Farming in Pirate World

"you want me?!"

Black Goat's expression changed and he quickly covered his chest, as if he was about to face something extremely terrifying.

"what are you thinking!"

Li Ming put his foot on the black goat's face, looking disgusted by him.

"You don't need to wear clothes with your black hair, why are you covering your chest?"

The black goat was about to cry without tears. He didn't know what to say, so he had to put down his hand hesitantly.

As a "macho man", he is always shirtless and wears only a pair of shoes except for a pair of big pants.

Normally, his black hair would be enough to hide his shame, but now it makes him extremely insecure.

"You don't even look at your face in the mirror. You only think about beautiful things in your mind."

"I'm the gangster who wants you!"

Li Ming stepped on the black goat's face again, but the force was not too strong. The black goat was not injured except for being humiliated.

Li Ming has no need to be polite to a big bastard like Black Goat.

"You want the Black Goats?"

The black goat was stunned and didn't know where to put his hands.

What does such a big boss want from the Black Goat Gang?

When Li Ming arrived, Black Goat just saw the armed domineering look on his wrist and was completely sure that this was a big boss he couldn't afford to offend.

As for why this big boss would cause trouble for him, he also thought about many possibilities.

The most likely possibility is that his younger brother provoked the big boss, and the big boss came to seek revenge.

This is why he fell to his knees on the spot.

The second possibility is that the boss has been a little short of money recently, so he came to rob him of his wealth.

When Li Ming asked for "Devil Fruit", he thought about this, so he also thought about buying his life with money.

He even thought that this boss had a special taste and wanted to try it on himself.

But he never imagined that a big boss like Li Ming would take a fancy to his "power".

He was able to survive in the Chambord Islands for ten years not because of his strong personal strength, but because of his vision and structure!

Strong personal strength? All the real strong people have gone to the New World. How many real strong people are left in the Chambord Islands?

The Chambord Islands are adjacent to the Navy Headquarters, which means that it is impossible for one person to suppress everything here.

If there is, the Navy Headquarters will definitely send people to suppress it personally.

Therefore, there are many strong men who passed by here on the Grand Route, but none of them really stayed.

In his mind, Li Ming also existed like this.

I passed by here by chance and was annoyed by a blind gangster who then tried to rip me off.

Black Goat has experienced this kind of disaster many times. It was nothing more than kneeling down to beg for mercy and paying for his life. He was very familiar with the process.

When strong men pass by the Chambord Islands, they will bring some changes to the power structure here.

For example, the "Long-Armed Monkey" in District 28 is just a force that has only emerged in the past six months.

As for the gangsters before "Long-Armed Monkey", because they had no scruples and danced too much, they accidentally provoked a passing pirate group and disappeared overnight.

In the eyes of Black Goat, Li Ming is just a passing boss, and he doesn't seem to be murderous. As long as he serves him well, this disaster will be over.

But he never expected that Li Ming would actually take a fancy to his own power!

This little power is nothing. A big guy like you can't be wiped out easily?

Black Goat forced a smile and rubbed his hands randomly, not knowing what to say.

"Boss, are you sure you want the entire gang?"

"What, you don't want to give up?"

"No, it's not!"

Black Goat quickly shook his head, indicating that he had no objection at all.

"As long as you want it, I will call them here and announce that they will follow you!"

With that said, in order to express his wishes, he immediately stood up, preparing to call all the boys outside and announce the change of ownership of the gang on the spot.

Li Ming looked at him suspiciously, seeing that he was really willing to do anything with him and didn't play any tricks with him, so he quickly stopped him.

"No, don't announce it yet."

Li Ming groaned, motioned for him to kneel down first, and looked at him with a puzzled expression:

"You don't have the slightest bit of reluctance if I want your gang?"

"I remember you said that this is your ten years of hard work."

"Look at what you said, how could I not want to do this?"

The black goat knelt on the ground obediently and looked at Li Ming with an apologetic smile.

"It's just... I really don't understand why you would like a small force like us?"

To say he felt distressed, he really felt distressed.

