a net secretly like a lurking spider...
On the Sabertooth Tribe, the conflict between the trolls and the orcs was originally profound and irreconcilable, but after dividing the property of the goblins, the benefits they got were enough for a while, so the trolls and orcs looked at each other and smiled and began to reconcile.
However, the seeds of hatred are still there. After being sent there to be ambassador, Ned has been sowing the hatred of the two families behind their backs and instigating the two chiefs to make themselves rich. While joining Andrew, bullying the trolls and orcs, they have not had good business acumen, and used legitimate business behaviors to spit out a lot of the wealth of the goblins that the two families have been annexed.
Originally, the two companies had enough food and grass in autumn and winter last year, and with the seeds of ice and snow staple food crops imported from the Principal of Stark, they could be planted and harvested a lot of food in winter. The two companies would not have any problems this winter.
But it can't stand Stark's side, so it's good to see the Sabertooth Tribe!
So Andrew took action.
Since the Principality of Stark developed the ice and snow-based staple food crop, not only Stark has gotten rid of the hat of shortage of food, but has also become a blessing for the tribes of the Nanlinfeng Plateau. In the past, the tribes on the Nanlinfeng Plateau would nomadicly nomadic on the vast land of the Nanlinfeng Plateau every autumn and winter, collecting a large amount of hay, and then finding a sheltered valley to survive the severe winter.
Although the cold winter of the Nanlinfeng Plateau is not as good as the desperate snowfield where Lingxiao City and Pansi Cave are located in the Silk Road Province, the winter is still biting cold. In previous years, in winter, large tribes would gather in the Mars Basin to spend the winter. But even so, many tribes who lack food and clothing have passed away every year. The cattle, horses, sheep and other free farming and other tribes will lose weight in large quantities, or be killed and eaten to help tribes survive the cold winter.
Since the Principality of Stark developed the ice-and-snow-based staple food crops, Stark also sold the seeds of these staple food crops to various tribes on the Nanlinfeng Plateau at a price not particularly expensive. While saving their lives, it also aggravates the dependence of each tribe on itself. These crops are all triploids that cannot effectively generate seeds, and each tribe can only spend money to purchase seeds from the Principality of Stark every year.
Of course, Dailin did not bid particularly high considering the economic conditions of various countries, probably to make the tribes hurt every year, but not to be unable to afford it. Of course, because Andrew Field, the legendary goblin businessman of the Sabertooth Tribe at that time, was the only official designated window for the tribes and the Principality of Stark on the Nanlinfeng Plateau, and Andrew made a lot of money in it, which is another topic.
However, things changed drastically last year. The Sabre Tooth Tribe was infighting, and Andrew and his goblins were driven out of the Sabre Tooth Tribe and defected to the Principality of Stark. In this way, the so-called "official designated window" was gone.
Dailin later authorized Andrew to go to Fenghe City to manage the trade issues of Stark and Nanlinfeng Plateau, and gave Andrew a very high privilege of autonomy, so Andrew played a trick:
Before the arrival of autumn, Andrew made a significant increase in the price of buying livestock meat from the Nanlinfeng Plateau on the pretext of weak domestic production capacity and increasing demand for meat. For a time, the highest price reached 410% of the meat price in the same period last year!
Under such high prices, many tribes sold all the cattle, horses and sheep they raised to the Principality of Stark, making a lot of money.
In their opinion, it is a rare good thing. Stark acquires a lot of wealth from tribes through trade every year. It is rare to be forced to raise prices this year, so he cannot kill them well?
As for the food ration issue after winter, it can expand the planting area of ice and snow staple food crops! Use part of the premium price of buying meat to buy seeds of ice and snow staple food crops. The rest can be kept for the products from Stark Principality next year, which is beautiful even if you think about it!
The other tribes have left the minimum animal husbandry in case they don’t need it. However, the Sabertooth Tribe suddenly lost the goblin account room that they have always relied on. Both orcs and trolls are big and bad guys who only know how to fight. Because both sides hope to win the support of the Sabertooth Tribe’s centrist, they each bought a lot of useless devices that show their elegance with Ned’s recommendation.
The two chiefs wasted a lot of wealth that the goblins had saved hard by fighting for wealth. When they were a little uneasy, they heard Ned introduce this "good business" - when the two chiefs heard it, they both felt that this was a god-given opportunity! If it was well operated, the money wasted in summer and autumn this year might be able to directly recover through this cattle and sheep trade!
Who said that only goblins in the tribe can do business? My big troll (orc) has a very good business mindset!
Under the instigation of Ned and Andrew's spies through connections, the two chiefs were afraid that the other party would exchange more livestock than themselves and earned more cheaply, so they almost slaughtered all the livestocks in the tribe, except for cattle, studded, horses and sheep, or sent them directly to Fenghe City.
Then, with the consent of Prime Minister William, Andrew issued a "Orcs and Trolls Forced Labor Prevention Act."
The general meaning of this bill is to show that there are various signs that there are systemic discrimination against orcs and trolls in various tribes on the Nanlinfeng Plateau. Many orcs and trolls are forced to work, and their natural rights of beasts are seriously threatened. As a party with huge geopolitical interests and concerns in the Nanlinfeng Plateau, the Stark Principality has the responsibility and obligation to safeguard the rights of beasts and free life of the people of all ethnic groups on the Nanlinfeng Plateau. Therefore, it was decided that in the following months, the bulk trade involving the Nanlinfeng Plateau and the Stark Principality will be reviewed to ensure that these trades will not harm the rights of orcs and trolls in the local orcs. All major tribes are obliged to provide the necessary information to trade examiners from the Stark Principality.
