024 Want a budget? Then go for it!
The year-end presentation can be said to be an extremely boring meeting, after all, this is an information age, and if something goes wrong, it will immediately spread all over the world. Therefore, for the sake of a larger budget, many departments can be said to be extremely exaggerated in their predictions of future problems, and if they do not pay attention to the budget committee, it means that the budget at the beginning of the next year will never be increased, and there may be a possibility that it will be cut.
Look at the one in the audience who is speaking; The environmental sanitation official at the ground headquarters looked like an abstract painting by Picasso, and in his mouth, even if someone inadvertently spit on the street, the effect was enough to sentence the passerby for more than 30 years.
[I think just by virtue of your appearance, it is a kind of destruction of Mead's peace, and it is a crime, but this can be regarded as an indirect score for the Ministry of Justice!] 】
Seeing that both the people on and off the stage covered their mouths, and subconsciously dodged the gaze that was looking at the official, Camillo scolded in his heart; Perhaps, this guy is actually a trust from the Ministry of Justice - in case there are members of the committee who have a good conscience, a little more budget is required to increase the law that it is also a crime to look too ugly
Speaking of which, Kamiyu's plan has been discussed before, and the terms and ideas in the plan are clear, full of foresight for each step, and there is also a lot of room for flexibility.
Although there is a strong sense of competition between the ground headquarters and the General Administration, it is always in opposition to the General Administration. In other words, they will do everything possible to pick the bones in the eggs. However, for such a plan that is completely beneficial to itself, the ground headquarters did not raise any objections for the first time, but only asked some questions in a targeted manner, and after receiving satisfactory answers, they kept silent.
And the General Administration just listens to such a plan, for the General Administration, which has always been lazy, this has nothing to do with them who are always running around in the dimensional sea, as long as the plan is beneficial, they will support it.
Therefore, although the implementation of this plan was not voted on the spot, judging from the attitudes of all parties, it is already a sure thing.
Maybe there was a relationship between the reporters and the reporter shooting on the spot, and although there were disputes in the scene, everyone was more restrained, but Kamiyu always felt that it seemed that a considerable number of people were waiting for something with their eyes closed. At least, the head of the school hasn't wielded his authority yet, but the old god is dozing off, and his attitude is completely different from the one he showed before he came. Such abnormal behavior made him have to be vigilant.
Finally, the hour-long meeting, announced by the Speaker, will be followed by a three-hour intermission.
Kamiyu stretched, got up, and was about to leave
"Kamiyu, give you a 10-minute break and come back in 10 minutes!" The majestic voice of the Minister of Brewmaster came from his ears
"Huh?" Kamiyu looked at the head of the school who closed his eyes and pretended to sleep, and was still sitting firmly with Tarzan in his position.
After looking around, he found that the members of the Magic Sect had hurriedly walked out of the hall except for a few people, and the rest of the students were sitting in their places calmly.
At the same time, the same phenomenon occurred in other departments, and the rest of the people who left looked panicked, as if they were fleeing.
Just as Kamiyu hesitantly walked towards the door of the conference room, he was hugged from behind
"Kamiyu-chan let's go to lunch together!"
There was a familiar voice in my ears, a breath of reassurance in my nose, a soft touch in the back of my head, and a never-forgettable force around my body, which made me feel that I would soon see my father in heaven.
"I'm dying"
"What's not good, what's wrong~~ Mom hasn't felt the touch of Kamiyu-chan for a long time!" Lyndy said this in an excited tone, tightening the strength of her arm
'Grad! ’
There was a crisp thud in Kamiyu's bones
"Ahhh~~" Lindy, who heard the sound, finally stopped moving her arms
"It looks like it's broken"
"Really, Mother should pay more attention from now on, so it's very worrying for Fett and you to live in the world of Naye!" Kamiyu, who was stroking back and forth on his chest and abdomen with his magic power, said angrily
"Yes," Lindy said unconvinced but apologetically perfunctory, and then said energetically
"By the way, how about Kamiyu-chan go to lunch with her mother?"
"I was willing, but the dean only gave me a 10-minute break"
"Oh~~?" Lyndy let out a playful laugh
"Then, Kamiyu-chan, come on~~" Lindy, who left a huge pair of sunglasses and this sentence, quickly disappeared from Kamiyu's sight.
