Chapter 228: I’ll Give You Ten Since You’re Pitiful
Bai Li’s voice was gentle, and his attitude was much better than before.
Of course, Wu Mo was not a person who held grudges. The reason he had joined the research team was to increase his own strength and benefit the cultivators and soldiers on the front lines.
The Hunter Bureau was one of the major organizations in the military. They had always been responsible for hunting powerful beasts that could endanger the city. How could Wu Mo deliberately hide anything?
“Don’t worry, Director Bai. I’ll also publish a related paper and disclose all of these technologies for our researchers in the Nine Provinces to learn at any time.”
Wu Mo’s words immediately made Bai Li look at him in a new light.
No wonder the fifth Research Department treated Wu Mo like a treasure.
From the looks of it, not only was he capable, but he also had a rare sense of responsibility and mission.
The emergence of new technology was bound to be accompanied by research and development day and night.
If this were to happen to an ordinary researcher, they would definitely try to apply for a patent and make money from it.
Even if they were willing to share, they would definitely receive the corresponding benefits.
However, Wu Mo had said without hesitation that he would share all the technology.
The difference between the two was obvious.
Thinking of this, Bai Li immediately raised his thumb and praised him. “As expected, you’re so ambitious.”
Chu Li, who was standing at the side, also looked at Wu Mo with admiration.
During his negotiation with the other party, his view of researchers had completely changed.
He had previously thought that every protected researcher would think highly of themselves and disdained talking to others. They also had a sour and rotten attitude, which was disgusting.
However, after his conversation with Wu Mo, he finally understood that he was the one who had judged people first.
Not only were there pedantic antiques in the Research Department, but there were also new forces that were open-minded and progressive with a true scientific research spirit.
When he thought of this, Chu Li’s heart was filled with regret. His previous attitude toward Wu Mo had not been very good. Now that he had offended him, it would be as difficult as ascending to the heavens if he wanted to get another light sabee.
However, Wu Mo quickly noticed the change in his expression. He calmly said, “Don’t worry. When the Spirit Wave Sword is mass-produced, I will give it to the soldiers who defend the city and their homes.”
Hearing Wu Mo’s reply, Chu Li’s starry eyes immediately flashed with a glimmer of light.
“Is this true?” Chu Li asked subconsciously. His expression was anxious and he was eager to know Wu Mo’s answer. At this moment, he no longer had the dignity of a superior.
The cultivators who were responsible for escorting saw that the two bosses were completely controlled by this Wu Mo and couldn’t help but be shocked at this person’s forging ability and methods.
In the middle of the crowd, Wu Mo nodded seriously.
“Don’t worry, I mean what I say.”
Wu Mo gave him a confirmation and Chu Li’s lips immediately curled into a smile.
“Okay, it’s a deal. I don’t want much. Just give me 100 of the laser swords in your hands,” Chu Li subconsciously said as he was excited.
Hearing this, Wu Mo immediately rolled his eyes.
“Do you think they’re cabbages? You’re asking for 100 of them. These weapons are extremely precise, and it’s very difficult to mass-produce them. It’s already good enough that I can give you 10.”
Chu li did not show any anger at Wu Mo’s words. Instead, he scratched his head in embarrassment.
“Alright then, 10 it is.”
He thought about the power of the Spirit Wave Sword that Wu Mo had demonstrated earlier.
Chu Li felt that even if there were only 10 of them, it would still be a good boost to their city defense army’s combat strength.
In the future, with these weapons, the safety of the city would definitely be better controlled.
Soon, the big shots had satisfied their purpose for coming.
Many family investors had also signed contracts with the Research Department.
They would invest as the starting capital for mass production, and after the subsequent mass production was completed, they would get 20% of the profit.
This process would last about three months to half a year.
Due to the reputation of the fifth Research Department, the investors signed the contract without any hesitation.
On the other side, after settling everything, many of the small leaders had already left.
As for Bai Li and Chu Li, after having a conversation with Wu Mo, they also left with a smile.
He seemed to be very satisfied with his trip to the fifth Research Department.
After attending this welcoming meeting, Wu Mo also received nearly ¥50,000,000 in start-up capital, and the cost of the subsequent construction of the workshop would be paid by the Research Department.
As for the Research Department’s request for military funds from the top, it was not something that Wu Mo should care about.
After he confirmed that the power of the laser sword was not bad, he was ready to continue to improve the second version.
The power of the first version of the laser sword had indeed reached its upper limit, but the duration was too short. The normal pulse effect was not very threatening to high-level cultivators and beasts.
Therefore, Wu Mo planned to double the duration of the first two attacks.
However, this also meant that he would need to spend on more expensive materials and a better prototype.
Similarly, this would require a lot of time and related technology.
After seeing the leaders leave, Wu Mo also prepared to go back and improve the Spirit Wave Sword.
However, he had only taken two steps when he was stopped by a familiar voice behind him.
Wu Mo turned around and realized that the person who had called out to him was one of the higher-ups who had spoken up for him earlier, Liao Dongcheng.
it had been more than two months since he had last seen General Liao Dongcheng at the test field.
However, the scene today was too grand, and General Liao Dongcheng did not have much say.
“General Liao, thank you for speaking up for me earlier.”
Wu Mo stepped forward and bowed.
Liao Dongcheng immediately stepped forward to help him up and said with a sigh, “Wu Mo, you’re now an important figure in the eyes of the leaders. You have to continue to work hard and not slack off.
Liao Dongcheng could not help but exclaim, “It’s only been a few months since we last met, but Wu Mo has become more mature.”
“General Liao, you must be joking. It was just luck that I was chosen by those big shots. Of course, I’ll definitely work harder in the study of forging. Thank you for your concern, General.”
Wu Mo felt that he had been very calm.
It did not matter if he was an unknown graduate student when he first came to the fifth Research Department.
Wu Mo had always maintained the same mentality as the current popular figure that was favored by the major leaders.
In the current era, only by constantly learning and working hard could one live with dignity and protect one’s family.
Of course, he did not work hard just for his family, but also for his dream.
He could still vaguely remember how his predecessor had stupidly worked day and night in the single dormitory to forge a Divine weapon until he went crazy.
He also remembered the tear-jerking scene when he was sent to the village entrance by his parents and was ready to go to Shanglin City to learn forging.
