Chapter 157 Leave It to You to Choose
As the night gradually deepened, this secluded courtyard gradually fell into silence. [乐^read^novel][].[乐阅读][x].[]
Hearing the laughter and playfulness of the orc girls in the distance gradually stopped, a trace of disappointment flashed across Xu Yi's face.
He waited patiently here for a full two hours, but so far no girl from the orc tribe has come to him.
Of course, he wasn't waiting for any orc girl to sacrifice herself, but to see if any of these orc girls had that kind of awareness.
Two hours ago, Xu Yi announced to the orc girls that he would set off to return to Bangta City tomorrow. If any orc girls wanted to go back with him, they could go together.
At the same time, he also said that after returning to Bangta City, he will discuss with Steele and decide on the future arrangement of the New Moon Song and Dance Troupe. Leave. And if you don't want to stay and want to find another way out for yourself, he also welcomes them and will try their best to make arrangements.
In order to let these orc girls understand what he meant, Xu Yi even told them very clearly that his expectation for the Crescent Song and Dance Troupe is to make it a part of the orc race to show themselves to humans in the Kingdom of Lampari and change the status of the orc race They do not want the Crescent Moon Song and Dance Troupe to be a simple springboard through which they can live a luxurious life of human beings.
"To put it simply, I don't want you to become the playthings of any human noble or businessman." In the end, Xu Yi even dropped such a sentence very bluntly.
However, after saying this, Xu Yi waited patiently for two hours in the room arranged for him by Baron Haines. But none of the orc girls took the initiative to find him.
Xu Yi was naturally very disappointed by this.
But after thinking about it, he felt that this was actually because he was asking too much of those orc girls.
For these orc girls, because they have been living in the black rice wasteland with difficult conditions before, now that they have come to Anweimar City and seen the luxurious life of human noble merchants, it is only natural that they will be attracted and tempted In fact, Xu Yi's blaming and forcing demands on them in this way is actually unreasonable.
"Maybe I should read it hard?" Xu Yi watched the magic lamp go out at the last stop in the courtyard where the orc girls were resting, and he hesitated for a moment.
Since the New Moon Song and Dance Troupe fulfilled his expectations, when the direction of the New Moon Song and Dance Troupe went against his expectations. He should have turned around by force.
With his and Steele's ability to control these orc girls. It's a breeze.
But when Xu Yi thought of the happy smiles of those orc girls when they mentioned their life in Anweimar City, Xu Yi couldn't bear it.
"No human has ever considered so much for the orcs like me, right? Since this is the path they chose, let them go..."
Xu Yi smiled wryly and shook his head slowly. Stand up and get ready to rest.
Just opened the door of the room. I saw a white shadow appearing on the path outside the door.
Watching Avril Lavigne approaching floatingly. Xu Yi couldn't help showing a smile.
"What? Avril, are you still awake?"
Avril shook her head slightly, and a bunch of furry fox ears shook twice in the night wind. It added a playful flavor to her, and with her delicate and beautiful face, it is no wonder that she became the target pursued by many noble merchants in Anweimar City.
"Master President, can I interrupt you for a while?"
"come in."
Entering the room, Avril took the initiative to pour a cup of tea for Xu Yi first, and then stood respectfully opposite Xu Yi, until Xu Yi motioned to her, and she sat down opposite Xu Yi.
"If you have anything to say, just say it directly." Xu Yi said with a gentle tone and expression.
Avril gritted her teeth lightly, her expression seemed a little hesitant, and after a while, she seemed to have made up her mind and read the head hard.
"Master President, in fact... In fact, we all understand what you said to us just now, and everyone is very grateful to you, because from your words and your attitude towards us all the time, we are very clear. , you are one of the few human beings who truly treats us equally. And those human nobles and businessmen who pursue us really just treat us as playthings."
Xu Yi glanced at Avril in surprise, thinking that these orc girls are not brainless.
"It seems that you are their representative?" Xu Yi smiled. "Okay, tell me your thoughts and decisions."
"Master President, in fact... you may actually look down on us, but in our opinion, even if they are treated as playthings by those human nobles and merchants, as long as they can give us a good living condition, we feel that they are treated as playthings." ...it's nothing..."
"So you are very clear about what you want." Xu Yi read the head. "If this is your final choice, then I have no objection. But I must warn you, if anyone makes such a choice, he must withdraw from the New Moon Song and Dance Troupe, because I need to keep this song and dance troupe pure."
