General Lanlin of One Piece

Chapter 717 Military expenditure has never been so rich

Inside Akainu's office.

Smoker, Drake and others looked at Rorschach who was surrounded by Sengoku, Garp and others with strange expressions. They couldn't understand why Rorschach was suddenly so popular?

The smiles on Sengoku and Garp's faces were even flattering.

This is incredible.

Dasqi looked at Yunque curiously and asked in a low voice: "Yunque, do you know what happened?"

Hearing this, several people around him looked at Yunque.

Skylark blushed slightly and whispered: "I can't explain it for a while. Anyway, the reason why they are so enthusiastic about Brother Rorschach is that Brother Rorschach has made a lot of money for the Navy Headquarters."

"You made a lot of money? How much?" Drake was surprised.

He couldn't figure out how much money could make the retired Sengoku, Garp, and Grandma He succeed like this.

Look at the smiles on their faces, they look like blooming chrysanthemums.

Skylark shook his head: "I don't know the specific number, but it should be at least... 500 billion beli..."

"How much? Five...five hundred billion beli??" Drake's eyes almost flew out of their sockets.

He was so shocked that his voice was distorted, and he couldn't help but scream in the marshal's office, startling the people in the Warring States Period who were chatting happily.

"Drake! What are you doing here, you bastard? If you have nothing to do, go and greet the new recruits!"

Warring States stuck out his head and roared in this direction, which made Derek shrink his neck in fright, and ran away in despair along with Smoker, Bebo and the others.

After Zhan Guo finished roaring, he looked at Luo Xia with a smile, stretched out his big hand and patted Luo Xia's shoulder affectionately.

"Rorschach, I didn't expect you to be so capable. In less than a month, you not only completely solved our recruitment problem, but also increased the military expenditure of our headquarters by so much. How can we thank you?" You? Come on, tell me how you did it."

"Yes, yes, 500 billion beli. Oh my god, how much is that? A hundred Kaidos are not worth that much. Rorschach, you have to teach me how to make money." I’ve been short of money recently. I don’t even have money to go to Hua Street... ahem, I mean, I don’t even have money to eat.”

Jiaji licked his face and racked his brains to praise Rorschach crazily while trying to get some money-making skills from Rorschach.

Rorschach twisted his shoulders, which were held down by several big hands. He couldn't bear the entanglement of several people, and pointed at Morgans, who had his legs crossed and was being served very comfortably by Brannew.

"Why are you hanging around me like this? Morgans sponsored the money, and he contacted the people. Bailey also had to rely on his newspaper's turnover to get it here. He should be the one you want to thank."

Morgans chuckled, took a sip of the tea handed over by Brannew, "What are you talking about, Lieutenant General Rorschach? Without your advice, how could I earn tens of billions of Baileys in a day? Although I We spent 500 billion beli, but compared to the profits that can be generated from our cooperation in the future, this contribution is really insignificant.”

"Slightly...insignificant."

Jiaji swallowed and looked at Morgans as if he were looking at a god of wealth.

Five hundred billion beli is insignificant.

Listen, is this human talk?

Ever since Morgans arrived at G1 yesterday ahead of Rorschach and gave the billion Beli sponsorship he promised to Akainu, Sengoku and others who were present at the time went crazy and almost danced on the spot.

It was just so exciting that I almost went crazy with joy.

All along, the navy's military expenditures have been distributed like a stranglehold by the superiors.

Except for the time when the Rozwald family died, the Five Old Stars have never been more forthcoming about military expenditures.

It can be said that the military expenditures of the Navy Headquarters are stretched every year and cannot make ends meet.

In order to squeeze out more benefits for the lower-level soldiers, it is difficult enough to maintain the daily operations of branches in various places.

Once there is a war like the G1 Battle of the Sea, the Battle of Totland, and the Battle of Marinevando, the huge consumption of ammunition and the casualty pensions of the sailors will give the naval marshal Sengoku a headache that will keep him awake all night.

Sengoku thought that after Akainu came to power, he would be the one to worry about the navy's military expenses.

