Chapter 384: Shave your hair and change clothes(1/2)

"Sir Eric!" Hiyori hurriedly walked to Eric: "Should we discuss the matter of changing the name of Wano Country to Hanazhi Country?"

"I am ready to let the country of Hua be founded." Eric turned to Hiyori and said: "Changing the country of Wano, which has been closed to the country for eight hundred years, is a symbol of separation from the previous national conditions!"

"Then we can't change the country's name easily!" Denjiro looked excited: "Wano Country is...!"

"Are you going to talk about those useless principles again?" Eric sighed: "Then let the people of the Kingdom of China choose for themselves!"

"What?" Hiyori was stunned: "Sir Eric, what do you mean?"

"I am planning to hold a referendum in three months." Eric declared loudly: "Let the people of China choose the name of their country!"

"What is a referendum?" People in various regions are talking about it.

As if explaining to the people, Eric held up a piece of paper and explained: "A referendum is when people over the age of 18 vote. If they agree to change the name of the country, write "yes" on this piece of paper; if they disagree, write "disapproval".

I will distribute this kind of paper uniformly during the voting in a few months."

"Leave the right of choice to all adults." Eric turned to ask Hiyori: "Princess Hiyori, do you think this decision is okay?"

"..." After a long silence, Hiyori finally nodded: "If this is the wish of all the people, I will agree to it."

"What about those minors?" Denjiro frowned: "They are also members of Wano Country!"

"The decision-making of minors will be affected by their parents and elders." Eric glanced at him: "They have not yet formed the correct outlook on life, and may make wrong choices. You should have made many mistakes when you were young.

Bad thing, right?"

"..." Denjiro was suddenly at a loss for words.

""——Did you buy the wrong thing? This cauldron costs 60 silver?"

"Well, can the 30 silver pot I just bought be worth the 30 silver?" young Denjiro asked.

"Well, of course."

"Well, I gave you 30 silver when I bought the pot at the beginning, and adding this pot, the total is 60 silver." Denjiro smiled and said, "Give me the big pot instead."

"Okay, thank you for your patronage!" The shopkeeper readily asked Denjiro to take away the big pot.

Denjiro, who cheated the shop owner of 30 silver, laughed out loud: "Hee hee..."』



"Look around you!" Eric shouted loudly, pointing to the chimney that was emitting black smoke in the distance and standing on the rock: "Because of the relationship between the Black Carbon Orochi and Kaido, Wano is now everywhere

It's a factory, with countless black smoke spraying into the sky..."

"Undrinkable water, dominated rations, ruined towns, and parched earth!"

"I promise here to make the river clear, make the land fertile, and make the people rich!"

"Starting from tomorrow, I will recruit people to dismantle the factory, clean up the polluted river water, and sort out the ruins of the dilapidated buildings!" Eric continued: "I will pay you fifteen silver a day!"

"Oh!" the people of Jiuli Broken Town cheered loudly. In the past, they worked exhaustingly at Da She's Taoyuan Farm to earn five silver dollars, which was not even enough for the whole family's water bill for a week. The new ruler immediately gave

They tripled their wages.

(The currencies of Wano are platinum, gold, and silver. Since no specific conversion ratio is given, I wrote based on my own inference, platinum::1000; gold::100; according to the sumo competition reward is "if you can defeat

Urashima, you can get your dream 500 gold." If the ratio of platinum to gold is 1:100, then he just said 5 platinum.)

"In addition, given that many people live in poverty, they may not have the strength to work, nor do they have clothes to keep out the cold, so -" Eric paused and continued: "I decided to buy your hair in exchange for your shabby clothes!"

"Tomorrow I will set up 'sending and receiving stations' at specific locations in each region. Children can get 50 silver for a haircut, and 1 gold for an adult's haircut!" Eric continued: "Two damaged clothes can be exchanged for a brand new one.

clothes!"

"What? Is this true?!" The residents of Caishen Town looked down at their old clothes full of patches and their thin and yellow arms due to malnutrition.

"Sir Eric?!" Hiyori opened her eyes wide: "This is a lot of money, I, I don't have that much money!"

"No, I will pay for all this." Eric smiled and said, "After all, it was my idea."

"You would be so kind to give money to people?" Denjiro narrowed his eyes: "What on earth are you planning?"

"What do you think I can do if I spend 1 gold to buy hair that is not worth a penny?" Eric spread his hands: "I just hope that those poor people have money to eat and a place to sleep."

Denjiro: "..."

"I hope Mr. Denjiro can introduce us to some skilled barbers." Eric asked with a smile: "Isn't this just a piece of cake for a gangster boss?"

"...Within one hour, I will find 100 barbers."

"Thank you very much!" Eric thanked: "I also want to teach them how to get a haircut. Please recruit all the people as soon as possible."

