168: Chapter 168 The Beginning of Frontier Company

Instructor Duan Chengwu's name truly held such power.

Xiao Wu and the others had no doubt about it.

The tone in which the captain said this made Xiao Wu feel as if he were seeing that captain who used to banter and scold, the Huaxia Falcon who struck fear into the hearts of mercenaries from all nations.

Those were also his most painful days—painful, yet happy.

Thinking back on it now, he felt he was a prodigy to have endured such training, earned the captain's recognition, and become a glorious member of the Wolf Falcon Special Operations Team.

"Since it's your decision, Captain, we will listen to you."

Old Q pressed down on Xiao Wu's shoulder, forcing him back into his seat, and said: "Captain, leave us an address. When we get back, we'll come to see how you're doing."

"If you're not doing well..."

Old Q grinned, revealing a hint of ferocity.

"I'll tear down General Zheng's door! I'll flip his desk!"

Instructor Duan Chengwu nodded, a hint of a smile appearing.

These men were, after all, still afraid of General Zheng.

If it had been anyone else, the version would likely have changed to: "Beat him until his own grandmother wouldn't recognize him! Make him unable to get out of bed for seven days!"

"Alright, I'll wait for your return." Instructor Duan Chengwu nodded slightly and asked: "When do you depart?"

Old Q composed his expression and said in a deep voice: "The mobilization order was issued at five o'clock this morning. The specific list has already been finalized. The departure time we received is..."

"Tomorrow at nine o'clock sharp."

...

"What?"

Wang Shuo's eyes widened as he looked at Zheng Yi, who had suddenly appeared before him.

"Deliver fifty KD-001 Electromagnetic Rifles and ten K-001 Electromagnetic Sniper Rifles to you before noon tomorrow? Plus thirty thousand rounds of ammunition?"

Zheng Yi nodded with a serious expression: "Can you do it?"

"Wasn't it agreed that a batch would be delivered before the end of the year? Why the sudden rush?"

Wang Shuo asked with some confusion.

"This is classified." Zheng Yi shook her head slightly: "Just tell me, can you do it?"

Has something happened?

Wang Shuo's expression grew more serious. He stroked his chin, thought for a moment, and then nodded firmly: "It can be done. Send a vehicle to pick up the goods at eleven o'clock tomorrow morning."

"Really?"

Zheng Yi looked hesitant.

Wang Shuo's quick agreement left her feeling somewhat caught off guard.

"These items are very important. Once you've agreed, you must deliver on time. If you cannot, according to wartime regulations, you will be dealt with by military law."

That harsh?

Wang Shuo gritted his teeth but still nodded.

The harsher it was, the more urgent the situation must be.

The harsher it was, the more it highlighted the importance of this batch of Electromagnetic Rifles.

Anything that could make Zheng Yi take it this seriously was definitely not a small matter.

If he had been powerless before, that would be one thing, but now that it was within his capabilities, Wang Shuo wanted to try.

He didn't want to watch the news afterwards and regret it.

"Alright."

Zheng Yi looked at Wang Shuo deeply: "I will bring people to pick up the goods on time tomorrow."

"Wait."

Wang Shuo called out to Zheng Yi, who was about to leave.

"I will notify you of the pickup location; it might not be here."

"Understood."

Zheng Yi waved her hand casually, got into her car, and left.

After Zheng Yi's vehicle had completely disappeared from Wang Shuo's sight, Wang Shuo finally returned to the warehouse.

At this moment, Wang Shuo's expression was calm and serious. This was not the effect of the Humanoid Race mental assimilation, but rather something from Wang Shuo himself.

This was a change that had occurred because Wang Shuo had been embodying the role of the Frontier Company's legal representative for so long, coupled with his frequent immersion in the Humanoid Race's mental assimilation.

He checked the time.

December 1st, 9:30 AM.

Zheng Yi had only left him twenty-five hours.

