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

I was happily making a small profit of more than 2 billion just now, but now I have lost hundreds of billions?

"One hundred and thirty billion beli." Tezzolo said in a very calm tone.

Altorun covered his head and asked with some sadness: "I lost six and a half of the King's Shichibukai in a year?"

"Our G-5 navy needs to spend more than troops. Because the standards you gave are high enough, on average, each person's monthly expenditure is nearly beli. Calculated , the normal salary payment alone will cost more than billion beli every month, and nearly billion beri in a year... This is just the regular salary standard, after each war , we will pay a reward, which will be at least more than billion beli in a year. In addition, there are various welfare benefits, such as daily living supplies, food for the army, etc. .. After the settlement, it’s nearly billion beli a year, and our high casualty rate brings high resettlement expenses, pensions, disability subsidies and..." Tezzolo told Austria on the spot. Ertorun calculated.

These strings of expenditure figures made Ortolen's head spin when he heard them, but when he thought about it carefully, they were reasonable.

"Therefore, the deficit of 130 billion beli is not a big number. If we maintain the level of last year, we will lose at least this amount every year in the future." Tezzolo said with a smile.

"You can still laugh at this!?" Ortorun glared at Tezzolo with indignant eyes.

"Sir Ortorun, you don't need to be so anxious. According to the calculation of this year's fiscal revenue, as long as we maintain the current three-month regular level this year, we can fully afford these expenditures next year and still maintain a surplus..." Tezzolo said in relief.

Oltorun breathed a sigh of relief, and then asked: "The rest of the business has made progress, right?"

"Yes, the first batch of goods from the North Sea is very popular in Totland Wanguo. It is almost sold out as soon as it enters the port. With the current freight volume alone, we can maintain nearly 7 billion Baileys every month. The net income, after one year, will be nearly 100 billion Baileys in net profit, and it is obvious that now, it is only the initial stage. Once our navigation is completely familiar, once we can cross the windless zone, the number of armed transport ships will If it is effectively improved, our income in this area will reach a terrifying scale, and it is possible to earn a surplus of one trillion Baileys per year..." Tezzolo said with great anticipation.

This cross-sea smuggling business with stable sales and safe routes is indeed a huge profit among huge profits!

"A trillion dollars a year!" Ortorun suddenly stood up from his seat, stretched out his hands on the table and said: "Then I, Ortorun, with half a million troops, is not an unattainable dream. !”

Of course, if we consider the shackles of the headquarters, it seems that making trillions a year is still useless... But this is just the beginning. Apart from this business, Altorun has huge reasons. Pelton's imported pirates are waiting to create value and join a just cause!

Chapter 187 How many divisions do the Five Elders have? Do you dare to speak loudly to me?

After Tezzolo reported this, he talked about other matters.

"As for the shipbuilding island, Master Tom has given a clear answer. The ancient technology presented to you by His Majesty Shichibukai Moonlight Moria is completely achievable. If we use the G-5 base as the standard, The transformation of the battleship will take about a year and a half, and the capital investment during this period will be a budget of more than billion beli." Tezzolo said after taking a sip of tea.

"You are now worth hundreds of billions, and now you are worth trillions. Now I seem to be a little bit dismissive of these 5 billion Baileys." Ortorun nodded with a smile, and then said: "Then get ready. Let’s start this plan to turn the G- into a battleship. An investment will benefit you for a lifetime.”

"Okay, then I will prepare a plan later." Tezzolo agreed, and then said: "Except for this, the shipbuilding island's plan for this year has been released. It is initially estimated that there will be forty ships. Standard warships will be launched, and at the same time, thirty armed transport ships capable of crossing the windless zone will be launched..."

"Forget about the warships. Aren't the armed transport ships currently just being renovated? Selecting and renovating the pirate ships we captured shouldn't be a particularly time-consuming task, right? Why are there only thirty? Those slaves are not hardworking enough. "?" Ortorun frowned.

Thirty ships are useless! ?

How could he support his dream of being a warlord in Altorum! ?

Tezzolo quickly waved his hand and said: "No, the workload of the pirate slaves has now reached sixteen hours a day. They eat, drink and rest for a total of only eight hours. If their working hours are further increased, , I’m afraid it will affect the service life of these slaves, and we still have many industries that need slaves, so doing so is not worth the gain.”

"Only sixteen hours!?" Altoron was also a little surprised!

As a slave, you can still get eight hours of rest every day? Sure enough, the moral standards of our navy are relatively high. Altorun heard that in the bridge building project of Techila Wolf, the slaves could only rest for three hours a day.

Tezzolo did not accept Ortorun's inhumane words, but explained: "The reason for limiting the production is because there is not enough sea floor stone. We can't get these resources from the headquarters and Marigio. It all depends on acquisitions in the dark world, and the amount of sea floor stones circulating in the dark world is not very abundant, thus limiting the production of armed transport ships..."

