Chapter 121: So brave
Chapter 121: So brave
Afterwards, the three of them continued walking in the base, looking at an empty land, Louis asked Yixiao: "According to the plan mentioned before, when do you think the new military town will be completed?"
Louis had no experience in supervising construction in this area, but Yixiao and Gion carried out the expansion and fortification project of the base, so they can be regarded as more or less "experts". And Gion will be responsible for the training of new recruits, so there is no need for it. Asking her.
After thinking for a while, he said:
"The military town is actually not as complicated as we thought. In terms of construction, we don't need to prepare everything for the residents who are going to move later. We only need to build some large and empty frameworks.
The rest, those residents can do on their own.Therefore, the amount of the project is not large. According to the planning process, as long as there is sufficient labor and work is done day and night, the military town can be built within a year. "
"Okay! Then work hard day and night!" Louis said without hesitation.
He didn't regard those Impel Down prisoners as human beings at all.
Prisoners and so on, as long as they can't die, they will die!
What he wants now is to achieve results and become a general.
Although Yixiao is benevolent and righteous, he is not the Holy Mother and will not use his benevolence and righteousness on these 'scum'. Besides, Louis has always treated him well and never treated him badly.
It should be said that Yixiao is now considered by everyone to be a direct descendant of Louis, and in fact this is indeed the case.Putting aside the issues of justice and injustice, Yixiao thought clearly.
Once Louis is promoted to general, his status will definitely rise. With his strength, it will not be a problem to even win the title of candidate for general in the future.
even…
He suppressed some small thoughts in his heart and responded immediately with a smile: "Understood!"
After arranging Yixiao's affairs, Louis looked at Gion and said, "We have a lot of Baileys in our hands. You should be very clear about that?"
"Of course, you want flowers?" Gion said with a smile.
"No, I just want to tell you that G-6 is not short of money now, and I will find ways to continue to make money in the future.
The wave of the Great Pirate Age has already swept around here...
Not long ago, Kuzan failed to capture Crocodile, and judging from his whereabouts at that time, he was not far from our waters. Even if he was one step faster than those newcomers, this step was not too exaggerated.and…"
Having said this, Louis raised his hand and pointed to the sea not far away and said: "And the pirates swarming in will soon fill up the sea. One of the responsibilities of the navy is to protect a place's peace. When that time comes, Good fight!
It is necessary to allow these new recruits to transform into veterans in the shortest possible time, and to select outstanding seedlings from them and focus on cultivating them. "
Gion understood what Louis said. The wave of the great pirate era was probably about to sweep over G-6.Most of the troops here now are new recruits. Logically speaking, they should fight steadily.
But Louis has a lot of money on his mobile phone, and he clearly told Gion that he would use iron and blood to forge a strong G-6 army.
Let her go to war with new recruits, and a little money can be used to supplement losses through conscription.
Although Gion is not as cruel as Louis, she also understands that this is the main theme of the times and no one can escape it.
Therefore, she nodded in response, and then added with a smile:
"Speaking of good seeds, I really found one this time, which is pretty good."
"Oh? Really! What's his name?" Louis asked with a smile.
Are there any good seeds so soon?Those who can be rated as good seedlings by Gion must be good, and Louis is also looking forward to it.
"That man's name is Vergo, he was born in Beihai..." Gion grinned.
Virgo? ? ?
"Tsk, if it's the 'Virgo' I remember, that would be interesting..." Louis thought in his heart.
It is very common for people with the same name to appear on the sea, so Louis did not dare to make a direct conclusion until he saw him again.
But, so what?
Could he still be doing something sexy under Louis' nose?
Soon, Louis stopped thinking about it, and the three of them continued to check in the base...
Then, time passed like this day by day...
The calm zone, the edge of an island somewhere.
Two huge warships are docked here, and on the island, a group of geological exploration experts are discussing something in front of a hill.
In front of Louis was a cave excavated by exploration, with several mounds of soil piled near the cave.
He reached out and took out a piece of dark ore from the mound, squeezed it, and asked a man dressed as a scholar next to him: "Is this iron ore?"
The man said excitedly: "Yes, Lieutenant General, after our exploration and data analysis, we found that the iron ore content on this island is extremely high, and the mining difficulty is also very low. There are even many open-pit mines."
Louis nodded, then threw the iron ore in his hand on a nearby mound and murmured softly: "It's iron ore again..."
It is now the year 1502 of the Haiyuan calendar. During the nearly two years of exploration in the windless zone, three islands with good iron ore content have been discovered, and this is the fourth one.
To be honest, Louis was quite excited at first, but now, he feels dull.
Why the hell is it iron ore again? !
"It would be great if it were a gold mine..." Louis subconsciously complained.
As soon as he finished speaking, the expressions of several experts beside him were a little embarrassed.
To be honest, if gold mines were so easy to find, gold would have depreciated long ago.
It is precisely because gold mines are rare that gold is expensive!
Looking at their expressions, Louis didn't say anything more, reached out and patted their shoulders and said: "Keep working hard."
He knew in his heart that this kind of thing was not their fault, it was purely a matter of luck.
As for the headquarters, they were very happy that Louis could find the iron ore island.After all, for making cannons, guns, swords, etc., the demand for iron ore is very large.
In fact, Louis also just knew some secrets.
That is, the output of the naval arms manufacturing has not been very high.
The warships were outsourced to the Seven Rivers Capital, and he knew this.
But what he didn't expect was that the navy itself only produced a small part of the artillery, guns and ammunition, and most of it was financed by governments around the world.
But within the world's governments, corruption is very serious. Although they have mature manufacturing technology and want to be powerful, they just don't make it themselves.
They had to go out and find someone to buy it. As for why, it was because they figured out, good guy, this is much cheaper than building it yourself, and they can even go crazy in it.
Louis suddenly thought that in the original work, Doflamingo and Kaido were the giants of the dark arms market, and Mary Joa did have transactions with them.
But he originally thought that this transaction was only a small part, but he never imagined that it actually accounted for the majority.
No wonder the world government panicked when Doflamingo fell. As for whether it was because of his identity as a former Celestial Dragon?
Please, how could Marie Joa do this for Doflamingo without any real interests?
Perhaps Wulaoxing has thought about rectifying many of the problems here, but it is hard to get rid of them. How to solve the problems that have persisted for so many years?
If you move, it will affect your whole body. You can only do it slowly and gently.
However, as the soup continued to simmer, the soup cook was already dead before it was ready.
In short, as the helmsman of the world's government, the Five Old Stars must hope that their rule can continue.
But the problem is difficult to solve, not to mention that it coincides with the chaos of the great pirate era.The giant ship of world government can be said to be precarious. If you are not careful, it will fall apart and sink.
But these have nothing to do with him, Louis. His main concern is still the situation of the navy.
His current goal is to strive to promote a mature system for the navy to manufacture its own armaments.
The Warring States General and Marshal Kong also agreed very much with this matter, but again, the money was not enough.
The emergence of iron ore has effectively alleviated the acuteness of this problem. As the development of the windless zone has achieved initial results, senior officials are becoming more and more concerned about this matter.
I heard that the headquarters has secretly ordered Teacher Bo and Sakaski to reorganize logistics and arms manufacturing. I believe that there will be certain results in the near future.
