Pirates: Knowledge is power

"Is that boatman trustworthy?" Victoria asked suddenly.

Drum thought for a while and replied: "It's quite believable. After all, the other party's mind is not complicated..."

"Do you need to prepare more Baileys? To be prepared..." Victoria asked Drum.

She doesn't think that 800 million Baileys for a ship is a bit much. After all, it may not only be the cost of the ship, but also other things...

She still knew a little about Dram's secrets, especially as there were many experimental supplies in Dram's luggage.

This lets Victoria know that Dram is not only powerful, he may also be a scientist...

"You're right, then prepare one billion Baileys, and the rest of the Baileys... then I'll leave it to you to manage them, Victoria."

"it is good."

The next day, when Durham handed all the baileys needed for shipbuilding into Tom's hands, Tom was so shocked that he couldn't close his mouth for a long time.

He has seen customers who spend a lot of money before, but this is the first time he has seen a person like Dram who can make a billion beli in a single move.

The last time he saw so many Baileys was in a bank vault...

After giving all the money needed for shipbuilding to Tom, Dram also took some time off and exchanged several psychology books from the system to find ways to get the Mountain King out of the shadows.

For half a month, Dram read in his room during his free time. When resting at night, he would go to a nearby pub to relax with two glasses of wine and inquire about information.

As for other things, he wouldn't be needed with Victoria's help.

For half a month, Durham's life was ordinary, until this day...

A badly damaged dog-headed warship arrived at the port of the Capital of Seven Waters. When the warship first entered the port, it was still emitting black smoke...

A stout, middle-aged man wearing a lieutenant general's cloak stepped out of the warship, followed by a colonel-level man behind him.

The lieutenant general scratched the back of his head and sounded helpless.

"Oops, I thought I could make it to the Navy Headquarters, but I didn't expect that I wouldn't be able to survive just here. It's really a headache."

Walking behind him was a man who looked to be about twenty years old. He had a black knife on his waist and said helplessly:

"Then don't fight on the ship! Lieutenant General Garp, if the battle between you and Roger hadn't been so fierce, how could the warship have been damaged to such an extent! We couldn't even return to Marinefando!"

"Uh hahaha, sorry, sorry, I will pay attention next time. After all, Roger is very strong. I can't catch him without using all my strength..."

"Lieutenant General Garp couldn't catch him even though he tried his best..."

"Roadless Race!!"

When his sore point was mentioned, Garp raised his hand and angrily punched the adjutant.

He beat the adjutant directly and held his head in pain.

Obviously he and Roger are about the same strength, but they have never been able to capture each other into the city. This has always been something Garp doesn't want to be mentioned.

Although the relationship with Roger's enemy and friend is indeed quite good, after all, the pirate navy belongs to a different camp.

Garp has his own justice, which is also the belief he carries.

Daotong did not plan ahead and captured Roger personally and pushed him into the city. This is the greatest respect that Garp has for Roger, his old rival!

"Go and repair the warship quickly. We must return to Marinevando as soon as possible!" Garp said with his fist raised.

"Yes!" Although the adjutant was dissatisfied with Garp, he did not dare to disobey Garp's order, so he could only leave to find a shipwright to repair the warship.

With nothing to do, Garp looked at the surrounding buildings and licked his nostrils.

"What should we do next..."

Drum was currently in a bar, holding a glass of sake with a low alcohol content and sipping it in small sips.

The bartenders on the side could only look at him speechlessly, drinking a glass of wine slowly for two hours. This was the first time he had seen such a person in more than ten years of working.

But as a bartender, he couldn't make a sound to drive away customers. He could only watch Drum occupy the position of a customer who could drink a bottle of wine in one go, and drink slowly bit by bit.

And Drum didn't care about the bartender's weird look. He was in the bar originally wanting to collect some information...

But after staying for two days, he gained absolutely nothing, so he could only regard it as a place to kill time.

Although Drum didn't like drinking very much, it was not appropriate to go to the bar without ordering anything, so he had to order a drink with a lower alcohol content...

"Waiter! We've paid for all the wine here!"

At this time, the door of the bar was pushed open, and a group of fierce-looking guys walked in from the outside.

There were ten of them in total, and each of them looked fierce, with an average height of more than 1.8 meters.

Especially the leader is the tallest, nearly 2.4 meters tall, which is a head taller than Dram...

When they appeared in the bar, everyone except Durham looked at them with fear.

"That's the Hulk Gang, why are they here?"

"I came here to drink, but looking at how menacing they are, they definitely want to have sex for free again, so I lower my head in shame."

"Yes, yes! I also lowered my head to see which culprit would pay for them."

Many locals in the Seven Waters City knew this group of people who came to the bar. They were a group of gangsters who were hated by everyone and fought and made trouble...

The Hulk Gang has their shadow behind all kinds of complaints. Anyway, they are the restless masters of the gang.

Their leader rarely did bad things because of his strength.

The boss of the Hulk Gang laughed and walked to the bar with a ferocious expression, put his arm around Drum's shoulders, and said to the bartender:

"Bring me all the good wine you have here, and this kid will pay for it!"

After speaking to the bartender, he approached Drum with an arrogant look, looking like a villain who was successful and a bit threatening:

"Hey! Boy, do you have any objections?"

After the man spoke, the bartender placed bottles of good wine on the bar as if he had expected it.

Then he walked up to Dram and said, "Sir, you have spent a total of two hundred thousand beli. This store does not support the debt, so please pay it on the spot."

Drum shook the cup in his hand and said with a smile: "I just ordered a glass of wine, worth two hundred thousand beli. What is your wine made of? Gold?"

The bartender smiled very proudly, as if he expected Dram to pay, and said: "Sir, you didn't just order this one glass of wine, the wine you invited these people to drink, plus the glass in your hand .

I also gave you a zero, a total of two hundred thousand beli!

These are all good wines, two hundred thousand beli, and I still lost money! "