"In the final analysis, is it still the problem of Hailou Stone?" Altorun shook his head helplessly.

"Not only is this limited, Master Tom's sea train plan also requires a large amount of sea-floor stones to be laid in the windless zone. Therefore, the plan has never been possible to operate. So far, While he is still being detained, Master Tom has made applications many times, hoping that you can find a way to solve this problem," Tezzolo said.

"Is the technology of sea train mature?" Ortorun asked with a raised brow.

In his impression, in the original story, it took Master Tom nearly ten years to build the sea train. Why is it that less than two years have passed and he is already eager to lay it?

"At the beginning of the year, it was completed. A small island-circulating sea train line was built on Shipbuilding Island. Later, it was dismantled to keep the technology confidential." Tezzolo responded.

Altorun was a little strange at first, but then he thought about it. It took ten years because Master Tom made it directly by hand in a small workshop in the Capital of Seven Waters, and he didn't have much money, so he would most likely take orders at the same time. Shipbuilding, while investing my own income, I slowly researched it.

But now that he has the G-5 Navy on his back, tens of thousands of slaves under his command, and the funds he needs, it seems reasonable to be able to complete the sea train within two years.

So he stopped being curious about this matter, stretched out his hand and rubbed his brow and said, "Hai Lou Shi... do you want me to discuss business with Kaido?"

"I know, I will keep this in mind and tell Master Tom that I will find a way to solve it and let him wait... But although the sea train laying in the windless zone requires a lot of sea floor stone assistance, But there’s not that much demand in normal sea areas, right?” Altorun asked.

"Yes, this is another thing I want to tell you. The commercialization prospects of sea train technology are very good. I plan to promote this technology and commercialize it. If we can use sea trains again, The opening of the train has created a new profit point, which is very good news for our finances." Tezzolo nodded immediately.

The sea train technology was originally meant to be commercialized, and Ortorun thought the same way, so he said: "Then you go down and make a detailed plan. After I read it, if there are no problems, I will find someone to put on a vest. Come make this happen.”

Once the sea train is commercialized, it will definitely be impossible to conceal it. How can it be used if it is concealed?

The inability to hide it means that the G-5 Navy cannot come forward to become the 'operator' behind this, otherwise Mary Joa will definitely investigate him.

Therefore, Ortorun planned to put on a vest and find a white glove to endorse him and become a 'legal representative'.

Thinking about it carefully, Doflamingo, this little brother, is very suitable for doing this kind of thing. Dressrosa is also full of nothing to do. I guess he also wants to build a sea train, right?

And with this technology, Doflamingo's smuggling business efficiency in the dark world can also be greatly expanded. This is a matter of mutual benefit.

More importantly, Altorun and Doflamingo have cooperated enough and accumulated good trust. The relationship between the two parties is relatively strong and reliable!

After explaining Sea Train's plan, Tezzolo clearly still had something to say.

Ortorun also felt the pressure of being the master again. There were so many things. Fortunately, Tezzolo could help share some of the logistical and financial management pressure. Otherwise, he would really have died in G- The 5th base leader is in this position.

"The next two focuses are the windless zone development plan and the Freifans platinum and lead mining plan." Tezzolo dug out the relevant information from the pile of documents and said: "We have dispatched the windless zone four times. The Wind Belt Scientific Research and Exploration Team is searching for resources in the Windless Belt."

"Have you gained anything?" Ortorun asked with some interest.

"Yes, it goes without saying that there is a timber resource island. Basically, every island in the windless zone has abundant timber resources. And after these timber resources are developed, the island can be directly used for food production, killing two birds with one stone!" Tezzolo! The answer was immediately affirmative.

Then, before Ortorun could speak, Tezzolo continued: "In addition to timber resources, we also explored an island with abundant open-pit iron ore resources. Because it is an open-pit mine, it is very difficult to develop. Didn't you bring back some technical information on weapons production from Cake Island before? If we want to consider military production now, we can also arrange the industrial lines directly into the windless zone and mine the corresponding resources nearby, eliminating the need for transportation. Pressure, and at the same time, the concealment is higher..."

Then, Tezzolo elaborated on the matter of the Windless Zone.

Compared with platinum-lead mines, shipbuilding islands, sea trains, smuggling businesses, etc., the windless zone is obviously a more important layout.

It can even be said that the Windless Zone is currently the strategic development center and core of the entire G-5!

Resources are definitely the most important thing. Nowadays, businesses in the food, mining and other resource industries are basically in the hands of the world's government.

In other words, if you have technology, you must also have enough resources to implement it. G-5 has basically met the technical needs, but once it is exposed, the world government will suppress you in terms of resources. , no matter how skilled you are, you cannot create matter out of thin air.

So if you want to get out of these blockades, you must master your own resource development!

