Chapter 34: Expansion Preparation

"Boss, our guild is rich now, right?" I was happy when a cold voice suddenly appeared behind me.

"Woma?"

"You see, the guild's funds are not so tight now. Can Noah's project be reopened?"

"How much more do you want?" I asked carefully.

"Wait a moment." Woma immediately turned around and said to a handsome blonde man next to him: "Calculate it."

The handsome guy immediately took out something made of wood. I looked carefully and it turned out to be an abacus. This foreign player actually made the abacus thunderous sound, muttering something in his mouth.

I looked at Woma and said, "Is this..."

Woma looked back and said, "Oh, this is my special assistant. If you throw me such a large guild project, of course I want several assistants. This one is specifically responsible for the project budget. I also have two urban planning assistants, three general affairs coordination assistants, four quality supervision assistants, five progress coordination assistants, and six...!"

"Wait, how many assistants do you have?"

Rose smiled and said, "Woma has too many jobs. I have approved her special assistant, with a total of more than 100, which has been greatly simplified. This is a game, and we don't need to do many things. If there is such a big industry in reality, there is no need to do it. Without 30,000 to 50,000 administrative personnel, you shouldn't want to run it."

"Okay, okay, just tell me how much more investment should I invest?"

The assistant of Woma quickly raised his head and said, "I've finished the calculation. If the president can temporarily slow down the repair work in Tianyu City and transfer at least 500,000 NPC workers to participate in the project in Asia, the project budget can be reduced to less than 1.27 billion crystal coins. If the laborers are not transferred, but are recruited in Aisinger's free NPC, then at least 200 million crystal coins will be added."

I thought for a while and said, "Wait first. The money cannot be spent indiscriminately now. We must concentrate the main projects. The main personnel of the ruling guild came to the Central Conference Hall of Aisinger for a meeting. We used to be too casual. If we had money, we would spend it everywhere and blossom and bear fruit everywhere! This time we can't do this, we must study it carefully."

At this time, my dad stood up next to the host computer of Longyuan Base looking at the screen and smiling. The screen showed the scene of me holding a meeting. Behind my dad was the director of the base, and he was also my dad's friend for many years. "Chairman, don't you watch it?"

The father smiled and said, "There is no need to watch it again in the future. The child has grown up."

The supervisor looked at the screen and said, "Learning to spend money is just the beginning."

As the father walked towards the door, he said, "The master led the door and practiced by himself. He could realize that his shortcomings were the greatest progress. He was rich and rich and defeated, because he could not see his shortcomings. He was able to reach this point because he was able to overcome the biggest obstacle. As long as he practiced more in the future, he would be greater than our achievements."

"You're at ease."

"I'm confident. OK, let's not talk about it anymore. I still have something to do, so let's go first."

In the conference hall of Aisinger, I was leaning against the super throne that came from Dragon Island. Rose sat next to me holding a notebook recording what everyone was saying. In front of us was a huge conference table more than three meters wide and twenty meters long. On the high-end crown chairs on both sides of the table were the main leaders of our guild. Behind these people was a large group of members sitting in simple and luxurious seats, all of which were assistant teams of leaders of various departments.

"We urgently called home because we now need to decide on the funding issues of the guild, which is our guild's monthly budget report! Just now Woma told me that Noah's improvement work still requires 1.27 billion to 1.47 billion crystal coins. I want to know what else is needed for funds."

Kris Dena said: "The Institute of Magic Crystal Dynamics has just received your Magic Puppet Research Plan. Because it involves red magic crystals and a large number of precious metals, the budget is quite high."

"Just tell me how much you want?"

"The preliminary estimate is that 10 million crystal coins are needed."

I nodded: "Is there anything else?"

The King of Chuang: "At present, our fleet has maintained high-intensity sea battles, and the losses are quite serious. Although the Japanese paid a more serious price, our losses still need to be supplemented. The funds are about 10 million crystal coins. Moreover, we have too few overseas ports, so we are really unable to expand our military power at present."

"So how do you think overseas ports should be obtained?"

"I want to learn from the Americans' methods, and then use a relatively small price to buy a part of overseas land as a base. At present, we have a large amount of black jade that can fully produce cross-border teleportation array systems. As long as the system is laid in various countries, we can increase troops and replenish supplies to any region at any time."

Rose quickly stopped: "Stop! Don't think too exaggerated in the short term. It took the Americans 50 years to complete the rough prototype of the world's strategic system. We don't have such energy. Besides, if you have completed your plan, 30 billion crystal coins are not enough!"

I nodded, "It's not possible to complete it all for the time being. First, just improve the Asian strategic system below. It's not necessary to rent it. Our maritime strength is still guaranteed. Just take it directly into military occupation. There are no diplomatic issues in the game, so don't be too polite."

The King of Chuang said: "If it is controlled by force, our fleet will be dispersed into multiple fleets, but our main ships are not enough!"

I immediately looked at Woma: "Didn't I get some crystal beetles back last time? Is there any excess production of ink steel?"

"have."

"Is it okay if 24 more Biling-class battleships were launched within three days?"

Woma was startled: "Impossible. Too many! If you use composite materials, I can get 12 Eternal Classes in a week. Don't think about Biling Classes."

"Then it's eternal. One week is too long. Within 5 days, 12 eternal ships will be launched."

"I'll try it!"

I nodded and looked at the King of Chuang: "Is this enough?"

