Pirate: I am the nephew of Akainu

Chapter 87 One Billion Bailey

Are you surveyed?
It's much lighter than I thought.

Until he hung up the phone, Zhan Guo didn't say who he would send to supervise Hughes.

Not to mention when the investigators sent by the world government will arrive.

Therefore, assisting in the investigation is just empty words, an excuse to evade the world government.

It's just that Hughes can't act unscrupulously like before, and he will disappear from public view for a while.

Return the phone bug to Kyle, who is also prepared for the punishment afterwards.

But she didn't expect that the punishment given by the Marshal of the Warring States would be so light: "Marshal of the Warring States, I still prefer you. If it were someone else, I might have to go to the four seas to guard the island."

The punishment of going to the four seas to defend the island is generally used in the case of Hughes.

Offending the world government or the Tianlong people, and not making too serious mistakes, not punishing them violates legal principles, and punishing them too seriously violates reason.

Simply go to the world and stay away from the world government.

Ansheng lived for a few years, and after thinking of a reason to transfer back, the world government probably forgot about it.

It was the first time that Hughes was punished like this.

Hughes shrugged his shoulders and said relaxedly: "Yes, I think so too. It is the matter of the base that will be handled by you. From now on, my vacation life will begin."

It would be nice if he could take a break, Hughes lay flat on the chair, thinking about the more interesting aspects of the Pirate World.

It’s been two or three years since I’ve been here. Apart from catching pirates, I haven’t gone out to have fun. It’s time to relax.

Kyle knew what Hughes was thinking when he saw Hughes looking like I was going to lie down.

"Forget about vacation." Kyle put the phone bug back in place, opened the hidden compartment in the filing cabinet, and took out a thick stack of documents from it.

The document was placed on Hughes' desk, and it was more than ten centimeters thick.

Seeing this, Hughes shrank his body down. He suddenly felt that the arrangement of the Warring States Period was very suitable, and it was time to retreat to the front line.

In the past, as long as Hughes confessed, Kyle would turn a blind eye and turn a blind eye. Anyway, let Hughes do business, it is better to let him go out and fight.

But not this time.

Kyle stacked the above documents in front of Hughes and divided them into seven parts with different heights.

"These four are part of the four seas." Kyle pointed to the other three stacks and said: "These three are the first half of the great route, the new world, and the intelligence center that Garr is in charge of."

"Their purpose is very simple. They are all asking you for money. We miscalculated one thing. The establishment of an intelligence organization all over the world will cost far more money than we expected."

Since it is not an internal matter of the Navy, Hughes will not shirk it.

Pick up a document on the Four Seas Region.

The above stated in detail why this intelligence officer needed financial support. After reading several copies in a row, Hughes' face became more and more serious.

It's not that these people are enriching their own pockets, on the contrary, these brainwashed family members are very appreciative of what Zi Zi has done.

None of them practiced favoritism, and all the requests they made were very reasonable.

It is precisely because of the rationality of these requests that Hughes is worried, because agreeing to the requests of these people requires a very large sum of money.

He picked up a document, which was an application from an East China Sea intelligence officer.

The intelligence officer's disguised identity is a businessman, and he needs to use this identity to break into the East China Sea business circle to obtain this level of intelligence.

And this requires a lot of money to prepare the goods, as well as a series of expenses such as the subsequent employment of crew members, which requires about 3000 million Baileys.

This amount of money is not a lot, and 3000 million Belisius can still be squeezed together.

But among the seven stacks of documents in front of him, there are not a few large-scale applications like this, and there are even hundreds of millions of funding applications.

Hughes could reject these applications and let them choose other identities.

But valuable information is never circulated at the bottom. Those civilians who only care about what they eat every day have almost no value in their mouths.

Forging new identities for these families is also a very important part of the intelligence system.

If it weren't for the accumulation of wealth before the Whiskey Mountain, allowing the intelligence organization to complete the foreshadowing, then these problems would have been exposed very early.

Now that the Baileys accumulated by Whiskey Peak have been spent, Hughes needs further capital injection.

Putting down the documents in his hand, Hughes said with a serious face: "If all of their requests are agreed, how much will it cost?"

"20 billion Baileys, this is not counting the possible follow-up situation." Kyle said with a pointed finger: "For example, those family members who pretend to be merchants are at risk of being robbed by pirates during the trade, and those who mix in Family members in the kingdom system also need money to manage relationships for subsequent promotions."

"Together with all the miscellaneous things, we need to prepare at least 30 billion Baileys."

Watching Kyle say 30 billion Baileys lightly, Hughes wanted to pinch her neck and question, do you think money can fall from the sky.

Even if money can be dropped from the sky, it will take a long time to drop 30 billion Baileys.

Hughes sighed and leaned back on the chair, looking hopeless.

If the salary paid by the navy is used to offset the bill, it will not be enough to make up 30 billion in this life. Even if you bring Kyle and Akainu, it will be impossible in this life.

What's more, the 30 billion is only the current expenditure of the intelligence organization, not counting the funds needed for subsequent development.

"Of course, there's no need to be so pessimistic. According to my calculations, many of the identities that these family members have involved in are profitable, and they can completely worry about their own expenses."

After some screening, Kyle found that the vision of these family members is very good, as long as they can operate stably, they can also feed back the intelligence organization.

This is also due to the previous identities of the family members.

After working as pirate hunters in Whiskey Mountain for so long, they knew exactly what kind of business made money and who had money.

Hughes' eyes lit up after hearing this: "So, can you save a lot of money?"

"That's not going to happen." Kyle said seriously: "The income is all in the future, and we still need to invest 30 billion Baileys as start-up capital in the early stage."

Hughes was paralyzed again, and he couldn't breathe under the pressure of 30 billion Baileys.

Kyle also knows the difficulties, and she also thought of a solution: "We can suspend the development of the intelligence organization and spend more time on the layout, which will cost less money."

"I calculated that as long as the timeline is extended to ten years, we only need [-] million Berries to complete the initial investment."

Exchanging time for money is a helpless move in many cases.

In Kyle's view, ten years is not a long time, not to mention the new generation like her and Hughes, even Akainu can afford to wait.

Hughes shook his head and rejected Kyle's proposal.

He knows better than anyone what will happen in the next few years. If it takes ten years to deploy an intelligence network, then what is the meaning of the intelligence network?

In less than a year, when Luffy goes out to sea, this sea will usher in a new chapter.

Ten years is too long.