But who would have thought that as soon as Akainu came to power, before all the military funds allocated from above were spent, someone would take the initiative to send 500 billion in military support.

And not only that, every time the telephones on the coffee table in front of them ring, their military expenditures will increase by hundreds of millions, or more than a billion.

Breaking Sengoku and Garp's heads, they couldn't figure out why the broadcast rights Rorschach and Morgans talked about were so valuable.

From yesterday to now, hundreds of copies of the broadcasting rights for the Navy's recruitment have been sold. Even if the revenue is half and half with Morgans, the Navy has already earned more than 30 billion beli.

Where is the business here?
This is clearly a money grab.

Even the Marie Joa Bailey printing house built by the World Government in the center of the Holy Land cannot print so many Baileys in one day.

This terrifying method of amassing money made Warring States once think that he had gone crazy.

Just as he was talking, he saw Brannew answer another ringing phone with quick eyes and hands.

"This is the Holy Poplar Kingdom. I am Pobla, Morgans. I want to buy the rights to broadcast the naval recruitment event. For the two billion Baileys, do you want to take it yourself, or let President Sauron help bring it to the New World?" navy?"

"Two billion?" Warring States wiped the non-existent saliva from the corner of his mouth and held his breath, not daring to take a breath for fear that the military expenditures he was about to receive would disappear because of his interference.

Brannew didn't dare to interrupt, so he had to pick up the phone bug on the table and wanted to hand it to Morgans, but saw Rorschach waving, "Give it to me."

"Oh, okay." Brannew quickly and respectfully handed the phone bug to Rorschach's hand.

Perhaps he recognized Rorschach's voice. Pobla on the other end of the phone was surprised and said, "Is it Rorschach?"

"Haha, it's me, Your Majesty Bobla. You're fine. Are you feeling well?" Luo Xia said hello with a smile.

"What can happen to me? There are naval bases and bounty hunter guilds stationed in my kingdom. A troublesome pirate or criminal would not dare to come. Every day, in addition to eating, drinking and having fun, the fat on my body is It’s increased a lot.”

Pobra is as approachable as ever, without any pretense of being a king of the franchise country.

Rorschach chatted with him for a while and asked curiously: "Did you just say that Sauron is coming to the new world?"

"Yeah, didn't he tell you?"

Pobla lamented:

"Since Jonathan left, Sauron inherited his bounty hunter guild and became the president of the guild. He plans to move the headquarters of the bounty hunter guild to the new world.

Rorschach, if possible, I may need to trouble your navy to help him gain a foothold in the new world.

Although his guild was considered powerful in Paradise, it was still too dangerous to go to a place like the New World. "

Rorschach nodded: "No problem. When the time comes, I will ask him to come to the sea area protected by my G5 and open the headquarters of the Bounty Hunter Guild. We can also take care of each other, and it is not impossible to even form an alliance."

"Oh? That's great. You also have the broadcast rights that Morgans mentioned, right?" Pobla was overjoyed and then asked.

"Yes, it's a small attempt by Morgans and I."

Pobla was silent for a moment and asked tentatively: "Can I join your cooperation project?"

"Oh? Are you talking about... a live broadcast project, or..." Luo Xia raised her eyebrows.

"I want to participate in all your future projects." Pobla said directly without mincing words:

"This is a novel way of making money that I have never seen before. It must be your idea, right? It's really ingenious and surprising. I am also a businessman who likes to study how to make money, but I never thought of it. However, you can use the live broadcast of the video phone bug to sell tickets and make money. Your method has broadened my horizons. I think you must have a more profitable way."

Morgans was unhappy. He muttered unhappily: "Pobra, what do you mean, you damn fat guy? Look down on me? Why do you conclude that I didn't come up with that idea?"

Pobla sneered: "It's just you? If you have such a brain, how about selling newspapers that are decades old? If I expect you to make money from the outdated news in your newspapers, the day lily will be cold."

Morgans choked to silence.

"Rorschach, what do you think? I can pay." Pobla asked Rorschach again.

Rorschach touched his chin and fell into thought.

Pobla is indeed a shrewd person as good as Morgans. He actually saw the huge business opportunities hidden in just the sale of the broadcast rights of an event.

