Pirates: Honest Men in the Navy
Chapter 334: Louis: I have tens of thousands of Baileys per second, so why would I do business with
Dorag will not make hasty decisions easily without thinking things through clearly.
Looking at the phone bug, he hesitated for a moment, but finally did not call Louis.
By the time Louis received contact from Dorag, it was already seven days later...
In Smoker's car, Louis was sitting on the sofa in the cabin.
This ship can be regarded as a paradise for old smokers like Louis and Tina. Smoker, a smoke fruit user, has no other hobbies but likes to collect some expensive and even top-quality cigars and tobacco.
Some of them can't be bought with money, and many of them are cigarettes that Louis has never seen before.
However, he only smokes cigarettes specially provided by the Navy Headquarters for admiral level, which are not available outside.
The fleet on Keluta Island had been assembled two days ago, and the first batch of cannon fodder also began an all-out attack on Totland waters.
The momentum of the 'Double White Alliance' was quite strong. Led by the captains of the Whitebeard Pirates, supplemented by troops under Smoker's banner, they quickly broke into the waters of Totland, and the two sides officially started the war.
The current battle situation on the front line is very fierce. Pirate ships of all sizes are entering the battlefield in batches. Although this is just the beginning, the battle has already reached the scale of tens of thousands of people.
Such a battle situation may evolve into hundreds of ships firing at each other on the sea, and the supplies, ships sunk, and rotations will definitely take several days.
However, from the practical significance of combat effectiveness, such a naval battle has no threatening significance to the real top players, such as Louis, Newgate, Charlotte Lingling, Kaido and the others.
No matter who among the above takes action, such a battle can be easily destroyed.
When their strength reaches their level, it no longer makes much sense to pay attention to so-called conventional warfare.
So if that's the case, why do it?
You might as well just set up a ring and the entire octagonal cage for a fight, and the winner will directly win the war.
The specific reason is that both of them are flexing their muscles and showing their dominance to people in the new world and even the world.
Not only are we at the top of our personal strength, but we also have enough troops under our command to suppress all parties.
Without such a large and powerful pirate force, how could the franchised countries staying in the New World obediently hand over protection fees?
And behind the strong military strength, it also represents the prosperity of one's own economy. What are those men who go out to sea to fight for their lives and lick blood at the tip of their swords for?It’s not just for money, power, sex, etc.
At this time, Louis in the cabin was rolling up Smoker's collection of tobacco with a rolling paper while complaining about something to the phone bug on the table...
"Hey, no, boss, do you know what the new world is like now? Anyway, with the four pirates' sphere of influence as the core and spreading outward, it has become a mess.
Every moment, countless cannonballs will spurt out from the red-hot barrels, and I don’t know how many people are fighting bloody battles..." Louis smacked his lips and shook his head.
"Anyway, it's not your turn to take action, right?" Dorag's calm voice came from the phone bug.
"What are you talking about? I'm in the waters of Totlan right now, and I may be attacked by those two pirate ships at any time. It's scary, right?" Louis retorted angrily, and then looked at it carefully. Rolled up a cigarette and nodded with satisfaction.
Although it is indeed within the waters of Totland, the surrounding warships are said to be the front line, but they have not yet reached the most intense front line.
However, I don’t mean to go to the front line now. Anyway, Louis is very capable of holding back. As long as you Kaido and Charlotte Lingling don’t come forward, our navy won’t come forward either.
The fact that the Navy is involved will never be revealed in advance.
But what Louis didn't know was that there was an old gangster named Rayleigh, who was living like a duck in water during this period. He scraped wherever he could and made a lot of money, but he managed to survive every time...
And this old bastard had long known that Louis and his navy had gotten involved in the war, but he just didn't say anything.
Why does he, a retired pirate, care so much?
Just be happy.
"Okay, okay, okay, I can't talk to you. I'll ask you again if you are interested in cooperating." Dorag said directly, too lazy to talk nonsense with Louis anymore.
"No, you talk about cooperation, so you have to give me a cooperation project, right?
...Could it be that you want to buy old equipment that has been phased out by the Navy?If that's the case, forget it, I don't want to have anything to do with you openly. "Louis put the rolled cigarette under his nose and took a puff.
Intoxicating scent!
"Do you think of me as a rag collector?" Dorag frowned and responded in a somewhat unhappy tone.
When Louis heard this tough attitude, he was immediately shocked. He broke away from the smell of tobacco and asked:
"Hey! So, you have money to buy new goods?"
what are you...
Dorag was silent for a while, and then he could only grit his teeth and say in a deep voice: "No..."
That's right, the arms used by Dorag and others were all second-hand goods bought from the black market, and many of them were indeed returned from the navy.
However, the Navy will definitely not sell these retired weapons directly on the black market. Generally speaking, it will first retreat to Mary Joa to receive new equipment.
However, Mariejoia's corruption was very serious, and she quickly resold the arms that should have been destroyed on the black market.
Dolag and the others bought most of their supplies this way.
For example, Doflamingo is engaged in the first-hand arms business, and he is also engaged in the second-hand arms business.
"Then what are you talking about?" Louis rolled his eyes with disdain, but he was secretly relieved.
How could you guys suddenly become rich overnight?
Not like me, Admiral...
Therefore, it is very important to choose a good career and enter a good unit.
"Isn't it because I have no money that I am asking you to cooperate? I think you are also making money everywhere, right?
Your navy must have secretly taken in a lot of the donations that Her Majesty the Queen gives to Marie-Joya every year, right? "Dorag didn't pay attention to Louis' sarcasm, and still said in a deep voice.
