King Arthur, Apprentice of Roger’s Company Chapter 090

“Mr. Arthur!”

“Mr. Germa.”

Arthur and Germa both smiled and returned to the office. That’s right! Arthur’s first goal on this voyage was still Germa, although Germa was no longer the top-tier powerhouse he once was in the North Blue.

Germa Kingdom!

Although it was now known as the North Blue overlord, its status and stability were definitely not up to par. However, this was not a big problem. Arthur believed that such a transaction would, of course, be no problem for Germa.

“Hehehe~~~”

Germa sat down and said with a smile, “Mr. Arthur, what is the meaning of your visit this time?”

To be honest!

Given that Arthur was no longer a pirate, Germa actually didn’t need to be so cautious. After all, theoretically, Arthur was no longer a member of the Roger Pirates. But! You can only listen to that. Although Arthur was no longer a pirate, no one said anything about the Roger Pirates, did they? Don’t joke around! Who doesn’t know the Roger Pirates’ protective nature? Seriously, if you bully Arthur now, you might be directly hunted down and killed tomorrow.

Therefore!

It was best to be honest. When it was truly confirmed that the Roger Pirates had problems in the future, then they could talk about it. Before that, being honest was the best outcome. Otherwise, everything else would not be good.

Arthur smiled and said, “Mr. Germa, since I’m here, of course, I want to continue doing business with you. After all, I’m not a pirate now, and this method is more suitable for me.”

“Business, huh…”

Germa pondered slightly, his mind full of thoughts! No joke, the last time he made a fortune. Seriously! He really made a fortune last time! He earned 1 billion Berries in one go, and did he need to do anything else? He just needed to apply some pressure, and it actually succeeded. Although the specific reason was not disclosed, Germa knew that he was only one of the kings who applied pressure, not all of them.

Therefore!

Germa was a smart man. He knew that Arthur was definitely not simple. And for such a man, well! It went without saying that if they could cooperate, they should. Besides! Arthur was rich! To put it bluntly, since he was such a rich partner, why consider so much?

“No problem!”

“No problem!”

Germa said with a smile and pride, “Mr. Arthur, just tell me directly! How do you plan to conduct the transaction? After all, when doing business, you have to discuss it properly.”

Arthur also smiled and said gently, “It’s very simple. I want to buy people from Mr. Germa! Of course, not the modified humans you produce, but orphans, fifteen to eighteen years old, with bodies superior to ordinary people! Orphans! Males! And no traces of any CP organization.”

Arthur spoke straightforwardly, and Germa also understood how vast the CP organization was. In this sea, to be honest, it was hard to say whether the Vinsmoke Family had been infiltrated. However, it was certain that other aspects had not been infiltrated, after all, his family were all modified humans. No matter how powerful you were, you couldn’t bribe modified humans!

“Hmm~~~”

“Human trafficking!”

Germa narrowed his eyes, secretly pondering this point, and calculated in his mind, “Excellent aptitude, male, orphan, 15 to 18 years old. It seems this man plans to train an army, but…”

Germa was also pondering this question and directly said, “Mr. Arthur, you should know the price, right?”

Arthur nodded and said, “The price of human slaves in the black market is 500, 000 Berries, and my request is 50, 000 Berries. Because the requirements vary, the prices will be adjusted accordingly. Mr. Germa, you can consider what price you need.”

Arthur was very calm. Just say it! How much do you want! Isn’t it just money? To be honest! Arthur really wasn’t short of money. Before leaving, Arthur also for the first time tallied how much treasure he had obtained from the Celestial Dragons in the Sabaody Archipelago. At that moment!

Arthur truly felt that the Celestial Dragons were too rich. Devil Fruits were just one of their less valued small collections, and the truly valued collections had nothing to do with these at all! They were truly too rich, completely incomparable!

At that moment!

Arthur understood how huge this gap was, and how big the difference was in between! This was truly no joke!

“Hmm~~~”

Germa pondered, and after a moment, said, “ 30, 000 Berries, Mr. Arthur, if your request is large enough! 30, 000 Berries, at this price, I can acquire orphans for you.”

Of course!

