The low-key king of pirates

Chapter 98 The Manipulative Black Hand (Part [-])

After several days of sailing, the black submarine came to the island of beginning and end, Rogue Town.

Since Green accepted Bart as an apprentice, Richard and Richard became more respectful to him, with gratitude in their expressions.

Rogge Town is different from other islands. There are many ships coming and going on the pier, and a large number of sailors and pirates are walking around the pier, full of voices.

"Daz Bowness, I'll leave this to you." Green didn't get off the boat, but told Bowness.

"Don't worry, boss." Bowness looked very confident, and led Richard and Ali into the town.

"Aren't you going to take a look?" Hancock asked with concern when he saw Green who was a little curious.

"Next time! I don't want to cause trouble. Bownis' side is a big game. Our focus will shift over sooner or later."

Although Green was also a little interested in the place where One Piece was executed, it was just an interest.

After bidding farewell to the three of Bowness, the black submarine disappeared inconspicuously at the pier of Rogue Town.

Duanzhen, for the past month, the Black Dragon Society has carried out a bloody cleansing in the entire town.

Whether it is the remnants of the other two major underworld forces, or the remaining small and medium forces, the black dragon will frequently attack, with tough and cruel methods.

"I really didn't expect that Duanzhen, an illegal area, was unified by the Black Dragon Society in a short time. I didn't expect it!"

"Not only that, but the Black Dragon Society has now re-planned the construction of Duan Town, and is still training its subordinates intensively. This person is ambitious, and it seems that he has a lot of plans."

A group of people dressed in black sat in the tavern, listening to the chatter of the surrounding drinkers, and they discussed with emotion.

"We came here mainly to recruit Howard. It seems a bit difficult." A middle-aged man sat on a stool, his eyebrows frowned.

"If it doesn't work, we'll destroy this place directly. In the final analysis, he's just a gangster." The confidant on the other side obviously didn't take Duanzhen's power seriously.

And Howard, whom this group of people were planning to plan, was warmly entertaining the distinguished guest, Griffin.

"Brother, now I have passed the boss's test, right?" Howard poured a glass of spirits for Griffin himself, looking at Griffin expectantly.

"Well, the boss is very satisfied with your performance." Griffin nodded, and his expression became more easy-going.

"What to do next?" Howard asked.

Griffin took out two large boxes from behind and opened them in front of Howard, which contained 20 billion Baileys in cash.

"This much money?" Even Howard had expected it, but he couldn't hide the shock in his heart.

"Listen, the next plan is like this." Griffin said to Howard in the secret room.

The money was brought by Yongzhi. Germa 66 has a very wide channel, and the huge profit of refined salt makes Green's share even more.

In less than a year, the profits of the two floors were ridiculously high, and Yongzhi brought in a total of more than 30 billion.

Outsiders have no way of knowing what Griffin and Howard discussed. They only know that during this period of time, many members of the Black Dragon Society have dispersed to various places in the Goa Kingdom.

After the discussion between the two of Howard, a group of people ushered in the casino.

After asking about his identity, Mandegar brought the group of people to Howard's secret room.

Griffin looked at the group of people who walked in, and didn't speak, but just stood aside indifferently.

"I don't know if anyone has any advice?" After Howard unified the town, he seemed serious in speaking and doing things.

"We were sent by the royal family of Goya. His Majesty the King appointed you as the mayor of Duan Town. I wonder if you accept the order?" the middle-aged man asked straight to the point.

"Mayor?" Howard was overjoyed, and couldn't help but quietly glanced at Griffin next to him. Seeing that he didn't have the slightest expression, he couldn't help muttering.

"What do I need to do?" Howard asked since Griffin didn't object.

There is no such thing as a free lunch, and this group of people must have something in mind.

"Since you have become the manager of Duan Town, [-]% of Duan Town's tax revenue must be handed over to the royal family every month." The middle-aged man's tone was strong and unquestionable.

"Fifty percent?" Howard was taken aback. The royal family really wasn't a good thing. As a result, I wouldn't be as comfortable as before.

"Boss, I think it's feasible, let's start handing over next month!" Griffin suddenly suggested to Howard.

"Okay, but we won't be able to start paying taxes until next month. After all, Duanzhen is not stable right now." Howard, who is also an individual, understood the clue in an instant, and agreed immediately.

Howard knew that this was just a blank promise.

Next month, the royal family may not be able to take care of themselves, so there will be no trouble for them.

"Alright, this is the procedure of the Kingdom of Goa. If you have no objections, just sign it!" The middle-aged man looked very formal, and took out something similar to an agreement and put it in front of Howard.

Howard was very straightforward this time, and signed a series of documents without saying a word.

This group of people seemed to be quite satisfied with the result, and left directly with the signed text.

Griffin stayed in the casino completely, while Howard couldn't wish for it. With such a master, his own safety was also guaranteed.

In less than half a month, the atmosphere of the entire Goa Kingdom has undergone a slight change.

I don't know when it started, there are a large number of strange and wealthy businessmen in every part of the country who are buying salt at high prices, and the quantity is extremely large.

Unknowingly, the price of salt in Goya Kingdom increased five or six times in an instant.

"Payne, you have a good life in this little life of your family! Every day is full of fish and meat."

"Hey, auntie, our family sold the only remaining table salt and made a lot of money."

"I don't know who is buying the salt. How did it become so valuable?"

"I heard that some pirates attacked the salt factory of the Kingdom of Goa not long ago, and now this thing is in tight demand, and many rich merchants are hoarding this thing!"

"Oh, it's a shame. It seems that the price of this salt will rise in the future. Let's go stock up."

In a city in Goa Kingdom, two acquainted neighbors are also paying attention to this matter.

And the conversation between the two seems to be a microcosm of the whole country, and an inexplicable black hand is manipulating everything behind the scenes.

In just half a month, many wealthy businessmen and nobles also saw the huge benefits here, and hoarded them crazily.

At the port of Windmill Village, a black submarine docked quietly, and Green and others walked out of the hatch.
