moving city, ark

"I understand."

After hearing Kelsey's answer, the smile on the princess's face seemed even brighter.

"But it's nice to see Kelsey care about me so much."

"..."

Kelsey sighed, "It's only right for me to be concerned about your safety. Do you have any plans for the future? I can find someone to show you around on this ship."

"Um……"

The princess looked around a lot, and suddenly remembered something, "Speaking of which, how is the operation of the Tower of Babel now?"

Although being another major shareholder, Luo Yi would still receive a dividend anyway, and Miss Huang, who neither intervened in management nor distributed money, simply ignored it.

"This is last month's report."

Kelsey skillfully called up a form on the terminal beside her.

After flipping through it casually, the expression on the face of the princess seemed to gradually become a little subtle.

The sales volume of inhibin is 20 billion sticks, with a total price of 200 billion Longmen coins.After deducting the cost and the share given to Rhine Life, the net profit is still 120 billion Longmen coins.

In addition, there is also the reward that the Tower of Babel usually receives from the entrustment. After deducting the share for the operators, there are only about several million Longmen coins left. Compared with the previous big head, the number is not worth mentioning, but fill After entering the daily expenses of the Tower of Babel, there are not many vacancies left.

In other words, if calculated according to the share, she can actually share about 60 billion Longmen coins...

And that's only one month.

It’s no wonder that the current facilities on the Tower of Babel look more high-end than the other, and they don’t look like the old antiques dug out of the ground at all. Is it because the funds are too sufficient? !

Did she...shouldn't have said that...?

"What's the matter, is there a problem?"

Seeing the expression on Theresa's face, Kelsey asked a little strangely.

"No, it's nothing... I'll go out first, Kelsey, just do your own thing and leave me alone."

Looking at the back of the princess who seemed to be full of entanglements, Kelsey responded somewhat inexplicably.

"it is good……"

On the other side, in an unused cabin, Luo Yi was rubbing Ifrit's head fiercely under Amiya's worried gaze.

Damn it, if he didn't react fast enough, maybe he would really be set on fire.He could feel the heat coming through the fabric.

That set of skillful ignition and flicking, this unlucky kid has practiced it before, right? !

The sneak attack was not successful, and instead, he was brought up in front of all the attendants with his tail up. Ifrit didn't look discouraged at all. Instead, he seemed satisfied with his embarrassing look, and was holding his hand' slightly ' grimaced at him.

... Gan.

Glancing at the other side, who was suppressing a smile and pretending to be nonchalant, Keluxie stopped the movement of his hands angrily, and rearranged the unlucky child by the way.

Just when he was about to say something, the door of the cabin suddenly opened, and a female voice came in first.

"Is Luo Yi here?"

Appearing in front of the few people in the cabin was a blood demon woman who was not tall but had snow-white long hair and blood-red pupils. After seeing him, her eyes seemed to light up.

"Warfarin? Why are you looking for Luo Yi?"

Carusel asked with a strange look on her face.

"Huh? Lucille, you're here too."

Warfarin replied casually, dragged in a cart full of medical equipment from behind, and explained, "I was passing by here just now, and Dr. Kelsey asked me to come over and do it for Mr. Luo Yi." a physical examination."

"I don't think I need to check..."

While complaining, Luo Yi stretched out his hand to pull the cart behind the Gorefiend lady. After all, she was about 1.6 meters tall, and she looked quite strenuous.

"Thanks."

Warfarin thanked him, and then turned her head to operate skillfully, "I'm not in charge of these things. The medical equipment I bring is the best. Dr. Kelsey said, wait until Mr. Luo Yi you When your kidneys fail, you have to rely on these devices to save your life."

"—????"

Chapter 160 Fermentation

Posted Feb 2 at 1:10.

"... Let me calculate for you the loss of the Ark this month.

Not counting Ark's investment in Kazdale, because the production base and industrial park that have been built are gone, and the entire industrial chain needs to be re-established. This alone is not a small expense.

But in reality, it is impossible for any company to retain that much liquidity.

Even if Ark's profitability is strong, just busy building new production lines and finding temporary parts suppliers is probably enough for them to burn out.

Zero's shipments have not seen significant changes yet, but it is estimated that it is only relying on the previous inventory. After another month or two, it is estimated that it will see a cliff-like decline.

At that time, this is another huge loss.

Then, according to the salary of workers in Kazdale before Ark, compared with the salary in Longmen, the cost is estimated to be more than doubled at least.

Finally, and most importantly, Ark was originally in an important period of high-speed development, and suddenly suffered such an impact, it is already good if the development does not go backwards, and it is basically impossible to think about it in the short term.

This part of the loss is simply difficult to estimate.

Calculated in this way, the tens of billions of losses mentioned in the news before, I estimate that this month alone may double. "

"Is that an exaggeration? Doesn't Ark also have a large industrial area in Longmen?"

"But Ark's territory in Kazdale is bigger, and it also has a whole high-tech industrial park attached.

The last time Ark organized the media and some Internet personalities to visit, it contained the core technology of Ark. If it was leaked out, the loss would probably be doubled again. The host didn’t mention this.

Someone had already analyzed that the situation in Kazdel was not suitable for investment. There must be their reasons or news channels for so many capital tycoons to stay in such a place.As a result, Boss Luo plunged in when he saw such a suitable place.

Tsk tsk, still too young and energetic.Compared with those veteran entrepreneurs, Boss Luo still has a lot to learn.If you fall a few more times, you will learn to be good. "

"?

