"One hundred and fifty million times..."
"Twice a hundred and fifty million..."
His eyes slowly swept across the group of lieutenant generals, and seeing that none of them made any move to raise their hands, Flying Squirrel made the final decision.
"…Three times! Deal!"
"Hehehehe, thank you Lieutenant General Canglong!"
At this time, Tea Dolphin smiled at Ron with a happy face.
Ron blinked in realization.
It turns out that this giraffe fruit is an auction item for the tea dolphin!
A giraffe fruit, which ranks at the bottom among the weakest animals, can be sold for a sky-high price of 150 million beli. The tea dolphin should thank him.
Soon, an agent in a white suit packed the Devil Fruit and put it into a box in front of everyone, and came to Ron's side.
"Lieutenant General Canglong and Lieutenant General Cha Dou, would you like to pay in person or communicate privately?"
Cha Dou thought for a while: "Let's communicate privately, just leave the things here."
"clear."
The white suit didn't say anything, put down the box and turned to leave.
On the other side, seeing Ron's curious face, Cha Dou explained with a smile: "We are not some shady black market auction, and the government will not allow taboo items to flow into private hands, so every transaction is It’s open and transparent, no need to be secretive, and it’s very normal to pay in person. ”
After answering Ron's most surprising doubt, the tea dolphin continued.
"But I think Lieutenant General Canglong was suddenly pulled in and he probably didn't bring much cash with him, so just give me the money when you get back."
It is impossible for everyone who participates in the auction to be as rich as Ron. After most of the auction items are sold, the holders and purchasers communicate privately to exchange benefits or other things. The government does not pay much attention to the twists and turns in this. Winding and twisting.
Ron seemed to realize something, and then took out a sand-colored gold card from his pocket.
"I see, I really don't have much cash with me."
Who would have thought that at the Navy Headquarters we would encounter such an auction with high-end items that was more terrifying than the average black market top auction. Ron did not have much cash on him.
but…
I'm really not short of money!
Tea Dolphin stared at the gold card in stunned silence, with the corners of his mouth twitching.
mmp!
Is this the VIP gold card of Golden Emperor Private Bank
That bank that won't accept you if you don't have a deposit of 10 billion
The prepared manuscript was directly disrupted by this gold card. Cha Dou watched blankly as Ron called a government agent who served as an attendant and asked him to take the gold card to handle the transfer procedures.
"Cang... Lieutenant General Canglong, he is really a rich man!"
The tea dolphin twitched the corners of his mouth with a stiff expression and began to doubt his life.
Why is there such a big gap between the rich and the poor among people who are also the top men on the reserve seats for generals
What do you want to do when you go out with 10 billion? ! !
Tea Dolphin was hit hard and doubted his life. He thought about whether he would be so rich if he gave up his habit of gambling.
On the other side, the auction was not suspended because the tea dolphin began to think about life. The subsequent money transactions of the auction were handled by government agents, and soon the second auction item was pushed out.
"The sharp knife has twenty-one pieces of pufferfish poison. The blade contains neurotoxins, which will flow into the body through the blood flow of the wound. The lethality is amazing!"
"The starting price is 200 million beli, and a single increase in price shall not be less than 10 million!"
This is a standard samurai sword with a length of about one meter. The shimmering mirror blade is lavender and has water-like patterns on it, which adds a bit of evil nature to it.
After Flying Squirrel finished speaking, Lieutenant General Stornobyli who was next to Peach Rabbit suddenly said: "This knife can be replaced with another big sharp knife... Well... As long as it can match my Kamami."
Stornobel took out a long blade from his waist, and with just one glance, Ron knew why he wanted to take out the pufferfish poison.
Because the weapon named Kamami is over one meter three in length. In comparison, Fugu, who is barely one meter tall, looks like a child.
No one stipulates that the swords of Nito-ryu swordsmen must be the same length, but Stonobelli is obviously one of them.
The pufferfish poison was too useless for him to cooperate with Kamiya, so he might as well exchange or sell it and find another one.
Most of the generals in this department follow the route of swordsmanship + physical skills. This puffer fish Stornobel can't be used, but the others can use it!
"Two hundred and thirty million!"
"Two hundred and fifty million!"
“…”
"Three hundred and ten million!"
Soon, the bidding price went up all the way. Although the big sword was not as good as the supreme sword, it was still a rare magic weapon. Every swordsman couldn't bear to miss it. If the flying squirrel didn't already have a big sword by his side, he would also bear it. Keep bidding.
