Chapter 292 Do You Think I Am Doing Good Deeds?

"Hahaha"

On the deck in the heavy rain, eighteen businessmen were lying or kneeling, breathing heavily.

On the deck, Renedia, who was soaked in the rain, made a scissor hand gesture to them and showed her little tiger fangs, "Hahahaha, thank you, mother, for saving your lives!"

"Save a ghost!"

The heads of the eighteen people enlarged in anger, and they roared sharply: "I almost died!"

The thunder did not hit, and hit the sea directly next to Link, but it came quickly because an air cannon exploded on the remaining hull of the ship they were hugging.

If they hadn't burst out with powerful vitality when they were about to be engulfed by the waves, they would have swam to the bottom of the Death Omen star against the huge waves, and quickly climbed up through the rope net.

A little later and they would really be finished.

"Just tell me whether to save him or not, as long as he's still alive."

Renedia glanced at the fat man among the merchants and said, "Wow, it's really you, fat man. Long time no see."

"long time no"

Link forced a smile, but before he could finish his words, Renedia turned and walked towards the building, "Come in when you can move, Sarge wants to see you."

Link tugged at the corner of his mouth, and a vein popped out on his forehead. He held back his anger and took a deep breath, staggered to his feet, pulled a businessman next to him, and walked towards the banquet hall on the first floor.

As soon as a group of people entered the gate, they heard a very familiar heroic smile.

"Hahahaha! Isn't this my old friend, Link? Oh, and you black marketeer from Rogge Town, long time no see."

Sage sat in front of the throne and didn't do anything. He just chewed his cigar and smiled at them: "Why, why did you come to the new world instead of staying in Carnival City and was kicked out?"

The last time I saw him was in Carnival City, he sold the entire Carnival City to this guy.

He is indeed an old friend.

"Here, warm the soup."

Marika pushed the dining cart and made soup for a group of people with a smile. As Link thanked him, she held up the soup tremblingly and took a few sips. She felt her body warmed up a little, and then she completely relaxed.

"I saw the news that you captured Gareth, so I came here to find you."

Link recovered, looked at Sag with burning eyes, and said slowly: "Gareth, do you want to sell it or not?"

Hearing this, Sage's grin widened, "Who do you represent?"

Lily on the side subconsciously held the hilt of the sword, with a chill in her eyes.

Link was very straightforward, "The six emperors of the underground world all have ideas. From my point of view, the world government may also be involved. I am just a messenger. But from what I know about you, you would have sold it long ago." , I won’t delay until now. I want to buy some property from you, and I’ll give you a price.”

Sage obviously takes this place as his territory. After all, this is the New World, a place beyond the control of the world government. And now, like Blackbeard, he is a pirate who has attracted much attention in the world and has the qualifications of [Yonko].

It should be impossible to sell them all, but Link thinks it can still be done to get some properties in the city of desire in the world.

He is confident about this. Although he lost money in Carnival City, he has gained a firm foothold and is now starting to make money. No matter what price Sager asks, he can make a sum of money, and then with this Where traffic is important, continue to make money.

He can agree to any amount of money. After all, the people coming this time are eighteen black market merchants from Rogge Town!

Although they suffered a shipwreck, the foundation is still there. At least Sager promised that they can mobilize funds through channels.

"Not for sale."

"Okay, that's the price. Huh?"

Link was about to agree, but he immediately felt something was wrong. He looked at Sarge and asked doubtfully, "Not selling?"

"Of course I won't sell it, not how much it is, whether it's high or low."

Sage said with a grin: "I am the master of my territory. I am the only ruler. The land, industry, everything belongs to me."

"But you are just a pirate."

Link was puzzled and said: "With so much territory but it can't play any role, even Big Mom still needs our underground world."

What can a pirate do if he occupies such a large territory?

Do you rob every day?

That's a traffic artery!

Isn't it too wasteful?

"Don't you understand this? We used to be colleagues, but now we can only work part-time. Besides, can't pirates do business? I think Dover is doing a good job. He can do it. I Of course I can do it. I didn’t have any capital before, but now I have too much capital. I can do whatever business I want!”

Sage stretched out his hand and shook it hard at them. "Gems, shipbuilding, weapons, food, lending, robbery, as long as there is profit, I will do anything. I just conquered an island, an island that produces food and fertilizer." , there is ready-made food here. When I finish cultivating Timaton, I can sell the food to others and make a lot of money. Do you think I can do business? "

Link couldn't help but take a step back at Sag's words and swallowed subconsciously.

This business is much wider than his.

He just wants to use the World's Desire City to create a black market.

