Chapter 136

saint?

Or a demon?
It's just a title.

Luden didn't care what people thought of him.

More than [-] years ago, when he was walking on the streets of Qiyun, some people offered him flowers and fine wine, while others threw rotten eggs and bricks at him.

Luden didn't care.

He only cares about blessings.

"Set them up outside the city."

After Luden gave instructions to the coachman, he turned to look at the pregnant women, and said seriously,

"You can tell the people you know that all pregnant women, as long as they are commoners of the Divine State and those who have been approved by doctors, I am willing to help them into the Divine State and lend a helping hand to you during the orc attack.

However, there are three things to be clear up front. "

Luden is a very rigorous person. He is good at exploiting loopholes in the sacred code, and he naturally knows how to prevent others from getting stuck.

The pregnant women pricked up their ears and listened carefully to every word Mr. Luden said.

"First, all pregnant women must agree to my previous conditions."

Luden will let these children go to school for free, and when they are of working age, they will also work for Mr. Luden for five years.

Paid!

The pregnant women nodded in unison. No one would refuse such a good deed.

Luden raised his second finger,
"Secondly, the temporary residence fee for pregnant women and all expenses in Shenbang City need to be taken care of by themselves."

Lu Deng only agreed to rescue them into the Kingdom of God, but he didn't agree to provide food and shelter.

To put it bluntly, Lu Deng helped pregnant women to create a personality for himself and accumulate prestige.

Pregnant women save a life, and both parties get what they need, which is fair and reasonable.

Luden is a very measured person, always maintaining the balance between the two ends of the scale.

He will not pay less than one miso, nor will he pay one more miso.

It's fair.

The pregnant women continued to nod, not feeling that there was anything wrong.

"Third, the final interpretation of this contract is in my hands. After I have fulfilled my obligations, I can choose to contact the contract at any time."

Relying on the third point, Luden avoided all legal risks.

The pregnant women had no objection to these three points, and quickly agreed, for fear that Luden would go back on his word.

After setting up the pregnant woman, Lu Deng took another carriage and returned to the city of Shenbang in a low-key manner.

He didn't go back to the small building, but went directly to the lucky newspaper office.

Bart, with a pale face and bandages on his hands, went out to meet Luden.

His condition is better than before.

Luden paid off all the debts for him, avoiding the tragic fate of Bart's family going bankrupt.

Of course, this money will be deducted from Bart's future salary.

Bart reported,
"Mr. Luden, according to your instructions, the first edition of the newspaper has been printed and is being dried and finalized. It will be distributed to various dinner parties tonight."

This is not the first time Luden has used newspapers.

Before, at the Fubao Exchange, he had sold small slips of inside information, which was the prototype of a newspaper.

However, the Fubao Exchange is now deserted, and the surviving rich people change their faces when they hear about it, and naturally there is no market for inside information.

Coupled with the high cost of paper and ink nowadays, even with movable type printing, the cost of each newspaper is not low!
Running a newspaper is a pure loss-making business.

Even so, Luden still went to the Greedy Palace to register, let Bart put his name on it, got a few scholars from University Scholar Six, and set up the Lucky Newspaper.

The pen kills, sometimes without blood.

Luden glanced at the newspaper. According to his request, one-third of the page was used to introduce the story of Luden saving the pregnant woman.

One-third of the page is telling jokes about the Senate.

The rest of the page is to write some news about the peach side, interesting things about Shenbang, and romantic affairs.
Lu Deng did not intend to sell the first batch of newspapers, but sent them to various dinner parties of the Holy Family, allowing people to receive them for free.

Once members of the Holy Family get used to reading newspapers, other middle-class and wealthy businessmen will naturally flock to them.

"good."

Luden put the newspaper aside, this was just part of the public opinion offensive, it was the icing on the cake.

"The portrait you ordered is also done."

Bart led Luden to an oil painting and showed him:
In the oil painting, Luden rode on horseback, like a savior, rescuing the pregnant woman from several guards, and the admiration of the surrounding crowd was vividly expressed on the paper.

This oil painting took the artist three days of work, and it was produced in a hurry.

There is indeed something.

But only a little.

As Party A, Lu Deng began to provide revision suggestions,
"First of all, don't ride on horseback, but stand on the ground. The clothes can't be so gorgeous, change to something plain, just like the common people around you, just wear a white toga."

The image Luden wants to create is that of a hero among the common people.

A knight on a fine horse?
That is the hero of the Holy See, the hero of the gentlemen.

rather than civilians.

"The hair is messy, and the eyes are deeper. By the way, the holy family badge on the carriage has been removed."

After Lu Deng finished his comments on his revision, he pointed to the guard on the oil painting and said,

"Let the guards put up their spears and make an attack. I spread my arms and protect the pregnant woman. People around me should not worship, but should be frightened and fearful. Run away, and draw a thief stealing things in disorder."

Listening to Luden's revised opinion, Bart showed embarrassment and said bluntly,
"Mr. Luden, if you change it like this, it is equivalent to painting a new oil painting. Not only will it take more time, but you will also have to pay again."

Luden nodded and said briskly,
"Miso is not a problem."

