Steel steam and flame

The manufacturing site is an independent area to the west of the Webley family headquarters, occupying almost all the land there. Compared with other tall buildings in the Webley family, the nature of the manufacturing facility makes the houses there appear not to be very high. Seven or eight floors are already their limit.

It was a very deserted area. Ye Jielin did not take the family's internal vehicle to go there. When she arrived there, it was already close to noon.

Walking straight towards an entrance of the manufacturing plant, the words "R\u0026D Department" are embedded with rivets. She inserted her ID card into the card slot and waited for about two or three minutes before the huge metal door in front of her finally opened a gap that only allowed her to pass through. Behind the metal door, a man in work clothes was already waiting there, holding a thick stack of documents in his hand. The scent of ink could be smelled in the air.

The man nodded: "Hello, Miss Ye Jielin. You can call me Felik. In the next period of time, I will be responsible for the application approved by the family."

"Thank you." Ye Jielin replied, and the metal door behind her closed. The channel to communicate with the outside world seems to be blocked here. Because of the air circulation system, the temperature in the R\u0026D department is actually very mild. But in a space entirely wrapped in metal, all that is actually felt is the coldness inherent in steel.

"Have things been repaired? I don't remember it being a big shock."

"Not yet." Felik replied apologetically, knowing what Ye Jielin was asking about. Something made from a special soft metal and the smelting of some unusually expensive material. As a high-level defensive item in the Webley family, it can withstand the explosive power of the center of aerial bombs, as well as many large-caliber platinum bullets, and effectively reduce part of the impact. But it was designed and manufactured by Webley Arms Company and not for sale. From very early on, it was only circulated within the family.

"Due to the changes in the internal situation of the empire, the company has received a lot more orders. Some customers' requirements require re-development and design, and the schedule is already full. Halfway through, it is expected that in another three weeks, Ye Jielin Miss, you can get the silver bag back. Although the damage is not big, the attack of standard aerial bombs cannot cause devastating damage. But if you want to repair it perfectly, many details cannot be ignored. After all, it is the final use When it comes to protecting yourself, you can’t make any mistakes.”

While talking, under the leadership of Felik, the two came to a spacious conference room. Ye Jielin pulled up the chair and sat down. Felik separated half of the documents in his hand with a smile and pushed them in front of Ye Jielin.

"Miss Ye Jielin, with the assistance of other departments in the family, they calculated the value of the resources that you have not used since you first entered the family's training plan. Of course, we all have the nature of businessmen in our bodies. , your resource can be regarded as a kind of savings, and after multiplying by the corresponding interest, the final specific value is very impressive."

The document in front of you can be regarded as the most common product introduction book. In the Webley family, most of the rules and management models that operate follow the nature of transactions between merchants. The flow of funds on many projects between different departments also follows this rule. In Felic's eyes, Ye Jielin is now their client, the one with a lot of money.

The first page is the information about some of Ye Jielin's own "assets" that can be used. It is full of detailed entries. The lower right corner is what Secretary-General Gabri said she "should get." .

The document is followed by a specific price list. After the family passes the application, she can purchase some high-end manufacturing items after she is lifted from the ban.

Surgery has always been the most important point among the four forces. In order to prevent family members from overly relying on the advantages brought by weapons, or in other words, after possessing a large number of powerful weapons, they gradually become pathogenic bacteria on the family's body. Or the most troublesome problem for the Webley family, the reselling of goods by insiders. According to different status levels, as the largest arms company in the empire, Webley has specially formulated a set of corresponding rules to address the above issues to prevent similar things from happening frequently.

Ye Jielin used her father's power to submit an application to the family to put aside the restrictions of status level, so as to overcome this set of rules and obtain some more powerful weapons or mechanical bodies. Although Gabriel is unlikable, Ye Jielin also admitted that those words did have great reference value.

The table was covered with empty wine bottles, and the mellow fragrance filled the entire spacious hall. Adelaide drank the remaining wine in the glass in one gulp. After putting down the glass, he looked back at the thick survey information in his hand from the first page. From the time he arrived at the industrial city by airship until he finally returned to his family, all the information that could be obtained through manpower and money was transformed into type and printed in this document.

She had read it several times in detail, but Adelaide was still afraid that she had missed something. Halfway through, an unusually clear knock on the door echoed in the hall. Immediately, the closed wooden door was opened, and the dim light from outside followed the figure of a man into the hall.

"It's raining outside. It's probably the first rain in Manoma's short summer." The man looked tired. He put his umbrella on the umbrella stand at the door and patted his body to remove any contamination from it. Not many drops of water fell, and then he looked at Adelaide at the table at the end of the hall, "I'm really sorry that I came back now. Even though Astus has the name, that place is actually an area supervised by the Three Primary Colors Group. And the matter has already been in the hands of the regional empire management agency. If you want to obtain some information, you must follow the formal process. It is a boring job that takes a lot of time. In addition, it also takes a lot of time to find traces of Sotagang. But the result was not very good. After the other party got the super vapor compression device, they immediately transported it away. The route was special, and in a city with many railway lines, we eventually lost it."

"Thank you, Captain Welch." Adelaide closed the document, pushed a small space on the table, and put it down. "How is the investigation going? When we rushed over that night, the group of people who led away The identity of Ovelia’s men?”

"As expected, they should also be Ye Jielin's people." When those groups of people from extreme areas returned to the empire one after another, Welch entered the Ovelia alliance, and as the captain, he managed the alliance. numerous members.

"But I'm not sure." As he spoke, Welch stepped forward and took out a stack of thick photos from the dark gray bag hanging on his body. They were almost all dim and out of focus. But under the limited light, it is still possible to barely see clearly the clothes of the people in the photo, "It is the same as described by those who assisted Miss Ovelia in fighting at that time, they are not special gray and white clothes and a long black windbreaker." The comparison results of weapons and shells came out a week ago. I think you also got the news. They are completely consistent. Even if there are errors, but in the words of those technicians - they are all within a very reasonable range. Both are from unknown factories. same batch of products."
