Chapter 392 so incompetent

As a businessman living in the apocalypse, Koma's actions are forever driven by interests. The more Diago's forces and the Aurora Legion fought fiercely, the more he could make a profit. Because of this, he passed the news of George's fleet's departure from Havana to the Aurora Legion.

However, Koma is just a small businessman after all, and he cannot decide the outcome of the battlefield. In fact, he is not the only one who has sent news to the "Aurora Legion". After repeatedly evaluating the comparison of the forces between the two sides of the war, he made a decision - betting on the power of Diago. To be precise, betting on Commander George.

His Excellency George is backed by a powerful organization like "Incree" and also controls the only armed speedboat fleet in the Caribbean. Although the size and tonnage of this fleet are pitifully small, he has no opponent and has completely dominated the ocean!

Kema felt that Mr. George, who controls the ocean, would be the real King of the Caribbean. He needed to flatter and please him at critical moments, "If I can monopolize the trading power of ports and routes, I will definitely make a fortune. This will definitely require a big gift."

Given that Mr. George is about to have a higher status, a box of whiskey is obviously not enough, and Kema needs more luxury goods and luxury daily necessities to impress the other party.

"I need five boxes of whiskey, fifty boxes of rum, and ten dozens of various clothes to change. By the way, do men's perfumes have?" In the foreign commercial market of Matanzas, Kema used the gold he had finally earned to buy all kinds of goods that were cut off in the end of the world. His vastness was astonishing.

The spirits sold on the market are often brewed with local Cuban sugar, but high concentrations of alcohol are a necessity in the apocalypse and a good medicine for anesthetic nerves. Other items often come from the plunder of Florida, and are not affordable to ordinary people.

In normal years, I'm afraid that a lot of these things can be bought with a gold bar, but now the price has increased by more than a hundred times. But the merchants who came to rush to buy in the market are still crazy, sweeping away these products that are likely to be no longer available.

Faced with this sudden buying frenzy, the person in charge of selling goods was very confused and couldn't help but ask Kema: "Sir, it's the end of the world now, and civilization has fallen. Has the market for luxury goods sold has expanded? Shouldn't you buy a large amount of ordinary daily necessities?"

The so-called ordinary daily necessities are old clothes made by Zhou Qingfeng. Due to the cold winter now, tropical residents still have a huge demand for cold-proof clothes. In the past period of time, these old clothes were bought very well.

You should know that Zhou Qingfeng gets 100 tons of old clothes every time, and there are tens of thousands of them. After getting old clothes a few more times, basically everyone in the Aurora Legion has already had a set of thick clothes, and the rest can be sold to the public.

Kema did not answer this question, but sneered in his heart and said: You old clothes are actually worthless and expensive, so we merchants don’t make any profit. You will be defeated by Your Excellency George’s fleet soon, and these clothes will become the spoils of the Diago power. As long as I have a good relationship with Your Excellency George, these clothes can be obtained for free.

Mr. Kema took out all his funds and barely sold a little luxury goods. After all, there were other merchants competing for the supply of goods with him. The merchants who arrived later were crying in the face of the empty shelves. It seemed that the merchants were not optimistic about the "Aurora Legion".

"Mr. Kema, can you give me some luxury goods evenly? I can buy them by 20%." A merchant named Paulino rushed to Kema and asked in a nearly begging voice.

Kema and Paulino are merchants who have made a fortune in their trade with the "Aurora Legion". It is precisely because of various conflicts in the trade that the two are a little tit-for-tat.

Faced with Paulino's plea, Kema refused without hesitation. He even mocked: "Mr. Paulino, who made you a step late? Now you can only buy those ragged clothes. I hope you can still sell them."

Seeing Kema leaving proudly, Paulino beat his feet and stamped his chest, regretting it. He just learned the news, but the result was a little worse. Now all the merchants are optimistic about George from "Incree". This is already a well-known secret.

If Kema was allowed to take advantage of the power of His Excellency George, he could become the largest businessman in the entire Caribbean. Paulino would probably have to buy some old clothes and go to remote places to make a little profit.

Paulino's frustration made Kema very happy. He immediately loaded all the luxury goods he bought and prepared to go to Havana to wait for the victory and triumphant Commander George.

The small steamer left Matanzas and slowly floated on the sea. After running for a long time, he was about to approach Havana, and saw three crooked and broken speedboats floating in front of him.

The sailor on the boat held up his telescope and looked for a long time before running to call Koma: "Boss, I seem to see Mr. George's ship."

"Oh..., Lord George is back from Nassau?" Kema was resting, but immediately got up when she heard this. "Great, I can congratulate him as soon as possible."

"Uh..." The sailor who was rumoring for a long time, but couldn't figure out whether the three broken ships needed to congratulate them.

Mr. Kema had already rushed to the deck, and saw three slow boats vaguely on the water antenna, which were slower than the small steamer. He thought to himself with a little surprise: Is this George's armed speedboat?

In Kema's mind, George's fleet should be riding the wind and waves on the sea, and it is irresistible. But now the speed of a snail is obviously... something is wrong!

"Didn't it mean that there are eight ships set out, why are there only three ships?" Kema took the telescope handed over by his subordinates, put it in front of him and exclaimed, "God, what's wrong with it?"

After watching it several times, Kema finally confirmed that the broken ships floating on the sea were the George Fleet that once raged across the Cuban waters. But now they were obviously beaten up.

How could this be a victory? It was clearly a disastrous defeat!

When the distance approached, Kema even saw someone on three broken ships illuminated with flashlights and sent a 'SOS' signal to ask him for help. A sailor asked: "Boss Kema, are we going to save them? They seemed to say that their ship might sink at any time. This is a good opportunity to get closer to Mr. George."