Avril shook her head: "My lord, you misunderstood. We actually only want a stable and comfortable life. After all, everyone used to live in the black rice wasteland, and the conditions were very poor. You must be very clear. Now we can have Nobody wants to miss out on the opportunity to have a good life."
Xu Yi snorted softly: "As I said, this is your own choice, and I will not interfere with you. But I have the right to interfere with this song and dance troupe."
Avril gritted her silver teeth lightly, with a bitter expression on her face, she shook her head slightly and said, "Master President, you still don't understand what I mean. In fact, we...we are very disturbed."
"Uneasy?" Xu Yi glanced at her slightly in surprise, saw Avril's complex expressions of panic, hesitation, anxiety, etc., and read his head slightly. "You came to live in our human world from the Black Rice Wasteland. It's normal to feel uneasy. But I think it's really not a good choice for you to pin your hopes on those noble merchants who pursue you."
"We all understand this reading, but Mr. President, how can you let us choose?" At this point, Avril suddenly looked at Xu Yi with a hint of resentment. "Actually... Mr. President, when the sisters of the song and dance troupe chatted in private, they agreed that you are countless times better than those noble merchants in Anweimar City. If you are willing to accept us. Everyone will be very happy."
Looking at the anticipation in Avril's eyes. A trace of embarrassment flashed across Xu Yi's face, he coughed lightly, waved his hands and said, "If I do this, how is it different from those noble merchants who want to treat you as playthings? So don't mention it again."
Avril looked disappointed. Sigh. Shaking his head, he said, "No. President, you are different, because you treat us equally from the bottom of your heart. Unlike the noble merchants in Anweimar City, who only respect us on the surface."
"Since you think that I treat you all equally, then it is even more impossible for me to do such a thing." Xu Yi took a breath and said seriously: "Okay, I understand what you think. I also said, no Interfere with your own decisions. But I can assure you of one thing here."
Avril blinked her big eyes that were naturally charming, and looked at Xu Yi intently.
"If you can choose to stay in the New Moon Song and Dance Troupe, then I will try my best to find a way for you to truly stand on your own and gain a foothold in our human world without the need to be attached to other humans. I can't guarantee 100% It can be done, but I will try my best. If you believe in me, stay, if you don't believe me, then I will not interfere with your other choices."
Avril's beautiful eyes blinked slightly, her expression moved slightly, and she opened her mouth, as if she wanted to say something, but she paused and didn't say it.
After contemplating for a while, Avril Lavigne bowed respectfully to Xu Yi and withdrew.
As soon as Avril Lavigne left, Baron Heiners entered the room on the back foot.
"Xu Yi, what are you doing so hard for some orcs?" Baron Haines frowned, showing a puzzled expression. "Actually, your purpose is to let other people in the kingdom accept workers of different races, right? I think it's very simple. Now that so many workers of different races are working in your Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, everyone has long known that they can bring a lot of workers. The good thing is, it’s actually not that difficult to accept.”
"It's different." Xu Yi shook his head. "Our Xinfei Chamber of Commerce quickly accepts workers of different races because of me. Others are different. Even in Bangta City now, workers of different races still receive some discrimination."
Baron Haines still said: "Do you still want all human beings to treat all different races equally? This is definitely impossible!"
"How do you know it's impossible if you haven't tried it?" Xu Yi glanced at him.
Haines was a little puzzled: "Xu Yi, I still don't understand why you must let humans and alien races coexist peacefully? If you want to get something from those alien races, with our current strength, directly force them Just take it out, why bother so much.”
"You don't understand this. The reason why different races are different races means that they must have many differences from us humans. There are some things that we humans cannot learn even if they show them. Coercion may be able to Get some benefits, but definitely not get what I really need. So in order to get the best from them, they need to be willing."
"What? Has your Xinfei Chamber of Commerce benefited from the alien race?" Baron Haines asked.
"Of course. I can even say that our Xinfei Chamber of Commerce is able to develop so fast and so well at present, and the other races in the chamber of commerce have played a huge role in it. Without their work and dedication, the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce will definitely not will become as strong as it is now."
Hearing Xu Yi's complacent tone, Baron Haines suddenly laughed.
"That's good, President Xu of the powerful Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, I hope that when you see the old men of the noble council tomorrow, you can laugh like you do now."
Xu Yi immediately frowned deeply. (To be continued..)
