Gunfire, Punk and Necromancer

"The work is done, let's go out and talk." Zhuang Xuteng pointed to the top of his head and said, "I feel uncomfortable being illuminated by this lamp."

"You're right. This is not the place to talk business. There are too many bugs eavesdropping."

"Huh? What you said before was not serious?"

"What I talked about before was a big deal." Zhuang Teng smiled and said, "I'm going to put in a good word for you in front of my parents later. They have been on the farm all their lives and don't know much about the situation of mercenaries. Let me explain a few more words to you. , you will be less blamed."

Zhuang Xuteng sighed and said, "It would be great if I can be praised anytime..."

Many parents are generous with their praise, but Zhuang Xuteng's parents are very picky in this regard and almost only look at academic performance. Maybe they have other evaluation standards in their hearts, but they never say them out. Having passed the age of study, Zhuang Xuteng knew that it would be difficult for him to receive praise from his parents in his life.

On the contrary, Sister Lucy and Brother Dao often praised him, saying that he was very suitable for the mercenary career.

After Zhuang Xuteng cleaned up the No. 7 greenhouse, he collected unhealthy mealworms and took them to soak in medicine for treatment. Just outside the treatment and cultivation room, the two brothers found a few rocks to sit down and began to discuss a million-euro project.

"My research can be completed at any time, and it will inevitably bring about great changes in the times. What this sentence actually means is: the research part has been completed, I control the results, and am looking for more suitable monetization opportunities."

Zhuang Xuteng frowned slightly and asked, "Is your boss unreasonable?"

"I haven't shown any performance so far, but I have to guard against him. I have always shown that I only pay attention to research and family, and have no talent or ability at all, let alone interest in money and management - this is all an act for him to see. "Zhuang Teng said: "Numbers are not difficult for me, but people's hearts are difficult. On the surface, it is difficult for me to treat my parents, which will give him the illusion that he can easily control me."

Zhuang Xuteng commented: "Brother, you are really good at playing."

"This is not fun, but necessary preparation. My research... By the way, I see you bought a car, you know what the car can burn."

"Burn coal! There are seven grades of pulverized coal in passenger cars and freight cars. Oh, if you expand a little bit, there are also batteries that burn. The battery is charged by the shadow, driven by a steam engine, or it can be driven by a whale oil refining burner. There are also some rune cars, they are all antiques, those that burn mana should not be counted, right?"

"From a professional point of view, there are only three types of fossil fuels, electric fuels, and active biofuels that can be used in engines. If a steam engine is used purely, the performance of the car will be very poor. The electric system is indispensable, and it can still Let the car use Yingcong electrical appliances to improve control and comfort. But in nature, there is also dead biofuel, which is petroleum."

Of course Zhuang Xuteng knew about oil. It had huge reserves and would be accompanied by flammable gas when exploited. It could cause a gas explosion if not careful, which was quite dangerous. Oil, a black viscous substance, is inherently in conflict with shadow energy. Zhuang Xuteng used an oil water bed to isolate the shadow slave from detection.

"Near oil, shadow slaves often break down, so no one uses oil - I solved this problem." Zhuang Teng's voice was calm, but the news he threw out was earth-shattering: "After refining, I made oil from oil. I separated light oil that is quite easy to burn, and developed its supporting engine at the same time. I did not need to boil water, but directly used flames and explosions as power to drive the wheels and axles. I named them gasoline and internal combustion engines."

Zhuang Xuteng had no idea just listening to the nouns. He asked: "Can it be better than the steam engine Kajang battery?"

"Humph." Zhuang Teng smiled, waved his hand forward, and said two words: "Crush."

"So confident? I congratulate you in advance." Zhuang Xuteng said briefly: "What do you want to do next?"

"My current company is limited in its business scope, so new products have to come from the new company. My boss is setting up such a company to operate design licenses and manufacture standard products at the same time. This requires a lot of expense, and I want to Buy more shares in this company.”

Zhuang Xuteng scratched his head and asked, "Your boss has no money? Why would you participate in such a good thing?"

"On the one hand, his funds are indeed a bit tight. Now the company has invested a lot of money in research and development, and the output is still in the future, so the current cash flow seems to be stretched. In addition, I am the main developer and the core of the four core people. , without a few nods from us, these designs cannot be legally transferred to the new company. In addition to giving us equity and the opportunity to invest in shares, the contract was signed at the beginning, and he cannot refuse."

"I understand, you want to collect more equity while he is not paying attention. How much are you going to buy? How much will it cost?"