Germa wasn’t buying them. Germa planned to directly search throughout the North Blue. No joke! There were too many orphans, and with Germa’s methods, it was undoubtedly a certainty. Moreover! His technology could check their bones and muscles to determine their aptitude.

To put it bluntly!

Don’t think that no one in this world can determine aptitude. For these major forces, it can be done! Of course, pirates are an exception. By using technology to examine bones and muscles, they immediately understand what’s going on. Basically! As long as they’re not idiots, they’ll understand the situation.

“ 30, 000, huh…”

“No problem.”

Arthur smiled and said, “In that case, I want 100, 000 people!”

“……”

Holy crap!

Holy crap!

Germa seemed to remain silent, but the next moment he couldn’t help but swear. What kind of concept was this? 30, 000 Berries for 1 person, 300, 000 Berries for 10 people, 3, 000, 000 Berries for 100 people, 30, 000, 000 Berries for 1, 000 people! 300, 000, 000 Berries for 10, 000 people! And for 100, 000 people? That’s a whopping 3, 000, 000, 000 Berries!

Although!

Among the major forces, there were situations like Cobra casually taking out 2 billion Berries as if drinking water, and there were also forces like Germa who were so poor that they were almost on the verge of bankruptcy. There was no other way! For Germa, he was truly poor, he really had no money! The Germa Kingdom was a dignified superpower, and even the overlord of the North Blue!

But!

No way!

Germa was just poor, truly poor. Research needed money, clone soldiers needed money, modified humans needed money, everything needed money! These expenses were even more than recruiting people. Of course! The advantage was that there was no time cost, but the problem was! This was simply outrageous. With such expenses, Germa was so poor he was almost crying.

Germa’s proud Four Nations Kings incident! To put it nicely, he cut off the heads of four kings and made them into paintings! But to put it badly?

Hehehe~~~

Anyone who wasn’t an idiot knew that Germa was just poor and hired by others with money! Still short of money! No choice, he could only be a mercenary. And now, just human trafficking could earn 3 billion? Although the requirements were a bit high, given the Vinsmoke Family’s status in the North Blue, and the Germa Kingdom as a declining North Blue overlord, a lean camel was still bigger than a horse!

No joke!

He still had connections, not to mention! These were just orphans! Germa didn’t even need to go looking for them himself; he could just make a profit from the difference. Besides! The kings were all considering how to deal with orphans. These orphans cost money! Wasted resources! If you didn’t manage them, problems would still arise. So! These orphans were inherently a problem.

Let alone spending money, even if Germa just wanted them, those kings would be willing to give them to Germa. So! These orphans really weren’t a problem, the problem was quite small.

“Hmm~~~”

“Hahahaha~~~”

After a brief silence, Germa laughed loudly and said, “No problem! No problem! Mr. Arthur, this transaction is too simple. Let me think! Five months, no! Three months, at most three months, 100, 000 qualified orphans, absolutely no problem at all.”

Germa was practically pounding his chest to make a promise. No joke! This was truly no problem at all!

Arthur continued to smile and said, “Mr. Germa, don’t rush. This transaction is just the first step. Next! There are other transactions.”

To be honest!

The price Arthur offered was expensive, but Arthur was also very clear that the price he gave was very expensive. However, sometimes, you really couldn’t save money. Besides! Money? It was the one thing he wasn’t short of! (Read exciting novels, go to Feilu Novel Network!)

“You continue!”

“You continue!”

Germa now truly looked like he was telling Arthur to continue. That look, one might not know what Germa meant!

“Hehehe~~~”

Arthur smiled and said, “Mr. Germa, I want to buy some ordinary people from you. Since I gave up my pirate identity, I naturally want to establish a nation. And you also know what is most lacking when establishing a nation from scratch.”

“Hmm!”

Listening to Arthur, Germa nodded. To be honest, he had no confusion, but rather looked like he had already guessed it. This was really not strange. Germa was not an idiot. Arthur was buying people, and buying this and that!

As long as Germa wasn’t brain-damaged, he would know what Arthur’s intentions were. After a brief thought, Germa pondered and said, “Mr. Arthur, if you want to buy people, it’s not difficult! However…”

Arthur nodded and said, “No problem, just normal population purchases will do. No need for further screening. As for age! Let’s set it at 15 to 20 years old. As for the number… 100, 000 males and 100, 000 females will suffice.”

