Farming in Pirate World

"One hundred million beli! One hundred million beli! This gentleman bids one hundred million beli to take home the beautiful mermaid lady!"

Roz Alexander had just made a bid, and the auction house suddenly became noisy.

After 6000 million beli, the price increased by about 100 million beri every time, and sometimes even increased by hundreds of thousands of beli.

Roz Alexander raised the price for the first time, from 9000 million beli to [-] million beli. It seemed that he was determined to win.

After the hustle and bustle, no one easily bid more than [-] million beli.

Everyone present is a person of identity, and you are more or less aware of the identity of Ross Alexander.

As one of the "White Gloves" of the Celestial Dragons, Ross Alexander is well-known. Even if it is a rare race, if you want to take it as your own, you must consider the impact of buying it.

In terms of strength, they are not afraid of Ross Alexander, but because a mermaid makes it easier for him to turn against him, it is not worth it.

"Humph, it's just a dog raised by the Celestial Dragons. Is that what scares you like this?"

An extremely arrogant cold snort came. Li Ming turned around and found that the person who made the sound was the king who had bid 6000 million beli.

After becoming arrogant, the king immediately raised his hand and slowly called out the price:

"One hundred and ten million Baileys!"

"This gentleman offers 1000 million beli,"

"Is there anyone else with a higher bid?!"

Originally, Mr. Disco was a little disappointed when he saw that no one dared to bid. Now that the king raised the price by 1000 million, Mr. Disco's heart dropped again.

In fact, according to his budget, if this mermaid can be purchased for more than [-] million beli, it is already considered good.

But who would think that money is too little?

You know, the auction house itself has to take [-]% of the auction price for the goods auctioned from this auction house!

With a price of 4000 million beli, the auction house alone made a net profit of [-] million beli.

There are many people who are willing to do the slave trade, a profiteering business without capital.

"Bumpkin."

The king was quite disdainful of Ross Alexander, but to Ross, the identity of the other king was not worth mentioning at all.

"That bumpkin from the backwoods? If you take out this money, you will probably bring out all the capital in the treasury."

"If we go back like this, we might be overthrown by the villagers under our command."

For Rhodes, he has memories of the kings of the more powerful countries among all the countries that are members of the World Government, and at least he has to ensure that he will not provoke them for trivial matters.

If it were a big country like Kobra, with a population of tens of millions, Ross Alexander would not even dare to fart, and would definitely shut up and let the mermaid out.

Being versatile is a basic skill of a businessman.

But this so-called king, Ross Alexander, didn't have much impression. He was obviously just a bumpkin from a remote island.

Just like the magnetic drum country, although it is called a kingdom, the country does not even have a population of 10, and the location is extremely remote. A relatively powerful pirate can defeat the country alone.

If Ross becomes the king of such a small country, he will definitely sacrifice all his citizens as slaves to the Celestial Dragons in exchange for the permanent right of residence of Malijoa.

"One hundred and ten million Baileys!"

Ross Alexander raised his hand leisurely and quoted slowly.

"Okay, this gentleman bids again, 2000 million beli! This really sets a record for the auction!"

"Faced with such a high price, I don't know which king will choose to retreat or choose to face the difficulties!"

Mr. Disco's eyes lit up. As a professional auctioneer, he could tell the situation of the two people at a glance.

These two people obviously want to fight!

In the auction house, this is the most taboo situation for buyers.

But for sellers, this situation is a godsend!

Especially when faced with such an expensive auction, in order to be angry, the amount of the two people's bidding increased greatly each time, and the profit was also the highest.

Faced with this situation, Mr. Disco did not hesitate to choose to start a fight between the two men in an attempt to raise the auction price to a higher level.

"One hundred and ten million Baileys!"

Sure enough, facing Ross Alexander's ridicule and Mr. Disco's anger, the king chose to bid without hesitation.

Ross Alexander frowned slightly. He saw Mr. Disco's methods, but at this time, he was already riding a tiger.

Then all we have to do is fight for financial resources!

"One hundred and ten million Baileys!"

Coax~

The whole place was in an uproar.

One hundred and forty million beli, this price definitely exceeds the value of the mermaid clan itself.

"One hundred and forty-five million beli!"

The king continued to bid.

"The price increase this time is only 500 million beli. Is it because your warehouse is already empty?"

"One hundred and fifty million beli."

Roz Alexander bid again, and everyone in the auction house focused their attention on the king.

Everyone can see that this king is already running out of energy.

This feeling of crushing his opponent made Roz Alexander want to laugh, but he couldn't.

The mermaid, who originally thought he could securely win with 5000 million beli, now bids [-] million beli, which is a full [-]% more than the original plan!

Five percent! 5000 million Baileys!What is this concept?

This price is enough to buy some remote islands in their entirety!

However, this is not over yet.

Under the gaze of everyone, the king wiped the sweat from his forehead, kept thinking about the property he could bring out, and finally gritted his teeth!

"I'll add another 500 million!"

Now it is no longer just a problem of one mermaid tribe, this is a war between two of them!

Whoever gives in first will lose!

"Again?"

Ross Alexander felt angry for a while, thinking that this bumpkin was really ungrateful!

"With another 500 million, are you going to sell your shabby palace? Or are you going to sell your people as slaves?"

"When you sell your country, remember to contact me. If you beg me, maybe I will give you more money and help you keep a bed, so that you don't even have a place to sleep."

Ross Alexander mocked a few words with disdain, then closed his eyes and leaned on the sofa indifferently, without bidding again.

Mr. Disco was still on stage, trying to take advantage of the conflict between the two to raise the price, but anyone with a discerning eye could see that Roz Alexander was ready to admit defeat.

The price of 500 million is simply too high.

