Episode 252 brother? (2)
Spacious conference hall.
“hmm… … .”
The meisters flinched at the low groan-like sound.
They didn’t know that their eyes would fall on Lois, who was sitting at the head of the conference hall.
No, to be exact, in the small notebook in Lois’ hand.
Because of what was written in that small notebook, unimaginable things happened in the past and how much hardship they went through.
Sarak- Sarak-.
The sound of paper moving quietly was so scary.
The meisters were shocked.
Such a scary time passes by.
“Well, this is almost everything.”
“Phew… … .”
As soon as Lois finished speaking, sighs of relief came out from all over.
But even for a moment.
“Okay, then shall we start the meeting?”
The meisters’ eyes became anxious again.
Two months ago, the rotten part of the tower was cut out due to the sudden appearance of the tower owner.
However, much of the space was left empty, and Lois completely tore this part apart.
As a result, the existing organization was completely collapsed and a total of seven new departments were created.
New Product Research Department.
Quality Control Department.
Technical Management Department.
Production Management Department.
Sales Management Department.
Financial Management Department.
Security Management Department.
Key departments that will make Tower of Desire the strongest in the future.
Meisters who survived the bloody purge were selected as the leaders.
And at the end of each month, an opportunity is provided for the managers of each department to report to the tower owner.
‘Oh, I hope today passes safely… … .’
‘please… … !’
It was an event for the prosperity and well-being of the tower, but the end of the month was nothing short of scary for the Meisters.
This is because at the meeting at the end of last month, I saw Andres’ nose bleeding due to an incorrect report.
“Start by watching.”
At Royce’s solemn order, the end-of-month situation report began.
The first was Lorna, who was the head of the financial management department, the department that Lois cared about the most.
“then… “I will begin reporting the end-of-month accounts to the financial management department.”
“try.”
“First of all, the processing of the assets of the Marquis Sairon family, which was previously carried out, has been completed. Total assets… … .”
The sound that came out of Lorna’s mouth was very surprising.
The story is that all of the assets of the Marquess of Siron were disposed of and returned to the Tower of Desire.
This may have been shocking to others, but it was only part of the conditions Royce demanded from the Meldenic royal family.
Confiscation of the Marquis de Cyron’s property.
The right to life and death for the Marquis’ family.
From Lois’s perspective, these were things she deserved.
So, could this be all that Royce requested from the Meldenic royal family?
Lois, who was listening to Lorna’s report, suddenly asked.
“You’re doing great. What is the reaction of the people in the territory? “Are you dissatisfied with the situation where the owner of the territory has changed?”
Lorna answered that question with a bright smile.
“I’m in the best mood in the world. There can be no complaints.”
Another thing Lois wanted from the royal family.
That was the disposition of the Cyron territory.
With the fall of the Marquis of Sairon, the existing lord, the central nobles were scheduled to come down to fill the vacancy in the Siron fiefdom.
However, Lois demanded that Cyron territory be given away.
The Prince of Meldenic must have expected this to some extent, and handed Siron over to the Tower of Desire without a word.
For a marquis who had ruled Cyron for generations, it was an absurd ending.
However, on the other hand, the Tower of Desire was able to transform from a single castle tower into a huge group with a territory.
Moreover, the owner of the Tower of Desire was even promised the title of marquis in charge of Cyron territory.
This is not a single-ranking noble, but a hereditary noble with the right to inherit the title.
In other words, anyone who becomes the owner of the desired tower can become a marquis.
As the news spread throughout Cyron, the people of the territory cheered.
‘The Lord of the Tower of Desire is our lord from now on!’
Aside from everything else, people were greatly relieved that the Tower of Desire remained in Cyron.
Soon after, the owner of the Tower of Desire declared that he would only receive half the taxes for three years, so there were endless voices praising the owner of the Tower of Desire.
Tax relief for up to 3 years.
I wondered how Lois allowed the amount of taxes collected from Cyron territory to be reduced by half, but if you look behind the scenes, you might naturally say that it was justified.
A clear example of this could be seen through Lois’ question that immediately followed.

“What do you think, Douglas? Are new products being made well? You know, right? It’s been 30 years. “We need to make the most of the 30 years of tax exemption.”
If Young Ji-min had heard it, he would have been shocked.
It was like that.
Although he obtained the Cyron territory and title, Royce did not stop there and requested tax exemption from the Meldenic Kingdom.
And that’s for 50 years.
No wonder the Prince of Meldenic jumped up and down on the spot.
There was a fight for a while, but Lois had the guts to tell him to hit her if he wouldn’t listen, so the prince had to be satisfied with reducing the tax exemption to 30 years.
