Chapter 721: A Little Person's Experience
Dudu was originally a low-level younger brother under "David Dai" Liangzi. A few days ago, he was suddenly received by King David Dai. This made this idle person in society who usually only bullied ordinary people and was used as a punching bag by the big brother from time to time flattered, and he felt that his chance to make a fortune had come.
When Dodo arrived at Yoshiko's palace, he found that four other low-level followers were summoned at the same time as him.
"Do you know why I summoned you?" Liangzi sat on the tall golden chair, and his 300-pound fat body almost crushed the chair.
"I am stupid and don't understand the king's deep meaning."
Dudu swallowed nervously and shook his head like the other four.
"You all know what happened recently on Ula'ula Island, right? There's this outsider named Yang Paopao who gathered a bunch of hungry, rebellious people and actually dared to rebel against me! To win over the people, this hypocritical villain actually gave those poor people land and wages, and even returned their Pokémon to them. It's outrageous!"
Huh? So Yang Paopao even paid the commoners? Dudu marveled inwardly. He had worked under David Dai for so long without receiving a single cent in salary, relying solely on plundering the commoners to survive. And yet, this Yang Paopao not only paid them, but also distributed his own land to the poor. Where in the world could one find such a good king?
However, despite his thoughts, Dudu still agreed: "This guy is such a jerk! Doesn't he know that all the humans and Pokémon on this land are the private property of the kings? The kings' wealth is sacred and inviolable! As long as the kings give us food and allow us to survive on their land, it's already a great honor!"
"Yes, yes, the king's kindness is not over yet!"
"That Yang Paopao actually dared to break the rules of our Ula'ula Island. His crime is unforgivable!"
The others were also smart people and immediately agreed.
"Very good, you all have a high level of awareness." Liangzi nodded with satisfaction. "I called you here this time to send you to deal with Yang Paopao. The five of you, with my orders, go undercover among Yang Paopao's men and report his movements to me. If you complete the mission well, I will reward you handsomely. From now on, you will be my trusted confidants, enjoying the best of life."
Dudu's eyes lit up when he heard there was a reward, but he became nervous again when he thought about how Yang Paopao's men would punish him if he was discovered as an undercover agent. The other four looked at each other in bewilderment. Although they all longed for the reward, they also knew that this mission would be difficult.
"Don't panic. Yang Paopao is in urgent need of manpower. He even accepts those starving ghosts who don't have Pokémon and gives them initial Pokémon. It's not difficult for you guys to sneak in." Liangzi coaxed.
Dudu was still hesitant, but when he saw the other four people kneeling down and shouting "We are willing to serve the king", he had no choice but to bite the bullet and kneel down as well.
"Very good. After this is done, you will have wealth and glory." Liangzi laughed with satisfaction.
A few days later, Dudu and his group of five arrived at the city that Yang Ming had just occupied.
After thinking about it all night, Dudu still decided to help David Dai deal with Yang Paopao. In his opinion, David Dai had ruled the city of Maliejing for a long time, and all the rebels had been executed by him in an extremely cruel way during this period. It was impossible for such a person to be overthrown.
"Since I can't resist, I'll take Yang Paopao's head in exchange for wealth and glory in my next life." Dudu thought to himself.
When they arrived at Yang Paopao's territory, they found it completely different from the serene city of Malie, ruled by Liangzi. Malie, the oldest city on Ula'ula Island, had been reduced to poverty under Liangzi's rule, with starving people and beggars everywhere. Liangzi's soldiers ran rampant, looting the citizens' property at will, and brutally suppressing any resistance with Pokémon. Since all the Pokémon in Malie had been confiscated by Lord David, the civilians had no power to resist.
Even he himself was one of these soldiers.
Look here again. Although it is just a small town and its wealth cannot be compared with that of the quiet city of Marie, the streets here are very clean, people wear neat clothes, and their faces are glowing. It is like another world.
And then, Dudu saw something extraordinary again.
He saw an 80-year-old man shouting in the street, selling the fruits he grew himself.
Oh my god! How dare someone sell valuables in public?! Dudu was shocked.
In the quiet city of Malie, even if you take out a piece of bread or an apple on the street, you will be blackmailed by the soldiers. Even if you are lucky enough not to encounter any soldiers, those hungry homeless people will come to you after smelling the smell.
In this situation, people cannot conduct transactions openly and can only do so through the underground black market, accepting extremely high commissions.
By the way, all the underground black markets in Maliejing City are also owned by King David Dai.
"Young man, would you like to try the blue tangerines that I just picked? Although they are not very sweet, they can definitely fill your stomach." Seeing Dudu in a daze on the street, the old man immediately called him over.
Dudu looked at the blue tangerine fruit in his hand as if he was dreaming.
"Young man, you're from the north, aren't you?" the old man said enthusiastically. "You can tell by your clothes. It's a mess out there. Today, I saw a dozen people from the north. They were all dressed in tattered clothes like you, looking like beggars."
"Old man, you have good eyesight. I did escape here from the north," Dudu nodded. "But I'm wondering, old man, has this place always been like this?"
"How could that be?" The old man shook his head. "A little over a month ago, this place was much like the north, ruled by various great kings. You know how useless the kings' soldiers are. If it weren't for my grandson's young age, I would have fled south too."
"But later, the soldiers of King Chaos killed the original king and drove all his soldiers away," the old man sighed. "Unlike other kings, King Chaos is a good man. He actually gave all the land and food occupied by the original king to us poor people without asking for a penny himself. He also didn't ask us for a penny. This is the first time I have ever seen such a king in my life."
"Oh? Who is the King of Chaos?" Dudu asked curiously.
Han lowered his voice and said, "I heard that Lord Chaos King's name is Yang Ming, and he's from out of town. But you just need to know this name in your heart, but don't call him by his name. The young people in this town are all supporters of Lord Chaos King. If you call him by his name, they will beat you up."
Yang Ming? Isn't that Yang Paopao's real name?! Dudu was stunned. He had never imagined that his goal this time would be to manage an entire town in perfect order.
