Chapter 34 Three Promises

 The faces of the refugees were a little ugly. Many people felt that the new guardian had more troublesome requirements, or that he wanted to punish them for being lazy and slippery.

Jiang Cha looked at Fang Du, who was almost "submerged" in the crowd, and turned his head. He stretched out his right hand, and a small but quite thick dragon's blood tree rose up where Fang Du was standing.

Fang Du stood on the Dragon Blood Tree like this, casting an approving glance at Jiang Cha, and then looking down at the dozens of people below.

He cleared his throat and said loudly for everyone to hear:

"What I am going to say next about your future also represents the new rules in this farmland!"

Looking at the still numb faces, Fang Du took a deep breath.

Refugees are not stupid, but that does not mean they are not ignorant.

Stupidity is a kind of prejudice. And ignorance is just stating the facts.

No matter in any era, apart from the most basic food and clothing, information from society or nature is a person's most precious resource.

The living environment of these refugees living in slums determines that they do not have the energy and conditions to pay attention to things other than keeping themselves fed.

They don't know what magical crops will be grown on this farmland now, nor do they know how beneficial the crops will be to them when they mature.

Therefore, talking to them about ideals, the future, and the development of protected areas is a complete hooliganism!

"Everyone, let me introduce myself first. I am a partner of the Guardian and have an equal relationship with your leader Li Junqi."

Fang Du said loudly: "We are opening up new farmland, and new farmland will have new rules, so I am here to announce three things."

"First, winter is approaching and we need to speed up the progress.

In order to ensure that everyone can devote themselves to work, starting from today, the guardian will double the number of nutrition bars and water distributed to everyone present, and everyone can receive two tomatoes every day!"

The crowd below was slightly commotion, but the commotion was not obvious.

Based on Li Junqi's past kindness and generosity, many people have guessed that the Guardian will improve their treatment.

Fang Du continued:

"Second, everyone present has the opportunity to become a regular employee of the farm. We will release a series of tasks in the future. As long as you complete the tasks and make a cumulative contribution, you can become a regular employee after meeting the standards."

"After becoming a formal worker, all basic benefits are aligned with those of a guardian. As long as you work in the farmland for more than one year, you can get an independent house on the periphery of the protected area, or an independent room in the core area!"

This time, the commotion among the refugees turned into an irrepressible discussion.

Becoming a regular employee - this is a very difficult thing in a protected area.

Guardians do not raise idlers. In the past era, guardians other than those with superpowers were all high-level government officials or senior technicians, farmers, and professors.

Becoming a regular employee means that life and safety are guaranteed, which is what every refugee dreams of.

As for the houses - they just regard them as the pie that Fang Du painted for them.

Fang Du did not give the refugees time to discuss, but directly stated the third item.

"Third, the tents and fences set up today, as well as the subsequent work of digging drainage ditches, are the first tasks I assign to you."

"I will let Miss Huaji supervise your work. The first person who is qualified to complete his task will be given a reward."

As he spoke, Fang Du took out something round and round from his pocket and raised it high.

"This is my master's masterpiece, a fruit that can give people supernatural powers.

This fruit is called ‘Source of Fire’. Although it is only the lowest first-level fruit, any one of you who eats it can gain the ability to shoot fireballs!”

"I swear on my superpower core that everything I just said is absolutely true!"

After saying these words, Fang Du didn't care about the reaction below, jumped down from the dragon blood tree and came to Jiang Cha's side.

"Is it really okay for you to reveal your superpower fruit like this?" Jiang Cha tilted his head and asked.

"It doesn't matter."

Fang Du shook his head: "Everything is handled by my 'master'. Unless the government and others dare to invade the poisonous land, no one will dare to think about the superpower fruit."

"If even the poisonous place has been captured, there is actually no point in not exposing it."

The refugees gathered around the small dragon blood tree were stunned for a moment, and then shouted and rushed towards the seemingly completed camp.

They are going to re-strengthen the project that was lazy and slippery before, and re-strengthen the nails and ropes!

For them, everything else is not important, and they do not believe that a guardian of Hua Ji's level will really help them calculate their workload seriously.

They only know one thing - super powers!

As long as they finish the work first and meet Fang Du's requirements, they may gain superpowers!

Just as Fang Du thought - only when it is really related to the interests that people desire most, will people be motivated to the greatest extent.

Looking at the refugees running away in a swarm, Hua Ji felt a little dizzy.

She first produced vine eyes according to Fang Du's request, and then walked up to Fang Du and asked with a little disbelief:

"You...are you telling the truth just now? Can this fruit really give people superpowers?"

Fang Du tossed the "Silver Armor" fruit and smiled faintly: "It's not as magical as you think. This fruit can only give a very small part of a complete superpower."

"A fruit is of little use to you and me, but to those refugees... let alone work, they would be willing to trade it with their lives."

Hua Ji closed her eyes and took a long time to absorb this shocking news.

Then he said with a wry smile: "According to your calculation, with the gradual opening up of farmland, I am afraid that half of the people in the reserve will become such 'artificial superpowers'."

"Isn't this good?" Fang Du said with a smile.

Based on her own thinking habits as a guardian, Hua Ji feels that this seems to be inconvenient to manage.

But from the perspective of the refugees and the entire protected area, Hua Ji felt that this seemed to be a good idea, which put her into a conflict.

On the contrary, Jiang Cha thought: "According to my observation, the evolution or development speed of human superpowers is far weaker than that of extraordinary beasts and extraordinary plants."

"If we don't find a way to improve human combat effectiveness, I'm afraid the human species will cease to exist in a few years."

Fang Du was stunned, thinking that this little girl was always silly, how could she say such profound words at this time?
