Outside the window, the queue has begun to move slowly. The bank has opened its door, and people holding their identity documents are eager to squeeze their heads toward the salesman selling bonds.
Looking away from the window, Zhao Tianqiang looked at Chu Zhaonan and asked.
"Why don't you earn this energy crystal yourself? Don't tell me that he will be short of money now."
The person Zhao Tianqiang refers to is naturally Zhu Tian.
The food trade brings in profits of nearly one million energy crystals every month. As the largest shareholder in the food business, Zhao Tianqiang would rather believe that the bank will go bankrupt than believe that Zhu Tian will be short of energy crystals.
"It's not that we're short of money, but doesn't Congressman Zhao understand that if you want to harvest wheat, you must first plant the wheat ears?" Chu Zhaonan said with a smile.
Zhao Tianqiang was stunned for a moment, then burst into laughter.
"It is truly an honor for us that the Marshal has such foresight."
"It's also my honor." Holding the soy milk cup in his hand, Chu Zhaonan smiled and raised the cup.
The two met and smiled, and nothing was said. After all, both of them changed the trajectory of their lives because of Zhu Tian.
Zhao Tianqiang would have died in the civil war if it weren't for Zhu Tian, and the same was true for Chu Zhaonan. So both of them were very lucky to have a leader like Zhu Tian!
...
In the holographic conference room, Chu Zhaonan's holographic projection stood opposite the long table and reported to Zhu Tian the situation on the first day of the war bond issuance.
"...Including the pre-sale portion, the war bonds totaling two million energy crystals were sold out on the same day. In addition, the recruitment process has reached 30% and is expected to be completed within a week.
"
"It's like picking up money." Zhu Tian couldn't help but admire.
"Credibility comes in handy, and people rush to buy it."
"No, no, no, credibility is only about the people's belief that we will pay. The reason why people buy war bonds is not because of credibility, but because they support this war." Zhu Tian said with a smile while leaning on the boss's chair.
"Because it's profitable?" Chu Zhaonan teased.
"On the one hand, it is." Zhu Tian smiled.
Chu Zhaonan didn't ask what the other side was, he just smiled and flipped the documents in his hand.
"Is this what you need to report to me?" Zhu Tian asked.
"No, there is another good news." Chu Zhaonan said.
"oh?"
"Remember that Feng De? The order you placed with him has now been completed."
When he first occupied the Tianyuan base, Zhu Tian promised certain benefits to the five members who surrendered. This included Zhao Tianqiang's food business, the inner circle reconstruction project of Yecheng's Coastline Company, and Feng De's Starry Sky.
Pre-war technology recycling by technology companies and the YZ-50 development project.
"It was completed so quickly?" Zhu Tian looked at Chu Zhaonan with some surprise.
Originally, he had expected that this research and development would take at least a year, but he didn't expect that they would complete it so quickly.
"Yes, they are done." Chu Zhaonan nodded.
"Arrange their technicians to deliver production process-related documents to our factory, and once the helicopter is successfully put into production, we will send them the remaining 120,000 energy crystals." Zhu Tian said immediately, with unconcealable joy on his face.
The completion of the YZ-50 development means that the New Ming Empire will gain the ability to produce helicopters, completely breaking Lishui Town's monopoly on aviation power. And with the industrial capabilities of the New Ming Empire, Lishui Town, who is on the deck, cannot use it.
How long will it take before they are thrown out of the streets?
"Okay. Feng De also asked me if you have any new scientific research projects for him." Chu Zhaonan nodded.
"Of course, you ask him if he is interested in cooperative scientific research projects. If so, talk to him about developing fighter jets."
Chu Zhaonan was stunned for a moment and repeated it as if to confirm.
"fighter?"
"That's right, a fixed-wing aircraft, the kind that can drop 200 kilograms of bombs on the enemy's head." Zhu Tian said.
"To be honest, the development of fixed-wing aircraft is probably much more difficult than that of helicopters. And the combat effectiveness in the wasteland is not necessarily much better than that of helicopters." Chu Zhaonan advised cautiously.
Now that the production process of the YZ-50 has just been developed, the development of fighter jets has not even been put into operation before the trial production line is operational? According to Chu Zhaonan’s idea, it is best to continue along the helicopter path to YZ-50.
50 as a template, which will be continuously strengthened through technology.
Fighters? The combat radius of the New Daming Dynasty is only a few dozen kilometers. Do you need fighter jets?
However, Chu Zhaonan didn't know that Zhu Tian, the fighter jet, planned to bring it to the present world for use.
"Look further, the enemy in front of us is not just those little mutants. The Northern United District has always had bad intentions towards Jinling City, a geomantic treasure land. Look further. Look further.
