That evening, Wang Bin sat alone on the rooftop, deep in thought.
No one dared to disturb him, but it was getting late, and they were a little worried about Wang Bin, not wanting him to shoulder everything alone.
"Princess Miao, the King listens to you the most. Why don't you go and try to persuade him?"
"Okay, you don't need to worry, I'll go up and check on him."
Miao Ruyun agreed and went to the rooftop alone. She quietly sat down next to Wang Bin and didn't say anything. She just tilted her head and rested it on Wang Bin's shoulder.
Wang Bin was brought back to his senses by Miao Ruyun's leaning against him, and he smiled as he looked at Miao Ruyun.
"We might have to go it alone, are you scared?"
"Don't be afraid. As long as you're here, I'm not afraid of anything. Xiaoyue and Yuanyuan will also support you wholeheartedly!"
"It seems I've made everyone worry. Come on, let's go down and talk about my plan."
Miao Ruyun obediently agreed, then stood up, took Wang Bin's arm, and walked into the house.
Everyone laughed when they saw Wang Bin and Miao Ruyun come in.
“I’m sorry to have worried you all. Come on over, let me tell you about my plan.” Wang Bin said, gathering everyone together. Once everyone was present, he continued, “Based on my visits over the past few days, I’ve discovered that none of the forces in Haidu are sincere about cooperating. They only care about their immediate interests and don’t care at all about the survival of humanity.”
“Even if we go to other gatherings, we will only encounter the same problem. They will just pass the buck from one to another. No one really cares about the survival of humanity. So I think we can only do this on our own!”
"We are no match for Saint King-level zombies right now, so we need more survivors to strengthen our forces."
"Since we can't take away the major forces in Haidu, let's cut off their supply lines and bring all the survivors of Haidu's organization back to our camp."
"Your Majesty, your idea is good, but how can we get people to our side?"
"Before we came here, I had someone compile and edit together the videos we had filmed before. Why don't we take a look at the results first?"
After Wang Bin finished speaking, he summoned a laptop and a projector, plugged in a USB drive, and everyone watched curiously.
The video begins with people shouting as they flee Fuzhou. At that moment, everyone looks disheveled and depressed.
The convoy then stopped to rest near the valley, where they stumbled upon it. Everyone's faces lit up with smiles as they decided to settle down there.
People cut down the trees around the valley to build houses and cultivate countless fertile fields. High city walls were also built around the valley.
Before long, the valley camp was established, filled with golden wheat and various vegetables and fruits, and people began to live a happy life...
The scene continued until Wang Bin ascended the throne and held a grand banquet, at which point it ended.
"What do you guys think of this video?" Wang Bin asked with a smile.
"That's fantastic! If we promote this video, I think the vast majority of people will follow us!"
"That's right, who wouldn't be happy to let them live a happy life with food and shelter!"
"Your Majesty, do you think other forces might come to stop us?"
“There will definitely be attempts to stop us, but we don’t need to worry at all. We made a name for ourselves in that battle, and they all know that we now have two King-level superhumans. Even if they dare to make a move against us, they’ll have to think twice about their strength. Unless they can unite all their forces, they can’t stand up to us. But the biggest families, the Qian family and the Sea King Gang, are irreconcilable enemies, and it would be very difficult for them to unite. Even if they do unite, we can just have a fight!”
"That's right, we're not afraid they'll give us the ball; if necessary, we'll fight them!"
“Haidu is different from Fuzhou. They set up their trading venue in the city center. We will also open a store in the city center tomorrow and play our video. I think it will attract a lot of people.”
"Yes, yes, let's follow the king's plan. I estimate that it won't be long before there are no more idle survivors in this sea city. Let's see how they survive!"
After this discussion, the matter was settled.
The next morning, Wang Bin took some of the money to the city center, paid the administrator a thousand magic cores, and rented a nice shop.
After a flurry of activity, everyone got the shop ready in just over an hour. Wang Bin summoned a large quantity of food for everyone to put on the shelves, and everything was ready to open for business before noon.
Wang Bin printed some more flyers and had people distribute them. Before long, people came over with flyers asking if the prices on them were real.
"Boss, you're not lying to us, are you? Twenty magic cores can be exchanged for a pound of rice?"
"That's right, twenty magic cores can be exchanged for one kilogram of rice, and all the prices listed are real."
"Great! Other merchants require thirty magic cores to exchange for one pound of rice. Your rice isn't of poor quality, or it might be mixed with sand or something, right?"
"Don't worry about that. Our rice is of very high quality, and we have it in stock right here. You can inspect the goods first, and then redeem it if you're satisfied!"
"Wow, the quality of your rice is truly amazing! It's pure white and free of any impurities. Okay, give me five pounds!"
"Okay, please follow me!"
After looking at the rice in the bag, the man immediately took out one hundred magic cores and bought five catties of rice.
Just as he finished buying the rice and was about to leave, he spotted a video playing on the screen hanging on the wall. His eyes widened at the sight of the golden rice paddies and various kinds of vegetables in the valley.
"Is your rice grown here?"
"That's right, it's grown here. People living in our country have enough to eat every day, and they don't have to worry about zombie attacks..."
Wang Bin watched as one of his subordinates introduced the video to the customer, who listened with a look of longing on his face. He was very happy; it seemed his plan might succeed.
"The people who live there are so lucky!" the customer exclaimed.
"That's right. Our king is right here now. If you want to move in with us, you can. Just fill out a form, and we'll take you there in a while."
"Is it really as good as you say?"
"It's not just me saying this, it's the truth. If you don't believe me, look at the video above. Look at Wangyue Peak, which is our current residence, and look down at all those lush green fields..."
“That’s great, I’ll discuss it with my husband.”
"No rush, we'll be back in a long time, you can take your time to think it over!"
The customer nodded in agreement and immediately carried the rice in a cloth bag, hurrying home.
