MTL - Marvel Plane Trader-Chapter 304 Bermuda
Chapter 304 Bermuda
"Do you want to hire a Naga army? Or a permanent one?" Hearing Josie's request, the little Abidis on the opposite side looked very shocked.
"That's right, didn't you establish contact with a Naga tribe?" Josie nodded and said.
"No...boss, it is true that I have established a trade relationship with a Naga, but it is only a trade relationship, and it is the other party who holds the initiative. Your request to permanently hire Naga troops is beyond the scope Ah!" Faced with Josie's request, little Abby Diston suddenly showed a face of embarrassment.
Over the years, after Josie's "education", the continuous expansion of his own power, especially the constant wars in maritime trade, has already made Abidis a qualified businessman and leader, and he often Bargaining among them.
But this time, he really wasn't pretending to be embarrassed.
Because it's really hard.
Different from other racial forces in Azeroth who basically only dominate one side, the Naga race has truly ruled the entire ocean in the past ten thousand years, and its power can be said to be extremely terrifying.
And because of its long-term invasion of coastal areas, almost all kingdoms or races are hostile.
Basically, only a few forces such as pirates who need to be active on the ocean all year round will have a little contact with Naga, and basically they will not make it public.
Abbendis's privateer fleet also spent a lot of money in the course of its activities to secretly establish a connection with a Naga group, so that in the future, its own fleet will not recruit these terrible oceans. biological attack.
For this reason, Abides has to provide each other with a large number of special products of the human kingdom every year.
And now, Josie actually wants him to provide a large number of Naga? What are you kidding?
And to put it bluntly, it is permanent employment, but in fact, it is not necessary to directly buy and sell a batch?
How could Naga sell her own people as goods?
Actually, if Josie only needs one or two, Abides is not impossible to get them. Although there are few slaves of the Naga race on the black market, it is not impossible.
But obviously, what Josie needs is not just one or two, but a whole group.
This doesn’t mean that Abidis can do it, even if he can do it, if a little bit of information is revealed, then his privateer fleet will never even think about going to sea again.
"Of course I know that this matter is very troublesome, but you don't necessarily need to do it yourself, do you? You can offer a reward! Naga is very powerful, but there are also many hostile forces, such as sea giants, tuskarmen, lobstermen, Water elementals and most of the land creatures, I believe, collecting a batch of Naga is still very fast... By the way, you can offer rewards to the Naga for these types of ocean races I mentioned, and I will always come." Joe Xi smiled and took out the methods that Europeans used to do in Africa and America back then.
In fact, this kind of method will be used in the hands of the alliance of Azeroth in the future. For example, the more typical one is the policy of Desolace against centaurs in the 1960s...
It's just that even though Abidis has quite a lot of experience in these years, he is still a little shocked by Josie's plan.
This strategy is so **** poisonous and so wonderful!
Why didn't he think of it?
It’s not just Naga, as long as it’s those forces that don’t deal with him, he can do it!
Of course, this matter is still hated, so he can't directly do it.
"It's a very good method, but in this case, I need a lot of manpower, and the pressure on funds will be great!" Abedis said.
"Don't worry about these, I will provide you with a group of absolutely reliable people, let them operate as middlemen, and will never contact you, as for funds, it is not a problem, I will provide you with enough Gold!" Josie said proudly.
Although gold still has great value in universe trade, after all, Josie has connected so many universes. The gold he holds now is not afraid of being useless at all.
And he is not afraid of the Abydis lion opening his mouth at all.
Because this kid is very shrewd, even if he takes the opportunity to make a lot of money from Josie, he will grasp the scale well.
Otherwise, don’t say that the deal with Josie will be slaughtered in the future. The excessive inflow of gold may also lead to the collapse of the gold price in the world of Azeroth.
After all, the population of each race in Azeroth is limited, and not every race circulates gold.
If there is an excessive influx of gold, the collapse of gold prices will only happen in minutes.
Abbedis, who has learned modern financial knowledge from Josie, knows that once this happens, he will only suffer.
So in the past transactions, he actually paid great attention to controlling the amount of precious metals he obtained from Josie, and more of them were food, meat and other materials.
Because of the perennial wars among the major races in Azeroth, food production has not been very high, let alone animal husbandry—it is true that there are many wild animals in Azeroth, but those ferocious beasts, professionals can deal with them It's very troublesome, let alone civilians?
It is precisely because of this reason that the large amount of dinosaur meat that Josie stockpiled back then has basically been consumed by Abides. His privateer fleet has a very large demand for meat.
Not to mention vegetables, fruits and drinks.
Every year, Josie helps Abidis purchase a large amount of related materials from other planes. Although Josie can also purchase these materials from his own world, it is easy to cause the price to skyrocket. After all, the war has not passed that long , except for the United States, most regions are still in a period of relatively tight supplies.
And it is precisely because Abbendis can provide sufficient material support for his privateer fleet, the loyalty of the captains of his privateer fleet is also particularly high.
In the Middle Ages of Azeroth, what most people wanted was to let themselves and their families eat well and live well?
"Then there is no problem, but in this case, the cycle may be very long!" Abedis nodded.
"It's okay, I can wait!" Josie said.
Although he has a great need for Zhenjin, he didn't say that it was so urgent that he had to ask for it now.
Anyway, Taloken and the seabed vibration gold mine are on the bottom of the Bermuda area and can't run away!
After explaining to Abides, Josie contacted Yuri again, wanting to buy a large number of dolphins and giant squid.
However, due to the environmental problems of the earth where Yuri lives, there is not much corresponding inventory. The huge navy owned by the Allied forces was basically disposed of. After all, Yuri has also begun interstellar colonization now. Too much is useless, and maintenance is a waste of manpower and material resources, and it is impossible to transport it to other planets by spaceship.