"Link, old friend, and you"

Sag smiled at them and said: "What's the point of always following others to drink some soup? I have always been tolerant of talents. How much can you eat if you follow Umit and Gilbertson? "

"Why don't you work with me? I only charge 40% of your business tax, plus your personal profit tax. In my territory, you can do any business, even the black market, I can hand it over to you, as long as you pay I am loyal."

There is definitely a black market.

This is a traffic thoroughfare, and some pirates are unwilling to join them, but Sag will not drive them away. The proceeds of these people's plundering will definitely come here, and these are all businesses.

What he lacks now is talents in this area, and Link comes at just the right time.

In addition, he also needs someone to help him sell his large amount of property. He can't discuss business with Doflamingo himself. If someone can help him now, he might be able to expand his business. .

And for Sager's invitation.

Link is very excited!

He is not a fool, he can see the future.

He spent so much effort to occupy a small property in Carnival City, started business there, and did some black market smuggling through Wumit's channels.

But it's different now, it's the whole of Gareth!

Moreover, maybe there will be more territory.

This is a natural disaster, a strong competitor of the Four Emperors!

Taking refuge in him seemed like a very good idea.

"No one is trying to rob us?" Link's eyes flashed.

"No one is trying to rob you on the black market, so I will leave this business to you. In addition to collecting taxes, I will also give you money!"

Sage smiled and said: "You collected it from the black market. If I need it, I will buy it from you and will not take it directly."

These words made the eyes of the eighteen black merchants headed by Link shine!

Give me money!

Without waiting for Link to express his stance first, several of the businessmen immediately knelt down and shouted in unison: "Lord Sarge, we are loyal to you!"

Link turned back to glare at them, and knelt down on one knee, "As long as you can fulfill your promise, I will be loyal to you and help you!"

They had no intention of refusing in the first place, let alone now.

Because He gave too much!

"Hahahaha, hahahahaha, you won't suffer!"

Sage raised his head and laughed, "If they can do the business in the underground world, I can do it too. Sooner or later, I will kill them all. Everything belongs to me!"

"You can definitely do it, you are a natural disaster!"

Link also has full confidence in Sager, "Occupy the territory and enslave them. We can get a steady stream of raw materials. These are sold for money. We can compete with them."

"Slavery?"

Sage was stunned for a moment and said in disgust: "I pay whoever does those things. No matter who it is, as long as they work for me, I will pay them as much as they do. Things that don't cost money are the fucking risks." ”

"What money do you give me?"

Link blinked, a little confused, "Why do you give money to a place you conquered with your own ability?"

The world government hasn’t paid yet!

There are so many people from non-joined countries who have no human rights at all. They are captured and forced to work, and they have never heard of paying them.

What's more, Sag is still a pirate!

Sage rolled his eyes, "What's so good about slaves? If you capture slaves, you think it saves trouble, and people work for you for free. But in fact, it doesn't save trouble at all, because these guys have no value at all!"

"Have you ever had a cow? No, I have. When I wanted to be a farmer, I had a cow. You have to take care of the cow's food and drink, and you have to take care of it when it's sick, for fear that it will have an accident and not help. You did your job."

"They say it's your property, but it's actually very troublesome."

"What is the difference between these slaves and cattle? Do you have to take care of their clothing and food? If there are not enough slaves, do you need to treat them when they are sick? Otherwise, if they die, you will have less labor. You can't kill them all, then? Who do you want to enslave? Do you have to pay for this?"

"Even if you don't have enough food or clothes, it's still money spent, and it won't help you do your best."

"It will be different if you pay him a salary. As much as he earns from doing things, he will do his best. With money, he will buy food when he is hungry, buy clothes when he is short, and he will buy clothes when he is sick. You can go and see it yourself, you don’t have to worry about anything, just pay for it!”

"As for those who sell things, when they make money, they will also consume other things. After this cycle, the economy will improve, and I can collect more taxes, which is much more cost-effective than the slaves who don't need money! "

"You think I give money to do good deeds. This is all business. Do you know how to do business?"

Sage's series of words not only stunned Link, but also made Lily beside him a little confused.

She had heard this theory before.

But I have never heard that not enslaving others actually has such an effect.

But it's just a little weird.

Being oppressed and enslaved should benefit the kings and nobles.

It should be at a disadvantage if it is not oppressed.

It's a good thing to be paid for your work, right?

Pirates are also moral, and Lily also has her own sense of justice. She always felt that what Sag did was indeed a good thing.

But why did this thing, which was a good thing in her eyes, sound more evil than slavery or something like that when it came to Sag's mouth?

Is this a good thing?

After all, the money was given, and it was still quite a lot.
