A lot of things happened in the next 2 months , as Ethan and Rudra seriously discussed about the direction in which the guild needed to grow and a lot of changes were made to the guild structure in these two months.
The Elites had evolved from being just a guild anymore and they were a brand now , a household na for everyone in Japan who played Oga , and naturally the most sought after guild that newbies wanted to join. Especially after the valuation of the guild rivalled the valuation of grey international.
The Elites were now one of the largest valued group in Japan , having an incredible networth . Making Rudra the second richest guy in Japan after Ethan Grey .
Not that Rudra cared about it , but his word carried much more weight in the country now , as even the governnt would go out of its way to accomodate this guild.
Many fake guilds with similar nas like , Westbrooke Elites , Purplehaze Elites and even Real Elites started to pop up , as the commoners just could not resist the urge of calling themselves an elite.
However the biggest change that happened in these two months was the decision to go public in a month.
Rudra wanted to quickly fortify the region he was incharge of , and for that he needed capital , and 20 trillion dollars worth of that . Making extrely ambitious infrastructure projects and massive army recruitnt projects , Rudra wanted to push and make the most of the 10 months he still had in improving the guild.
Making massive roadways , having patrol stations , restaurant and lodging at every 20 killoters to make travel easy and safe. To connect every single village and town under his control to the capital of Purplehaze city.
Rudra also wanted to make 2 additional forts like fort Magma , one at the border of Hazelgroove kingdom and Aquahose Kingdom , and the second only 120 kms away at the eastermost tip of where Nineclouds kingdom and Hazelgroove kingdom started their border at.
Rudra absolutely wanted to eliminate the possibility of being cornered at multiple Battlefronts in the future , hence wanted to eliminate the possibility of that happening by making these two massive forts.
This roadway and fort developnt needed nearly 6 trillion dollars of money. While the reconstruction of Purplehaze city needed a trillion dollars , as Rudra planned on completely changing the city's layout.
With the inner city as the centre , Rudra wanted to eliminate the disctrict system , dividing the entire city into 4 sectors instead. Residential sector , entertainnt sector , comrcial sector and industrial sector.
About 50% of the city fell under the residential sector , while the rest made up the other 50%. With the mage tower , royal library and other buildings being in the inner city and the teleportation array being in the comrcial sector.
About 6 trillion more was going to be spent on military recruitnt and training , and wages of this massive military , as a Rudra wanted a minimum of 20 million tier 2 level 110 or higher soldiers within the next 8 months.
Finally 7 trillion dollars worth of welfare sche was announced by Rudra for all the citizens that were under him , which covered everything from healthcare to building parks and sanitation , to providing subsidies on grain and cotton.
This was a releif asure as well as a token of his goodwill to the citizens and also an attempt to mask the heavy 22% tax-rate he announced alongside this economic asures.
And as expected the citizens too awed by the short term gains of the massive economic sche did not object to the massive tax levied upon them.
While putting in the mathematics , these 7 trillion would be recouped within 1 year from taxes by Rudra.
Out of the 20 trillion dollars he needed to implent all these asures, 10 were being funded by Ethan Grey while Rudra had about 3 trillion worth of liquid assets to be used at discretion in terms of gold holdings and profit from the Elite lifestyle store sales.
The rest 7 trillion , Rudra was going to raise by public funding , as he and Ethan Grey would both dilute 2.5% of their share of the guild to liquidate it and list it as IPO on the stock-exchange.
Although the book value of the elites was nearly 40 trillion dollars , there was no way their stock was going to trade at book value , with Ethan expecting a grey market premium of 3.35 tis the book value . aning nearly 138 trillion dollar valuation .
Rudra took this chance to also create a housing sche and completely eliminate slums from Purplehaze city , as he wanted to make the city the way he liked.
Wide streets , big houses and less congestion. As the streets are lined with trees and the walls have creepers climbing on them.
A representation of what a French town would look in the early 1900's is how Rudra wanted to build his city. While he took the royal residence for himself.
Inside the royal palace which was now Rudra's personal residence , Rudra could not help but wonder how he should redecorate , but his mind always went to things like , he would let Ruby decide about how she would like to redocorate when he brings her here.
Rudra had not forgotten Ruby , but with him becoming a Duke , he was very close to fulfilling his promise to her. Rudra wanted to build strength quickly and launch a conquest on Nineclouds kingdom and Aquahose Kingdom and slowly expand his territory untill he beca a king.
Once he beca a king , Rudra would finally have the qualifications to ask for Ruby's hand in marriage and make her his queen . Then and only then would he be a man worthy of her in his eyes , as she deserved soone like that.
Rudra set a one year ti limit for himself , as he did not want Ruby to wait any longer . The mont he would build enough strength Rudra wanted to go on a spree of conquests to further expand his land.
The last change that Rudra brought was to the guild recruitnt system , as the Elites academy was doubled in size , producing a batch of 60,000 graduates every 3 months , making a total of 240,000 graduates by the end of the year being added to the guildforce.
Slowly but surely the guild was expanding and shaping into a proper superpower , from the asely 300 mbers it once was. As now even the worlds top powers had the elites in their list as soone to be respected within the ga.
Rudra felt proud of his accomplishnts in this life as his hunger for more was rekindled . Having tasted success he did not want to stop just here , as if before today the dream to beco the strongest guild master seed like a pipedream and a faraway notion , it was now sothing he could actually achieve and wanted to at all costs.
