Seeing their expressions, Oden felt a little embarrassed.

"How can you guys do such petty thefts!" He cursed, but what he did was not much better.

"These are just small problems. Although the laws of Jiuli are harsh, as long as you can pay the price, you can avoid jail. The crops you destroyed, the water wheels and other things you damaged are all paid for by me."

Xia Lin's words suddenly made Oden and others feel good.

But the next sentence was different.

"Compared to these insignificant economic losses, you guys rebelled against the army of Tenryo Bugyo and injured many people. This is the real serious matter!" Xia Lin said seriously, "Oden, you disregard the law, hurt people, and rebelled against the government army. These charges are enough to execute you."

"It was your people who came to cause trouble first!" Kin'emon said anxiously.

"It was you who violated the law first, otherwise why would the people of Tenryo Bugyo arrest you?" Xia Lin said, "Originally, Shutenmaru planned to lead the army to wipe you out as thieves, but I stopped him."

After all, Oden is the son of the general. What Xia Lin wants is to rule Wano Country, not to go to war with Wano Country.

Hearing this, Kin'emon and others also breathed a sigh of relief, but after thinking about it, they also came to their senses. The daimyo of Kuri would never do this.

"Kuri Daimyo, can you please advance the medical expenses of those wounded?" Oden said. He remembered that the injuries of those soldiers who were beaten back should not be very serious.

"That's no problem, but if you ask me to advance, how do you plan to repay it?" Xia Lin asked back, "As far as I know, you don't seem to have any source of income at all now? You know, there are quite a few wounded, and there are losses. I'm afraid there is no way to settle them without a thousand gold."

The currency of Wano Country is calculated in platinum, gold and silver. Among them, platinum is rare, and ordinary people often use gold and silver. The value of one silver is equivalent to one hundred Baileys a few decades later, and the value of gold is equivalent to ten thousand Baileys.

Unlike Bailey, which has been depreciating, the economy of Wano Country is a closed loop, and there is almost no depreciation or appreciation.

"You don't have to worry about that. I'm very strong and powerful. If I work, I can make money quickly."

"That's good. Mr. Oden, please stay in Jiuli to work until the debt is paid off. I will tell the servants to arrange a job for you." Xia Lin planned to let Oden work. Anyway, this guy has a lot of strength, how can he not make good use of it?

"And during this period of time, I will not provide you with any help. You have to take care of your own accommodation and meals."

Oden nodded. Anyway, he has been accustomed to sleeping in the open for the past two years, so this is nothing.

Compared with these, he wants to see Xia Lin's thoughts on founding a country.

This is actually a sensitive topic in Wano Country, but Oden has never had these concerns. He said bluntly: "I wonder what the Daimyo of Kuri thinks about the isolation of Wano Country?"

"I heard that you, Oden, have tried to go to sea 38 times so far, but all failed. Why, you haven't given up yet?" Xia Lin felt that he was pretending to be a good friend of Oden and talking freely.

This kind of disguise is not annoying to him. It's better to say that he enjoys it a little.

"I won't give up. This country is too restrictive. There is a wider world overseas. No matter what new things are possible. Aren't you curious?" Oden said excitedly.

"In fact, I have the same view. Standing still will only lead to self-destruction, but I am just the Daimyo of Kuri and there is no way to resist this ban that has lasted for a hundred years."

There is no need to hide this.

On the contrary, Oden was obviously very happy after hearing it. It was the first time he heard someone agree with his idea of ​​opening a country since he grew up.

Thinking of this, he was surprised and said, "In this case, after I pay off my debts, can I ask you to help me go abroad?"

However, Xia Lin shook his head: "Oden, going to sea is against the law. Do you want me, the daimyo of Kuri, to take the lead in breaking the law?"

Xia Lin said this deliberately. In fact, with the help of his becoming the daimyo of Kuri

With this advantage, Kurozumi Murasaki has traveled overseas several times. Although it is actually very difficult for Jiuli to go to sea, there is actually not much risk with Xia Lin using the Ame-no-Kume to help.

Xia Lin wanted to refuse Oden from going to sea, but in fact he just wanted to use this to make him work harder for him.

This guy will definitely become a pirate after going to sea. Logically speaking, after Oden joined the Whitebeard gang and robbed the treasure, he should have a share, but I don’t know where he spent it. It is estimated that he used it to have a banquet with others.

If Xia Lin helps the other party go to sea, then some of the money Oden got will have to be handed over to Xia Lin first. At the same time, Oden can also help collect devil fruits.

These are all considered as Xia Lin’s reward for helping him "take risks". Because of their positions, Xia Lin and Oden will undoubtedly become enemies. In this case, why not use this enemy’s hand to strengthen himself?

Devil fruits are Xia Lin’s primary goal, and the number of devil fruits in Wano Country is still too small.

Xia Lin's enemy is not just Oden. Sooner or later, Wano Country will be swept into the world's waves. He must be prepared for the threat that will come at that time.

"Oden, I can't help you break the law." Xia Lin said, "If the general knows that I sent his son to sea, he will definitely blame me for it.

"Although I am also curious about the overseas world, it is impossible for me to take risks."

Although he said so, Xia Lin put on an expression of insufficient benefits on his face, tempting Oden to continue persuading.

Xia Lin was not in a hurry to give in. Anyway, Oden had to stay in Jiuli and do hard labor for a few years.

After eating this meal, Xia Lin did not let Oden stay overnight, but sent them away.

He found a map and randomly drew a location, intending to let Oden stay there temporarily. Of course, land and houses cost money, and even the wood in the forest costs money. Oden has not paid off his debts, but his debts have become more.

"First, we need to buy wood to build houses. "Tenjiro calculated, "There is also money for food... Fortunately, the daimyo later lent us some money. Without money, it would be difficult to move around in Kuri."

At this point, Denjiro looked at Oden and said loudly: "Go work, Lord Oden!"
