Just like Gronn in the field of cooking, goblin merchants in the field of commerce, big boss Cassandra in the field of romantic industry, Fatty Cameron is undoubtedly in the slave trade and arena-related operations. His absolute authority cannot be matched by anyone. Although Gron's desire to start the slave trade was a sudden thought, the more he thought about it, the more he felt that this was a crucial step that would have a huge impact on their future development.
The Blade Tower Continent is currently in a troubled time. There are constant frictions between the border areas and the tribes of the humanoid and demi-human empires. There are also undercurrents among the major human empires, and they are eyeing each other. Even within the Holy Beast Alliance, there is also a lot of nastiness between the imperial royal family and the major principalities. , although no world-class war has broken out yet, small- and medium-scale wars and the destruction of ancient nobles are happening every day. In this general environment, all kinds of commercial activities will be affected to some extent, but only the slave trade is becoming more and more popular. In the market, captured warriors, craftsmen, girls, and children from defeated countries, as well as wives and young ladies from overthrown noble families, are everywhere. Occasionally, there are even princesses of princes and magister-level magicians.
Slave trade is the fastest way to quickly acquire outstanding talents, and it is also the easiest way to directly transform more and more money into actual power. There is no doubt about the importance of this to Goron and his gang, who have no other powerful capital except a huge amount of money. Cassandra and Tarkin Hillman are both wise people and can analyze it in an instant. Pros and cons. Even the big boss himself was once placed on the booth at the slave auction house. Although it was an extremely humiliating and sad memory. But this will not make the big boss who has put aside all the past events oppose the decision made by Goron. Moreover, if Goron's plan goes smoothly, her "old street" will be the biggest beneficiary of the slave trade. Everyone knows that the slave trade is a very deep water, and the interests involved in it are intricately entangled. No connections, no channels, no strength, no funds, no foundation, no background. Without these conditions, it is just a daydream to enter the industry. The slave trade is definitely not something anyone can get involved in if they want to. Gron had just started it as a last-minute idea, but when he thought about it more deeply, he realized how difficult it would be to start from scratch. Moreover, he has too many things to do on his own. Tarkin Hillman has to deal with the extremely important underground arms/fire factory, and there is no room for things at Big Boss Laojie. The little goblin is young after all. No experience in this area. As for ogres such as Balu, although they already have reason and wisdom, the image of ogres makes them unable to do such jobs.
At this time, Fat Cameron actually offered to work for Gron. This kind of thing is no different from pie in the sky. But Goron, who grew up listening to stories since childhood, deeply knows an eternal truth, that is
Pies will not fall from the sky.
"Tell me your reasons. I want to hear the truth." Goron held his chin. He said with a smile: "I heard that you are connected with the pirate group of Haishi Bay. Could it be related to this?" "But not long ago, the famous pink skull pirate group suddenly came to me. They said they wanted to cooperate with me. We were all old friends, and their power and reputation could really help me a lot, so I agreed without thinking too much. At first, they just asked me to help with some matters. 'Dirty goods', and the slaves they captured. These were all very simple things, and there was plenty of oil and water, so I was very happy doing it. But later, they actually fought the ghost ship 'Rainbow Bird' Damn it, that bitch, she must be crazy, only a madman would think of that damn broken ship! They just want to die, but they want to drag me along, saying What only I can do”
At this point, the fat man seemed to realize that he had let something slip, and quickly shut his mouth. After hesitating for a while, he changed the topic: "I know the horror of that ghost ship better than anyone else. Anyway, what do I say?" None of them would have anything to do with it, so I rejected the Pink Skull, but they said they were unwilling to let me go, and even threatened that if I didn’t do what they said, they would lose everything I have now. Damn it, it made me anxious all day long. I had to deploy a large number of people to protect myself at all times, and I didn’t dare to relax for a moment."
"With your previous strength, you didn't even take our old street seriously, so you shouldn't be afraid of a group of pirates." Cassandra interrupted Cameron in a weird tone and said: "You have something in your hand. We have money, important people, and slave gladiators from the arena as our thugs. If we can fight against our ogres, how can we not be able to deal with a group of pirates? "
As if he didn't hear the sarcasm in the big boss's tone, Fatty Cameron continued: "That's because you don't understand the true strength of the 'Pink Skulls'. They are the bosses of all pirate groups in this sea area. No one dares to defy the 'Pink Skulls'." The order given by "Skeleton", and the captain "Blooded Sanga" is a strong warrior at the king level. If she makes up her mind to kill me, there will be no way for me to survive. But if I obey them and go find As for the ghost ship, it's a dead end. I'm really worried about it. In fact, I'm not afraid of you laughing at me. The main reason why I want to participate in this siege is to hide in the army and let the pink skull escape. Don't dare to act rashly, and at the same time, you can find a reason for yourself to continue to delay. It is best to wait until the damn ghost ship leaves this sea area. If you don't believe it, you can carefully recall what I had done from the beginning. If you mobilize all the elite gladiators to hold back your ogres and cooperate with others to launch a fierce attack, the Haunted Gold Mine will not be able to hold on for so long. Sometimes when your situation is unfavorable, I will even deliberately hold others back. In fact, I have been helping you delay time."
