Hearing Su Chengfeng’s sigh, Elder He also agreed with him and said: “Master, there are too many hidden dark sides in the overseas world. There are so many filth and dirt, mixed with fish and dragons!”
“Moreover, the more turbulent the place, the easier it is to nurture a powerful organization like the Wanlong Temple!”
“It’s just that I really didn’t expect that the Hallmaster of the Wanlong Palace should be so young. I really can’t think of any chance for this Wan Po Army to build a powerful Wanlong Palace in such a short period of time! Ordinary people It is impossible to do it anyway!”
Su Chengfeng couldn’t help asking: “By the way, how about the financial resources of Wanlong Palace?”
“It’s also very strong!” Elder He said earnestly: “This kind of mercenary organization has very strong profitability!”
After a pause, Elder He continued: “The revenue of Wanlongdian is estimated to be at least hundreds of billions of dollars a year.”
“What?!” Su Chengfeng asked dumbfounded: “There are hundreds of billions of dollars a year. This is a money printing machine!”
Old He explained: “Master, hundreds of billions of dollars seem to be a lot, but don’t forget that there are tens of thousands of mercenaries in the Wanlong Palace. These mercenaries are the masters of licking blood, and the average salary is very high.”
“Even the most common big-headed soldier, no one can do this kind of hard work for a year without tens of thousands of dollars;”
“If you count the high-level military officers among the mercenaries, I think the average annual salary must be at least three or four hundred thousand dollars or more;”
“For fifty thousand people, just salary, one or two tens of billions of dollars a year.”
“This is only salary costs, and does not include base costs, training costs, food costs, transportation costs and maintenance costs of weapons and equipment;
“The bigger cost is weapons and ammunition, a few dollars for a bullet, a few hundred dollars for a grenade, and thousands of dollars for an artillery shell. In a war, the money is spent faster than printed.”
“Moreover, word-of-mouth is very important for these top-ranked mercenary organizations. Once casualties occur on the battlefield, they must be held accountable to the end. If someone is injured, they must provide a full set of medical treatment; if someone sacrifices, they must pay a huge pension. ;”
Speaking of this, He Lao concluded: “I estimate that Wanlongdian’s annual net profit should be around 10 billion U.S. dollars.”
Su Chengfeng said with emotion: “Ten billion US dollars is also very powerful! They are people who have been out of the law all year round, and they don’t have to pay taxes. They make all the money.”
Elder He nodded and said, “As far as I know, they are now frantically expanding in the war-torn countries of the Third World, preparing to build bases everywhere. It is estimated that the overall investment cost is also very high, but after they have successfully established roots in all war-torn regions, their strength It must be another step up.”
Su Chengfeng frowned and blurted: “I really didn’t expect this Wan Po Army to be so capable! In a place outside the law, even the most basic personal safety is not guaranteed. He can actually build a powerful man in this place. The mercenary organization is really not simple! Compared to his simple-minded and reckless strawbag father, I don’t know how much stronger it is!”
He said in agreement: “This person is indeed not simple, and I think he is very grateful for the kindness of the eldest master to their family back then. If you can make good use of this, master, you might be able to bring us even more help! ”
Su Chengfeng nodded with excitement, and blurted out: “Yes, this is definitely a golden opportunity for my Su family!”
