Ever since the Solar System Campaign broke out, Nie Yun had fought and devoured his way forward, amassing copied advanced technologies like a nouveau riche amassing wealth.
Not only did this leave Nie Yun feeling overstuffed and struggling to digest it all, but Elder Yu and the others were also stunned by the enormous windfall that had landed in their laps.
Along with those pleasant surprises, however, came a torrential downpour of research assignments.
Elder Yu and the others currently had more research projects on their hands than they could count. Even if each of them could do the work of dozens or even hundreds of people, they still could not cover every last item in Nie Yun's vast technological library. In the end, they could only focus on the major projects and let the minor ones go.
With Nie Yun's approval, they selected some of the world's more advanced research teams, broke up less important and less technically demanding projects, and outsourced them.
Although Elder Yu and the others considered these outsourced projects mere "scraps" beneath their notice, they were absolutely cutting-edge technology to Earth's still quite "backward" nations.
Of course, there was another reason everyone scrambled for them... the outsourcing fees they offered were enough to make anyone green with envy...
"Lao Yu, Little Zhao contacted me a couple of days ago, asking us to save a few more assignments for them..." Liang Guang said with a smile.
The Little Zhao he referred to was Director Zhao of the Southeast Military Region's research institute.
With Nie Yun tacitly turning a blind eye, Elder Yu and the others had been giving Director Zhao's team quite a few special favors lately.
To motivate the scientists while also making effective use of resources, Nie Yun had placed restrictions on many high-end
