Pirates: I’m afraid the world isn’t violent enough!

Although he felt miserable in his heart, Slok Mingde still had to look grateful on his face, nodded and agreed: "If there is any difficulty in the future, I will definitely ask you for help, Lieutenant General Benn..."

"Yeah, as long as you understand this." Altoron nodded happily.

Then, the scene fell silent. Doflamingo looked at these two guys and didn't know what to say for a moment. Slokmund also didn't know how to answer.

After Oltorun was silent for a while, he looked at Sluk Mingde with a strange look and said, "Why are you still sitting here? Go and experience the happy new life of the King Shichibukai. Your younger brother is still waiting at the dock. Looking after you!"

"Ah? Can I leave?" Sluk Mingde quickly stood up, not even caring about the hot tea on the table, and left here in a hurry. When leaving, he even didn't forget to close the reception room politely. door.

After Slokmund left, Altoron sat on the sofa, picked up the cup of tea that no one drank, took a sip, and said to Doflamingo with a smile: "It's funny."

"No, I should say it was eye-opening..." Doflamingo shook his head with emotion.

He had always felt that Oltorun was a bit unreasonable and treated him like a little brother.

He is the old Heavenly Dragon from Zhenghuang Banner, the little overlord of Beihai!

Don't you have any respect or courtesy for him?

But after seeing the miserable state of Slukmund today, Doflamingo finally understood that Altorun treated Doflamingo as his own brother!

You can’t expect too much, this is enough!

"Look, am I fair and just in my work? I can't just ask you, Doflamingo, to pay for the matters regarding the Shichibukai. Otherwise, wouldn't I be looking down on you? Don't worry, I will always be the one in the future. Everyone who is under the command of the Shichibukai has to pay a guarantee fee of 20 billion beli. That is to say, Crocodile ran far away and is now hiding in Alabasta and refuses to come out, but you can rest assured that he will pay the required amount. It is inevitable that I will calculate the interest for him, and when I have the opportunity, I will collect it from him." Ortorun said with a smile as if he was "I am very loyal."

"Fair, so damn fair!" Doflamingo gave a thumbs up in admiration and praised.

"Okay, okay, let's not talk about these things. Have you done it with Marigio? If you do, I will start recommending you to be the king of the Shichibukai..." Altoron put down the teacup. asked.

Doflamingo also sighed helplessly after hearing this: "Those bastards on Mariejoia, if you, Lieutenant General Ban, were half as moral as you, I wouldn't have to worry. I'll try to use my connections to I have a good relationship, I walked around a bit, and spent a lot of money, but all I got was rejection..."

"Those guys are really unethical." Oltorun frowned, and then said: "If you don't give them some pain, they won't know what pain is."

"What do you mean?" Doflamingo's eyes lit up and he looked at Altoren and asked.

"You look for an opportunity to kill him. Isn't it the end of the year? It's 1501 soon? It's time for all countries to hand over heavenly gold. If you are familiar with the North Sea, you can find two heavenly gold ships and hijack them for him. Threaten Look at Marie Joa, this is a matter of concern to the face of the world government, they will definitely let go." Altorun warned.

In the original story, Doflamingo relied on this skill to become the King of the Seven Warlords, so there was nothing wrong with him.

Doflamingo was stunned for a moment, and then asked worriedly: "Is this too embarrassing? Is it really appropriate? If they are pushed into a hurry..."

"If you push them into a hurry, they will send the navy to destroy you, right?" Ortorun rolled his eyes, and then said: "I am the navy, what are you worried about? You find a place to hide, and I will do it when the time comes. I’ll help you make some arrangements. If the headquarters can’t do anything, they’ll just say they can’t find you. It’s been a long time. Who do you think is in a hurry?”

Doflamingo looked at Altolen and was silent for a moment, then grinned and said, "Lieutenant General Bane, the world's government deserves to have a loyal man like you!"

"Hey, it's all their blessing." Oltorun waved his hand shamelessly and said humbly.

