Chapter 171: Proud Kaido

"I am a rough man and a pirate with a bad reputation. So if I become a general, I am afraid you will be very worried..."

Kaido paused when he said this, mainly because he forgot the words. After Lu Li reminded him, he continued, "So I want my daughter Yamato to be the general of this country. She has never been to sea and grew up in this country. She is the same as everyone present. She is a member of this country and has a heart to make this country better."

This time, the people present all showed an expression of approval, mainly because Yamato has been in contact with them in the past few months. The other party has a pleasing appearance, is cheerful and generous, and has helped everyone to obtain many benefits.

Even if they reject the identity of Yamato's pirate daughter, they can't help but sigh that Yamato is a good general. He really makes them full and their lives are getting better and better.

At this time, Kaido mentioned Yamato, and people began to realize that Yamato and Kaido are father and daughter. Since Yamato is such a cheerful and kind ruler, it can be seen that her family education is very good.

It is said that like father, like son. If so, did they misunderstand Kaido before?

In fact, Kaido is not a cruel, brutal and despicable person, but a hero who also cares about his country?

It's just that Kaido and the former ruling class of this country, the Kozuki clan, were naturally hostile in the past few years, so they subconsciously think that Kaido is a bad guy and the Kozuki family is righteous?

But if you compare it in reality, you will know that many people present were not well fed during the Kozuki family's rule, and there was no good place to live, but now, they are well fed and clothed, and will soon have their own house!

In this way, could Kaido's family be better rulers?

"In the past few months, I have initially seen the results of her governance. At least this country will not see people starving to death on the roadside every day."

Kaido's speech continued, "It was only after I intervened in the rule of this country that I personally experienced the poor things I did in the past few years, such as our factories polluted the environment, causing many lands to no longer produce food, leaving many people displaced and hungry."

The people present were moved when they heard this, because in their concept, the rulers will never admit their mistakes.

A strong man like Kaido, one of the Four Emperors and a great pirate, actually admitted that his factory had drawbacks, which led to the famine of the people, which moved many people.

Well, Lu Li thought it was ridiculous, but this trick worked for the people of Wano Country.

To put it bluntly, the people here are a bit mean, but this also facilitated the alternation of the rule of the Beast Pirates.

Regardless of Kaido's original intention, Lu Li felt that he could make the people of this country live well, which was a kind of compensation for the mistakes.

"But now I have ordered all factories to rectify, and sewage will no longer affect your lives. After that, we will further carry out environmental governance to make the land better and better."

Kaido read the speech with an expressionless face, but the people below were very moved.

"I hope that with our efforts, there will be no more hunger in the future of this country, everyone can eat enough, every family has a house, children can get an education, adults can find a job, and the air is filled with happiness and beauty."

Kaido read the manuscript that made him sick, thinking that everything was for his hegemony.

However, he also admired Lu Li's divine calculation in his heart, because he just said it according to Lu Li's words, and the people below had already shown an expression of emotion, and even a few people shed tears.

Feeling that the atmosphere was about right, Kaido waved his hand again and said proudly: "Wano Country used to be a closed country. Because of the chaos in the new world, closure is a way to protect itself, but from today on, Wano Country will no longer be closed and officially open."

His eyes were bright and he scanned the people present, "Everyone, don't worry, all foreign enemies will be defeated by me, and this country will be protected by me!"

As soon as the voice fell, Lu Li's pre-prepared prop shouted in the crowd, "Guardian God, Ming Wang Kaido!"

Under the atmosphere and deliberate fanning, many people also joined the shouting.

"Guardian God, Ming Wang Kaido!"

"Guardian God, Ming Wang Kaido!"

"Guardian God, Ming Wang Kaido!"

...

At first, it was a sporadic call, and finally it was a continuous city, like a tide sweeping to the distance.

Seeing this scene, even Kaido was shocked. He could feel that the people in the audience who shouted at first were not sincere, but as they continued to shout, their expressions gradually became fanatical, as if they had recognized the fact that he was the patron saint of this country.

The cheers lasted for more than ten minutes before slowly stopping.

Kaido raised his hand and signaled everyone to stop shouting. He finally put on a natural smile on his face and walked to the place where the house deeds were piled up in front of the stage, "Everyone, Wano Country is now in ruins and has just started. I dare not say that everything can be done well, but please let me start by letting you live in a house."

As he said, he looked at the first worker in the audience, "Please go on stage and get your house."

The worker who was lucky enough to be in the first place was really not arranged by Lu Li. He was so eager to get his house as soon as possible that he started queuing here from the early hours of last night.

Now that he was called by Kaido, he was so excited that he couldn't help himself, "It's such an honor that Lord Ming Wang allocated a house for me!"

He was so excited that he walked unsteadily and almost fell when he came to the stage. It was Kaido who stretched out his big hand, grabbed his collar and pulled him up.