Grinding your teeth so hard that both molars will come out.
A whopping 30 years of tax exemption.
As a result, all the profits made by producing transcendental equipment that cannot be sold because they are not available belong to the Tower of Desire.
I couldn’t easily imagine how much that amount was.
The only thing certain is that it will be an astronomical amount.
Will I only receive half of the estate tax for 3 years?
That was just something Lois, as a newly appointed lord, did to show off to gain some public support.
However, it is natural for taxes to decrease and profits to fall.
Accordingly, Royce has recently been improving its new product research department.
He said he would make a lot of money for 30 years by making new products.
Douglas and Harold had to worry day and night because of Lois’s bullying.
However, the results were not as good as their efforts.
Douglas said with a dark expression.
“that… “Have you seen the draft I gave you earlier?”
“I saw it.”
“How was it?”
“I heard it’s trash?”
“uh… hmm… Ah yes… … .”
Douglas’ face rotted.
It was always like this.
If you put a lot of thought into creating a draft of a new product and submitting it, the answer you get from Royce is… … .
‘Sell this trash for money? If it were you, would you buy it?’
… It was.
There are already dozens of new products that have been rejected.
‘Keu… If not this, what should I make in the future?’
It would be nice if inspiration could flow infinitely… … .
Even if that were the case, I couldn’t guarantee that I could bring something that would satisfy Lois’ sky-high eyes.
Lois clicked her tongue when she saw Douglas and Harold looking anxious.
“What on earth are you worrying about? “Don’t you have anything to offer?”
Harold, who was watching closely, quietly expressed his opinion.
“I… But is there really a need to create something new? The transcendental machine that is being produced now would be enough… … .”
Of course, the answer that came back was a scolding.
“Tsk, that’s stupid. It is certainly true that our tower’s transcendental machine has far superior performance compared to others. But how long do you think that will last?”
“… … .”
“It is very difficult to pioneer a new path, but those who follow the path we have created will reach our location more easily than that.”
“… … .”
“In order to avoid being overtaken by latecomers, we must steadily increase our technological capabilities and lead the world’s trends with new products.”
“… “I will keep that in mind.”
“No, so you don’t have anything innovative? “Not the trash with a claw arm attached to a second-class transcendental machine!”
“Keuhum!”
Harold, who had a pincer arm attached to his transcendental machine, blushed and cleared his throat.
“Hey, tsk.”
In the end, Lois clicked her tongue with a disapproving look on her face when no one could come up with an answer.
“uh?”
A thought crossed his mind.
“Oh, right! That’ll work! “Why didn’t I think of this sooner?”
“yes? “What do you mean?”
“Can’t we just make a first-class transcendental machine and sell it?”
“… … .”
There was silence in the audience as Lois’ bright story was heard.
In a situation where they were just looking at each other, Douglas opened his mouth.
“I… Tower owner.”
“why.”
“that is… “There is no level 1 transcendence.”
“What do you mean?”
“Due to technical limitations, it is impossible to produce a first-class transcendental machine.”
“No, then why did you leave level 1 when dividing the levels?”
“That’s why I set it aside because someday I might create a first-class transcendental machine. But with current technology… It cannot be produced.”
“Tell me in detail. “How is it impossible?”
“hmm… I once created a prototype that could be called a first-class transcendental machine. Me, Floria, Erica… And Victor worked together to create it. In fact, it is no exaggeration to say that a lifetime of research by the four of us was incorporated into that transcendent period.”
“however?”
“First of all, the materials used are enough to make dozens of second-class transcendental aircraft. Still, I managed to make it, but the problem is… “We only created the main body of the Transcendental Machine, but did not actually operate it.”
“why?”
“There was a ridiculous lack of power. Because our calculations could not generate the power to drive the theoretical first-class transcendental machine… “Production of the first-class transcendental machine has been temporarily suspended.”
“power? “Approximately how much power is needed?”
“In theory, we need a power unit capable of operating 30 second-class transcendental aircraft at the same time.”
The Meisters groaned at Douglas’ story.
This was because it was the first time they had heard that the Grand Meisters had attempted to create a first-class transcendental machine.
Also, it is a power device that can operate 30 second-class transcendental machines at the same time.
I could immediately understand why Douglas said that it was impossible to produce a first-class transcendental machine with current technology.
However, the actual target of persuasion, Lois, reacted differently.
“At best? “What else can I say?”
“Not only that, but the technology to create a power device of that level… uh?”
Douglas’ expression hardened as he explained the situation.
His face changes every moment.
As a result, Douglas’ face brightened.
“Yeah, that’s right! “The owner of the tower was there!”
