Why
No dwarf knows why, because they have lived like this for thousands of years, whether in the Lonely Mountain or the Blue Mountain, whether they are humans, elves, orcs, or goblins they know, it has always been the same. In the model, the king is high and the nobles are protecting the king. As for the common people, in epics, legends, and even ordinary fairy tales, the common people do not exist at all, as if
Just like the king led the nobles to create countless wealth and culture, the first people of a race are always the kings and heroes, the first people are always familiar with the nobles and their territories, and the common people are like a symbol The same, such as dwarves, such as humans, such a symbol.
Just like real history, in epics, great men have always led fierce generals and wise men to create empires and create splendid cultures. If we talk about ordinary people, at most adding hard work and kindness is considered good, and more often than not Words like ignorance and the ugliness of human nature are placed on his head, as if otherwise they are not enough to compare with the leader's wisdom and prowess.
Situations like this can be found everywhere in games and movies at all times and in all countries, but almost no one will ask why, as if this is a matter of course.
The dwarves in The Lord of the Rings have an outright and irritable personality. They have an unimaginable love for precious metals. They are also very hard-working and have excellent physical fitness. They sound like the kind of people with well-developed limbs and simple minds, but they are definitely not fools. What is good? , they had their own idea of what was bad. It seemed that Chu Hao's few simple words made them activate twice in a row. In fact, that was not the case at all. Chu Hao's words were just an inducement, what really made them act like this. , in fact, it’s just because they want to.
The first time I dealt with those nobles, the reason was very simple. It was because those nobles were so rich, but they were poor, with not enough food to eat, not enough clothes to wear, and living in human society. There were many dwarves who starved to death, and the nobles Their wealth was a figure they could not imagine. In normal times, based on their deep-rooted fear of the nobles for thousands of years, they would not do anything. But now that these nobles have an excuse to betray Thorin, they have The crowd was booing and thinking that the law should not be blamed. These dwarves broke out for the first time in rebellion and robbed and massacred the dwarf nobles. However, they did get benefits and their living standards did improve.
But it is still the idea of aristocratic supremacy that has been deep-rooted for thousands of years. They have placed themselves as criminals and rebels from the beginning, so they quickly elected new dwarf elders as one of the manifestations, and then tried their best to distribute the wealth equally to those who did not participate The rebellion of the dwarves is one of the manifestations, and even the house arrest of Chu Hao and others, and the attempt to make peace with the dwarf nobles are also manifestations of this. These all show that they still regard the nobles as superior beings. As long as they can forgive their sins, then they really can't Mind handing over the culprit even if the culprit has brought them a lot of benefits.
And the second time, it was caused by multiple reasons. Is it really possible that Chu Hao formed this situation with just a few words? It's not that simple. Chu Hao has never learned the legendary mouth escape, nor is it any kind of hypnosis. , just a few words can stir people up. Just as people say that Hitler's speeches always have a kind of enthusiasm, which makes people follow him fanatically. If Germany at that time was not in the situation of a defeated country that failed in World War I, Hitler's speeches would not be the same. There will be that kind of fanatical emotion in it.
Language can only make you do what you want to do, but not what you don't want to do. This is not hypnosis, it is just language.
Seeing that people who were common people like me in the past had gained so much wealth almost instantly. The so-called equal wealth was just a lie. Anyone who was deceived would be angry. What was even more terrifying was not just this. , these dwarves are in the middle of life and death. The so-called great terror between life and death, if they die all of a sudden, it is nothing, but this feeling of approaching death is the most excruciating. Because of this, many have experienced suicide and are on the verge of death. Basically, people will never try it again, and this is how the dwarves feel at this moment.
For the deep-rooted fear of noble status, order, and territory, their first thought was to surrender, but when they failed to surrender, their second thought was to escape, and now, they are about to escape.
Who can tell me why
Chu Hao's voice was still stirring, and because he used magic, the voice spread far and wide. Many dwarf civilians waiting for the news outside the conference hall could also hear it clearly. Everyone It was silent, and they were each asking themselves why.
