Chapter 235 Dedicated to Public Service: Fang Xiaoping
"Yes, Magic Martial Arts Academy is facing a huge resource shortage right now."
The Magic Martial Arts Academy currently has a total of 6580 students, of whom nearly 2000 are non-martial artists and almost 4000 are first-rank martial artists.
There are more than 500 second-grade warriors.
Based on the minimum consumption of Qi and Blood Pills, Magic Martial Arts School needs to produce more than 2000 ordinary Qi and Blood Pills, 4000 first-grade pills, and more than 500 second-grade pills per month to meet the school's needs.
And this is just the minimum standard. In reality, it's much more than that. Students at Magic Martial Arts University progress quickly. For those in the lower three ranks to progress quickly, they need a lot of pills. To ensure rapid progress for students in the lower three ranks at Magic Martial Arts University, the amount of pills mentioned earlier needs to be increased at least three times. There are also other miscellaneous pills, such as those for breaking through, like pills for protecting the internal organs, pills for tempering bones, pills for healing injuries, pills for restoring life, etc. The minimum amount of pills needed per month is over 8 billion, and the amount needed per year is over 100 billion. Fang Ping calmly stated this terrifyingly huge number.
Wu Kuishan and Huang Jing, who were standing nearby, were extremely confused. They were both grandmasters with powerful mental strength, and they quickly calculated the result, which was indeed similar to what Fang Ping had said.
The Magic Martial Arts Academy needs too much and receives too little; no wonder Fang Ping wants to build his own production lines for pills and weapons on campus.
Wu Kuishan shook his head and said, "According to your idea, the gap is too big. The government allocates as much as 3000 billion yuan to Wuhan University every year. Because of the large number of students, strong strength, and large expenses, the annual income of Wuhan University is second only to Beijing University, which is about 250 billion to 280 billion yuan every year."
As for the shares in Magic Martial Arts' pills and weapons that you mentioned, the dividends from those investments are all used to exchange for pills and weapons.
Most of them are obtained through exchange now.
Magic Martial Arts' own pill production and weapon manufacturing are extremely weak, and cannot support the supply of other industries at all. They are just a drop in the bucket. In a year, Magic Martial Arts' revenue is about 300 billion.
In the past, the expenses were roughly the same, which was enough to barely keep Magic Martial Arts Academy running. But according to your current calculation, you need hundreds of billions of resources, which is a huge shortfall.”
"That's right. According to you, Magic Martial Arts Academy simply can't supply that many martial artists right now. There's a shortfall of nearly 700 billion. Where will that come from? There's nowhere to fill it."
Huang Jing also spoke from the side.
Fang Ping frowned upon hearing their conversation. He had anticipated a gap, but hadn't expected it to be this large.
No wonder resources are so scarce in Magic Martial Arts.
"If we were to build a production line worth around 100 billion yuan on campus, how much raw material would we need?" Fang Ping asked.
"More than 200 billion in raw materials. Magic Martial Arts University's annual income, including the income of its mentors, is supplied to Magic Martial Arts University. It can reach about 200 billion a year. But if you do this, the pill company will no longer give us shares or other support. Magic Martial Arts University will have to make up for it entirely on its own. If it can't reach that level in the future, Magic Martial Arts University will be in big trouble," Wu Kuishan said.
"Headmaster, that's not how you calculate it. The more pills the students use, the stronger they become. Ultimately, the gains from going down into the underground dungeons will be even greater. Moreover, the situation is dire; the Second Rank cultivator will soon be informing us about the underground dungeons. With more people going down and their strength increasing..."
"The harvest is enough. If we have more harvest later, it won't conflict to give a share to the pill company," Fang Ping said calmly.
Wu Kuishan was silent for a moment before saying, "Are you absolutely determined to expand the on-campus production line?"
"Me? No, it's the Magic and Martial Arts Academy that insists on this."
Fang Ping said calmly.
"Who am I doing all this for? Can't you two see that I'm doing it for Magic Martial Arts? I don't lack pills or money. To put it bluntly, even if I left Magic Martial Arts now, I would still progress quickly and live a comfortable life. But now that I've taken the position of president of the Magic Martial Arts Club and seen so many things, I feel that I have to do something for Magic Martial Arts. What I'm doing now is entirely for Magic Martial Arts, for all the teachers and students. The old principal has just left, the situation in the Magic City Underground Cave has intensified, and you two have just taken office. If we don't fight for reform now, when will we fight for reform?"
Do we really have to wait until all the magic and martial arts schools are wiped out before we start reforming? If that happens, reform will truly be a joke.
"I, Fang Ping, don't want to see my classmates and friends fall in the underground because of insufficient resources and lack of strength."
Fang Ping's words were firm and resolute; this was indeed his own idea, otherwise he wouldn't have done something as thankless as fundraising.
He could also learn from Zhang Yu and manage the martial arts club in a relaxed manner, wouldn't it be better if everyone just went along with it?
He couldn't bear to see those students sacrifice themselves in vain. Before, he was just a student, and it was understandable that he only thought about his own interests. But now that he has taken this position, he must bear the responsibilities of this position.
Wu Kuishan listened to Fang Ping's words but did not speak. He tapped the table lightly, seemingly deep in thought.
"The government might not approve it—and the major companies might cause trouble. Cause trouble? Let them fight the underground world themselves. They can sit back and do whatever they want with a wave of their hand. They've probably forgotten the cruelty of the front lines. We used our blood and lives, and in the end, we couldn't even repay them with our own cultivation resources. What are we? What do they take us for? Are we the kind of people we're protecting?"
Warriors must fight for this, but where has the fight gone? We've paid with our lives, and this is the result we've received?
We don't have many demands; we just want to produce our own goods on campus and be self-sufficient. This gives us a bottom line to fight for.
Are they even going to take this away from us? With a formidable enemy at hand, what's the point of our fight if they do this?
If we don't reform today, don't blame us for not fighting for humanity tomorrow.
Upon hearing this, both grandmasters shouted, "Nonsense!"
"Hmph, I think my student is right. Just like he said, who would still be willing to fight for humanity? We're fighting now to protect our families and for the future, but in the end, we're protecting a bunch of vampires. What's the point of protecting then?"
The principal's office door opened, and Lü Fengrou walked in and said that she had just overheard what was happening outside. She was pleased that Fang Ping had grown up and was able to think about the Magic Martial Arts Academy, but she was also angry about what Fang Ping said.
"How did you get in? Have you come out of seclusion?"
Huang Jing looked at Lü Fengrou and said with a headache, "This crazy woman's involvement makes things even more complicated."
"Hmph, I just came out of seclusion and heard about your affair, so I came to listen."
I think Fang Ping is right. It's time to change things. Otherwise, we'll just be shedding blood and sacrificing ourselves without gaining anything. If we keep fighting like this, we'll all die."
Lu Fengrou said angrily.
"Don't rush things. We need to think this through carefully. Any major changes will significantly impact the entire situation," Huang Jing said from the side.
"Hmph, not in a hurry? Just like Fang Ping said, if we don't act now, are we going to wait until all of us grandmasters are dead before we get anxious? Fang Ping, continue. With me backing you up, you don't need to humiliate yourself."
Lu Fengrou said in a low voice.
She had paid attention to the situation before, but she lacked the ability and knowledge to do so, so she didn't pay much attention. It was only after Fang Ping pointed it out that she realized how many problems there were.