After finishing the topic, Ortorun said: "I came to you this time to ask you to recommend any industries that are labor-intensive and particularly profitable? I want to get involved..."

"Labor intensive?" Doflamingo was stunned for a moment, and then asked tentatively: "Are you going to use people from the navy to help you make private money?"

It's not surprising that Doflamingo would think this way. He had never seen this kind of thing in Beihai. Those base commanders of some branch of the Navy would easily send out their own naval soldiers to do private work for them.

Ortorun is in the new world, the sky is high and the emperor is far away, and he has a navy of thirty to twenty thousand men. If he really wants to do this kind of thing, he will indeed have plenty of labor force.

"That's not true. As a naval general, I have always worked for the benefit of my subordinates. How could I do such a thing of exploiting my subordinates? That's right, I imported a group of pirates from Impelton and planned to be slaves. To use it, you need about 50,000 to 60,000 yuan, right? There will be a steady stream of follow-up, among which 20,000 to 30,000 yuan, I have other uses, and the rest must be allowed to create value for them..." Alto Ethics said confidently.

Doflamingo? ? ?

What do you mean by imported pirates? I, Doflamingo, have been immersed in all walks of life in the dark world for many years, why have I never heard of this professional term?

Chapter 153: The development of the Windless Zone and the platinum-lead mine business.

Although he had never heard of the term 'imported pirates', Doflamingo was a smart man and quickly understood what Altoren meant.

After all, this matter of using pirates and prisoners to do work is really not Oltorun's patent.

It's not even Kaido's patent, but the patent of Marijoa, the old Celestial Dragon of Shangzheng Huangqi. From the beginning of the establishment of the World Palace, there has been a project spanning hundreds of years, and it has not been completed yet. Woolen cloth.

That is the 'Cross-sea Bridge Project'. Originally, the Tianlong people intended to connect various islands by building a cross-sea bridge. This project was called Techi Lalang, and was also known as the 'Bridge-Building Country'.

The main labor force for this project is the various pirates, evil parties, and anti-world political figures who have been continuously added to it for hundreds of years.

It has been built for hundreds of years, and it is still being built in the East China Sea. Trying to connect all the islands in the world is like a dream. Only the Celestial Dragons can do such willful things.

After understanding what Altoren meant, Doflamingo thought for a while and said: "I think mining is the most suitable industry for labor-intensive and highly profitable industries..."

"Is it really mining?" Ortorun touched his chin and said: "I have considered this before, but it seems that the related mineral resources in the New World are not particularly rich?"

"It's okay, mainly because there are no people to develop it. After all, the environment and atmosphere are here, and it is very dangerous. Instead of developing these mineral resources in the new world, what can those who have the manpower and material resources do to make money?" Dover Brother Langming said with a smile.

There are only people like Ortolon and the others who hold a lot of free pirate slaves who can be used as consumables. If they consider this, it is almost enough. The rest of them will organize tens of thousands of workers to mine in the new world? Just kidding!

After a short pause, Doflamingo continued: "Leaving aside the New World, I have always believed that the Windless Zone is a very good area with abundant resources to be developed. If Lieutenant General Ban has It has the ability to solve the transportation safety problem in the windless zone. I think it is very suitable there... In fact, with the power of your naval warships, it is not difficult to form a fleet and pass through the windless zone..."

"The Windless Belt..." Ortorun's eyes lit up and he murmured.

Yes, the Doldrums has never been properly developed since it was discovered by humans, a few hundred years at most, thousands of years. Only the local indigenous people and countries like Amazon Lily have made small uses of its resources.

It can be said to be a land of wealth that is truly undeveloped. Because most of today's ship technology is powered by sails, the windless zone is an impassable and forbidden area for sailboats that require a lot of wind power.

In addition, the windless zone has a stable climate and calm seas, so it is very popular with sea kings. They usually set up nests in the windless zone, where countless super giant sea kings live, each as big as an island. .