"Enough."

"Okay, where else is needed for funds?"

Eagle said: "We looked at the gunpowder gun you got back last time. The War Machines Institute said there is no problem with imitating it, but special workers are needed. I calculated that recruiting these workers will cost about 1 million crystal coins, and production will continue to be invested. If you equip all NPCs and players in the guild as you said, it will cost about 300 million crystal coins."

I nodded: "What else?"

Fei'er said: "The fulcrum city needs to be built at the fulcrum. We cannot give the other party time to react. It is best to build the city overnight. This investment is relatively large."

Fei'er's assistant said: "There is already a guild in South Korea who is willing to sell a city to us. The price is about 5 million crystal coins. We probably still have room for bargaining."

I looked at the King of Break: "How many warships do we have now?"

"All of it?"

"Well. All ships that can go out to sea, but not submarines."

"About 2,500 ships, most of which are warships."

"Very good. After the meeting is over, I want you to quickly recruit all the warships, and we will assemble a fleet to prepare to grab the beach."

"Isn't it the boss? Is it necessary to dispatch more than 2,000 ships to grab the beach?"

"Of course it is necessary. The fulcrum city is the starting point for the future war against Japan, and it is probably the most profitable one in the near future. Hongyue, you are responsible for preparing all the materials needed to build the city, and loading the ship when the fleet comes back. I will transport it all in one breath. By the way, King of Chuang, how many people can these ships transport in total?"

“500,000 is not a problem.”

"Then draw 500,000 workers from Tianyu City to Aisinger to wait for the ship. Once the landing is successful, construction will start immediately. I want them to build the city within 10 hours. The Japanese will be shocked. Oh, Bingbing, go to Korea and contact Park Yin to tell them about the situation of the construction of the city. Once the construction is completed, they can help defend the city."

Rose added: "I think the cannons cannot be missing. For the first time, the Japanese attack and monster siege will be connected together, so we must be careful."

"Yes, you're right. Eagle, you're responsible for transporting all the weapons in stock in the guild there. Don't be afraid of spending money. I want to go one cannon after another on the walls of the fulcrum. If it's not enough, it's OK to dismantle Isinger's cannon. By the way, crystal chocolate?"

"I'm here."

"If you get more explosives, it would be a waste for our Air Force to not need it."

"As long as you are willing to spend money, I can let the spears plows use explosives to plow the Japanese island."

"Then there is no need, just keep the outside of the city safe."

Crystal Chocolate said excitedly: "Then let's have a mine array. I just completed the steel ball jumping to the mine. I don't know what the effect is, so I just want to experiment."

"Okay, there are some places that need money."

"this……"

"that……"

The people below were talking one by one for a long time, but fortunately they were all small projects, but there were too many. Rose memorized the entries of one book slowly, and finally no one spoke. I took off the buttons on the notebook and distributed the paper to the assistants: "Calculate quickly."

The sound of abacus below crackled for a long time, and then the numbers were summarized to Rose, and Rose directly calculated the total result. "A total of 3.121 billion crystal coins."

"So many?"

"There are many entries, and they add up so many." Rose looked at the list and said, "Why would you delete a few first?"

"Don't worry for now." I looked at Hongyue: "How much is the income from Yunxiao City now?"

"30 million crystal coins."

"How much is the export steel income from Woma Steel City?"

"About 20 million a month."

“What are our dividends in the Major League?”

Rose quickly made up. "That can't catch up, right?"

"Then let's look at the resource output of Qidian City."

"It produces about 20 million crystal coins, but it will not be discounted for a while!"

I nodded: "Then how many more do we lack?"

"About 70 million crystal coins."

"Where is the guild's current deposit?"

"Yes! Why did we forget our original deposit? Just thinking about the 3 billion bonus! The deposit is 120 million crystal coins, which is just enough."

I slapped the table and said, "That's it. The funds are limited in order to do it according to what I planned just now. It's getting late. Thank you for your hard work. Let's go offline and rest early."

There was a drizzling sound of packing things in the conference hall, and a large group of people left quickly, but Rose, Hongyue, Ying, Fei'er, Sumei, and Xiaoyao were all stayed.

After everyone was exposed, Hongyue leaned on the back of the chair and stretched: "Oh! I'm so tired! Why do you read other people's novels? It's so easy to be a leader on TV!"

I smiled and said, "Do you think it's a kid playing house? The bosses on TV are all fictional. It's so easy. Not everyone can be the boss?"

As soon as Hongyue pulled the handle on the side of the chair, the back of the chair automatically tilted backward to become a free chair. Hongyue put his hand under his head and looked at the crystal chandelier on the ceiling and said, "I used to say that I lacked experience and was a idle princess disease patient. I was not convinced at the beginning, but now I think about it because I was too willful at that time."

Su Mei said: "Managing a guild is not as simple as it seems, especially the setting of "Zero" is close to reality, and all trivial things have to be handled, and these small things are the most troublesome. Movies, TV, novels, etc. are all written in ideal states. Those bosses who just say two opinions and throw everything into their assistants will not be able to do it for a long time!"

Xiao Yao said: "We opened Japan's forward base so quickly, but the guild doesn't seem to have enough staff! We have been helping NPCs for many periods, and it's not OK to keep going like this! Do you think we are going to recruit personnel on a large scale?"

Rose said: "How is the more than 10,000 I collected last time for the membership inspection?"
