Early the next morning, Xiang Ningxuan summoned Long Xiangjun and the senior management of Taichu Group to discuss how to solve the financial crisis.

Bai Yingqiong spread her hands and said: "I can't help it anyway, if there is a way, I would have proposed it a long time ago." ”

Cheng Ling, the chief financial officer, is a woman in her thirties who always has a poker face, with slender eyes and thin lips, as if everyone owes her money.

She sneered: "Solving the financial crisis is nothing more than two directions: open source and throttling. Open source, you go and figure it out, I'm in charge of throttling, as long as someone stops issuing budget add-on requests! ”

"Uh......" Xiang Ningxuan touched his nose, and as if he didn't hear what Cheng Ling said, he cleared his throat and said: "Lao Chu, Lao Li, tell me, is there any way to open source?" ”

Chu Xiongtian and Li Chenglan looked at each other, both of them are soldiers, soldiers, spending less money can be regarded as contributing to the finances, how can there be a way to open source?

"Is there any way for others to open source?"

Yang Yuezhou, secretary of the party group of Taichu Group, said: "Either we should go all out to develop the economy now, and the army construction should be slowed down first. That's what our country did decades ago, the army gave way to economic construction, and then developed the army when the economy developed. ”

"No, no, no." Li Chenglan was the first to object, "Nowadays, there are countless people across the country who are living in dire straits, and their lives are threatened by various monsters at any time. As republicans, we must ensure security before we can consider economic development. This is our duty. ”

It's really not negotiable. The country is not stable, how can you only care about developing the economy by yourself?

Cheng Ling said: "I think the top priority now is to develop the basic economy, and the investment in scientific research is too high, which is a bit ambitious. I propose a 50% cut in research spending. Wait for the economy to improve and then double it back. ”

"No way!" Xiang Ningxuan and Liu Yingxuan slapped the table at the same time.

Xiang Ningxuan motioned to Liu Yingxuan with his eyes.

Liu Yingxuan was not frightened, got up and said: "You want to develop the economy, is there enough energy?" Is there enough manpower? Is the technology sufficient? Science and technology are the primary productive forces and also the primary combat effectiveness, and our current research can increase production efficiency tenfold in the future. Can you transfer 50% of the investment to me, and we will make up ten times as much in the future! ”

Bai Yingqiong rolled her eyes and said, "If you are not afraid of the people rising up to rebel, you can cut people's livelihood expenses." ”

“……”

A group of executives quarreled together for a long time, and nothing came of it.

Xiang Ningxuan could only pat the table and said, "Lao Tzu is asking you to discuss how to open source, not how to throttle." The existing investment budget can't be cut by a dime, let's think of a way to see if we can increase income? ”

Seeing that the group of people didn't speak, Xiang Ningxuan gritted his teeth and said, "Lao Tzu only thought of one way to rob it!" ”

The others couldn't help but look at each other, and Chu Xiongtian said: "Now, other places are as poor as dogs, what can we rob?" It's good if you don't post it upside down, how can you increase your income? ”

Xiang Ningxuan said: "So I called everyone over to discuss and see who we should rob and what to rob?" ”

Bai Yingqiong said: "What is most lacking now is energy, all kinds of energy, and the more food the better." In addition, there are various minerals and consumables. ”

Xiang Ningxuan bared his teeth and said, "Do you want slaves who do rough work and heavy work?" ”

Bai Yingqiong was stunned for a moment, and said: "Now that there are not enough energy and machinery, the more slaves who do rough and heavy work, the better, so that the labor gap can be alleviated and our people will be given holidays." But slaves are better to feed themselves. ”

Chu Xiongtian thought for a moment and said, "When you say that, I think of a goal. He took a map, pointed to a mountain range to the north, and said, "There's a dark elf dungeon here, and the cavemen they raise are good slaves, hard-working, and eat underground bryophytes and fungi, which don't conflict with our recipes. ”

"In addition, there is a lake over here where mutated crayfish are overflowing, and I don't know if this thing can be eaten after mutation? If you can eat it, let's go get a ticket, and it should be no problem to catch a few hundred tons in this lake. ”

Xiang Ningxuan clapped his hands and said, "Can people eat it first, let the Taichu Chaos Laboratory analyze it." Let's fight first, and then let's give it to the slaves first. Let's see if there is a huge amount of food that looks like it can be eaten, and let's get it first, as long as you don't poison people on the spot. On the other hand, send out an army to catch slaves and do rough and heavy work for us. ”

"As long as it looks like it's edible," Li Chenglan said...... "I remember something." According to the Second Fleet, since the appearance of Gilnis, Yuhang Bay has become an inner lake, and the sea water in it is gradually desalising, and the water environment is changing drastically. The sea creatures inside are constantly fleeing. The Second Fleet spread its nets between several islands at the mouth of the sea to catch fish, eating seafood until it vomited. A lot of fish that I wasn't sure if I could eat were thrown away. ”

"Yuhang Bay is being desalinated?" Xiang Ningxuan took a closer look at Yuhang Bay on the map, it was now surrounded by the magic capital, Yue Province and Gilneth, leaving only a section of the sea connected to the sea composed of the archipelago where the Second Fleet was stationed.

The sea water outside cannot be entered, and the sea water inside is constantly discharged by the fresh water flowing into the river, and in time it can form a freshwater lake with a water area larger than Zhenze.

With the desalination of the seawater, the original sea clan forces are withdrawing. This large area of water has become a vacuum of power, can you eat it?

So, Xiang Ningxuan said: "Make peace with the Viper Temple as soon as possible, transfer the navy to Yuhang Bay to open up, and occupy all kinds of resources in it first." Remember, quietly enter the village, don't shoot guns. lest the people from the province and the Second Fleet rob us. In addition, by transferring some of the aquarium to Yuhang Bay for food, we will be able to catch more fish from Zhenze and replenish food. ”

After the train of thought was opened, everyone immediately put forward a lot of plans. In short, it is to catch slaves and liberate their laborers, and then find food for slaves that humans dare not eat, as long as they don't eat to death on the spot, as for hidden dangers, mutations, etc., whatever! Slaves anyway.

Perhaps this would be cruel to those aliens. But at this time, the Long Xiang Army and the high-level leaders of the Taichu Group, who were driven crazy by the financial pressure, could manage so much, and used the blood and bones of foreign races to forge our prosperity, and there was no pressure at all.

Li Chenglan stood up and said impassionedly: "Ladies and gentlemen, our republic is a country of etiquette, treating foreign races equally, and those who have returned to us, such as trolls, feathered people, half-orcs, etc., have all lived a happy and beautiful life.

"But there are still many aliens who regard our kindness as weakness! They have usurped our land and slaughtered our people, and their sins are unforgivable! We, as soldiers of the Republic, must destroy all the recalcitrant invaders and make them pay for their crimes! ”

"Good!" Xiang Ningxuan and the other high-level officials stood up and applauded.

In the evening of the same day, a proclamation was circulated throughout the Longxiang Military District, listing several of the ten major crimes of foreign races that refused to accept the incorporation, and calling on the whole army to crusade against the unsubordinate and eliminate harm for the people.
