In the early morning in the cloud area, there is always a whitening mist.

I don't know if this water vapor is the clouds on the horizon, or the morning fog that has spread in the cloud area, in short, it makes people moisten the water vapor from the inside out.

With Su Mu's return yesterday with great fanfare, now the entire federation knows about Su Mu's movements, and they are all paying close attention to the princess's mansion where Su Mu is still living now.

Su Mu has made such great achievements for the Federation, naturally everyone wants to get close to Su Mu immediately.

And now the will of the top level of the federation is actually so straightforward, obviously cultivating Su Mu as the heir of the federation, so everyone also wants to get an invitation to the banquet when Su Mu returns.

However, what is helpless is that on the second day after Su Mu returned, Su Mu did not invite anyone to the banquet, but even changed the date of the Fuzhong tea party that was supposed to be held as usual.

However, for Su Mu's behavior, others could only sigh with admiration, and they didn't even have a reason to break into the door without permission.

Because this day is the internal assembly of Su Mu Group.

After leaving the capital of the Federation for such a long time, the first thing Su Mu had to do when he returned to the Federation was to grasp the internal situation as soon as possible.

In this way, others really dare not come to visit at will.

......

The first carriage to enter the princess's residence was naturally the business wizard under Su Mu's command...... Stanley, who is also a federal spy and the commercial director under Su Mu.

With the good cooperation between Su Mu's family and the trade covenant, the alchemy workshop under Su Mu's command now not only completely monopolizes the supply of alchemy products in Skywo City, but even spreads to the entire Federation.

With Su Mu's good reputation, the workshop under the Mystery Society, which has Su Mu's brand, is naturally invincible and invades the traditional alchemy industry.

Today, the scale of the alchemy workshop has long since changed from a single production workshop at the beginning to a large-scale factory covering a large area.

And on this basis, Stanley is still extremely rational, but the part that provides alchemy luxury goods is set up in the cloud area, and the part that produces a large number of universal alchemy products has been established in the old city under the clouds.

In less than half a year, the alchemy workshop didn't know how many gold coins it had earned for Su Mu.

So much so that during the period of Su Mu's departure, Stanley, as Su Mu's business representative, had already become a hot celebrity in the cloud area.

However, seeing Stanley's arrival, Su Mu didn't bother to listen to his report on the business situation first.

After all, Su Mu actually knew all the things on the data from the secret letters he kept sending to him.

At this time, Su Mu gave priority to introducing Tina to Stanley, and turned to Stanley, and commanded very casually and even without hesitation:

"I was going to build a restaurant, and Tina was the person I thought would be the best fit to make a good restaurant. Although when it comes to running the restaurant, you can fully trust Tina, you just need to provide her with money and connections. But I have some other requirements for the restaurant itself. ”

When Su Mu said this, Stanley had already vaguely sensed something in his heart.

But Su Mu obviously didn't stop talking, and still said so bluntly:

"Just like the significance of Yunbin Tiangong to the Federal Parliament, the restaurant is also a very good place to socialize. So I hope that this restaurant will also become another place for federal private transactions in the future. I'm all up to you on this point, and it's up to you to figure out how to build it up. ”

When Stanley heard this, his face, which was already a little obscene, instantly dried up like a bitter melon.

Su Mu undoubtedly threw another difficult problem to Stanley, or rather, to the federal government behind Stanley...... Whether Su Mu should have this kind of power, and how he will have the kind of power he wants, these are obviously things that Stanley needs to return to the people behind him.

"I said boss...... You're a *naked squeezing of your subordinates!"

Stanley's expression was mournful, and he expressed the soul wail of being a dual-attribute employee.

......

But Stanley's complaints, Su Mu naturally didn't pay attention to them at all. Since Stanley came here as a spy, Su Mu naturally wouldn't be too gentle and kind to him.

And at the same time that Su Mu introduced Tina, the rest of the Su Mu Group, which was inextricably linked with Su Mu, had already come to Su Mu's current residence.

Rookies in the academy such as Jiang Lan and Mao Nier naturally represent Su Mu's influence in the academy, while upper-class elites such as Lu Xi and Avina show Su Mu's influence in the traditional elites, and as for the circle of nobles that Su Tong and Su Can came into contact with, it also vaguely expands Su Mu's appeal to the powerful.

Even the business figures led by Stanley, plus Tina, who will be relied on in the future, will definitely have a good say in the federal business circle in the future.

Judging from this alone, Su Mu seems to have not only gained a huge amount of power, but even in a very short period of time, he has become the largest individual group in the Cloud District.

"But that's clearly not enough. ”

In the spacious and comfortable reception room, the warm fireplace was dispelling the last trace of cold before the beginning of spring, but there was still some calm brewing in Su Mu's voice.

Su Mu is in his own internal circle, and there is no doubt that he does not pay attention to the distinction between classes, and now everyone is sitting around Su Mu, looking at Su Mu's speech with some doubts.

