105 Chapter 105 (1/2)

Lin was confused about what the villager said, he could hear the anger from his voice and he understand this feeling completely.

The villager become silent for a moment and looked around to see something, then he approached Lin and began to tell:

”It is obvious that you are new here. We are so to say the free slaves of the upper worlds. For the development that began about 10 year ago, the upper worlds needed a lot of workforce and materials, but the people from the upper worlds were too arrogant to take these jobs. So, the central government gave the order that allowed the upper worlds to use the resources of lower worlds. Since then we, free people, become free worker for the upper worlds. Even if the slavery is forbidden, we are called workers and we get a place to live and food. But it is always very scarce and the majority of times families have to share a house to live there.”

”Young boy, you are new here and I know what they told you as they sent you here. They promised you a beautiful living and food and a wage, but these are only promising, and they will never become true. I am here for 9 years and I cannot leave this place, I even married with another worker and I got one son, and now my son has to work with us too.” Said the man with a sad expression and regrets were to see in his face.

Lin understood what was happening here and he become angry again. He knew what was happening here very good. Back on earth he researched a lot about why the black people and the people in very poor countries lived like that and were poor. After a long time researching, he concluded that he was part of the problem. The rich and powerful countries oppressed the poor ones and they did not let them develop. Sometimes they showed some show how they helped those countries and at he ends it was only for show.

But on earth they oppressed using laws and restrictions and here they made it openly and used a show to make these places look beautiful and fair.

Lin nodded and asked: ”Why does nobody oppose against this order. Are there no righteous people?”

The man laughed and replied: ”Try to oppose against an immortal and they tell me if you survived. Wait, you cannot even tell, then you are dead now when you oppose against them. And the people from the upper world do not even know that such places, they think these places are good opportunities to work. But once they arrive, they are trapped for ever here, like me.”

Lin said then: ”I understand, thank you. Can you tell what your name is?”

The man smiled and replied: ”I am Carlos Limes, I know my last name is strange, but in the past, we planted limes and sold them. Before all this happen, my family owned a farm of limes.”

Lin laughed and replied: ”No, it is not strange. The last name represents the family and if your family were proud limes farmers, then it is good. Thank to people like you we have limes to eat and prepare delicious food.”
