From cannon fodder to sweeping across thousands of stars.

Chapter 138 Are the Roma + PMC in charge?

After the company gradually took shape, Amber has now become more and more aware of how uncomfortable it is to be understaffed.

Although except for Isabel and the sponsor father Ellenita, the company currently has 25 employees.

But the problem is that all of these people are soldiers, either motorized infantry or mechanics in the maintenance squad.

The two naval officers with the highest academic qualifications and various qualities may be Randall and Tom.

But even so, the two of them can be said to have no understanding of the company's management.

Therefore, all of the newly established Atlas Private Military Company are "field operators", and no one is capable of logistics.

There is no finance, operations, customer service, or even an assistant.

Fortunately, Amber and the others will rarely conduct cross-border operations even if they accept orders. In terms of undertaking tasks, they will only consider personal security and armed action escorts for the time being. Such tasks are relatively not that complicated.

Therefore, key positions such as CM (Country Manager), COP (Country Operations Manager), and PM (Project Manager) can be shouldered by him.

But even so, there is actually a serious shortage of combat personnel.

Counting communications troops and electronic warfare technicians, there are only 16 people who can complete infantry operations.

In this case, the company cannot continue to operate.

So in this context, Amber, who was waiting for the ship to arrive, focused on the Roma people in the Thousand Stars Empire.

Anyway, these Roma can only work in the tertiary industry in the Thousand Stars Empire.

To a certain extent, PMC does actually belong to the service industry, and there is nothing wrong with it.

Of course, considering the special status of the Roma people in the Thousand Stars Empire, Amber decided to talk to the sponsor's father.

The other party is also the second shareholder after all, so the respect that should be paid must still be in place.

"So, you plan to recruit some Roma people to work as back-office workers in your company?"

"Field service is not impossible. In fact, male Roma have great advantages in physical fitness and are very suitable for Marine Corps work."

Because of this incident, Ellenita Yuge, who had already returned to the capital of the Thousand Stars Empire, made a special trip to the manor where Amber and the others stayed - this place was lent to Amber and Isabel by the female elf as the company address.

The headquarters and station of the private military company is an elven manor.

I wouldn't even think about switching to another company.

"Well, your proposal is quite novel. No one has done this before."

"That's why I came here to discuss it with you."

In the meeting room of the manor, Amber made her plan clear while making tea for Ellenita and waiting for her advice.

The elves of the Thousand Stars Empire have the habit of drinking various calming scented teas.

As a company registered in the Thousand Stars Empire, Amber and the others followed the local customs.

"Based on my personal experience, there is really no problem with your approach under the legal framework of the empire. I will also ask the legal affairs department to confirm it later."

Ellenita took the hot tea made by Amber, blew in the hot air and continued:

"But your approach will probably arouse a certain amount of public opinion and attention. If someone adds fuel to the flames, it may be pushed to the forefront."

"Are you talking about the 'Legalist' and 'Conservative' guys?"

Amber put down the tea cup and looked at the female elf.

The egalitarians and conservatives he refers to refer to the two forces within the Thousand Stars Empire.

As can be seen from the name, one party wants to speak out for the Roma people and hopes to stop implicit racial discrimination and allow Roma people to enter other industries besides the service industry.

The other side are the conservatives among the elves. They believe that 'the laws of the ancestors are immutable', so they have been at odds with the liberals. Of course, in addition to these two factions, there is also a third faction with the largest number of people.

Lying down.

Including the Elf Royal Court, more than 50% of the citizens of the Thousand Star Empire actually belong to the "Lying Ping Faction".

In their view, it doesn't matter if things change or remain unchanged.

As for the Roma? The elves don't really care what they think.

"Hey, Mr. Amber, do you know a lot? Now I'm a little doubtful whether you are an elf disguised as a human."

Ellenita crossed her hands on the bridge of her nose and stared at Amber with interest. This action also made her eye-catching part spread out on the table, making it even more eye-catching.

"Yes, I now very much doubt that after your recruitment of Roma people into the company is exposed, these two groups will definitely take the opportunity to make a big fuss."

"Oh, there's nothing I can do, sister, I really can't recruit anyone now."

Amber sighed helplessly and began to complain.

"Although it may be more appropriate for me to continue recruiting some human employees, the problem is that you are too far away from the Federation or the Star Dragon Empire.

If I hire a group of human employees, I have to consider whether they will bring their families with them.

And in the future, I may have to take orders from both the Empire and the Federation, and it won’t be good for me to use people from either side, but the Roma can perfectly avoid this problem and have no entanglements with either side.”

"From what you say, putting aside the risk of public opinion, choosing Roma does seem to be a relatively reliable solution at the moment."

After listening to Amber's complaints, Ellenita also stopped joking and thought seriously.

"So how many people do you plan to hire now?"

As soon as the female elf said these words, Amber, who was sitting opposite her, knew that something was going to happen.

He immediately presented the recruitment plan he had prepared on the holographic projection platform.

“I will not consider more professional positions such as finance and operations for now, I will think of other ways.

Based on the current situation of the company, we will definitely complete one task before taking on the next one, and will not carry out multiple tasks at the same time, so we can only recruit one assistant and one customer service staff for each of these two positions. "

Amber skipped the internal staff section and went directly to the field combat personnel establishment table that he had created in the past few days.

“The main reason is that we need to recruit more people in the field, and there are still too few combat team members under the PMC.

Taking into account personnel rotation and ensuring reserve strength, I hope to directly expand to 200 people, which is enough to deal with medium and low-intensity combat missions in a short period of time. "

Ellenita listened carefully to Amber's plan explanation. The female elf seemed to have no worries at all during this period. In fact, she used her free time every day to learn about the specific operation methods of private military companies.

"There aren't many people recruited in the first batch. In this case, I guess the public opinion won't be as big as we feared. Then go ahead and implement your plan. There's actually no problem here~"

After hearing this, Amber finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"Thank you, the major shareholder, for your support. Originally, I thought it would take more effort to convince you."

Amber picked up the cold scented tea and took a sip, then heard Ellenita say with a smile.

"Haha. In fact, even if you recruit Roma people into the mining company, I will agree to it as long as there is a suitable plan."

"Then the 'ancestral law' of your elves has been broken by me. Do you have any objection?"

"Mr. Amber may not know it yet, but I am also an egalitarian~"
