After the five people talked about the military department, they talked about the current situation of the alliance.
The financial deficit was serious and expansion had to be postponed.
Shuisheng, as the Minister of Finance, knows the truth best. He suggested: "First of all, we need to strengthen our contacts with Tianduan Mountain. I want to open up a few hidden lines and replace our sea salt and luxury goods with scarce resources as soon as possible. I According to statistics, apart from Anseong, which is really poor, Pyeongseong seems poor, but has a large population and is a huge potential market. By accelerating the economic effect, we can not only quickly fill the deficit, but also penetrate the influence of the alliance to prepare for the future. "
"Secondly, after this thorough investigation, I want to revise the tax law and commercial law. There are still too many legal loopholes. This time, we will try to improve them as much as possible based on the actual situation."
"Finally, Lin Yan said that the problem of the Transportation Department exists to a greater or lesser extent in other agencies and departments. I think the Ninth Department needs to refine the structure, authority and responsibilities of each department, and make it as detailed and implementable as possible. Take the Taxation Department as an example, I We plan to separate a tax inspection department to review the tax situation to prevent things like Treasure Shop from happening again.”
Kurotsuchi was the first to praise: "I agree."
Lin Yan and the others looked at each other and decided not to get to the bottom of it.
Huang Ying said: "Shui Sheng's suggestion is very specific, but it is more time-consuming and laborious to implement, and it will take a while to complete. I agree. In addition, I think the management of the personnel department is too chaotic. Although Xia Li is serious and responsible, the people underneath are not very good. . We need to give her a few helpers and restructure the personnel department, such as separating the review and appointment of civil servants so that they cannot be decided by one department, and separate the management of special talents. First, we need to separate the personnel department’s own team. Once it is established, the Human Resources Department can take the lead in conducting a personnel overhaul."
Lin Yan smiled and said, "Yes, it seems you have worked hard."
Huang Ying smiled bitterly: "I only discovered this when I was responsible for Tianduan Mountain's material allocation. Many things encountered obstacles when it came to the personnel department."
Lin Yan: "I feel the same, but I didn't think the problem was serious before, but now I have to free up my hands to rectify it. Who do you think is suitable to go to the Human Resources Department?"
Shui Sheng and Heitu said at the same time: "Huang Ying."
Huang Ying was dumbfounded. She didn't expect that the matter would fall on her. She just asked a question and wanted to find a few people to help Xia Li.
"I can't do it. I have a lot of things waiting for me and I can't be busy at all."
Shui Sheng: "The most important thing is to reorganize the human resources department. You can let others take care of the things you are doing." He signaled with his eyes and glanced at Lin Yan.
Huang Ying understood instantly and immediately said: "Lin Yan has rich experience and is very familiar with handling matters at Tianduan Mountain. It is just in time for the big rectification. Everyone must do their best."
Shuisheng chatted: "In my opinion, let Lin Yan take over your current job, and you go to the human resources department to help Xia Li."
Lan Yue has been traveling a lot in recent years and doesn't pay much attention to the internal management of the alliance. He just listens quietly. But her reaction was not slow at all. After Shui Sheng finished speaking, she continued: "Lin Yan is the most suitable."
Kurotsuchi also reacted, "I feel good."
The four people unanimously agreed that Lin Yan had no room for struggle and took a big job for himself. From tomorrow onwards, she will transform into a social animal, no, no tomorrow, from this moment on, the burden on her shoulders becomes much heavier.
She rolled her eyes and was very jealous when she saw that Lan Yue had nothing to do with her, "Although Lan Yue was injured, he cannot stay out of the matter. The overhaul involves the foundation and all aspects of the alliance. No matter how big or small the task is, those who can do the hard work. I think she is very suitable to go to the Department of Public Resources, and it just so happens that Hong Ling is not around and there is no one to scare her."
Huang Ying immediately said: "Okay, I think it's very suitable."
Shuisheng: "I agree."
Kurotsuchi opened his mouth, but still said nothing. Silence equaled acquiescence. He thought that young people should work harder if they are able.
Lan Yue did not refuse and said directly: "There are nine departments in total. We only have five people. Each person should get two departments on average. I don't refuse either. I am also the Ministry of Military Affairs, Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Ministry of Public Resources. Black Earth is not included. For the remaining six, each of you three will be responsible for at least two."
Huang Ying: "I want to serve as both the Ministry of Justice and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. That's enough. I'm definitely not lazy."
Lin Yan: "Have you forgotten that I am still the Minister of Science and Technology, and the matter of Tianduan Mountain is passed on to me. I am unable to do anything else."
Shuisheng looked around and said, "I won't refuse. In addition to the Ministry of Finance, I will also take over the Ministry of Public Security."
