183 16 billion transactions
The two men stopped at the welcome gate, the navy and Zeguo guards lined up on either side, and then Wilder and Yellow Ape walked in front, talking happily, and Claire and Yellow Ape's lieutenants followed behind them.
After passing through the welcome door, a short walk through the red carpet was to the main hall of the palace.
Not to mention the splendor, at least neat and white.
The main hall, all made of huge white stones, looks imposing and has an atmospheric and elegant taste.
"Is this the royal palace of Wilder? It's amazing. The yellow ape looked up at the round giant dome, and the surprise on his face didn't know if it was really in his heart or pretended.
"Mr. Yellow Ape is modest, the building of the Navy Headquarters is amazing."
The two of them said some unnutritious words, and then walked into the main hall, which can really be called resplendent and expensive.
The long table was covered with red silk cloth, a potted plant was placed on the table, and the whole hall was filled with the fragrance of flowers, and everywhere there was an elegant and noble taste.
"So, what is Mr. Yellow Ape going to talk about?" The two sat down on the high chairs at each end, and as soon as they sat down, Wild restrained the hypocritical smile just now, looked at the yellow ape, and went straight to the point.
The yellow ape unhurriedly raised Erlang's legs, crossed his hands and pressed them against the table, the lenses in front of his eyes glowing.
"Wilder-jun is the one, if you want to talk about business, shouldn't Wilder-jun quote first?"
"Yes."
Wilde nodded in agreement: "Then it's fifteen million Bailey for one cannon, and one million Bailey for ten shells, which is a very cheap price, you must know that it is Mr. Yellow Ape that you have such preferential treatment." ”
Wild said this, the price quoted is naturally not too low, although on the surface, it is indeed not expensive, but its cost is about the same as the cost of artillery on the market.
Hearing Wild's words, the yellow ape reacted calmly, neither frowning nor thinking, nor brightening his eyes.
In general, it's just a look of interest, as if he just woke up.
Wilde didn't care, quietly picked up the glass and took a sip, waiting for the yellow ape to speak.
"One cannon is ten million Baileys, and ten cannonballs are five hundred thousand Baileys." At this time, the yellow ape picked up the teacup and took a sip, and opened his mouth to quote the price.
The price of an artillery piece was directly reduced by one-third, and the shells were also reduced by one-half, which is not such a bargain in the arms business.
Wilde paused for a moment, then raised his head to look at the yellow ape, the meaning of the smile was unknown, and anyone with it could see the sneer: "Did Mr. Yellow Ape go out to buy clothes by himself?" Your bargaining pattern is similar to buying clothes. ”
"At this price, of course it's not possible."
Of course, the yellow ape also knew that it was impossible, to be honest, he had just really taken out the bargaining method of buying clothes, but he didn't expect Wilde to really say it casually.
"What do you think?"
"If it's the navy, then it should be used to fund the navy's cause of maintaining peace at sea, one artillery unit 14 million Baileys, ten shells and 900,000 Baileys."
Although this price is nearly 3 million Baileys more than the price of artillery on the market, it is naturally not expensive because of its power, but the navy was originally able to produce artillery on its own, but now it means that the navy does not produce its own artillery, and it will have to pay an additional 5 million Baileys to purchase them with full foreign funds, so the cost of military spending will be large.
However, this is not the same thing, the two guns are completely incomparable, and the benefits it can bring to the Navy are only great compared to its cost.
The purpose of the yellow ape this time was originally to buy artillery, the price has been estimated, and this price is also within the affordable range, and the most important thing is that he is too lazy to bother to talk about the price, he will buy it if he buys it, and getting off work early is the right way.
Thinking of this, the yellow ape's lenses flashed: "Can't it really be cheaper?" ”
"I can't." Wilde replied with a smile on his face.
And the adjutant behind the yellow ape was completely speechless when he heard the question asked by the yellow ape.
Is this a business talker?!
But he didn't dare to interject at all.
