Donghai, Luoge Town

"Colonel, this is the document just sent from Colonel Li Yan of the 18th Branch!"

The office was filled with smoke and the visibility was almost reduced to less than one meter. A young sailor with a sergeant on her shoulder saluted and reported.

"Eighteen Branch, Li Yan?"

With a slight frown, Smoker took the file.

He naturally knows who Li Yan is. In terms of relationship, the other party has to call him senior brother. After all, they are both Zefa's disciples.

A few days ago, when Li Yan was transferred to the 18th branch of the East China Sea, Zefa called Smog specifically and asked him to help as much as he could without violating naval regulations.

"Um?"

After reading the document, Smoker was a little surprised.

Li Yan's document is a material application document. Since ten new sailors have been received, he needs to apply for ten sets of sailor uniforms, standard weapons and equipment, etc.

In addition, since the 18th Branch currently has no warships and is unable to perform patrol missions, it has also applied for a small warship and supporting ammunition and other supplies.

Originally, these applications were nothing. Smoker usually signed them without looking too carefully, and then submitted them directly to the headquarters.

But the problem is, that's the 18th branch...

If it weren't for Li Yan's existence and Zefa's request to sell his face, this branch would have been cancelled.

As for the top brass of the Navy, it was just a matter of selling out Zefa's face and allowing Li Yan to serve safely there and retire.

Therefore, in normal times, supplies are delivered by regular ships at most once a month, but now what the hell are there suddenly ten more sailors?

And you also need warships to carry out patrol missions?

Li Yan, who has lost all his abilities and talents, might not be able to fight a pirate with a one million bounty after he sets sail, right?

Thinking of this, Smoker didn't dare to make the decision casually.

Although these supplies are nothing to the navy, if Li Yan was killed by pirates on his voyage because of his approval of this document, how should he explain to Teacher Zefa?

After pondering for a while, Smoker picked up the phone on his desk and called Zefa directly.

Brumuru...burubrubru...

"I'm Zefa!"

"Teacher, it's me, Smoker!"

"Smog, what's the matter?"

"It's like this. I just received a material application from the 18th Donghai Branch."

"Huh? Li Yan submitted it?"

Hearing this, the face of Zefa simulated by the phone bug also changed slightly.

"Yes, this material application requires uniforms and supporting weapons and equipment for ten sailors, as well as a small warship and a standard base number of artillery shells."

"Ten sailors? Where did the sailors come from?"

Zefa frowned. He knew the location of the 18th branch in detail. There were no inhabited islands within hundreds of nautical miles around it. Even pirates were unwilling to go to that area. These ten sailors were

Where did it come from?

"Teacher, Colonel Li Yan has sent over the information of the ten people who have newly joined the navy. They are all from different islands in the East China Sea. The information is complete and detailed. There should be no problem. According to the report, the people who joined the navy today are

The ship comes there regularly and asks to join the navy!"

"Let's do this. You check based on this information to see if the origins of these ten people are innocent. If there is no problem, the equipment will be approved. As for the application for the battleship, suppress it first and wait a little longer."

After listening to Smoker's words, Zefa thought about it for a moment and then said.

It's not that Zefa doesn't trust Li Yan, but that he is afraid that some people with bad intentions will cause trouble.

Otherwise, it would be such a coincidence that as soon as Li Yan arrived, ten people went all the way to that stupid branch to sign up for the navy?

Therefore, it is necessary for Smoker to check the details of these ten people first!

"Okay, Teacher Zefa, I understand!"

After hanging up the phone, Smoker immediately handed the information documents about the ten sailors to the female sailor in front of him.

"Dasqi, send this information to the Intelligence Department and let them check it to see if these people's background is clean!"

"Yes, Colonel!"

------

A month passed quickly. At this moment, four buildings have been formed at the locations designated by Li Yan. According to foreman Ross, they can all be completed today.

In the past month, Li Yan has been practicing swordsmanship every day.

【Li Yan】

[Military rank: colonel]

[Position: Base Commander of the 18th Donghai Branch of the Navy]

[Power value: 58]

[Martial arts level: Lv.2 (41%)]

[Swordsmanship level: Lv.20 (17%)]

[Devil Fruit: None]

[Three colors of domineering: armed color Lv.0, knowledge color Lv.0, overlord color Lv.0]

[Exclusive Features: None]

[Skill: Sixth Naval Style·Shaving Lv.0 (37%)]

[Merit value: 2000]

Obviously, the training in the past month has achieved very obvious results, and he has directly transformed from knowing nothing about swordsmanship to a third-rate swordsman.

What is the concept of a third-rate swordsman? It may be much worse than the current Sauron, but it should still be possible to solve some pirates in the East China Sea with a reward of one to two million.

Looking at the results of his cultivation, Li Yan nodded with satisfaction.

However, after the level of swordsmanship reaches Lv. 20, the proficiency provided by basic training has become quite small. After a whole day, it is only about 5%.

"Colonel Li Yan, Foreman Ross said we can start receiving them!"

Just as Li Yan was cleaning up, Larnas ran over, with a hint of excitement on his face.

Speaking of which, during this month, all ten sailors, including Larnas, lived in tents.

Now that the project is over, let alone anything else, you can at least live in the navy dormitory.

"Okay, let's go there now!"

Smiling and nodding, Li Yan took Larnas towards the construction site.

Originally, the Eighteenth Branch was built only one kilometer away from the coast, but later, according to Li Yan's plan, the office building was built further inward, about 3 kilometers away from the coast.

At the same time, Li Yan did not build any buildings within one kilometer of the office building, but reserved them for future expansion.

As for the navy dormitories, training grounds and warehouses, they were all built outside this range.

When he arrived at the two-story brand new branch office building, Li Yan was also very satisfied.

Although it is still small, it is already many times stronger than the old leaky house.

"Colonel, are you satisfied?"

"Well, I am very satisfied. Luo Lan Company is indeed the largest construction company in the East China Sea!"

"No, no, no, this is mainly better because of the drawings given by the colonel. The person who can draw such drawings must be a famous designer in the world, right?"

After listening to Li Yan's praise, Ross quickly shook his head and said.

After building a house for so many years, Ross's eyes were naturally ruthless. The four drawings Li Yan gave him had never seen them before, whether in terms of architectural structure, style, or other aspects.

Many of the design concepts were far beyond his knowledge. Fortunately, the drawings were detailed enough, otherwise Ross really didn't know how to do many things.

Regarding Rose's question, Li Yan just laughed and did not answer.

Nonsense, how should I respond to the drawings given by the system?

Seeing this, Ross did not continue to ask questions.

"Colonel, according to the contract you signed with our company, there are still eleven months left. What next?"

"You can rest first and wait until the new materials and drawings are in place before starting work!"

"OK!"

In fact, Li Yan also wants to continue construction, such as prisons, military ports, canteens, etc., but now he has no drawings and no building materials!

If you want these, you must have more merit points, and the most direct way to obtain merit points is to go to sea to catch pirates.

but...

I don’t even have a warship now, how can I go to sea?