"Huh? So you've been asked to take part in what's next, huh? ”
Just as Kamiyu looked at the sunglasses in his hand suspiciously, Karim also appeared behind him with a playful face.
"Do you know what's going on?"
"Well~~ Originally, it didn't have much to do with our Holy King Church, so I originally decided not to participate, but" Karim looked the diminutive Kamiyu up and down, turned around and ran away.
"Wait for me a few rows behind the room"
“”
"Hey, what the hell is going on?"
Karim, who was sitting next to Kamiyu very ladylikely, had already taken off the military uniform of the Temporal and Space Administration at this moment and changed into a white Saint King Church uniform.
"It's better to look around first," Karim didn't answer Kamiyu's question directly
At this time, Kamiyu realized that the entire venue was much empty, but the atmosphere seemed more solemn and tense. The people in the field were clearly divided into 3 large pieces.
Occupying the middle of the room was a patch of white, the scientific troops led by the Faculty of Magic
To the left is an officer in a dark blue uniform—a member of the General Directorate of the Authority
And the one on the right is naturally the largest percentage of the field of coffee, the members of the ground headquarters
And everyone in the field seemed to be accumulating strength, as if they were about to explode at any moment.
Since the two of them sat in the last row of the middle, and Karim had changed his dark blue military uniform to a white church dress, it didn't look abrupt.
"This meeting is private and informal, and internally it is called the meeting to discuss the Supplementary Budget at the beginning of the year." Karim said to Kamiyu with a look of anticipation that something fun was about to happen.
"Supplemental Budget at the beginning of the year?"
"Yes, unlike the mid-year supplemental budget, the mid-year supplemental budget is made in the middle of the year when new fiscal needs arise. And the budget was revised at the beginning of the year~~" Karim couldn't help but laugh again, and it took a while
"Although the budget is generally reviewed by the budget committee, there is also a fairly free fund, which includes some black income, such as stolen money from the eradication of illegal organizations, funds from the auction of stolen goods and properties. Of course, there are also legitimate incomes, such as the income from the exclusive patents of the Authority, and some inconsequential literary and artistic antiques found after the exploration of ancient ruins.
Don't underestimate this amount! In addition to charitable donations to the community, death benefits and a portion of benefits, this amount of money can amount to about 3% of the Authority's annual tax revenue."
"So the amount has about 8 trillion?" Kamiyu exclaimed after a quick calculation in his mind
"Shh~~" Karim quickly covered Kamiyu's mouth, and after looking around, he found that he had not attracted the attention of others.
"Yes, such a large sum of money does not have to go through the budget committee, so everyone is trying to get as much money as possible for their department in this meeting. Of course, because some small departments are not competitive, they will selectively attach themselves to large departments
That's what you see. Plus it's a private, informal meeting"
"Isn't that almost like sharing the spoils?" Kamiyu broke a gap between Kalim's fingers and interrupted her rudely
"Hehe's right, the metaphor of 'sharing the spoils' is very vivid." Karim chuckled and let Kamiyu go
The mysterious Budget Amendment at the beginning of the year has finally begun
The first step of the procedure; The whispering hall fell silent, and everyone began to sit upright.
Step 2; The Speaker of the meeting made an opening statement
Step 3; Representatives of the Magic Division, the General Bureau, and the Ground Headquarters made their own competition reports in turn. At the same time, the other two parties who did not report would make loud noises and carry out covert attacks (among them, Lieutenant General Brewster had dodged 10 leather shoes, 14 mobile phones, and 28 mineral water bottles at the time of the report). According to statistics after the meeting, a total of more than 40 officers walked out of the venue barefoot. )
Step 4; The conflict escalated and began to scold. (At this moment, all the people of high status have put aside their usual reserves, and unscrupulously use vulgar language to attack each other.) All in all, most of them are willing to have some kind of improper and illegal forced physical relationship with the other party's immediate female relatives, and also say that this is entirely because they have a compassionate mind and do not dislike the other party's old ugly)
Step 5; The contradictions escalated again, and everyone began to provoke each other.
Lieutenant General Brewster is old, but his temper is extremely hot, and he wants to rush up and fight with people regardless of the obstacles! Kamiyu is among them (dear mother is scolded like this, of course everyone will be angry. )
At the same time, the crowd in the field kept repeating
"You dare to touch me!"
