The full name of the Waste Scavengers Alliance is the Waste Pickers Discovery Foundation, and its organization is not profitable to operate fund projects, but in fact, its funds are still operating, and the group that operates the funds is the Spark Foundation.

To some extent, this foundation is a product of a pat on the head, and when the four young people felt the difficulty of discovering Izumo and were lamenting that it would be difficult to change the status quo of human existence in their lifetime, it was the whim of Ms. Ryuiya who finally formed this foundation that stimulates individual exploration with funds, but does not engage in profit-making itself.

Funding is needed for the operation of an ever-larger coalition, and it is also needed to stimulate the enthusiasm of waste pickers for Green Island and relics, Nürburgring. Inst was born into a chaebol and understood the value of capital even if he was not here, and this purely idealized foundation was destined to not be able to sustain itself for a long time.

Their abandonment of the reward fund is spontaneous, but their enthusiasm for advocating this kind of behavior will only accelerate the decline of this nascent organization, but if it is not promoted, how long can the foundation be supported by the income of only four people?

So Inst used a set of bullshit economic theories to convince his comrades-in-arms who didn't know how to operate money at all, and then found his childhood friend Bedi. Gruet manages the fund.

In IC30, a small company called Spark Transport was unveiled in the Lion City in a low-key manner, and 35 years later, Spark Transport became the Spark Consortium, and the Scavenger Alliance became like this. Grue is still the president of the Foundation, with the only difference being that what was originally kept by Inst alone has become a secret known to all the Great Scavengers.

The transition from secret to insider is not just a matter of words. In the Inst era, Gruet had no say in the affairs of the waste pickers, and now the president's opinion is very important. Grue became the fifth scavenger in the Coalition.

It was because of his persistence that the Foundation moved its registration from Izumo to Matsubara five years ago and split the funding account, which at the time seemed redundant and now pays off handsomely for the Alliance.

It is true that the independence of the branch has caused a huge loss of the Alliance's financial reserves, but the Global Human Alliance is also unable to directly erase the legitimacy of the Foundation by procedural operations, let alone completely seize the Alliance's assets with a single decree.

It was because of this prophetic operation that the first thing Supal did when he entered the lighthouse was to give the old friend a hard hug.

"Don't hug it, you can't bear it." Grue has been a big housekeeper for the scavengers for 35 years, and he is in his 60s this year, and he is incapable of being a non-martial artist, and he really can't bear Supal's hug.

"Gotta hug it." Saying this, Supal still let go of his hand, this hug was in gratitude, but looking at the old friend's flushed face and rapid breathing, he was also afraid of holding out three long and two short, "If it wasn't for five years ago, ......"

"It has nothing to do with the illness five years ago." Gruet unexpectedly interrupted him, "It's all over 60 people, you think everyone is like you?" ”

Supal looked back in surprise at his old friend's gaze, Grue didn't hide it, he looked at Jill standing behind Park Tianhye, it was a big scavenger-level meeting, and she was the only attendee in the room who didn't meet this qualification.

"Ms. Jill, we're in a meeting." Supar pulled down his face.

"Okay." Laura. Jill stood up from behind Park Tianhye, unfolded his notebook and sat down on a chair in the corner, looking like he was about to take notes of the meeting.

"This is a Big Picker level meeting." Supal didn't care about Park Tianhui's face on the side, even though this was a scavenger at the same level as him, and it was the first time the two had met.

"I'm Ms. Park's secretary, and you can rest assured, I understand that I don't have a say, just some basic meeting summaries for Ms. Park." Jill retracted his bangs and smiled.

"I'm afraid you still don't understand." Supal waved his hand, and the door to the conference room was blown open by the wind, "Scavengers are not bureaucrats, and they don't need secretaries. In my judgment, you are Ms. Park's deputy, just like Chise is to Okita, so you should go to your office, especially when the chief officer is in a meeting. ”

"Lord Supal is right, Laura, go and do your thing." Jill wanted to refute, but Park Tianhui took a stand in front of her with a resolute attitude.

This gesture bordered on insult, and Jill glanced deeply at Park Tianhui, got up cleanly, bowed, and left the room, and took the door of the conference room with him.

"So, can you give me an explanation, Lord Supal?" Park Tianhui walked to the back of her seat and touched the back of her chair to look at the old man. Because the person in charge of Izumo, who has been in charge for a long time, has a bit more aura of being in a high position on her body, and at this time, she exudes without reservation, "We are meeting for the first time, and I believe that your rude behavior just now is not aimed at me." ”

Supal shrugged, his same searching gaze on Grue.

Gruet knew what he was asking, and he invited everyone to take a seat, looking unhurried: "Ms. Park, that's exactly what I meant. ”

"You doubt her?" Park Tianhui did not know how familiar Supal was with the Alliance, but he did not dare to ignore Grue's opinion, the old man who had contributed more to the Alliance than anyone else and had already proved his wisdom with his actions.

"There is nothing to doubt." The old man waved his hand, "The Scavengers Alliance is not a political force, and even those who have other intentions to join in cannot be called spies and traitors. In addition, I asked Okita to investigate her, and there was no evidence that she was too closely connected to other forces. ”

"And you're still letting me chase her away?" Supal was so angry that he blew his beard and glared, and Gruet had tried his best to wink, and he thought that this silver scavenger named Jill was the eye of the Alliance.