Denjiro looked back at Hiyori.

"Denjiro, it's fine if I stay here." Hiyori smiled slightly: "Sir Eric will take good care of me."

Denjiro bowed his head and accepted the order: "I'll take my leave first."

Eric then announced to the image bug: "Starting from 8 o'clock tomorrow morning, in the Flower Capital and Caishen Town; Boluo Town in Jiuli; and Blade Dance Port in Baiwu, a week-long haircut and clothing changing activities will be carried out simultaneously.

!”



After the speech ended, Leonardo da Vinci and Chiron pulled Eric aside.

"Brother Captain?" Da Vinci smirked and approached Eric: "Tell me, it's easy to pay for a haircut, but how can we replace old clothes with new ones? We don't have that many clothes and fabrics!"

"Hehe~" Eric clasped his hands together: "This matter can only be troubled by Da Vinci's kiss~"

"Leave such a troublesome matter to me?" Da Vinci said angrily: "I am not Doraemon's fourth-dimensional pocket!"

"Yo~" Eric was stunned: "Da Vinci himself has watched this anime?"

"Don't talk nonsense." Da Vinci crossed his shoulders: "What on earth are we going to do about this matter?"

"Captain, what you promised is too troublesome. Even if we work overnight, we can't finish so many clothes!" Chiron also said with a headache: "On the first day when I became the ruler of Wano Country, I couldn't fulfill my promise. Dawn Sea

The reputation of the thieves group will drop to negative value!"

"Can't you make clothes with your magic?" Eric tilted his head: "Obviously Leonardo da Vinci is related to a magician."

"Magic is not such a convenient thing!" Leonardo da Vinci roared: "What do you think of a magician?"

"But..." Eric changed the topic: "If a magician can't do it, but with the ability to swallow fruits, plus Da Vinci's brain, he can definitely do it!"

"Huh?" Da Vinci was stunned.

"Da Vinci's Noble Phantasm ersale is a product that embodies the legendary omnipotence and can analyze objects instantly." Eric explained: "With Da Vinci's knowledge, Noble Phantasm, and the Tunton Fruit

With the ability, we can definitely create machines that can dismantle clothes and sew clothes!"

"Yes." Da Vinci suddenly realized: "Is it because following Eric for too long that the brain's reaction has slowed down?"

"Hello!"

Chiron nodded and said: "The captain actually considered this level."

"But..." Da Vinci looked at Eric with some confusion: "I always feel that Eric's policy on haircuts and changing clothes is not as simple as it seems."

"Shave your hair and change your clothes." The knowledgeable Chiron immediately thought: "This is a method that the ruler came up with in order to consolidate his rule. Changing the hairstyle and clothing of Wano will then change the country's deep-rooted thoughts."

"That's right." Eric admitted: "I don't want to implement this policy too brutally. I can only use the economy to implement it starting from the people at the bottom."

"But those rich people will still keep their current hairstyle." Chiron's clairvoyance scanned almost every corner of the Flower City: "There will definitely be class divisions in the future."

"After two years of tax exemption..." Eric slowly said his plan: "Our rule will be more stable, and we will also start collecting taxes..."

"That's it." Chiron immediately understood what his captain meant before Eric finished speaking: "People with different hairstyles will pay different proportions of taxes, relying on the economy to suppress these rich people, thereby forcing them to change their hairstyles and clothing.

?”

"good."

Da Vinci looked Eric up and down, looking back and forth: "I didn't expect that the innocent boy in the past has now turned into a sinister and cunning politician."

"Hey!" Eric sighed: "Aren't I afraid of causing trouble?"

"What trouble will happen?"

Eric opened his mouth, wondering whether he should tell something about the future.

Chiron chuckled upon seeing this, breaking up the slightly heavy atmosphere around him: "Da Vinci, as long as we know that Eric will become a wise king and can govern the country and people well."

"That's right." Da Vinci stopped asking: "After all, there are only a few people in the world, no, maybe in the entire history of mankind, who take the initiative to distribute money and clothing to the poor."

"Thank you for trusting me." Eric thanked him.

"We have been with you for three years." Chiron smiled and said: "I firmly believe that you will embark on the right path. You are such a person."

Eric implored: "Please also ask Teacher Chiron to continue to teach me and spur me on this road full of thorns."

Chiron smiled and said: "This is my honor."

"In addition, Captain, although we have a lot of baileys here, it seems that gold and silver have been used as currency here, and baileys are not applicable." Chiron raised another question: "The gold stolen from the Kingdom of Flowers

It may not be enough.”

"Oh, you're talking about this." Eric took out a broken golden pillar from the inventory. The huge golden pillar almost filled the entire room: "Isn't this enough?" (Chapter 35, Temporary