Not to mention dolphins and squids, these things are living things, and their health, longevity, and feeding are all big problems.
So Yuri didn't talk nonsense, and directly gave the technology of the two to Josie for free, and let him cultivate it himself.
Obviously, Josie couldn't do this by himself, so he turned around and threw the cultivation technology of these two biological weapons to the Austrian military, and then said his request.
The Austrian military is naturally ecstatic about this.
The navy has always been Austria's weak point, even with the assistance of the United States, it owned a few large warships and secretly launched several strategic nuclear submarines.
But still can't get rid of the fact that there is no truly powerful ocean-going fleet.
And dolphins and giant squid are obviously good things for two kinds of navy to overtake in corners.
After solving the problem of armaments against Taloken, Josie, who had been "busy" for a whole year after returning to Earth, was free again.
But at this time, it is time for the beacon of the new plane to be produced.
It's just that Josie's luck this year is average, and the plane that appeared after the generation of the plane beacon is another plane that doesn't help him much.
Godzilla... is not the orthodox version of Godzilla, but the American version of the Mutant Lizard in 1998, the one starring Jean Reno.
The owner of the beacon is also Jean Reno... Oh, no, it is the French soldier Philippe Roche played by Jean Reno!
That is, France is not a plane, otherwise Josie will definitely find a way to change the owner of the beacon.
But... maybe it would be nice to have a large mutant lizard as a pet?
……………
one year later!
"Beep!!" Accompanied by the roar of a siren, a huge ship with the Spanish flag was driving on the sea in the Bermuda area.
This is actually a very common sight in Bermuda waters.
Although there are many legends, Bermuda has all kinds of mysterious legends, and there is a feeling that strangers should not get close.
But legends are just legends after all.
There are indeed quite a few ships and planes that have disappeared or had accidents in this sea area, but that is only because this area is one of the busiest routes in the world.
There are many ships and planes coming and going.
There are naturally more accidents.
But in fact, according to the overall loss ratio of ships and aircraft around the world, Bermuda's ratio is actually not high at all.
And most of the accidents, as well as various mysterious rumors, mostly appeared in the early 17th-19th centuries.
And this period was the most intense period of the American colonial war, and the privateer fleets of various countries were rampant.
In this case, a large number of ships are missing, isn't that a normal thing?
In contrast, in the middle and late 20th century, with the advent of the peaceful era, there were fewer and fewer disappearances in this sea area.
Many incidents that were rumored to be mysterious, such as the 914 flight crossing incident, were finally confirmed to be just rumors—this kind of lie is easy to expose, as long as the corresponding crashed flight is investigated.
It's just that before the 21st century, world communication was not very developed, and it was easy to fabricate all kinds of rumors.
For example, in her previous life, Josie got a score in Einstein's math test and was deceived for more than ten years by the story of inspirational hard work.
But actually? In the German educational system, one point represents excellence, the highest score...
However, in the Marvel world where Josie is now, the disappearances in Bermuda, after he asked people to sort them out in detail, he found that a small part was indeed very unusual.
But it is only a small part.
And now, he is going to completely reveal the secret.
That's right, this huge ship with the Spanish flag actually belongs to Josie.
After a year of preparations, Josie is now basically ready to explore Taloken and seize the Vibrating Gold Mine on the seabed.
Just because the movement of this operation is definitely not small, Josie did not act under the banner of Austria.
Although all countries in the world have to accept this reality because of the strong rise of Austria, in many ways, they are still very defensive against Austria.
Even NATO and the Warsaw Treaty, which have not been established for a few years, have reached a certain agreement tacitly. In terms of many materials, they have begun to restrict Austria.
If it weren't for Josie's backing, Austria would be subject to various restrictions like the future Eastern powers, or even worse.
Because Austria's geographical location is generally quite awkward, and it has just been caught in the middle of the two major forces.
If it weren't for Germany in the north and the Arctic region, the confrontation between the two camps still exists, and Austria's situation will be even worse.
It is precisely because of this situation that even though Josie has an extremely large industry in the United States, the US government has not suppressed or restricted Josie's industry.
Even in terms of many weapons and equipment, the United States and Austria still have some trade cooperation.
But the Josie family has basically never returned to the United States in the past year.
Of course, this is not what Josie is afraid of.
After all, with his current strength, there is basically nothing on earth that can threaten his existence, even if all the US military is dispatched.
The reason why I didn't go back for a short time was just to avoid embarrassment.
"Sir, we have reached the predetermined sea area, and there are no forces that may interfere around us!" A gentle middle-aged male voice sounded in the cabin, but it was the artificial intelligence Pangu who notified Josie that he had arrived at his destination.
Josie who heard the words put down the scroll in her hand, walked out of the cabin, and came to the deck amidst the greetings from the crew along the way.
On the deck, the main persons in charge of this operation have gathered here, waiting for Josie to give an order.
And the people in charge of this operation are extremely complicated.
There are human beings, and the representative is none other than Josie's confidant Vito.
There is Naga, represented by a tide caller named Mrs. Naraxas, who is also the strongest among the Naga obtained by Abbendis in this operation and in the past year.
In addition, there are lobstermen, sea giants, and tuskarmen.
These are all prisoners of war that Abides "bought" according to Josie's account.
And the 10,000-ton giant ship below him contained a large number of soldiers of these ocean races.
These soldiers have all been brainwashed by Yuri and controlled by the magic of the elf mages.
Loyalty is over the top!
There is even a Godzilla in Josie's system space!