Ross Alexander is not the complete controller of the Alexander Chamber of Commerce, he is just a white glove that makes money for the Tianlong people.

If the price goes up, he will use the Tianlong people's money.

That's asking for death!

Taking such a big risk for a mermaid slave was simply not worth it for Ross Alexander.

At this point, he still thinks quite clearly.

Realizing this, no matter how much external people criticized him, Ross Alexander looked indifferent.

Seeing that the fire was useless, Mr. Disco finally gave up his plan sadly and held the auction table, slowly bringing the auction war to an end.

"One hundred and fifty-five million times..."

"One hundred and fifty million beli."

Just when everyone thought the auction war was about to end, Li Ming saw that the dust had settled and finally raised his hand for the first time in the entire auction.

"What are you doing getting involved in this?"

Hearing Li Ming's voice beside him, Ross Alexander opened his eyes and looked at Li Ming with confusion.

"I'm also very interested in the mermaid tribe."

"Even if you are interested, the price of 6000 million is already too high and not worth it at all!"

"Look what you said, price is nothing more than a question of whether it's worth it."

"I thought it was worth it, so I made the bid. Is there any question of whether the price is inflated or not?"

Ross Alexander took a deep breath and did not persuade Li Ming to give up.

In his eyes, Li Ming made a bid after he chose to give up, forcing him to overpower the "bumpkin", obviously trying to help him out.

The two people sit next to each other. In the eyes of many people, Li Ming and himself are two people in the "gang".

In order to help him vent his anger, Li Ming was actually willing to spend 6000 million beli. Even as a slave trader, he couldn't help but be a little touched.

"You brat, do you want to help him?"

Not only in the eyes of Ross Alexander, but also in the eyes of everyone, the reason why Li Ming made the bid was just to help Ross, who was traveling with him.

"What are you trying to do? This is an auction house. Don't you want people to bid for things?"

Li Ming looked at the king innocently, with some disdain between his eyebrows.

As Rhodes Alexander said, for the king of a small and remote country to spend more than 5000 million beli to buy such a slave with no practical use is definitely using all the national power of the entire country.

Li Ming doesn't even bother to follow the most basic etiquette for this kind of king.

"This auction is really turbulent, one wave after another!"

"Just when we thought this auction war was about to come to an end, this unknown young man suddenly appeared and suppressed the leader of a country with just a few words."

"Now, we have to take a look, will the King choose to give up?"

"I'll add another 300 million Baileys!"

"Oh! Our King is not to be outdone, 300 million shellfish..."

"Two hundred million."

Before Mr. Disco finished speaking, Li Ming raised his hand impatiently and made a bid as if nothing had happened.

To be honest, Mr. Disco's level of firepower is really low, and these words made him extremely irritated.

Therefore, he was ready to kill the auction directly.

As soon as the price of [-] million Baileys was announced, the whole audience was in an uproar.

Mr. Disco on the auction stage was also shocked and speechless by Li Ming's bid. After being silent for a long time, he asked in disbelief:

"Um, how much did you bid just now? Can you say it again?"

"Two hundred million beli, do you need me to repeat it?"

The whole place fell into silence for a moment.

"Are you crazy?!"

Ross Alexander looked in disbelief. For [-] million Baileys, even a warship can be bought brand new, and it is the kind that is fully equipped with cannonballs!

Using so much money to make people angry, what else could Li Ming be if he wasn't crazy?

"It doesn't matter. Dawn Chamber of Commerce is my private chamber of commerce and has sufficient liquidity. It's only [-] million beli, which is not a large amount."

Li Ming waved his hand indifferently.

He was right. Grain trading was about digging food from the soil. With systematic assistance, Li Ming didn't need to worry about harvest problems at all. He also had plenty of sales channels.

The only problem is the time it takes for the crops to mature.

With the existence of a system, the crops of Liming Chamber of Commerce can even mature five times a year, and some with short growth cycles can even mature six times!

In the pirate world, although there is not much land, the population of the pirate world is also relatively small, so the land price is not expensive.

With land, employment of people, modern technical guidance, and systematic assistance, every time the crops mature, the entire grain market will experience a small-scale earthquake.

With such a huge capital flow, spending [-] million Baileys is not a big deal.

You know, Li Ming brought [-] million beli in cash alone for this trip to Marijoa.

enough.

"Who is this kid?"

Facing Li Ming's indifferent bid, as if [-] million Baileys was not worth mentioning in his eyes, everyone in the audience was talking about it.

"Is this that big shot who came out of nowhere again? Why haven't I seen him before?"

"Could it be that those who are following Roz Alexander came from Malijoari?"

"Malijoari's family? No wonder they can spend so much money!"

In Marijoa, in addition to the Tianlong family, there are also other families who often live there.

For example, Spangdam's family is one of them.

Everyone in the audience speculated on Li Ming's identity, but the results were mixed and there was no accurate information.

The king was momentarily stunned by Li Ming's price. He was in a daze for a long time. He hesitated and wanted to raise his hand to bid, but his remaining reason kept forcing him to put his hand down.

He can't afford a higher price!

In his country, there are only about 5000 citizens in the entire country, and he has already sunk the ship with [-] million beli.

If he wanted to pay again, he would have no choice but to sell the country.

"Where did you come from? Two hundred million beli, you are not afraid of the wind blowing your tongue!"

"Then I won't bother you, old man, to think about it. I can still afford the pocket money of [-] million beli."

The king wanted to curse back, but he had already lost in this auction bidding war.

"Don't let me see you again!"

The king thought for a long time and wanted to make a desperate struggle, such as questioning Li Ming's ability to pay at the auction house, or using force to suppress others.

But no matter what the idea was, he was ultimately rejected.

Being able to enter this auction house is a status symbol in itself, and there is no such thing as being unable to pay after the auction.
