Dulan's suggestions are actually correct. Whether it is occupying Ghost Eye Island or becoming a moneylender, it can be developed. The empress chose the moneylender among the two and felt that this option was not bad.
In fact, it is easy for lenders to become spokespersons of capital and a thorn in the side of the navy. These are all things for later. The empress will now mobilize funds from Daughter Island to establish a lending system.
Luffy and others worked hard, and it took them two and a half years to earn enough money without eating or drinking, which was very painful for them. They were eager to set sail again, and did not think about whether to use the two and a half years for training.
Improve your own strength.
Luffy has always made up for the shortcomings of the team by looking for companions, rather than learning to make up for the shortcomings by himself. For example, he can learn cooking and make a guest appearance when there is no chef, he can learn music, and he can also make a guest appearance while being a captain.
musician……
Luffy has never thought about learning more content. He only wants to find partners with corresponding skills, and he believes that he can find them 100%. After all, the sea is so big and there are so many talents. There must be a lot of moral freedom.
Talents.
What is this? This is feudalism, this is the etiquette system. The king, the king, the minister, the father, the son, the son. Everyone is fixed at the position of the altar and will not change easily.
Therefore, as the captain, Luffy should not do things like a cook, nor should he sing, dance, and rap. Professional things need to be done by corresponding characters.
So Luffy didn't feel that he had anything to improve. He was the captain and led everyone forward. All other things should be completed by the corresponding crew members. This was the division of labor.
Obviously stopping is an opportunity to improve himself, but Luffy doesn't want to stay for a minute. But what should he do if he has no money to repair the ship? Is there any way to get a lot of money without working?
Yes, borrow money.
But collateral is required and interest must be paid.
In addition to borrowing money, there is another way to rent a boat.
"What is this?" Tom knew that Duran was a master of science and technology, more powerful than him, and always came up with things he couldn't understand.
"This is the ship spirit." Dulan held a huge ball of light in his hand: "To be precise, it is the mother body of the ship spirit, which can give birth to more ship spirits. We install the ship spirit into the rental boat, and the ship spirit can record
The chartering company can then make a commission from the fleet's income. At the same time, if the crew encounters a strong enemy, the ship spirit can control the ship and return it to the rental house to ensure the safety of the ship. To put it simply, it is the monitoring of the rental ship. "
"..." Tom only felt that Duran always had fantastic ideas: "The somersault cloud is amazing enough, but I didn't expect that you can even mass-produce the ship elves, and you have even thought of the use of the ship elves. I'm not as good as you
.”
Only technology puts Tom to shame. Using the Ship Wizard to control the rental boat is indeed a very effective way to obtain information about the rental boat and obtain rent.
"Depending on the rental price, the ship's armor and weapons will be different, and its combat effectiveness will be different. Even young people with no money can rent a small boat to go to sea and make money by hunting sea kings and pirates.
The rent can be paid. The ship elf can collect money directly." Duran said: "And we can further enhance the automation of the ship and let the ship elf take on more responsibilities, such as serving as a navigator, a gunner, and a helmsman..."
"Is this automation?" Tom said: "If so, doesn't the ship only need a captain?"
"Yes, the ultimate goal is to control a Pluto battleship armed to the teeth by one person." Duran said, in fact, it can be done now, but step by step, there is no need to be too radical.
"One person can go to sea. The real era of the sea will come, and more people will go to sea. This is even more powerful than the somersault cloud. Although the somersault cloud is easy to use, the problem is that it has too few functions and can only fly here and there.
It lacks economic benefits. But it’s different if one person controls the ship. It can transport cargo, fight, and explore. In short, it has many functions and can do many things."
"Yes, and ship elves can also be cultivated and upgraded." Duran said: "It depends on you, the expert, to provide new ideas for ship design."
Tom was very moved and thought Duran was a good person.
If you have no money, you can rent a boat first and make money to pay the rent while taking risks. This will also give more young people who have dreams but no money an opportunity to go out on adventures.
"As more young people go to sea, Luffy will also meet challengers, who are younger and more talented." Dulan said that as a challenger, Luffy can defeat him through attribute restraint, fruit development, hard training, and on-site printing of cards.
If he has become a senior himself, many young people will challenge him.
An excellent challenger does not mean an excellent defender. Duran's behavior is to intensify the involution and allow more young people to join the game of sea hegemony, and Luffy will face many challenges.
There are many young people who have the same ideals and execution ability as Luffy. Luffy might just capsize in the gutter.
After the high-speed sea currents and somersault clouds, the automatic driving of the Ship Elf also began to develop.
Of course, supporting weapons and equipment are already being developed. There are many weapons developed on the Machine Island. In addition to traditional cannons, there are also missiles, electromagnetic guns, laser cannons, and even sonic cannons, freezing rays and other unknown weapons.
, these weapons would be cool to install on a ship.
"Luffy, look, this is the content of the new issue of the magazine. We can go to sea." Nami said happily to everyone.
Everyone was very surprised. They didn't know what good news there was that made Nami dance so happily.
"Is it "Mechanical Magazine"?" Sauron asked.
"That's right, that's it. There's news on it." After Nami came to Mechanical Island, she learned about "Mechanical Magazine". There was a weekly issue with a lot of news and technology introductions, and it became a medium for them to understand Mechanical Island.
"Look here, Nine Snake Bank has been established to provide loans with only small mortgages. Look, we can go overseas."
"You mean a loan?" Everyone understood, isn't it just borrowing money?
"Yes, we only need to borrow money to repair the capsized ship, and then we can go to sea. Of course, the price is that we need to pay the principal and interest. But as long as we return to the sea, we will definitely find more ways to make money, such as finding
Treasure." Nami said: "Maybe we can also do some small business and buy and sell."
Luffy no longer wants to stay any longer. As long as he can go to sea, he will borrow money: "Let's go borrow money."
Chopper said: "Everyone, please calm down, it's not that simple."
"Chopper, you can't stop him. Don't you know? Luffy always has his own way." Usopp said, "And I also think that the Golden Merry should be repaired as soon as possible, otherwise the ship elves will be too pitiful.
Got it." This time he and Luffy had the same idea, they should borrow money.
The Nine Snake Bank was opened by the Empress. It allows you to save money and borrow money. It can be regarded as a one-stop solution. The support of Mechanical Island is indispensable behind it. The Empress not only allows islanders to work on Mechanical Island, but also opens a bank. The future development is completely
Can look forward to it.
With the support of Mechanical Island, many people come to Kuji Bank to open accounts and save money. At the same time, many young people with dreams like Luffy come to borrow money to start a business.
Luffy feels that the bank is really convenient. He has a dream and the bank has the funds. Isn't this a perfect match?
But why should the bank pay for Luffy's dream? Impossible. The bank wants to see whether Luffy can repay the money and pay interest, so Luffy needs to give detailed information about his family situation. After knowing that Luffy's grandfather is Iron Fist Garp
, no guarantor or collateral is needed, just give Luffy a loan directly.
Anyway, if Luffy doesn't pay back the money, they go to Iron Fist Garp.
So Luffy got a loan and was finally able to repair the ship. In addition to repairing the ship, they also wanted to upgrade the Golden Mellie. When they came to Machinery Island, their understanding of ships was also profoundly improved. They also learned about the ship elves.
There are endless possibilities, so this time their ship must be able to take on more adventurous tasks.