Although he has always been frugal, when it is time to spend money, he is never stingy.

What's more, this matter is related to Luden's election for tribune!

Such an important event, what happened to the extra money? !

Luden went back to ask Pang for reimbursement!
Lu Deng suddenly felt that he should set up a campaign fund and find a group of people to collect donations
"One more thing, Mr. Luden."

Bart said embarrassingly,

"That's not how it was at the scene, I mean, the guards, who didn't raise their spears, didn't even have any hostility, painted like that...wouldn't it be nice?"

Luden casually dismissed Bart's doubts,

"This is called artistic processing! Do you understand artistic processing!

Besides, we never said that this is what actually happened!

By the way, add a baby to the pregnant woman, let the mother cry to feed the child."

In this way, the shock of the picture is even higher.

Bart frowned and asked puzzledly,
"Mr. Luden, if someone pursues it by then, we may be in trouble."

For this, Luden had already had countermeasures.

"It's ok."

Lu Deng said with confidence,

"We can publish an apology in the newspaper, right in the corner, saying that due to negligence at work, this situation has been caused, we express our regret and apology, and we have made rectification, remember, don't promise never to do it again."

Bart didn't know what to say anymore.

What Mr. Luden meant was straightforward.

Don't promise never to do it again.

Because, they really do do it again.

Let a newspaper give up lying, cheating, concealing, misleading.
So what's left of it?
Is it a blank sheet of paper?

The matter of the Lucky News Agency was quickly dealt with, and Lu Deng's work efficiency has always been very high.

He will give clear instructions and assign the right people to the right jobs.

He can allow his subordinates to make mistakes, and clearly divides powers and responsibilities. He will neither let his subordinates take the blame, nor let his subordinates evade their responsibilities.

Working under Luden, happiness and pain coexist.

The happy place is that Luden is very good at tapping people's potential, and at the same time is willing to give people room to display, and give extremely generous rewards.

There is only one pain point: too curly!
Like a tireless Mr. Rudden, he demanded the undivided attention of everyone at work.

We must be worthy of every miso that Luden paid!

After leaving the Lucky News Agency, Luden returned to the mine and checked the preparations for several key matters.

Now, he only needs to wait for the blockade of Shenbang, a large number of civilians will pour into Shenbang, and the mine can start working!

At that time, there will be a large number of unemployed civilians, and they are willing to do any job in order to survive the most difficult time in Godland!

They only need simple training, and they can go to work and start mining.

Returning from the mine, Luden's coachman changed to a third person, and even the horses could not bear the high-intensity work.

Roll brutes are tired.

Lu Deng didn't stop his steps, and while eating dinner, he ordered the coachman to go to the largest slave market in the city.

When he arrived, groups of slaves walked out of the city. The faces of the slave owners were ashen, and they were in a bad mood.

The Kingdom of God is about to be blocked, and he does not have enough food, so these slaves must be released from the city.

According to the slave owner's idea, these guys are their own property.

Even if there is no way to feed them, you can kill them and feed other slaves.

However, Shenbang is slavery, not cannibalism.

In other words, although Shenbang also eats people, it does not eat people in such a naked way.

The Palace of Greed asked the slave owners to send the slaves who could not feed themselves out of the kingdom of God and return them to freedom.

If these slaves can survive the orc attack, they will no longer be slaves, and after paying a fee, they can become commoners of the Kingdom of God.

Of course, if they were unlucky and captured by the Legion, or captured by someone, they were still slaves.

When the slave owner saw Lu Deng, his eyes lit up and he greeted him warmly.

"Mr. Luden, my old friend, what brings you here, I have some good little boys here, would you like to have a look?"

Luden: .
No matter how he explained it, the slave master believed that Luden had a special interest in little boys.

He is not that kind of person!
Seeing Luden's expression, the slave owner immediately understood, smiled "I understand", patted his chest and said,

"No matter what you buy today, as long as you spend 1 big gold coin, I will give you a few little boys!"

Anyway, if these little guys stay with me, they have no other use than wasting food.

The really handsome little boy was bought by the believers of Aisheng a long time ago.

Aisheng, you will never do anything bad!

Lu Deng was too lazy to talk nonsense with the other party, so he said straight to the point,
"I want to buy slaves, elves, dwarves, any non-human slaves, do you have any here?"

This is one of the largest slave markets in Shenbang. If he doesn't have it here, it will be even harder for others to have one.

"I don't have it here, but I know where it is."

The slave owner didn't give an answer immediately, but hesitated.

The acquaintance between him and Luden was not pleasant, and they even had disputes.

However, during the Fu Bao contract transaction, Mr. Lu Deng sent someone to contact the slave owner and told him that he could use the surplus grain to exchange for Miso at the Fu Bao Exchange.

With this incident, the slave owner made a fortune!
The little grievances and grievances with Lu Deng naturally disappeared, and they even regarded Lu Deng as a true friend, and they didn't know each other without a fight.

"Mr. Luden, listen to my advice and give up this idea."

The slave owner had deep eyes and said quietly,

"These foreign bastards will only bring you misfortune and disaster."