Throughout Pan Asia, and even on the other side of the ocean, no one knows what is there or what the people there are thinking. Since sooner or later, I will have to face those things, I hope that I will not be unprepared then. So now, you still
Do you think the development of fixed-wing aircraft is unnecessary?"
"You are right, Marshal." Chu Zhaonan replied quickly.
Regardless of whether it's right or not, if you continue to talk back, you'll be an idiot.
Zhu Tian nodded: "Very good, that's it."
After ending the call with Chu Zhaonan, Zhu Tian leaned on the chair and stretched.
"Ah... I'm really exhausted. Ms. Staff, how about you give me a squeeze on your shoulder?"
"With all due respect, this is the secretary's job." Xu Anhua, standing in the corner of the conference room, folded his arms and said coldly.
"Isn't the staff officer the marshal's secretary?" Zhu Tian said in a joking tone.
"Although your point of view is very novel, let me reject it."
"That's such a shame."
Zhu Tian made an exaggerated expression of disappointment, stood up on the armrest, and walked towards the door of the conference room in a happy mood.
"If you want to install fighter jets in the army, I suggest you form an air force formation that is independent of the army." Xu Anhua said in a calm tone.
"It's too early. Those scientists haven't even built a model of the 'toy' for me yet."
Zhu Tian laughed, his voice gradually getting louder in the empty corridor.
The so-called marshal does not necessarily have to stay in the office in a formal manner. It is enough to appear in front of people when they need it. As for those chores, they can be left to the staff... This
This is Zhu Tian's explanation of his current position. He is not making excuses for his laziness.
In summary,
After sitting idle in the office for half an hour, Zhu Tian told Xu Anhua, "Come back to me if you need anything" and then left the office gracefully.
It's already early June.
He estimated that he would have to go back in a few days, and Zhu Tian wanted to spend more time with his beloved.
Across the square in front of the community center, two hundred meters to the north is the training ground. There is a neat row of trucks parked at the door, as well as hunting tigers that are still in service. Women stand here waiting for their husbands, because they will not be here soon.
Then he will go to the front line.
When Zhu Tian passed by the door, he saw the training ground was completely dark.
The First Army Corps is about to set off, and Zhou Weiguo is doing the final mobilization of the soldiers. Once the mobilization meeting is over, they will get on the car at the door and go directly to the front line.
Just yesterday, the Marshal's Mansion approved the Tianyuan Base Council's request to declare war on mutants. Now the entire New Ming Dynasty has entered a state of war. Although the mutants have definitely not received the news, it is absolutely right to complete the deployment of border troops as soon as possible.
of.
Among the crowd, Zhu Tian accidentally caught a glimpse of an acquaintance.
It was Fan Xiaoqing, Zhou Weiguo's wife. She once served as a cook in the canteen, but later because the canteen was placed under the management of the Logistics Department, she joined the Logistics Department. Zhu Tian vaguely remembered this person. At the beginning, she was in charge of base 30
Meals for many people.
If there is any difference between her now and before, it is probably her belly...
"Long time no see." Zhu Tian smiled and looked at her bulging belly with some surprise: "How many months has it been?"
"It's been three months." Speaking of the child in her belly, her face was filled with a happy smile.
"It's been three months... This guy Zhou Weiguo is almost going to be a father and he still doesn't say a word to me." Zhu Tian scolded with a smile.
"You are the marshal, how dare I bother you with such a trivial matter." Fan Xiaoqing said humbly.
Zhu Tian was stunned for a moment, but soon came out of his daze and smiled at her.
makes sense......
After a pause, Zhu Tian then said: "Pay more attention to your health, and... say hello to Lao Zhou for me."
"Yes, definitely." Fan Xiaoqing smiled and said goodbye to Zhu Tian.
For a leader, it is undoubtedly valuable to be able to win the awe of his subordinates. The distance caused by the gap in awe is inevitable. After all, except for Chow Tai Fook, who was a bandit, the people he promoted were nothing.
He is good at exploiting sycophants.
In other words, do I still need a bitch who can flatter me?
Zhu Tian sneered at this idea that suddenly popped up in his mind. No matter how many people there were, it would seem a bit boring.
Are you missing friends? Or good buddies?
Zhu Tian fell into silence.
The formation not far away has begun to move. Soldiers holding rifles boarded the truck in batches and said their final goodbyes to their families at the door of the vehicle.
At this moment, he caught a glimpse of a sleeping baby in a woman's arms.
The confused sleeping face and the mother's happy smile were like a picture scroll, deeply imprinted in Zhu Tian's eyes.
It was that smile that gave him some comfort.
After smiling, Zhu Tian turned around and walked away.
