"You're the only one I brought with me?"

"Yes."

Sonya tsk'd, but the cold look in her eyes showed no sign of softening.

"You'd better not let me see you one day only caring about showing off your face in front of the doctor, but failing to fulfill your duties."

Sonia lowered her eyelids, but her voice, which was even colder and piercing, continued to float in the space between the two of them.

"—Otherwise I will stab you to death with my own hands."

"You won't get that chance,"

Natalia's expression and tone were calm. "If anything happens to the doctor, it will only happen after I fall."

"It's best this way."

Sonia just gave her a cold look, and her attitude was not friendly until the end, so she turned and walked away.

Natalia was not angry, she just sighed more heavily.

The three friends who escaped from Chernobyl with her were in a different situation.

Her family was aristocratic, and thanks to the Doctor's advance warning, her parents and family were able to survive in the end, and they also had some assets outside of Chernobyl.

But Sonya, Anna, and Gumi are just ordinary families.

Their entire family had been lost in Chernobyl and was now practically certain to be dead. Sonya's relationship with them had been extremely strained even before this. Rhodes Island was now their only home, the only one worth protecting and cherishing.

On top of this, the doctor is the most important person in maintaining the family.

Except for the instructor Dubin and other people who participated in the training, no one could imagine how much unspeakable sweat and even blood Sonya had shed in order to be selected as the doctor's bodyguard.

From a delinquent girl in an ordinary high school, she gained the recognition of Instructor Dubin in just two months. Even if she only met the minimum standards and was trained as a future reserve, she would still be ranked alongside Black Steel International's regular security mercenaries.

No one had the right to belittle Sonya's efforts. Even she had gritted her teeth and walked with Sonya to this point. If she took the seat next to the doctor, Sonya would stare at her from behind.

Compared to her ideal, Sonya was the one who changed a lot because of the Doctor from the very beginning, and was focused on approaching that figure all the way.

I don't know what kind of gossip was spread during my time with the doctor this morning. As an immature guard traveling with the doctor, it's not surprising that Sonya warned me.

Natalia rubbed her forehead with a wry smile, and continued walking towards the dormitory with painful steps.

First it was Instructor Dobin, then it was Sonia. Everyone’s contribution was so heavy that she couldn’t afford to slack off at all.

Having a relationship with a PhD is really stressful.

"Looks like I'd better forget about my holiday tomorrow."

Natalia walked into the dormitory and lifted her legs helplessly, trying to see how she could move.

After being warned by Sonya, she no longer dared to continue to skip training and rest leisurely.

What can we do?

I have to do it even if I have to grit my teeth.

Give everything for the doctorate!

……

Not knowing what happened after Natalia left, Luo Hang did have some work to deal with after returning to the ship.

Kal'tsit was reporting beside him.

"Amiya's speech this afternoon was excellent, and she received criticism and malice from some people. You should find some time to praise that child."

"The transfer paperwork for Sunset District has been completed, and it is expected to be connected to our District No. 1 within three days."

"The production line for the 'Integrated Shuttle Mining Vehicle' you entrusted to Kulushier has been finalized. Although we can manufacture all the equipment ourselves using the 'Projector', the cost will probably still be over 7 million Longmen coins."

"Considering the safety benchmark, Rhode Island currently has only 10.27 billion in available liquidity. If you have any other plans, it's best to refer to the financial statements."

"Currently, the No. 2000 District is still undergoing a residential renovation project, which requires an investment of between 3000 million and million yuan every month."

"The voyage to Victoria is expected to take four months, and the navigation and supply budget is around $4 million, which may increase depending on unexpected circumstances."

“…That’s about it.”

Kal'tsit raised her eyes from the tablet in her hand and looked at Luo Hang in front of her.

He also hummed softly.

"It seems we have to be more frugal in our lives, huh?"

He made a joke.

Kelsey sighed.

"Although we have expanded into other industries besides healthcare, if Theresa hadn't left a fairly substantial fortune to Rhodes Island, it wouldn't have been enough for you to squander like this."

"Haha, she's the princess after all, so she has to save some money for her dowry, right?"

He blinked one eye.

Kelsey was speechless for a while:

"But now you've almost spent it all."

Chapter 107: For a man’s ambition!

There are always many problems, but we can always see hope if we solve them one by one.

First of all, there's nothing wrong with Amiya chatting with her cute little rabbit. As long as she finds time, uh...

After considering his own schedule, Luo Hang gave a somewhat awkward smile.

