It's broken! I was targeted by the villain after the apocalypse
Chapter 392 Offering Loyalty
Liu Jinan avoided everyone, summoned Duan Haiping, and was walking towards the banquet hall when he happened to hear the voices of the Pixiu tribe members talking.
I didn’t expect that Pi Xiu would be so stingy that he wouldn’t even give the people broth to drink.
"It seems like fate has blessed these people to be captured by you." Duan Haiping laughed, "This is the first time I have experienced the truth that misfortune may turn out to be a blessing in disguise."
Liu Jinan squeezed the man's palm and said, "I want to go over and talk to them. Do you want to come with me?"
Duan Haiping jokingly said, "How dare I refuse the invitation of the Lord God Slayer?"
Liu Jinan smiled. There was no such thing as a god killer. It was just the product of the great god Gonggong's passive resistance.
However, he did not correct the other party's address to him.
It's much better than calling him baby in front of so many people.
Liu Jinan stepped forward, and the soldiers guarding the prisoners immediately knelt down and said, "Greetings, Lord God Slayer."
Liu Jinan looked down and saw that it was an acquaintance: "Yang Li? Hurry up and get up. It turns out that you are in charge of guarding these prisoners."
Yang Li stood up and nodded: "Why don't you go to the celebration banquet, sir? Yang Yan will be there too."
However, as the manager of the Bifang tribe, Yang Yan had little influence and could only sit in the corner.
"The celebration banquet was held for the soldiers. When I was there, everyone couldn't relax." Liu Jinan replied.
Because of this, he, Bifang, and the other auspicious beasts all tacitly chose to show up and leave.
This was a rare moment of relaxation after the war, and he didn't have the heart to disturb the soldiers.
Yang Li bowed his head: "Lord God Slayer is compassionate to us all, which is a blessing for us warriors."
"Okay, let's not talk about this," Liu Jinan patted his shoulder, "I'll come over to see the prisoners and talk to them."
Yang Li nodded, stood aside tactfully, and guarded silently.
Duan Haiping said thoughtfully: "It seems that you have a high prestige in the four major tribes. It can be seen that the warriors are very respectful of you. You are worthy of being the man that I, Duan Haiping, have set my eyes on. Commanding thousands of troops is no problem for you."
"Don't flatter me. Yang Li respects me because we have a personal relationship."
Liu Jinan rescued Yang Li and others from the Huodou tribe. Since then, they have respected him very much.
With Bifang's instigation, the entire Bifang tribe worshipped him as a god.
"Okay, okay, whatever you say goes." Duan Haiping knew in his heart that the truth was far more complicated than Liu Jinan said so lightly.
However, since Liu Jinan didn't want to say more, he naturally followed the other party's ideas.
And he also needs to be more careful. He has to keep a close eye on such an excellent treasure.
As he spoke, Liu Jinan had already arrived beside the captives.
The child who just spoke was so scared that he shrank his neck like a quail.
His parents protected him behind them and stared at Liu Jinan with fearful and fearless eyes.
"Don't worry, I mean no harm." Liu Jinan spoke in a gentle voice, seemingly as harmless as he appeared.
But these captives had seen Liu Jinan killing people everywhere. He was like a god of death descending from the sky. Wherever he passed, corpses were everywhere and blood flowed like a river.
"You, what are you going to do? Have you changed your mind and want to kill us?" one of the prisoners asked tremblingly.
Liu Jinan chuckled and said, "If I wanted to kill you, I would have killed you long ago. Why did I keep you here until now? I also gave you meat soup to drink and meat scraps to eat. Isn't that a waste of good food?"
It's really a bit unfair to say this. There's just a little bit of meat scraps and broth without much seasoning, but he won't drink it even if I beg him to!
But even such a tasteless broth is a supreme delicacy in the eyes of these captives.
It’s hard to imagine what kind of life they lived in the past.
It is for this reason that Liu Jinan plans to come in and recruit the tribes.
He not only wanted them to work for the tribe, but also to work willingly.
"Well, then what do you want to do?" the prisoner said bitterly, "We are just a group of prisoners who are in danger of losing their lives every day. What do you, a big shot like you, want to get from us?"
"I want your loyalty."
Liu Jinan got straight to the point and said, "Offer your loyalty and your hard work, and I promise that you will have broth and even meat to eat every day in the future."
When these words were spoken, not only the prisoners but even the guards could not believe it.
Yang Li even whispered to Liu Jinan: "They are slaves, and slaves are not worthy of eating meat."
Liu Jinan just smiled and said nothing, he had his own ideas.
The alliance of the four major tribes will eventually flatten the Guixi Volcano, so what should be done with the remaining tribes?
Regardless of whether the four major tribes choose to migrate or maintain the status quo, large tracts of habitable land will be left uninhabited.
The productivity of a tribe is limited. Even with the addition of slaves, it can only improve the original productivity. It is better to put the slaves into these ownerless tribes and continue to maintain their original work.
Liu Jinan initially thought of the household contract responsibility system, but that might be too advanced for the Savage Continent.
If this is not possible, we can also adopt a landlord system or a tax system, requiring workers to hand over their labor income in proportion.
Among so many people, only Duan Haiping could understand Liu Jinan's thoughts.
He stroked the boy's hair and said, "It's a good idea, but how to formulate the system still needs to be fine-tuned. After all, we won't stay here for long. The masters of this place are still the tribe and the beasts."
Liu Jinan nodded slightly, and he would explain his ideas in detail to Bifang and the others.
"Anyway, you're here, and you can fill in any gaps for me." Unconsciously, his trust in Duan Haiping had reached this level.
Duan Haiping smiled slightly: "I am very happy to share your worries."
At that time, the captives did not dare to believe what Liu Jinan said and discussed it privately.
It was the braver prisoner who stood up and said, "Lord God Slayer, are you telling the truth?"
Liu Jinan nodded slightly: "I will try my best to fulfill my promise. If everything comes true, are you willing to follow us?"
"I...I do!"
"If I can have a full meal every day, I would be willing to do that!"
"It doesn't matter whether I drink the broth or not. I really don't want to be hungry anymore..."
Liu Jinan's eyes swept across these excited captives. Their wish was so simple, just to have a full meal.
But under the rule of the Pixiu and other ferocious beasts, even such a simple wish cannot be realized.
"I feel like I've gotten myself into trouble again," Liu Jinan said apologetically after returning to his residence, "Do you think Bifang and the others will agree to my suggestion?"
Duan Haiping took off Liu Jinan's shoes and put his feet in the basin to wash. Hearing this, he comforted him, "They will agree. You are also thinking about the future of the tribe. They have no reason to refuse. The hatred between tribes is often a struggle between rulers. For the vast majority of tribesmen living in dire straits, they will be loyal to whoever can feed and clothe them. They will listen to whoever can let them live and work in peace and contentment."
"What kind of faith is that? It's all bullshit. People are starving to death. There's no point talking about it."
