Chapter 541 Taking Kickbacks

[You fought with Elena all night, ability value +150]

[Elena's favorability 100]

[Favorability bonus 4]

【MS Operation Technology Level A: (58744/10w)】

Looking at the rising sun slowly appearing on the simulated screen, He Kui gently loosened his grip on Elena's tight waist.

"Where are you going?"

Feeling something in her heart, the girl opened her still hazy eyes.

"Go to December City."

"I'll find a teacher for you."

Although the Kuradis couple had already agreed to let him come to teach.

But there is always a procedure to follow.

Judging from the reviews, Kuradis is also quite capable as a captain.

Although not as strong as Bugilulu, its main feature is balance, like a balanced version of the fusion of Maru and Bugilulu, it is still stronger than the average captain.

There is a chance that he can hire her as the captain of his flagship.

Although he doesn't have much chance to use the flagship now.

But maybe.

Prepare for a rainy day.

Not long after, He Kui arrived at the military academy.

Naturally, with his current identity, he easily entered the principal's office on campus.

The person opposite me was also an old acquaintance. At this time, I saw the principal again.

"Congressman He, it's a pleasure to meet you."

Although he said so, the expression on the principal's face at this moment could not be described as happy.

"Mr. Principal, what's wrong?"

For the sake of emotion and reason, He Kui still asked.

"Ugh."

The principal sighed deeply, then continued.

"The school's funding is getting less and less."

"."

What the principal said was normal. After all, the peace summit was almost here.

Military spending is definitely decreasing.

Apart from the fact that He Kui's funding was not greatly affected, the design bureau was also going to shrink.

Of course, this shrinkage is only relative.

Some of the most cutting-edge research has not had much impact.

The spear and shield must always be in your own hands.

Budget cuts for military academies are a foregone conclusion.

"The sponsorship fee from South America should have arrived by now, right?"

He Kui asked.

"That being said, our school has to support so many people."

"New students will be enrolled soon."

“Then the quality of teaching will probably decline.”

Hearing the principal's words, He Kui frowned slightly.

He knows the importance of education. In addition to providing officers to ZAFT, he also provides researchers for his research institute.

But the cut was only 15%. I'm afraid the principal is trying to enrich himself.

It is true that this behavior is normal.

Regulators are also human and can be corrupt.

He was bribed at first.

But since the principal might join his camp, he doesn't want anyone to hold him back.

If something happens to a political party, its credibility and image will be affected.

This is not a private server, no one will say that he is still indebted to Councillor He.

His imagination was too good, and precisely because it was too good, a small stain might expand like an ink stain.

You have to be careful.

"Of course, we won't let Councillor He help us for nothing."

Hearing the other party's words, He Kui nodded.

"I'll keep an eye on it for you."

"I'll take Kuradis away first."

"Of course!"

The principal spoke enthusiastically and stood up to ask the person to leave. Of course, He Kui, who came out of the principal's office, had no intention of asking.

He wanted to make money, but not this kind of money.

If he really took kickbacks, he would be criticized to death when it was exposed.

It would be better to find some weak spots and then help his own people to that position.

However, his influence is not that great, and there is currently no one qualified to serve as the principal.

Maybe I should talk to Lux about this, as she must have a lot of connections behind her.

It would also be a good opportunity to test whether Lux and the Klein faction intend to influence his camp.

Having made up his mind, He Kui also found Ed, whom he had not seen for a long time, in the office outside.

"He Kui, you're here to take people away again."

Looking at his old classmates, Ed's smile was brighter than usual.

It was obvious that he was truly happy that his children wouldn't have to be born into a world of war.

Although this peace would have only lasted for a short time without his interference.

"Yeah, just taking a teacher away."

"Will you come to my and Shihe's wedding next month?"

"Of course."

Ed hit him on the shoulder, looking at him like he was talking nonsense.

"I didn't expect you to get married now."

"I didn't expect that either."

He Kui smiled.

If it weren't for this golden finger, perhaps they would have gotten married early and lived in the staff dormitory of the Heilan Design Bureau.

Maybe he is still worried about where to go after the war.

"See you then, then."

After He Kui finished speaking, he said goodbye to Ed and went straight to find Kuradis who had just finished class.

"I'm sorry to bother Mrs. Kuladis this time."

"No way. I have more chances on your asteroid."

He Kui's company has now gradually established a foothold on the moon.

Because of the deterrence of Genesis.

The remaining Atlantic Federation base on the moon offered no resistance at all, like a puppy lying on its back with its belly exposed, pretending to be dead.

It was under this background that He Kui's company grew stronger and stronger, and it was just one step away from monopolizing the lunar mining industry.

More importantly, Gundamnium alloy can be used not only in wars but also in outer space exploration due to its excellent strength, and the demand for it will only grow in the future.

Not to mention He Kui's own political identity, so working there is indeed more promising.

The only problem was that she heard that the other party was a young woman killer.

However, seeing He Kui's clear eyes without any evil thoughts, Kuladis finally let go of his worry.

As they talked, they returned to the asteroid.

That night, after He Kui settled Kuladis, he found Lux ​​in Setona's room.

"Just like you said, there is a high possibility that the principal is not clean."

"I will contact some friends here to find some traces."

After listening to what He Kui had just said, Lux also followed suit.

I don’t know whether it is the power of the Klein faction or the power of the terminal.

But this was He Kui's purpose, so he agreed when he heard it.

"If the principal is really not clean, we may be able to replace him with one of our own if we make some arrangements in advance."

Lux looked straight at He Kui with her bright eyes and smiled.

"Do you have a choice?"

"No."

He Kui shook his head like a bachelor.

"Can Councillor He trust Lux?"

Lux looked at him seriously, as if to prove something.

"Isn't Lux already here?"

The relationship between the two is quite strange now. After all, Lux can definitely still use some of the power of the terminal.

But she settled here as his assistant. Strictly speaking, Lux is the bridge for cooperation between the two parties.

It's not wrong for him to give in to Lux on some unimportant matters, but the final say cannot be shifted to Lux, otherwise why doesn't he just join the Klein faction.

"Since He Kui believes what Lux said."

"Lux won't let you down either."

Lux's cute smile became more genuine, and then she paused, the smile gradually faded, and then she continued.

"One more thing. The location of the summit has been confirmed. It's in Alaska."
