People in the industry know the industry best.

Although Pei Wen keeps a low profile and is unknown outside the industry, he is a rising star in the circle in just a few years. Most of the bosses in the same industry are more or less familiar with this name.

Wang Hongsheng hadn't expected to meet someone like him in a place like this. Seeing the confirmation on Pei Wen's face, he quickly extended his hand again. "I've heard so much about you, Mr. Pei. I never thought I'd run into you in a place like this!"

Pei Wen glanced at his hand, hesitated slightly, but still shook it back and then quickly pulled away.

Wang Hongsheng smiled and said, "Let me introduce myself again. I'm Wang Hongsheng, the CEO of Peak Group. It's a shame there's no business card in the game, otherwise I would definitely add Mr. Pei as my friend today."

Pei Wen felt a headache: I have introduced myself several times.

Trying to remain calm, he said, "There will be opportunities in the future."

As soon as Wang Hongsheng knew his identity, he immediately started socializing, talking to him about the current situation of his company and the industry, and indirectly trying to find out about Pei Wen's operating methods and techniques, etc.

Pei Wen's scalp suddenly went numb.

I should have known not to help Si Lan block this attack.

No matter how keen you are on workplace socializing, you can't just start chatting as soon as you meet.

Too forceful, I can't bear it.

He listened to Wang Hongsheng's chatter for a while, and then began to look at Si Lan for help.

Si Lan was enjoying the show, so she stood by with her arms folded, watching without any intention of intervening.

Fang Xun asked her curiously, "So Professor Pei is also so famous in another industry?"

Si Lan: "It's not bad. Ascending from zero foundation is quite eye-catching."

Fang Xun: "That's impressive! You can thrive even in a different industry. Is this the world of you smart people?"

Si Lan smiled and said calmly, "The resources we control are different, so there's really no comparison."

Fang Xun didn't know whether the "resources" she was talking about were the resources provided by the country to help him, or the resources he already had.

However, even if there are resources, it depends on whether the people who use the resources have the ability to accurately grasp and reasonably allocate them.

Therefore, he never believed the nonsense that "the upper class has good resources, so development will also be good." People who can really make the most of resources must have good abilities themselves.

He saw that Pei Wen's face was not very good, and considering his usual temperament, he probably didn't like to deal with this kind of situation.

Then he lowered his voice and asked Si Lan: "Aren't you going to rescue him?"

Si Lan: "Why do you want to rescue her?"

"The professor looks a little embarrassed."

"Yeah?"

But Si Lan didn't want to talk to someone like Wang Hongsheng. Just then, someone called her from behind. She patted Fang Xun's shoulder and turned away: "Go ahead, Officer Fang."

When Pei Wen saw Si Lan was about to leave, he was furious and shouted, "Lan Lan???"

When Wang Hongsheng heard this address and looked at Si Lan walking away, he was surprised again: "Huh? Are President Pei and Miss Si Lan familiar with each other?"

Pei Wen felt like he had lost both his wife and his army, and didn't want to stay here and talk nonsense anymore. He said, "I have something to do first," and left in a hurry.

Only Fang Xun and Wang Hongsheng were left at the scene, and both felt embarrassed to varying degrees.

They looked at each other in confusion, and finally Fang Xun spoke first: "Those two are the leaders of our camp. They are indeed very busy. Please forgive me for not being able to greet them well."

"Would you please come and see our house first? Put your luggage there. I see the two brothers over there are a little tired."

Wang Hongsheng looked at Pei Wen twice again, feeling a little unwilling.

Then he saw Pei Wen went to find Si Lan as soon as he left, and it seemed that the two had a good relationship. He reflected on his behavior just now and made sure that he had not offended Si Lan, so he felt a little relieved.

Afterwards, he found a new house and moved in. When he saw the slightly shabby house, he couldn't help but feel a little disgusted.

However, if there was someone like Pei Wen here, in order to gain new resources after leaving the game, he tried hard to control his emotions and chatted with Fang Xun for a while.

At dinner time at night, everyone in the camp cooks and eats together.

Wang Hongsheng also didn't understand this model: "We all have resources, so why should we eat from the same pot? Wouldn't it be better for everyone to eat their own food?"

When he tasted the food and found it actually had flavor, he was a little shocked and picked up a small piece of melon and asked, "Do you have any seasoning?"

Fang Xun laughed and said, "Yes. We have salt here, and with the spices we have collected, the food we make has flavor. How is it? Doesn't it taste good?"

Wang Hongsheng thought that even in his land of rich resources, he couldn't find salt. How did this group of people find it?

He asked truthfully.

While digging into the mashed potatoes from the newly harvested potatoes in the field, Fan Wenqing replied, "We have a salt field! It's all from the hard work of everyone drying it!"

Wang Hongsheng: "Salt field???"

I looked around for a long time, still confused: "Where did the salt fields come from? Doesn't that have to be near the sea?"

