Chapter 252: Selling Gold
"Tell me, do you have something to ask the old man for help."
Karp said as he clasped his nostrils, wondering what his grandson was asking him for help with.
"That's Grandpa, I just dug up a batch of gold. Now if you want to make a move, I want to ask if the Navy will accept gold? ”
Karp thought for a moment when he heard this, and said, "Gold? The old man has to ask to know, after all, you also know that the old man is not responsible for procurement. ”
Louis smiled and said, "Then grandpa, hurry up and ask, I'll wait for your reply." ”
If it weren't for the fact that he had too much gold to sell this time, he wouldn't have asked his grandfather for help.
"Okay, the old man will go and ask the Warring States."
"When the old man finishes asking, I'll call you again."
"Okay, grandpa."
Louis replied with a smile, and then waited for his grandfather to find him a buyer.
In the office of Marshal Marin Van Duo of the Navy Headquarters, Sengoku looked at the phone bug with a slight hesitation on his face, but finally connected:
"Why are you calling the old man? Haven't you just been out for a short time? ”
Karp laughed when he heard this: "Hahaha, you remember it really clearly." But this time, the old man brought you a lot of business. ”
"Huh? What big business can you bring to the table? ”
Sengoku was curious, it was the first time he had heard that Karp would do business.
Karp smiled when he heard this: "That's the case, Louis has a batch of gold and wants to ask if you want it?" Warring states. ”
Hearing this, the Warring States forcibly resisted the urge not to scold and said:
"We are the Navy, Karp. You'd better figure out where you stand, we're not gold dealers. ”
Karp pouted his head when he heard this, and after avoiding the saliva of the phone bug, he said, "Okay, then the old man told Louis that you don't need to let him find another seller." ”
Sengoku suddenly stopped when he heard Karp's words: "Wait, you ask him how much gold he has?" ”
Karp, who was just about to hang up the phone, was stunned and said, "Didn't you say that we are not gold buyers?" Warring states. ”
Hearing this, Warring States held back his anger and said, "The old man doesn't want to do this kind of thing, but don't you need to eat?" Don't you need to eat the entire Navy Headquarters? Don't forget your precious grandson Luffy, what did he do in the navy and almost demolished the navy headquarters. ”
Ever since Karp brought Luffy here, as long as it's a little group activity, Luffy will definitely have to do something.
If he hadn't been careful enough to get military spending through other means, would Karp really think that their navy had Bailey? Although the world government allocates funds every year, this is still far from enough compared to the expenditure of the Navy Headquarters.
"Luffy is still a child, and he can't contain his child's heart. You can't blame him. Didn't the old man already take him away from the Navy Headquarters? ”
"Nothing, you'd better not bring him back again. Let's take him to see the vast sea. By the way, you should first ask Louis how much gold there is, and then tell the old man. ”
"Okay, Sengoku."
Karp nodded and replied when he heard this, hung up the phone bug of the Warring States and dialed Louis's phone bug.
Louis, who was guarding next to the phone bug, heard the phone bug ringing and immediately answered the channel: "How is it?" Does Grandpa need gold for the Navy Headquarters? ”
Karp smiled when he heard this: "Of course the Navy Headquarters needs gold, after all, it is the old man who came out." The Warring States asked the old man to ask how much gold you have? ”
Louis scratched his head when he heard this, and said modestly: "There are not many huge golden balls that are a little bigger than my ship. ”
"So big? Then you wait a minute. ”
Karp said when he heard this, hung up the call with Louis and re-called Sengoku.
"How? Did you make it clear? How much gold is there, exactly? As he spoke, he fed the goats on the side.
Karp snapped his nostrils and said, "Louis said it's just a huge golden ball a little bigger than his ship." ”
"Oh, and how big is his ship?" Sengoku nodded and asked.
"It's one size smaller than the old man's boat."
"Huh? What the? That's a lot of gold? It seems that there is a lot of gold. Where is he now? The old man arranged for someone to trade with him. Sengoku was surprised when he heard this, and planned to arrange someone to trade with Louis right now. Ship the gold back to the headquarters as soon as possible.
If he takes the gold and changes hands again, he should be able to make a lot of Bailey.
Karp thought for a moment and said, "They're now? The old man doesn't know, so I'll tell you if I ask again. ”
"You don't have to continue to talk to Luis, you tell the old man his phone number from the number, and the old man will communicate with him personally." Sengoku couldn't help but be speechless when he heard this, relying on Karp to communicate as a transit station, he suspected that this transaction would take a long time.
Karp thought for a moment when he heard this and said, "Okay, the old man will tell you his phone bug number, and you can talk to him personally." ”
"Well, then give the phone bug number to the old man."
"Wait a minute, the old man will look for it first."
"Then you'd better hurry."
"Don't rush, isn't the old man looking for it?"
Karp listened to Sengoku's urging, said slowly, and then reported Louis's phone bug number without hurry.
After Sengoku finished remembering Louis's phone bug number, he said: "Okay, then you don't have to call the old man, the old man is fed up with your procrastination." ”
When the words fell, Sengoku hung up the call with Karp and dialed Louis's phone bug.
Louis stayed on the deck and didn't wait for his grandfather's call, but after waiting for the call from Sengoku, he smiled and said, "It's Grandpa Sengoku, do you want to see my cute golden ball?" Guaranteed not to disappoint. ”
"Well, Luis, your gold. The old man wants them all, you can make a price. As long as it's not too excessive, the old man can agree. Sengoku said with a smile, already calculating how to make enough money from this transaction.
Louis smiled when he heard this, and said, "I don't have high requirements, 20 Devil Fruits or 6 billion Baileys will do." Sengoku grandpa. ”
"I'm afraid you're asking for too much, Louis." Sengoku almost fell off the chair when he heard this, these prices are not high, so what is high??
Louis smiled and explained: "I'm not a lion who opens his mouth, Grandpa Sengoku, I think as long as you see it, the golden ball in my hand will know that my requirements are not high at all." ”
"But your price is too high, I think in this case, we will not be able to trade." Hearing this, Sengoku said, the meaning was very clear, that is, to ask Louis to reduce the price.
