Chapter 5: Drum Kingdom (over 500 funds this week
"It's still far from it. I just joined now. Although I successfully worked at the dock, I don't even have any say. How can I cover you on the dock? The goods can't be sold at all. Now I'd better do some small business in the city. How are the honeycomb coal I told you before?"
Barr shook his head when he heard Williams' words.
However, so far, his preliminary plan for coming here has been reached. He successfully joined the Ram Gang and successfully entered the dock he wanted to go to the most. Next, he just needs to continue to follow the original plan.
But this is not enough. Whether it is Barr, Shuma and Williams, they all yearn for becoming stronger as soon as possible and for completing revenge as soon as possible.
If any small group wants to develop and become stronger, money will never be missing.
But Bar and the other two were just here, and they had not yet fully established their position in this port city. They had no power or power, so it was impossible to get a lot of money here at once.
The past two weeks since Bar and his wife arrived at the Port of Vilia, they have accumulated very little wealth, most of which were obtained by Bar and Ram's adventure to smuggle.
Shuma wanted to return to his old career and borrowed some money from the rich people in the city to spend money, but he was shot dead by Barr as soon as he proposed this idea.
The reason is no different, the risk of stealing is too great.
The strong ones have their own strength. Although Xiuma's stealing skills are good, there are definitely many people who are better than him in the city. Once he appears against the rich or the people in the city, his new face will definitely be found by the Goldfinger team in the city soon.
At that time, not only will they face threats from peers, but they will also be disliked by the people in the city, and the stolen rich people will also take revenge.
In short, although stealing money is quick, it is very unfavorable to Barr's long-term plan to implement here.
Barr currently has only one thing to arrange for Shuma, that is, collecting intelligence.
Xiuma made small origami beasts with paper fruits that could serve as his eyes and ears, and could easily steal a lot of useful information.
The Kingdom of Magnetic Drum has not been ruled by Valbo, nor has it been destroyed by the Blackbeard Pirates, so it is still a very prosperous country now.
Especially after One Piece's death, the era of the Great Pirates came, and the world was in chaos, with a large number of injuries every day, and the demand for medicines was huge.
As a world-renowned medical power, the Kingdom of Magnetic Drum has naturally gained great benefits. By exporting a large number of high-quality medicines, it has earned huge wealth, and the country ushered in an unprecedented sign of prosperity.
Vilia Port is the largest port city in the Kingdom of Magnetic Drums. There are many merchant ships coming here every day, and the cargo throughput can reach more than 100,000 tons per day.
Therefore, the population entering and exiting the docks of this port of Villa is very large every day, and there are all kinds of people. It is perfect to describe it as a mixture of fish and dragons. Among them, there are quite a few pirates who disguise pirate ships as ordinary merchant ships to mix in for supply and repair.
The purpose of Barrghuma to go to the dock to collect intelligence is very simple, that is, to prepare to hunt these pirates who are mixed into the port, or to sell these pirates' intelligence to bounty hunters, or even find out some commercial secrets.
Using intelligence to make money, in Barr's opinion, this is the most suitable way to make money in Shuma now.
Unfortunately, this way of making money by selling intelligence is more about luck and credit accumulation. The newcomer Shuma naturally hasn't made any money with it. Instead, some of the business secrets that eavesdropped on have made Williams, who has a business acumen, make some money with it.
......
"That's a pity. I've found a pharmacist. Although it's only an internship level, I can indeed make some simple therapeutic drugs. If you help me on the dock, I can immediately use the money we have accumulated to build a small workshop to survive and heal therapies. At that time, I will definitely make a big profit. Those pirates who have money but have no life will definitely be willing to buy it.
As for the honeycomb coal you mentioned, it has been successfully produced, but it is not possible to achieve smokeless combustion for the time being. It may be that the raw materials have not been completely correct, but don’t worry, it is not difficult to make this thing, and this problem should be solved soon."
Williams said with a little regret when he heard Barr's answer.
In the past two weeks, he and Barr have been making money, and the accumulated funds have reached 200,000 Bailey, which has been a little original accumulation.
Yesterday he finally managed to fool a chew-poor pharmacist successfully, and waited for Barr to successfully join the Ram Gang, had an umbrella, and then made a fortune by selling healing medicines.
In the Port of Villa, medicines are gold, so there is no need to worry about not being able to sell them.
Unfortunately, I still can't do it for the time being.
As Barr said, if Barr had no say in the dock area controlled by the Ram Gang, his medicine would definitely not be able to be sold.
Because the pharmaceutical business of the Magnetic Drum Kingdom has long been monopolized by major consortiums, a small businessman like him wants to start a pharmaceutical business and has no backing. He probably has his money and goods been stolen before he even leaves the dock, and he may even lose his life.
"Don't worry, the pharmaceutical business in the magnetic drum kingdom is too deep, and it is not something we can covet for the time being. Let's continue to do small business and develop honeycomb coal, especially honeycomb coal. Winter is coming, and this thing is a new product. No one can compete for the time being, so we will definitely make a profit."
Barr showed regret when he saw Williams, patted his shoulder with his hand and encouraged him.
Then he turned his head and said to Shuma: "How has your manpower training been doing recently?"
Since Shuma started the intelligence collection work, he found that it was too troublesome to collect by himself alone, so he asked Barr to increase his manpower and help him collect intelligence.
Barr attaches great importance to intelligence collection.
Because they can give them great help, they may be looking for help in the hoarse fruits, and may even save their lives.
So Barr agreed to Shuma's request without much thought and gave him enough funds. In the past two weeks, half of the money Barr and Williams earned was spent on it.
Shuma did not disappoint Barr. So far, he has formed an intelligence group of about ten people. The members are all lonely orphans in the slums. Each of them has been carefully selected by Shuma, and they are all under ten years old.
"It's okay, two of them are barely available." Xiuma replied truthfully.
"That's good. Remember not to forget ideological education. This is very important. They are all seedlings you have worked hard to cultivate, and they cannot grow crooked."
Bar nodded and reminded again.
Upon hearing this, Xiuma said with a serious expression: "Of course, if it grows crooked, I will cut it off with my own hands."
After receiving Shuma's assurance, Barr stopped saying anything and poured a cup of hot milk for the two of them himself, then walked out of the door, came to the cold little courtyard, and began daily exercise.
Soon, Barr was performing this strange set of movements in the courtyard. He seemed to be practicing a special yoga, his hands, feet and body were like boneless, constantly performing various severely distorted movements that ordinary people could not do, and then he kept moving on the ground with a specific breathing rhythm.
