Chapter 424 I Am the Country!

After a hasty farewell in Champagne, they haven't seen each other since. Sager won't pay special attention to these people, and he can't pay special attention to them.

Some memories can't be remembered just by remembering them.

If Robin didn't come to represent the Revolutionary Army, he couldn't remember where these people went.

"Our captain has agreed on a meeting time, Sager, it's not good to say malicious things about others." Robin smiled.

"I'm not interested."

Sager laughed: "I'm the [Four Emperors], that Straw Hat is not qualified for me to evaluate, I'll talk about it when he reaches my position."

He knocked on the table, and B'Elana, who had been standing by, skillfully presented the gem wine glass and opened a bottle of red wine.

"Musigny, the minimum is 500,000 Baileys per bottle. This bottle of wine has the quality of 1482, and the market price is 3 million Baileys. Try it?"

Red wine is really not the longer it is stored, the better it tastes. This thing will deteriorate over time.

The so-called vintage mainly refers to the year when the quality of the wine is the best and has made a name for itself. Therefore, whenever there is a red wine of the same quality as that year, it will be named a certain year.

Otherwise, where would there be so many wines of the same year for people to drink.

He didn't care whether everyone was willing or not, and asked Bella to pour a glass for everyone, except Renidia.

The latter rolled her eyes at him and drank the juice obediently.

"Three million Baileys."

Kerla looked at the poured red wine and shrank his neck, "One bottle of wine can buy three tons of rice."

"Tsk, bitter!"

Sager sneered: "Rice is not that expensive here, I'll give you 500 Baileys per pound."

Sager couldn't figure out the price of goods, but it could not be linked to the hometown, because the products were different.

In this sea, the least valuable things are fish, fruits, potatoes and the like, while grains, flour and the like are more valuable.

He had farmed before. In the East China Sea, rice was about 1.2 million Beli per ton. As for the Grand Line, it was even more expensive, up to 1.6 million Beli.

Flour is about three times cheaper than rice. In this sea, rice is a luxury.

Even in Sager's current territory, the staple food is mainly bread, fruit and fish.

When Sager first offered a reward of 70 million Beli, it could only be exchanged for dozens of tons of rice.

The price is just like the sea, very magical.

But now it is different. His stomach is inherited from his hometown. He has no feeling for bread and must have rice for every meal. Including the people under his rule, sometimes they will buy rice to change the taste.

Even under the production of the Dwarf Tribe, a batch of rice with an exceptionally good taste was cultivated, known as "tribute rice" and supplied exclusively here.

This is why many businessmen come here. Just dealing in rice, a single commodity, generates a profit of 20% to 60%.

Of course, this part is not available to non-national merchants because the tax is too high. Although not all commodities have it, food is on the list. Non-nationals have to pay 70% of the value tax, which is not enough to generate profits for outsiders.

If you want to enjoy 40% of the income tax, it is very simple. Just join here and invest in production to increase employment.

As for the tricks that arise in it, there must be some. No matter who it is, they can't manage it so finely. It's okay to ensure the stable development of his territory.

This 70% is just a cover, purely to make people feel different.

He is not afraid that some businessmen will do other things. With his size, he doesn't care about that, but once these people are discovered, it will be very boring.

When Kerla heard what Sager said, she couldn't help but ask, "Five hundred Baileys are also expensive. Is there no cheap food?"

"Kalifa, go see if lunch is ready."

Sag gestured to Kalifa, and waited for Kalifa to leave before he smiled and said, "Don't worry, I like to talk while eating."

Not long after, Marika led a group of chefs to push the dining cart in, and then the maids and chefs took the plates together and set the gorgeous table, which made Kerla dizzy.

It's not that she hasn't eaten a big meal before, and Ivankov is also a very good chef, but she has never seen such a variety of ingredients that are precious at first glance.

Are pirates so extravagant?

Aren't they all a group of guys who only care about wine and meat?

The most extravagant Big Mom only worked hard on desserts.

"Try this first. It's the best caviar from the white sturgeon offered by the people below. It's of special quality. One portion per person."

Sage scooped a spoonful with a spoon and said with a smile: "There are three things I like most: robbery, enjoyment, and business. Since you have come to me, I will also give face to my relatives. Tell me what you want first. What do you want?"

"Food, munitions, warships, clothes, and medicines."

Robin said slowly: "We want what the people need and what we need to start a war."

"I have everything!"

Sage laughed: "I have everything here!"

Even if it's medicine, he has a lot of it here. Hogbag is a genius surgeon and has his own unique insights into medicines. Although he is not a scientist, making medicines is an indispensable skill for doctors on the sea.

By turning this technology into an industry and passing it on, plus the products on the island, they still have a lot of medicines here.

"The most important thing is weapons."

Robin said: "We lack a large number of weapons, but as for Bailey, we don't have many. Can we make them cheaper, Sage?"

Weapons are the most expensive and most expensive items.

A bad knife costs fifty thousand beli, and a gun costs even more.

The reason why the Navy is the biggest overlord in the world is because its weapons are really unlimited!

Tiqi is still worried about the bitterness. He has Sager in the weapons channel, but there is nothing to exchange.

Although he is a pirate and can steal anything, the biggest problem is...

"Oh, I don't want money."

Sage smiled and said: "What is Bailey? It's just paper. What I want is the corresponding resources. Give me equal resources, and you can get what you want."

What is economy?

Paper money game?

No, it's a resource game.

Whether it is domestic demand or infrastructure, all prosperity is based on huge resources. With the help of simple paper, we can complete the prosperity of all living beings.

This is also the reason why Tiqi is so bitter.

In Sager's current state, money is no longer useful to him. It is better to say that it is a security product for the world to establish a gold bank in the future.

So he doesn't want Bailey, he does want gold, but there isn't much of it. Basically, in order to buy weapons, all the materials Tiqi grabbed during this period were put in Sager's place.

Being a big pirate makes him as miserable as a part-time worker.

"Lily."

Sage picked up a piece of bone-in meat, took a big bite, and shouted.

Lily nodded, put down the delicate spoon filled with pumpkin soup, thought for a moment, and said: "We need stone, wood, coal mines, iron mines, and population."

Sage's mouth curled up, showing a look of satisfaction.

Large-scale infrastructure requires a lot of resources. The people in Sage's territory now have work to do, and there is no extra labor to deal with the sudden increase in demand. He originally wanted to buy these things through Dover and Lao Sha, but Now that someone has delivered it to your door, there is another channel.

and most importantly, population.

Lily is still easy to use.

You knew immediately what he wanted.

The population promised by the World Government has not been settled yet, and Sage cannot point to that family.

Now there is a redundant choice.

"Don't you revolutionary army want to liberate the country? I think you can't take care of those poor people who can't afford food. Why don't you send them to me, and I'll take care of them."

Sag looked at Robin and Kerla and said, "Even those resources can be moved back a little bit. As long as you give me people, I can give you everything you want!"

Robin still had no reaction, Kerla's eyes lit up, she stood up suddenly, and said excitedly: "If I send people to you, can they live a life like the people under your rule?"

Sage was a little confused by this sudden excitement, but he still nodded and said:

"Of course, anyone who comes to my place will be treated the same as long as they are willing to work."

He is known as the money thrower!

With money and resources in place, everyone can create economic value, and the cycle can become more prosperous.

It’s such a win-win situation, why not pay?

Thinking of this, Sagar laughed for a moment, bared his white teeth, and said in a deep voice: "After all, I am the country!"