Fang Xun immediately explained: "It's the salt field by the sea."

"We discovered a sea a while ago, so we took a team to the seashore to dig a salt field and dry the salt. Now we have a team of people camped there to guard the field, and send people to transport a batch back as soon as it is dried."

The people Wang Hongsheng brought were shocked: "You can do this? You can also dry sea salt?"

Wang Hongsheng immediately said, "Oh, it's just drying salt. Isn't it enough to have sunshine? It's not that difficult."

Fang Xun nodded and then shook his head: "That's not entirely true. Sun drying is indeed not difficult, but salt field design and so on, I followed everyone to do it, and I found it is still very complicated. It is also difficult to determine the concentration of brine."

"If it weren't for the guidance and planning of the professor and Si Lan, we wouldn't have been able to build that place successfully, so we are really grateful to you two."

Wang Hongsheng immediately looked at Pei Wen: "Boss Pei is amazing!"

Pei Wen was currently asking Si Lan to pick out fish bones for him, to make up for the resentment he felt for being ignored by her in the afternoon.

Hearing this, he didn't even raise his head: "I just said a few words casually, it's still me, Lanlan, who does the hard work."

Si Lan: "What do you mean, Lan Lan???"

Pei Wen: "You're actively refuting at a time like this? You're as dumb as a log when watching a play."

"If you stop talking, you're just watching a show? How can you still call it watching a show if you interrupt?"

"You dare to confront me? I pick out the bones for you when you eat fish. Is this how you repay your old mother? Pick them out yourself. I won't serve you anymore."

Pei Wen immediately moved the bowl away, refusing her to throw the unselected fish into his bowl.

"This is the ticket price you pay for the show. Besides, you already call me Jiaojiao, so how can I live up to the name if I don't act a little more coquettish?"

Si Lan was so angry that she almost pinched his face.

He casually pulled out the large bone in the middle of the sea fish and threw the boneless fish meat over: "Take it and go."

Everyone is used to seeing the two of them bickering with each other every day. When they see them arguing, everyone just watches happily without interrupting.

Wang Hongsheng felt a little unhappy. He frowned and looked at Si Lan: "Miss, what is your relationship with Mr. Pei? Mr. Pei is the CEO of the company after all. It doesn't seem right to ask him to leave in public. Men all want to save face."

Si Lan's expression changed immediately. She had sensed his inexplicable sense of superiority since they first met, and now he dared to bump into her. She was no longer polite: "What's your relationship with Mr. Pei? You're protecting him like this on the first day you met?"

"Did you really let him go so you couldn't tell? Or are you men so proud of your reputation that you'd get upset over a joke?"

Pei Wen immediately said, "I didn't. Don't represent me casually."

Everyone sensed the change in the atmosphere between the two sides and quickly spoke up to smooth things over: "Hey, Professor and Sister Lan are very familiar with each other. They often argue with each other. It's okay."

Wang Hongsheng was embarrassed to be refuted in public, and insisted: "This is not a relationship of acquaintance."

"Men and women are fundamentally different. Just like women love bags and men love face, this rule, which has been passed down through time, has its own reasons and should not be violated casually."

His words completely froze the entire audience.

Not to mention the adults who had never considered gender differences, even children like Tao Zhenzhen frowned when they heard this.

Fan Wenqing couldn't help herself and sneered, "What era is it in? Are there still people who hold such outdated ideas?"

"Hey, I'm not trying to flatter Sister Lan, but do you know who she is? Do you know her background? Do you know how powerful she is and how much she contributes to our camp? Do you know what her relationship is with the professor?"

"Although the professor is very capable and good, our sister Lan can get along so well with him, be his childhood sweetheart, and be spoiled by the professor. How can she be an ordinary person?"

"Let's not even talk about you. Our Sister Lan is definitely more noble than any of us. When it comes to giving face, neither of them can be left out. If you insist on saying that... be careful, Sister Lan will kill you when she gets out!"

Fang Xun immediately warned: "Hey, hey, hey, calm down. Don't make Si Lan hate you, okay?"

Fan Wenqing immediately stuck out her tongue to admit her mistake, but Si Lan, after hearing this, singled out this sentence from among the thousands of messages: "What do you mean by spoiling and pampering?"

Fan Wenqing's neck shrank, and she thought to herself, why are you trying to pick the key points like this?

To avoid upsetting the professor, she quickly put on a smile and said, "Oh, no... I was just a little excited and exaggerated. It was just nonsense. Don't take it to heart, Sister Lan!"

After saying this, she glanced at Pei Wen secretly, fearing that he would blame her.

Pei Wen's attention wasn't on Fan Wenqing, he was only staring at Si Lan: "Then I do spoil you."

Then he gave her half of the fish meat: "See, are you spoiled? I'm giving you the meat, don't be angry."