He was terrified by his own loss of composure, fearing that he would not be able to get the house because of this, but he found that Lord Ming Wang not only "supported" him, but also had no unhappy expression on his face. Instead, he had put his hand on the pile of house deeds, ready to take the house deeds for himself.

"I, I, I, I am so grateful to Lord Ming Wang. If it weren't for you, I would still be starving and picking up garbage on the roadside. Now I work in a factory and can support myself and my family. Today I can get a house. It's really... There are really no words to express my gratitude."

He spoke incoherently and even shed tears.

The performance of this worker directly made Kaido unable to deal with it. He had never seen people who sincerely thanked him since he went to sea, and he didn't know how to deal with it for a while.

Only after Lu Li's reminder did he ask, "Which factory do you work in?"

"To answer Lord Ming, I work at Factory No. 107 west of Jiuli."

The worker answered quickly.

Under Lu Li's instruction, Kaido took a nearby deed and handed it to the worker, "Write your name, press your fingerprint, and it will be yours."

The worker took it with both hands and tremblingly wrote his name on it. He was uneducated and asked someone to teach him how to write his name two days ago. After writing it crookedly, he pressed his fingerprint.

After completing the process, he felt like he was dreaming and a little dazed.

"Work hard and create a beautiful future for you."

At this time, Lu Li said on the side.

After the worker came to his senses, Lian Lian thanked him, "Thank you Lord Ming, thank you Lord Lu."

After that, he did not dare to delay the people in line behind him and went down the stairs on the other side.

Seeing that the first worker had successfully received a house and was encouraged by Ming Wang and Lu Li, the people on the scene became excited again.

After that, every worker who came on stage successfully received their house. The lucky ones would also receive a casual greeting from Kaido, which made every worker who walked off the stage full of glory.

After noon, Lu Li asked Kaido to leave. After all, there were too many houses to be distributed. If every worker went through the procedures in this way, it would take several days to distribute them all.

Kaido personally came out to distribute houses in the morning, but it was just a performance arranged by Lu Li. The real distribution still had to expand the "service window" and handle it quickly.

After leaving the scene, Kaido breathed a sigh of relief. He opened the collar of his black feather knitting, "I'm really not used to wearing this dress."

Then he looked at Lu Li again, "Don't arrange me to do this kind of thing in the future. It's really annoying."

Lu Li looked at Kaido's face and thought to himself that your expression didn't say that.

Kaido's smile has never stopped since he received the first worker.

Facts have proven that, as long as you are not a psychopath, you will feel happy when someone thanks you with tears of gratitude.

Even Kaido is no exception, but due to Kaido's personality, he instinctively wants to maintain his dignity and will not admit that he feels happy.

Well, to put it bluntly, it is tsundere.

"Don't worry, this incident has set the tone, and I will have people publicize it later. Mr. Kaido will become the protector of the country worshipped by the people in the future, and he should be very loved."

Lu Li said with a smile.

"Hmph——"

Kaido snorted coldly, "I don't need the love of the weak, I just need talented people to work for me, and I need strong soldiers to join my army."

"Okay, okay, that's fine, I've really 'wronged' Mr. Kaido today."

Lu Li smiled and said, "Now that Wano Country is on the right track, you only need to count money in the future."

Kaido nodded with satisfaction, "By the way, how much can my income increase?"

Lu Li estimated in his mind and said, "According to the current plan, by the end of this year, the monthly income should be ten times the previous one."

"So much!?"

Kaido was also shocked by this number. He originally thought that it would be enough to double or triple his income, but who knew that Lu Li told him that his income could increase tenfold.

If this goes on, wouldn't it be the equivalent of working for ten years in the past for one year?

"This is just the development stage. When all the infrastructure is ready, by the end of next year, it will not be a problem to increase the income twenty times."

Lu Li said, he was not kidding Kaido.

The current factory scale of Wano Country has expanded four times compared to before, and the original artificial devil fruit factory is also being renovated, and a new factory is being built. By the end of the year, the factory scale will expand five or six times compared to before.

After the craftsmen complete the training, they will go to the factory spontaneously as free workers. The production efficiency is not comparable to the previous slave situation. It can at least double. In general, the income of the factory can be ten times more than before.

As for raw materials, Wano Country is rich in minerals. Lu Li also let a considerable number of unemployed vagrants who have no skills, are older and are unwilling to accept new technologies to mine. The salary is also enough for them to eat, but it is definitely not as good as the factory.

After all, if the treatment of skilled people and unskilled people is the same, no one will want to go to the academy to study, which is not conducive to the cultivation of national talents.

Under the current basic situation, the factory will be further expanded, and by the end of next year, it will naturally earn more.

The population of Wano Country is not small. After he came to power, he asked people to recount the population. Now the population of Wano Country is about 80 million.

But how many factories did Kaido actually build before? There were only dozens of them, and the total number of workers was no more than 10,000, less than one-eight thousandth of the country.

In other words, Kaido did not use the labor force potential of this country at all.

If it is developed properly, according to Lu Li's plan, in a few years, Kaido's income will be more than a hundred times higher than before.
