Men are inferior to women

After Fang Zhou left, the gourd babies surrounded the eldest baby, and the third baby said dissatisfiedly: "Elder sister, grandpa can't possibly die, why do you believe that liar."

The other gourd babies also looked at the big baby.

Dawa sighed deeply: "If grandpa doesn't come to save us, then it doesn't matter to us whether he is dead or alive."

"Sister, you..."

The gourd babies were all stunned, as if they didn't expect the elder sister to say such "rebellious" words.

"Wake up, sisters, grandpa never regards us as relatives, but as subordinates who can sacrifice at will."

The eldest child said firmly: "I am very grateful to my grandpa for protecting us, but we have also done a lot of things for it. Now we can't protect ourselves. Grandpa's life and death are unknown. We can only save ourselves."

Compared with grandpa, Dawa hopes that her younger sisters will be safe and sound.

Sanwa was dissatisfied: "Then we don't have to cooperate with this liar."

The eldest child showed a wry smile: "Third sister, do you think we have any other choice? We are now in the hands of others."

Sanwa looked at the boundless gourd space and fell silent.

Chapter 112 112. Strategic Partners

After leaving the calabash space, Fang Zhou finally breathed a sigh of relief.

This was much better than he had expected. He had already planned for the worst in a fight with the gourd babies, and he would lose both, because he wasn't sure if these gourd babies would fight him desperately after their grandfather was killed.

It seems that the relationship between them and their grandfather was not as strong as expected.

Ling Xiaoyue was still in the room sorting the small commodities she had collected. Judging by her proficiency, she might have done this kind of thing before, and she is a qualified small trader.

Fang Zhou asked Ling Xiaoyue for paper and pen, and wrote down two contracts, which covered the scope of cooperation between him and the gourd babies, responsibilities and rewards.

It seems a bit redundant to do so, but Ark wanted to make it more formal and create a serious atmosphere to shock this group of country people who have never seen the world, oh no, they are country monsters.

After finishing writing, the ark waited for the ink to dry before carefully folding it up. He was going to try to see if he could bring things into the gourd with his consciousness.

Closing his eyes, Fang Zhou's consciousness entered the gourd, but his hands were empty, and the contract could not follow in.

I don't know if it is not enough proficiency or not at all. This issue can only be discussed later.

Fang Zhou went out again, sucked the two contracts into the gourd, and then his consciousness entered the gourd again.

After finding the contract that was sucked in, Ark flew towards the gourd babies.

The speed of time in the calabash space is different from that of the outside, and the speed is very fast. When Fang Zhou wrote the two contracts outside, several days have passed in the calabash.

Far away, Fang Zhou saw the seven gourd babies hiding on a large flat rock on the rubbish mountain.

Seeing Fang Zhou appearing, the calabash dolls didn't rush up to fight and shout, they must have already discussed whether to accept Fang Zhou's proposal.

However, they looked at Fang Zhou without any kindness in their eyes, and they couldn't tell if there was any hatred, but the hostility was obvious.

Especially Sanwa, who looked at Fang Zhou still full of anger. I really don't know where this girl got so much resentment. When she was in Lanruo Temple, Fang Zhou didn't do anything to her.

From the second child to the seventh child, there was no movement, only the eldest child came up to meet them, and a consensus should have been reached.

"We agree to cooperate with you."

The eldest child went straight to the topic as soon as he came up, but after the words were spoken, the resolute look on his face collapsed, revealing a look of pain.

It looked like he was going to be a slave from now on.

It seems that the gourd babies don't believe in the equal cooperation that Fang Zhou said at all, and think that Fang Zhou will inevitably enslave their seven sisters.

If possible, Fang Zhou would not mind doing it, but he knew very well that slavery was a very backward system, and slave owners would not end well, so doing this would be too dangerous.

He would ask the gourd babies to help him with work in the future. If he enslaved them, he would definitely feel resentful. How stupid it would be to keep a group of monsters who were full of resentment and even hatred towards him by his side.

Fang Zhou is not interested in restricting or re-educating them too much, nor does he have the energy, so it is better to open the window and speak out.

"Don't rush to agree."

Fang Zhou handed the contract to the eldest child: "Look at this first."

The eldest child took the contract with some doubts, looked down, then looked up at Fang Zhou, showing an embarrassed expression.

She is illiterate.

It can't be considered illiterate, the big baby still knows the words on the chess, but nothing else.

Fortunately, there is another one of the gourd babies who can read and write, that is Erwa. When Fang Zhou saw Erwa for the first time, he found that she was reading a book, and she also looked like a gentle scholar.

The eldest child took the contract back and showed it to the second child, and a group of gourd children gathered around and whispered.

"What is this?"

"This is the contract."

After Erwa read the contract book from beginning to end, she showed a strange look: "It records the cooperation with us."

"Cooperation?"

Sanwa hurriedly said: "Isn't he going to turn us into slaves?"

Erwa also shook her head blankly, expressing that she was not sure, and then read the content of the contract to the sisters.

Although the content is rich, it is not complicated. Ark tries to write in plain and simple sentences, and uses less idioms, lest these monsters cannot understand.

The first sentence of the contract is that the two parties have formed a strategic partnership, emphasizing the responsibilities and rewards of both parties. Calabash dolls are responsible for following Fang Zhou’s orders and are responsible for his life safety. They have worked for ten years. During these ten years, Fang Zhou is responsible for The daily necessities of gourd babies must be freed after ten years.

There are also many rules. For example, gourd babies are not allowed to be passive and sabotage their work, and they are not allowed to hurt their employers by eating inside and outside, and Ark cannot let gourd babies do things that must die, and they cannot deliberately endanger their safety.

And there are many benefits, such as getting the basic necessities of life, taking turns going out once a day, and bonuses for doing a good job.

After listening to Erwa's explanation, the Calabash Babies were a little dumbfounded, and a thought came to their minds in unison—I'm afraid this person is not a fool, to give them such good treatment to these defeated generals.

The winner enslaves the loser, which is very common among monsters, even among humans. The loser loses everything, is disposed of by the winner at will, and is killed or eaten after being tortured is the most common end.

It would be too strange for Ark to cooperate with them on an equal footing.

Of course, if Fang Zhou really chooses to be enslaved, the gourd babies will accept it due to the situation, but they are afraid in their hearts that they will regard him as an enemy who must be killed, instead of swearing at a fool as lightly as they are now, and they dare not swear.

Siwa interjected, "This... can you believe it?"

Wu Wa immediately retorted: "It's written in black and white, why can't you believe it?"

"Who told you that you can believe it when you write it?"