The four of them stared at Lin Yan, making her scalp numb, and said angrily: "That's too much, leave me the Government Affairs Department. Things are the most complicated, and the Industry and Commerce Department below alone is a headache."
Shuisheng smiled and said: "Actually, that's not the case. You have to allocate resources to Tianduan Mountain, which is similar to the work done by the Government Affairs Department. It is best to manage it together. Besides, the Ministry of Science and Technology is currently the best in management, so there is no need to bother to rectify it. "
Lin Yan glared at him angrily, "The Ministry of Public Security doesn't have to bother to rectify it. Why don't you treat everyone equally?"
Shui Sheng said hurriedly: "How about we switch? You take over the Ministry of Finance and I take charge of the Government Affairs Department?"
Lin Yan shook his head resolutely, "I won't change." If she thought she was stupid and easy to fool, who didn't know that the most difficult thing for Jiubu to deal with was the Ministry of Finance.
Shui Sheng spread his hands and said, "The opportunity was given to you, but you didn't want it. You can't blame others."
"Haha, you should cherish it yourself."
Shuisheng made a decision: "Then it's settled. I'll go find the recorder and draft the documents first."
Looking at Shui Sheng's hurried back, Lin Yan stared blankly. She felt that she held this meeting today just to get work for herself.
Huang Ying patted her shoulder, "In special times, we should work together. Look at Lan Yue, one person can do three jobs, how refreshing it is."
"Haha, I'm not Lan Yue." Lin Yan smiled.
Lan Yue: "Don't take me along."
Kurotsuchi watched the four of them come and go, "I really want you young people to come. I'm really old and can't keep up with your pace."
I was extremely glad that I had left the military affairs to Lan Yue first. Otherwise, he would not know how much responsibility he would have to bear by the time he reacted to the situation just now.
"You guys do your best, I'll go back first. Lan Yue, don't forget to report to the military headquarters tomorrow and I will formally introduce you to everyone."
Lan Yue nodded. She injured her left arm, but it didn't affect her work. I don’t want to see Kurotsuchi working hard anymore. He has given a lot to the alliance and it’s time to enjoy his old age.
After Heitu left, the smiles on Lin Yan and Huang Ying's faces immediately disappeared.
They had no idea about Kurotsuchi's physical condition. If it hadn't suddenly been revealed today, they didn't know how long it would have been kept secret.
Huang Ying said emotionally: "Time flies so fast. Kurotsuchi has always been extremely brave. He is the most majestic and powerful man in the league. He will never fall and will be our strongest support. With him here, no matter what we do, we will feel at ease." It makes me feel really uncomfortable to suddenly learn that he is like this."
After a moment of silence, Lin Yan said: "Time is the most cruel and merciless. Over the years, I have been used to separation and death again and again. However, Heitu was really surprising. I cared too little about him before and ignored him."
Lan Yue: "Let him rest and take good care of him for a few years. It's time for us to take over the burden from the older generation."
Lin Yan clicked his tongue and said, "Lanyue, why didn't I realize before that you still have the potential to be a social animal?"
"Social animal?" Lan Yue frowned slightly.
"Being exploited like livestock and not resisting." Lin Yan also accidentally saw the phrase in the Science and Technology Museum.
Lan Yue: "I took the initiative and did not exploit anyone."
Lin Yan: "...You are amazing. The alliance needs model workers like you the most."
Huang Ying chuckled and said happily: "Stop being poor and let's talk business. What do you think of the Xingyao Tribe? Don't tell me, are you two planning to sneak around and find someone to fight?"
Lin Yan reacted quickly, "How could we do such a thing if it doesn't happen? Besides, there are so many things going on right now, how can we have time?"
Huang Ying looked back and forth between the two of them, "It's best this way."
…
In the nearby mountain col outside Yuncheng, a group of people carefully hid their traces and did not dare to speak loudly.
Ye Cong glanced into the distance and whispered to Shi Zhi: "How long do we have to hide? Didn't you say that the explosives and artillery have arrived, and it will only take a matter of minutes to capture Yuncheng?"
Shi Zhi remained motionless, as if he didn't hear Ye Cong's words.
The people who came with them were too brave to breathe. They were selected and followed Shi Zhi to Yuncheng secretly, preparing to join forces with the people in the city to take down Yuncheng in one fell swoop.
Before leaving, Ye Cong suddenly joined. They were all selected on a temporary basis and had no idea who Ye Cong was.
But they knew Shi Zhi, and it was a supreme honor to be able to act with him, and their excitement could not be suppressed.
Unexpectedly, Ye Cong's arrival broke all appearances.
The two quarreled with each other and exposed each other's wounds. For seven days on the road, there were only a handful of times when the two could talk properly.
Song Lie has been observing secretly. He is a native of Pingcheng. He was selected this time because of his good talent and skills.
