Chapter 70: Employment with a certificate

For Xie Wen, the greatest value of establishing a relationship with Morgans is to know the whereabouts of the items that can open up illustrated books for him. Whether he has time to obtain them is one thing. At least he will have a chance after knowing the whereabouts. get them.

 “Collector?”

Morgans grinned. He didn't think Xie Wen's request was a big deal, because more than one Xie Wen had made similar requests to him. Some of them wanted to use this to improve their strength, and some wanted to take the opportunity to earn a fortune. Pens, and some items that are commemorative to me and want to be recovered...

 Those like Xie Wen, who don’t care much about money and have no specific requirements for the items themselves but only limit the types, generally belong to collectors.

 So Morgans naturally thought that Xie Wen also belonged to this category of people.

“This is a small problem. I have a lot of information about Devil Fruits and famous swords, but I can’t give them all to you at once.”

This kind of information is too much for Morgans, and a lot of the information is not secret at all to underground forces like them, but he cannot give it all just because of a icing on the cake tourist guide.

Although Morgans himself is actually happy to do this, because only when these people fight for the treasure can he have big news to release, but even so, you still have to bargain.

Of course, Xie Wen also understood the other party's thoughts. He replied nonchalantly: "That's natural. Even if you give me all the information, I can't change my course immediately. I haven't even finished visiting the West Sea yet."

Morgans immediately understood the meaning of his words and laughed: "No problem, I can give you a piece of information about the West Sea first, and it's not too far from the Kingdom of Flowers. I'll wait for my next manuscript. How about passing it over and I'll give you the next piece of information?"

"Yes, but..." Xie Wen agreed, but he added another condition, "I also need a press pass from a news agency. The pass from the Navy is not very effective, and it is very troublesome to apply for it."

Originally, Xie Wen was planning to apply for the pass Cody mentioned when he caught pirates in exchange for bounty, but Robin suddenly appeared and disrupted his previous plan. After sending Robin away, Since he didn't encounter the naval base, he put the matter aside for the time being. He was not in a hurry to use it anyway, not to mention that Cody also said that the effect of the thing was not as good as before.

 It wasn’t until he had the idea of ​​​​contributing to the World Economic News that he suddenly realized that there seemed to be a better plan...

Morgens has a lot of cooperative relations with the World Government, and also has certain contacts with the aunt among the Four Emperors. Moreover, reporters from the World Economy Agency are all over the sea, and their press cards are definitely better than ordinary passes.

If it doesn't work here in Morgans, it's not too late to apply for a pass.

"No problem." However, this was a trivial matter to Morgans, so he agreed without thinking, and soon told Xie Wen the information about a famous sword.

The name of the knife in the information is "Chao Lan". There is no doubt that this is another good and fast knife.

After all, this is the first time we cooperate, so of course Morgans can’t come up with anything good.

After this period of travel, Xie Wen is not ignorant about these things. Generally speaking, the price of a good quick knife is around one million beli. Although it may fluctuate due to reputation, quality, etc., the price is generally This is the price above, and the price of the twenty-one-piece Great Quick Sword suddenly jumped to the tens of millions level, and there are even transaction records of nearly 100 million. As for the Supreme Great Quick Sword, it can no longer be measured by Bailey. Not even a single transaction record.

But for Xie Wen, there is no difference between these three levels of knives. Anyway, as long as you can open the illustrated book... Of course, there is a possibility that better knives will have a higher collection level after opening the illustrated book, but for now In other words, Xie Wen is not qualified to be picky.

It’s a pity that those good knives that are also at the level of fast knives but are not classified as famous knives cannot open the illustrated book. Otherwise, you only need about 500,000 Baileys to buy a weapon with good quality of fast knives.

To confirm this, Xie Wen also spent more than 400,000 beli to buy a Western sword named "Nome". As a result, the illustration in the manual had no response.

However, Xie Wen also came up with an idea - if he became famous using these originally unknown weapons, would he be able to have them appear in the illustrated book?

 It feels like it would be a very interesting thing to make the fresh sword Bai Nagi become a great sword, or even one of the supreme swords.

Although he had such an idea, Xie Wen did not try it immediately, because if he really wanted to do so, it would mean that he would have to constantly challenge those well-known swordsmen, and even have to put himself on the bounty list. This was different from what he had brought with him. The cats' plans for a low-key trip didn't go well.

 Besides, even if you want to be famous, you have to wait until you enter the Grand Line. How famous can you be in the world?

Unless he ran to find a certain future Yonko who went back to his hometown to buy wine, a certain naval hero who went back to his hometown to see his grandson, a certain Shichibukai who was floating around on a bamboo raft, and others to have a fight in full view of the public, then it would be possible for him to have a small fight Make a name for yourself.

 …

Although he got the whereabouts of a famous sword, Xie Wen had no intention of speeding up his journey. Instead, he continued to move forward leisurely according to the route he set at the beginning, even because he wanted to write the "Western Blue Tour Guide" Because of this, their speed was slower than before.

