Farming in Pirate World

(); "interesting place?"

Seeing that Li Ming was not interested in "happy things", the guide secretly said that he had made less extra money. Just when he was feeling disappointed, Li Ming stuffed another note into his palm.

The guide immediately smiled and served Li Ming with a more enthusiastic attitude.

He glanced at the ticket quietly and saw that this tip was more than the kickback he got from being a "Turtle Master".

"We have a lot of fun places here."

"Look, there is a tavern over there. It looks like an ordinary tavern, but in fact, underground boxing matches are held from time to time. There will be one the day after tomorrow. I heard that boxers are being recruited now. The winners will receive generous bonuses, and there are even some pirates. I also come back to join in the fun, and many bosses will take a look when they meet."

"Pirates?"

Upon hearing this, Li Ming suddenly became a little interested.

The Fishman doesn't have much money left, and there will be a long voyage ahead, all of which will require money.

“Maybe we can raise a little money here?”

"Yes, there will be pirates participating!"

The guide nodded quickly, rolled his eyes, and whispered next to Li Ming:

"And I heard that the boss hosting the boxing match is the legendary King Shichibukai..."

"Sand Crocodile?!"

"It turns out you've heard of it too, guest."

The guide smiled sheepishly. He thought this was his exclusive news, but it turned out that so many people already knew it.

But does Li Ming know any exclusive information? Now when he heard the name of Wang Xia Qiwuhai, he felt a little scared.

The plot of Winter Island has been messed up by him, so forget about important plots like Alabasta.

Li Ming shook his head and gave up the idea of ​​making extra money here.

"Anything else?"

"Others? Then we have to count our Alabasta casino—Yu Yan's branch!"

"That's the casino run by Mr. Sand Crocodile. It's absolutely safe, and there's plenty of fresh water inside, so you can drink to your fill!"

"Speaking of which, ours is quite a port city. Otherwise, Mr. Crocodile wouldn't open a casino branch here."

"what about others?"

"There is also a luxury hotel run by Mr. Sand Crocodile, right next to Yuyan..."

Li Ming interrupted the enthusiastic guide. As soon as the guide mentioned the sand crocodile, his face showed a crazy expression, as if the sand crocodile was some great figure.

"Are there no industries here that have nothing to do with Sand Crocodile?"

"Irrelevant?!"

Upon hearing Li Ming's words, the guide's face suddenly frowned, his attitude changed drastically, and his look at Li Ming became unkind.

"Do you have any grudges with Mr. Sand Crocodile..."

"There is no grudge, but Sand Crocodile is a pirate after all. Even the King Shichibukai is a pirate after all."

"Don't confuse Lord Sand Crocodile with those bastard pirates! He is the patron saint of Alabasta!"

As the guide spoke, he suddenly became angry. Looking at Li Ming's eyes here, it was as if he saw the enemy who killed his father.

"Asshole, how dare you look down on Lord Sand Crocodile."

As he said that, the guide immediately clenched his fists, threw the money Li Ming gave him from his arms on the ground, stepped on it angrily, cursed in his mouth, and turned away.

"It's really unlucky to meet such a customer for my first order today."

This is directly not doing Li Ming's business.

"Is the sand crocodile's prestige in Alabasta actually so important..."

Li Ming found a few more guides, but when asked about sand crocodiles, these people all looked like they were mindlessly worshiping them.

As long as Li Ming showed the slightest dissatisfaction with Sand Crocodile, these people would simply stop doing business with him, and some would even greet his relatives.

Under this situation, Li Ming had no intention of looking for a guide again, so he found a tavern on the side of the road and sat in the corner.

Ordinary people here have such a strong admiration for Sand Crocodile that they cannot ask for any useful information.

If you want to collect information, the tavern is definitely the most ideal place.

Sure enough, with just a glass of wine, Li Ming was able to get a clear picture of the general situation in Alabasta, and even gained some unexpected results.

The internal situation in Alabasta was very bad. The rebellion lasted for nearly three years, seriously consuming the power within the kingdom, but it had not yet reached the point of tension.

The King of Alabasta's prestige is deeply rooted in the country. Even if it hasn't rained in the country for three years, many people still choose to believe in him.

Those people who were displaced because their homes were drying up heard some rumors and had doubts about the king's behavior, so they formed a revolutionary army.

To put it bluntly, they could only be regarded as a large-scale "demonstration", but the problem was not solved, and the anger accumulated and turned into a qualitative change, and then they wanted to use force to scare the king.

It's not overthrowing, it's shocking.

In the king's eyes, he already knew the mastermind behind the kingdom, but he didn't know who this person was.

In his opinion, these rebels were also his citizens, so he strongly refused to allow the king's guards to fight with each other and advocated a peaceful solution.

But there is nothing to do.

In short, the two sides are temporarily in an ambiguous relationship, with serious antagonism, but they always have a certain tolerance for each other.Even if there is a small friction, it is always controlled within a reasonable range.

However, as the rebel army gradually grows, this delicate balance is slowly becoming unbalanced. The relationship between the two parties is like a powder keg. It only takes a small spark to detonate in an instant.

Regarding the sand crocodile, Li Ming did not collect any nutritious information.

In this rebellion, Sand Crocodile stayed away from the contradictions and "protected" the country by himself.

As long as a pirate lands, Sand Crocodile will definitely arrive at the scene as quickly as possible, and then quickly arrest the pirate under the watchful eyes of everyone.

"It's really smart."

I have to say that after listening to Sand Crocodile’s “entrepreneurial path”, even Li Ming admired him a little.

Based on his business acumen alone, Sand Crocodile is definitely one of the best experts in the pirate world.

If he didn't become a pirate, he might become a good businessman.

The most interesting thing is that Li Ming also received news that Sand Crocodile will come to the Yuyan branch in this city the day after tomorrow to express condolences to the employees for their work.

But combined with the news Li Ming had received before, a mysterious boxing match would be held in this city the day after tomorrow, which made him think it was more intriguing.

"The boxing match may just be a bait, a way to recruit members of the Baroque Studio or execute pirates to increase their reputation."

However, these have nothing to do with him.

According to the plan, a group of them will go to sea before tomorrow night and continue their voyage.

Even if a crocodile breaks his head in this city, these things have nothing to do with him.

However, after coming out of the tavern, Li Ming immediately went to the nearby police station and called the police directly, saying that he saw pirates on the street and would probably arrive here tomorrow or the day after tomorrow.

The Sand Crocodile wants to deal with the pirates before the King's Army to enhance his reputation and secretly lower the King's reputation. Wouldn't it be better if the King's Army reacts in advance?

With the ability of Li Ming and his team, it would be very risky to start a head-on battle with the Sand Crocodile. Li Ming had no intention of confronting the Sand Crocodile, but he was still willing to give him some trouble.
