Chapter 603: No-Cost Business
In the next period of time, Shanks taught Hua Mei meow how to use the overlord color, and helped try to activate Kaido cat's overlord color. It can be said that he did his best...
If he didn't have to try to pry Cuixiang away from Xie Wen every day, Xie Wen would probably be more grateful to him.
As for the other members of the red-haired pirates, they will not be bored.
In addition to cute cats playing with them, Xie Wen also had an unlimited supply of Ibuki wine, so not only did they not feel bored, they even felt a little happy.
However, such good days did not last long. Vice-captain Ben Beckman, who had been dissatisfied with some crew members before, saw that the Ellu cats would take part of their time to exercise every day no matter how much they played. After that, special training for the members of the red-haired pirate group began immediately.
So during this period of time, this unknown island became more lively than ever because of the people from both sides.
But even so, after Huameimiao basically mastered what he taught, Shanks was ready to leave with his pirate group as soon as possible.
After all, he, the four emperors, had other things to do, and it was impossible to stay in a place like this and waste time.
In addition, during this time, Shanks secretly bought a lot of Ibuki wine from Xie Wen, enough for him to drink for a long time, so he could say goodbye so gracefully.
But before he left, he quietly pulled Xie Wen aside...
"What, if I finish drinking the wine later..."
Shanks, who had tried several times to trick Suixiang into joining the gang, but failed all the time, knew that he wanted to drink Ibuki sake in the future, so he had to find a way from Xie Wen.
"Emmmm..."
Xie Wen rubbed his chin and did not refuse immediately.
In fact, he was a little unhappy with the fact that Shanks always wanted to kidnap his cat. Although the bond between Blue Star and Elu was unbreakable, his little baby was always being remembered, and he felt a little uncomfortable in his heart.
So from Xie Wen's own perspective, he doesn't really want to supply Shanks Ibuki's sake remotely...
Even the Whitebeard Pirates don't get this kind of treatment!
But who knows that there is a business wizard in the El Cat Investigation Team?
You must know that before Xie Wen and the others obtained the gold from the Sky Island and achieved economic freedom, Hua Mei Miao's businessmen were also one of the main sources of income for the El Cat Investigation Team. Even as their capital continued to increase, they entered the great world. After the voyage, there is a faint tendency to surpass catching pirates in exchange for bounties as the largest source of income.
Even after returning from the empty island and no longer needing to purchase goods on a large scale, Hua Mei Miao will still buy a small amount of goods by herself to make some extra money.
In addition, she will also conduct some intelligence transactions, but since the investigation team is not short of money, Master Xiang Feihu's transactions in this area are mainly intelligence exchanges, and there is no actual income.
Therefore, after realizing that the red-haired pirates had an urgent need for Ibuki wine, Huamei Miao gave Xie Wen a good idea...
"There is no problem in supplying Ibuki wine to you, but you have to pay for it." Xie Wen put forward his conditions with a smile, "We are not short of money. You should also know that I am very interested in famous swords, devil fruits and the like. I’m interested in something...well, if there is any technical information, that would be fine.”
And while he was talking, he also took aim at the "Griffin" on Shanks' waist, which was most likely the ultimate sharp sword.
"..."
Shanks put his beloved sword behind him with a black look on his face, blocking Xie Wen's evil sight, "I can't give this to you! And it's just some wine, and it's wine made with abilities. , where is it worth so much?”
"If you think it's not a good deal, then don't buy it. I'm not forcing you to buy or sell."
Xie Wen, who withdrew his gaze, curled his lips, spread his hands, and said very bachelorly.
Anyway, this is a supply-side market. Isn’t it normal for him to open his mouth like a lion?
Of course, Xie Wen is not that black-hearted, or in other words, Hua Mei Miao, a business wizard, is still very principled...
"Also, I didn't say that a famous sword or a fruit can only be exchanged for one barrel. The average price of Ibuki wine is 100,000 beli per barrel, but we don't accept cash. We can only use famous swords or devil fruits of equivalent value. Change."
Shanks's face looked better now. Although a barrel of 100,000 Baileys wine still looks a bit expensive, considering the quality of Ibuki wine, it is actually cheap. There are some wines that are not as good as Ibuki wine. , the average price is even higher.
Of course, if you want to consider its own cost, then the price is simply black to the core, even darker than the 79 eyebrow pencil.
Monopoly is indeed the only magic weapon in the business field.
"Then it's settled."
Even though he knew he was being slaughtered, Shanks did not continue to argue. After all, famous swords and devil fruits are more troublesome for others, but for him, the four emperors, they are not difficult to deal with. Got it.
and……
The Ibuki sake in their hands can last for a while, so they are not in a hurry.
…
"Okay, it's time for us to leave."
As the Red Firth left, Xie Wen and the others also boarded the Dudu Forward that was docked on the shore.
[Brother Xie Wen~ Where shall we go next? 】
(=ΦωΦ=)
Duduhao, who had been hiding in his own body for many days, quickly climbed onto his "throne" and asked Xie Wen while pulling his hair.
"Hmm..."
Xie Wen held his chin and fell into deep thought.
At the moment, he has three targets to choose from...
Tezoro's Golden Ship, Wang Zhi's Beehive Island and Kaido's Wano Country.
Xie Wen will deal with Kaido sooner or later. Whether it is out of revenge for being chased away before, or the historical text of Wano Country and the two big swords, or to complete Kaido's obsession, Wano Country is a place Xie Wen must go to.
The same is true for Wang Zhi's Beehive Island. Xie Wen has not forgotten the matter of the teleportation fruit ability user before. He just chose Doflamingo, who is closer, to take revenge first, and then caught up with the World Conference, so it has been delayed until now.
As for Tezoro's golden ship...
Xie Wen actually took it for granted. After all, he was not short of money now. It was just that he had always mistaken Shiqi's airship for a golden ship. In addition, there would probably be devil fruits auctioned there, so Xie Wen felt that he still needed to go there.
Otherwise, he always felt that something was wrong.
It was like when I played games on Earth before, I got all the other achievements, but there was only one achievement that was not difficult but a little troublesome that I hadn't completed.
It was actually not difficult to make a choice...
Just look at which place is closest to them.
