Pirate: I partnered with Zefa to build a new navy!

After Ortoron and Flying Squirrel returned to G-5, they spent more than two months quietly. As expected, Spangdyne did not break their promise, and quickly transferred a large number of unemployed boatmen from the Seven Waters Capital. Master Tom and I were all sent to G-5.

At this time, in the office of the base director in Ortorun, he was lying on the table writing a plan.

On the sofa opposite the desk, Flying Squirrel was sitting there, holding documents in his hand and reporting some news.

"Yixiao has already entered into a good state regarding troop training. However, we still lack generals who can lead people out. If we only rely on Yixiao alone, it is still not efficient enough. When are you going to deceive people from your headquarters?" Flying Squirrel asked. .

Nowadays, the division of labor in their G-5 three-person gang is that Ortorun is probably in charge of the overall situation, and Flying Squirrel is responsible for being Ortorun's assistant to check for leaks and fill in the gaps. Yixiao basically lives outside with the G-5 fleet. Constantly looking for pirates to train and strive to raise G-5's naval combat effectiveness to the elite level.

With Yixiao's strength, as long as he doesn't provoke any top bosses in the new world, he can survive now, so Oltorun can rest assured.

"I have been in contact with Gion. She said that after she gets rid of the work at hand, she will apply to be transferred to our G-5." Ortorun said without raising his head.

That's right, the first person Oltorun poached was Gion. He had a better relationship with Gion, was more familiar with and understood Gion, and had a higher degree of trust.

In addition to Gion, Ortorun has also contacted two guys, Huo Shaoshan and Kake. However, Huo Shaoshan is currently performing a secret mission and cannot escape in a short time, so he cannot come.

As for Jia Ji, he has now snuck into Garp's hands. Together, these two people are like rotten fish looking for rotten shrimps. They eat, drink, whore and gamble all day long. They have become a beautiful sight in the headquarters, and they are a bad duo. .

Kuzan, on the other hand, was promoted to lieutenant general and became a base commander. Now he no longer hangs out with Garp that old guy.

That guy Jia Ji was originally not interested in G-5, mainly because he didn't want to work under Ortorun, because he always felt that Ortorun was his love rival.

However, after Ortorun revealed that he had invited Gion to work here, and Gion had already agreed.

Jiaji agreed without saying a word, saying that he would report to Garp when he had time and come to G-5 as an outside assistant.

That is to say, in name, he is still a direct subordinate of Garp, but in fact, he will come to work in G-5. This is fine, it complies with the rules and regulations, and there is no need to be sneaky.

After receiving Jiaji's reply, Ortorun was also very emotional. This boiling sheep is really useful!

Speaking of which, the New World has been very lively in recent times. Moonlight Moria, Donquixote Doflamingo, Joracol Mihawk and others have begun to exert their efforts in the New World. , a lot of things happened. Today someone attacked Wang Zhi's Honeycomb Island, and tomorrow someone clashed with the Big Mom Pirates. The confrontation between the old and new forces has already begun to break out in the new world.

And it's not just the people in Ortoron's impression. Apart from Doflamingo and the others, there are also a large number of powerful pirates that Ortoron has no memory of at all. They are also making trouble in the new world. rain.

It is estimated that this group of people will either become the stepping stones for the Four Emperors in the future, or they will become the resources of the Four Emperors and be annexed.

But now, they are still very passionate and passionate.

For example, over at Yixiao, I have met a guy named Sluk Mingde many times. That guy is a superman with the ability to crush fruits. He is very arrogant and really powerful. He fought fiercely with Yixiao several times and was not killed. !

However, in this new world, there is really a force that is relatively transcendent, and that is the Whitebeard Pirates. Ever since Sand Crocodile Crocodile challenged Newgate and lost, there has been no more power for a long time. There is news about a powerful character challenging Whitebeard.

But the Whitebeard Pirates are also real fish. As long as no one provokes them, they don't seem to cause much trouble. Of course, the main ones here are the members of Whitebeard's group. The miscellaneous pirate groups under his command are still He is very active, causing trouble in various sea areas, and fighting with the pirates of the new era.

