210: Chapter 210: Not Enough Staff 210: Chapter 210: Not Enough Staff If it hadn’t suddenly become part of a school district, he wouldn’t have been determined to upgrade as quickly as possible.
And even this was under the most ideal condition.
If he couldn’t move the Space Gate after the upgrade, that would be real trouble.
Initially, he just thought it was bad luck, but he hadn’t expected this.
Zhao Guang took a deep breath, “Can this University City be relocated?”
This area is one of the best, and the documents have already been issued.
Changing locations now would involve too much, and the loss would outweigh the gain.”
Huang Haopeng was somewhat speechless—why was this guy so resistant?
You should know that these are two buildings in the school district, and because the houses were built early, the plots of land in the community are quite large.
However, these bases are all gardens and lawns.
The value is extremely lavish to anyone, but this guy’s behavior is so odd.
“This compensation was given to you by the higher-ups.
You should really stop messing with the Gold stuff.”
Alright, he calculated that he still wanted to add trouble for himself as compensation.
Zhao Guang suddenly felt a surge of anger.
“Then tell me, how much is a house in the school district worth, how much can I earn?
How much can I earn from Da Manjin’s shares, how much are the channels worth, and how much loss would I suffer if others came after me?”
Huang Haopeng shut up; he knew a bit more than the average person.
The things in Zhao Guang’s hands were really very valuable.
To speak of the actual value, a mere school district house really wasn’t much.
But there was no helping it; some people above calculate things completely differently from ordinary people.
Some people stand too high to see below, while others have their own ideas.
This matter—how could he even explain it?
Huang Haopeng was at a loss too.
“These, I can’t decide.”
“If you can’t decide, then find someone who can make the decision to talk, you don’t have to be embarrassed, just report it honestly.
Tell them, I have my own freedom; I am not their servant.”
These were very heavy words, and even Huang Haopeng could sense Zhao Guang’s dissatisfaction.
But what could be done?
“I understand, I will report it.”
Huang Haopeng, unable to achieve his aims, could only leave with his team.
However, before leaving, Huang Haopeng turned back and said, “An individual ultimately can’t confront the higher-ups, so you’d better find a backer.”
Zhao Guang was stunned for a moment—find a backer, was it because he didn’t have one that he was targeted?
At least he didn’t have a visible backer.
But why should he look for a backer?
Wouldn’t that mean he’d have to share his benefits?
What’s most crucial is, Zhao Guang didn’t care about the benefits; he was worried about the many secrets he had.
If discovered, it wouldn’t be as simple as having a backer; it would be a matter of whether he could align with the nation.
Forget it, he wouldn’t consider these for the time being.
Let them think he was just a channel merchant.
Zhao Guang looked for Zhao Yan and said, “I need a batch of artificial diamonds and some dairy cows soon.
The artificial diamonds are the same biggest model as last time—first, one million, no, make it five million, and also one million of the smaller models.”
“Why do you need so many artificial diamonds?
They can’t even produce that many.”
“Why?” Zhao Guang asked somewhat curiously.
“Although these sell well, the actual market isn’t that big, and their main job is producing diamond drills; the scale can’t be expanded indefinitely.
How long will it take to produce so many?”
Zhao Guang didn’t even think before responding, “If it’s not possible, then we will buy the equipment and manufacture them ourselves.”
Since he would definitely need a lot of these things in the future and since they had already become hard currency in the Otherworld, their potential value was completely different.
It seemed very necessary to produce them himself.
The more he thought about it, the more Zhao Guang believed he was right.
“Produce them ourselves?
The equipment might be a bit troublesome, but it seems it’s not impossible to buy.”
Because Zhao Guang was always buying various miscellaneous items, Zhao Yan was now familiar with many things.
A mere factory was just about employing a bunch of workers, which wasn’t a big deal at all.
With Zhao Guang’s current assets, he could afford however many workers he needed.
After confirming the order, Zhao Guang sent two people off, leaving them to get busy.
After some thought, Zhao Guang dialed the phone again, calling Liu Jiayin.
“Xiao Guang, why are you calling at this hour?
Are you up to another of your crazy ideas?”
When have I ever had wild ideas?” Zhao Guang looked at the time—before he knew it, it was already evening.
By this time, it should be time to get off work, right?
“Enough of that chatter, I just wanted to ask, how many employees do we have now?”
Aren’t there already more than two hundred?
What do you need that for?”
Zhao Guang didn’t hide it: “Because I’ve been earning a lot, I’ve been targeted.”
These damn bastards.” Earning more to be targeted sounds unreasonable, but it actually makes a lot of sense because that’s just how the world works.
But without Zhao Guang, what would happen to the development of his hometown?
Just as things were getting on track and everything was thriving, Liu Jiayin wouldn’t allow it all to be destroyed.
“You tell me what to do; I’ll listen to you,” Liu Jiayin said through gritted teeth.
Seeming to feel Liu Jiayin’s anger, Zhao Guang spoke, “To prevent a loss of face from getting worse, I must have my own Golden Body.
Starting now, recruit workers according to our scale and fill up the positions, even if some are just there without work.”
According to our scale, I’m confident we can expand to ten thousand workers in a short time, and even twenty thousand wouldn’t be a problem.
It’s not really about keeping some without work; there’s some preparatory work that they can do.”
Although it wasn’t up to his real expectations, accommodating so many workers in such a short period of development wasn’t easy.
Besides, a scale of twenty thousand wasn’t small.
Especially since it was in the impoverished province of Gui, this could probably have a significant effect.
“Then proceed with that scale, and accelerate further development; I have enough funds here.”
Zhao Guang thought to himself, it’s not really about using you guys; this is more of a mutual benefit.
“I already have a full development plan—even accelerating isn’t a problem.