The windless zone is just such a place. Once the windless zone is developed and utilized, first of all, the food industry will be able to achieve self-sufficiency. This is particularly important. People can spend no money, but they cannot live without food!

Once food can be self-sufficient, the G-5 Navy will have a certain confidence to confront the world's government.

In the future, if we spend more on military expenditure, weapons manufacturing, and warship manufacturing, and continue to increase troops in the new world, it is not nice to say that when Ortolon really has 500,000 troops and takes control of the new world, what will happen to the five old stars? What a fart!

How many divisions does he have? How dare he whisper to me?

This is only G-5. If the resource requirements of the Navy Headquarters can be met, when the Warring States Period is over, when he goes to Mariegio for a meeting, the five old stars will politely invite him to sit down and drink tea, and chat while drinking!

If we, the general of the Warring States Period, are upset and I give you two big slaps, you have to smile and continue!

Chapter 188 Having many friends makes it easy to borrow money!

Tezzolo talked with Ortorun here all morning, and in the end, Ortorun finally understood everything he needed to hear.

That is, the development prospects of G-5 are very good, and it is expected to make a lot of money in the coming year, but it currently owes a lot of debt, and its fiscal deficit totals nearly billion beli, which needs to be filled as soon as possible.

In other words, Tezzolo came to Ortorun today just to ask for money.

"Two hundred billion is not a small number. How can I get it together for a while..." Ortorun said, covering his head.

Tezzolo shrugged and said that he had nothing to do. If you, the base commander, are not responsible for this kind of thing, who will be responsible?

"Wait a minute, I'll contact my friends..." Altoron raised his hand to signal Tezzolo, then took out his phone and called Doflamingo.

After a while, the phone was picked up, and before Doflamingo could speak, Altoron let out a hearty laugh.

"Hahahahaha, Dover, I congratulate you on getting rich!" Altoren said with a laugh.

Over there at the Telephone Bug, in the Palace of Kings in Dressrosa, Doflamingo was sitting on the throne and his butt was still hot. When he heard Altoron's laughter, his heart skipped a beat!

It’s not good, it’s very, very bad!

So Doflamingo swallowed his saliva and said with a forced smile: "How can we get rich? These poor people are almost begging for food..."

"How can you say such a thing? How unlucky. You have just become the King of Dressrosa. You may be going to Mariejoia to hold a conference with the Warring States Generals and the others in the future. How can this be called Want to get rich?" Ortorun did not accept this trick and continued to support him.

Doflamingo also felt a little guilty and asked casually: "General, are you still satisfied with us?"

"What about Dressrosa?" Altoron raised his eyebrows.

"That's right." Doflamingo responded.

"I still say the same thing. Whose throne was not usurped? Can it be natural? There are not a few kings in the franchised countries who change their thrones every year. The nature of usurping the country by powerful ministers is very different from yours. As long as the procedures are There's no problem in the end, so no one can say anything. Besides, hasn't Marigio already issued an announcement recognizing your side? There's no problem." Altoren gave Doflamingo something to eat He said with reassurance.

"Then I'll be relieved..." Doflamingo said with a smile and a sigh of relief.

"But now that you are rich and have become a wealthy landowner, don't forget us poor brothers..." Altorun changed his tone and said.

Doflamingo felt a little helpless in his heart, and finally couldn't hold it in anymore and said: "I can't forget, I can't forget, if you have any difficulties over there, I will definitely help you..."

"I'm really in a bit of trouble." Ortorun was not polite, and immediately said directly: "It's not the beginning of the year, our G-5's general ledger from last year has also been put in place, hey, guess what?"

As soon as Doflamingo heard this tone, he knew there was something wrong. He thought about it and said, "A loss?"

"It's not just a loss! I lost a lot. I lost nearly 5 billion beli a year. Now the entire G- salary can't be paid. If we can't pay the salary, then the new world will be in chaos. Ah, the new world is in chaos, and everyone is uncomfortable. So for the sake of love and peace, I think I have to ask my brothers for help. See if you have any surplus over there. Give it to me first. I will have it when I have it. I'll give it back to you when I'm rich..." Ortolen said confidently.

Doflamingo was stunned for a moment, then asked after hesitating for a moment: "Lieutenant General Ban, speaking of which, do you still remember the purchase of equipment on the Shipbuilding Island..."

"What's wrong with the equipment?" Oltorun was really unable to turn around for a while.

"Ahem...what, the payment for the equipment...you still owe me more than 30 billion but haven't paid it back..." Doflamingo said tentatively.

Ortorun was also a little hesitant. He looked at Tezzolo and asked, "Is this happening?"

Tezzolo nodded seriously and said: "Yes, I haven't included these arrears in the fiscal deficit for you, but we do owe the Don Quixote family more than 30 billion beli..."

