Pirate: I will kill the Celestial Dragon at the beginning
Chapter 256 Oil Boom
"Okay, I agree with your Ten Thousand Worlds Pirates' request."
"Since His Majesty Cobra has agreed, our Ten Thousand Realms Pirates will immediately send a transport fleet to Alabasta with equipment."
"no problem!"
"That's what His Majesty Cobra has decided."
As soon as Cobra hung up the phone, he called out, "Bell!"
"Your Majesty, what's the matter?"
Cobra said: "You immediately lead the army to seal off the area where the oil was discovered. The Ten Thousand Realms Pirates have reached an agreement with us, and they will help us develop the oil."
A smile appeared on Bell's face, and he said, "Is it true? Your Majesty the King!"
Cobra nodded with a smile on his face, and said, "It's true!"
After getting an affirmative answer, Bell couldn't help but said happily: "That's great!"
Cobra said, "Go!"
"Yes!"
Bell walked away briskly.
Bell is no stranger to what oil is.
The Wankai Pirates produced a large number of petroleum products, such as very light washbasins.
Although it is more fragile than metal washbasin, it is very light in weight.
Of course, because of the scarcity of these commodities, the price is relatively high, ordinary civilians cannot afford them, only the rich or nobles can use them.
And some plastic products in Alabasta were sent by other countries when they conducted diplomacy with Alabasta.
Regarding the price of oil, Bell specifically inquired about it, and when he heard about the price of oil, Bell could only say that this thing is simply liquid gold!
Unexpectedly, Alabasta now possesses a large amount of oil, which will definitely improve the living conditions of Alabasta citizens.
The discovery of oil in Alabasta did not cause any fluctuations in the world at first. After all, petroleum products have always been high-end commodities with a small circulation range and very few people know about them.
However, with the entry of the Ten Thousand Realms Pirates, professional prospectors then made a rough estimate of Alabasta's oil reserves, and found that Alabasta's oil reserves can only be described in one word.
That's a lot!
And I don't know when, the price of oil was also known by other people. When other people knew the price of oil, their eyes were red.
Abundant reserves of oil mean that Alabasta can make a lot of money every day even if it does nothing.
It's a pity that Alabasta itself is not bad in national strength, and it is the Pirates of Ten Thousand Realms who add Alabasta oil.
Although the world government is also greedy for Alabasta's oil profits, but as Alabasta is a member country of the world government, the world government's behavior should not be too ugly, otherwise it will arouse the resentment of other member countries.
Moreover, the Kingdom of Alabasta has some special features. Although it has left the holy land of Mariejoa, the royal family of Alabasta still has some contacts among the Tianlong people.
What's more, oil has just been discovered now, and the exploitation has not even started. Although the World Government also has oil processing technology, compared with the Pirates of Ten Thousand Worlds, their technology seems to be somewhat backward.
So the world government intends to wait for the completion of Alabasta's oil processing system before grabbing profits.
As for how to deal with the Pirates of Ten Thousand Realms, at most they will be given more benefits. After all, compared with the huge benefits Alabasta Petroleum has, it is not unacceptable to give some.
After the discovery of oil in Alabasta, there was an upsurge in searching for oil all over the world.
Some of them are supported by national and world governments, and some are supported by wealthy businessmen, but most of them are ordinary people who carry out oil exploration spontaneously with dreams of getting rich.
Because as long as oil is discovered, you can go from a pauper to a billionaire in no time.
In particular, after the boom in oil exploration began, a few people actually discovered oil.
Without exception, the oil discovered by these people was bought by others at high prices.
This result stimulated more ordinary people to join the wave of oil exploration.
After the start of the oil exploration boom, the navy found that the number of pirates actually began to decline.
One of the reasons is that in the past, when people wanted to get rich, they usually became pirates, but now they want to get rich by exploring oil.
After all, it is dangerous to become a pirate and get rich, and the risk of oil exploration is obviously lower than that of being a pirate and robbing things.
Even some pirate groups gave up their career as pirates and became professional oil exploration organizations.
After discovering this phenomenon, the navy was very happy. It is said that Admiral Akainu laughed for 3 minutes in the office.
Afterwards, the navy issued an announcement, that is, as long as the discoverer is willing to sell oil, the navy will buy the discovered oil according to the amount of oil reserves it finds, at least [-] million, with no upper limit.
As soon as this news came out, it triggered a crazier oil exploration boom all over the world.
After seeing the navy's announcement, An Yi couldn't help feeling that there are so many smart people in the navy.
The benefits of oil have led countless people to join the exploration craze, and more people exploring oil will naturally lead to fewer people participating in pirates.
Moreover, the Navy also issued an acquisition message.
From An Yi's point of view, the navy's method is simply a surefire way to make money.
First of all, this method promotes the boom in oil exploration and reduces the number of pirates.
The decrease in the number of pirates will naturally benefit the navy, such as lower combat frequency, fewer casualties, and military expenditures will naturally be saved.
Although you will spend money to buy oil, you must know that compared to the money given to bounty hunters, the money to buy oil is not much.
Besides, when the oil is extracted, can it be sold? By then, the navy will be able to make a lot of money just by selling oil.
However, An Yi does not intend to stop the Navy's approach, although the Navy's aggressive purchase of oil will affect the Ten Thousand Realms Pirates.
But what the navy does will also affect the world government. Don't forget that the navy, as the world government's largest and strongest armed force, has always been the backbone of the world government's military power.
In An Yi's view, although the navy is the enemy of the Myriad Realms Pirates, it is an enemy that can strive to become an alliance.
This is because of the philosophy of the navy. It is undeniable that most of the security in the world today is maintained by the navy, and the navy is indeed just.
But the top navy officials don't know how dirty the world government is. No, they know. After all, the world government let the navy do many things.
But as the most violent institution of the world government, why can't the navy get rid of the control of the world government?
Very simple, one word, money.
The navy is a military organization. A certain Frenchman said that wars are fought over three things: money, money, and money.
The same is true for the navy. As a representative of justice in the world, the navy cannot rob them like pirates if they have no money.
Therefore, the navy must be maintained by the military expenditure provided by the world government, which is also the means by which the world government controls the navy.
Now, the navy has a lot of oil, so in the future, the navy's military expenditure problem will be solved.
Even the navy can completely get rid of the plight of no money by selling a lot of oil.
Once the world government cannot use money to restrain the navy, will the navy still become the combat power of the world government?
There is nothing to be afraid of the world government that has lost its navy. Although the world government still has an army directly under it, the lack of strong people just because of the loss of the navy is not so easy to make up for.
Even the navy may not continue to stand with the world government, but may become a force to destroy the world government.
So not only did An Yi not intend to add trouble to the navy, he also planned to add fuel to the fire.
Anyi will fully open up the technology of internal combustion engines and make oil a product that everyone cannot do without.
"Since His Majesty Cobra has agreed, our Ten Thousand Realms Pirates will immediately send a transport fleet to Alabasta with equipment."
