Pirate: I partnered with Zefa to build a new navy!

Ortorun was sitting on an office chair drinking tea, while Tezolo was sitting on the sofa opposite and reporting relevant data.

"Currently, the total number of our troops stationed in various countries has reached 40,000. Within our jurisdiction, there are a total of twelve joining and non-joining countries. On average, each country has about 3,000 troops stationed and maintains at least one ship. Three warships and auxiliary miscellaneous warships.”

"The military expenditures for these 5 people are uniformly handed over to our G- by the countries where they are stationed for distribution. Last year, there was a surplus of billion beli..."

When Tezzolo said this, Ortorun raised his hand and asked with a little curiosity: "Is there still a surplus?"

"Yes, basically all countries will give a little more, some will give two to three hundred million more, and some situations that are not good will give tens of millions more." Tezzolo responded with a smile.

"Yes, these guys are very discerning. The payment of this kind of military expenses must have a flexible bottom line, otherwise we can't be too flexible..." Ortorun said with satisfaction.

At first, I just wanted to share the pressure of these armies with these countries. I didn't expect that in the end, I could make a small profit. Although more than two billion beli is not a big amount for the current G-5, but It’s cheap for free, don’t want it for free!

"After two years of conscription, our G-5 base has an active military establishment of people. Among them, troops have experienced the baptism of fire at least three times, and basically all will be Armed color domineering has started, and it can be called an elite. However, our expenditure in this area is also very large, because Lord Ortorun, you have always distributed our military expenditure standards and rewards in the highest order, so this The pressure is relatively high, my suggestion is that we can reduce it appropriately..." Tezzolo was helpless and wanted to put forward his own suggestions.

But before he finished speaking, Ortorun waved his hand to stop him: "There is no need to mention the reduction of wages, benefits and bounties for subordinates. This is a rigid standard. Anyone in G-5, including me in this base, No changes are allowed within the long term!”

After a short pause, Ortorun said helplessly: "Due to the situation and the pressure of the new world, I have been ruthless enough in training soldiers. Most of the soldiers recruited have just learned how to fire. If you shoot a target with a gun, I will send you to the front line. This is already a very cruel thing. Because of this, if my brothers work hard for me, I have to pay them a sufficient price. If I don’t even pay for this kind of hard work, , I have to reduce it. Then if there is a war in the future, who will be willing to take the lead in the charge!? The combat effectiveness of our G-5 will also be reduced because of this, which is not what I want to see!"

Yes, the G-5's casualty rate can be said to be the highest in the navy, especially during the two or three years of Ortolon's military training, when it was necessary to build a powerful naval force with elite troops from scratch. The iron and blood in this can be imagined.

Therefore, from the very beginning, even if he, Ortorun, had to tighten his belt and shamelessly blackmail others, he must maximize the treatment level and reward of G-5, otherwise he would feel sorry for himself conscience.

Those are his subordinates, not Impelton's imported slaves. They can cause trouble as they please!

Therefore, from the perspective of military expenditure level, welfare benefits, post-war bounty and other areas, the welfare of G-5 is at least three times that of the headquarters!

It is also because Ortorun has never skimped on this aspect, and after purging relevant corrupt generals and responsible persons three times, although G-5 is under great pressure, his prestige is unparalleled among the entire G-5. replace!

In Ortolen's view, the accumulation of prestige does not mean how many meetings you hold in a day, or how many targets you set, or how you use power and strength to subdue people below.

The accumulation of prestige depends on what you can bring to your brothers!

Getting promoted and making a fortune is the best way to accumulate prestige. Why does Altorun admire Sengoku, the naval admiral? Because Warring States, as his direct leader, never gave Oltorun a thumbs-up, and gave him money when he should, and promotions when he needed them, without delay at all. Therefore, both parties accumulated enough trust for Oltorun. Willing to contribute to the Warring States Period!

Nowadays, the same principle applies to G-5. In the past two years alone, the number of officers sent back to the headquarters by G-5 has directly exceeded a thousand. Basically, when they came to G-5, they were still new recruits. Two Years later, as long as he goes out to fight and is not dead, he is still a lieutenant at least. He is lucky and can survive many wars. Or he has made some important achievements and has a school-level officer on his body. There are also many epaulettes!

