Chapter 405

Albedo sent a message on the spot, instructing all alchemists who had learned programming to report to the Internet company.

At this moment, Takumi added, "Besides programmers, we also need general staff, cooks, and other supporting roles. The goal is to fully utilize this building. Whatever we need, we will recruit for it."

"Additionally, we should recruit freelance programmers. There are quite a few talented individuals on the forums. Let's bring them in and train them."

"Abe Shao, from now on, you'll be in charge of the Liyue Internet Company."

The leadership roles were assigned:

Person in charge of Liyue Internet Company: Abe Shao

Person in charge of Liyue TV Station: Baiwen

Person in charge of the Education Department: Zhongli

Head of the Land Division: Keqing

Person in charge of the Research and Development Department of the Agency: Master Liuyun

Person in charge of the Alchemy Workshop: Albedo Head of Biopharmaceuticals: Sucrose

Everything was set.

No one had any objections to the arrangement. Abe Shao was passionate about programming, and recruitment was left in his hands. Takumi would fully support him.

After wrapping up these discussions, Takumi went to the bank to apply for several bank cards. These were handed over to Abe Shao, containing a considerable amount of mora saved by Takumi, meant to cover the company's initial expenses.

Once the company was operational, Takumi would send additional personnel to assist Abe Shao. After all, running the company alone would be overwhelming.

Shortly after, the programmers started arriving. Takumi, Abe Shao, and Albedo divided them into teams, assigning them specific roles and responsibilities. Takumi personally trained them on management processes and expectations.

Meanwhile, security personnel from Shenhe's side also began arriving. Takumi sent a message to Ningguang, requesting her to recommend a reliable manager to support Abe Shao.

Ningguang responded quickly, providing a name and assuring Takumi that the candidate would arrive soon.

Liyue had a well-established talent training system, making it easy to find competent individuals. This was one reason why Guiliyuan had attracted so many skilled people in the first place.

Not long after, the manager recommended by Ningguang arrived. Takumi took him aside to explain his role.

The manager's primary duty was handling logistical and administrative tasks, ensuring smooth operations for non-programming aspects of the company. Core technical management remained in Abe Shao's hands.

During this time, Takumi learned the manager's name—Wu He, an honest-looking man in his thirties. According to Ningguang, Wu He was reliable and diligent, though not particularly outstanding. However, he was an excellent secretary.

If he had been younger and not male, Ningguang might have made him her own secretary. Instead, this position suited him perfectly.

Takumi was pleased with the arrangement. A reliable administrative officer was exactly what he needed.

After spending some time finalizing the company setup, Takumi observed the company in full operation. Everything was running smoothly, allowing him to focus on other tasks.

The company's business plan, revenue model, and long-term development had all been outlined. Now, it was just a matter of execution.

Once certifications and approvals were completed, memberships and services would be launched.

With the company settled, Takumi returned to the General Affairs Department.

There, he found Keqing and Shenhe discussing something in his office.

Seeing Takumi enter, Keqing looked slightly surprised. "Is everything done over there?"

Takumi nodded. "Yes, it's all taken care of. How's everything going on Sucrose's end?"

He sat down and inquired about Keqing's recent work. While he had been focused on the Internet company, Keqing had been overseeing developments at the medicinal base.

Whether it was road construction or resource transportation, Keqing had personally monitored everything.

Keqing nodded. "Everything is progressing well. I was just discussing it with Shenhe. Sucrose has already cultivated the seeds and is preparing to plant them. As you suggested earlier, I've also arranged for some vegetables to be grown there."

She provided a full update on the status of the medicinal base.

Hearing this, Takumi nodded in satisfaction. "That's great. Now we just have to wait."

Then, something crossed his mind. "I wonder what's happening over at The Chasm."

Takumi thought of Klee. The little girl had been away for a while, and he hadn't heard from her recently.

Keqing shook her head. "I'm not sure. I haven't checked the situation there. If you want to know, you should ask Ningguang."

She then changed the topic. "Next, I need to return to Liyue Harbor. The old buildings there are ready for demolition, so I have to oversee the process."

As the head of the Land Division, Keqing needed to handle these matters personally.

Takumi thought for a moment before saying, "I'll go with you. I haven't been back to Liyue Harbor in a while. This is a good opportunity to check in."

Since the Rite of Parting, he hadn't returned. Now was a good time.

Keqing nodded. "Alright!"

At that moment, Shenhe spoke up. "I recently received a report. Takumi, you should review it first."

Knowing that Takumi planned to return to Liyue Harbor, Shenhe had no objections. However, there was a pressing issue that required his decision.

Takumi was puzzled. "What is it?"

Shenhe handed him a document.

Takumi took it and began reading.

His eyebrows raised. "Pirates?"

Shenhe nodded. "Yes. A fleet returning from overseas reported encountering foreign pirates in Liyue's waters."

Takumi nodded as he finished reviewing the report.

"Let the navy handle it. There's no need to escalate this to our level."

"In the future, any similar incidents should be directed to the navy immediately."

Takumi placed the document aside, issuing the directive on the spot.
