C29 Heavy Bomb

As far as Lee Xiang knows, most of the countries in Osman Continent are ruled by white men. One thing to explain was that in the entire continent, the ratio of white people was the least. Compared to yellow people, black people, and even brown skinned people, they were considered to be standard "minorities"! The true proportion of people occupying was less than 20%! It could be said that this was the typical example of a minority ruling the majority. As for the Asians and the black people, they were comparatively the majority. As for the people with brown skin, Because they were a native race, they had always been one of the very few races in the entire continent.

In fact, in the beginning, the people of each race were actually quite similar. It was even said that the aboriginals with brown skin were the race with the most population. However, as time passed, this difference was slowly revealed. Especially after the white man dominated this world. This trend was especially obvious. It even shows an extreme trend that every country is extremely worried about. The population of the lower races was increasing crazily, while the population of the white people had not increased at all. There had even been a significant negative growth in recent years.

Such a statistic caused panic to appear in the upper echelons of the various countries led by the white people. If they allowed this trend to continue, there would be a day when the white people would become a subsidiary of this continent. But in the face of such a situation, Those in power were unable to come up with a clear solution, even though it was to encourage the citizens of their own country to raise more. However, this encouraged the people of the lower races, which did not have any effect on the white people. This result made those in power very depressed. Because in the end, they realized that the policies they had painstakingly dug out to encourage the white people had all fallen into the hands of the Lower Race. This was called lifting a stone to smash his own feet. But they could not abolish this law, because if this was the case, it would probably cause the Lower Race to react strongly. This was even worse.

Thus, in the end, they came up with an idea, which was to allow white people to transfer their children to each other. And because of this, a series of preferential policies were introduced. The goal was to encourage those white families with poor population to thrive.

Up until today, this kind of behavior was already widely spread among the white people. Moreover, they did not feel ashamed at all and instead felt proud of it!

Then, why was this continent still ruled by a small number of white people under such a ratio? Why was it that most of the Lower Race were ruled? Even the basic resistance was not much? In fact, Lee Xiang had thought of this question a long time ago.

It was a very simple theory. First of all, the Lower Race had been ruled for a long period of several thousand years. To put it bluntly, they might have already been completely enslaved! Once there was a day when they were truly the ones in charge, On the contrary, they are not used to it. Secondly, after thousands of years, the white people had grasped most of the resources on this continent, or even all of them. And the main reason was that all the strong people on this continent, whether they were knights or mages, were white people. Because the Lower Race had no chance at all. Even if there was a chance, the high cost was not something they could afford! Of course, it was not that there were no low race people who could make a name for themselves. However, this was still a minority. If there had to be a ratio, perhaps one out of a hundred would be from a lower race! The vast majority of Lower Race were still engaged in lowly jobs that they were familiar with. This was the difference.

As for the percentage of population, this was even easier to explain to Lee Xiang. First of all, to the peasants, One more person meant one more labor force, and the peasants of the lower races were all engaged in the lowliest and most tiring work on this continent. Then their birth rate was not something strange. But the white people did not have such concerns about increasing their labor force. For them, it was better to hire a few more people or buy a few more slaves. Secondly, The various races of the lower races could freely marry, which was also a factor in the increase in population. But the white people were different, their marriage had a very strict bloodline concept. . . There were even many white people who were close to marriage because of this bloodline concept. It was also because of this pure bloodline concept. Thus, the birth rate of their population was limited. The last and most crucial point, Because the peasants were poor, they did not have a rich and colorful amateur life. Moreover, they did not have the leisure to do so, so every night, they had nothing else to do. They could only hug their wife and sleep. This way, it would be very difficult for them not to give birth to more children. But white people were different. They had an endless dance party during the day, and they could even go to some high-end places at night to have fun. They could find different women to accompany them. Because they had money and time. . . On the contrary, they had very little time to stay at home with their wives. Although they had three wives and four concubines at the same time, the principle of home flowers never having wildflowers was also prevalent in this continent! This was also the most important reason why the birth rate of white people was not high. It was also the most fatal factor.

Therefore, based on the three reasons above, Lee Xiang easily came to a conclusion. Although the last reason was more absurd, it was true. However, it seemed that many white people did not understand this reason.

The last day of the 9th month of Reiss Empire.

On this day, a piece of news that stunned everyone spread from the imperial capital.

Third young master of Rinker family, the yellow man, Lee Xiang, was killed by his grandfather. Duke Ronton of Silo Province had adopted him! Once this news was announced, it immediately became an interesting topic on the streets. It even became a joke for people after meals. A white person adopting a low yellow person was already a very sensational matter. Although this Duke Ronton did not have a grandson, But he had a son, and even though his son did not have an heir so far, Although he was a woman, the law of the Empire allowed a woman to be the heir to the Duke! Even if he did not want his granddaughter to inherit his title, But in the future, his son could still continue to be raised. Why would Duke Ronton adopt a lowly commoner? Although this lowly commoner was his grandson, it was not right to adopt a yellow person! Moreover, it was such a big publicity campaign, as if he was afraid others would not know. How could there not be so many suspicious points? Could it not cause a stir? But there was something even more sensational at the back.

After that, Duke Ronton very vaguely explained these suspicious points in a semi-public place.

In Reiss Empire, many people only knew that Duke Ronton had a son and a daughter. They knew that Lee Xiang's mother was Count Walker's wife, and the other one was her brother. Lee Xiang's mother had an eldest son before this. However, he died when he was ten years old due to a very unexpected event. As for what it was, Duke Ronton did not explain in detail. He adopted Lee Xiang on behalf of his eldest son. As for why he wanted to adopt such a lowly yellow person, Duke Ronton's explanation was even simpler.

"I don't care who he is, no matter what skin color he has, the most important thing is that he is my daughter's child. The key is that he has half of my family's bloodline!"

Such an emotional and sad explanation. . . Regardless of whether it was true or not, it had won Duke Ronton an absolute favorable impression, especially the favorable impression of the Lower Race.

On the same day, the emperor of the empire, Weyers III, issued a decree that shocked the entire empire and even the entire continent.

The imperial decree was that Lee Xiang was the First Grade Baron! He would enjoy all of Baron's treatment! In addition, according to the tradition of Reiss Empire, Lee Xiang would be the third successor to Duke Ronton's throne.

Although the decree was simple and concise, it was no different from throwing a heavy bomb in the entire empire. In an instant, a thousand layers of waves were stirred up. Whether it was among the white people or within the Lower Race, It could be said to have caused a huge reaction. Especially the yellow people, everyone was cheering. To them, This seemed to be a good sign, a good start!

It was worth mentioning that the Empire's Weyers III had even specially issued this decree to the various provinces. Hence, it showed great support for Duke Ronton and the Rinker family's actions.

One had to know that this was a rare occurrence that was rarely seen in a thousand years. Ever since the establishment of the Reiss Empire, there had never been a Lower Race that could bestow such a high title. Even during the era of Richard III, there was only one black man who had been awarded a rank 3 viscount. And the rank of a rank 1 Baron was second only to a count. Even a white man might not have such an honor. One should know that even Lee Xiang's elder brother. . . Up until now, the heir of the Rinker family, William, was only a second rank Baron. Not to mention a yellow man like Lee Xiang.
