"Any questions?"
Mammon gave Guzma a strange look.
"I have no experience in being a boss."
Guzma spoke in distress, he was just a bad guy, when had he ever done anything serious?
Not to mention the owner of an entertainment city.
"And Master, aren't we a dark organization?"
"Who told you that the Dark Organization doesn't need to do business anymore?"
Mammon frowned slightly, but then sighed. That's right, the quality of the Team Skull is obvious.
"Guzma, it costs money to run an organization, although money can't do everything in this world."
"But if you want to get things done, you need money. Do you understand what I mean?"
Mammon explained earnestly to Guzma.
Guzma's confused expression made it clear to Mammon that he didn't understand.
"Forget it, let's put it simply. Our Rockets organization has so many subordinates. Should we pay them salaries?"
"Forehead..."
"Um, what? You never pay your little brothers who follow you, do you?"
"…"
Guzma and Plumeria looked at each other and remained silent in awkward silence.
"Also, organizing uniforms, building bases, managing people, gathering intelligence, collective action, etc., all require money."
"Especially the interpersonal management aspect. This is unavoidable no matter what. The Elf Alliance is powerful. If we don't spend money to buy off some people within the alliance, how can the organization develop better?"
Mammon introduced them one by one.
But there is no need to take care of Alola now. After all, there is not even an alliance here. Just pay attention to the kings of each island.
Guzma's eyes started to roll around, but Plumeria was listening very carefully.
"We are just starting out in the Alola region, so we need to invest a lot of money. However, we don't have to worry about the initial investment funds, as they will be provided by the Kanto headquarters."
"But it would be best to be self-sufficient as soon as possible, so the entertainment city project must open as soon as possible. The entertainment city can Plumeriag us a lot of revenue."
Cross added.
"And Mr. Guzma, you are quite famous in the Alola region. The news of your opening of an entertainment city will Plumeriag enough attention, and our entertainment city will be known to people more quickly."
Catlin also spoke with a smile.
"But boss... Brother Guzma's reputation is not positive..." Plumeria was a little worried.
Guzma is indeed famous in the Alola region, but his reputation as a bully is not a positive one.
"It doesn't matter. We can ask the newspaper to release an announcement with the content of 'Guzma's change of heart' or 'Guzma's past', and write two sensational short essays." Mammon said casually.
"What we want is traffic and attention. The negative comments from a few black Guzma in the early stage are not important."
Mammon is very confident in his entertainment city, and the most important project in the entertainment city is the game hall!
Mammon believes that the rewards of the arcade are attractive enough! The popular Rainbow Arcade in Rainbow City, Kanto, was opened by their Team Rocket, and the annual income is very considerable.
"Guzma, you don't need to do anything. You just need to stand on the stage when the casino opens. You can leave the daily management to your assistants. They are all professionals."
"Ohhh, no problem then!"
Guzma nodded, and he felt relieved. Managing a company was really not his expertise.
He still prefers to just hit people directly.
"Also, Plumeria, after the matter at the garment factory is settled, you can take people to recruit more men. We need enough manpower."
"Yes."
"Okay, go and inform your subordinates first."
After a few brief words, Mammon signaled the two of them to go and deal with the matters outside first.
Guzma and Plumeria beautifully walked out.
"This way we can deal with the Team Skull. It's not too troublesome." Mammon stretched, feeling relatively relaxed.
"This way, there won't be any dark forces in the Alola region that can hinder us."
"Well, let's start cleaning up the Hunter Organization in the next few days. I don't want to hear this garbage in the Alola region."
Mammon said calmly that the so-called Pokémon hunter is a "profession" that accepts commissions from employers and then completes tasks to get paid.
For example, Hunter J in the anime is a member of the Hunter organization.
Mammon has no good feelings towards the Hunter Organization, which is an organization that has taken a piece of the pie from the Dark Organization's many businesses.
What the Hunter Organization can do, the Dark Organization can also do, and the Dark Organization will also accept some commissions, after all, who doesn't love a big money sponsor?
But Mammon hates the Hunter Organization because the Hunter Organization only cares about the reward. As long as the reward is in place, they will accept any task.
Mammon, who has traveled through time and space and been reborn, has feelings for Pokémon. He does not like people who treat Pokémon purely as tools and bargaining chips.
It is precisely for this reason that, under the influence of Mammon and Giovanni's assumptions, Team Rocket now basically stops conducting genetic experiments and rarely snatches Pokémon from strangers.
Mammon doesn't think he is a good person, but he has his own bottom line.
You can be bad and evil, but at least you have to be an evil person, not a pure beast.
However, the hunter organization cannot be eradicated. Where there is demand, there is a market. This is the world.
Even the Elf Alliance, the world's overlord, cannot eradicate the Dark Organization and the Hunter Organization. This is why.
The reason why we are human is that we are full of desires.
This is true even in this Pokémon world, which is mostly filled with truth, goodness and beauty.
"Catlin, how about I leave this job to you?"
Mammon looked at Catlin and smiled at her.
His attitude towards Catlin is quite special because in his opinion Catlin has this potential.
Team Rocket currently only has two champions, Giovanni and him, but Catlin has a chance to become the third! "Of course, I'd be happy to." Catlin nodded with a faint, elegant smile.
Dealing with those notorious hunter organizations was not a burden at all for Catlin.
"Well, Catlin, you can also design a uniform of your own. If you go to those darker places, your beautiful dress will probably get dirty."
Mammon looked at the gorgeous noble lady and teased her.
"Master is right. Miss Catlin should prepare some uniforms for the mission."
Cross agreed with a smile.
"Okay, I'll go back and think about it." Catlin nodded with a faint smile. Her own Team Rocket uniform?
Catlin fell into deep thought. This was her work uniform for Team Rocket, so she had to design it carefully.
"By the way, when you are not busy, Catlin, you can also find Cross or Guzma to practice with you." Mammon suggested to Catlin again.
He always believed that combat was the best special training.
"?"
As soon as Cross looked over, Catlin's expectant look made his scalp tingle.
It's not that he doesn't want to, it's mainly because Catlin has time and he doesn't!
No, Master, I've been so busy lately, how can I have the time to practice with Catlin? ?
Besides, aren't you the one with the most free time? You can practice with Catlin.
You can't just use me as a cow and a horse, right?
If you do this, I will go back to Kanto, damn it!
Well, Cross missed the leisurely time in Kanto. At that time, he could even go shopping and buy small cakes every day.
