Chapter 721 271: The Old Drunkard's Interest Lies Not Just in Wine, But Also in the Beauty of Mountains and Rivers_2
But the premise is that there is no imminent war.
Ju Qingmeng's father said, "Although Source Star Military Industry has given us a concession, allowing us unlimited purchases of military equipment at a discounted price, it still costs money. Providing top-tier equipment to underperforming Professionals at the lower levels could result in a significant waste. This is not about one or two people, it's about eighty thousand! Ren Zhong is wealthy; for a day or two, it doesn't matter, but over time, the operating costs of the enterprise will remain high, which is not advisable. That's not how business is done."
Ju Qingmeng said, "But..."
Her mother continued, "No buts. Even if the Military Industry Group offers a discount, it's still making a profit. Also, we currently don't have a complete production line, so if the core components of the equipment suffer major damage, they would have to be scrapped. Equipping First Level Professionals with Second Level equipment makes such situations very likely."
Ju Qingmeng sighed, "Sigh, this..."
Ren Zhong stepped forward and said, "Uncle, Aunt, I've heard everything you've been discussing."
"Hello, Mr. Ren!"
The two elders quickly stood up.
Ren Zhong's lips twitched, "Sit, please sit. Here's the thing, I'm planning to acquire my own arms factory."
The three of them were taken aback.
Ju Qingmeng shook her head, "No, that's illegal!"
Ju Qingmeng's father also said, "The Source Star Military Industry is already starting construction of an arms factory outside the town. By then, according to proximity principles, we should be able to get more discounts on our procurement prices, Mr. Ren, you're actually..."
Ren Zhong shook his head, "That's still someone else's property, not my own industry. Besides, I have a way to do it legally."
...
Half an hour later, Ren Zhong and Ju Qingmeng left together, heading straight to the airport where his private airship was docked.
They took off, heading straight for their destination.
Along the way, Ju Qingmeng seemed a little nervous.
Ren Zhong gently patted her shoulder, "It's okay, I'm here."
"Mhm."
At this time, there were five people in the airship.
The pilot Chen Meng, "secretary" Ou Youning, the newly promoted Fifth Level Demolition Master, Hanyu, along with Ren Zhong and Ju Qingmeng.
Ren Zhong saw through Hanyu's little thoughts.
In fact, shortly after the ordeal with the Cold-blooded Butcher in Starfire Town, she already had the technical skills of a Fifth Level Demolition Master.
However, she kept delaying taking the professional examination and did not replace her Fifth Level gloves.
Her thoughts were both simple and complex.
Once she became the only Fifth Level Demolition Master in town, she would have to participate intensively in the cross-level team hunts led by Zheng Tian, taking on the tasks of dismantling crystal chips of Fifth Level and even Level Six Ruined Beasts.
In that case, she would be very busy and, like Zheng Tian, would see less of Mr. Ren.
She was avoiding that situation.
Hanyu was not aware of her change in mindset.
Since Yang Bingzhong was executed, her taut nerves relaxed.
Her former fear of the opposite sex also gradually dissipated due to Ren Zhong's protection.
Her attention became scattered, and she was no longer as obsessed with professional books as she once was.
By nature, she was a reserved person, not daring to confess her feelings and unwilling to let go, secretly indulging her long-suppressed girlish thoughts.
She found life as a little secretary by Ren Zhong's side to be easy and pleasant.
This was a life she never dared dream of, very fulfilling.
Unfortunately, her little thoughts could not escape Ren Zhong's notice.
He had a talk with her.
Afterward, she was sharply awakened.
Upon seeing Ren Zhong and Ju Qingmeng go public with their relationship, Hanyu did not feel jealousy or disappointment but rather recognized her own shortcomings compared to Ju Qingmeng.
Ju Qingmeng never slowed her pace in catching up with him.
But she did.
Although she rarely appears publicly in her true form, she never let go of the pride derived from her beauty in her heart.
Despite all the truths Mr. Ren had taught her, she relaxed so easily once the external threats were gone.
Mr. Ren is different; his desire for kindred spirits far exceeds his pursuit of sexuality.
I was wrong.
Since then, Hanyu let go of her unnecessary thoughts and devoted herself fully to her Demolition Master's career again.
Now, she is nominally at Fifth Level but already possesses complete Level Six knowledge, only requiring verification.
She also noticed the subtle changes in Ren Zhong's manner towards her, as if the familiar Mr. Ren had returned.
"Mr. Ren, I've reviewed the information on the Level Six Ruined Beast, the Vibranium Tiger, that appeared in Nangao Town, Chongyi County. I have something to say."
As she said this, Hanyu laid out the tablet.