Of course, it is impossible to fully integrate them within the G-5 establishment. Some of them are willing to stay. Ortorun will let them lead the new recruits and serve as the commanders of the new recruits. There are still some who are really helpless, and they will be directly pushed to the headquarters and sent to the headquarters. continue to develop.

After all, the temple here is small and cannot accommodate too many officers.

The officers pushed out are also very meaningful to Ortorun and G-5, because although these people can't see anything now, they will definitely become the new officers of the G-5 Navy in the future. The backbone of the faction, G-5's influence is no longer limited to one base, but radiates throughout the entire naval system!

Seeing that the leader of his base was determined to stand up for his brothers, Tezzolo was helpless, but he also felt warm in his heart. Who doesn't want his boss to think about his own people?

The base commander is willing to bear the financial pressure and compete for welfare benefits for the lowest-level naval soldiers who have the least say, let alone the naval generals who have already reached the leadership level.

Just like the promise Ortoron made to that guy Smog not long ago, G-5 is here, the people he protects, as long as you don't embarrass him Ortoron, the sky will fall. , Ortorun is also willing to help them carry it!

Without this courage, how can you make everyone willing to go all out with you? ?

"Since you insist on that, I won't say any more. However, due to the high allocation of welfare benefits, we are currently under great financial pressure. This year's expenditure on military expenses, bounties, and welfare in the base is already in deficit. Judging from the template operated by the Chamber of Commerce, this project has incurred a total loss of nearly 130 billion beli this year..." Tezzolo said.

"How much!?" Altoron was a little confused after hearing this.

I was happily making a small profit of more than 2 billion just now, but now I have lost hundreds of billions?

"One hundred and thirty billion beli." Tezzolo said in a very calm tone.

Altorun covered his head and asked with some sadness: "I lost six and a half of the King's Shichibukai in a year?"

"Our G-5 navy needs to spend more than troops. Because the standards you gave are high enough, on average, each person's monthly expenditure is nearly beli. Calculated , the normal salary payment alone will cost more than billion beli every month, and nearly billion beri in a year... This is just the regular salary standard, after each war , we will pay a reward, which will be at least more than billion beli in a year. In addition, there are various welfare benefits, such as daily living supplies, food for the army, etc. .. After the settlement, it’s nearly billion beli a year, and our high casualty rate brings high resettlement expenses, pensions, disability subsidies and..." Tezzolo told Austria on the spot. Ertorun calculated.

These strings of expenditure figures made Ortolen's head spin when he heard them, but when he thought about it carefully, they were reasonable.

"Therefore, the deficit of 130 billion beli is not a big number. If we maintain the level of last year, we will lose at least this amount every year in the future." Tezzolo said with a smile.

"You can still laugh at this!?" Ortorun glared at Tezzolo with indignant eyes.

"Sir Ortorun, you don't need to be so anxious. According to the calculation of this year's fiscal revenue, as long as we maintain the current three-month regular level this year, we can fully afford these expenditures next year and still maintain a surplus..." Tezzolo said in relief.

Oltorun breathed a sigh of relief, and then asked: "The rest of the business has made progress, right?"

"Yes, the first batch of goods from the North Sea is very popular in Totland Wanguo. It is almost sold out as soon as it enters the port. With the current freight volume alone, we can maintain nearly 7 billion Baileys every month. The net income, after one year, will be nearly 100 billion Baileys in net profit, and it is obvious that now, it is only the initial stage. Once our navigation is completely familiar, once we can cross the windless zone, the number of armed transport ships will If it is effectively improved, our income in this area will reach a terrifying scale, and it is possible to earn a surplus of one trillion Baileys per year..." Tezzolo said with great anticipation.

This cross-sea smuggling business with stable sales and safe routes is indeed a huge profit among huge profits!

"A trillion dollars a year!" Ortorun suddenly stood up from his seat, stretched out his hands on the table and said: "Then I, Ortorun, with half a million troops, is not an unattainable dream. !”

Of course, if we consider the shackles of the headquarters, it seems that making trillions a year is still useless... But this is just the beginning. Apart from this business, Altorun has huge reasons. Pelton's imported pirates are waiting to create value and join a just cause!