"It's not too much money. With another two million, I can secretly control the shareholding ratio to be equal to the boss." Zhuang Teng said: "He also has some external investors, mainly upstream raw material and parts manufacturing plants. The equity of this company will be relatively dispersed, and the most concentrated one is the boss himself. I want to become the second largest shareholder under him."

"Two million...how much money do I have now, how much do you want?" Zhuang Xuteng thought for a while and said: "Let's do this, I will give you one million first, and the rest will be given to you after a while. You Let’s run it first, okay?”

"no problem."

Zhuang Xuteng agreed with his brother that this investment is mainly for his family. All future profits will be used first to take care of his family and improve their lives, and the rest will be used to continue investing and strengthen Zhuang Teng's position in the company. Simply being a researcher is far less suitable than becoming your own boss. Since Zhuang Teng is also interested in business management, he must support him.

"It's best to slowly surpass the boss in terms of equity. I can better allocate R\u0026D and production operations by taking charge. Boss, just take the money with peace of mind." Zhuang Teng said with a smile: "My dear brother, you can't use it. Soon, all the cars on this road will use my internal combustion engines, and my gasoline will enter thousands of households. Oil is such a good thing, even if the residue is used to pave roads, it is much better than cement."

"If you were that big, you'd be a billionaire, right?"

"Of course! At least! Although it is impossible to become the fifth top company, it will still occupy a very important position in the world. Think about how many vehicles there are in the world and how broad the uses of engines are. This is a change. Things from the world!”

Zhuang Xuteng said with some worry: "The four top companies are all greedy for money, so you should be careful."

"I will fully cooperate with them. The world is too big to make money." Zhuang Teng was very clear-headed. He said: "I don't want to monopolize this knowledge at all. Authorized production is inevitable. The first step is of course to open The market will not refuse cooperation at all. Everyone is together, so that we can make profits more securely. After that, of course, we will continue to research and develop. I still have some good ideas, and I have already developed them."

Work with any company that is willing to cooperate, especially the four major companies, to roll out products and make small profits but quick turnover; at the same time, continue research and development, launch more sophisticated new products, and capture the high-end luxury market. These are the two fists of the new company. Zhuang Teng told his younger brother that the content of his research was confidential, so he should keep it in his mind and don't tell anyone else, including his parents and sister. The source of the money was kept as secret as possible to avoid arousing suspicion from the boss.

The two people completed their discussions in the fields, and they both knew each other's business. At the dinner table back home, both brother and sister spoke well of Zhuang Xuteng, describing the mercenary job as a PCPD supernumerary detective, a just cause of protecting kind people from gangs, and finally dispelled most of their parents' doubts.

"It's just that I think jobs that can produce something are serious jobs." Zhuang Xuteng's father was still a little stubborn in the end, but it was no longer serious.

Zhuang Xuteng finally no longer became the target of criticism. He and his sister also stayed at home for three days, helping to take care of the two elderly people and working in the fields with them. My brother was very busy at work and left early the next morning. He still has "research and development finishing" work to complete. In fact, he is going to operate the company and get involved in the new company.

Although he didn't have much idea about business matters, Zhuang Xuteng knew who understood it and could keep it secret. After he returned to Peicheng, he went to see the owner of the (White) Black Flag Grocery Store. The first question was whether he could keep it strictly confidential.

"There is almost no place in the multiverse that pays more attention to credibility, contracts and confidentiality than I do here." Boss Qian rubbed his hands and said: "I come from other worlds and can buy and sell things from other worlds. I am begging you to keep it a secret... …”

At the beginning, Zhuang Xuteng did not talk about gasoline and internal combustion engines. He only described the new company's business and based its future potential on "assuming that its technology can crush the current generation." After hearing this, Boss Qian thought that the model of this new company was very reasonable. As long as it was well run, the product was strong enough, and the era and environment were right, it would definitely be very promising.

Zhuang Xuteng had an idea and described petroleum extracts and internal combustion engines, and asked if such technology existed in other worlds. Unexpectedly, Boss Qian's face changed drastically, beads of sweat appeared on his forehead, and he murmured: "Damn it, have you finally thought of filling the hole?"

"What trap?" Zhuang Xuteng asked.

"You don't have to beat around the bush. Just hearing about petroleum extraction and generating power by limiting explosions, I already knew what the technology was. Yes, it's common, and with the current level of technology, it's pretty much the best, There is definitely a future. And where there is a future, I, Qian Jing, should be there." Boss Qian said: "If you can let White Flag Grocery Store participate in the new company, in addition to investing a lot of euros, I can give you destiny gold coins as a reward. Intermediary service fee.”
