Chapter 1510: 1398, 320 billion

Noticing Su Yu’s arrival, Journeyman · Gride immediately rushed to greet him.

With a flicker, one moment he was in his office, the next moment he appeared before Su Yu. It was obvious that he had also used a spell similar to the Flash Skill.

"Haha, Councilor Su Yu, welcome to the Security Department!" Journeyman · Gride laughed heartily and opened his arms to Su Yu.

"Hello, Minister." Su Yu gave him a light hug and smiled, "I am honored to join the Security Department, just call me Su Yu."

At the same time, he changed the subject: "However... since I’m here, shouldn’t you fulfill your promise and talk about that ’mysterious gift’?"

"Don’t rush, let me take you to meet your colleagues." Journeyman · Gride tugged on Su Yu’s sleeve, heading toward his own office below.

The Deputy Minister of the Security Department and other core officials were on standby in the office. These officials were either of the same rank as Su Yu or one or two levels below him.

"As for that ’mysterious gift’, it’s this..." Journeyman · Gride said while flying and opened his bracelet panel with a light swipe of his finger.

The next second, Su Yu received a notification on his bracelet: "Large transfer received, transfer account name ’Security Department Director of the Hub Journeyman · Gride’, amount received 320 billion Holy Silver Coins."

billion?!

Su Yu was shocked. How did Minister Lu Man suddenly transfer him 320 billion? Was this the ’mysterious gift’ he mentioned?

"However, this number..." Su Yu paused.

Seeing this number, he immediately thought of something.

First of all, it mustn’t be Minister Lu Man’s welcome gift; it’s impossible to receive 320 billion just for a meeting.

Could this 320 billion be...

Seeing Su Yu’s expression of surprise and delight, Journeyman · Gride had no intention of hiding it.

He stroked the tendrils on his chin and laughed, "Su Yu, this 320 billion is actually the compensation for your ’Civilization Ascension War.’ Didn’t we send you 80 billion last time? This time it’s all been received!"

"Oh! So that’s what it is." Su Yu realized.

Back in the parliamentary meeting a year and a half ago, it was decided that 400 billion would be allocated as compensation for Blue Star’s ’Civilization Ascension War.’

But this compensation came with conditions; Su Yu had to contribute enough to the Hub for the funds to be released.

In a later bounty, Su Yu achieved second place, significantly contributing to the Hub’s security. So at that time, the Hub issued him one-fifth, which was 80 billion.

This time, they issued him the remaining 320 billion all at once.

Journeyman · Gride laughed, "Because of AI Blue Whale, your contribution to the Hub has been significant. Therefore, the Core Committee decided to issue the remaining compensation in full. You’re satisfied, right?"

"Haha, I almost forgot." Su Yu scratched his head, smiling.

To be honest, he had truly forgotten about the compensation. If Journeyman hadn’t mentioned it, he might have remembered it much later.

But now, being able to receive this amount of money certainly made him very happy. This amount is tax-free and fully credited, a total of 320 billion!

Back then, he sold the corpse of the Dark Thunder Dragon Darak for less than 500 billion.

Who wouldn’t be happy to receive such a huge amount of money?

"Thanks to Minister for taking care of this for me." Su Yu cupped his hands.

"No problem, it’s what should be done." Journeyman · Gride waved his hand.

...

Speaking of which, the two had already entered the main building of the Security Department headquarters.

The main building of the Security Department was an "A"-shaped structure, towering more than 3,000 meters with its top reaching into the clouds.

Upon entering the main building, Su Yu immediately saw faces full of astonishment; these faces belonged to the members of the Security Department.

By now, almost everyone at the Hub was familiar with his face.

The members of the Security Department were not aware of Su Yu’s arrival, so upon seeing him, they immediately displayed expressions of either surprise or delight, with a hint of resentment in their bewilderment and delight.

Journeyman · Gride laughed, "Haha, Su Yu, although the spread of AI Blue Whale has made everyone elated, there’s one place that might not be so pleased."

As he said this, he patted Su Yu’s shoulder, saying meaningfully, "Can you guess where this place is?"

"Uh... do I even need to guess? It must be here." Su Yu wiped the sweat off his forehead, wondering if Journeyman · Gride’s invitation was a Hongmen Banquet.

"Indeed, it is here." Lu Man nodded, "Almost every resident of the Hub is eagerly watching for AI Blue Whale’s full deployment. But for our Security Department, who knows how many will lose their jobs or transfer positions. Let’s put it this way, in the end, the number left might not exceed one-tenth..."

Meanwhile, the surrounding members’ eyes grew even more resentful.

"So, are you suggesting that I am responsible for this?" Su Yu interrupted with a half-smile.

"Ah... of course not!" Journeyman · Gride patted Su Yu’s shoulder again and laughed, "It’s not your fault, rather, it’s the drastic change that’s overwhelming everyone."

"So what do you mean?" Su Yu was a bit confused.

Why was Journeyman · Gride showing him all this when he couldn’t solve it?

Journeyman · Gride led him to his conference room while replying, "What the department is currently undergoing is transformation.

Our department currently employs about 200 million people, with more than ninety percent being police staff.

The future Security Department will surely revolve around AI Blue Whale, initially reducing staff numbers to below 20 million, and then making further adjustments based on specific needs."

He glanced at Su Yu, saying with deep meaning, "Councilor Su Yu, as the former owner of AI Blue Whale, we really hope you will help us through this difficult transformation period."
