Chapter 1785: Forming an Expeditionary Force

The cadres of the group were summoned, and before departure, various tasks were arranged and candidates for attack were determined.

The heads of various departments reported the progress of their work. Some were in good condition, while others suffered serious losses. They exchanged information with each other.

"Overall, is the situation good?"

"Yes, it is very good."

"This year's profit growth may be 70%. The government has given us the most favorable tax reduction and subsidy policies, and has supported us in all aspects."

Some projects have lost a lot, such as the extraordinary products of the "Ping An" brand, which seems to have the greatest advantage.

On the one hand, the marketing cost of new brands is too high, and on the other hand, now is the time to lose money in the market. In order to keep the price as low as possible, even with many subsidies and policy support, the more you sell, the more you lose.

But overall, it is profitable, because the overseas projects that have fallen into the resource points of the "Church of Redemption and Life Value", including gold and silver mines, oil, etc., have brought huge net income.

These things are still not recorded in the account. Lu Ping'an didn't even pay much wages. The local labor cost is too low. It's not that Lu Ping'an wants to save that little labor, but giving too much "bonus" is murder in a sense for the chaotic world that has just restored some order.

Even if the salary is only 30% higher than the local salary, Lu Ping'an knows that he is directly murdering for a worker quota. Fortunately, the other party is not crazy enough to ask for hereditary worker positions, otherwise Lu Ping'an doesn't know how to deal with it.

Now, just the blood transfusion from overseas is enough to support the operation of the entire group.

Lu Ping'an's various trading places and holy places are basically in a state of slightly losing money. The operating expenses are definitely a loss, but the various "services" and living facilities of the trading places can recover a lot of costs.

And the various production factories in the ancient city, from Xia Qin's report, are also in good condition, and the technology has also completed a new iteration, but it is too biased towards water wars, and the market environment is more delicate.

"Why don't we try to develop overseas markets and sell some of our shipping equipment and log warships to other countries and territories?"

Whether it is the East China Sea or the southeast, the sea is not peaceful. There is a need for large ships and weapons on board. The current procurement of maritime armaments in the East has slowed down, and most of the defense procurement funds have been invested in low-level weapons.

Perhaps, it is possible to consider doing overseas business

"Okay, I'll try it first"

Lu Ping'an made a phone call to confirm the attitude of the above. Not only did he not oppose it, but he also hinted at policy and tax support.

This is also expected. Now the East has entered an "offensive posture" and expanded its influence around the world. This kind of export earns foreign exchange and can also increase reputation and (military) deterrence. It is in line with the development trend of the times.

After confirming that the development of various industries is smooth, even if a group of senior executives leave, everyone also breathed a sigh of relief.

There are still hidden dangers. It is Lin Nu. As long as the East is still on their side, the industries left here are actually not a big problem.

"I'll stay behind."

Catherine sighed. Someone has to look after the family. She didn't want to take responsibility, but the situation was too big. She didn't trust other people, not because of their character, but because of their ability. She estimated that no one knew the entire industry better than Lu Ping'an himself.

In a sense, Lu Ping'an's power was enough to destroy the country, and it was totally unacceptable for him to have any problems.

After confirming the cadres who participated in this time, they entered the stage of information sharing and talent recommendation.

On Lu Ping'an's side, it was already a real legion instead of an "adventurer", and the personnel drawn were already regular troops in the eyes of outsiders.

The cadres and supervisors of each department had combat power that could be called a legion or a battle group. Now they dispatched personnel according to demand to rebuild an expeditionary force for foreign exploration.

"Should we bring the chariot troops? No matter what kind of physical law is, friction wheels are generally not banned. Our craftsmen can make local vehicles and battlefield chariots at the fastest speed. I have hired a group of very outstanding drivers, and they need some practical training."

"Meow, there are several groups of assassins and sentinels here! Now that the country has calmed down, they have to find new work to do!"

"We must be prepared to deal with the sniping of Linnv's forces. Otherwise, let our spies over there take action and at least get their personnel."

"The oxygen content in the atmosphere over there is very high, which may be conducive to combustion. Let the Holy Fire Corps take it."

"That is a medium and high magic area. I can also take the tamed beasts there, and maybe I can cultivate new species."

Naturally, when the cadres began to prepare for the exploration plan, they talked about organizing a regular army and conducting a large-scale war.

The more personnel, the more logistics must keep up, and the merchant groups must also be deployed.

In a sense, this is one of the main reasons why Lu Pingan was invited to go. A comprehensive explorer group is much more adaptable than a simple fighting church.

"Since no one is willing to ascend to the gods, I will invite two low-level gods to go with me."

At this level, Lu Pingan can even directly hire and dispatch the God's Ship.

There are quite a few "allies" who are very close to him, and now is the time to activate the network support.

And dispatching gods is also Lu Pingan's preparation for a big fight. Whether it is to deal with the possible sniper Lin goddess system or to challenge the local dangerous elements, the "divine grace" given by the gods is very useful, especially in helping members adapt to the environment as soon as possible.

Before departure, you must do a good job of intelligence work. In this regard, the information provided by Dongguo is a bit thin. This is mainly because there is too much time for exploration and discovery, and even the Sakurajima people themselves do not have much useful information.

That world was discovered by them very early, but at that time they did not have enough power to develop it, which was just a little bit of reclamation and intelligence collection.

Different from the previous prepared battles, this time it may be necessary to develop and develop while fighting, and to the extent of designing, adapting and producing at the same time.

"Prepare the factory, and by the way, hire a group of 'mechanics' to realize the integration of war machinery as soon as possible."

I have no plans to go there and live a savage life. I have a safe road, so I have to make preparations in advance.

After confirming their intention to go, and after confirming communication with Wanjing, all the cadres began to go their own way.

It takes time to dispatch materials and personnel, and it takes time to set up targeted research and development and geographical exploration departments. It will not take a while for a force of this level to take action.

By the time all preparations were completed, it would already be two months later.

During this process, Lu Ping'an received a warning as expected.

"Sure enough, Lin Nu's divine boat is already on its way, and they will definitely attack us on the way."

The biggest difference from before is that the leader of the expedition this time is not Lu Ping'an, but the "adult" Chrissy.
