RULER OF THE FOREST OF HELL
The Part 23
The next day Emperor Hao and his entourage rushed out of the inn, and they went for a walk and saw the state of the people of the kingdom of hell. Thinking they could help one of the people there, Emperor Hao instead saw the reality that was the opposite of his plan. The state of the people there is far from the shadow of the previous thought.
"Are you looking for something?" ask a man who is helping some women grow vegetables
"We went around saying hello to the villagers, but where are they?" asked Emperor Hao while sitting on a stretch of grass
"All the people here work for the kingdom, some are servants, healers, chefs, soldiers and more. They will return home at night" the man said again
"Then why don't you work for the government and choose to grow vegetables?" ask emperor Hao
"Our work is indeed farming sir. We grow rice and lots of vegetables. All this for the food needs of all the people in this kingdom. And we also get a salary of 50 gold coins per month" replied a mother who took a break there
"What's? 50 gold coins?" asked Emperor Hao while glaring his eyes
"That's right, all the people are paid by the government, given a comfortable residence and also decent food" said the mother again
"What about children and old people?" this time General Hong asked
"The orphans were placed in orphanages, they got shelter, food and clothing and education for free from the kingdom and for the elderly were placed in nursing homes, he said, they also get shelter, food, clothes and pocket money of 20 gold coins per month" said the man
"Then your children?" ask emperor hao
"Our children live with us, they are also given free education by the government" the mother said
"Where are the poor people in this kingdom?" ask emperor Hao
"Didn't there seem to be a difference between the rich and the poor here?" ask general ji. Those people just laughed
"Gentlemen are wrong, the people here are prosperous and prosperous, we can buy good clothes at a price of 1 gold coin per sheet. Luxury jewelry with a price of 5 gold coins, a luxury food with a price of 1 gold coin is enough to eat 10 people, free educational treatment, free of charge, free of charge, free residence and also get a decent job with a high salary and work hours are fairly fast. Which people are poor? While we could have stayed inside the palace and asked for a lot of coins to the kingdom if our needs were not met" said the man again
"Are you not envious of the income of another family greater than yours?" ask general Hong
"Master, the people who lived here used to be poor people, homeless people, beggars and also slaves who were freed and guaranteed their lives by the princesses and princes, too, everything we have today is a blessing from the generosity and kindness of the members of this kingdom. Much or little we receive, we remain grateful. Because our lives are guaranteed" the man explained
"If you want to look for the poor, look for it in the Feng, Zhao, Zhu empires as well as the Xuan and Hao empires. there is still a lot of slavery throughout the empire and also a lot of nobles and officials who torture the people, in contrast to in this kingdom, everyone lives a happy and secure life" said the mother
"Uhukis... Uhuk.." emperor Hao coughed
"Master, go to the clothing store, the price of the clothes there is about 10 to 30 gold coins, but if we buy it then it will only cost 1 gold coin. Then go to the jewelry store, 1 set of jewelry price of 50 to 500 gold coins, but for us only 5 gold coins, then you go buy pills and also herbs, master will know if its existence is so rare then its price could reach millions of gold coins. We don't even have to spend 1 silver coin to pay for it. Even they will serve our needs better" the man said
Finally, Emperor Hao and his entourage resigned
"If all the people live well, then how can zen help them? Or should we change our plans?" ask emperor Hao
While the others just shook their heads, they were confused by the circumstances they were facing this time.
