"What's going on? Since last night, no one has bought equipment. If it was because of the ranking yesterday, people would have gone to watch the fun, but it's already noon..."
On the Sky City, the store managers of several equipment stores looked at the motionless data and felt an ominous premonition in their hearts.
"How about telling Mr. Cang Wolf King?!"
"Let me tell you, something doesn't seem right about this situation..."
Soon, several store managers contacted Canglang King to inform them of the situation in the equipment store.
After a while, the Blue Wolf King took people up to the Sky City.
"Since last night, not a single piece of equipment has been sold yet?!"
The Canglang King summoned all ten equipment store managers under his command to inquire about the situation.
"It's not like there were no sales at all. Ten stores sold a total of thirteen pieces of equipment, all last night when the Xuanwu City Gate was connected..."
"Xuanwu City Gate..."
The Blue Wolf King frowned, suspecting that this matter might have something to do with the Barbarian King.
"Check, you sent someone to keep an eye on the cloud equipment for me. I want to know the current circulation situation..."
"yes!"
The equipment shops under the name of Canglang King are the largest in Kun City. With his advantage, he has seized most of the equipment market in the three city gates.
The only person who might be causing trouble behind the scenes, judging from the current situation, is the Barbarian King of Xuanwu City Gate.
Canglang King himself was not idle, looking at the status of the equipment in the cloud.
First, he came up with a search method in ascending price order. The first page that came out, without exception, was all stores under his own name.
Then, he turned back page after page, until he stopped at a place that was obviously more expensive than their price.
"The last thirty or so pages should be the Barbarian King's equipment shop. The price is 30% higher than ours..."
"The price is 30% higher than my equipment. It makes no sense that he is responsible..."
The Canglang King felt that maybe he had thought too much. The Barbarian King had just connected to the center of the city, so how could he have the ability to do such a thing.
…
"Lord Barbarian King, in one night, we resold equipment and made a total profit of 3.25 million crystal cores..."
Wang Juting's face was full of exhaustion, but her eyes were full of energy, and she excitedly reported her results to Zhang Fan.
"Well done!"
Zhang Fan sighed in admiration and began to distribute.
He first allocated one million and handed it over to the intelligence team, which was responsible for obtaining information on the reputation mission.
Immediately afterwards, he took out another 1.5 million, intending to give it to the new superpowers to improve their level.
"Where's Xu Sulan?"
As soon as Zhang Fan asked, he realized that this woman probably couldn't get out of bed.
"Ah, Team Leader Xu is never late. I don't know what happened today. He didn't come here all morning..."
Zhang Fan coughed, pretended not to know, and said: "Then leave her alone. Team leader Xu is usually very tired and hard. Let her have a good rest. Who, call He Qin over..."
Soon, He Qin rushed to the office. It was a little strange. Normally, King Man would send a message directly to her when something happened. Today, for some reason, he sent someone to invite her. He asked in confusion: "Master Man King, are you looking for me?"
"Um!"
Zhang Fan nodded and said: "New superpower users should spend 1.5 million crystal cores in the early stage to improve their level. You can bring out a list and see who will be promoted first..."
"ah?"
He Qin was stunned for a moment and said: "This is usually given by Team Leader Xu. She has a superpower analysis team over there..."
I still have to find Xu Sulan...
Zhang Fan frowned slightly, Xu Sulan probably hadn't woken up yet.
"Dong dong dong~~!"
Just then, someone knocked on the door.
"Enter!"
After he finished speaking, a face that surprised Zhang Fan appeared at the door of the office.
"Wang Nannan?"
At the door, Wang Nannan rubbed her hands nervously, holding an A4 paper, and whispered: "Well, Mr. Man King, my mother asked me to give this to you..."
Seeing this, He Qin stepped forward to take the page, without reading the content, and handed it directly to Zhang Fan.
Zhang Fan took it and took a look and found that it was a potential assessment report for superpowers, which listed the abilities and potential of each new superpower, as well as the order of priority for upgrading.
When did this woman do this?!
Zhang Fan was very surprised, the two of them had never separated for a while...
You should have given the instructions to your subordinates yesterday, right?!
Zhang Fan nodded slightly. Xu Sulan was indeed very reassuring in such serious matters.
Then, he handed the list to He Qin and said, "This is the list. Just follow what's on the list..."
After speaking, he transferred 1.5 million crystal cores to He Qin.
At the door, Wang Nannan was still standing with an uneasy look on her face. Zhang Fan didn't let her go, and she stopped motionless.
