Chapter 73: Company x Construction
"So, have you chosen where to build your headquarters?"
After making a plan, Ilumi asked Kim Bradley.
"I decided to set up my headquarters in Esmeraldas, Pegasus, a small city with a sparse population."
Pegrose, whose full name is Pegrose United, is positioned in the hunter world as Australia in its previous life.
Pegasus United Nations is a developed capitalist country with a highly urbanized population, with nearly half of its citizens living in the country's two largest cities.
More than 90% of the more than 7 million square kilometers of land is uninhabited and a desert.
Yilumi opened the world map on her computer and frowned slightly.
If Kim Bradley chooses to build the headquarters here, the labor cost will be very high, which is not cost-effective in detail.
"The headquarters focuses on research and undertakes less than 10% of the production tasks."
Kim Bradley noticed the change in Ilumi's expression and immediately explained.
When production needs to be expanded in the future, places with low labor costs such as the Lokallio Republic and the Haas Republic will be the areas that take on the main production tasks.
"Let's go take a look first."
Ilumi and Kim Bradley turned off their computers, got up, and walked out of the room.
"Everyone, pack all your things and apply for business visas. We are going to Peggrose."
Kim Bradley said kindly to everyone in the living room. Different from the image Ilumi usually saw, Kim Bradley at this time was completely a leader.
"It's about to take action so soon, I'm so excited that I can't help myself!"
A girl with long pink hair immediately jumped up from the sofa, with a strand of long blue hair hanging from her forehead. She was estimated to be around twenty years old.
She is a member of Kim Bradley's team, specializing in the study of various ancient texts, and currently serves as a linguist and translator in the team.
"Stop jumping, Fanny, pack your things quickly."
Others also looked excited. There are currently only seven people in this team, and including Ilumi and Kim Bradley, there are only nine people.
But just these people include pharmacists, botanists, pathologists, microbiologists, linguists, and archaeologists.
And, a martial artist.

One week later.
Ilumi and Kim Bradley, a group of nine people, packed up all their belongings, applied for business visas, and took a flying boat to the largest city in the United Nations, Patiros.
Patirous, on the southeastern coast of Pegasus United, is the capital of Sokhna state and a world-famous international metropolis.
"There don't seem to be many people."
However, as an international metropolis, with a population of less than five million, it has a land area of more than 10,000 square kilometers, which is a typical land with few people.
Therefore, the nine Ilumi people who came from the Tarta Kingdom did not feel the crowds in most big cities.
On the contrary, because of the sparse population, I feel the quiet beauty of the metropolis.
"It's already very late today, let's leave tomorrow."
Yilumi looked up at the sky. It was already evening.
As the sun sets in the west, the golden sunset shines on the international city of Patiros, giving this quiet city a golden coat.
At night, Ilumi and others rested in an outdoor cafe, admiring the beautiful night view of the city in Patyruse.
“A rare leisure time.”
Ilumi sat on a comfortable coffee chair, savoring the brief tranquility and warmth.
Cities in each country have their own characteristics. It’s hard to say who is superior and who is inferior. It is also a good enjoyment to experience the beauty of various places in the world.
A group of nine people stayed in a five-star hotel, had a good night's rest, and got up slowly at eight o'clock the next morning.
They didn't come here for tourism, they had business to do.
After breakfast in the restaurant on the first floor of the hotel, we went to the lobby to wait.
Kim Bradley made a phone call, and thirty minutes later, a chubby man in a suit appeared in the hotel lobby, panting and coming to Kim Bradley's side.
Ilumi glanced at him with curiosity, and Kim Bradley introduced him.
"This is Hamer, a native, our agent in Pegrose."
Hammer immediately bowed and nodded to Ilumi with a mocking smile, and looked at Kim Bradley with obvious awe in his eyes.
I don't know what Kim Bradley did to him to make him so respectful.
"How are things going?"
Ilumi nodded slightly, and Kim Bradley looked at Hammer, who was sweating profusely, and asked in a deep voice.
"As per your request, a piece of land has been purchased in the suburbs of Biluo City, and the documents from the local government have been approved."
"As long as you transfer the next batch of funds, the engineering team can start construction immediately."
Kim Bradley stood up, came to Hammer, patted him on the shoulder, and smiled like a great president.
"Very good, you did a good job."
"I was thinking about how I would handle it if you made a mess."
Hammer was patted on the shoulder by Kim Bradley. Every time he was patted, his body would tremble. Fine beads of sweat continued to appear on his forehead, and he kept wiping it with a handkerchief.
"Let's go."
Ilumi also got up. The journey from Patirus to a small rural town like Biluo City is hundreds of kilometers, and it usually takes more than two hours to get there.
But Kim Bradley specifically asked Hammer to buy several brand-name cars locally for transportation, and also hired some temporary employees.
Wherever there is money, there is God. The God who has no money will kneel down and kiss your toes.
When Kim Bradley spent a lot of money to open the way, the problems were no longer problems, and the problems that existed would become no problems.
Using Hamer, a local, as an agent, and supplementing it with money, can have a powerful effect in accelerating policy approval.
After two hours, Ilumi and his party finally arrived in Biluo City, a small rural town close to Patiros.
There are no high-rise buildings. As far as the eye can see, there are some single-family or duplex villas on both sides of the street.
It can be seen that the living standards of the people here are pretty good.
"This is it."
The car continued to drive forward for ten minutes and came to a stop in a wasteland, and everyone got out of the car one after another.
"When can construction be started?"
Ilumi looked at the vast wasteland in front of him and asked Agent Hammer.
"As long as your funds are in place, construction can start this morning."
Hammer nodded and bowed, looking extremely flattering.
"Give you half a year to build up the general production areas."
Kim Bradley looked down at Hammer and gave him an accurate number.
"Ok, no problem."
Hammer nodded quickly and wiped the sweat on his forehead with his handkerchief.