Losing the black goat was like digging out a big piece of fat from his body. Even if he had been in business for ten years, the black goat was still the majority of his property.

The most important thing is that if Black Goat is handed over to others, he will never find such a suitable place to develop his power again.

Area 29 is the outermost part of the lawless land. It is adjacent to the law-abiding area. There are relatively few evil forces and it is relatively stable.

Although there is less oil and water, it is safe here!

"Why do you like you?"

"Nonsense, it's not that I have a crush on you, it's that you have provoked me."

Li Ming chuckled. The cautious and cowardly look of the black goat really made him feel a little funny.

It felt like he had just traveled here.

"However, I have changed my mind now."

"I don't want the black goat anymore, I want you."

"I?"

Black Goat hugged his chest again and looked at Li Ming with a horrified expression.

"I'd better pay my respects to the gang to you."

"What are you thinking about!"

Li Ming smiled and gave him a kick. It would be a pity for this man not to act in the sketch.

"I want you to control this gang."

"You want to accept me as your younger brother?"

The black goat swallowed his throat, and then a look of surprise appeared on his face.

He instantly understood what Li Ming meant.

This boss doesn't want to quit the gang, but wants to directly recruit him as his subordinate, while he hides behind the scenes.

This is a good thing!

"right."

Li Ming nodded, wondering if there was something wrong with this black goat's brain.

How come you are so smart one moment and so stupid the next?

"I want to accept the entire Black Goat, including you, and work exclusively for me from now on."

"Of course, the benefits are indispensable to you."

Originally, in his plan, there was no place for the Black Goat.

After taking over all the manpower and territory of the gang, if it is still managed by the previous boss, it will be too dangerous for Li Ming.

After meeting those two gangsters, Li Ming had a comprehensive understanding of the actual underworld. These people were all desperadoes, and they would stab themselves if they were not careful.

Li Ming was not afraid of being stabbed, but mainly because it was too troublesome to deal with this kind of thing, so he wanted to get it right in one step and just kick the former boss out.

But after contact, Li Ming discovered that this black goat was different.

This man is simply terrifying.

After seeing himself, he just recognized his armed and domineering attitude and knelt down on the ground to beg for mercy. No matter how he humiliated him, he would not get angry.

But for Li Mingla, this is undoubtedly a good thing.

With such cowardice, as long as Li Ming is capable enough, there is no fear that he will choose to betray.

Moreover, where can he find such an obedient subordinate?

For Black Goat, Li Ming's arrival is not only not a bad thing, but a real good thing.

This is a big shot!

With the support of this big boss, I can be considered to have a backer!

From now on, if others want to touch me, they have to think carefully!

Thinking of this, Black Goat suddenly beamed with joy, hurriedly patted his chest to express his loyalty and said:

"Boss, look at what you said, how can I ask for benefits from you?!"

"It will be my lifelong honor to be the boss's little brother!"

The black goat had a dog-legged look on his face and even wanted to hug Li Ming's leg directly.

"Okay, okay, let's talk about business."

Li Ming kicked him away and motioned for him to stand up first so that they could talk about business.

"Remember, from now on, you are still the boss of the Black Goat. I don't care about the situation in the gang. You will continue to be fully responsible. But if anything goes wrong, I will directly settle the score with you."

"Yeah, I understand, you don't need to come forward, I will do everything!"

Black Goat understood. He wanted to be the boss behind the scenes, so he pushed himself to the bright side.

On the surface, nothing has changed in the Black Goat Gang, but only he knows that from now on, the Black Goat Gang has completely changed owners.

Li Ming was also very satisfied with Black Goat's understanding ability, but he also felt that it was inappropriate to only give him a big stick. He thought about it and then said:

"Of course, if you do things well, the benefits will inevitably come to you."

"Whatever you want or need, feel free to ask me."

All the gangsters want is money.

Li Ming doesn't have much else, he just has a lot of money.

However, when he came out this time, Li Ming didn't bring much belongings with him. He left most of Bailey in the hotel, so he had no choice but to write bad checks.

