Because of some not-so-good memories of Sakura Port, the new Caesar class, although still built at Titan Heavy Industries' Sakura Port branch in the Republic of Florins, has changed the way of on-site pick-up and is delivered at MR248.

MR248 and MR249 are both neutral countries, and the main factor in choosing neutrality is that their own strength is too weak, and they seem to have an entire star system like the Republic of Florin, but in fact they are only a single resident star, and there are no special mineral stars, not to mention industrial stars, industry is very dependent on asteroid belts with no special products, and such industrial strength cannot establish an L2 project at all, so Florin can be regarded as a medium-sized country in a single galaxy, and the two of them can only be regarded as small countries.

The neutral countries MR248 and 249 are very dependent on the Florin Republic for transportation, and from the perspective of the path, to get to the Starbridge, both systems must pass through MR246 or 247 transit, in comparison, there is no policy of military expansion, but the xenophobic Florin Republic is obviously better to deal with than the Blue Pirates, even if it also has to pay a "safety toll", at least there is no risk of being robbed after multiple charges.

The delivery process in MR248 was very efficient, and both the delivery ship and the receiver had a hyperspace information integrated system, but the Caesar-class warships could not enter the port for trading, and the factory was cautious to avoid the incident of falsifying the signal, and still asked Pan Wen to use the trading area demarcated by the neutral zone patrol fleet, and spent an additional few hundred stars for this.

The Gold returned to the Thermer Star D21 Steel Hull Harbor with the new ship and began to handle chores.

The total of eight frigates captured are relatively old-fashioned products, and if they enter the fleet, the cost of personnel and maintenance is enough to drink a pot, and they all have to be disposed of, and the steel-hulled port obviously does not have enough environment to become a trading center in the surrounding area, and it is impossible to quickly digest the eight frigates, so it needs to be sold.

The D21 development company has its own large sales team under the careful construction of Kareda, and Pan Wen, as a shareholder, has no intention of taking advantage of it, and handed over the ship to them at the cost of 20% of sales. 20%, which sounds like an astronomical amount, is actually not a high proportion in cross-galaxy consignment, not to mention that Pan Wen's ship has a problem, which will lead to a further narrowing of the scope of sales objects, in order to get a commission, such as replacing software systems, special algorithms, altering the gunwale, etc., expenses will also be borne by the sales team. There is a huge team that sells ships by the way when selling energy rods, and the efficiency and final selling price are higher than Pan Wen's own, and part of the sales profits will be returned in the form of shareholder dividends, and Pan Wen has nothing to lose at all. Judging from this incident, it is really convenient to have a reliable team.

The new Caesar-class was named the Diamond, and the missing crew was selected by Doris and a few old cadets, and it was selected from the pre-selected list from the financial group Huke, even if it was slightly inferior in quality, it should have an average elite level, and there was no need for Pan Wen to worry about it.

The only thing Pan Wen had to do when he returned to the Steel-Shell Harbor was to find out the small black house in the Steel-Shell Harbor and select the second host and guard robot for the Diamond, which had already made slight changes in the structure.

…… That's right, the diamond number of more than 110,000 star coins doesn't even include the price of these additional parts, but fortunately, these things are not expensive, two or three thousand star coins can be done.

There is a simple rudimentary residential administrative system in the port, but due to the population, some departments only have a name at all, and some personnel have the title of head of a large number of departments part-time, and they still have nothing to do every day. After looking at the so-called administrative center and service center, which are now only offices and not reception halls, Pan Wen had to run to Kareda to get a pass from the security department and run for help.

The security department has a special monitoring department, and there are some small departments in it, Pan Wen only has to find the person in charge of video surveillance, and with the help of this guy, he quickly locates his target - an egg robot that is used as an ornament in the corner of a restaurant run by someone.

Pan Wen did not show any joy at finding his target in the surveillance department, but continued to toss the boys for several hours before leaving disappointed. With the help of the egg robot, it was already two days before the small black house was entered.

The small black house belongs to a parallel space in the second world, and people who don't have the corresponding permissions can't even see the route light on the ground after the egg robot has passed the verification. However, due to the realistic characteristics of the second world, the egg robot still has the possibility of being dismantled, although it can't be dismantled to reveal any secrets, but it is a trouble to find the egg robot again, Pan Wen didn't plan to find an egg every time he used the small black house.

Now there are only two shipyards in the Steel Shell Harbor, and the little black house did not build another factory out of thin air, but let Pan Wen, the awakened person who first used the small black house of the steel shell port, designate that Scar Dragon's work ethic had left a good impression on Pan Wen in Segeis, so he simply designated his shipyard.

……

Not long after Pan Wen came out of the small black house to order, some conversations took place in the special dock of the Steel-hulled Port Kareda Command Ship.

In the first conference room of the command ship, except for Pan Wen and the mushroom head in the rotation, all the shareholders were there, obviously holding a meeting.

"Isn't his fleet terrifying to all of you? I think Mr. Pan Van is really not suitable for D21 Development Company, and it will be difficult for us to complete the business transformation with him. "The red-haired female pirate is now dressed in a space clerk's outfit, and seems to be a little less imposing.

In this kind of meeting with more than one major shareholder, the small shareholders are usually busy flirting with their female secretaries, and they don't have time to listen to the speeches of the great immortals, so the only ones who can respond to the female pirates are Zhou Sen and Karuida.

Zhou Sen, who is usually reckless, did not rush to make a statement, and set his sights on Kareda with the female pirate.

