Chapitre 1363: Crimson Sword Pirates (Part-4)

Alexander was well aware that hiring the pirates and building his navy were not mutually exclusive.

He could use them both- just for different purposes. 

Or even together if he should wish, such as bolstering each other's numbers in the event of a battle.

"I see. So you wish to both guard my ships and destroy my competition." Alexander at last chimed with a light nod, not showing any real objection to this arrangement.

Although he was pro free trade, Alexander was also not averse to kicking his enemies in the nuts if he could.

Alexander wanted to get an idea of the rate of return on his investment.

"Last year we made the family about one and a half million wesas milord." Vidiyan stated in an almost memorized tone, "I can promise a similar amount in a few years."