Once they are disturbed in the windless zone, they will be in big trouble.

So without any strength, it is really impossible to wander around in the windless zone.

"Yes, the Windless Zone is not only a mining resource, but also a very top-notch timber resource. Lieutenant General Bann, you have purchased so much shipbuilding equipment from me before, and you have plans to develop in this area. What if If you can achieve results in the windless zone, your shipbuilding plan will be self-sufficient in raw materials in the future. More importantly, once you successfully take root in the windless zone, it will be equivalent to opening up a stable sea market. The North Windless Belt in the New World can directly communicate with the North Sea. Our goods, resources, and commodities in the North Sea can be continuously transported to the New World at an efficiency that far exceeds that of other competitors. This The trade profits inside are terrifying enough..." Doflamingo analyzed.

Ortorun is thinking about another question. What are the two most important elements in strong logistical support for violent institutions, armed organizations, and the military?

One is weapons and armaments, and the other is food!

If you have enough ammunition and weapons in your hands, to put it bluntly, as long as the bottom line can be lowered, you can make money no matter what. If you can't rob it, it's over.

So money is not the most important thing.

In contrast, being able to self-sufficiently meet food needs is the key to stabilizing the army in hand!

The climate in the Windless Belt is mild and very stable. You can grow two crops and four crops a year, no matter what you grow. If a large number of plantations and farms are opened there, then Imperialton will be sent there. The pirate slaves who came here were reduced to agricultural tools. In the vision of G-5 and the future new navy, wouldn't the problem of food foundation be solved?

Thinking of this, Ortorun clapped his thighs excitedly and said: "Okay, okay, this idea is very good! The windless belt really needs to be developed...Dover, you have been a big help to me..."

"It's just a casual mention, as long as you can use it." Doflamingo waved his hand modestly, not taking credit.

After a pause, Ortolon said: "Besides this matter, I have called you here this time because I also want to ask, is your Don Quixote family also engaged in the grain business?"

"It involves a little bit." Doflamingo responded with a slight nod.

"In that case, can you help us purchase a large amount of food? As you know, we will have a large number of laborers coming soon. Although I don't have to pay them for working, I still have to take care of the food. No matter what Food, how can they have the strength to work for me? Why don’t they all starve to death? But now there are tens of thousands of mouths to eat. Although our G-5 food supply can be sustained in the short term, there is no need for me. Isn't it a waste to use the refined grains that are meant for the brothers to be eaten by these bastards? Are you right?" Ortorun said.

Do those bastard pirates deserve to eat the same food as their G-5 navy?

"So you mean to get food at a lower price?" Doflamingo asked after thinking for a while.

"Well, it doesn't matter whether it's old sesame or rotten millet. It's cheap and can fill you up. It's not bad and it doesn't kill you. You don't have to worry about the taste. You'll eat it when you're hungry." Ortorun said without hesitation.

"Then this kind of thing is easy to handle. Things like Chen Liang are very cheap. If you have a large demand, we can open a special channel to continue selling until you don't need it." Doflamingo agreed directly. down.

"Then please." Altoron said happily.

The two sat here drinking tea and chatting some more. Doflamingo finally couldn't sit still and asked tentatively: "But Lieutenant General Ben, your account with me before... cough, It’s not over yet…”

As soon as he mentioned this Ortorun, he glanced around guiltily. Seeing that he couldn't escape, he cried and said with a sad face: "The landlord's family doesn't have any food left. I'm so poor. All the money has been spent, and I haven’t seen anyone come back yet. If you are not in a hurry, just wait and calculate the interest as normal. When the goods from Beihai arrive, I will be at Totland Wanguo’s. As soon as I sell it, I will pay you back immediately..."

Doflamingo was also very helpless when he saw Altoren crying for money. I just heard it clearly. The little brother of Slok Minde just sent you 20 billion beli today. cash.

Then you turned around and told me I had no money?