"Then let's talk about the price, this time we need five hundred W01 guns, and one hundred thousand W01 shells. We want to deliver first and pay later. ”
"Of course, Mr. Yellow Ape, but the Navy needs to pay half of the full deposit, after all... The country is also short of money. ”
Wilde said this, but he quickly calculated this number in his heart, one artillery is fourteen million Bailey, and five hundred artillery pieces are 7 billion!
7 billion Bailey!
And the cannonballs are 100,000, 100,000 are 900,000, one is 90,000, and 100,000 is 9 billion!
7 billion plus 9 billion is 16 billion!
16 billion Baileys!
You can get 8 billion Baileys at once with a deposit!
The yellow ape agreed to Wild and Wild's request to be the first to pay the deposit, and in the evening, a batch of gold and paper money was delivered.
A whole eight billion Bailey went into Wild's pocket like this, it is false to say that he is not excited, now is the time to use money, but to say that he is so excited that he can't sleep, eight billion sounds like a lot, in fact, it is only the price of several powerful devil fruits combined, and even some people's bounties can be billions.
Eight billion is only a drop in the bucket for the construction of a country.
It's just that at least it can last a little longer.
Wild specially saw off the yellow ape, and when he stepped on the warship, the yellow ape turned his head and looked deeply in front of him, and even a barren land appeared beyond the horizon, and nodded at Wild: "Then, please also ask Wilder to deliver the arms as soon as possible." ”
"Hehe, Mr. Huang Ape, please rest assured, within a month, all the arms will be delivered, of course, at that time, please ask your army to deliver the remaining amount on time, pay the money with one hand and deliver the goods with the other, believe me, our cooperation will not stop here."
The two shook hands, then turned around, and the warship drove away from the dock.
"The next policy is development, national development, and then let the country create money and use money to develop force! Defend against an armed invasion in the near future! Wilde watched the warship depart, and decided on the main course of action.
Turn around and walk along the coast.
I still have to do it!
After returning to the palace, Wild fell into deep thought, the transaction just now was naturally not as simple as those words, and after the price was determined, there were naturally more requirements, which were written into the agreement.
And the most important one of them is about the Navy's requirements for Wild, which can be said to be very unreasonable, but it is forced to compromise under the situation.
W01 artillery fire is not allowed to be sold to other powers or countries.
This made Wilder, who had a way to make money and was planning to enter the arms world of the new world, a little passive, but thinking of that thing, Wilder had better agree to this one.
There is no way, now we still need to rely on the navy, and some appropriate concessions are still required, and after we develop ourselves......
A dull glint flickered in Wild's eyes.
"The Navy only stipulates that it cannot sell W01 artillery fire to other forces and countries, but it does not mean that it cannot sell other ones." Wilde grinned, his eyes glazed over.
Don't forget, in addition to artillery, he has another weapon for starting a family, and it also attracts the covetousness of the German-66.
"Looks like it's time to meet him." Wilde shook the wine glass in his hand, stared at the red wine in the glass, and whispered, "Hopefully, we will have a good time together." ”
……
The next day, the sun had just risen, and Wild's eyes had already opened in the wide bed.
"Claire, prepare a small boat."
Dressed neatly, Wild came out and said to Claire, who was already waiting.
"Yes."
Before leaving, while Claire was not paying attention, Wild slapped her on the buttocks, which immediately caused her to run away with a red face.
"Heh..."Wilde looked at Claire's fleeing back and smiled, this feeling of occasionally teasing the secretary was quite good, retracting his mind, Wilde stepped into the boat that Claire had prepared.
His ship had been damaged and repaired, and this one was made of stone wood, and Wilde didn't feel any worse when he sat on it.
Alone, he set off in a small boat, and gradually disappeared in the golden waves across the sea.
Halfway through the journey, Wild's heart suddenly moved, and he changed his mind, not to be exact, he just happened to think of a place, and it happened to be on the way, he could go and see, perhaps...... Can you plant a seed in advance and reap unexpected fruits in the future?
If he could, Wild and Wild would love to get that guy.
A talent.
