Chapter 2821 The Slums of the Poseidon Clan

Walking in the streets and alleys, I feel a little confused and familiar at the same time.

Rows of Japanese-style buildings, tall and cold white-painted brick walls, bluestone-paved roads, and human-shaped streets made of cobblestones on both sides

These architectural styles are very similar to Airui City. I even suspect that the prototype of the Poseidon Clan was designed according to Airui City.

Is everything just a coincidence? In other words, are there any secrets that I don’t know?

Walking on the street, I passed by hurried pedestrians. The latter cast a cold gaze on me and glanced at me. I couldn't help but be stunned.

what's the situation?

Why are you looking at me like that?

It was just a passing by inadvertently. Why do you have to show disgust in your eyes?

Could it be that this is the way the Poseidon clan greets people?

When I was wondering, the man suddenly stopped. I looked at him uneasily, thinking that this seemingly cold and arrogant guy would come back to teach me a lesson. Unexpectedly, the next second, his cold face turned into something cold. A flattering smile appeared, and the cold eyes were like melted honey, ambiguous and sticky.

Following my line of sight, I saw a couple. The man was tall and handsome, and the woman was cold and beautiful. They were walking slowly side by side. On both sides of them, there were four guards following them.

"Ah~ Sir!" The man who looked at me with a frown before, hunched his back and rubbed his hands together, looking like a slave: "I feel honored that you are here!"

The handsome man rolled his eyelids arrogantly and let out a disdainful snort in response.

"Quick, please come into the house!" The man greeted not far away. Soon, a group of smiling slaves walked out from one of the high-gate courtyards, and greeted the handsome man with a very low posture. Enter the mansion.

I stood aside silently and watched this scene quietly.

Is the concept of family status in the Poseidon clan also so strong?

I said silently in my heart.

The door of the mansion was closed, and the brief hustle and bustle temporarily stopped, and everything returned to silence. Only sounds could occasionally be heard from within the mansion. The contents of the sounds were very complex, including laughter, noises, and people who could not describe what they were doing. What kind of sound, it’s just very complicated.

Listening to the vague voice, I suddenly remembered a historical document related to Airei City that I had read a few months ago.

The literature describes the living conditions in Airui City during the goblin rule. It was an era when local clans were in power, and a strict hierarchy maintained local order.

When people of the lower class meet people of the upper class, they must bow and salute, and they must also smile. The smile must be bright and sincere. Even if a family member dies, they still have to smile!

This system that was against human rights lasted from the goblin rule to the end of the melee period, until it was completely destroyed by Carter Adams. Human rights finally returned to everyone in Airy City.

Although subsequent monarchs gradually took back the human rights that had been distributed one by one, it was impossible to reproduce the almost ruthless and strict hierarchy like earlier.

At this point, I have to mention that at the end of the goblin rule, when all races revolted with hatred, it seemed to have been mentioned at the swearing-in meeting that the goblins used unequal treatment to oppress, humiliate, and target the middle and lower classes of all races. This incident was recorded in certain historical documents that were not destroyed and remain to this day.

Now it seems that the goblin tribe really took a big blame back then!

The overt bullying, oppression, and targeting of the middle and lower classes are all done secretly by the upper classes of all races. Even the Goblin Royal Family has promulgated the ban on most of the class system more than once, and has shouted slogans to harmonize the relationship between the upper class and the lower class. , but for their own benefit, this group of nobles not only violated the orders issued by the goblin royal family, but when the people were angry, they threw all inhumane behaviors and actions on the goblin royal family.

It feels shameless when I think about it, but it is really effective.

It is said that there were at least hundreds of millions of middle- and lower-class people inspired by the slogans at that time. This group of people swarmed into the palace from all over the country, burned, killed, looted, smashed, trampled wantonly, and vented their dissatisfaction with the goblin royal family in an almost crazy way. But the nobles of various ethnic groups who really caused their misfortune were holding teacups, sipping Mingqian's good tea, and enjoying the tragedy directed and performed by them with a wild smile.

In the end, the goblin royal family was wiped out and its people were displaced. The originally unified Zephyr Continent also fell apart and officially entered a period of melee.

Did people's lives get better during the melee?

No, no, the life of the people of the middle and lower classes is still bad, even worse than before. At least there will be no large-scale continuous wars during the goblin rule, and during the melee period, human lives are really like grass.

Perhaps it was not until that time that the middle- and lower-class people gradually realized that the goblin rule was not as bad as they imagined. At least they would not be killed as soon as they were killed. Moreover, when they did not have enough to eat due to injustice, they could also seek help from the emperor. They all complained to the local department, suppressed the domineering nobles, and obtained some deserved benefits from the suppression.

I think, at that moment, they should have regretted it.

Walking on the road that gradually became muddy, the wild laughter in my ears gradually faded, became less frequent, and finally disappeared completely. It was replaced by the sound of bleak footsteps and silent sobs.

I thought that the awesome Poseidon Clan did not exist in slums, but it seems I was wrong.

The slums of the Poseidon Clan are even worse than those in Airui City, and many residents don't even have a place to live.

From this point alone, I give a lot of points to the Carter family.

The Carter family will send people to the slums at least every two to three years to repair old houses or rebuild new ones. Although the slum residents in Airey City live a very difficult life, they can at least have a place to live. Look at the sea. In the slums of the Protoss, there are naked people everywhere, and people sleeping on the streets line up like streets.

It’s truly a ‘splendid scene’!

Just as he was sighing with a sneer, he heard another cry in his ears. He turned around and saw that a child had died in a family.

From the outside, the child was sick and starved to death. Rows of ribs could be clearly seen on the thin body. The thighs that should have been very strong were so thin that they were not as thick as my wrists. The longing for life was on the pale face. , and then he died like this.

His parents didn't feel too sad. They quickly rolled up the child in a torn bag and put it aside for the time being. Then they went to prepare dinner in the open air. I could tell from their numb expressions that this kind of thing , it is no longer as simple as happening once or twice.
