One Piece: Groudon the Beasts

Chapter 74 Pirates are here, and the village will be at peace!

Three days passed in a flash, and the Beasts Pirates began their vacation. The pirates rushed to various towns, squandering the money in their pockets.

Saving money is not a pirate's habit.

Goode's hot spring resort also welcomed a large number of pirate guests, comparable to when it first opened, when it was packed with people every day.

Especially those who are truly fighting.

The clubhouse has a private hot spring in its backyard.

Speed, dressed in a loose yukata, sat by the hot spring pool, looking at Goode, who was shirtless and sprawled out enjoying himself, with envy in his eyes.

"Good, I never expected that in just half a year, you would become one of the Flying Six, and be so rich and powerful."

"You've also been promoted to a real fighter."

Goode opened his eyes, a smile on his face.

Do you remember our promise?

"."

Speed ​​rolled his eyes.

Of course she remembered, but she had only made a casual joke at the time, and who would have thought that Goode would actually do it.

It's unbelievable to think about it now!

If I had known it would turn out like this
Hehe~~
My mother has excellent taste!

Speed ​​looked at Good with increasing envy. Good's success today was inseparable from the abilities she had acquired. If she could become an ability user, could she also go further?

Goode waved to the girl.

"Come here and sit next to me."

"."

After hesitating for a moment, Speed ​​awkwardly sat down next to Goode. Before he could even settle in, his yukata flew into the air, revealing his naked body.

The burly man pressed down.

"Eh?"

and many more!

She wasn't ready—

puff!
Two hours later
Speed, his hair disheveled, cheeks flushed, and panting heavily, looked at Good with eyes full of indignation.

That bastard didn't even give her time to prepare herself mentally.

Overbearing! Savage!
Goode squinted comfortably.

"You came all this way to see me, surely it wasn't just to talk about love?"

"of course not!"

Speed ​​replied angrily, "The other real fighters asked me to find out if they can learn your money-making methods."

Among the Shinta fighters, only a few had a good relationship with Goode, and she was the one who was closest to Goode, so the Shinta fighters asked her to come and question him.

They're poor!

The most typical problem with being a pirate is the unstable income. Sometimes you can only get a job once every few months, which is not enough to make ends meet.

With just the monthly dividends, it would be gone after two or three trips to the pirate camp. What pirate wouldn't want to live a life of debauchery and be a bride every night?

Seeing how rich Goode is, how could the real fighters not have their own ideas?

"I understand."

Goode nodded with a smile.

As the saying goes, one should not flaunt one's wealth, or one will surely attract unwanted attention.

He deliberately flaunted his wealth in order to get the officials to follow him into the real estate business, because he alone couldn't handle the workload.

Let's give them a taste of the good things first.

"Tell them to wait for me in the reception area."

"it is good!"

Speedy got up with joy, but stumbled and almost fell after taking just one step, with faint bloodstains deep in his thigh.

It hurts!

Damn it, can't they be a little gentler?!

Reception hall.

The room was almost packed with guys, all eagerly waiting. When they saw Goode arrive, they immediately stood up to greet him.

"Lord Goode!"

"Ah."

Goode smiled and glanced around, then suddenly spotted a chubby, furtive figure and raised his eyebrows in surprise.

"Brother Quinn, what brings you here?"

"Mwahaha, Good Brothers."

Quinn rubbed his hands together, looking around: "I heard Little Purple is sick. How is she now? Is she alright?"

"Xiao Zi caught a cold after returning home and needs to rest for ten to fifteen days. It's best not to disturb her during this time."

Goode chuckled and made up a story. He couldn't very well tell Quinn that after his "heart-to-heart talk" with Little Purple last night, he had given her a whack on the delicate bottom with a fire poker, causing her to scream and faint, and that she hadn't woken up yet.

Given Xiao Zi's delicate constitution, she will need at least half a month of recuperation.

"That's good."

Quinn breathed a sigh of relief.

