A certain scientific pirate
Chapter 173 A rich woman
Mo Fei finally became a rich man. Although strictly speaking, the money he got was unearned and illegal, but money is money - Cepeish gave away the treasure, and Mo Fei got it. Sixty-four million.
The small goals were indeed just small goals, and Mo Fei completed them six times in an instant.
But the painful thing happened. After getting such a large sum of money, Mo Fei had no place to spend it.
If this money is purely used for personal food, drink, fun and enjoyment, then it is a huge amount of money. But if this money is used for the shipbuilding plan that Mo Fei wrote in the letter to the Navy Headquarters, then this amount of money is too insignificant... not even half a ship can be built.
In fact, although Mo Fei proposed a shipbuilding plan to the Navy Headquarters, he never expected that the top management would agree to this suggestion, because the current sailing battleships are completely sufficient for the Navy, and eliminating pirates is just a matter of course. As a theoretical goal, the Navy has been doing nothing more than curbing pirates. The Navy's fleet size can fully maintain the status quo.
As long as Akainu's brain is not diseased, it is impossible for him to approve such a plan. In addition to the consideration of combat effectiveness, the more important thing is the economic problem... no money.
Who doesn't like more advanced and more deterrent warships, but the problem is that the construction of all new ships and the application of new technologies require a large amount of investment.
There is no arms race in the world of pirates, and it is of no use for the navy to make its fleet so powerful... Unless someone really launches the "ancient weapon" Pluto, there is no need for the navy to update its equipment on a large scale.
Even if Akainu agrees to Mo Fei's suggestion, the World Government and the Celestial Dragons above him will slap Mr. Marshal's position back one by one... Is it easy to save some heavenly gold? The Celestial Dragons are all about eating, drinking, whoring and gambling. Not enough? Want a new boat? Want to eat shit.
So if Mo Fei wants to build a ship, he can. It is completely feasible if he has the money.
The key is still the issue of money. If you have money, everything is possible. Mo Fei has to find a way to continue to increase her income... She can't really go fishing one by one, can she? Although the Neptune species are endless, what if a "fish lover" pops up if too many are caught? Consider the environment, public opinion and sales issues.
Or directly attack the Tianlong people's gold ship? Well, although this is a very creative idea, it is not feasible at all... Damn, pirates don't even dare to do this kind of thing, but you, a navy, want to give it a try?
Since the big borers can’t be offended, what about the small borers? Then Mo Fei changed to a more feasible idea, such as squeezing some money from the nobles of the Wilvalin Kingdom. Anyway, it would not be a shame to do such a thing, it would be like doing justice for heaven... Well, it can't be In this way, it should be said that Mo Fei is an ambitious young man who is committed to solving the problem of redistribution of social wealth. He is concerned about the gap between rich and poor and strives for a fairer way for society to operate.
Well, although she couldn't just do it, Mo Fei decided to get some general information first.
While Tepes came to his office to submit new documents to be processed, Mo Fei said, "Hey, Mr. Major, is the base collecting any relevant intelligence about this country?"
"Information about pirates active in the surrounding waters? Of course we have that kind of information..."
"No, I'm talking about the information about the nobles in the kingdom."
"Information on family relationships?"
"Information on wealth status."
Mo Fei felt that the major was just thinking about something that was not very respectful to him as a commander, but it was obvious that the major was thinking too much... It was not the people of the noble family who were targeted, but the money of the noble family.
Well, whatever it is that's being targeted, things seem to be pretty much the same.
"There should be some general information. Let me think about it...that part of the information should be placed in Archives No. 4. Brigadier General, do you want me to organize those materials and bring them over?"
Tepesh was a little confused about what Mo Fei wanted to do, but he directly focused on the assets of the nobles. It looked like he was planning some bad idea... Could it be that after collecting 600 million beli, Mr. Brigadier took the money? Addicted to collecting money? Want to round up a billion?
Obviously, Tepesh's idea is still not grand enough. Even if Mo Fei wants to round up an integer, what he wants to round up is not an integer of one billion, but an integer of 10 billion.
"No need, I'll just go and take a look myself." Mo Fei said.
Since it can be read at will and brought in and out, it means that these materials are not important information. Just like Tepesh said, they are "general information", which has only reference significance but cannot be used as actual measurement. Data stuff.
Mo Fei then left the office and followed the major's instructions to go to Archives Room 4. After checking the index for a while, she pulled out the information about the kingdom's financial revenue and the assets of the nobles.
"Oh, the country and the aristocracy actually have so much money..."
After roughly browsing through one of the documents, Mo Fei couldn't help but sigh like this.
This kind of data does not mean how wealthy this country is, it just shows that the huge wealth is concentrated in the hands of a very small number of people. Since the nobles have so much money, correspondingly, the hands of the middle and lower class civilians are basically There won't be any money left.
The national system in the pirate world is mostly monarchy. It is conceivable that most countries have this kind of wealth structure...otherwise there wouldn't be so many people going to sea to become pirates.
After reading the general situation, Mo Fei opened another more specific information, and as he flipped through it, his fingers suddenly stopped...
"Count Cimaril Vista, twenty-seven years old, widowed, has a son.
It mainly operates manor-style industries that rely on land, mainly involving tobacco, spirits, and timber industries. In addition, it also operates the mining and processing of coal and other minerals...
Because she has a lot of wealth, Ms. Simariel is the most popular marriage partner among men in the kingdom. Unfortunately, the earl is very satisfied with her current living situation and has no intention of changing it..."
When reading this, Mo Fei actually felt the regret of the person who wrote this information... If the information in the information is true, then not to mention that Count Simaril is only twenty-seven, even if She is now sixty-seven, and there will be a large number of people vying to marry her.
Tobacco, spirits, and wood may seem commonplace, but without exception, these three items are the hard currency of the Age of Navigation, the super hard currency—the Countess is a truly rich woman, extremely rich.
It's just...it doesn't seem right to cheat the widow out of her money, right? It kind of challenges the bottom line of being a human being.
Mo Fei changed the next information.
He spent most of the day in this archive room and found that some nobles had extensive assets and were rich to an exaggerated degree, while some nobles were only well-off. As he watched, Mo Fei suddenly took a picture of the materials in his hand. After a while, he discovered a problem - he, Erindel Mofei, could not cheat money, but only steal money.
He can only do rough work, the kind with no technical content at all... It seems that his work is in vain.
Someone was so sad that he decided to go to bed after get off work.
When Mo Fei returned to the office, he found that just as he left, a letter was delivered to his office.
He turned over the envelope and directly saw the signature of the sender. To his surprise, the letter was neither from Dr. Albertine nor from the Navy Headquarters.
The letter was sent by someone Mo Fei had never expected.
"Why does this guy write to me and not call me? Is there some shady thing going on?"
Mo Fei has roughly understood the routines in this world. Things that can be explained on the phone are very simple things, while things written on letter paper are either very formal things or shameful things.
Fortunately, what was written in this letter was not a bad thing. It should be said... it was like "someone gives you a pillow as soon as you fall asleep".
