Rutha Minai didn't know that her call didn't make Lily AI happy. Instead, it brought up unpleasant memories and nightmares.

After the call with lily AI, she had a meeting with the people in the research department. At the end of the meeting, it was close to zero.

When she returned to the office, she didn't have time. The people in the financial department sent several budget reports before they went home, which needed her to confirm overnight.

The etheric foundation is a behemoth in the Arola region. In addition to exploring the mysteries of extreme beasts and extreme caves, they have also penetrated into all aspects of Arola people's life.

Research is extremely expensive, not to mention the study of extreme animals and extreme caves, which can not see any return in the short term.

Aether Foundation's venture capital team is well-known in various regions. They support and invest in many large enterprises. Through the shares, dividends and contacts of these enterprises, aether foundation can fill the black hole of research funds and spare no effort to expand itself.

One of the planning reports they provided today is very special.

"Manaro arena construction plan."

This is the site of the arrora region's own League Conference and competition.

Transforming an entire island to meet the standards for holding league competitions requires several times more money than the construction of ludmai island.

After Kukui proposed to create the Arola Union, the whole Arola region was discussing matters related to the union.

There were many obstructionists and opponents, but lusamina was one of the first people to agree.

When the knock on the door rang out, rosaminai didn't lift her head and said wearily, "come in."

When she saw the visitor, lusaminai frowned: "zaobo? Why, did you say anything at the meeting just now?"

As the director of the research department, zaobo is really dissatisfied with the decision of the meeting just now.

"Our budget was cut by one third in the first half of this year..." zaobo was very unhappy to see what lusaminai marked on the printed manaro arena.

"I think I explained very clearly that the construction of the arena is imperative. Not only do I think so, but most of the veterans of the venture capital group and the ether foundation also agree," lusaminai said.

"I've read the documents of the venture capital team, the repair of the arena, the cost of the establishment of the alliance, and the funding of some island tours. All aspects of money are drawn from the research department," zaobo said angrily.

"It is obviously impossible to complete the manaro arena in the first half of the year. According to the fineness of construction, it is at least a project calculated in years, which means that our research department should always be sucked blood. I disagree!"

This was the first time that zaobo had such a violent emotional outburst in front of lusamina. In the past, his tone was more like trying to please.

Lusa Minai knocked on the table and smiled, "it seems that you are very dissatisfied with my decision?"

"I didn't..."

"Accept your play. Indeed, the device for opening the research hole has entered the final breakthrough stage, and the research department is also trying to prepare the research equipment needed after encountering the research beast. However, I don't think the fund allocated to you is insufficient."

"Zaobo, I've always asked you why many of the funds of your research department are linked to you, and I don't ask where the expenses of the junk inventions you often make come from."

Lusamina yawned and continued.

"Is there a lack of research fees? You know in your heart that you are a smart man and a capable player of the foundation. Don't you need me to point it out?"

There was plenty of air-conditioning in the office, but zaobo's forehead exuded fine sweat.

"I can clearly tell you that investing in the manaro arena is beneficial to the ether foundation."

"The league competition is completely different from the original island tour in Arola. A more systematic competition will attract many trainers to participate."

"The venue of this major event is provided by the etheric Foundation... Do you think the trainers will be very fond of the foundation?"

"I've said enough today. I hope you won't have any strange questions next time. Run in and ask after the meeting. Now, please go out."

When zaobo came out of the office, his back was already wet.

He doesn't like to talk face-to-face with lusamina. This woman gives him too much pressure and can always easily see through his ideas.

It's impossible to ask for funds. I thought that rosaminai had never noticed his little moves, but I didn't expect that others were clear in their heart, but didn't tell.

At the thought of this, zaobo couldn't help shivering.

The cell phone in his pocket rang. When he saw the number on it, zaobo tutted and went to no one before he connected the phone.

Before zaobo said anything, he shouted angrily: "that's what you said. You can get it at will? The spirit of the skeleton team to rob the bamboo has been arrested five people. Now I'm surrounded by the skeleton team and can't go anywhere!"

Speaking later, not just because of anger or fear, the voice was mixed with vibrato.

Zaobo recognized that it was the voice of the entrusted middleman. Just when he wanted to say something, there was a noise at the end of the computer. When there was another voice, it was already a cold female voice.

"Are you the employer?"

Zaobo was silent for a moment and replied, "yes, it seems that the previous thing has been blown away?"

"Failed. The other party is completely different from what you described. It's not a rookie who was slaughtered in a one-on-one battle. You provided the wrong information and let our friends in..."

Zaobo ignored her words, but said faintly, "the entrustment remains the same. I'm still that request. I want them to have no way to stay on that island. No matter what method you use, rob elves or harass them."

"Our friends..."

"The entrusted amount has tripled. They are not your friends anymore."

This time it's the computer's turn to be silent.

"According to the people we visited, that's a cruel man. It's not easy. We have to pay more."

"Four times," said zaobo.

"I want to help our friends get a five times Commission. We'll take more people to help you solve the problem completely."

"Deal." zaobo didn't hesitate.

The woman on the other end of the phone didn't hang up, but asked curiously, "although it's wrong to ask the employer's intention, I still want to know... As far as I know, those people are scholars from other regions. What are you trying to do with them at five times the commission?"

"When it's done, keep your mouth shut and you'll get six times the Commission," zaobo said and hung up.

What's the picture?

The problems of these people are so ridiculous that zaobo disdains to communicate with them.

He doesn't want to be separated by a group of guys from other regions.

This is the key to his continued climb.