Occasionally, some powerful characters would trigger Newgate to personally come forward and adopt him as his adopted son or something.

Seeing that Ortolon had already made arrangements, Flying Squirrel did not press the matter any further. Instead, he continued to report: "As for our warship building, we first have to find a suitable island to build as a shipbuilding island. , this island cannot be too far away from our G-5 base, and we need to station troops on it for protection..."

"Do you have any suitable recommendations?" Ortoron asked.

"Yes, I have circled suitable islands on this chart. You can just pick one yourself." The flying squirrel directly took out a chart from the folder in his arms and placed it on Ortorun's table.

Ortorun nodded, put the chart away, and did not go to look at it immediately.

The Flying Squirrel was not surprised and continued: "But shipbuilding is not just about technology. We need a large amount of suitable wood, as well as various equipment such as machine tools. This is not the most important thing. I did a survey. It is estimated that once the shipbuilding plan is launched, our financial pressure will be very high. Just smiling and killing pirates will not be able to maintain the operation of the shipbuilding department. We need a more stable source of funds!"

When it comes to funds, Ortorun is a little confused. He is not a professional, and he really doesn't know how expensive firewood and rice are.

The previous "troops stationing in various countries" plan can only solve certain problems in terms of military resources and military expenditures. However, the G-5 headquarters' military expenditures still need to be solved by themselves. The Navy headquarters will not provide you with support, so you can only rely on it. Plundering pirates, in this part, being able to maintain a balance of payments is already considered very good.

Where can I find the money left to build ships?

Ortorun actually thought about activating the Golden Land on Sky Island...but in the end, he suppressed this idea. It was not suitable. The current G-5 is not so capable of eating. Once this terrifying amount of money is exposed, it will be very troublesome.

"In terms of funding channels, do you have any good ideas or suggestions?" Altorun rubbed his forehead and asked irritably.

The flying squirrel was silent for a moment, then gritted his teeth and said, "Yes, but maybe the reputation is not very good..."

"How do you say that?" Ortorun asked with a raised brow.

reputation? What is reputation? Is it important to have money?

"Protection fee!" Flying Squirrel said in a deep voice.

Ortorun was stunned for a moment and said in surprise: "Aren't we always collecting protection fees? Garrisoning troops is a type of protection fee, but since they have already been stationed, it would be a bit unethical to ask for a price. , I guess those princes and nobles are not so easy to let go..."

"I'm not talking about the garrison's protection fee. What I mean is that we can start the commercial travel protection fee and levy protection fees and tolls on merchant ships passing through the waters within our jurisdiction..." Flying Squirrel said with a somewhat evasive look. .

After hearing this, Oltorun was silent for a moment and then said: "Your boy's bottom line is getting lower and lower... Isn't this really a pirate who blocks the road?"

Pirates are not always the kind of vicious people who want to kill everyone. Big pirates who are a little more mature know how to fish in a sustainable way.

For caravans that are hunted by them, they usually withdraw a part of the funds as 'protection fees'. As long as the money is paid, people are allowed to pass.

After all, if you kill all these caravans, who will dare to come again in the future?

No one is here, why do you continue to suck blood?

Hearing this, Flying Squirrel also said helplessly: "What else can we do? I'm not a business genius. The only solutions I can think of are these bad ideas..."

"If we expand the scale of this shipbuilding industry, while building warships, can we also bring conventional ships with us and start a ship-selling business? Is this possible?" Ortorun pondered for a moment. asked.

"I don't know. I haven't studied this before. If you ask me, I still need to find a business talent. I'm really confused about the funding problem. We are all big bosses. How can we understand this? "The flying squirrel said very helplessly.

After hearing this, Ortorun scratched his head, looked at the chart that the flying squirrel had placed on the table just now, and set his sights on the Chambord Islands... He didn't know about Gilder Tezzolo either. , are you there now?

Why don't you take some time to take a look?
