In a luxurious restaurant in Dresrosa, Giotto sat alone on a chair. The table in front of him was filled with delicious food and wine. It was obvious that he was waiting for someone to arrive.
The restaurant had been completely booked by Giotto. Today, not even a waiter would stay here. The chef left after he finished cooking. After all, the meeting that was about to take place here did not allow ordinary people to be present. The people of the underworld were not so easy to interact with.
Moreover, this time, Giotto was about to come into contact with an unusual mission in the Dark World, the Sea Transport King! Deep Ocean Current Umit!
"Nice to meet you. It's an honor to meet the leader of the Pengali family, a big shot whose name has shaken the New World!”
At this moment, a bearded man wearing a captain's hat suddenly pushed open the door and sat directly opposite Giotto.""Then, I don't need to say any more nonsense. Your Excellency Pengri the First should already know my purpose for coming here, right?”
"My family only told me that you were here to discuss a business deal. They didn't tell me the specific situation. So, even if it's nonsense, please be clear. You specialize in the transportation business, why are you in the Pengali family?”Giotto looked at Umit calmly. He had to be careful when doing business with the people of the Dark World.
These guys were not as easy to deal with as cunning devils!
Especially someone like Umit who had reached a high position. If he was slightly careless, he might eat you whole!
"In that case, I'll get straight to the point. Not long ago, Sir Pengri the First sold a large amount of gold worth 1.7 billion Bailey. That was quite a fortune! According to the information I have, the origin of this batch of gold is a secret. After many speculations, the place where you most likely obtained this gold is actually related to a fairy tale book.”
Umit said confidently,"" Lolando the Great Liar, a story about the botanist and captain of the expedition team of the Rubnir Kingdom of the North Sea, Vimbra Lolando, four hundred years ago. The book mentioned a city of interest, Sandora, the Golden Village. The book mentioned that the Golden Village was located on Gaya Island, and the last place where Sir Pengri the First appeared before he obtained the batch of gold was... Gaya Island!”
"I'm a very realistic person and never believe in fairy tales. But when so many coincidences point to the same place, even I can't believe that it's really just a coincidence. So…Your Excellency Pengri the First, when you were on Gaya Island, you did indeed discover the Golden Village that disappeared in the fairy tale, right?”
After hearing this, Giotto couldn't help but look at the man in front of him in a higher light. It seemed that those who could reach a high position in the underworld were indeed not simple missions. Through these seemingly unrelated pieces of information, he could actually deduce the truth and even believe in a fairy tale that no one could believe.
"You already said that it was a fairy tale, so why do you still believe in that kind of illusory thing?”Giotto looked at the person in front of him strangely and asked softly.
"It's a fairy tale, but it's also history. There's not much difference between the two. In any case, it's something we've only heard of and have never seen before, right? Speaking of which, Sir Pengri the First didn't deny the existence of Golden Village, which means that the Pengri Family does have the coordinates of Sandora, right?”
Umit kept trying to guess Giotto's thoughts. His eyes were fixed on Giotto's face, trying to guess his thoughts through the changes in his facial details.
"So what if I am? Don't tell me you want to snatch Golden Village from my hands?”
Giotto's body suddenly emitted a pressure. His expression remained calm as his eyes locked onto Umit.
"Of course I wouldn't have such a dangerous thought. I know the strength of the Pengelie family very well. It's not a wise choice to provoke a strong enemy for no reason. Moreover, in business, it was a win-win situation to be harmonious, wasn't it?”
"Let's get down to business!" Umit laughed. Recently, the Pengelie family has just taken over the two islands, Green Iron Island and White Rock Island. It is obvious that the development and expansion will require a large amount of funds. It is precisely because of this that you have taken out a portion of the gold to sell. However, there will be two problems in this process…"
"First, the amount of goods transported is limited. It will be difficult to fill the gap in your family's development funds in a short period of time. Secondly, if such a large amount of gold was discovered, it would also cause unnecessary trouble for your family. Money could easily drive some people crazy. Even the reputation of the Pengelie family might not be able to intimidate everyone.”
Hearing this, Giotto could not help but nod.
He had to admit that Umit made a lot of sense on both points. The Golden Village was located on the island, and every time he transported it, it was quite troublesome, time-consuming, and laborious. Moreover, if people found out that the Pengali family had a large source of gold, it would indeed attract the attention of many greedy people.
More importantly, the development of the family required a large amount of funds. Willy alone needed to invest at least five billion Bailey!
"Umit, what do you want to do?”Giotto did not intend to beat around the bush with this guy in front of him.
"It's very simple. I can help the Pengelie family transport and sell the gold, but I need to take half of it!”
Umit was asking for an exorbitant price, wanting to get half of Golden Village's gold in one go.
At this moment, a cold glint flashed across Giotto's eyes. A bone-chilling aura instantly enveloped Umit. Then, a deep voice slowly sounded from his mouth,"Umit, did you know? Although you have arranged for more than 60 people outside the restaurant, I can completely take care of them and you.”
"I believe you! Someone who could escape from White Beard and Big Mom's hands would definitely have the strength to do so. But at the same time, I believe that you wouldn't do that, right?”
Umit was very confident in his judgment because he had grasped the fact that the Pengelie family needed funds, and he was definitely the best choice for this business.
Because he was in charge of many shipping businesses!
"30%, this is my bottom line. If…"
"Deal! I hope we can have a pleasant cooperation!"
Umit agreed before Giotto could finish.
Seeing that he had agreed so readily, Giotto felt that he had asked for too much. Although he had lowered the price from 50% to 30%, why did he feel that he had suffered a loss?