Looking at her reaction, Zhang Fan understood that Xu Sulan probably hadn't told Wang Nannan.
After thinking for a while, he pretended to ask: "Wang Nannan, why didn't your mother come over?!"
Wang Nannan trembled and explained in a low voice: "My mother was busy last night and didn't come back all night. When I got home, I found that I forgot to hand in the list to you, but I was too sleepy, so she asked me to help deliver it...
"
Zhang Fan narrowed his eyes. If an ordinary person did this, he might not think much about it, but Xu Sulan, maybe there is some deep meaning?
After thinking for a while, Zhang Fan didn't even think about what the woman was thinking, so he simply said directly: "Did your mother say anything when she asked you to come over?!"
"have……"
Wang Nannan glanced at He Qin and Wang Juting nervously.
Zhang Fan saw this and glanced at the two of them, "You guys get out first!"
"yes!"
The two of them didn't think much and quickly walked out the door.
After the two left, Wang Nannan said: "My mother said that you are going to set up a secretariat here, and you want me to come in and study..."
Secretariat?!
Zhang Fan was startled and realized that Xu Sulan wanted to go out alone and lead the secretariat alone.
Let Wang Nannan test your tone?
The corners of Zhang Fan's mouth twitched, and he didn't know what Xu Sulan was thinking.
He asked calmly: "Did your mother tell you what this secretariat does?"
Wang Nannan's eyes were a little confused and she shook her head.
"Then what do you think it does?"
"Maybe... he's a handyman, right?!"
Secretariat...
Zhang Fan tapped his fingers on the table, thinking about the necessity of establishing this department.
If he wants the Secretariat to take precedence over other departments, he may not be willing to do so.
However, if it is on the same level as other departments, it is not impossible...
After thinking about it, Zhang Fan nodded and said: "Since you have come here, from now on, study hard in the secretariat and strive to be able to stand alone like your mother..."
"Thank you, Lord Barbarian King!" Wang Nannan smiled happily and thanked her quickly.
Zhang Fan waved his hand, "Okay, you go and do your work..."
After sending Wang Nannan away, Zhang Fan took care of a few more minor matters, and then dragged his tired body back home.
As soon as he entered the door, he saw Liu Mengyao staring at him with a look of resentment, "Why didn't you come back last night?"
Zhang Fan's face darkened, "If I can't come back, I have to report to you?!"
Liu Mengyao muttered dissatisfiedly: "You just don't want to give me the power ball. As for avoiding me?!"
Zhang Fan rolled his eyes, was too lazy to pay attention to this sentimental guy, and walked directly upstairs.
…
"Lord Canglang King, we have found out that there is indeed a batch of equipment that is constantly circulating..."
"Whose?"
The Cang Wolf King had a cold look on his face.
I thought it was just people not buying the equipment, but now it seems that someone really did it.
One of the store managers under me had a complicated face and said, "It's the Barbarian King Equipment Shop..."
"Um?!"
The Canglang King was stunned. He thought it could be someone else, but who would have thought, it turned out to be the Barbarian King.
"No, Barbarian King just connected to the city center yesterday, and they didn't even have time to change the cloud price of their equipment shop..."
"Lord Blue Wolf King, it is really the Barbarian King's equipment shop. We have looked carefully and only his equipment is constantly circulating..."
The Canglang King opened the cloud and directly selected the most expensive search tag, but it ended up on the page belonging to the Barbarian King's equipment.
Just after watching it for a while, several pieces of equipment disappeared, and soon they were replaced with new ones.
"He is really a barbarian king..."
The Canglang King looked solemn, but also a little confused, "That's not right, this guy's equipment is 30% better than our equipment, why can it be sold?!"
Several store managers below looked at each other, and one person stood up as a representative and said: "Master Canglang King, after inquiring, we sent spies to learn more about it and discovered a secret..."
"What secret?!"
"The Barbarian King Equipment Shop has members..."
"What?!"
The Canglang King was confused, what kind of membership?
When he learned about the membership-based discounts from several store managers, the Canglang King was shocked.
"So, after the Barbarian King first connected to the city center, he asked everyone from Xuanwu City Gate to go to other city gates to recruit members?!"
"Yes, he offers a huge commission to members. It is divided into three levels of fission mode. Every existing member can get 87.5% of the membership fee for each member he recruits..."
Canglang King took the Barbarian Equipment Shop membership discount and calculated it, and found that it was indeed 20% cheaper than the equipment priced here.