The host obviously just read some messy comments and analyzes and began to think that he knew it well and wanted to show his presence.

Ark's core production line has always been placed in Longmen. Although Longmen's salary is relatively high, there are more knowledgeable people than Kazdale's place. Operating a high-tech production line has obvious advantages.

In Kazdale’s production line, most of them are mobile phone shells, screens, buttons and other parts that don’t require too much technical content. Drones are similar to X-1, and even if they temporarily find downstream manufacturers to supply them, it’s only cost. It's not as low as its own production, the most important thing is the industrial park.

But Ark's technology encryption work has been doing very well. Even if it is not good, it will not be a big deal to destroy all the things in the industrial park, and the possibility of technology leakage is not much at all.

Moreover, other departments of the Ark, such as the headquarters building of the network department, are located in Longmen, and Stardust Kazdel also made a package, and they were hardly affected.

Ark's loss this time is certain, but it is definitely not as high as mentioned above. "

"..."

Kazdel.

It has been a month since that gray start of the new year.

The city is still in a state of blockade. Judging from this situation, it is very likely that it will last until the end of this war.

This time the New Year is colder than in the past, and it may also be because of insufficient supplies that it is difficult to light the stove for a long time.

The situation of the nobles on the battlefield outside the city is not very good. The team of Miss Princess is scattered in various places in Kazdel, never fighting them head-on.The whole war was dragged into a long attrition from the very beginning.

This is not only what Tracys doesn't want to see, the nobles in the city are also unwilling to accept it. After all, as the side of the team, their manpower and assets are also forced to join the team of Tracys, and then continue to be consumed.

Thus, the nobles of the noble council, who were not restrained by the princess sitting on the speaker's seat, turned their eyes to the interior of this huge city where they were located.

They failed to get anything of value from the estate left by the Ark.The production lines in those ordinary factories are not high-tech, and what really matters is the labor force.

The drones left by the drone platform are all equipped with technical encryption, and forcibly dismantled can only get a bunch of indistinguishable mixtures.

As a result, the committee began to act as a proxy to exercise the powers of the Speaker.

All Drone Stations are shut down, Drone Clinics, Drone Fire Stations, Drone Police Stations, everyone in the city is forced to go to the hospitals opened by nobles, Fire Department and Police Department are filled A large number of personnel under the nobles, and increased taxes on the civilians on the grounds of wartime emergencies.

The situation in the entire city became as tense as a powder keg in just one month.Only one fuse is needed to completely detonate this huge explosive barrel.

Of course Tracy knew how unstable this situation was, but he also faced a problem similar to Miss Queen's.

He can force the nobles to stand in line with a force that is clearly beyond the imperial daughter's side, but he cannot rely on force to force these nobles to fully obey his orders.At least not halfway through this war.

Once he showed that intention, the most likely reaction of these stimulated nobles was to huddle together like stimulated hedgehogs to protect their own interests.

This is how they have always dealt with the rulers, and only in the face of this matter, all of these nobles are extremely smart and united.Because only in this way can they obtain sufficient benefits for the entire noble class.

And once that happens, the outcome of this war may be even more distant.

Tracys can only hope that this war will end as soon as possible, while the vast majority of civilians in the city are praying for Her Royal Highness to win this war as soon as possible.

This is their only hope now.

On the construction vacant lot at the edge of the industrial area, there are still residential buildings with already established frames. According to the original plan announced by Ark, these buildings should have been half built by this time.By the end of the month, many of them will be living in their dream homes.

However, this wish now is just like the cold wind whistling in the long winter, and it is unknown when it will come to an end.

Chapter 160 Three, Hedley, and the Terrified Ines

"...Hedley, and Ines, right?"

"……Yes."

The red-haired man dressed as a mercenary nodded.

Although he tried his best to be calm, Luo Yi still saw the clue and couldn't help smiling.

"Don't be nervous, no one here will do anything to you."

"This is."

Having said that, Hedley's eyes still drifted involuntarily to Luo Yi, the princess with a gentle smile on her face.

Luo Yi, on the other hand, picked up the exquisite white porcelain teapot on the table without seeing it, and poured the black tea with the hot air and mellow smell into the teacup, while continuing to say, "Would you like a cup of black tea? This is the tea made by the imperial daughter herself, if you miss this time, you may never have another chance in the future."

"—!"

"Don't dare!"

Hedley lowered his head suddenly.

"Well, that's a pity."

Luo Yi shrugged, then raised the teacup in his hand and took a sip.

He put down his teacup, and continued to look at the two of them: "Your team is very famous, Hedley, Ines, speaking of it, there is also a 'W'..."

"That guy changed his code name a few months ago, the 'W' was reversed and became an 'M', in order to avoid the trouble of a dangerous person coming to him, or someone who couldn't tell who was looking for him on the head."

Hedley took the initiative to explain, "But these are not important anymore, after all, he was sacrificed in a previous mission."

"Uh,"

Luo Yi blinked.As expected of an unscrupulous mercenary, the code name can be changed as soon as it is said.

It seemed that he disliked him for dragging the topic too far, and Kelsey on the other side directly took over the topic.

"You have the strength to match your reputation. We have confirmed this in previous commissions, so we plan to entrust you with the follow-up missions as well."

"We don't have a choice, do we."

Hedley reacted calmly when he said this, as did Kelsey.

Both parties are very clear that when Hedley and the others completed their first mission for the Tower of Babel, they were already on their side.

"After this entrustment is over, you can choose to stay or not. We will not force you to work for us. Of course, the entrustment reward will never be owed to you."

Kelly said calmly.