I have to go to Gertrude's house for a medical checkup in the evening. I just boasted to Kal'tsit this morning that I would pay her a "bonus" after I finished the work. Tallulah had just completed the operation last night with great diligence. And the little deer at home can't be neglected too much.

The first question, which seemed simple, turned out to be surprisingly difficult...

It should not be difficult for ordinary people, but it is strange for this scumbag to face the problem.

"I'll call Amiya to join us for dinner later."

He coughed.

“…How many people are there with you for dinner tonight?”

Kal'tsit looked at him with a subtle look.

"Uh, three? Probably."

"..."

"If you're going to the cafeteria at mealtime, I suggest you reserve a vacant table in advance."

"I know……"

Anyway, next question.

He reached out and took the tablet from Kal'tsit's hand, turned on the screen and took a look.

"The first phase of the mining truck production line construction budget of 3 million is more than enough. Funds are not as tight as it seems."

"But only if you don't have other plans."

"Indeed. As expected, Kal'tsit, you really understand me."

As he sighed, he smiled and stretched out his arm to hold Kal'tsit's shoulders and kissed her calm face, then placed the tablet in front of the two of them.

There was still no expression on Kal'tsit's face. She just watched Luo Hang continue to distribute the forms and data on the tablet.

"I also have a super weapon modification plan in Sunset Hall. If this weapon can be put into use, it will be of great help when we arrive in Victoria.

Besides super weapons, conventional armaments also need to start planning production lines and stockpiling equipment, and each of these is much more expensive than mining vehicles.

"You'll probably need to invest ten years of Rhodes Island's turnover."

Kelsey said calmly.

"Just take it one step at a time."

Luo Hang smiled nonchalantly, "Rhode Island's industrial scale is not static. We now have two urban areas, and both the personnel and space are dozens of times larger than the size of a single ship."

As we all know, arms and medicine are highly profitable industries. As a pharmaceutical company, Rhodes Island has been on a path full of potential from the very beginning. The only question now is how to realize this potential.

“The production scale can be expanded, but how are you going to solve the market problem?”

Kal'tsit looked at Luo Hang beside her.

The man who was holding her with one arm was still staring at the tablet. His face, illuminated by the afterglow of the setting sun and the fluorescent light, was unknown what he was thinking about. The corners of his mouth were slightly raised, and the index finger of his controlling hand was lightly tapping the edge of the tablet.

All her doubts about problems and difficulties disappeared from her mind.

She was very familiar with the man's expression. After all, she really understood their doctor... At this time, she just needed to wait quietly for the most reliable person to give them the way and direction.

Luo Hang turned his head in front of her with a smile, raised his index finger and shook it:

"Have you forgotten that we now have quite a few capable friends in Leithania? This is just a small trade issue. I think I'll go talk to them tomorrow and the results shouldn't be too bad."

"You mean..."

Kal'tsit also realized what Luo Hang meant by "friend".

Although Rhodes Island has some offices and cooperation in Leithania, it is hard to say that they have many friends.

But that was only before.

Just last night, they had made a whole host of friends and connected throughout Leithania:

"The Queen's Voice?"

Luo Hang snapped his fingers with a smile.

"Yes."

As the direct agency of the Twin Queens to control Leitania, the Queen's Voice's status in Leitania is not inferior to that of the all-powerful Jinyiwei, even if it cannot be said to be.

Rhodes Island accepted the Sunset District as a generous gift from Her Majesty the Queen. The remaining members of the Witch King's army captured and killed last night were waiting for the Queen's voice to bring them back for their rewards. After all, Rhodes Island had no use for those people, so this allocation was a perfect win-win for both sides.

At this time, asking their friends for some "small favors" should not be a problem.

Kelsey also nodded.

"Then it seems I have to make a plan for production expansion."

"Ah, thank you for your hard work."

He simply dropped the tablet in his hand and put his arms around Kal'tsit. He rubbed his chin against Kal'tsit's fuzzy ears and continued to speak ambiguously, "Shall I come to your place tonight?"

"I have a job."

Kelsey had no expression on her face.

"Then finish it before bed."

"..."

Kelsey opened her mouth.

After all the hard work, are you █?

She was speechless for a while, but Luo Hang smiled and slapped her thigh.

"Then it's decided~!"

"I try my best."

She could only sigh.

"No problem. You know I'm aware of your work efficiency anyway."

This is a bit confusing, but while Kal'tsit understands Luo Hang, Luo Hang also understands her better than anyone else.

Kal'tsit fell silent for a moment.

However, Luo Hang did not forget that there was another part of his work.