Speaking of which, when this guy came to the Holy Land to hold the World Conference, he even brought a photo album of Rorschach for sale. He was really a weird one among the many kings of the participating countries.

It is not impossible for him to join Seagull Pictures as a shareholder.

Although he and Morgans are the first people in the world to eat the grapes of the film and television industry, they can form a monopoly market and earn unimaginable wealth.

But such a huge cake cannot be enjoyed by just two people.

If there were rich and powerful people like Pobra or Tezzoro working together to run his money-making ideas, then the huge stall envisioned by him and Morgans would be able to spread out quickly and quickly occupy the global market.

Thinking like this, Rorschach made up his mind, glanced at Morgans, and said to Bobla who was waiting for his reply on the other end of the phone:

"I can agree to you joining our project, but Morgans, I'm afraid you need to have a detailed discussion with him in private.

In addition, I want to give you a mental preparation. You may not make any money in the early stage, and you will have to pay a large sum of money.

If you think about it clearly, this sum of money is not a small amount. Morgans, for example, spent 500 billion, and this is only the funds to sponsor the navy, not including the investment in those projects. "

"Five hundred billion? It's indeed a big number. Well... I agree, and I will also give you five hundred billion. As for how much share I can occupy in your project with this little money, We’ll talk about it then.”

Pobla agreed readily without much thought.

As his voice fell on the phone, Sengoku and Kaji slipped and fell on the sofa.

Akainu, who was sitting behind the desk, raised his head and glanced at Rorschach. He had a cigar in his mouth and his face was a little stiff.

Kizaru's pouted mouth could hold a teapot.

The huge office fell into an eerie silence.

The quiet atmosphere didn't last long. On the coffee table in front of Warring States, the phone started ringing again.

Warring States swallowed his saliva, and carefully held the buzzing phone bug in his hands as if holding some fragile treasure, and handed it to Rorschach.

Seeing Seng Guo's slightly trembling hands, the corners of Luo Xia's mouth twitched.

"Are you concerned? It's only 500 billion, so it scares you like this? You said you were a naval marshal after all."

Warring States' lips wriggled, but he didn't say anything because the phone bug in Rorschach's hand was connected.

The caller was Tezzolo, whose business acumen was just as good as Pobra's. He talked about cooperation from the very beginning. As for the broadcast rights, he looked down upon them.

The three of them had a conversation and quickly finalized their intention to cooperate.

At the same time, Tezzolo will also provide the Navy Headquarters with a fund of 500 billion beli to serve as a stepping stone for project cooperation.

Warring States and others were completely numb when they heard that another 500 billion beli military expenditure had been received.

How long has it been since then? How much has the Navy Headquarters’ military expenditure increased?
The Warring States Period has been countless.

Rorschach looked at the stunned people around him, stood up and said: "Let me tell you, Uncle Sakaski, don't you have any objections to my unauthorized use of the Navy recruitment as a live event and broadcasting it to the whole world? I I mean, joining the army for justice is, after all, a formal and solemn matter. Wouldn’t it be a bit unserious to broadcast it live like this?”

"Opinions? You have spent a few days preparing military expenditures for the headquarters that we have been unable to obtain in the past few years. How dare we have any opinions?" Warring States rolled his eyes crazily, pointed at Akainu, who had a dark face and said: "Stop talking about opinions, you are now Even if he packs up the G1 island and sells it, Sakaski wouldn’t dare to give up.”

The stunned Skylark burst out laughing, and then immediately covered his mouth.

"Ahem, Rorschach." Jiaji coughed, pulled Rorschach's sleeve, and said a little embarrassedly: "Can I invest in some of your projects?"

Luo Xia raised an eyebrow: "You? Okay, how much do you invest?"

Jiaji held out five fingers.

"I put in five million shellfish..."

"Get out!"

Before he could finish his words, Sengoku flew up and kicked him in the butt, sending him flying out of Akainu's office.

Luo Xia smiled bitterly, reached out to pick up Skylark, who was still snickering, and walked out.

"In this case, let's think about how to start this recruitment competition."