Si Lan was speechless: After picking for so long, half of it fell back into her bowl?

Then if I’m not full later, won’t I have to pick for him???

She was about to return it, but Pei Wen held her hand down solemnly: "I'll do it myself later, so you don't have to get tired. If you don't have enough to eat, I can pick more for you."

After saying that, he finally looked up and looked at Wang Hongsheng coldly: "At least in our camp, everyone has the same status and there is no distinction between them."

"Everyone starts from the same point here, and real-life identities don't apply here. We'll just divide up the day-to-day responsibilities based on ability. For the rest, please treat us the same as ordinary people. No special treatment is needed."

Wang Hongsheng choked. He never expected that he would be retorted by him just because he was speaking for him.

Fang Xun was used to seeing all kinds of people, and he knew that no matter how united and harmonious the game was, there would inevitably be people with bad personalities.

This is the disparity in the world. Their camp is extremely lucky to be able to meet very friendly players.

He had met Wu Peng, who was a troublemaker, before, so he was not surprised to see Wang Hongsheng coming.

Seeing that the atmosphere was awkward, he came out again to smooth things over. With just a few words, he motivated other residents to help ease the current atmosphere.

Wang Hongsheng saw that everyone was giving him a way out, and Pei Wen was someone he wanted to get to know in the future.

He stepped down, responded a few words, and gradually put the matter behind him.

After dinner, the children took on the task of washing the dishes while the adults returned to their jobs.

Seeing that Wang Hongsheng was unable to fit in due to the conflict during the meal, Fang Xun took the initiative to walk over and asked knowingly, "What experience did you say you wanted to share with us?"

Wang Hongsheng: "Oh, a power generation device. How about it? When can we see it?"

Fang Xun smiled and said, "Then I can do it later."

"It's night time now, and communication between the camp and the infrastructure group is inconvenient. We'll move the newly made battery pack to the communication station and connect it to the communication light. Come and take a look."

Wang Hongsheng heard this and said: There is still a light???

Is it really that advanced???

With an extremely skeptical attitude, he called the group of people he brought with him and came early to the renovated super-large communication tower to wait.

Current communications mainly revolve around computers. Occasionally, if there is progress in the medical anatomy of the Infrastructure Group, the relevant findings will be reported to Pei Wen, and then they will explore together.

Si Lan has thoroughly mastered the new communication language. Her family background, her ancestors' contributions to the country, and her performance throughout the process have given the Infrastructure Team absolute confidence and trust in her.

Today, Si Lan will hand over the draft of the CPU circuit design newly researched by the team to the infrastructure team for approval and correction. No one has done this themselves, and they must communicate and research and polish it repeatedly with real-world experts so that they can quickly get started when conditions are sufficient in the future.

As soon as night fell on the camp, the residents who had nothing to do came out and gathered in front of the communication station, watching them "light up" with the infrastructure team and "stealing" their various theoretical techniques.

Pei Wen moved a large battery pack from the warehouse, connected it to the communication station, and then waited for Si Lan and others to make preparations.

Si Lan's team moved the power-on model, which was enlarged according to the circuit design diagram, onto the communication station. After the power was turned on, a speaker pointed to various parts and explained the ideas. Si Lan then conveyed his words to the infrastructure team through a large amount of complex encrypted language.

So, Wang Hongsheng and others watched Si Lan sit down at the communication station. After a large light representing the start of communication came on, the infrastructure team that had been waiting there for a long time responded in the conventional way of hail triggering an electrified metal plate.

After that, the two sides began to communicate with each other in a fast manner that Wang Hongsheng could not understand.

At the fastest moment, Wang Hongsheng could still sense from the words of the infrastructure team conveyed by Si Lan and the response of the speaker next to him that they were arguing because of their different opinions!

But quarrels could not stop them from exploring.

This group of people seemed to have experienced countless academic disputes before. Even the residents of the camp who were watching were not panicked at all and listened to them quarreling quietly.

As the night wore on, the group unexpectedly reached a consensus. The speaker took out a simple brush, heavily marked the messed-up design with a single tick, and then happily announced, "Alright, it's done!"

"The design conflict we discussed earlier has been perfectly resolved! We'll discuss the next issue tomorrow!"

The residents immediately applauded and congratulated him, while also asking about many theories that they had not understood.

The lecturer and the professional team behind the lecture, including Si Lan and Pei Wen, actually answered them seriously. As a result, not only the residents who regularly attended the lecture, but even newcomers like Wang Hongsheng gained professional knowledge they had never dreamed of.

This completely dumbfounded Wang Hongsheng and others who usually spent their time doing construction or killing time out of boredom.

Just that one night, they seemed to understand why the camp had grown so fast, the atmosphere was so good, and the people were so united.

He also realized that his camp was not developing very fast and had weak cohesion. These people who thought they were at the forefront were just little fools who had not opened their eyes to the world!
