One Piece: My Spirit
Chapter 67: Chapter 67 The Kingdom of Corn
Shire only knew that the 'naval hero' Garp was about to return to the East China Sea, but he didn't have much contact with Garp, so he didn't put too much energy on it after learning about it from Smoker.
However, in the past half a year or so, something happened that caught the attention of many people in the world, that is, the world government invited a certain pirate to be the "Qiwuhai" and was rejected!
And this certain pirate is Ace, who had a relationship with Shire in Rogue Town. Just a month ago, the news of "World Classics" reported about Ace, a young pirate who has suddenly emerged!
As soon as Ace, who owns the burning fruit of the natural system, enters the "melting pot" of the Great Channel, he immediately shines. In the "Paradise" in the first half of the Great Channel, when most people don't know how to use "Domineering", Devil Fruit has almost become synonymous with "powerful"!
As one of the best, the natural department is considered "invincible" by everyone, so Ace was soon nicknamed "Fire Fist", which of course is derived from his iconic "Fire Fist".
Therefore, the world government seems to have a headache for Ace, so they decided to invite Ace to be the "Seven Wukai", but what everyone didn't expect was that Ace refused, so this matter was also disclosed and reported by the "World Classics" and became a hot topic of discussion recently. It can be said that Ace is indeed already a little famous now.
In the East China Sea, somewhere in the sea, there is a place known as the Kingdom of Corn. This is a country with a land area of more than 80 square kilometers, and the population of the entire country is about 10 or so.
From the name of the country, it seems that this is a country that is mainly rich in corn, and this is indeed the case. The entire Corn Kingdom is an agricultural country dominated by agriculture, and the export of corn and other agricultural products is the characteristic of this country.
Most people make a living by planting agricultural products, but almost all land ownership is held by middle and high-level nobles. Most people spend their entire lives working for these "farmer" nobles who own a lot of land. Similar to most countries in the world, the Corn Kingdom is also a country with solidified classes and a huge gap between rich and poor.
Although it is a country dominated by agriculture, the upper-class nobles are extravagant and extravagant, but even many people at the bottom cannot eat enough to fill their stomachs!
With the continuous exploitation of the upper-class nobles in recent years, the people at the bottom of the country have already suffered untold hardships. In addition, agriculture itself has poor anti-risk capabilities. Bad weather or other factors will cause a series of chain reactions, and the final risks will be grafted to the people at the bottom.
An important source of finance for the Corn Kingdom is the export of its own agricultural products, because the exploited domestically cannot be self-sufficiently digested, and more agricultural products can be exported to gain more wealth.
However, after the advent of the great pirate era, the exporting merchant ships were repeatedly hijacked, or the exported products were imposed outrageous tariffs by other countries, or vicious competition of other products.
As a result, a large number of agricultural products have been backlogged and then broken. In recent years, the wealth of the kings and nobles of the Corn Kingdom has also been shrinking. What should I do if the quality of life declines?Then squeeze it again from the people at the bottom, the most direct and simple way is to increase taxes and heavy taxes!
All kinds of exorbitant taxes, which almost squeezed out the wealth of the entire country!
But this situation has changed a lot in this country because of the arrival of a certain ship. In just a few months, the king and nobles found that their wealth has increased instead of falling!
"Mr. Habu, all the goods have been delivered here. Your lord Earl told me to treat you well and thank you. Otherwise, if the things grown by these untouchables are unsalable here, the loss will be too great. Fortunately, you can help buy them."
A middle-aged man in a gorgeous black housekeeper's uniform respectfully respected a young man wearing glasses and holding a notebook in his hand.
Not far from the two were four or five medium-sized merchant ships, surrounded by many men in old clothes who were constantly carrying batches of goods. Among them, children in their teens were also seen barely carrying some lighter goods, which were all agricultural products produced by the Corn Kingdom.
The man known as Habu frowned when he heard the other party call 'untouchables', but quickly covered it up, and then said with a smile: "I have delivered the money for this transaction to the earl in advance, Mr. Steward can verify it."
The butler said that he had already verified it with the Earl, and at the same time said with a smile: "Not only the Earl has always said that it is great to cooperate with you, but even other nobles also like this kind of cooperation very much."
Habu smiled and did not speak, and soon the shipment of the goods was completed, and then Habu secretly stuffed an envelope into the butler's hand, and asked the butler in a low voice: "By the way, that matter I mentioned to the Earl earlier."
After the housekeeper felt the bulging envelope, he also showed a bright smile on his face. He looked around and whispered, "I heard from the earl that it's a sure thing."
After Habu nodded, he said goodbye to the steward and returned to the boat. After returning to the boat, several men in cloaks greeted Habu. After Habu nodded to them, he came to the bow. There stood a woman in a white cloak with short black hair, a pair of clear and piercing eyes, and a white saber pinned to her waist.
"Director Kuina, everything has been arranged, and the noble title of the Corn Kingdom should come down soon."
Habu stood behind the woman and reported the latest situation, and the woman in front of him was Kuina who had left half a year earlier than Shire to join the Revolutionary Army.
But at this moment, Kuina stood quietly on the deck of the bow, looking blankly at the men and children below who were happy to get their wages just now.
But Habu was silent for a while and said: "This situation should not last for too long."
Kuina just smiled and said: "That's right. I guess the nobles in the Corn Kingdom have taken us for a fool at this time, but I don't know if they can still laugh later."
After hearing what Guyina said, Habu also had a serious expression, and then he couldn't help but think of what the woman in front of him had done in the past year, and he couldn't help but sigh in his heart that Mr. Long really didn't misunderstand the person.
"By the way, what's the situation with Anna?" Kuina retracted her gaze and asked about other things.
Habu pushed his glasses: "Anna has basically controlled the ports of some islands, small towns, and villages near the sea area of the Goa Kingdom. At the same time, all the pirates who did not listen to the warning have been cleared away. Now all the ports are in our hands. We have also started a secret infiltration operation in the Goa Kingdom."
After hearing this, Kuina nodded with emotion: "I thought this matter would take a lot of time, but I didn't expect it to go so smoothly."
"Yeah. Mainly thanks to the Navy"
Habu seemed to recall the incredible fact that everything went smoothly after arriving in the East China Sea.
However, in the past half a year or so, something happened that caught the attention of many people in the world, that is, the world government invited a certain pirate to be the "Qiwuhai" and was rejected!