Poor little purple sauce.

Once you've recovered, your brother Quinn will definitely prepare a gift for you!
There are still important matters to attend to.

Quinn sat upright, showing no intention of leaving.

Goode asked in a questioning tone, "Brother Quinn, is there anything else?"

"It's okay, I'll stay here and play for a while!"

Quinn's eyes darted around.

He has to go to class too!
What do world-class scientists lack most?
Research funding, of course!
Researching powerful weapons often involves countless failures, and each failure results in financial losses.

He wants to follow in Goode's footsteps and get rich!
"Okay, you can do whatever you want."

Goode smiled and nodded, without saying anything more.

In fact, what he wanted most was high-ranking officers, and he even wanted to bring Kaido, the boss, into the fray.

Given the size of the pirate crew, the Beasts Pirates have basically reached their limit. No matter how much they develop, they will find it difficult to become a dominant force like the Rocks Pirates. But real estate is different; its development prospects are excellent.

"Cough cough!"

Goode coughed lightly, his serious gaze sweeping over everyone: "Gentlemen, I understand why you're here, and I'm happy to share my methods for making money with you!"

"But I think that with your intelligence, you probably won't be able to learn it, so I plan to let you experience it for yourselves!"

Making money is not an easy task, and teaching a group of brutes to make money is even more difficult, but it's not entirely impossible.

You can just copy it!
"Everyone follow me!"

Jiuli, Bili Village.

The dilapidated village remained poor.

The construction of new towns in each township has a clear planning scope, while the rest of the area remains the same as before, with the land dilapidated and barren, and the people suffering from hunger. At most, they can benefit from going to the new town to get some clean water to drink.

Of course, this was something Good did intentionally.

Only through stark contrast can the prosperity and beauty of the new city be highlighted. Nowadays, housing prices in various new towns are soaring, almost catching up with those in Flower City.

Every day when Goode wakes up, his net worth increases significantly.

The ingenious down payment system not only makes it possible for ordinary people to afford houses, but also tightly binds them, forcing them to work hard to pay off their debts.

"The pirates are coming!"

The villagers of Bianli Village were overjoyed.

Could it be that the pirate has taken a liking to their village?!
Everyone knows about the new town construction now. If Bianli Village can also be demolished and developed, their lives will be much better!

Goode led a group of real fighters to inspect the village and asked, "What do you think these villagers need most?"

"."

The men exchanged glances and shook their heads in unison.

do not know!
Good sighed speechlessly and explained, "These villagers are starving to death. What they need most is food. If you want to make money, you at least need to understand the needs of your target!"

"Oh, that makes sense!"

The pirates suddenly realized.

"But Lord Goode, we have no food on us!"

"I have!"

Goode smiled.

The Taoyuan Farm's grain supply was just enough for the animals to be self-sufficient, with no surplus grain to share, but its warehouses held a large amount of grain.

Can I buy his grain?

Zhen Da was still puzzled: "Lord Goode, these villagers are so poor, can we really make money off them?"

"can."

Goode smiled and said, "Even though they are so poor they can't afford to eat, as long as they are alive, they can create wealth."

"Farming, weaving straw hats, spinning and weaving."

"They can create a lot of value."

"What we need to do is control their food, clothing, shelter, and transportation, making it impossible for them to leave our protection. Only then will they be willing to earn money for us!"

Food, clothing, shelter, and transportation are indispensable conditions for human survival and reproduction. As long as these are firmly controlled, one can influence everything.

Just like White Dance City.

Houses, fields, jobs, and most importantly, order—all of these were in Goode's hands.

The people can't live without him!
"Watch carefully, everyone. I'll only demonstrate once!"

Negotiate, buy land.
The process is already second nature to them.

The villagers, who were on the verge of starvation, had no reason to refuse; on the contrary, they were overjoyed and couldn't wait for the village to be demolished and rebuilt immediately.

Pirates are coming, and the village will be at peace!
