372: Chapter 371: The Problem of Expenditure Exceeding Inco 372: Chapter 371: The Problem of Expenditure Exceeding Inco While enjoying his current phase of aimlessly wandering in cat form, Lu Zixun was able to get in touch with Geng Xiyuan.
Yun Yu imdiately recognized Lu Zixun’s identity.
Wearing the communicator around his neck, Lu Zixun’s gaze fell upon Yun Yu and he nodded, “Yeah, it’s .
Can you tell where that bunch of people is located?”
After listening to the detailed account from Yun Yu, Lu Zixun roughly understood what kind of organization this was.
This organization called Redemption claid to foster talents for the future prosperity of Demon Country, engaging in such activities.
In Lu Zixun’s opinion, Redemption’s vision was far too shortsighted.
However, it was precisely because of their shortsightedness that Lu Zixun realized the severity of the issue.
They had only considered how to accommodate the Demon Clan with tribes and had failed to address those without tribes, which was a critical oversight.
If soone with determination gathered these demons, it couldbeco a force not to be underestimated.
Admittedly, Redemption had done so, but their approach was misguided.
At best, they were but a small shrimp, incapable of stirring any significant waves.
Yun Yu and Lu Zixun sat in the room without uttering a word.
Lu Zixun was deep in thought, and Yun Yu didn’t dare to initiate any conversation.
It wasn’t until Geng Xiyuan knocked on the door that Yun Yu hurriedly got up to answer it.
“Sister-in-law…”
Geng Xiyuan had barely voiced a word when Lu Zixun glared at him, “What nonsense are you spouting?
This is Yun Yu.
Later, have her go to the logistics departnt.”
“Oh.”
Geng Xiyuan shrank his neck, aware he had misunderstood, and sheepishly shifted the topic, “Brother Xun, where are those with crooked ideas?”
“They are in this area, with distinct characteristics, so it’s easy to find them.”
After a pause, Lu Zixun pondered for a mont, “Previously, we only considered external threats and neglected the internal issues within Demon Country.
As it turns out, the internal threats are the greatest.
Redemption, this organization—”
Mid-sentence, Lu Zixun fell silent.
Knowing that Lu Zixun was deep in thought, Geng Xiyuan quietly waited for him.
“Eliminate everyone involved in this organization,” said Lu Zixun emotionlessly.
“Later, I’ll have En Shuo take over the organization.”
At those words, Geng Xiyuan’s eyes lit up as he looked at Lu Zixun, “Brother Xun, do you an to act both openly and covertly?”
“Yes, that’s right.”
With narrowed eyes and the corners of his mouth slightly lifted, Lu Zixun added, “Then these demons without tribes will also have a place to go, while we can also restrain…
certain individuals who feel superior and like to ddle.”
After Lu Zixun and the others had left, Yun Yu, who was packing her things to go to the logistics departnt, felt like everything that happened today was like a dream.
Finding a cat that turns out to be Lord Xun on the roadside—who would believe such a thing?
“Brother Xun, I’m here.”
Xiao Enshuo, leading a group, ca over and smiled while greeting Lu Zixun.
“Mm, the matter I discussed with you on the communicator, rember it well.”
Lu Zixun nodded slightly and cautioned Xiao Enshuo, “Make sure not to give yourself away and let the schers see through you.”
“Alright, Brother Xun,” Xiao Enshuo replied, looking at Lu Zixun:
“Brother Xun, when can I return?
I still want to be by your side.”
Lu Zixun leaped onto Xiao Enshuo’s shoulder and raised a paw to pat his head, “So many brothers want to go, but they can’t yet.
Are you playing coy here?”
“Heh heh.”
Xiao Enshuo rubbed the spot where Lu Zixun had patted and chuckled.
After the Law Enforcent Team led by Geng Xiyuan and Xiao Enshuo had left, Lu Zixun lay on a soft chair, unwilling to move for a long ti.
He suddenly felt as if he was the source of all problems—wherever he went, issues would arise.
It would be better to stay put in the office.
“Knock knock knock.”
“Co in.”
Tang Qinglan, holding a stack of docunts, walked in and stood in front of the desk looking at Lu Zixun, “I heard from Xiyuan that you’re having a young lady report for duty tomorrow.
Don’t tell you’ve taken a fancy to her?”
Speechless, Lu Zixun put down the docunts he was working on and looked up at Tang Qinglan, “Instead of being so concerned about my personal life, why don’t you tell what you’re here for?”
“Figures you’d be interested in her,” she sighed, shaking her head.
Tang Qinglan put the docunts on the desk, and her expression turned serious in an instant, “Lately, Demon Country’s expenditures have been enormous, and we’re showing signs of spending more than our inco.”
Lu Zixun browsed the logistics report and frowned, “Why are expenses so high?
What is it all being spent on?”
Tang Qinglan subtly nodded toward another docunt, signaling Lu Zixun to examine that one.
Most of it was spent on resolving food issues.
However, seeing the amount of Crimson Coins spent on food purchases made Lu Zixun feel a pang of pain.
Currently, Demon Country had not yet begun to develop agriculture.
Even if they did, it wouldn’t address the imdiate issue, and they would need to purchase from Zone 12.
But purchasing food seed to be a consequence of Zone 12 deliberately inflating prices so that two-thirds of the inco from selling Spiritual Pattern Branches was ultimately spent on food.
Lu Zixun sighed deeply after setting down the report.
It was a long road ahead, indeed.
“Under the na of the logistics departnt, put out a request at the task hall to search for food—finding half of what Demon Country needs would alleviate our financial deficit,”
Lu Zixun continued after a pause, “Also, speed up the purification of Spiritual Pattern Branches.
We must not slow down our developnt.”
Tang Qinglan nodded, “Got it.
There’s also the matter of the pest extermination contest organizer from Zone 12.
They want to et with the person in charge of Demon Country.
Who should go for this?”
“It’s ti.”
Lu Zixun thought to himself, his gaze flickering.
He had been wondering when the Human Gathering Place, which must be aware of Demon Country’s establishnt, would send soone for communication.
Without any hesitation, Lu Zixun said, “Send Ge Changming.”
“Huh?”
Tang Qinglan looked confusedly at Lu Zixun, “Why Ge Changming?
Shouldn’t it be you?”
“The one who established Demon Country was Ge Changming.”
With a light comnt, Tang Qinglan instantly understood and nodded briefly, “Alright, I get it.”
The purpose of the pest extermination contest remained unclear, and it seed Lu Zixun would have to wait for Ge Changming’s return to make a decision.
Unfortunately, because Gu Beihan was in Sha Fei, Lu Zixun wished he could accompany Ge Changming to Zone 12 himself.
Perhaps then he could uncover even more.
…
As the day turned to dusk, a busy Lu Zixun left the makeshift office, and the skies had already darkened.
It looked like Crimson Land was in for a pouring rain.