On the other hand, with the release of the latest issue of World Economic News, Xie Wen's "Western Blue Tour Guide" has also been loved by many people. Morgans even called him to inform him and gave him a friendly gift. The whereabouts of the new famous sword, but this time the information is not accurate, and it is not clear which famous sword it is, so Xie Wen needs to confirm it himself.

“Mr. Xie Wen, have you finished writing the new tour guide?”

 After giving out the new information, Morgans began to press for the manuscript.

"I've already finished writing. I just need the final pictures, but I don't recommend you send them out so quickly." Xie Wen picked his nose and explained: "Not all islands are suitable for introduction, and the content of most towns It’s not as rich as the Kingdom of Flowers. I combined several places I’ve been to before to scrape together an article. I’m not sure when I’ll be able to gather enough material, so I think it’s better to take it slow. Okay." In order to prevent Morgans from misunderstanding that he wanted to raise the price on the ground and affect the cooperative relationship between the two parties, Xie Wen added: "Of course, you are the professional when it comes to running a newspaper. I just want to give you an opinion and wait until the pictures are matched and the manuscript is completed. It will be sent over.”

When Morgans gave Xie Wen his press pass, Newsbird also brought over the parts for faxing. It was only then that Xie Wen learned that the microphone, dial and other parts of the phone bug were all installed at the back. It goes up and can be taken down at any time...

This world is so amazing!

 Xie Wen couldn't help but sigh.

"No, no, no, your suggestion makes sense!" The magical phone bugs can not only make calls and fax, they can also imitate the expression of the caller. At this time, the expression of the bird-faced phone bug in front of Xie Wen was very excited. "Are you interested in officially taking up a position at World Economic News? Not the 'journalist' you were attached to before."

Although there are many reporters at World Economic News, there are too few talents like Xie Wen who can give advice on newspaper management. Therefore, even though the other party is not well-known now and his origin is not clear, Morgans still reaches out to him. I got an olive branch... Anyway, it doesn't affect my own newspaper.

Xie Wen only hesitated for two seconds before agreeing. Anyway, he didn't suffer any loss, so why not?

After becoming the "own person" of the World Economic and Social News Agency, Morgans immediately gave him a set of passwords, which were used to contact the news agency's foreign reporters and News Birds. Xie Wen could use them to share the nearby area. first-hand accounts of, and...

There is no need to spend money to buy newspapers.

Of course, Xie Wen did not get these benefits for nothing. In the future, when people from the news agency ask him for help, he will also provide help to the best of his ability. In addition, if he learns any secrets or news, he can also contact Morgans through the phone bug. , in exchange for the information or property he wants.

"Oh... when you say that, I seem to have some news here, and I don't know if you can use it." After thinking about it for a moment, Xie Wen decisively sold Cody, "I accidentally knew someone I learned about an organization called CP and the identity of one of its members, but I don’t know what that organization and that member do specifically.”

  Xie Wen still had some tricks up his sleeve. After all, how could he, an ordinary traveler, know what the CP organization was?

 He just learned this information accidentally, and then wanted to exchange this information for some information.

“C, CP organization?!”

Morgens also didn’t expect that he could actually hear such explosive content from Xie Wen’s mouth. The management of his emotions and expressions were out of control at the same time, and they were simultaneously reflected on Xie Wen’s phone bug.

Looking at the distorted phone bug in front of him, Xie Wen couldn't help but marvel at the magic of the pirate world again... It's a blessing that it can imitate Morgans' exaggerated expression so vividly.

“Wait a minute, stop talking!” Morgans, who came back to his senses, shouted quickly: “Wait until I send someone to send you a phone bug to prevent eavesdropping!”

Morgens did this not because he was interested in the intelligence of the CP organization, but because he was worried that Xie Wen would suddenly say some shocking news in the future.

I set the price of the famous sword according to the price given by the owner of the weapon shop in Rogge Town and Dasqi... To be honest, it is much cheaper than expected. There are less than 100 knives in the world, which is just one pirate. It's just a bounty, I didn't pay much attention to it when I read the comics before.

However, this is also related to the excessive inflation of bounties later on. Judging from the early plot alone, this price is actually quite normal.

  …

Several readers are asking about the pass, as if Xie Wen will be judged as a pirate immediately if he doesn’t apply for it...

But my idea is that Xie Wen is not causing trouble now, and he has been helping to kill pirates. There are only one person and two cats on the ship. The navy only came to trouble him when they were full.

When the navy or the Celestial Dragons are really provoked in the future, this certificate will not mean much.

Furthermore, in my setting, this pass no longer has much authority with the advent of the great pirate era. The article also makes it very clear that it is to deal with the navy, but Xie Wen can basically not mess with the navy now.

So this is something that you don’t have to do in a hurry, and even if you don’t do it, it won’t have much impact.

In addition, even if there is a pass-like setting in the original work, it is somewhat useful in the four seas. When it comes to the Grand Line, especially the new world in the second half, a flag of the Yonko or the Shichibukai is more useful than this thing.

But the press card of the World Economic and Social News Agency is different. It can be regarded as a bit of face in both black and white of the new world.
