Struggle to build a country in the world of pirates

Lei Luo stayed in [Cigu City] for more than ten days. One-third of the arable land on the uninhabited island near Winter Island was also cleared, and simple housing and ports were built to remove all threatening animals on the island. They packed it up and left a hundred cattle and sheep on that island. More than a hundred soldiers and civilians settled there, and Lei Luo left half a year's rations for them.

The four major commerce ministers all left their subordinates to purchase raw ore here and promised not to be inferior to others. Allen also opened a bank here. This is the first bank on the Grand Route. It is very meaningful. Ai Lun also held a ribbon-cutting ceremony and took photos.

In terms of the army, Lei Luo asked Doruton to sort it out on his own. The requirement was that the soldiers should be absolutely loyal and not too sophisticated. Most people were still willing to follow Doruton. After the reorganization, there were almost 800 people in the army, and some Anbu were left behind. Help him train his soldiers.

Constance cleaned up the palace treasury, which contained only more than 4 million beli and some jewelry.

Lei Luo kept the jewelry and all the cash to Doluton, and gave him an additional 5 million beli, giving him enough money to build the city.

He was given a set of 500 kilogram training bracelets, taught him the Sixth Form of the Navy, and training methods on how to improve his Devil Fruit, and told him that if he came back for an inspection in a year and found he was unqualified, the city owner would be replaced.

Dr. Gulewa found Lei Luo: "Kids, you all have to leave. Is it time for you to settle my money?"

"I am your new master now, and you are also my subject. You want money to save me?"

"Don't want to give it? Forget it, since you have done a lot of good things for this country, I don't want the money."

"I can give you money, and I've prepared it. It's on the boat. Come and get it yourself!"

"Don't box me in, kid."

"Who am I, Lei Luo? I am the prince of the Hanas Empire, and I keep my word."

Lei Luo looked at Meiya and gave him a look. Lei Luo took Dr. Gureva to the treasure house in the cabin. There were four large boxes inside, filled with gold and silver jewelry.

"You're a little kid who keeps your word." At this moment, the ship moved and set sail.

"You brat, what are you going to do? Where are you taking me?"

"Get on my ship and take my money. Of course you are mine. I still need a medical director. The students in the school are also eager to learn advanced medical technology, so please come back to the Hanas Empire with me. "After saying that, Lei Luo ran away. He was afraid that the old woman would go crazy.

Lei Luo asked Martin, "Where should we go next?" Martin said, "It should be to the Kingdom of Alabasta."

"This country is very big. It is a superpower in the first half of the Great Waterway. It covers an area of ​​more than 60 million square kilometers, but most of it is in desert areas. Its capital is Arupana. It has a standing army of people and the country's population exceeds million."

"The current king - Neferutali Kobra, is the 12th generation king of the Kingdom of Alabasta."

Lei Luo said: "If this country were not a desert, it is estimated that the population would be over 100 million. Although the area is large, it is still useless land. Without food, this country will not be too rich."

Lei Luo thought of something and said: "Does this country have any other energy sources?"

Martin: "I haven't heard of it. [Rape Flower] is a port city in Alabasta and is rich in perfume. I don't know about anything else."

Lei Luo continued to ask: "What are the major cities in Alabasta?"

“Arupana—the capital of the Kingdom of Alabasta and the residence of the royal family.

Yorba - Trading Center of Western Alabasta

Rainland—the pirate gathering place known as Alabasta

There are also cities such as Rapeseed, Eluma, and Cattleya. "

Lei Luo continued: "I will go to Aruba first to meet the king. After all, it is not good to come to visit and just wander around in other people's countries without saying hello."

Constance: "Yes, Your Highness, go directly to the nearest port in Arupana."

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Lelo docked the ship at a port near the Kingdom of Alabasta~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Everyone only brought 100 guards. The port here is still some distance from the royal capital. Constance asked if there were other means of transportation, including renting carriages and camels.

Constance: "We are in a hurry. Give us as many carriages as you have here."

Businessman: "You are so happy. We have a total of 20 carriages, 30 camels, and 3 luxury carriages. We charge you a total of 500W Baileys."

Martin: "What if I bought them? How many would it cost?"

Businessman: "If you buy it, the price is 7000 million beli"

"You really dare to open your teeth. Do you have other means of transportation?"

"No more for now. There are also running ducks and F crocodiles, which are animals that can run very fast in the desert, but I don't have them here."

Martin: "I want all the 5000 million Baileys."

Businessman: "Sir, I'm afraid this is not enough. You have to let me earn something."

Martin: "Do you think this is our first time coming to Alabasta? A carriage costs 80 beli, 23 is 1840 million, and a prime-age camel costs 70 beli. You still have a lot of old ailments." Yes, I won’t let you go, 30 is only 2100 million Baileys, the total is 3940 million Baileys, and you actually made more than 1000 million."

Businessman: "Sir, you are smart. This way, one mouthful of 5500 million beli" "Give you the money" Businessman [feels less]

Minister Gileston: "How can you talk for so long for such a small amount of money?"

Martin: "We have just arrived here and we need transportation. And to develop here, other businesses may not be easy to do. This kind of transportation business is very simple and very popular."

Northern Minister - William Constable: "Minister Martin is so shrewd. No wonder he is highly valued by His Highness."

Martin felt the sourness coming from the three of them. The three ministers of commerce were like blind men here. It was no wonder that His Highness came to discuss something with Martin.

After a day's journey, a few people arrived at the [Capital of the Kingdom of Alabasta - Arupana]. The walls of the capital were still very tall and looked very spectacular.

Lei Luo and others came down specially to take a photo to commemorate the incident, and then notified the city gate guards to ask for instructions from the king.

They continued to ride in the carriage and drove towards the palace.

~~In the Royal Palace of Alabasta, a report was received from the soldiers, [His Royal Highness Lei Luo, the first heir of the Hanas Empire, has arrived in the capital and is heading towards the palace]~~~
