One Piece Legendary Family

Chapter 11 Invitation

The weather is bright and the sky is clear.

As usual, Charlotte came home from fencing training on the beach.

"Mr. Charlotte, the mayor invites you."

Suddenly a man wearing a security uniform appeared and looked at Charlotte and said respectfully.

Charlotte naturally knows this man, because he is the captain of the town's security team, and the Hiberfield family has had many contacts with them.

"Grandpa Mayor?"

Charlotte was somewhat surprised to hear that the old mayor was looking for him.

You know, the old mayor is also a legendary figure on Lati Island.

Thirty-two years ago, the small town on Lati Island was destroyed by pirates. The old mayor Caout led the remaining residents to re-establish the small town of Lati on the ruins.

It is precisely because of the appearance of the old mayor Caoute that the current town came into being. Although it did not prosper due to various reasons, his outstanding contribution can never be erased.

The residents of the town respect the old mayor from the bottom of their hearts.

Although he was a little confused and surprised, Charlotte still followed the dedicated captain of the security team.

He also wanted to see what the old mayor wanted from him.

You must know that the old mayor hasn't looked for him for a long time, but today he was suddenly called over by the old mayor. He didn't know what he was going to do?

Not long after, Charlotte was taken to the only bar in the town by the captain of the security team.

——Lati Island Banquet Bar.

Charlotte walked in and saw the white-haired old mayor sitting there alone.

Dressed in simple and neat clothes, with his white hair carefully taken care of, the calm old man looked ordinary.

The captain of the security team brought Charlotte behind, then bowed and retreated.

"Grandpa Caute."

Charlotte asked with some curiosity. He respected this old man from the bottom of his heart. You must know that he was an orphan who was accidentally homeless. He grew up smoothly because of the old mayor's kindness.

This was a great favor to him.

"Haha! Little Charlotte, I didn't expect you to be so competitive. When you get older, you are really no match for you young people!"

The old mayor Caoute laughed heartily.

"Grandpa Caout, you are not old at all."

Charlotte said with a smile, and then asked.

"Well, Grandpa Caout, what do you want from me?"

The old mayor suddenly fell silent, and Charlotte's heart couldn't help but thump.

With this expression, this demeanor, this atmosphere, there must be something big going on that he doesn't know about.

"Well, actually, there is a businessman from overseas who wants to transit here and carry out long-term shipping..."

Upon hearing this, Charlotte frowned slightly. Of course he understood what the old mayor meant.

Although he plans to develop the seaport's economy under Ivan's advice, he has not yet planned to do this in the next year or two.

Because once the ships continue to come and go, it is easy for pirates to notice this place.

Mainly if he hasn't obtained Whitebeard's protective flag yet, the risk is a bit high.

This seaport was built by the gangster he defeated, and he took over all the forces of the other party.

The port naturally belongs to his name.

This is why the old mayor came to him.

The old mayor took a sip of wine, took a moment and continued slowly.

"If you agree, it can boost the town's economy and you can also get a lot of business tax revenue."

Charlotte was silent.

He is naturally aware of the benefits, but the risks of exposure are equally great!

You must know that if the pirates know about such a place, that is, the shark smells the smell of blood, and will never give up the idea of ​​attacking here.

"So, little Charlotte, what do you think?"

When Charlotte heard the old mayor's words, he looked up and saw the old mayor with an expectant look on his face. He sighed helplessly.

He knew very well that the old mayor was too old and had only a few years to live. All his life, he wanted to see the town prosper.

All his life's energy and sweat have been spent here, and he hopes that one day this place will develop into a world-famous port.

Let the town residents live a happy, stable and prosperous life.

This is the old man's lifelong wish.

Charlotte opened his mouth, but he could not refuse the last wish of such a pure and kind old man.

He had made a decision in his heart, and it was not about his mother-in-law or mother-in-law.

"Okay, Grandpa Caout, no problem."

As Charlotte agreed, the old mayor laughed heartily.

"Thank you, little Charlotte, the old man has put you in a difficult position."

Charlotte shook her head helplessly.

Not to mention that when he agreed, he felt relieved.

He also figured out that the great thing is that a merchant can only transfer goods, how many can he have.

Pirates will also focus on those extremely prosperous ports.

Is their port on Lati Island still far behind?

There's still time!

So his mood was not as heavy as he imagined.

"Grandpa Kaout, I will send someone to talk to him."

"Thank you for your hard work, little Charlotte."

"I'm leaving, Grandpa Caout, please pay attention to rest."

Charlotte got up and left the bar, preparing to arrange the next thing.

The old mayor Caout watched Charlotte leaving and whispered softly, "Little guy, I will leave Lati Island to you from now on."

After saying that, he started drinking wine happily.

Naturally, Charlotte didn't know what the old mayor was saying after he left.

Instead, he quickly returned to the Hiberfield family’s residence.

Immediately arranged for Ivan to contact offshore merchants and inform them of Lati Island's rules.

There is no rule without rules.

If there are unavoidable losses, it would be a disaster.

He didn't want his name to get out because of this little thing.

It is the right way for everyone to do business quietly!

You do your work, and I live my life of lying down, this is perfect!

As for the rest, just don't provoke him.