The production of a first-class transcendental machine was aborted due to technical limitations of the power unit that would power the transcendental machine.
But that was when Lois wasn’t around.
The being who created the origins of the modern transcendental power plant.
Isn’t he standing right in front of me?
As if reading Douglas’s thoughts, Lois smiled and rummaged around in subspace.
“see… “Where was it?”
A moment later, a large piece of paper came out of his arms.
“receive.”
“This, this.”
“Is this your first time seeing the design drawings?”
“… … .”
gulp-.
Douglas swallowed dryly.
He opened the drawing wide open, revealing a picture with a complex shape inside.
Although the people currently in the conference room were somewhat sophisticated in terms of technology, they were astonished by the detail, sophistication, and intricacies of the drawings.
At least you have to be as good as Douglas to have the eyes to recognize it.
Of course, he didn’t know the details either.
Douglas, who had been studying the drawing for a while, asked with trembling eyes.
“this… “I think it will be over 30 times the output of the existing second-class transcendental machine.”
“Still, you’ve got some pretty good eyesight, huh? “By my calculations, it’s probably about 32 times higher than a level 2 transcendence level?”
“32 times?!”
“Why are you surprised? “It’s an old power unit that was disposed of.”
“Is this what you mean?”
“Huh, it must have been something made about 50 years ago?”
Douglas and the others all looked dumbfounded.
Lois asked them.
“With that, you can make a level 1 transcendental machine, right?”
“Chu, that’s enough! No, it’s full and overflowing!”
“I know so much. So, make it with reduced performance.”
“yes?”
Lois was slightly annoyed by the questions that kept coming back.
“Do you want to stay in business for a long time? At first, the performance was reduced and the first-class transcendental machine was released on the basis of twice the level of the second-grade transcendental machine. After that, as the performance was gradually improved, the price was also raised and sold. After worrying about it for 30 years, we finally released a truly first-class transcendental machine.”
The means of doing business were also means, but in theory, a first-class transcendental machine was equivalent to dozens of second-grade transcendental planes, and if you were a good pilot, you could reach the same level as a top-tier skilled machine.
It would be impossible to just produce such an aircraft without any measures.
‘Well, even if I wanted to produce a first-class transcendental machine, I wouldn’t be able to.’
If he didn’t help, Top’s current technology would be able to create a complete first-class transcendental machine at most once in 10 years.
Mass production of first-class transcendental machines was still a thing of the distant future, but there was still no harm in being careful.
“ah! All right!”
“Do I need to tell you about lowering performance?”
“You don’t have to worry about that!”
“Okay, then let me know when the first-level transcendental form appears… “Erica.”
“yes!”
“You spread the news everywhere, saying that our Tower of Desire has started producing a first-class transcendental machine.”
“All right!”
Perhaps when this news spreads, the autumn continent… No, the whole world will be shaken.
Erica and Paula in charge of sales management.
The two nodded excitedly.
“Then next.”
After that, reports continued in the conference room.
Then, it ended with an explanation of how the traitors in the tower and the people of the Marquis family were treated at the forced labor site.
At that time, I thought the situation would be resolved.
Lois suddenly spoke up.
“Now that I think about it, today is it?”
“yes?”
“Transcendence Hall opening of school.”
“ah! yes I… By the way, tower owner.”
Erica asked slightly worried.
“why.”
“Is it really okay if you don’t send a meister to the academy?”
This time, as the Tower of Desire faced a cataclysm, changes occurred in the Transcendental Academy.
Along with that, several problems arose, one of which was that there was no manpower to send to the Transcendental Studies Hall as a professor due to the lack of meisters.
Lois responded to Erica’s concerns indifferently.
“Just send a first-class apprentice. “From my experience, sending a meister to teach students is a serious waste of manpower.”
It was the testimony and order of the owner of the tower, who had attended the Transcendental Learning Center as a student.
Who would reject this?
When everyone nodded, Lois stood up.
Douglas asked as he saw Lois picking up the envelope she had left next to her.
“Where are you going?”
“Transcendence Hall.”
“yes? “Why are you going there all of a sudden?”
As everyone looked at them with questioning eyes, Lois responded with a grin.
“There are people to meet and things to deliver.”
“… … ?”
“And by the way… “I have things to take care of.”
Lois leaves the conference room, leaving behind those mysterious words.
Paula trembled as she looked at the back.
“What on earth are you dealing with?” … .”
Because of what happened at the Tower of Desire, I automatically got chills just by hearing the word ‘process’.
Especially since it was Lois who said the word ‘process’, Paula’s chills were bound to continue for a while.
