Chapter 18 Problem Solving



"I understand." Gardino agreed weakly with a bitter face. He just couldn't understand it.

How could he, a senior secret agent of the Baroque Agency, suddenly become a tool?

After squatting down and pressing his hands on the ground, the desert on the ground began to be assimilated into candles, spreading continuously around the edge of the artificial lake.

The entire artificial lake seems to be covered with a white scarf, which looks very beautiful.

Considering the huge area of ​​the artificial lake, Gardino finally completed the task assigned by his boss after spending more than an hour.

Gardino immediately breathed a sigh of relief and collapsed to the ground, feeling powerless.

At this moment, Doto, with a happy face, supported by others, brought the people of Juba back to Luo Heng.

"Master Crocodile, thank you for everything you have done for the Yuba people."

"We, the people of Judah, will remember your kindness for generations to come."

As he said this, he knelt down in front of Luo Heng again. Seeing this, the people behind him also followed Duotuo and knelt down to the ground.

Luo Heng couldn't help but be moved when he saw this. What simple people they were.

Theoretically, these people are all his Luo Heng's people.

"Everyone, please get up. Solving the water problem for everyone today is just the beginning."

"As long as you are willing to believe in me and follow my footsteps."

"All the citizens of Alabasta will not only have endless water to drink, but will also have endless money to spend and endless good days to enjoy."

Influenced by these simple people, Luo Heng couldn't help but feel a surge of pride in his heart, and he made a grand ambition in front of everyone.

"We are willing to follow Crocodile-sama until death!"

"Long live Lord Crocodile!"

The people excitedly followed suit and echoed loudly.

"There is one more thing I want to make clear to everyone: the country is currently unable to help you rebuild your homes due to limited funds and capabilities."

"This country has no pillar industries, so the economy has been unable to develop."

"I plan to rebuild an international metropolis in the coastal area."

"This city will drive the development of our country's tourism and trade, and then use the profits to benefit the entire country."

"I know Juba was once a trading city, but now I hope that those here who understand business, or those who are willing to leave, will come with me to build this new city."

"For the rest of you who don't want to leave, please be patient and give the country some time. We will not forget you, and we will not forget Juba."

After Luo Heng finished speaking, the people of Juba looked at each other and began to discuss in a low voice.

Luo Heng did not interrupt, but just quietly observed their reactions.

After waiting for a long time, Doto finally spoke on behalf of everyone: "Lord Crocodile, we ordinary people don't understand economics and trade."

"We only know that you, sir, have brought us water and hope for life. We, the Juba people, will fully support whatever decisions you make."

"An old, weak, and disabled person like me no longer has much strength to help you, sir. Let the young people of Juba go with you."

Luo Heng paused for a moment before saying, "Okay, you guys make some preparations in Yuba first. Once we've determined the exact location, we'll arrange transportation to pick you up."

"Everyone can rest assured that everyone who goes there will have their own new home and a decent job."

Luo Heng's words made many young people eager to try, and they couldn't wait to follow this adult away.

"Sir, it's getting late, and everyone must be hungry. To thank you for bringing a new water source to Juba, we have taken the initiative to prepare some food and wine. We hope you will do us the honor of joining the banquet the Juba people have prepared for you."

Duotu stood up and spoke to Luo Heng enthusiastically.

Luo Heng wanted to refuse immediately after hearing this. The people in this city had been living in hunger for a long time, and a banquet would probably make their life even more difficult.

After all, just drinking water cannot solve the problem of hunger.

"No need. We still have to hurry to Aruma. The people there are in urgent need of water." The reason Luo Heng gave was very sufficient, and at the same time did not hurt the self-esteem of the Juba people.

Although everyone's faces were filled with regret, they couldn't come up with any reason to object, so Duotu had no choice but to turn around and discuss something in a low voice with the people around him.

"In that case, could you please agree to one small request of ours?" Not long after, they seemed to have come to a conclusion after discussing it again.

"Oh? Just tell me." Luo Heng was not afraid that they would make any excessive demands.

"We hope that Your Excellency will agree to let us erect a statue of you in Yuba." Duoto rubbed his dry hands nervously, fearing that he would be rejected by Luo Heng again.

"Statue?" Duoto's words surprised Luo Heng. This was the treatment only true great men could receive.

I didn't expect that just by solving their water problem, I would receive such recognition from the Juba people.

"That's fine. Thank you very much." Luo Heng also couldn't think of any reason to refuse.

I believe no one can refuse others' worship.

Luo Heng's caravan slowly drove away with the reluctant farewell of the Jewish people.

Although Luo Heng was a little tired sitting in the car, there was always a smile on his face.

Although he started out as a villain, it's always better to be loved than to be hated by everyone.

Weiwei, who was sitting next to them, was also unable to calm down after what she had seen and heard in Yuba that day.

She couldn't understand how Crocodile, the villain she hated so much not long ago, could become a great benefactor in the eyes of the people in just a few days.

What kind of magic power does this guy have?

This isn't something that can be achieved simply by possessing a devil fruit.

Have I been blaming him wrongly all along?

Weiwei fell into deep self-doubt for a while, and from time to time she turned her head to secretly look at Luo Heng.

However, Luo Heng noticed her little tricks again. "This girl, I wonder what she's plotting against me again."

"There's food there, bring it to me." Luo Heng said, pointing to a cabinet next to the refrigerator box.

Weiwei had been secretly glancing at Luo Heng and felt a little guilty, but this time she didn't object and went to get the things quickly.

When I opened the cabinet, I was surprised to see that the three layers, upper, middle and lower, were filled with all kinds of food.

Weiwei couldn't help but swallow her saliva, and her stomach made a gurgling sound in cooperation.

It is particularly clear in this quiet carriage.