"Barbarian King, you bastard!"
The Canglang King gritted his teeth. He did not expect that the equipment market that belonged to him would be cut off.
He relied on more than a dozen equipment shops and fought various price wars to win the entire equipment market in Kun City. Who knew that when the Barbarian King came, he immediately cut it off.
"Not only that, according to calculations, the Man King received a large amount of funds when recruiting members, and also received a large amount of funds when these members upgraded. Finally, the newly upgraded members replenished equipment for themselves, and allowed the Man King to
Earned a large amount of money. According to calculations, the profits earned by this wave of barbarian kings exceeded 6 million..."
The Blue Wolf King's eyes immediately turned red, and he directly opened the Barbarian King's communication and asked him about the situation.
Zhang Fan was sleeping at the moment, so he naturally had no time to reply to him.
Seeing that the Barbarian King did not return, the Canglang King became furious and said, "This bastard ignored me!"
Immediately afterwards, he contacted the equipment shops opened by other true kings in Kun City and informed him of the situation.
For a time, the nine true kings gathered together, each one filled with righteous indignation, wishing that the barbarian king could come up and explain.
"We can't just let it go. If this guy does this, we won't be able to sell any of our equipment..."
"Gan, why didn't I think of a way to open a membership..."
"Let's open now..."
“What the hell, we’ve already paid the money, who’s still asking us to become a member?!”
The nine people discussed one after another and discussed how to deal with the Barbarian King.
It wasn't until eight o'clock in the evening that Zhang Fan finally woke up. Looking at the messy messages in his address book, he couldn't help but laugh.
"These guys are really impatient!"
Zhang Fan was not in a hurry, but after washing up, he went to the Blue Building first.
In the Central Academy, Xu Sulan has already gone to work. She looks the same as before. After seeing Zhang Fan, she honestly called her Lord Barbarian and did not let outsiders notice anything strange.
"Well, Team Leader Xu, come to my office..."
Zhang Fan and Xu Sulan entered the office one after the other.
"What do you mean by the Secretariat?!"
As soon as he entered the door, Zhang Fan asked directly.
Xu Sulan was not nervous and said easily: "I want to reduce your burden..."
"Now, our camp is getting bigger and bigger, and there are more and more people to manage. There is often no coordination between departments. For example, the land reclamation team does not have a unified management..."
"Of course, the Secretariat doesn't mean to control other groups..."
Xu Sulan smiled and said: "I think so. The Secretariat, as the name suggests, facilitates you to manage these things. It does not control any power. It just organizes the information of various departments for you..."
"For example, the matters that each department has to deal with every day are reported to the Secretariat. Then you review it directly at the Secretariat. After approval, the Secretariat will deliver it..."
"After all, you are our king. You send direct voice messages every time, which seems unofficial and not majestic enough..."
Zhang Fan automatically filtered the flattering words, extracted the key words, squinted his eyes and said: "You only want the power to organize reports?"
"yes!"
Xu Sulan nodded and said directly: "I want to stay by your side..."
For some positions, the official position may not seem big, but the position is very important.
At first glance, this so-called secretariat is just a place where he, the Barbarian King, simply organizes the information reported by various departments and receives matters.
But in fact, he was directly responsible to King Man, and could see the secrets of various departments and coordinate the overall situation.
Zhang Fan pondered for a while and then said: "You must think clearly, the nature of this secretariat does not have the power to enforce laws..."
Xu Sulan smiled naturally, "I am very satisfied if I can share your worries..."
Zhang Fan nodded. It is indeed necessary to establish a secretariat. The main reason is to facilitate him to review documents. Moreover, with Xu Sulan's mental detection ability, he can know many secrets without establishing a secretariat, so...
Xu Sulan's purpose is to consolidate her position. She doesn't need power, just her importance in his heart.
Zhang Fan didn't expect this kind of trade-off, but he could understand it. After all, Xu Sulan's fundamental desire was to protect her and her daughter, not to pursue a career.
Zhang Fan clenched his chin, looked at Xu Sulan in front of him who was serious, as if the person they interacted with last night was not her, and said:
"Let's talk about it with Yuan Jian and the others. I plan to re-integrate various departments to facilitate management. You guys can see how to make it suitable and which departments need to be merged and created..."
In the past, when there were few people, it was possible to manage things randomly, but now, with more and more survivors, the management aspect is also somewhat stretched. We need a system that can keep up with it. At the very least, it sounds more formal.