In fact, everyone can understand this truth, otherwise no one would have called out princes and generals in ancient times. It is just the inertia of thoughts over thousands of years. This has been the pattern from ancient times to the present. Nobles The people endured the oppression, and when they finally couldn't bear it any longer and were about to perish, they united to overthrow the nobles. Then among the people who overthrew the nobles, there must be smarter and more cunning heroes, and they rose above the ordinary people. Forming a new aristocracy and then starting a new reincarnation has been like this for thousands of years. Even in modern times, when the aristocracy is replaced by officials and merchants, the essence has not changed.
then why
The dwarves were talking to themselves. In the end, their discussion became louder and louder. They were all talking about why. Some said that those people were nobles, so they should be like this. Some said that those nobles were managing the dwarves on behalf of the gods. Some said that those nobles were managing the dwarves on behalf of the gods. They said that the nobles protected the dwarves, but no one could convince anyone. For a while, the entire Blue Mountain capital was in a noisy discussion.
That's because they steal the surplus value of your labor
Chu Hao's voice rang again. He raised one hand, his expression could almost be described as ferocious, and he continued to roar: Farmers cultivate the land, and the food they grow, why do they have to pay taxes to every noble? The food that a person grows is enough for him and his family to enjoy for a year and there is still some leftover. But after paying the taxes to the nobles, you will not be able to even barely eat the food left. You can only starve the miners to dig out the minerals. Why are you doing this? The minerals have to be handed over to the nobles and you can only get a daily salary of abject poverty. Are the minerals, gold, and gems you mine worth such a small amount of money? You don't have enough to eat, you don't wear warm clothes, you are in darkness, and you work all day. Is it just that? Is it worth the money
Blacksmiths too, builders too, tinkers, weaponsmiths, everyone. Calculate it for yourself. The fruits of your labor and the wealth you create are such huge wealth. Why are you still living in such hardship? Who can tell? Why do I
The dwarves in The Lord of the Rings are straight-tempered and violent. They are not stupid. If you think about the income from your labor carefully, if you farm for a year, the food will definitely be enough for you and your family, and there will be a lot left over. As for the miners, Also, the wealth of gold, gems, iron ore, silver ore excavated is also amazing. The same is true for other craftsmen. They are all calculating the wealth they create every day, and then they are surprised to find that they actually He should be very rich, there is no way he would be in such poverty.
In fact, Chu Hao used a small trap in his words here, that is, the issue of raw materials and social division of labor. Of course, it is naturally impossible for him to explain modern social politics to the dwarves here. All he needs is to let these dwarves Understand the fact that they should actually be very wealthy.
I think you have already calculated the wealth you get from your daily work. You should be very rich. You live in the best houses, eat the most exquisite food, wear the most gorgeous clothes, and have countless savings at home. Pure gold, this is how you should live. Then why, after creating so much wealth every day, can't you even have enough to eat
Some dwarves have already figured out why. Their eyes were red and they were even breathing heavily from their noses. The most excited dwarfs already shouted loudly: It's because those nobles are thieves, they are robbers, they are robbers, they Stealing the wealth we create every day, and then throwing some bones to us so that we can't even eat enough, it's them, those nobles
More and more dwarves also understand such a simple truth, that is, the wealth they create every day is enough to make them rich. The reason why they are so poor now can only be because the rich dwarf nobles plundered their wealth. This reason is very simple. , and soon, a large number of dwarves roared and shouted loudly, and the entire Blue Mountain capital seemed to be caught in this intense emotion like fire.
Yes, we just took back the wealth we created. Those dwarf nobles, who never produced labor, are the real criminals. And now, those criminals are entangled with a group of rogue troops, trying to enter the Blue Mountains again and enslave them again. You, I treat you as slaves again, making you work hard every day, but you don’t even have the right to eat. Not only you, but also your sons, your grandsons, and your great-grandsons, they will rule you for thousands of years. , they will make you slaves until you die. When you die, they will point to your bones and say to their descendants, who will also become nobles in the future, look, these are slaves.
Stand up. It is our labor that has created all the wealth. It is our hard work that has given us so much wealth. Then why not let us enjoy all this? Stand up, all workers, stand up, all those who have awakened. Hardworking people, don’t be enslaved by those nobles like slaves, don’t run away like cowards, they are not floods, they are not invincible, they are just a group of despicable thieves who come to steal your wealth and steal the fruits of your labor.
Defeat them, take up arms, we have tens of thousands of adult dwarf men, they are only a few thousand rabble, take up arms, defend our homeland, protect the fruits of our labor, and drive the invaders out of the Blue Mountains, we absolutely cannot Take half a step back. Behind you is your family, your home, and your wealth.
Defend the Blue Mountains, Defend the Blue Mountains
Countless roars rang out, and countless dwarf civilians rushed into the weapons depot and started holding weapons. Not far outside the Blue Mountain capital, the mercenaries led by the dwarf nobles still looked like they were on a leisurely outing. Looks like, walking towards this active volcano
