Chapter 106 This is our army!
Li Guoan made a phone call without any delay.
The call was extremely brief, and the tone was as calm as if they were discussing what to have for dinner.
"...The project requires 500 billion."
"...Yes, right now."
After a while.
"……good."
The phone hangs up.
The entire process takes no more than one minute.
"Charge it up," came Li Guoan's calm and unwavering voice.
"……good."
Chen You took a deep breath, forcibly suppressing the restless surge of passion in his blood.
He opened the recharge interface and redeemed the entire huge sum of money.
[Ding! Recharge successful! You have successfully recharged 500000 gold coins!]
[Ding! Congratulations! You have reached a new milestone in cumulative recharge amount and have obtained the unique title—[The Richest Man in the Land]!]
【Extremely Wealthy】: When wearing this title, there is a very small chance that you will trigger the "Spend Money Like Water" effect when trading with any NPC, and receive unexpected discounts or gifts.
Chen You glanced at the glittering title and his lips twitched.
Extremely wealthy?
This is nothing!
He's completely numb now, almost immune to these system prompts.
He opened the [Territory Garrison] interface and his gaze fell on the [Expand Garrison] button.
100 gold coins each.
5000 spots are worth 500,000 gold coins.
Without further hesitation, Chen You pressed his finger down heavily.
Instead of the numbers increasing one by one, the entire interface froze for a moment.
Immediately afterwards, a brand new message box appeared and covered the screen in a stunning way.
[A player has recently made a large recharge; batch processing mode has been activated for you.]
Please enter the number of slots you wish to add: _______
Chen You's finger hovered over the input box, pausing for a moment.
My obsessive-compulsive disorder flared up.
Add 5000, and that's 5010.
Let's make it a complete one!
He typed "4990".
Click to confirm.
[Confirm the expenditure of 499000 gold coins to permanently expand the garrison capacity by 4990?]
"yes!"
Om-!
An invisible wave suddenly spread outwards from the guild hall.
Current garrison strength: 5000/5000
Become!
Chen You exhaled a long breath, feeling as if he had completed a very difficult task.
"Is it done?" Li Guoan asked.
"Alright." Chen You nodded. "There are now a total of 5000 garrison positions."
"Very good." Li Guoan nodded, then turned his gaze to Zhang Yunhai, the tactical team leader. "Yunhai, you make the arrangements."
"Yes, Chief!"
Zhang Yunhai immediately stepped forward, his eyes revealing a single word – professionalism!
Looking at the magnificent model of Baiyujing on the sand table, he said in a deep voice: "Baiyujing covers a vast area, with a north-south axis stretching for ten kilometers and a total area of over 100,000 mu."
"There is no war going on now, so there is no need for concentrated deployment."
"I suggest that we form small teams of ten people and platoons of five people, and carry out grid-based patrols and defenses in different areas."
"This way, we can cover all key areas and mobilize support as quickly as possible in the event of an emergency."
Chen You didn't bother to think about it at all.
"Okay... I'll arrange it right away."
Under Zhang Yunhai's guidance, Chen You performed a series of operations on the guild management interface.
Five thousand reserve troops were dispersed and deployed to various corners of Baiyujing according to the established plan.
As Zhang Yunhai said, the massive Baiyujing was like a giant beast. Throwing five thousand people into it was like throwing a handful of sand into a lake; not even a ripple was seen.
The entire territory still appeared empty and peaceful.
Just when everyone thought the matter was over, a series of neat and powerful footsteps suddenly came from outside the guild hall.
despair!despair!despair!
The sound seemed to resonate with everyone's heartbeats, carrying an aura of iron-blooded killing intent as it approached from afar.
Li Guoan and the others' expressions hardened, and they quickly walked out of the hall.
In the distance, a squad of soldiers clad in standard silver armor and carrying long spears were seen marching with impeccable strides toward the hall.
There were ten of them in total, their figures as upright as pine trees, their eyes as sharp as eagles.
As the armor plates rubbed together, they emitted a cold, metallic sheen.
Despite being just an NPC in the game, it exudes a powerful and imposing aura.
This is the newly "created" garrison!
When they were three meters away from Chen You, the captain in the lead shouted in a low voice, "Stop!"
"Whoosh!"
The ten men moved in perfect unison, stopping instantly, their spears planted firmly on the ground with a dull thud.
Immediately afterwards, to everyone's astonishment, the ten soldiers lowered their heads before Chen You.
"Greetings, Your Lordship!"
The voice was loud and clear, echoing through the sky.
Chen You was taken aback by the spectacle, and then an indescribable sense of pride surged to his head.
These are...my soldiers?
Good heavens, if they get promoted, what chance will I have?
He cleared his throat, trying to appear more authoritative.
He pointed to Li Guoan beside him and said in a deep voice to the captain:
"This is Director Li Guoan. From now on, his orders are the highest command."
The captain looked up and glanced at Li Guoan.
His eyes remained completely still, as if he couldn't "see" this being that didn't belong to the Origin Realm.
But he still replied in a deep voice, "Yes, sir!"
Under the system's rules, they only obeyed Chen You.
They will carry out Chen You's orders unconditionally.
Li Guoan was not surprised by this, as he knew that reality and the Origin Realm were still two different worlds.
These soldiers are the force that protects the land of "White Jade Capital" in the Origin Realm, and cannot have a direct impact on reality.
But that's enough.
He simply nodded calmly.
He then turned to Chen You, his tone devoid of any emotion.
"The territory issue has been resolved."
"Where are you at in your main quest?"
One sentence instantly extinguished the soaring ambition in Chen You's heart that had just risen—the ambition that "all the heroes of the world are now under my control."
The stern look on his face hadn't faded, but the corners of his mouth were already twitching slightly.
Good guy.
I just finished the military parade, and you're already urging me to clock in for work?
This feeling is just like when you've just finished the company's annual meeting and your boss pats you on the shoulder and says, "You did a great job. Finish those PPTs tomorrow."
"...Ah, right, the mission." Chen You seemed to wake from a dream. "I'll go right now, I'll go right now."
If he didn't leave soon, he suspected that Director Li's next words would be, "Let's discuss your KPIs for next quarter."
Chen You practically fled in panic, quickly withdrawing from the guild territory.
Watching Chen You's slightly flustered disappearance, Zhang Yunhai, Sun Feng, and the others behind Li Guoan couldn't help but smile slightly, but quickly suppressed their smiles.
A barely perceptible smile flashed in Li Guoan's eyes, before he quickly regained his usual calm and serious demeanor.
"Considering the possible monster invasions and guild wars to come," he said calmly.
"The application plans for Baiyujing in the real world still need to be adjusted."
"yes!"
Just then, a young assistant ran over and handed over a report.
"Director, the first batch of candidates for the 'Dragon Scale' project has been selected."
The assistant's voice trembled slightly.