"Sigh..." Doflamingo sighed softly and said, "In this case, I won't urge you anymore. I still believe in Lieutenant General Benn's credibility. However, I was originally thinking that recently, There will be a business that will make you a fortune. If you have some spare money, you can invest in it. Basically, it is a sure-fire business..."

When Ortorun, who was still crying about poverty, heard this, he immediately sat up straight, cleared his throat and said: "What about that? I suddenly remembered that we still have 20 billion Baileys on our account, which is Si Le The money that guy Ke Mingde just paid back..."

Doflamingo heard this and asked with a wicked smile: "Are you going to pay me the bill?"

Ortorun waved his cheeky hand and said: "Let's postpone the settlement first. What did you just say about the opportunity to make money... If I make this money, I will settle the account for you as soon as possible." !”

Hearing these rogue words, Doflamingo was dumbfounded, but he finally said: "Beihai, Freifans Kingdom, there is a problem with the platinum-lead mines, and platinum-lead disease has begun to appear one after another in their country. patients, it is very likely that there will be a large-scale outbreak of platinum-lead disease in the past two years. I am not sure, Lieutenant General Ban, whether you understand the concept of platinum-lead disease, but what I mean is that this disease, once it occurs in Freifan If there is a large-scale outbreak, they will perish as a nation!"

Altorun asked with some doubts in his eyes: "So?"

"As far as I know, the world government has secretly started to purchase platinum and lead in large quantities. Platinum and lead are not only loved by nobles from all over the world and used as ornaments, tableware, etc., but they are also important precious metals. It is a rigid need for high-end technology in the military industry. In other words, once Frevans is destroyed, the production of platinum and lead will inevitably plummet, or even return to zero. In this case, the platinum and lead that has not been sold yet will be hoarded in hand. You can imagine the price..." Doflamingo said with an evil smile.

"You mean, we should also attack?" Ortorun raised his eyebrows.

"That's right, if you have enough consumables, we can even contract out all the platinum-lead mines after this epidemic is over and after Frevans is destroyed, and use consumables to develop them. It will be a steady stream of huge profits. , I think you should know what position Frevanth has in the North Sea with platinum and lead, right?" Doflamingo looked at Altoren and asked.

"The richest kingdom in the North Sea..." Altorun said softly.

Chapter 154 The waves of the new world, the new generation has begun to emerge!

Quietly, Doflamingo arrived.

Heavy, with Oltorun's expectations and 5 billion Beli in cash, he left G- in style.

Immediately, Ortorun's life entered a peaceful state. He stayed in G-5 all day long to deal with various documents and government affairs, and the entire G-5 was also running stably.

Gion and Yixiao led their respective teams and kept clearing out the pirates who were like leeks in their G-5 area and couldn't kill them all.

Originally, these captured pirates were going to be sent to Impelton, but now they can skip this process and be sent directly to the Shipbuilding Island to work as laborers. Master Tom couldn't stop talking with joy.

Flying Squirrel personally led a team to Impelton. In almost two months, he borrowed the opponent's prison ship and escorted back 50,000 pirate prisoners.

Normally, Impelton's prison ship is not loaned out, but this is to reduce their burden. The cooperation there is incredible. The Flying Squirrel also represents G-5 and fought with Magellan on the spot in Impelton. An 'Import Agreement' has been signed. Every month, Impelton delivers five thousand pirate prisoners. If their pressure is high, there is no limit to the amount G-5 can receive.

In other words, there is a guarantee of 5,000 per month, but if Impelton is willing to give it away, then you can give it 50,000 per month, and we want it too!

This made Magellan very happy. Even though he had never met Ortorun in person, he praised Ortorun to the sky. He bluntly said that Lieutenant General Ben was Imperial's good brother. If he needs help with anything in the future, Magellan would never refuse anything he could do with just one sentence!

Not only building ships, Ortorun also funded Master Tom's sea train research project.