Ron also did not participate in the bidding. He already had the Thunder Dragon Fangtian Halberd, and the other weapons were just a burden.
Moreover, you can’t mess around with money.
This auction is not so much about selling stolen goods as it is about the generals exchanging what they have and getting what they need under the witness of the government.
If Ron alone takes it all...
Believe it or not, I will be invited to have tea by Wulaoxing the next day? !
"Three hundred million Baileys!"
At this time, a bid that was lower than the existing price attracted the attention of the others. General Huoshaoshan looked at everyone with a smile and continued: "Then add a good sword, I guarantee it will be similar to your Kamami!"
"Hmm...is that your Feiyan?"
Stornobyl asked, Huo Shaoshan nodded.
"Ok, I see."
Stornobyl got the answer he wanted and nodded to the flying squirrel.
"The good and sharp sword Fifty Gong Feiyan is estimated to be 170 million beli, and the total value is 470 million!"
Although it is difficult for people to think highly of a good sword, things are rare and valuable. Compared to the devil fruits that even the government cannot count, there are only fifty, and an unknown number of good swords have been lost. It is normal for the price to be more expensive than Devil Fruit.
After the Flying Squirrel announced the final price, he raised his hammer.
"For the first time in 470 million..."
"Four hundred and seventy million for the second time..."
"Four hundred and seventy million for the third time!"
state!
"make a deal!"
After that, the auction continued. Ron was considered well-informed, but he still gained a lot of experience here.
In addition to tangible auction items, information and various materials can also be traded. At the same time, in addition to the lieutenant generals of the headquarters, government agents as representatives will also take action for certain auction items.
But since it is not something that must be handed over, the lieutenant generals will not give them face. As long as they like it, who can get it depends entirely on their financial resources.
For example, the G-series base where Lieutenant General Stirres is located recently discovered a mineral vein on the seabed. The initial exploration value is more than 5 billion, but it is extremely difficult to develop.
He auctioned off 30% of his shares to seek partners, and was eventually acquired by Taotu for a sky-high price of 1.3 billion.
It seemed that the government agents were not surprised at all that Taotu could offer 1.3 billion Baileys, but their final bid was 1.2 billion, which had already reached the limit of the funds they could mobilize, so it was a very uncomfortable loss.
"Probably Counselor He is behind Peach Rabbit, right?"
Ron looked at this scene thoughtfully.
No one can predict the profit that a mine can bring. If there is only 5 billion for preliminary exploration, including the cost of development and transportation, the two of them can at most protect their capital and earn some hard money.
But if it exceeds five billion or even tens of billions, it will be a bloody profit!
With such interests in front of him, it is worthy for Counselor He to take action.
Speaking of the navy, this organization is strange enough. It is obviously an army, and all military expenses should be allocated by the government to control the lifeline and prevent the tail from being too big.
But the World Government does not prohibit military members from being self-reliant. You have ways to make money, and as long as you don't cause trouble, they can turn a blind eye.
Not to mention those naval scum who "fend for themselves" in the original book. Nowadays, there is Ron who is extremely wealthy.
Sitting on dual shares of Golden City and Century City; receiving dividends from the arms business in charge of the Shichibukai Lao Cai of the Flower Country of the Western Sea; accepting taxes on trade between Sky Island residents and Qinghai residents; and its own G10 branch also robbed from time to time... Oh no, pay off the pirates …
All kinds of income add up, and you are extremely rich!
It is simply unrealistic to release this kind of hidden danger to the rule of the earth. Unless the army is too poor to support the army, it is absolutely impossible to allow the army to do business.
But the world government doesn't seem to be afraid that the military will be self-sufficient to support itself.
It is true that the current main source of funding for the navy still comes from the government. Ron's entire net worth combined would allow at most three G10-sized branches to be self-sufficient.
And the total number of navies in the world is not comparable to that of three G10s
But the hidden dangers are obvious, why not stop them
unless…
The government holds the trump card that even if the army rebels, it can easily suppress it!
For example…
Ancient weapons!
Ron frowned silently, having some guesses in his mind.
"I hope I'm overthinking it!"
If that is true, even if he stands at the level of Whitebeard in the future, it is not realistic at all to want to occupy the magpie's nest and take over the world government to rule the world.