From the first meeting with Louis in the Sobel Kingdom to all the subsequent contacts, Dorag knew that this guy would definitely lead the navy to cause trouble.
The shackles of the navy are too great. Its huge size corresponds to massive military expenditures, and no one in the world except Mary Joan can afford it.
Therefore, Dorag has always denied that the Navy can break free from this shackles, but he also believes that Louis should be doing his best to help the Navy.
They are definitely making money secretly!
For example, Louis must have had a hand in the business of Happy Street and Good Luck Lai Group.
Louis smiled after hearing this. Dorag was still too young, so he had eaten a lot secretly. The money Stussy gave Mary Joa was nothing at all.
It is entirely used to control and deceive the world government.
The real boss always ends up in the belly of the navy.
The navy, which has been secretly collecting a large amount of funds in the past few years, has secretly established several underground warehouses under Marinefando.
If nothing else, just save money...
To put it simply, while the Navy Headquarters is frantically making money, at the same time it is asking Mariejoia for military expenses.
Today, the resources within the Windless Belt, the shipbuilding industry, and the military industry under Smoker's command have been able to reduce the navy's military expenditures to a great extent.
You don’t even need to buy it, we make it ourselves!
After going back and forth, the money saved was gone.
This set of 'increase revenue and reduce expenditure' plan was of course planned by Louis. According to the latest evaluation, even if Marie Joa cuts off military expenses, Marine Fando can still maintain normal expenses of about 70.00%.
But this is definitely not enough. This is still a normal state. Once Yan starts a war, it will be a complete waste of money.
So even at this point today, the Warring States Marshal would still give repeated orders, always warning Louis not to act impulsively.
He was just worried that Louis would become swollen and want to start working alone, so he would just start trouble.
In the opinion of Marshal Sengoku, it will take at least five years to truly make the navy independent.
And in the past five years, if you can continue to defraud Mary Gioia of money, why not do it?
Although Louis was very clear about all this and had no intention of exaggerating, the words of the Warring States Marshal were old-fashioned advice for the country, so he just let it go.
On Dolag's side, it is reasonable to suspect that Louis is helping the navy secretly make money.
But obviously, Louis didn't mean to tell him this. Our navy has been fully prepared, not less than yours.
After thinking about it, Louis sighed awkwardly. The helplessness and entanglement in it made people feel sad: "Yes, making money is a troublesome matter."
"Well, so I have a big project here. Let's make money together. I can help you." When Dorag heard this, his voice became slightly louder when he replied.
"How old?" Louis raised his eyebrows.
Judging from the status of a leading big brother like Dolag, the big project he talks about will start with [-] trillion beli, right?
Just when Louis was speculating, Dolag's confident words came over: "Haha, no matter what, there must be two to three trillion Baileys, right?"
Louis:…………
That's it?
Logically speaking, the total value of Goa Kingdom is of course more than that, but most of them are fixed assets. Dolag will not touch those things unless he goes crazy.
He has not contacted Louis for a few days, but he is investigating the trade level of the Kingdom of Goa.
The final conclusion is that it is estimated that there is a market size of [-] to [-] trillion Baileys. As long as you can get it, there will be a steady stream of Baileys in your pocket.
Naturally, Louis, a wealthy man, wouldn't care about this. Smoker spent 3000 billion to do public relations for Mary Gioia.
But now Dorag has been poor for a long time.
Listening to Louis' silence for a long time, Dorag said in a deep voice: "Don't think you're being petty, okay? Maybe you're blinded by the navy's huge mobile military expenditures. You know..."
"No, I'm just a little surprised that you can find such a...'big' business." Louis was silent for a moment, then smiled.
Have a show?
Dorag thought that Louis was moved, so he quickly added to the fire, and immediately said: "Is it big enough? It's not inferior to the one you took me to do in Mariejoia, and besides, it was just a money grab. , as long as we join forces, I will be able to swallow seven and you will swallow it up in no time, how about that?"
"Oh, no, thank you." Louis responded perfunctorily, and then hung up the phone directly.
Why do people who earn hundreds of thousands of beli every second follow you Dorag on a sinful path just for this little money?
Marie Gioia?It was just an accident.
"Hahaha, are you so heartless?" Gion, who was sitting opposite Louis, asked a little funny.
Tina and Smoker in the cabin also laughed. As Louis' confidants, they naturally knew that he was quite confident and they really looked down on Dorag's three melons and two dates.
But before Louis could speak, the phone rang again.
"Tsk, what are you doing? I told you I'm not interested. I'm busy fighting here!" Louis put the cigarette in his mouth, and Smoker, who was sitting next to him, followed up with a look.
"Why don't you keep hanging up on me? I am the leader of the 70-strong GM army, don't you want face?" Dorag complained resentfully at first, and then spoke quickly as if he was afraid that Louis would hang up again. He said quickly:
"Don't worry, there are bigger ones. What I just said is just the beginning..."
"Huh? What's bigger?" Louis frowned slightly, exhaled a puff of smoke and said.
He thought that Dolag was going to drag him into a robbery, cooperating in acting or something.
It sounds like it isn't?
Or do you mean committing crimes continuously?
"Wait a minute, are you targeting Tianjin?" Louis was stunned for a moment and asked.
"Well..." Dorag was also stunned for a moment, and then fell into deep thought...
Yes, why can’t I grab the gold from the sky?
But no, at least not yet...
Dolag reluctantly broke away from this tempting thought, and then said: "No, this is serious business."
"what business?"
"nation…"