"All of our power today is, in the final analysis, still based on the federal polity. Although, in essence, there was no reason for anyone present to rebel against the Federation. But since we want to have our own approach, we can't do everything according to the plan above our heads. ”

"The necessary degree of freedom is the prerequisite for a group to grow reasonably and even bring great benefits to the Federation. If we can't do that, we're just a copy of another model of government!"

Su Mu's words, even Stanley agreed.

The reason why the current Speaker of the Federal Assembly Wyatt chose to vigorously support Su Mu is naturally that he wants Su Mu to break free from his current shackles and lead the Federation into a new era.

"So we have to get more resources, and we have to spread our influence to more corners. ”

Su Mu's words have undoubtedly set the tone of today's rally.

The next thing to discuss is obviously to be more specific...... How to expand the influence of Su Mu's forces, and more deeply absorb the talents of the Federation.

......

"As for the academy, I will be acting as an acting tutor in the future, so I don't need to make much arrangements in this regard. And as a punishment for my reward, I will not be able to leave the cloud area of Skywo City at will for the next half a year, so I will naturally be responsible for this aspect. ”

Because Su Mu has already made a choice emotionally, there is actually one most important hidden element that Su Mu said just now that has not been stated.

Su Mu's mentor in the academy is the thirteenth seat of the current academy, Lu Xi, and Lu Xi's former mentor is the current college dean Deng Shunla.

In other words, the current department of the academy is almost led by Su Mu's department.

Whether it is the dean of the academy at the top, or Lu Xi as a representative of the reformists, or even Su Mu, who is now shaped as an idol of the Federation.

At least among the students of the Magic Academy, Su Mu's first department obviously already has absolute dominance.

However, everyone in the audience also understood this in their hearts, and no one continued to extend the topic, but Avina had continued:

"Regarding the creation of public opinion, "Cloud Weekly" naturally does not talk nonsense now. Although "Frontiers of Magic" can't be too subjective, as long as the topic always revolves around the innovative initiatives and your innovative magic, it will still subtly promote you. ”

In this small circle in front of Su Mu, the atmosphere of discussion was extremely good.

Everyone was very pragmatic about their own information, without any superfluous nonsense, and there was no cumbersome meeting mode.

As soon as Avina's words fell, the question of public opinion had already reached the result.

And Stanley, as the general manager of business, also continued in a timely manner:

"As for the Alchemy Workshop, as long as the Trade Pact doesn't break with us for the time being, we will still be able to maintain the current pace of expansion. ”

"The elites who can be admitted to the Northern Academy of Magic are only a few spellcasters after all. And most of the spellcasters, they don't have the opportunity to get the favor of the big family, and it is difficult for them to join the Esoteric Society with their own strength. Therefore, the alchemy workshop under the Arcane Society is naturally another way for them to continue to be promoted. ”

"However, the only thing worth noting is that although we have absolute dominance in the daily alchemy market, we are completely blank in terms of more high-end alchemy, such as alchemy turbines, Qi power limousines, and so on. If we want to continue to expand the market and hard power, this aspect must be what we will be involved in. ”

Stanley's proposal was something that Su Mu also had a slight headache.

As Stanley said, the current dominance of the daily alchemy market is actually entirely due to the fact that the trade covenant provided a good sales channel for Su Mu's side.

But relying on what others have built is not how stable it is, after all.

Only by being competitive in absolute core technology can we always stand tall in the market.

"In this regard, you will prepare a fund as a backup for the time being, and as for the specific way of involvement, I am afraid that I need to understand it in more detail before making a decision. ”

Stanley naturally nodded when he heard this, as for how to enter the high-end alchemy market, even a business wizard like Stanley was helpless, so he could only wait for Su Mu to give advice.

So far, all the aspects that Su Mu's side was originally involved in have determined the route of expansion in an instant.

And the only thing that needs to be explored again seems to be the extension of new forces.

"So...... Any new proposals?"

However, with Su Mu's last question, including Su Tong, an extremely intelligent person, he was also a little confused about how else he could use it.

At the end of the day, everyone is also limited to their own identity and status.

For those places that cannot be reached by one's own sight, even if everyone in the room is the most elite existence of this era, they still can't immediately find a new solution.

But at this time, while everyone was silent, a voice that surprised Su Mu and everyone was softly said a new possibility.

The person who spoke at this time was Tina, who Su Mu had just introduced to everyone, and she seemed to be a little out of place with today's discussion.

However, it is precisely because of Tina's travels and experiences, as well as the lower class of the Federation to which she originally belongs, that Tina can be more keen, and see those places that Su Mu and others can't see:

"If you look at the origins of those people, maybe you can accommodate those gray forces hidden in the shadow of the Federation, which really extends your ears and eyes to every corner of the Federation...... A more convenient means!"
