Why is my job panel in an anime style?

Chapter 155 Procurement is an unavoidable part of the Federal Army's operations.

In the silence, the humanoid creature, along with its subordinates, followed behind the somewhat stiff puppet and boarded the flying vehicle that had come to pick them up.

"This newly appointed governor is quite arrogant."

"Perhaps it's their first time dealing with an army group, and they haven't quite figured out their place yet."

Inside the vehicle, the humanoid creature listened to his subordinates' discussion with a blank expression, without uttering a word to stop them.

Although he hadn't met the person in question yet, he was already starting to feel that things were getting a bit tricky.

'That Dono guy really left me with a mess.'

The flying vehicle sped along and soon left the central city, arriving at a manor.

Looking at the massive metal palace in the center of the manor, the humanoid creature finally showed a slight change in expression.

If he remembered correctly, this was where that old man Dono originally settled.

At this moment, a woman dressed as a maid came out of the palace and said in a stiff tone, "Please follow me, everyone. The governor is waiting for you inside."

Still a puppet.
The humanoid creature followed behind the maid, staring at her back as if lost in thought.

The group was quickly led into the main hall, where a young man who was studying something with his head down came into view.

The maid didn't say much, and after leading everyone there, she bowed and left the main hall.

And so, the main hall fell silent for a moment.

After a long while, the young man finally spoke up and asked, "What's your name?"

As soon as he finished speaking, he looked up at the group of people.

Looking into the other's bright right eye, the humanoid creature did not answer: "The situation at the front is critical. I request that Governor Li expedite the handover of supplies."

"hehe."

Upon hearing this, Li Ang smiled noncommittally, but in his heart he was thinking about the puppet's performance just now.

The intelligence level is still insufficient; the few sentences it spoke were all pre-entered.

And so, the hall fell silent once more.

Without orders from their superiors, the subordinates would certainly not speak up rashly.

After a long while, Li Ang suddenly asked, "The supplies that Dono collected earlier were meant to be given to you, right?"

He emphasized the word 'you,' the implication of which is self-evident.

Upon hearing this, the humanoid creature's expression froze for a moment, then he ordered his subordinates to go out and wait for him.

Once only the two of them were left in the hall, he spoke with a hint of helplessness, "Just call me Martin. How did Governor Li figure that out?"

When Martin asked, Li Ang shook his head slightly: "A friend told me."

This was a lie; in fact, it was a test he was making based on the other party's attitude. After all, the officer from the 9000th Army Group was not as tough as he had imagined.

If Dono's advance delivery of supplies was truly the military commander's intention, then the other party's attitude wouldn't be so 'weak'; they would have already taken advantage of him and demanded that he hand over the supplies immediately.

Li Ang didn't expect that his slight probing would lead to the other party exploding.

What Li Ang didn't know was that Martin also had his own unspoken grievances, after all, in his view, the little dragon cub opposite him was a young powerhouse with considerable potential and a mysterious background.

Unlike Donovan, he didn't want to offend this guy of unknown origin.

Since we didn't scare them at first, we might as well talk things out early on to avoid any unpleasantness.

Thinking of this, Martin said in a high-sounding manner, "Considering that Governor Li has only been in office for a short time, we will let this batch of supplies go, but please prepare the supplies for the end of the year in advance."

As soon as he finished speaking, he prepared to turn and leave.

However, at that moment, Li Ang suddenly called out to him: "Please wait, Mr. Martin, you must have only recently joined the 9000th Army Group, right?"

Upon hearing this, the androgynous officer's face darkened instantly, as if a sore spot had been touched.

He wanted to say something, but didn't know how to refute it.

After witnessing this scene, Li Ang knew that he had probably guessed correctly.

The reasons are quite simple. First, the other side has been keeping a close eye on Mobiras, a relatively unimportant tourist planet. Second, the other side just sent its men away, which means that it has no trustworthy confidants in the army group.

Of course, all of the above are just Li Ang's speculations. As for why he called Martin back...
"Although I can't provide supplies, I have another business opportunity, Mr. Martin. Would you like to consider it?"

As he spoke, he took out a can of Clear Cool Type 1 and tossed it to Martin.

The androgynous officer took the metal can, momentarily confused.

"Mr. Martin, you should be in charge of logistics in the 9000th Army Group, right? How are your relationships with the army group's suppliers now?"

Upon hearing this, Martin immediately realized what was happening, and his expression turned strange.

He glanced at the metal can in his hand, then at Li Ang, and couldn't help but ask, "You want to become a new supplier? Just because of this?"

