Chapter 1589: Granting Honor to Hebrews

“Did all of them abandon their identity of border residents voluntarily?” Zhang Tie widely opened his eyes at a stroke.

“The so-called border residents is just an appellation used by Taixia Country as the most powerful country of humans which represents our politeness to foreigners. Actually, especially in wars, these foreigners who come to Taixia Country would finally become the domestic slaves of major clans or slaves who’re used to exploit the wild. Their lives are actually in the hands of others. They’re far away from border residents!”

“Won’t they find trouble for that?”

“What trouble? Even if all of them died or were killed, do you think someone could speak for them?”

“Nobody cares about them?”

“They couldn’t even if they want!” Bai Runshan shook his head as he said, “If too many foreigners die, and the official agencies are involved in the investigation, major clans have many methods to deal with that, one of the simplest is to correct their identities. As long as they’re slaves employed by major clans, their death would arouse no trouble!”

“Slaves employed?”

“No slaves are allowed to exist in Taixia Country. However, slaves exist in subcontinents and other foreign countries. Therefore, superficially, these people are border residents; nevertheless, as long as major clans find some agencies or business groups to turn these people’s identities into slaves rent from foreign agencies or business groups, they would be able to shirk their responsibilities as long as they present a relevant agreement between them and foreign agencies or business groups to the criminal courts. Slaves don’t have human rights; even if they have, their human rights are in the hands of those foreign agencies or business groups. The relation between Taixia Country and the other countries in subcontinents are restricted to the Human Charter of Brightness . Nationally and legally, Taixia Country has no right to interfere with the internal affairs of the other countries. As long as the victims are not Hua people, as long as the slave owner doesn’t care about their death, Taixia Country won’t execute the law in foreign countries. Therefore, the officials are clear about the outcome facing those foreigners in Taixia Country…” Immortal Deyang sighed as he explained.

Since Zhang Tie came to Taixia Country, he had less contact with the Hebrews at the bottom of the society of Taixia Country. Unimaginably, there was also such a dark side in human trafficking in Taixia country. The so-called border residents were just a figleaf for the slave trade.

Perhaps this problem could not be solved at all. As long as classes existed, there would be the bottom class. It was said that human society had reached an unprecedented, advanced degree before the Catastrophe. At that time, all the human countries declared that they had eliminated slaves; however, in some dark corners, there were still a large number of slaves, who became the toys of the rich.

Zhang Tie thought inside, ‘Now that this class of slave exists, why not tear off the figleaf of border residents and expose it to the public? Additionally, improve laws to guarantee the basic human rights of these people, leaving no loophole to others. In addition, provide ascending tunnels for them to get rid of the identity of a slave. In this way, the foreigners would live better; at least, they would not be killed for free like now.’

“Although the domestic slaves of Lord Guangnan’s Mansion are like slaves, they would not meet those damn things. As for Lord Guangnan’s Mansion, it’s not worthwhile for us to be blamed for being brutal and fierce!” Bai Runshan threw a glance at Zhang Tie before explaining, “Most of these people in subcontinents and other continents were living under the strict rule of lords and fake nobles. They would risk their lives every day and always become homeless. Those rulers wanted to exploit them while not guaranteeing their safety and tranquil life. As a result, they escaped to Taixia Country and came to the territory of Lord Guangnan’s Mansion. Many people even live better than that in subcontinents and other continents. They could also have houses, wives and children here. Additionally, Lord Guangnan is a real heir of Lord and a real human noble. They treat Lord Guangnan as their owner; they serve Lord Guangnan’s Mansion and follow all the orders of Lord Guangnan’s Mansion. Meanwhile, Lord Guangnan’s Mansion guarantees their safety in case they feel homeless. Many of them even feel happy and proud of being a domestic slave of Lord Guangnan’s Mansion. You could ask them, even if you promise them freedom, who among them would like to leave South Border and live alone outside?”

Zhang Tie threw another glance at those domestic slaves as he found those people’s eye light didn’t contain pure fear; instead, it’s full of awe while being meticulous with a bit humble hope.

Watching the slightly hopeful eyes, Zhang Tie let out a sigh inside.

“I am Zhang Tie, known as Immortal Qianji, the husband of the princess of Lord Guangnan’s Mansion, the guerrilla general of Taixia Country and the founder of Iron-Dragon Sect in Youzhou Province, Taixia Country…” Zhang Tie turned around as he introduced himself to those craftsmen. Hearing Zhang Tie’s introduction, the craftsmen became a bit boisterous while many people goggled at Zhang Tie. Zhang Tie was too famous; especially Zhang Tie’s fiery oil had deepened into the lives of commoners. Therefore, many craftsmen had heard about him. “This is my castle. This castle would serve as the place for knights who feel like cultivating and resting here. After leaving here, those knights would grow stronger. In the future, many of those powerful knights would become the human vanguards against demons or safeguard more humans. They would be the most important power of humans. Therefore, to a certain degree, the castle that you’ve completed is as important as those battle fortresses facing demons. Even more than that! What you have done here definitely donates to humans in the holy war. Thank you!”

After finishing his words, Zhang Tie pointed at three smooth stone walls around the square as he continued, “You should leave here today. You could leave your names on the walls before you leave. Your names would accompany this castle forever. Later on, each knight who comes here would see who have participated in constructing this castle on the top of this mountain!”
