"Are you really not here to tease me?"
In the small room, there were three men in strange clothes. They were all muscular and looked like good players. However, they couldn't hold their heads up when facing the thin young man in front of them.
After all, this man was the creditor and the life-saver who had just pulled them out of the hot bed.
"Looking at your age, you should all be my seniors, but you dare to sign this kind of agreement?"
Lu Ping'an patted the pile of paper on his hand, which was the deed of betrayal he had just redeemed.
He, a young boy, slapped the table, and several others were shocked, but they still did not argue because there was really nothing to argue with.
"We didn't expect that the ordinary contract in this damn place would actually be a deed." The muscular man named Liu Xing who first dealt with Lu Ping'an had a helpless and innocent face, looking like a forty-year-old child.
"Forget about the deed paper, I also used the most disgusting 'deed pattern' to cover up the target." This feminine man, Mu Ranyi, looked very young and handsome, but when he was discovered, he was a little bit... Too bad, it would have been sold any later.
"The most damning thing is that the target he is pointing at is actually that Firebird. Oh my God, how dare we tear up this contract!"
This is the youngest of the trio, Lu Feifei, who looks to be in his twenties. He is the latest to arrive, and is probably the only one who has not yet been "murdered".
Seeing that the three uncles could still quibble, Lu Ping'an laughed angrily. In order to fish them out, all his activity funds were wiped out.
"Perhaps, I need you to continue working and at least pay back what you owe me."
work to earn a living? What kind of work can they do in this damn place?
Immediately, everyone calmed down and listened to the instructions of the "younger generation" without raising their heads.
But in fact, if you really look at these deeds, these three unlucky guys were not unfairly recruited, and it was not even specifically designed to deceive them.
"Yeah, who would have thought that this deed paper, which is so cheap that it only costs at least a hundred pieces, can actually be notarized by Firebird."
Deed paper is what people on earth call it, but in Lu Ping'an's eyes, there is no essential difference between this local standard A4-sized contract and the deed paper.
Its performance is extremely poor, and it cannot even perform the most basic "Red Letter Contract" on the earth. At this price, Lu Ping'an thinks it is a money grab. However, the "coat of arms" that represents a certain great existence, let it be compared to the most basic "red letter contract" on earth. Expensive contracts are still valid.
"Perhaps this is the cornerstone of why this civilization is so stable."
Cheap "contract paper" can be bought everywhere at a very low price and can be used for ordinary employment contracts.
The three unlucky guys in front of them ended up like this. It really wasn't because someone specifically tricked them (someone tricked them, but that wasn't the main reason). In the final analysis, it was because of their "arrogance" that they didn't take the local rules seriously.
As "outsiders" and extraordinary beings, they did not take local social rules and contracts seriously.
Short of money to spend? Can I still borrow money? Uh, once the labor contract and purchase contract are signed, you can take the items first and pay later?
The meager power on the "deed paper" was not even noticed by them. On the contrary, the deed paper, which might be able to "bind mortals", gave them the illusion of "seeing through" everything, so they signed and took money in a swaggering manner. And then be prepared to default, even if someone warns them of the disastrous consequences of default.
Needless to say, if these guys hadn't stepped into the trap, Lu Ping'an wouldn't have known that the simple patterns on these deed papers that looked like decorations actually referred to that great being.
There is nothing to say about the rest. On the one hand, someone cheated them. On the other hand, their own random consumption was the main reason. By the time they found out that the money was spent and they had no ability to make money and needed to fulfill the contract and pay back the money, it was already too late.
In fact, they couldn't even pay the deed tax and compensation for the breach of contract. Under the "suggestion" of a caring person, they naturally came to the fastest-growing job in the local area. A fellow villager met a fellow villager in the Big Bird Bar.
“It’s miserable, it’s really miserable”
"Not only is it miserable, but it's also embarrassing. How can I behave as a human being if word of this spreads?"
Lu Ping'an was a little scared.
He did not need any contract to live in the countryside. Although his income was almost non-existent, his expenses were extremely low. After integrating into the local society, he unexpectedly earned him a relatively wealthy income through a few poetry collections that were not even third-rate. Money (there is no local piracy, and copyright of manuscript knowledge is more expensive).
And after having money, Lu Ping'an naturally didn't stop, and his team would also find something to do.
A high-quality biology industry chain must produce some results to prove that it has not defrauded the boss of funds.
The research on local medicinal materials and monster flesh and blood naturally led to various low-level medicines for treating and curing diseases. After determining that the effect was good, Lu Ping'an sold them "cheaply" to the surrounding villagers.
This is a very rare "country miracle doctor". It not only further verifies his persona of a "knowledgeable rich boy", but also makes him more of a celebrity and a sage.
Originally, most rural people could only live with it when they got sick. Now that some people are selling medicine to treat illnesses, Lu Pingping has naturally made a lot of money.
After they have money, they will naturally not think about taking advantage of others, nor will they fall into the situation of the unlucky ones in front of them. They are actually the most unlucky group. If they are careful enough, they will not fall into this situation.
"Someone came here before."
".But they have no money."
".Run away, they ran away, they have no conscience."
Well, it seems that Lu Ping'an is not the first "savior" of these three unlucky guys, but he should be the first one who has the ability to fish them out.
But to be honest, Lu Pingan actually values these deeds more.
"Can I take it away?"
"No. The signature of 'Firebird' above will be effective even across worlds, but if she really crosses the multiverse and borrows her power, she is not her own 'authorizer'. No matter how good-tempered she is, she may get angry on the spot. .This is blasphemous in every way.”
What will happen if the firebird gets angry on the spot? After thinking about it, it's better not to try it. Beings of this level can trace cause and effect, and playing tricks is basically seeking death.
And this also proves that these simple and ugly deed papers are actually approved by Firebird.
So, this also means
"A true multiverse-level civilization that follows the spirit of the contract"
When such contracts are everywhere, it also means that most transactions in this multiverse must at least follow the "spirit of contract."
Of course, this is not a panacea. There are too many tricks and techniques to bypass the black and white words of the contract, and Firebird cannot devote too much attention to the contract. It is more likely to casually crush the violators to death. But when If a society has a literally acceptable "consensus" and everyone believes in contracts and transactions from the bottom of their hearts, it is destined to be much more stable than other jungle law and dark forest law worlds.
Lu Ping'an shook his head. This is something he can't envy. A twelve-pillar level existence can really protect civilization in the palm of his hand. Don't say that the whole world relies on one "existence" that is unreliable and unstable. It's you. The world is over, but that "existence" is still fine.
".Do something for me."
This time, Lu Ping'an spent a lot of money to save the unfortunate guy in front of him. Naturally, it was not out of kindness.