To be honest!

Arthur didn’t need just these people, nor did he want them to have children or anything! He just needed the numbers. You can’t establish a nation with no people in it! And if he recruited externally, who knew what kind of monsters and freaks he would get? By purchasing them this way, the people would be safer, and he had ways to continue screening and selecting them. This was a minor issue.

“Hmm!”

“In that case…”

He pondered for a moment, then said, “ 3, 000 Berries per person, Mr. Arthur, this price is basically the lowest. Although! They are not considered people, if you have age requirements, then! These people are still quite valuable.”

Indeed!

In this vast sea, ordinary people are not considered people at all, and anything can be done to them. There are plenty of them! However, if you have age restrictions on your purchases, then it’s different! This still involves many problems and requirements.

“Hmm!”

Arthur smiled and nodded, “No problem, Mr. Germa, then it’s settled. A total of 200, 000 people, how long will it take?”

Arthur smiled and asked. These 200, 000 people actually didn’t cost much, 300 million Berries for 100, 000 people, a total of 600 million Berries. This expense was already very small, but! This was in Arthur’s eyes. No way! It’s still the same old saying! Arthur was rich!

“Good!”

“Good!”

Germa immediately nodded without hesitation and said, “Alright, Mr. Arthur, these people are very easy to acquire. How about this, also three months, how about it?”

Arthur pondered slightly and said, “Okay, three months will be fine. We’ll conduct the transaction after three months.”

“No problem!”

Germa nodded without hesitation, and he had already thought that if Arthur didn’t have a ship by then, he would deliver them himself. What’s the big deal? It’s just a little fuel cost, that really doesn’t count for much.

It could only be said!

Germa really made a fortune. 300, 000 people, and he earned 3.6 billion Berries. For Germa, this was simply soaring, and for Arthur, problems that could be solved with money and with someone’s help, wasn’t that easy?

Hmm!

Both of them felt like they had made a profit. It could only be said that doing business was like this; when everyone felt like they had made a profit, then it was truly good.

Next!

Arthur and Germa continued to discuss for a bit, and Germa even took Arthur on a tour of his laboratory. To be honest, this was the attitude towards a sugar daddy. Arthur wasn’t particularly interested in these things, but!

Arthur and Germa still discussed it briefly! Finally, Arthur made a deal with Germa. If he developed simple weapons in the future, he would buy a batch.

After all!

The lineage factor developed by the Vinsmoke Family was indeed excellent. As for other problems? These were minor issues! As long as Germa wanted to, with his ability, developing simple equipment that wasn’t a transformation suit was truly simple.

“Hmm~~~”

Germa pondered slightly and considered, “Mr. Arthur! If you have any ideas, I can make this transaction a long-term one with you.”

“Long-term transaction?”

Arthur also pondered slightly. To be honest, this matter was just a casual chat between the two, but Germa clearly had more ideas. Obviously! He saw that Arthur was rich!

In the past, Germa had indeed never thought of selling things like this for money. In his opinion, as a scientist! As a king! Did he still need this much money?

But!

At this moment!

Germa started to have ideas. No joke! When he was directly hit on the head with money by a rich man, Germa instantly understood. Didn’t he want to do research? Didn’t he want the status of the North Blue overlord? Wasn’t money the one thing he lacked the most? This big boss in front of him had money! In that case, how about doing business with this big boss?

The idea that Germa had once put aside instantly came back up. This time, he had to research it properly.

“Hmm~~~”

Arthur nodded slightly and pondered, “Mr. Germa, if you can provide some samples, then it can indeed be tried! After all, you also know that no matter how soldiers are trained, they have their limits.”

“No problem!”

“Good!”

Germa immediately nodded. Yes! No matter how soldiers were trained, they could only become elites. Even Marine elites were the same. Compared to true powerhouses, they were simply insignificant. As long as there were powerhouses with large-scale destructive power, then in front of them, soldiers were simply meaningless, unless the numbers were so vast that they reached an unparalleled level.

Through forced attrition over time, to put it bluntly, it was to wear down these powerhouses to death, otherwise, it was simply meaningless!
