Codex Pirates

Chapter Twenty-Four

"Who?" William asked.

"The only son of the president of the Glittering Gold Chamber of Commerce," Tony endured the pain and shook the ashes, "Sherlock."

William asked with a smile on his face, "Is he the one who usually helps you deal with smuggled goods?"

Tony felt guilty, glanced at the smiling William, and said shyly: "Usually I do small business with him, but this time if we want to transport wine to the Kingdom of Navia, we need a 'bridge'."

Tony's eyes quickly swept over William and the others: "Even if you guys can fight and settle the man-made dangers at sea, it's useless without channels. Sherlock has never interfered with the business of the Glittering Gold Chamber of Commerce. He His father didn't like his business philosophy very much, so he always wanted to start a new business. Although he can't get involved in the business of the chamber of commerce, he can still get a lot of convenience in many places with his status-his father can't sever ties with him, So it’s no problem to open up and build sales channels.”

William nodded as he listened. In fact, he had already guessed that there was a partner behind Tony who helped sell the stolen goods, and he was waiting for Tony to recruit him.

William doesn't have any connections or network in the local area. Although Tony has these things in the local area, it can't affect the outside world, let alone another country. Although the Kingdom of Navia is not far from them, it is an independent country after all.

William wants Latoni to join the team, and what he wants is to make wine locally in the future, so that Tony, who is a local snake, can get through the production link. The crucial sales link is not something that either of them can easily handle.

The key to completing the thrilling jump from commodity to currency in Marx's mouth still falls to another person.

William was actually trying to test Tony just now. If Tony, under his inducement, recruited the only hidden important relationship, it means that his coercion and temptation succeeded.

On the contrary, Tony didn't say anything from the beginning to the end, thinking about fooling the past, then most likely he was thinking about going back to this person named Sherlock to help him take revenge.

William always likes to hold back when doing things. If Tony really imagines that he is so easy to deceive and chooses not to name Sherlock, he can only follow Aramis's advice.

...

William asked Edmund to send Tony and others back to Hongye Village. Edmund was also a native of Hongye Village, so Tony and the others dared not wait for an opportunity to retaliate.

After they left, William said to Akin: "The day after tomorrow, you take Wallon out to sea to get Denton's treasures, maybe you can't bring them all out, so try to get things that are easy to sell first, cash is the best. "

Wallon responded with an "um", and Ajin nodded calmly.

When Aramis heard that he was going to go to sea, his eyes lit up. He was almost suffocated after staying in Frost Moon Village for a year: "I want to go too!"

"You stay!" William glared at him.

A Jin is mature, stable and loyal, and Wallon is also honest and responsible. Although William does not doubt that Aramis will take money and run away, Aramis's personality is eccentric, especially his mouth is too broken, which is easy to cause trouble. There are all kinds of weird people and strange things. If you don’t cause trouble, you have to worry about things coming to you. In order to be safe and avoid accidents, of course William will not send him.

On the way to the residence, Ah Jin asked in a deep voice, "How much is appropriate?"

"As long as it is convenient for you to carry, the more the better." William rubbed his temples impetuously. He was a heavy smoker in his previous life. In this life, he is physically not addicted to cigarettes, but he is mentally dependent. After seeing Tony smoking, he felt itchy. Panic, but now he is still practicing, smoking is harmful to health, he knows better than anyone else that he has been smoking for a long time, so he can only endure it.

"Is that much money worth it?" Aramis asked.

"In the future, I will build the winemaking workshop in Hongye Village, and I will seize the production, and I can't rely on others," William said slowly: "And the son of the chamber of commerce president named Sherlock is not a local gangster like Tony. It is not within our sphere of influence and cannot be coerced, and real money must be invested in any cooperation."

"It's too troublesome." Wallon rarely complained.

"Trouble has to be done. You can't build a tall building without a foundation. If you don't do a series of trivial things such as washing and cutting vegetables, just throw the vegetables into the pot. Can the fried vegetables be delicious? Don't you think that doing so can directly change Serve a good dish?" William said, squinting at Aramis.

Aramis scratched his cheeks, and said a little helplessly, "Didn't I not wash and cut the vegetables when I was cooking, as for taking so long?"

"You idiot just threw a whole vegetable into the pot, and almost smashed the pot!" William said angrily, and slapped Aramis on the back of the head.

Aramis shrank his neck and smiled. In fact, he did it on purpose. Since then, the few people have never dared to let him cook.

William returned to the previous topic: "The trade network we built by smuggling alcohol can just provide assistance after we set up a pirate group at sea. The looted goods can be sold through this network, and the missing materials can also be sold. Supplies, and when our pirate group grows, it will be able to escort maritime trade, which happens to help each other."

In addition, what William didn't say is that the trade network is his tentacles on the shore. Although the sea is far wider than the land, the latter is no less important to naval pirates than the former, because sea ships will eventually dock for supplies. Do not open all kinds of materials on land.

For pirates, an organization that is weak in the face of world governments and naval forces, they must have the awareness and preparation to act as "guerrillas" at any time, and the guerrillas don't want to get worse and worse, and eventually be wiped out gradually, and there is still a little bit of growth The idea must have a broad mass base.

Only when there are people, can there be a source of troops, intelligence, and supplies, so that we can continue to fight.

The Ottoman pirates would even throw the pirate flag packages on the pier to give to the civilians under their protection. William would not even have this knowledge.

Saying these things is somewhat negative and hurts morale, so William didn't say it to Ah Jin and others.

...

After sending both Manny and Angie to the doctor, Tony sent away the subordinates who kept asking about the cause and effect of the injuries.

He came to his desk, took out a small delicate box from the drawer, and opened it to reveal a phone bug that was constantly gnawing on vegetable leaves.

Tony cruelly snatched the vegetable leaf from the phone bug's mouth, hesitated for a moment, and dialed the number.

The phone worm rang for a while, and the other side was finally connected, and a young male voice came from the small phone worm in front of Tony: "Hello?"

"Is it Sherlock?"

"It's Tony, what's the matter?"

"I have a friend..." At this point, Tony's cheeks twitched, "He has a big business and wants to talk to you."
