    ?

    The next day, early morning.

    Early in the morning, Du Qi got up early to wash up, and went to the study after breakfast.  Today he is going to meet with the principals of the major families in Yiwu City. Du Qi must have a clear mind when it comes to matters related to Kun Da, so he must sort out his mind clearly.

    time flies.

    In a blink of an eye, it was time to arrive.

    Many big family principals have already arrived at the mansion and are in the living room.  But Du Qi was not in a hurry, after all, everyone was not present.  When it was less than half a quarter of an hour away from Si time, Liu Jian entered the study.

    Liu Jian reported: "Your Highness, except for Bard who did not come, all the major families have arrived. Because Governor Luo, General Tamur, General Wuna Shili, Yi Canjun and Yuan Canjun are busy, there are many things to do.  Deal with it, they arranged for people from the family to come."

    Du Qi nodded and said, "No problem!"

    Luo Yansheng, Tamerlane and others are all big families in Yiwu City, and they are all quite powerful.

    There are many slaves.

    After all, it is quite normal that there are slaves in the Western Regions.  In fact, the situation in the Western Regions is even better. The place with the most slaves is in Tubo and other places. In these uncivilized places, there are many slaves, many slave owners, and there are countless big families with slaves.

    Du Qi did not expect that Bud was so courageous that he dared to refuse today's banquet.  But this is a good thing. If Bud doesn't come, let Bud know the consequences of not coming.

    "Let's go, go to the lobby."

    Du Qi gave an order and went to the hall.

    In the hall.

    Overcrowded.

    There are nearly 20 people, after all, there are many families of slave owners in such a huge city of Yiwu.  So as long as there is a small scale, it is invited.

    As soon as Du Qi appeared, everyone immediately stood up and saluted.  They all respect Du Qi very much.  After all, the former Yiwu City has been renamed Yizhou, and the entire Yizhou is already under Du Qi's control.

    Du Qi looked around, waved his hands and said, "Everyone, take your seats, don't be restrained."

    "Thank you, Your Highness."

    Thank you all in unison.

    After Du Qi walked to the main seat and took his seat, he looked around and said, "You are all big families in Yizhou, and they are quite influential in Yizhou. Yesterday, the king asked you to invite you to a banquet. The first meaning is that I hope to see you.  Seeing you all. After all, I have arrived in Yizhou, but I don¡¯t know you, which is a bit inappropriate.¡±

    When everyone heard this, they cheered up.

    Because Du Qi's words came first.

    This is the first meaning.

    Doesn't it have a second meaning, and a third meaning

    What exactly is Du Qi going to do?

    Everyone was a little curious in their hearts, but most of them still had a little bit of worry.  After Du Qi arrived in Yizhou, he had to follow Du Qi's rules in Yizhou.  Under such a situation, everyone was worried, afraid that Du Qi would attack them drastically.

    With a smile on his face, Du Qi said again: "Everyone, my second meaning is that I have something to discuss with you. After all, the most important thing to do is you."

    Among the crowd, Luo Yansheng's representative was named Luo Song.

    This person is Luo Yansheng's eldest son. He has just turned 30 at this age, and he has already started to take care of Luo's family.  Under this premise, Luo Song is enough to represent the Luo family.

    When Luo Song faced Du Qi, he had nothing to fear. After all, his father was the governor of Yizhou, and he was quite close to Du Qi, so Luo Song took the initiative to ask: "Dare to ask Your Highness, what are you going to discuss?"

    Du Qi smiled and said: "The matter that this king wants to discuss with you is about slaves. This king plans to abolish slaves in Yizhou. The slaves of all major families must be released unconditionally."

    "ah!"

    One by one exclaimed.

    The shocking voices one after another continued to echo in the hall, and everyone's expressions changed drastically.

    Even Luo Song was surprised.

    Du Qi's arrangement is really too bold.  Even such an arrangement is tantamount to shaking the interests of all big families.  The slaves of the major families are extremely large, which is the foundation of each family.

    Without slaves, there are no people.

    Without people, many things cannot be done.

    Du Qi saw the changes in everyone's expressions.  There was a faint smile on the corner of his mouth, and he was not in any hurry, and this scene was originally expected.

    Slavery is one of the foundations of the Western Regions.  To put it bluntly, Du Qi is going to abolish it now.Being a slave is tantamount to committing suicide, cutting off one's own roots.

    Even if slavery is to be abolished, it is not now.

    needs time.

    If such a slavery system is to be abolished, it cannot be completed without a certain amount of time.  And to achieve this goal, there must be sufficient grasp.

    Only in this way can arrangements be made.

    Du Qi watched everyone shouting in shock and whispering to each other, but he didn't speak to stop him, nor did he stop drinking, he just watched quietly.

    After a long while, everyone stopped talking.

    A pair of eyes fell on Luo Song again. After all, Luo Song is Luo Yansheng's son, representing the Luo family, and the Luo family is the largest family.  If the Luo family is willing to admit it, it will be difficult for them to deal with it.

    The key now is to see how Luo Song expresses his position.

    Luo Song took a deep breath, suppressed the shock in his heart, and thought quickly.  He suddenly thought of what Du Qi said just now. What Du Qi said was to discuss this matter, which meant that there was room for turning around.

    After Luo Song had a rough analysis, he calmed down a little, and said: "Your Highness, Luo Song, my father is Luo Yansheng. I think that the abolition of slaves is self-defeating and destroying the foundation of Your Highness."

    Du Qi said with a smile: "This king is also a newcomer, so I don't know the situation in Yizhou. Since you have an opinion, Luo Song, please tell me."

    These words give room for turning around.

    If Du Qi had been determined, he wouldn't have said that.  At any rate, Luo Song came from a big family, so he understood this aspect. When he heard Du Qi's words, he took advantage of the situation and said: "Reporting to Your Highness, the reason is very simple. In the land of Yizhou, and even in the west of Yizhou, slaves  It's all fundamental."

    "Every household has slaves."

    "There are countless big clans, and there are countless slaves. After all, with slaves, many things can be arranged, and you don't need to do things yourself. To put it bluntly, this is the fundamental system."

    "If this point is abolished, then Illinois under His Highness's governance will definitely be shaken."

    Luo Song continued: "Even the originally quiet Yizhou will immediately become turbulent, which is not conducive to His Highness's governance. Therefore, on this point, I do not recommend abolishing slaves, and please think twice, Your Highness."

    "Your Highness, please think twice!"

    In the crowd, someone stood up and spoke again.

    This is the head of the Yuan family.

    "Your Highness, slaves are one of the foundations of Yizhou. Once slaves are abolished, His Highness will cut off his hands and feet. Your Highness is wise and mighty, and must understand this truth."

    "Your Highness, don't mess around!"

    "It's about the stability of the entire Illinois. Once His Royal Highness adopts this plan, the entire Illinois will inevitably be turbulent. Even if we support His Highness, the following will also be turbulent."

    "Your Highness, please think twice!"

    One after another, they kept opening their mouths.

    Because slaves have the closest relationship with them.  Once Du Qi insists on implementing it, their big families will be the first to be affected.

    Du Qi looked at the excited emotions of the crowd, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

    This is what he wanted.

    The more these people opposed, the more ferocious the suppression and suppression of Bard would be.  Because this incident was caused by Bard.  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