"Instinct it." The old man said lightly, "You all know that I am not a smart person, and I trust my instincts more in doing things, and I am like this when I run a consortium and give you advice." Five years ago, my instinct made me insist on adjusting the registration place and splitting the account, and my instinct just now told me that it was better not to let the lady hear about what I was going to talk about later. ”

"Your intuition...... I believe. Park Tianhui smiled wryly, since she didn't suspect her, there was no need to argue for her friend anymore, "Since Lola is gone, let's talk about business." ”

"Hurry up, you do." Supal agreed with Park Tianhui's words, and the atmosphere was a little tense by Grue, even if it was a bit out of place to catch up, it was better to talk about business, "Tell me, when are you going to give up Izumo?" ”

"We're not going to give up on Izumo." Okita interface, "The alliance has already split, and if Izumo is abandoned again, I'm afraid that the history of scavengers will come to an end." ”

"So you're going to confront Qingwei and that fourth-order Fanor head-on? Absurd! Supal slapped the table, "This is their territory, the Global Human Alliance represents the government, you have no intention of disbanding the organization or evacuating Izumo, do you plan to let the entire alliance accompany you in your rebellion?" ”

"Izumo was established by a few teachers, and it is a symbol of all waste pickers, if we give up because of the oppression of the world, how can we let the waste pickers continue to have faith!" Okita retorted loudly.

"That's why you're going to label the Waste Pickers Alliance as an illegal organization?" Supal stood up, "I don't think you understand what the Scavengers Alliance is!" ”

"She's faith! It's a great organization that makes us dedicate our lives! Okita also stood up, looking at Supar angrily, and Andira on the side couldn't hold it back.

"She's a Foundation!" Supal glared angrily, "People of faith don't need this title, what they really need are ordinary scavengers who value the benefits of the foundation more, and the purpose of Inst to establish this foundation is to increase the benefits of exploration to the same level as risks, and use the benefits to attract more people to participate in the exploration of the sand sea." It doesn't matter where the Alliance's headquarters are, it's the people who follow this philosophy to run the Foundation and expand its influence. ”

The more the old man spoke, the more angry he became, jumped on the table and grabbed Okita by the collar: "Don't you understand why the governments of all forces maintain support and restraint for an organization like the Scavengers Alliance, which has gathered huge force? Do you understand what impact your confrontation against the territorial government will have on the entire alliance? If you don't understand this war, no government will be willing to support waste pickers to continue to expand their influence in the future! ”

Andy, Park Tianhui and Okita who was lifted in mid-air by Supalti collectively lost their voices, and Andy suddenly understood why the Nürburgring back then. Inst was murdered by the Global Human Alliance, and only Yanagi Iwago took minimal revenge in his personal capacity, and the entire alliance did not have a reason to go to war with the Global Human Alliance because of this, even if at that time, with the appeal of the two teachers, the entire alliance could definitely be brought together to become a force that changed the outcome of the First Remnant War.

As leaders who have grown up as the alliance has been on track, they have indeed overlooked the core reasons why local governments have long supported the expansion of the Waste Pickers' Alliance.

For politics, the beliefs and ideals of the scavengers have no value, and the vast assets and influence of the Foundation are not valuable, there is only one real reason, they have no organizational power for the scavengers under their banner, which is an organization that exists for exploration, and once she shows the ability to resist, the result is ......

"With the war, the Scavengers Alliance has really come to an end, and no government will accept us anymore, either we will become one of the many Green Island forces, or we will disappear and become history. Either way, the scavenger's mission is over. ”

Grue made a final conclusion with a sad face, as one of the founders of the Scavengers Alliance, he was well aware of this result, but unfortunately he was powerless to change the minds of those young people before Supal's arrival, he was not a warrior, this was the biggest gap between them.

"So what are we going to do......" Andy looked so distraught that he didn't even notice that Supal had let go of Okita and returned to his seat.

"We were lucky. Before I came, I forbade the scavengers in Huaxia to respond to the rally, and it happened that the Maori girl did the same thing, plus those independent branches, by chance, your intention to resist is not obvious, and the situation has taken a turn for the better. The old man stroked his beard, "Now organize the organization to move out immediately, Matsubara and Solomon move together, and the scavengers who responded are just using it as coolies, and we need to move the large library and patent center out before Fanol blockades Izumo." Supal looked at Gruet, "Old man, you also need to transfer the assets of the Spark as soon as possible, it is best to go to Maori, where the economy is better." It doesn't matter if the Global Human Alliance doesn't welcome us, Huaxia does, and I told Wang Xun that we can erect a new beacon in Songyuan. ”

Okita and Andy's eyes lit up again, they hadn't ruined the scavengers with their own judgment.

Only Park Tianhye's face did not improve, and just when they were gradually seeing hope, Jill, who was invited out of the venue, informed her of a major event.

"There's a message from Jill." Park Tianhui sent a message from his screen to everyone in the room, "The Maori people have arrived, and they say that the alliance closed the orbit from Izumo to Solomon not long ago, and Xu Jin ...... Not allowed to come out. ”