"Hahahahaha... don't worry, our business will definitely make a lot of money next year!" Altoron first said something to Doflamingo, and then said: "It's all owed anyway, I think you should pay more I'll borrow some, and when I have more money later, I'll return it to you..."

Doflamingo said this to me, have you told me this more than once? In the end, I never saw you return a dime to me!

But he actually doesn't care about this very much. Doflamingo is still very optimistic about the future of G-5 and the business with them. As Altoron said, the business is not on the right track yet. It's normal to be in debt, but later on when the business starts, paying back the money is a matter of minutes.

He really wasn't worried about Ortolen's default.

So after thinking for a while, Doflamingo said: "Now that you have said this, as a good brother, I can't be too unkind, but I don't have much food left here, Frey Vance's arrangements, as well as Mariejoia's management before, and now Dressrosa's needs, are all overwhelming me... If you can give me an accurate estimate, I think I can How much more relief will there be?"

"Then I'll give you a half discount... You can lend me 100 billion first, and when you count the original debt later, I will repay you a total of 150 billion beli, and the excess will be treated as interest. How about this? Are you sincere enough?" Altorun said thoughtfully.

In his opinion, this is really sincerity, that is, Doflamingo, this relationship is here, it can be considered that they have cooperated so many times, the trust and emotional foundation are there, and he really regards him as a friend. .

Otherwise, who would give interest to the rest?

When Doflamingo heard that this guy was asking for 100 billion, his head got big, and he quickly said: "This is really not my refusal, Lieutenant General Ben, I really can't afford this 100 billion Bailey. ..”

The Don Quixote family is indeed quite large. If they really liquidate their assets, they can afford more than 500 billion, not to mention 100 billion.

But the problem is that most of these assets are non-circulating fixed assets, and his cash is also needed to circulate the business. If this squeezes out 100 billion beli for Ortorun, he will have the funds on the spot. The chain will be broken and it will go bankrupt!

"Is that so..." Altolen thought for a moment and felt that he couldn't just catch Doflamingo collecting wool by himself. After a while, he said: "Then how convenient is it for you?"

"I just got 5 billion from King Riku of Dressrosa. Let me put it all together for you, and the total will be billion. Not to mention the interest on the previous ones, I will wait for you. Now that I have a lot of money, just pay me billion. The extra billion will be considered as my friendly support to G-, for the sake of justice!" Doflamingo thought for a while and said.

Ortorun was not polite and said immediately: "Okay, thank you very much. I will think of the rest..."

"Well, then my money will be sent to Dressrosa together with this shipment." Seeing that Altoren didn't hold on, Doflamingo breathed a sigh of relief and said happily.

Soon, the two hung up the phone, and Tezzolo said anxiously: "These 30 billion are not enough..."

"Don't worry..." Oltorun waved his hand and said, "I have many friends..."

As he spoke, he fiddled with the phone a few more times. After a while, a respectful voice came from over there: "Lord Ben?"

"Greetings, Mr. Field." Altorun said hello with a smile.

That's right, this time he contacted Lou Field, the loan shark king of the dark world!

"Blame me, blame me. I wanted to say hello to Lord Ben before, but I was worried about disturbing your business. Since we parted ways at Cake Island, I haven't contacted you to express our feelings..." Lou Field smiled politely. road.

After the two exchanged pleasantries for a while, Ortorun pretended to be a little embarrassed and said: "I'm ashamed to say that, as soon as I contacted you, I had something to say..."

"What's there to be ashamed of? Friends should help each other. I, Lou Field, like to make friends with heroes like you. If you need my help, just say a word!" Lou Field was very happy. Said grandly.

"It's like this. When I checked the accounts here, I suddenly found that the money was not enough..." Ortolen thought about it and said.

"What!?" Lou Field exclaimed: "This is a huge event. Who doesn't know that G-5, under the leadership of Lord Ben, is the anchor of our new world? It's because of you G-5 is fighting bloody battles in the new world so that we small businessmen can have a safe environment to do business. If you have a problem, it will have a huge impact on us, so helping you get through the difficulties is helping ourselves. Ah, tell me the number, how much is the difference? I still have some spare money..."

Ortorun was about to say 170 billion, but after thinking about it, he still said: "Two hundred billion beli, is it convenient?"

"It's very convenient!" Lou Field is really wealthy!

He is worthy of being called the loan shark king. Indeed, considering his size and status, 200 billion beli is really not a big problem. After all, this guy dared to invest in the MADS research group before... Then It is truly a bottomless pit, which shows how rich his funds are.

Ortorun smiled and pretended to say: "Please, but in terms of interest, I hope you can lower it for me. I..."

Before Ortorun finished his pretentious words, Lou Field said very decisively: "There is no interest. This is a loan out of friendship. How can it be counted as interest? When will you be rich, please pay me back." Just go on it, you don’t have to decide the time..."