"What if Lao Tzu moves you?"
"You dare to touch me!"
"What if Lao Tzu moves you?"
"You dare to touch me!"
"What if Lao Tzu moves you?"
There is such a philosophical dialogue as 'the white horse or the dark horse'.
Step 6; I finally can't help but do it!
The Speaker said lazily on the podium: There are still 40 minutes left before the end of the intermission of the presentation.
Everyone suddenly realized [yes~~ Time is running out! 】
Since the statute was not allowed to bring magic guides inside, everyone waved their fists and began to fight in groups
And Kamiyu, after beating the officer who scolded him, protected Karim and hid in a corner of the venue
"Ahra, I didn't expect you to be so gentlemanly." Faced with this scene, Karim did not panic, but very leisurely let Kamiyu protect him and laughed at the same time
"As a man, it is natural to protect women, otherwise my mother will be angry!" Kamiyu didn't notice Karim's teasing and replied very seriously
"I suddenly felt that it was really prescient to schedule this so-called year-end supplemental budget in the presentation!" Kamiyu looked at the people who were beating each other in the field in a cold sweat
Don't look at the professors of the Department of Magic, they are all middle-aged and elderly, and the number is the smallest, but they are all magicians above AAA. And although the number of people in the General Bureau is only a little more than that of the Department of Magic, the combat power is not low - most of the people in the General Bureau are from magicians. On the other hand, most of the officials in the Ground Headquarters are from civilian backgrounds, and although they have also been trained, how can they maintain the situation with only a large number of people compared to the General Bureau and the Department of Magic.
From a distance, Kamiyu saw Lieutenant General Brewster, who stood out from the crowd, and a set of ordinary military body punches were so good that three or five middle-aged officers could not get close.
"Why do you say that?"
"Because, the statement will not allow the use of magicians, so even if you have a large group of high-level magicians or knights, it will not cause too much damage.
The chairs and tables in the conference room are alloy and are firmly welded to the floor, so that no one can use the chairs and tables as weapons. Again"
Look at the disposable paper cups and empty mineral water bottles flying everywhere in the air
"Do you think these paper cups and tiny plastic bottles can hurt people?" As Kamiyu smiled and said this, a paper cup swiped past her ear and nailed to the wall behind her.
"Not necessarily!" Karim seemed very happy to see Kamiyu deflated.
[Damn, someone actually used magic to harden the paper cup, I don't know that it's dangerous! ] 】
Regardless of whether he was friend or foe, the angry Kamiyu firmly remembered the self-defense skills taught by Lindy as a child, and regardless of Karim's surprised look behind him, everyone who came close would first kick the opponent in the crotch, and then punch the opponent in the eye circle when he bent over in pain
As the bell rang at the venue, it heralded the end of the revised budget.
The number of people in the field who have not fainted is only 5 floors of the total number, and the remaining members of the Magic Sect account for 3 floors of the total part, the General Bureau accounts for 4 floors of the total, and the Ground Headquarters occupies 3 floors.
Therefore, it was decided that the allocation of the supplementary budget should be carried out in accordance with 3.4.3
"Hahaha~~~ Kamiyu, it seems that you will have to exercise more in the future! However, this year's share is 5% more than in previous years, and we will have to work hard next year! With a refreshing look on his face, Brewster let out a cheerful laugh, patted Kamiyu on the shoulder, and strode forward.
[Why would there be such a ridiculous way to decide to supplement the budget, and in the future, can I not participate!] Kamiyu carefully hid in the crowd and walked out of the building with his head down.
"For some reason, most of the Authority executives who attend the meeting walk out of the headquarters building on the ground level with a pair of huge sunglasses on their faces at the end of the annual briefing, and it seems that this year is no exception, and everyone is silent about this phenomenon, which has now become one of the seven incredible events in the Mead world."
On TV, with the host's commentary, the camera kept close-up back and forth between the senior generals, among which Kamiyu also had a pair of sunglasses on his face that could almost cover half of his face, while Karim, who was walking beside him, covered his mouth with one hand and couldn't stop smiling

The annual supplementary budget exists in reality
The value of the currency in this article is the reference to the US dollar, and although the exchange rate of the yen is used in the original text, I still feel that this is not conducive to economic development.
PS; In order to review, I even have to get up before 8 o'clock on Sunday.... OTL