Being able to walk up to Shi Zhi was like being hit by a pie from the sky. Since the day Pingcheng changed hands, I witnessed Shi Zhi's kicking style with my own eyes, which left an indelible mark.
Then he became an excellent soldier, always following Shi Zhi as an example and paying attention to his idol's every move.
The brilliance of the idol was dazzling, and Song Lie was dazzled and obeyed his words. Until Ye Cong came and broke through the hazy and dazzling halo.
At this moment, he stared at Ye Cong with great admiration. He was the first person who dared to talk to Shi Zhi like this, and Shi Zhi hadn't kicked him yet.
Shi Zhi ignored Shi Zhi, and Ye Cong looked around boringly. He caught Song Lie's eyes and became more energetic, "Song Lie, please see clearly. Shi Zhi is boring and has a poisonous mouth. He blinded you in vain." Worship, why don’t you change your idol?”
Song Lie: "..." Sandwiched between the two bosses, he shivered. Although he had never seen Ye Cong take action and seemed to be talkative and kind-hearted, he never dared to look down on Ye Cong.
"I sincerely suggest that you don't let Shi Zhi delay your promising future." Ye Cong looked like he wanted to talk for a long time.
Song Lie was so frightened that he took a few steps back and stayed away from him.
Ye Cong was about to continue his efforts when he heard Shi Zhi say coldly: "The time has come."
Ye Cong's face turned serious in an instant, "Now let's talk about it, what are we going to do?"
Ever since he followed Shi Zhi, he had not received any clear instructions. He felt that Shi Zhi pointed out that he must have other motives for coming here.
There were many attempts along the way, all to no avail. Ye Cong was ready to give up, but finally the time came.
Shi Zhi's face was expressionless, "You are responsible for the development and transportation of artillery. Now it's time for you to perform. When you see the mountain over there, take the artillery to the top of the mountain and fire at the tallest building in Yun City."
Ye Cong looked in the direction of Shi Zhi's finger. There was a mountain in front of them. It was very short and small, and could barely be called a mountain.
He looked back at the artillery in the mountain col. The latest product of the scientific research institute was on the cart at the moment. It was dark and heavy at first glance. It weighed hundreds or thousands of kilograms at least, not counting the weight of the shells.
"Are you serious?"
Shi Zhi looked at him like a fool, "You have boasted that the artillery is so good, now is the time to test the results. It is best to fire two cannons to be sure. If you are not sure, you can fire a few more cannons."
Ye Cong's heart was extremely complicated at this moment. He took a deep breath and gritted his teeth and said: "Okay, just wait, let me see the power of the artillery."
Song Lie's mouth reacted faster than his brain, "I can't move it alone, so I'll help."
Ye Cong turned his head, his eyes fierce, "Who are you looking down on?" How could he be worse than Shi Zhi? He was just carrying an artillery piece.
Song Lie was dumbfounded and froze on the spot, watching helplessly as Ye Cong easily carried the cannon and walked away with the black box in one hand.
Several other people were dumbfounded. They had taken turns pushing the cart all the way, and they all knew the weight. It was unreal that it was carried away so easily.
In particular, Ye Cong looked thin, without any strong muscles, and he didn't look like a warrior. This was somewhat similar to Shi Zhi.
Song Lie glanced at Shi Zhi secretly and kept telling himself, don't make a fuss. Anyone who can quarrel with a boss is also a boss, that's absolutely true.
Ten minutes later, a rumble filled the sky, more like thunder exploding in the head.
It was earth-shattering, and many people inside and outside the city were frightened.
The tallest building in the center of Cloud City, the three-story attic was at the center of the sound. When the explosion subsided, this iconic building disappeared.
In the city, people on the streets were running around in panic, and it suddenly became a mess.
Outside the city, Song Lie's eyes widened in shock, his mouth slightly opened, and he looked towards the hilltop not far away.
That artillery is so powerful, it sounds like it can blow up everything. It's really scary.
Shi Zhi said calmly: "What a fuss, if there is no power, why let Ye Cong come in person."
Song Lie calmed down and asked boldly: "What does Ye Cong do?" From the fact that he could easily carry the cannon, it was obvious that he was unusual, but how powerful he was was unknown.
Shi Zhi sneered: "It's your turn to play. Remember, go to Shen Jiarui after entering the city and follow his arrangements."
"You're not with us?" Song Lie lost his composure, he was too surprised.
"I said I wanted to be with you?" Shi Zhi raised his eyebrows, his eyes as bright as lightning.
Song Lie hurriedly shook his head and said, "No, let's leave immediately." He specifically understood that Shi Zhi was resolute, spoke less venomously, and provoked less.
After everyone left, Shi Zhi raised his legs and walked towards the top of the hill where Ye Cong was.