As he spoke, he shook the metal can in his hand.

Seeing Martin's somewhat speechless expression, Li Ang gestured for him to take a bite first: "Mr. Martin, why don't you try it first?" Martin didn't hesitate and immediately opened the metal can and took a bite, then frowned slightly.

After a long pause, he shook his head: "I am indeed in charge of logistics, but I am not the only one in charge of logistics."

“The military is currently procuring products from Secret Blood Company. Although Secret Blood Company has nothing to do with me, your product is not something I can bet on.”

His words were very straightforward.

Martin knew exactly what Leon wanted to do: to make money off the Federation together.

unfortunately
The functional beverage market has already been exploited, and the current "Clear and Refreshing Type 1" is not enough to convince the 9000 Group Army to change suppliers.

Of course, Martin's unwillingness to put in the effort was also a contributing factor.

However, after hearing what the other party said, Li Ang smiled and said, "Hehe, this is just the first generation product. A new model will be developed soon."

He didn't expect to finalize the cooperation with the 9000th Army Group today, as that was unrealistic.

Moreover, the issue of the yield of Qinglie fruit has not yet been resolved. Even if a cooperation is finalized, given the current size of the Morabis Plant Federation Chamber of Commerce, it will not be able to supply the needs of the 9000-strong army group.

Leon only made this decision on a whim after deducing Martin's predicament, and even if it fails in the end, it won't have much impact on him.

Upon hearing this, Martin frowned and pondered for a moment before exchanging contact information with Li Ang.

Although he still did not agree to Li Ang's request for cooperation, this move indicated that he could contact him if there were any further developments.

Before leaving, perhaps because Li Ang had become a potential partner, Martin finally couldn't help but say, "If you want to make energy drinks, you'd better be wary of Secret Blood."

“Those vampires are no pushovers; you can’t deal with them with your current strength.”

However, after considering the identity of the dragon before him, Martin paused and added, "But you don't need to worry too much, they probably won't attack you directly."

".perhaps."

After leaving these instructions, the officer led his men away from Mobiras.

In the starport, Li Ang watched the starship gradually disappear from sight, and murmured to himself:

'The Secret Blood Company?'

This wasn't the first time he'd heard of this company made up of vampires.

Martin is right. If he wants to expand and strengthen the Mobiras Plant Union through the Clear-Blood Type 1, he will inevitably clash with the Secret Blood Company.

Even if he didn't have designs on the army group's supplier positions, he would still do this.

The fact that Blood Secret Company has been able to become a leading enterprise in the Starfield is not only due to the excellence of its products, but also inseparable from the strength of its behind-the-scenes boss.

'Fifth energy level? Or sixth energy level?'

Li Ang was unaware of this.

He took a deep breath and calmed himself down.

Fortunately, for a long time, Blood Secret Corporation should not notice the existence of Plant Union, after all, Plant Union is still in its infancy.

As for giving up making energy drinks...
Don't be silly, there will be competitors in everything you do, even Li Ang's alchemy workshop is no exception.

Moreover, Plant Union doesn't just sell energy drinks; it's just that Refreshing Type 1 is more suitable as an initial product.

Ultimately, it's because the vegetative state patients who can operate hundreds of machines per person are just too useful.

At that moment, several messages popped up on the career panel.

[Major Event: The Plant Alliance Has Come to an End]

After a long period of time, the plants on Morabis finally welcomed their true savior.

[Whether it will be heaven or hell in the future is currently unpredictable.]

[You can now embark on a new journey (29 days, 23 hours, and 59 minutes)].

Just as Li Ang had guessed, the matter with Dono was only truly over after Martin's problem was dealt with.

"A month...that's a bit tight."

Unfortunately, unlike his previous solitary state, this time Li Ang needs to arrange everything properly before he can embark on a new journey.

'I wonder what kind of world this time will be.'

With this thought in mind, he turned and left Starport.

　There's one more chapter, so don't wait any longer. I'll post it if I can finish writing it, and if not, I'll post four chapters tomorrow.

　　However, I see that many readers are interested in the author's blind date experiences, so I'll say a few more words.

　　Actually, the blind date today only said that she liked camping. The author found out that she went out with men by looking through her WeChat Moments. It just goes to show that everyone should be careful.

　　Incidentally, what impressed the author most about her was actually her nasolabial folds, which somewhat resembled those of Uchiha Itachi.
　　The author has been on quite a few blind dates over the years, and may share some of the strange ones encountered later.
