Chapter 640 I have money
Fubuki Group, the organization's base.
It is called a base, but in fact it is just a rented company. And it is not a particularly sophisticated company, but a small and shabby one.
You can tell this company is quite old just by looking at the walls. The white paint on the walls has turned slightly yellow and the entrance door is damaged, showing that it has obviously been used for many years.
Looking around, the only definite advantage is probably that it is cheap, because this company exudes the atmosphere of poverty from top to bottom.
Xia Yu, who was standing at the entrance of the stronghold, was silent. He first looked at the entrance of the stronghold carefully, then turned his head to look at Fubuki.
"Are you serious? This is the headquarters of the Fubuki Group?"
Facing Xia Yu's gaze, Chuixue blushed slightly and snorted coldly, "Humph, I'm not the kind of person who indulges in superficial hedonism. For me, practicality is enough."
In response to Fubuki's words, Xia Yu silently looked at the pearl necklace on Fubuki's neck and the fluffy coat she was wearing, which were obviously branded items.
As if she noticed Xia Yu's gaze, Fubuki blushed again, because she knew how unreliable her statement was.
"The philosophy of our organization is to spend money wisely. The base does not need to be too sophisticated, as long as it can be used."
Seeing that Fubuki was a little embarrassed, Eyelashes hurriedly explained that although the real reason was because they were short of funds, they couldn't just say that they were poor.
After all, it is a well-known organization that dominates Class B, so the reason should be more noble.
In response to Eyelash's words, Xia Yu shrugged and said that what you said is right, but it is really embarrassing to try hard to hide his financial difficulties.
In the extra story of the original work, the Fubuki group didn't even have the money to buy the business car similar to the Wuling Hongguang at the door, and only had a cheap rented car.
Then Fubuki felt that this was not a good idea. After all, relying on renting a car was too unreasonable. The Fubuki team needed a dedicated car.
So Fubuki directly ordered to raise 5 million yen (about 300,000 RMB) within a week to buy a car, and then the stupid members of the Fubuki group began their hard working days.
At that time, there were more than 30 people in the Fubuki group. These 30 people worked hard day and night for a week, and each of them worked several odd jobs at the same time.
After a week, all the staff had worked together to collect 3.5 million yen, and everyone was exhausted and in a very embarrassing situation.
However, Fubuki managed to collect 2 million yen by herself, causing the team members to think that she was doing something unspeakable to make money.
In fact, Fubuki only captured some fugitives with bounties on their heads, and earned 2 million yen so quickly in exchange for the bounties.
The Fubuki group finally managed to collect enough money and bought a fancy new car, which is the business car outside, and they have been using that car until now.
Although this extra episode is quite funny, we can also get two messages from it.
First, the finances of the Fubuki group have always been tight, and all group members have to go out to do odd jobs to earn money to buy a car; second, Fubuki's personal charm and leadership ability are actually quite strong. As soon as she gives an order, all group members will go out and no one will raise any questions or objections.
Getting back to the topic, after Eyelash explained, he led Xia Yu towards the interior of the stronghold.
The interior of the stronghold was similar to what Xia Yu had imagined, emphasizing simplicity and monotony. To put it in a nice way, it saved unnecessary expenses, but to put it in a bad way, there was not even enough money for a hardcover.
At this time, a member who stayed in the base temporarily quickly saw them and immediately ran over happily.
"Master Fubuki, you're back!"
The member who ran over was a petite girl wearing a black suit, a lily hair accessory on her head, and a tuft of light blue hair dyed on her forehead.
Nunchaku Lily, ranked 74th in Class B hero, can use the nunchaku . She chose to join the Fubuki group because she admires Fubuki and is one of Fubuki's confidants.
"Um."
Facing Lily's admiring gaze, Fubuki nodded in response.
After getting a response from Fubuki, Lily looked at the rest of the people, and then she saw Xia Yu.
"Are you Xia Yu, the Sun Knight ranked second in Class B? Hello, I'm Nunchaku Lily, ranked seventy-fourth in Class B. Welcome to join our Fubuki team."
Facing the girl's welcome, Xia Yu extended his hand and shook it, saying with a smile: "Hello, just call me Xia Yu, don't call me by my hero title, it sounds a bit awkward to me."
"Eh? Is that so?"
Hearing this, Lily became a little curious. She felt that this title was quite nice, much better than Eyelashes and Mountain Ape.
"Okay, then you can just call me Lily."
After greeting Lily who stayed at the base, Fubuki turned to look at Eyelash beside her and said, "Eyelash, talk to this new member about some matters of our Fubuki team, such as team member benefits, contact information, performance requirements, etc."
"yes!"
In response to Fubuki's request, Eyelashes nodded. When Fubuki was away, he was in charge of running the Fubuki Group, and he was also the staff officer of the organization.