"It's impossible not to be afraid, but I'm even more afraid of Lord Panwen's 'enemy'." Kareda paused before explaining to the two major shareholders, "If you have paid attention to the financial group that Lord Pan Wen left in the Steel Shell Harbor, you will know that his fleet logistics expenses have gone far beyond the scope of normal 'business' and entered an area that is difficult for us ordinary people to understand. ”

"Haha, if the eldest lady is an ordinary person, what are we?" Zhou Sen smiled a little dryly.

"Does Lord Zhou Sen know why the mercenaries of the Empire and the Federation are besieging the Sea of Death?" Kareda seems to call everyone an adult.

Zhou Sen shook his head dryly: "I'm sorry to disappoint you, I haven't had time to study it yet." ”

Unexpectedly, Kareda's response surprised the two even more: "I don't know, I've read a lot of reviews recently and feel that no conclusions are reliable, and I can't think of why an unofficial army would attack an area with a bad environment and no resources, so I, like you, are just ordinary people who don't know the truth." ”

"Miss, please don't change the subject."

After hearing Kareda's words, Zhou Sen lowered his head and pondered, but Fiolian seemed to want to hold on to something.

Kareda frowned a little closer to each other, she suddenly found that it was not a good choice to choose Fiorian at the beginning, she was pragmatic, and the company's big and small things helped a lot, but now she cares too much about money, and in this universe, there is not enough strength and how much money is just for others.

"Fiolian, you haven't understood what kind of person Lord Pan Wen is, and you haven't thought about how the world works. Master Pan Wen once said something to me. Kareda paused, tried to soothe his voice a little and said, "'As long as you have enough strength and want, just go and get it.'" 'Throw him out of the shareholders' meeting, have you thought about what will happen?' Is the security fleet of the other shareholders of the company and the company itself sufficient? If the company's armed strength was sufficient, would you still be so hostile to him? ”

Listening to Kareda's words, Zhou Sen's fists clenched with his head lowered, and Fiolian, who had not left D21 for some time, suddenly remembered what a fierce and vicious image the rumored Pan Wen was, because he had only seen his harmless side in the steel hulle harbor recently, and almost forgot about it. Do you want to assassinate? But let's not mention that Pan Wen's bodyguards will not leave wherever he goes, even if he can succeed, it will inevitably lead to the disintegration of the company, and when the time comes, it will be divided into several small companies and tilted in close proximity, where can the product still have a cost advantage.

Seeing that the two major shareholders were bluffed, Kareda breathed a sigh of relief in her heart, and did not give the two of them time to buffer, and immediately got to the point:

"I called everyone here this time in the hope that through a plan to increase the company's armed forces, the future shareholder dividend will be reduced by 10 percent, which will be used to strengthen the capacity of our self-produced warships and the size of the security fleet."

"I'm against it!" Although she had just been bluffed, Fiolian immediately reacted and expressed her opinion, and set her eyes on Zhou Sen.

At this shareholders' meeting, if Fiorian could not win Zhou Sen's support, it would be impossible to oppose success.

Zhou Sen felt Fiolian's helplessness, raised his head, scratched his head with his hand, and said, "Instead, encourage shareholders to increase their own private strength, and our self-produced energy can be discounted more." ”

He didn't object directly, but it meant something about the same, if the size of the company's fleet was expanded, it would be in the best interest of Kareda, who had the most shares, and Kareda's relationship with the man was a bit strange, which might make the balance even more out of control.

Kareda, who had been in the big family for a long time, understood Zhou Sen's thoughts in a blink of an eye, but after a short period of consideration, she did not insist on her proposal, after all, her proposal was also stimulated by Pan Wen's new boat, and she made it out in a hurry, and some things were still a little inconsiderate. For example, what is the size of Pan Wen's man's fleet? If the company's security fleet grows and still does not provide absolute security, it will only hurt everyone's interests.

Another thing that made Khareda change her mind temporarily was her own understanding of Pan Wen, in her eyes, he didn't like to spend too much thought on other aspects except for the "enemy" who didn't know if he would hit Hemer, and if the company's fleet expanded rapidly and couldn't find a suitable reason to turn his face, what was originally nothing became a big thing, then it was called wrong.

"In this way, instead increase the budget by one to two percent to strengthen the company's ship research and development capabilities, and in the future, if we can find enough customers, the shipyard's patent transfer fees can recover enough funds, and at the same time allow shareholders to buy ships from local shipyards in a patent-free way." Energy is the heart of the company, and it cannot be released casually, otherwise the tragedy of shareholders selling energy privately to steal their own business is inevitable.

Once a new ship of the licensed class is exempted from the patent fee, the purchase cost will drop by nearly 30%, which is a huge discount, and compared with the copycat ship, the reliability of the licensed ship will be much higher, and all products will have an experimental basis rather than relying on PP to come up with. Thanks to the technical raw materials provided by Pan Wen, the company has sufficient technical reserves for the development of monitoring and development technology.

"I agree." Zhou Sen was very satisfied with this result and didn't want to be bad by Fiorian again.

Seeing that there were major shareholders voting, under the reminder of the secretary, the minority shareholders expressed their agreement. Fiorian didn't turn the corner for some reason, and finally abstained.

Since the minority shareholders actually occupy 41% of the company's total equity, any major shareholder can force the resolution, but Karuida is still very rational and said that all shareholders will vote on the proposal after making a detailed plan.