As soon as he thought of it, Wild turned around slightly and headed towards that destination.
After driving on the sea for more than three days, relying on fishing and cultivation along the way to pass the time, all kinds of things in the cabin were complete, except for fresh fish, and after eating canned meat for two days, Wild also wanted to change his taste, took out his fishing rod, threw out the silver line and caught the fish.
At noon a large basket of whitebait was harvested, but Wild did not leave it behind, and ate it all into his stomach.
In this way, the journey was boring, and on the fourth day, an island finally appeared in Wild's sight.
This island is exactly what he is aiming for this time.
An island split in half by ice and fire, the battle of nearly a year ago seems to have left an image on this island, I don't know how earth-shattering.
The island is called Punk Hazard.
Putting away the boat, Wilde boarded the island.
A heat wave rushed towards him, and Wild frowned a little uncomfortably, and his life was returned to the state of adaptation to this environment.
"Worse than scorching hell."
Wilde walked on the burnt dark red ground, observing his surroundings and keeping an eye on his feet.
Beneath his feet was treacherous, with scorching steam scorching from occasional eruptions, and occasionally the ground could be seen cracking somewhere, revealing hot scarlet lava flowing through the cracks.
"Tsk... What a monster, is this power that directly transforms the environment and even the climate of a region really something that people can do? ”
This is not time-sensitive, it will be restored after the statute of limitations, but it will be a permanent change.
"Sakasky is terrifying, that guy is also terrifying, in this hot environment, he can even create a piece of ice and snow, and there is not the slightest erosion of magma in the passage of time." Wilde had now come to a ravine, the ravine was bottomless, and below it was hot magma, and on the opposite side of the ravine, you could clearly see a scene of ice and snow.
One red and one white, the boundaries are clear, as if the heavens and the earth are rigidly divided into two halves, and they are neatly aligned, balanced to the extreme, but opposed to each other.
"Although that guy doesn't seem to be as reliable as Akainu, he won't be weaker than him in real combat. The battle is changing rapidly, and the two of them are in good condition again, and it is impossible to tell who will lose or who will win. ”
Wild Dog is still more inclined to the red dog, but he doesn't think that the pheasant is weaker than the red dog, in fact, the red dog and the green pheasant fight, the green pheasant will suffer, not to say the attribute problem, the green pheasant will consume more physical strength than the red dog in this battle.
The scorching heat would melt his ice, so he had to put in more physical strength to support it if he wanted it not to melt.
In this way, the two still fought for ten days and ten nights, and there was no doubt about the monster.
"How I want to see that fight."
Wilde jumped over the ravine with moon steps and continued to walk forward.
Life returns to adjust in time, stepping on a new environment, with a rustling sound under your feet, and the surface of your feet will sink a little with each step.
"It's so cold that the sky is snowing." Wilde looked up at the snowflakes falling from the sky, reached out and caught one, and the snowflakes instantly melted in his hands.
"It's time to go and see it, and I don't know where." Wilde withdrew his hand and walked on, his eyes searching for something in the cold whiteness.
The same white has become the main color of this world, and it is easy to make people dazzled, and after looking at it for a long time, it feels a little stinging in the eyes.
Wilde simply closed his eyes, and saw and heard the domineering spirit radiating out without reservation, and the surrounding scene was suddenly clearly reflected in his mind, including the underground.
"I can use it for an hour without reservation, and any more will be overloaded, and my head will not be able to stand it first, and I will have to leave some time to prepare, so I have to find that place as soon as possible."
Wilde used the shave to speed up the process, and his body disappeared in the snow in an instant.
About ten minutes later, Wild's eyebrows furrowed, the corners of his mouth hooked, and seeing that the domineering appearance had been revoked, his eyes opened and he looked not far away.
Hidden in the snow is a small hill-like building that you would think is just covered in snow if you don't look closely.
"It's really hidden to build a building in a place like this." Wilde took a deep look, and then his body began to turn into a swamp and burrow into the ground.
His purpose this time was to contact Caesar, so he tried to avoid being discovered as much as possible.