Twenty-five hours to produce sixty Electromagnetic Rifles, plus the supporting energy supply systems and the corresponding projectiles and magazines—relying on Wang Shuo alone, he would be worked to death and still not finish.

But since Wang Shuo had been able to agree, he had his own plan.

"Zero."

Wang Shuo ordered: "Contact Liu Yemei, Lin Junfeng, and also..."

"Uncle Chen."

...

Beijing.

Chen Group headquarters.

Chen Zhongxuan hung up the video call with Wang Shuo, his expression serious. After pondering for a moment, he pressed the communicator beside him.

"Secretary Chen, please come in."

One minute later.

Secretary Chen pushed the door open and entered.

"Director Chen, you called for me."

"Go and contact our company's machinery manufacturing company in Donghai City and send them a letter."

Chen Zhongxuan said in a low voice.

"From now on, all production capacity of Chen Group's subsidiary machinery manufacturing companies is to be placed under the arrangement of Frontier Technology Co., Ltd. All personnel in the company must execute the resolutions of Frontier Technology Co., Ltd. without exception. Anyone who violates this will be fired!"

"This decision will remain in effect until further notice."

"Director Chen..." Secretary Chen frowned: "The machinery manufacturing subsidiary in Donghai City is managed by Hanzhong City Zhongzhi Pengcheng Technology Co., Ltd. This area has always been under the responsibility of Mr. Bangguo. Should we notify him?"

"I am the Chairman of the Chen Group."

Chen Zhongxuan glanced at Secretary Chen indifferently and said calmly: "My decision is the Group's decision. Go do it."

"Very well, Director Chen."

Secretary Chen nodded slightly and exited the office.

Chen Zhongxuan looked at the phone on his desk, thought about the expression Wang Shuo had when he spoke just now, and couldn't help but smile slightly.

This child is finally starting to show some real maturity; he no longer has that naive, childish feeling from before.

And...

To think that he was actually following orders willingly?

Heh heh heh...

It's great to be young.

...

Donghai City.

Liu Yemei quietly hung up the phone.

In front of her were Lin Junfeng and the others.

"Everyone has heard what Director Wang said."

Liu Yemei looked around the room and said calmly: "I am now announcing on behalf of Frontier Technology Co., Ltd. that, in accordance with the decision of Mr. Wang Shuo, the actual controlling shareholder and General Manager of Frontier Technology Co., Ltd., Subspace Materials Technology Co., Ltd. will, from this moment on, free up half of its production capacity to focus entirely on producing New Material No. 1 and New Material No. 2. You must ensure the finished materials are delivered to Chengdong Machinery Factory in Donghai City by 3:00 PM."

"The following engineering and technical personnel from Subspace Materials Technology Co., Ltd.: Zhao Cheng, Tan Yan, Lin Hai, Chen Wei..."

A total of six people, all of whom were reliable technicians that Liu Yemei had selected during this period.

"The above personnel will accompany the materials to Chengdong Machinery Factory to assist with mechanical modifications, establish temporary production lines, and ensure that production work proceeds smoothly."

"Director Lin and I will be responsible for the connection and coordination of the entire chain in Donghai City. The specific procedures will be sent to the work group later; everyone should follow the procedures."

"From today, all company personnel will switch to a three-shift rotation. Wages will be paid at five times the standard rate. After completing the task, I will request credit for everyone from Director Wang and commend those who excel."

"Does anyone have any objections?"

Lin Junfeng and the others looked at each other. You've said everything that can and cannot be said; what objections could we possibly have?

But not saying anything would make them seem inferior.

Seeing that all the participating employees were looking at him, Lin Junfeng coughed twice and then voiced his own response.

"We will comply."

...

At this moment, the entire Frontier Technology Co., Ltd. began to operate rapidly and precisely.

Like a newborn baby just waking up, it greedily and slowly turned over, without making a sound.

And this... was merely the beginning.
