Chapter 147: A Lot of Money
After a slight pause in his glass, Locke's eyes were in a trance.
Once upon a time, he was a hero on the battlefield, leading countless warriors in bloody battles.
He is loyal to His Majesty and has blood in his heart. But time has passed, the family and country are not there, and the beautiful woman who once accompanied her has long since turned into a skeleton and entered the earth.
Looking back on the past, the eventful years are embarrassing. The general has changed to the past, but the legend of the pirate hunter is beginning to echo above the sea.
"Haven't you had a dream of being a general since you were a child? Locke!"
Hughson's words rang out again, and Locke woke up.
He hesitated slightly, then sighed, "Xiusen, you must know that we are only one of that person's subordinates now. ”
Indeed, Luo Chen owned the entire island at this time, and he didn't know how many people's lives he was holding in his hands, let alone how many people were willing to flatter and do things under his command. And he, in the end, is just a defeated, and trust is a problem in the first place.
"You think too much, Locke, Luo Chen is not such a stingy person. ”
"You have a lot of insights into knowing people, but you don't see the fact that this guy has a heart in the world and ambitions are bigger than the sky?"
"And people with such ambitions have always cared about such trivial things as you and me. ”
"Those who achieve great things are not informal, is Luo Chen such a person who even you and I dare not use?"
After a few words, Locke's body was stunned and he thought again.
Becoming a general, leading soldiers, and fighting on the battlefield for those he is loyal to has been his dream since he was a child. Andoro Island is in ruins at the moment, and every day changes surprise him, and Luo Chen's imposing appearance of wanting to do great things also makes him tempted.
Working under such a strong and ambitious person, I don't know what position I can climb to in the future.
There is no doubt that this is the best opportunity to make your dreams come true.
"You're right, if Luo Chen doesn't even dare to use me, then he doesn't deserve to be one of the emperors of the sea!"
A smile appeared on Locke's face, and then he stared at Xiusen Dao again.
"What about you?"
"Me?"
Xiusen was stunned.
"Yes, if I am under him, what about you?"
Locke asked in a deep voice.
They are brothers, although they once wanted to kill each other when they met because of some contradictions, but after all, blood is thicker than water, and deep in their hearts, that friendship is still there.
"I, I'm the captain of the Xiusen Pirates, and now that I'm under Luo Chen's command, I'm naturally the sharpest knife in his hand. ”
"When everything is stable on Andoro Island, it's time for this rising emperor to expand his territory!"
"At that time, you were the inside, and I was the outside!
Xiusen smiled, seeing his position very clearly.
Locke's eyes narrowed, and he said worriedly, "But if that's the case, your safety?"
He didn't go on, if he was the pioneering knife under Luo Chen, he would naturally face countless strong enemies, and at this time, Luo Chen's generals were scarce, except for his own partners, there was no other, and he could be called a lonely person.
The best way to do such a dangerous thing is naturally to leave it to Xiu Sen to do.
"It's going to be sad at first, but soon, this adult will. ”
As he spoke, Xiusen suddenly shook his head and laughed.
"And, Locke, I'm just doing the work of licking blood from the knife edge, and it doesn't seem to be any different from before!"
Locke was stunned for a moment, then sighed.
On the seventh day of the occupation of Andoro, the whole island had been completely renewed. At the four port ports in the southeast, northwest, and northwest, high guard towers were erected, equipped with light armor, and the garrison army stood side by side, garrisoning the port. In addition, there were bands of soldiers patrolling the streets back and forth.
The entire island was now under the control of this newly established army. Whether it is law and order, or the weather, it has changed dramatically.
And the government building, as well as Luo Chen's palace, are already halfway through construction.
The Red Flame Skull Banner hung high in the center of the city, and when the sea breeze blew, the hunt shook and exuded a hideous and majestic aura outward.
A flag makes the pirates in the four seas fearful, and no one dares to invade again.
Defeating Kaido's prestige brought Luo Chen a prestige that no one dared to offend, and it also made him famous on the sea.
Anyone with vision can naturally see that the rise of this overlord is unstoppable. At this time, if you touch the moldy head, you may be able to achieve great things when he is still young, but in the same way, it is easy to be slapped to death.
Many of the pirates had long since given up on the idea of fighting for Andoro and instead targeted the rest of the islands.
There are more than 30 islands, and even if there is no one, there are many more, isn't it?
On this day, Luo Chen was half-lying on the golden silk nanmu dragon chair carefully prepared for him by the ministers, listening to the reports of the three ministers.
"Your Excellency, the taxes collected in the latest batch are about 230 million, and they are part of the necessary part of the operation of Andoro Island, that is, the ones that you have commanded. ”
"There are about 120 million left. ”
The Chancellor of the Exchequer said cautiously.
"120 million?"
Luo Chen frowned slightly.
The three ministers below seemed to see Luo Chen's expression change, and they immediately trembled and frightened.
They know that pirates have a perverted penchant for money and other things, and most of them occupy the islands for the purpose of enjoying life and making money.
"Don't worry, my lord, this is just a week's tax, and now that the island of Andoro is much more stable, merchants are more willing to come here, and the daily transaction volume is increasing rapidly. ”
The Chancellor of the Exchequer explained profusely.
However, this did not soften Luo Chen's indifferent expression in the slightest.
"My lord, our new army has swept up this time, and those who don't obey the adults have also gained a lot of money from it. ”
"The amount, converted to Bailey, is about 20 billion, and if you need money, this is not a problem at all. ”
Suddenly, the Minister of Military Affairs stood up and said loudly.
"More than 20 billion?!"
Luo Chen looked up, a little surprised.
The merchants who were killed by him had such a lot of money?
"Yes, the exact amount is still being counted, but it must be only a little more. ”
The Minister of War affirmed, and after a pause, he glanced at the Chancellor of the Exchequer.
"I handed over this matter to Faun after preliminary statistics, and I believe he will figure it out quickly. ”
"Yes, yes, please rest assured, I will do my best to count the specific amount of this property as soon as possible, and then send it to your lordship. ”
Chancellor of the Exchequer Faun was sweating profusely.
"Hmm. ”
Luo Chen had a smile on his face at this time, he glanced at the three of them and waved his hand.
"Let's all go down. ”
When the three of them retreated, Luo Chen's eyes lit up.
"More than 20 billion, very good. ”
"It seems that the idea of farming Devil Fruits will soon come true. ”
