Behind the scenes of One Piece
87. Recruitment
Facing the invitation from the casino owner, Guli said, "I wish for it", collected the sand, and then followed the boss named Claude to a private cafe.
"You appeared quite quickly." After the two sat down, Guli said.
Claude was a bit dumbfounded: "Your Majesty made ten consecutive sweeps on the domino table. Someone has reported it to me a long time ago. Even if those people don't lift the table, I will come out to talk to you."
"What are you talking about?" Gu Li asked curiously.
"Your Excellency, are you an esper?" Claude asked.
Seeing that Guli didn't answer, he continued: "People with abilities are not welcome in the casino. Originally, I wanted to talk to you just to ask you to take less money and leave. You are not welcome here."
Gu Li noticed that he used the word "originally" and continued to ask: "What about now?"
"Now, seeing that you have such good skills, the problem will of course be different."
Claude said and waved his hand, and a servant immediately brought 100 million Baileys in cash on a plate.
He threw a few piles of cash on the table with a bang, bang, bang, and then asked: "Are you interested in coming to our casino to help? I will give you so much money every month."
Gu Li was a little bit dumbfounded.
He originally planned this meeting to win over the casino owner, but as soon as the other party came up, he wanted to recruit him in turn?
Moreover, 100 million Baileys every month means 1000 to 1 million Baileys a year, and only more than [-] million in ten years.
If he wants to make [-] million beli now, where will it take ten years?
So there is no need to think about recruiting yourself.
So he skipped the topic of money and started to inquire about the situation of the three major forces.According to his estimation, as the owner of the largest casino in Magic Valley Town, the other party must understand the meaning of this.
"Boss, how many years have you been running this casino? What do you think of the three major forces in Magic Valley Town?"
Claude indeed knew the three major forces, and smiled when he heard this: "In this Magic Valley Town, old Charlie is deeply entrenched, Toomes is ruthless, and I can only manage this casino carefully, how dare I have any opinions? "
It turns out that the three major forces refer to the three of you!
Guli silently wrote down the names of "Old Charlie" and "Toombs", and then continued to ask: "Only run this casino? Have you never thought of going further?"
Claude immediately understood what Guli meant, with a meaningful smile on his face, and asked: "Who do you represent? How can you let me go further?"
Guli understood that the time had come to raise the flag by pulling the tiger's skin. He himself was a nobody who didn't even have a reward list. It was definitely useless to report his name. If he wanted to report, he could only report the name of Ace or Luffy.
He thought about it and decided to report it to Luffy first. If he wanted to borrow Ace's name, it would be more polite to go back and ask.
So he said seriously: "Our captain is a pirate with a bounty of over [-] million. He will come to Magic Valley Town in a few days."
"The bounty is over [-] million?" Claude was obviously moved, but he still asked cautiously: "Can you tell me which big shot it is?"
Guli shook his head.
Luffy's current bounty is still 3000 million. He will be promoted to the [-] Million Man after defeating Crocodile in a few days. Of course, he can't name him now.
"It's not convenient to say now. Once we have in-depth communication and trust each other, I will let you know."
Claude was obviously interested, so he explained: "To be honest with you, I have already reached the end of running a casino in Magic Valley Town and can't go any further.
But there is still a lot that can be done in other industries!Especially those cheap pubs and hotels at Old Charlie's. If I were to run them, the money I could make would be more than tenfold! "
Guli recalled another name the other party mentioned before, and asked tentatively:
"Don't you have any ideas about Toomes' business?"
Claude shook his head and said: "Toombs is a goods launderer. He has many cooperative merchants who can launder and sell the stolen goods stolen by pirates. I don't have this kind of knowledge, so it's not easy to get started."
Guli asked: "If our captain takes action and helps you kill old Charlie, what can you give?"
Claude said bluntly: "I can hand over [-]% of the profits from the businesses in Old Charlie's hands."
The other party's condition sounds very reasonable, but this is not what Guli wants.
"I don't need profits. What I want is surrender."
"Surrender?" Claude's face immediately darkened.
The meaning of this word is unclear. In his opinion, surrender means handing over everything, including money.
If a stranger suddenly appears in front of you and asks you to surrender, it would be uncomfortable for anyone else.
So his face was uncertain, and he didn't say anything for a long time.
At this time, a servant came over and whispered in his ear: "Boss, that big pirate Bellamy is here again. This time he wants to find you by name, and he is very urgent."
"Oh?" Claude's face immediately showed a very interested look.
He immediately stood up and said to Guli: "I'm very sorry, I suddenly remembered something. Would you like to wait for me here for a while, or should we talk next time?"
Gu Li pondered for a second and said, "I'll wait for you."
Just when Claude confessed and turned around to leave, Guli formed a seal with his hands and used his clone to become himself, while his real body turned into a small sticker and was secretly attached to the back of the boss's suit.
He just followed Claude around and came to another elegantly decorated compartment.
"Hahahaha, Boss Claude, we meet again!" Bellamy came up to him as soon as they met, sticking out his tongue.
Claude didn't like his style very much and took a step back before sitting down.
"How did Boss Claude think about what I said last time?" Bellamy asked impatiently as soon as he sat down.
Claude pondered for a moment, shook his head and said, "What you said about the 'new era' last time, to be honest, I don't quite understand."
Bellamy grinned and said, "You don't understand such a simple meaning? It means that the era of Roger the Pirate King pursuing adventure is over! Now is the era when everyone is divided and competing for the sphere of influence!"
Claude nodded: "I understand this, but I'm just a casino owner, what does it have to do with the new era?"
Bellamy looked at Claude with contempt: "Times have changed, and everyone has to change with them! It doesn't matter whether you open a casino or become a pirate!
In short, the big shot behind me has set his sights on this happy place in Magic Valley Town!If you are willing to join us, you can manage this place for him. If you are not willing, then get out of here! "
Bellamy said, suddenly taking out the dagger and inserting it on the table with a thud, startling Claude.
"You appeared quite quickly." After the two sat down, Guli said.
Claude was a bit dumbfounded: "Your Majesty made ten consecutive sweeps on the domino table. Someone has reported it to me a long time ago. Even if those people don't lift the table, I will come out to talk to you."