If there is anyone who is best suited to explain the rules of the Fubuki Group to the newcomers, he is undoubtedly the most suitable person.
On the other side, Xia Yu, who was looking around the stronghold, heard this and hurriedly walked up to Fubuki and stopped her.
Seeing Xia Yu blocking her way, Chuixue frowned slightly: "Do you have anything else to say?"
"Of course there is something."
Xia Yu looked serious and said in a persuasive tone: "Master Fubuki, don't you think our organization is a little too unpresentable?"
"Not only do we not have a well-equipped base, but we also only have one commercial vehicle for travel, the one outside. How can we get to the place where the danger occurs in time?"
"Since we want to build our own reputation, we must not only present a bright and beautiful image to the outside world, but we must also not skimp on internal matters."
Hearing what Xia Yu said, Fubuki frowned even more. But when she thought that the man opposite not only had something on her, but was also as strong as her, and could be trained as the ace of their Fubuki group, she felt that she couldn't just brush it off like that.
After a few seconds of silence, Fubuki sighed and simply stated the reason: "Do you think I don't want to? But our only source of funding is the salary issued by the Hero Association and the bonus for special contributions."
"Although the money is not small, if a team member is injured, he or she will need treatment, which will be deducted from the organization's funds. In addition, the daily organizational expenses are also not small, so we can only save money in some areas."
After explaining the situation within the organization thoroughly, Fubuki breathed a sigh of relief. After all, these situations were no longer secrets.
Since the other party has joined the Fubuki group, it will probably not take long for him to understand these things. Instead of waiting for him to find out on his own, it is better to explain it clearly as soon as possible.
"Okay, I think I understand."
After listening to Fubuki's complaints, Xia Yu nodded to indicate that he understood. Since the finances were tight, let him use money to slowly take over the Fubuki Group.
He doesn't have the ability to steal the house through conspiracy or trickery. Since he wants to sideline Fubuki, he must first make other members of the organization recognize him and believe that he can lead the Fubuki group to go further.
Besides, he doesn't necessarily have to lead the Fubuki group on the path of being a hero. It doesn't matter which path he takes. As long as he can make the organization members respect him more than Fubuki himself, he will have successfully sidelined Fubuki.
Thinking of this, Xia Yu reached into his pocket and took out a card, waved it and said, "Since I have joined the Fubuki Group, I naturally have the responsibility to make this place better. This little money can be regarded as my friendly sponsorship."
"First, get a few high-end commercial vehicles. Having only one car is too shabby. Secondly, change to a base with complete facilities. At least the level should be improved. To be honest, this base is too shabby. A thief would cry if he came in."
"I will think of some ways to make money later . You can use this money first. It is enough to take care of what I just mentioned. Remember, our Fubuki Group must be stylish and classy."
Listening to Xia Yu talking and the card between his fingers, Chuixue swallowed and asked with a hoarse voice.
"What...what do you want to do?"
"Didn't I tell you? I want to make the Fubuki Group better."
Xia Yu grinned, walked forward and put the card into the pocket on Eyelash's chest, then patted him on the shoulder and said, "Go ahead and use it. The password is four fours. Don't save money for me. I have money."
"Please inform me after you have set up the new base. I will go back and think of some ways to help the Fubuki Group make money. That's all for now. Bye."
After finishing speaking, Xia Yu turned around, waved his hand, and strode towards the exit.
He was indeed rich, otherwise he wouldn't be able to own a property in Q City. However, the card just now contained half of his savings, and he still felt a little sad to give it away.
But there is no gain without sacrifice. If he does not show his courage, his decisions and words will probably not be taken seriously.
Only by demonstrating one's own strength can one inspire awe in others and then gain their approval of his ideas.
While thinking about this, Xia Yu strode outside. Only when his back disappeared did Fubuki and the others turn their gazes away.
"Master Fubuki, what should we do?"
Seeing that Xia Yu really left, Eyelash took out the card that Xia Yu had inserted in his pocket, then came to Fubuki and asked.
Although he was moved by what Xia Yu said just now, this matter was actually quite big, so he still had to ask the leader of the organization, Fubuki, to confirm it.
"The new member is so handsome, Master Fubuki. Let's just agree with what he just said."
Before Fubuki could speak, Lily clenched her hands and her eyes seemed to turn into stars.
As the saying goes, a man looks the most handsome when he spends money.
The way Xia Yu spoke freely while holding the card just now greatly increased Lily's impression of him. Although they have become accustomed to the financially constrained organization, who doesn't want to make the organization they are in better?
Seeing Lily said so, Fubuki suddenly smiled and said, "Well, since he is willing to spend the money... Eyelashes, this matter will be left to you."
"yes!"
After giving the order, Fubuki thought about Xia Yu's appearance again and suddenly realized that this person didn't seem so annoying.