"No, I don't need anything. As long as you are with me, boss, that's enough!"

The black goat looks like a loyal dog.

He didn't lie. After ten years of business operation, he was not short of money, but just insecure.

Li Ming thought he was being polite, but after chatting for a few more words, he found that Black Goat was really not short of money, and he suddenly became a little confused.

"You are not short of money or people, so why are you staying in a place like this?"

After a cursory chat, Li Ming discovered that Black Goat's background was deeper than he imagined.

After ten years of operation, it is much stronger than those emerging forces that have suddenly emerged, or at least it is definitely not a coward.

With the introduction of Black Goat, Li Ming finally understood the whole picture of the Black Goat Gang.

"Our Black Goat Gang is truly the boss of the 29th District. In the entire 29th District, the Black Goat can be said to be the only one."

"There are all kinds of restaurants and bars in the entire 29th District, and there are even two underground casinos. They are all covered by our Black Goat Gang."

"We provide them with protection, and they have to pay us on time."

Li Ming nodded. The Black Goat Gang did not directly operate any stores. Its operating model was nothing more than collecting protection fees.

"Have you never engaged in any contraband or anything like that? For example, "human trafficking" or "flesh and flesh trafficking"?"

Hearing Li Ming's doubts, Black Goat quickly shook his head and explained:

"This kind of contraband business can be fatal if caught!"

The black goat looked cowardly and was afraid of the business Li Ming mentioned.

The leather and meat business is fine. As long as it is run well, there shouldn't be any problems.

But the slave business is something that is banned all over the world, and he doesn't dare to touch it easily.

"Are you still a gangster?"

"Gangsters also want to survive."

The black goat sneered twice, stood up, and motioned for Li Ming to follow him. He wanted to take Li Ming to a place.

"Where to go?"

"Just follow me."

Black Goat gave up and led Li Ming to turn left and right in the building, and finally turned underground at some point.

After walking underground, Li Ming passed three more iron gates and avoided countless traps. Just when Li Ming became impatient, they finally arrived at their final destination.

"What are you doing?"

The black goat opened the last door with a mysterious face, and then revealed everything inside.

"Grass!"

Li Ming swallowed, feeling that his throat was a little dry due to everything in front of him.

"You hid all these?"

Li Ming's face turned a little pale. The shock of what he saw in front of him caught him off guard.

"Lord Li Ming, this is my last trump card. Since I am now under your command, I will give you a clean account!"

Black Goat seized the opportunity and quickly expressed his loyalty in front of Li Ming.

Within Li Ming's field of vision, what he saw was a large number of boxes, and a long-lasting smell of sulfur came to his face, proving to Li Ming what was in these alleys.

gunpowder!

"Are you planning to blow up Area 29?"

"No, with this amount of gunpowder, even the 28th and 30th districts can be blown up together!"

"It's just a precaution and a necessary means to navigate the world."

The black goat scratched his head, a little embarrassed.

"Is this all gunpowder?"

"Yes, most of it is gunpowder, but there are also a small amount of other things."

Hearing this, Black Goat took Li Ming deep into the cellar.

Here, several boxes of guns and ammunition were placed here, arranged neatly. Li Ming roughly counted more than two hundred guns, not to mention bullets.

Arms are contraband, so it's okay to get a few occasionally. So many muskets are enough to form a small army.

You know, Doflamingo made his fortune by buying and selling arms.

"Anymore?"

Although I was a little surprised, after all I have seen so much gunpowder, these muskets are not too much.

"Another point......"

Black Goat took Li Ming and walked a little further. Sixteen cannons were neatly arranged here, and dozens of boxes of cannonballs were placed aside, like soldiers being reviewed.

"Can you do this too?"

"It costs money, this is indeed a bit expensive..."

Black Goat smiled sheepishly. The value of these sixteen cannons was more expensive than the several tons of gunpowder outside.

"Anymore?"

"Another point."

With that said, the Black Goat took Li Ming deeper into the cellar.
