18. Rainstorm
Polkaia, Wild Cave Town.
Harvey stared at the wine bottle for a long time, and the liquid in the bottle had bottomed out, but he still had an endless aftertaste of the taste just now, as if he had never drank such a special wine.
After a while, he shook his head to dispel the dizziness in his head, and then his eyes turned to the pile of treasures, scattered jewelry and gold on the ground. According to the estimated value, there are more than 20 million Baileys. Generous, and paid more than 20 million Bailey as a deposit for only one meeting.
Thinking of this, Harvey admired the young man's decision-making ability even more.
However, although he is greedy for money, treasure is by no means the first choice. After a period of negotiation, both sides made concessions. Borkin wanted the help of 3,000 refugees from Harvey and dozens of good players. Harvey can provide at any time, and what Harvey wants is not only treasure, but also Wild Cave Town, and his future standing capital.
This point, apart from the plan that Polkin said, there is no hope of realizing it, so Harvey is also taking a gamble.
The refugees in Wild Cave Town have long been precarious, and their lives are the least valuable thing here.
But after Polkin told him the plan, Harvey had other thoughts in mind. These refugees are a ferocious crowd. Once they are fanned, it is a terrifying fighting force. Fortunately, he is under his control. With this group of refugees, he has confidence.
"Boss." A young man came from outside the door with a pair of triangular eyes and a particularly vicious face.
Harvey didn't speak, he found a place to sit down and wait quietly.
"Lucan, get the brothers ready, we are going to fight." After a long time, Harvey finally said, so he took half of the treasure and gave it to the other party: "I exchanged these for the money and divided it into two Half, the brothers take half, and the other half is given to the refugees."
"Boss, where did so much treasure come from?" He was a little surprised. He had never seen so much treasure in Yedong Town for so many years, let alone half of his brothers.
"Those two young people?" He suddenly remembered that the two young people who came to Ye Cave Town were carrying this kind of package.
Harvey nodded. "It's a big deal, it's just a deposit."
Having said this, Harvey's subordinates were more motivated, so they walked out excitedly holding the treasure.
Harvey went back and forth over every word Polkin said, every word of his plan. He was skeptical that Polkin's promises could be fulfilled, not because the plan would fail, but because Polkin could not deliver on his promises after the fact.
However, he also took a step by step. Once the situation changed, he would retreat immediately. It was only a refugee. For Polkadot, he only needed to keep his basic power.
That night, the rainstorm fell again, Polkaia was shrouded in a layer of fog that could not be seen clearly, the lights in the royal city were on, and the residents in the royal city saw the morning report through the newspaper, and the nobles responded quickly. Immediately put Sisi under control.
After interrogation, Sisi asked three questions, and the person in charge of the printing factory suddenly disappeared. After all, Sisi worked for the nobles all the year round. There was no evidence that Sisi would betray the nobles. Xi's personal freedom cannot leave the royal city.
"Sir, do you want me to go and put people in jail?" In the palace, a soldier whispered to the nobleman in luxurious clothes.
No one knows the identity of the nobility in Polkaya. Capee Ketok, the Minister of Affairs of the current kingdom, also serves as the Minister of Military Defense of the Kingdom, and is also the younger brother of the current King Marlie I. Since Marlie was old and seriously ill, Polkaya The institution of power was controlled by Ketok.
At 53 years old, he is in the best part of his career.
Ketok did not speak, but another warrior beside him shook his head: "It has happened unexpectedly,
It doesn't make sense for him to lead or he is coerced to lead, just find someone to monitor it every day. "
"Don't be extravagant at this time, the king won't be able to support it for long." Kotok finally said, with the majesty of a superior in his eyes, just the temperament in his demeanor is enough to make people see that he is an ambitious man. guy.
"By the way, the prince's side has to be monitored day and night, and if there is any movement on No. 1, you have to report it to me." Ketok continued.
The subordinate nodded and whispered in his ear: "How should the Lehrman family collect the heavenly gold on the south coast?"
What the soldiers are referring to is one of the contents reported in the newspapers. The soldiers take this matter very seriously, because every year there is a lot of riots caused by the collection of heavenly gold. Civilians, refugees, and soldiers of the kingdom will all shed blood.
Ketok was silent for a while before asking the warrior next to him, "Shavin, what do you think?"
Chauvin replied, "I suggest letting old Lehrman handle it himself. The untouchables on the south coast may have been at ease for too long."
"Will it affect your future plans?" The soldier nodded without any objection when he heard the words of the samurai, and expressed his worries. As one of Ketok's cronies, he is absolutely excellent, and any uncertain factors he will be considered and brought up face to face. This is one of the reasons why Ketok trusts him so much.
"A group of untouchable slaves can't make a big wave." Ketok sneered, and the soldiers retreated first.
After a while, Ketok picked up the World Economic News next to him and said, "Shavin, is there any way to cooperate with him? Our plan needs to have a powerful master in charge."
"Tianyasha - Brother Doflamingo?" The samurai was slightly stunned. The Don Quixote Pirates in the North Sea were terrifying, and they were Tianlong people. They had just joined the world government and became the king of the Qiwuhai.
"My lord, it's basically impossible." Chauvin shook his head, "Brother Doflamingo would not be interested in a small country in the North Sea."
"No, I don't mean to let him shoot, but I hope he can provide me with a powerful master to sit in and help me become the real king of this country." Ketok thought about it, or put his thoughts in his heart. tell him.
Chauvin was silent for a while: "Sir, I will try my best to contact members of the Doflamingo family, but if you want to help the other party, you must first come up with something that interests the other party."
"Does the devil fruit work?" Ketok laughed, and Chauvin was slightly shocked: "Yes."
As the highest-ranking noble in Polkaia and a minister of the kingdom, Ketok can naturally get the devil fruit. Not only that, he also prepared a special tribute to the Tianlong people in order to become the king, in order to become the Holy Land Mary every four years. One of the monarchs who called the World Council.
On the other side of the royal city, in Lehrman's mansion, a soldier hurried across the corridor and came to the main hall to report: "Lord Lehrman, the young master has found it."
Lehrman immediately got up and ran towards the hall.
The torrential rain washed away the grimness of the night, and there was a roar over Polkaia, like the rushing torrent of the times.
At dawn, Blatter and Röntgen sat quietly in the house. The lights in the house were weak, there was a slight cold wind coming from the door, and the rain curtain on the window sill was blurred.
Drinking a glass of wine at dawn, when I stood up, I felt that the world was tilted.
"Big brother." Roentgen walked over and supported him, shaking his head at dawn, indicating that he was fine.
He walked to the window and watched for a while, then turned his head and said in the calmest voice: "Tomorrow is the dividing line of our destiny."
"Life or death is at least under our own control." Blatter took a glass of wine and drank it, smiling proudly. In the past few years, under the influence of Dawn's eyes and ears, Blatter has also become free and easy.
Roentgen also smiled: "Of course."
"A toast to our beautiful tomorrow."
Bang... The three glasses of wine touched each other and made a crisp and pleasant sound. The ticking in the rain curtain was like a fierce horseshoe hitting the ground. In this world that seemed to be divided into half leisurely and half hurried, it completely drowned the three of them. Laughter.
