"Yes, Elder Monion is right. Even if the owner of the workshop disappears, the workshop can continue. But what I want to say is not just a sudden disappearance, but the craftsmen of the workshop completely taking over the workshop. , can the workshop continue to exist?”

“How do craftsmen take over a workshop?”

"You can buy it with your past savings, you can buy it by borrowing money from several elders and agreeing to return it later, or you can directly kill the original owner violently. In short, they have the workshop in their hands."

"It shouldn't be able to continue to exist, right? How can a group of craftsmen own a workshop without the original owner as a backer? They will soon be annexed by other workshops."

“What if legislation prohibits all kinds of unfair competition?”

"Is this possible? Aren't the laws made by those high-ranking families? Wouldn't they designate laws that are unfavorable to themselves?"

"Several elders, I am talking about Everriska now, but not only Everriska. It is just a hypothesis for the time being. Do you understand the hypothesis?"

"I understand that if the law is indeed effective, the workshop taken over by the craftsmen should be able to maintain it, but it may take a certain amount of time to expand the scale later."

"Very well, let's get back to what we were talking about before. What's the point of the existence of the so-called original owner of the workshop? Is it only useful for increasing investment? Can't the craftsmen borrow the same funds from several elders after taking over the agreement? Returning it to increase investment? Since it is useless, does his previous acquisition completely rob the value created by the craftsmen? "

"It seems so!"

The eyes of several elders shone brightly, and they seemed to have discovered a big secret that had been hidden for a long time in the elf society. But this way, they became more confused, "Then how did they plunder without the craftsmen noticing?"

"The elders should be able to figure this out. You just said that if they lose their original owner and their backer, they will be suppressed. This is actually the key to plundering, but it is just a manifestation.

“If we think about it carefully, it’s easy to see that all those predators are unnecessary and that a society can function normally without them.”

“Is it possible for a society to function properly without predators?!”

This conclusion really shocked several elders. Their long-term knowledge told them that although the upper-level families had many bad things, they were indeed the ones protecting the countless low-level elves.

No.

The low-level elves have never needed their protection. The low-level elves have always been just accessories and victims of the ambitions of the upper-level elves.

The youngest among the several elders has lived for at least nearly a thousand years, and some have been displaced for most of their lives due to war. Most of them are from the lower class and have always been conservative in prejudice and discrimination. They can better represent the lower class perspective that Xia Duo deliberately created.

In the past, they were always confused. Although they understood that the Highborne were not good things, they always understood what was so bad about them too superficially. Occasionally, they were even moved by the kindness of individual Highborne, and even had the desire to commit suicide.

But now, they fully understand that those so-called upper elves, everything they have is based on plundering the bottom.

Without them, the underlying elves would not perish, but would only live a better life!

Such a dark and terrifying truth once plunged several elders into despair, not only for the demon descendants, who themselves were victims of war who suffered from prejudice, discrimination and even persecution, but also for the countless low-level elves who were exploited and plundered.

You can imagine how hopeless it feels when the whole world is against you.

But when they were most desperate, they saw the leader who always looked calm. At this moment, they seemed to see light and hope to change everything.

But when they asked the question that made them almost desperate, Xia Duo just asked an extremely cold question in a calm tone:

"Are you unwilling to be unable to become the High Elves, or do you really want to contribute to the liberation of the lower classes?"

Are you unwilling to be unable to become an upper class elf, or do you really want to liberate the lower class?

Faced with such a question that tortured their hearts, several elders had different expressions on their faces, but without exception they all fell into silence. After an unknown amount of time, Solmant took the lead to break the deadlock:

"I admit that I used to fantasize about becoming an upper elf, but after listening to the leader's analysis of the nature of the upper elf, I now only hate and disgust the upper elf. The Red Heart tribe cannot have the existence of an upper elf!"

"I also think that the Red Heart Tribe does not need high-level elves!"

"It's not enough for us to think this way. We can control ourselves from falling. That's only now. What about the future? What about other rulers in the future?"

"Actually, the leader has already prepared for these problems!"

Maosh, who had the most contact with Sha Duo, suddenly exclaimed, his wise eyes seeming to penetrate time, "I didn't understand before why the leader must formulate written laws, and why all people must learn the law, just to make everyone Everyone knows the law and abides by it, and the most important thing is to supervise the administration!”

"I also thought about it, and there is also a change of government. Although a hundred years is a long time, at least it will not form a near-eternal upper-level family rule like the traditional elf society in the past."

"Also, there is the supervision system. I have never figured out what the ruling parliament and its subordinate administrative teams can supervise. Now it seems that this is the most powerful support to ensure that the governance does not change in the future."

"That's not all! The popularization of magic is the most striking feature that distinguishes us from traditional societies such as Everescana. Only by popularizing magic can the people truly control their own destiny."

Several elders talked to each other and analyzed all the plans that Xia Duo had made over the past year. They came to the conclusion that the leader had understood the truth of elf society very early and had implemented it in practice.

At this time, Sivart, who had previously opposed Xia Duo's welfare benefits for newborns, no longer objected. At this time, he not only realized that children are the hope of the future, but also understood the significance of the ruling parliament's investment in the future.

It is definitely not like those high-ranking families who leave purely for wealth gains, but more like the rapid development of the big family of the Chixin Tribe, and there is no need to overdraw the future appropriately.

As long as the expectations for the future are positive, and even more can be overdrawn, are the expectations for the future positive? Siwatt has never been more confident about the future than now!

To explain it in terms of the field he is in charge of, that is - a large amount of social resources in traditional elven society have been plundered by the upper elves. They may invest some in development in order to maintain their rule, but it is absolutely impossible to use it like the Red Heart Tribe. Most of the proceeds from creation and production are invested in development and improving people's livelihood.

At this moment, he finally understood why the leader always expressed difficulty in everything, yet he was still confident about the future!

He finally understood why the new home was developing so fast. The leader was not satisfied yet and had to speed up and speed up. Such a future was really exciting, and now he wanted to speed up too!