This thing is extremely useful. Once the technology is developed and popularized within G-5's jurisdiction, connecting various islands, kingdoms, etc., G-5's control over this sea area will increase to A terrifying height.

It used to take ten days and a half to drive a warship there, but now it takes two days to get there with a navy truck. Think about this intensity and influence?

This is still a military role, not to mention the improvement brought about by the economy.

In particular, sea train technology is particularly suitable for windless zones. Tezzolo has already begun preparations for this windless zone development plan. If this thing can be applied, it will be a huge improvement.

In addition to the matter of pirate slaves and shipbuilding coming to an end, that guy Kaji finally came over from Garp.

Just like Gion, although they will be stationed in G-5 to work in the future, their establishment is not within the establishment of G-5. Gion is assigned to the Intelligence Department, and is assigned to G-5 as a major general directly under Garp. It's a long-term collaboration.

The work that Ortorun arranged for Kake was exactly the same as that of Gion and Isho: training and elites!

After all this time of development, the strength of G-5 has been significantly enhanced. There are as many as regular naval members in the base, of which more than have already possessed a certain combat effectiveness after Yixiao's previous actual combat training. The remaining are mostly recruits with little combat effectiveness, but with Gion and Kake leading them, it is estimated that it won't take long for them to form the combat effectiveness of a regular army.

And the conscription still has no intention of stopping. Ortorun estimates that in order to increase the G-5 to the level of elites, the casualties and losses in the process of removing the poor and retaining the elite are estimated to be at least ten. Only with to soldiers can we truly train soldiers, who would be considered elites capable of fighting in the new world!

This process is expected to last until 1503 to 1504 in the Hyalinian calendar before the goal can be completed.

In addition to the headquarters, G-5 now has stationed troops in seven countries and islands. Among them, only two are member states, and the rest are all natives of the New World who do not enjoy the protection of the world government.

But Oltorun doesn't care whether you are a member of the franchising country or not. How can you distinguish between the third, sixth and ninth grade in matters of justice? As long as you are willing to give money, I am willing to treat you equally and unify the garrison!

This garrison plan has also achieved remarkable results. It has indeed greatly enhanced the security and stability of those countries and islands. It is estimated that more customers will come to discuss cooperation with Ortorun in the future.

Among these seven garrison points, some are stationed with four to five thousand troops, and some are stationed with three to two thousand troops. They are all arranged based on the protection fees they pay.

Ling Ling Zongzong, combined, there are almost 30,000 navy troops stationed outside.

Among the 30,000 navy, there were half a mix of new recruits and veterans. Their combat effectiveness was not that great, but it was still much stronger than their original king's army.

However, the warships originally promised to go out were not in place, because the warships at Altorun's base were not enough. How could there be spare time to equip them?

Those navies stationed abroad are basically currently using pirate warships captured by G-5 from various places. Let's make do with them first, and then replace them one after another when the shipbuilding business picks up.

All in all, today, Lieutenant General Ben Ortolen, the commander of the G-5 Naval Base, has naval personnel. It can be said that he is truly one of the best among naval bases around the world. .Not to mention, he is basically at the same level as other naval bases in terms of military strength.

Comparing the rest of the naval bases with Kuzan, their G-8 naval base is already relatively large. Kuzan only has people, which is directly outnumbered by Ortorun. street!

Although Oltorun actually had up to 5 troops in his hands, the recorded G- size at the headquarters was men and warships, which was gone.

It can be said that the remaining navy, in the headquarters, are all black households!

The Warring States General never asked about this, and Ortorun never reported it.

The two of them have a very tacit understanding on this matter, and their main thing is to keep out of sight and out of sight.

In April 1501 of the Haiyuan calendar, some interesting things happened in the new world.

Moonlight Moria, who has already entered the new world, has always been in a wandering state. There is no fixed base and base for their pirate group.

His bounty has gradually increased to more than 300 million in the past two years. Perhaps he feels that the new world is suitable for him, so Moria also wants to find a place to settle down as his home base.
