When Xiong Lan returned to the hall, Xiong Lang and the others were still discussing the two suggestions put forward by Sun Guangjun. No one had a definite idea about which way to proceed.
Looking at this chaotic scene, Xiong Lan felt exhausted.
My eldest brother has never been such a fussy person, whether he was practicing martial arts or doing business. Why is it that he performs so poorly at this critical moment of life and death?
As long as he is so indecisive, it is simply a pipe dream for him to want to unify everyone's opinions.
You know, the more critical the moment, the more the core figure of a team needs to play a stabilizing role.
Haven’t you seen that on the basketball court, at the final decisive moment, the ball is always handed to the most important person in the team?
Xiong Lang now hated that in her elder brother's eyes, she was still the same willful and capricious little girl and he would never take her words seriously, especially in such a public situation.
It seems that I need to find an opportunity to have a good talk with my brother as soon as possible.
Having made up his mind secretly, Xiong Lan was in no mood to join the argumentative meeting of Xiong Lang and the others. He turned, went up the stairs and returned to his room on the second floor.
Xiong Lan stayed in the room for three or four hours. It was almost time for dinner when she heard the sound of her eldest brother's door opening next door and his heavy footsteps.
With a sigh, Xiong Lan got up and went out. When he came to Xiong Lang's door, he pushed it open without even knocking.
When the door opened, Xiong Lan saw that Xiong Lang was standing at the window with his back to the door, his hands behind his back, looking at the dark night outside, wondering what he was thinking.
"elder brother."
After closing the door, Xiong Lan came behind Xiong Lang and said seriously, "I think I should have a good talk with you."
"oh?"
Xiong Lang turned around and looked at the serious-looking girl. It seemed that he realized for the first time that the little girl who needed his protection in his previous impression had grown into a big girl. After a long while, he asked in a hoarse voice, "What are you talking about?"
Xiong Lan hesitated for a moment, but finally said, "Let's talk about our future and your leadership of the team."
"Then I'll listen carefully."
Xiong Lang raised his eyebrows and said, "I want to see what kind of opinions and suggestions my sister can give me, and whether they can make her stupid brother feel enlightened."
"Brother, don't be so pessimistic."
Xiong Lan comforted Xiong Lang and continued, "To some extent, your previous establishment and management of our team, although not outstanding, was also quite satisfactory.
But I feel like you haven’t adapted enough to the end of the world.
When it comes to your management of the team, you appear timid, fussy, and even confusing.”
"Yeah?"
Faced with Xiong Lan's blunt words, Xiong Lang was not displeased at all. Instead, he smiled and said, "Xiao Lan, apart from anything else, just from what you said just now, I have to admit that you have indeed grown up.
It seems that I have ignored you before, or rather, underestimated your abilities.
Don't worry, I'm not the kind of brother who is so narrow-minded that I can't even listen to some unpleasant but honest advice from my own sister.
Although the adjectives you used just now were quite harsh and slapped your brother in the face, I still understand your intention.
Come on, today we two brothers and sisters should open our hearts and have a good talk. "
"Brother, do you really think so?"
Xiong Lan looked up with surprise, stared at Xiong Lang's rough face, and whispered, "I thought that after saying that to you just now, I would have to quarrel with you in the end."
"Naughty!"
Xiong Lang slapped Xiong Lan on the forehead, looking fierce but actually very gentle, and cursed with a smile: "In your eyes, is your brother the kind of person who can't tell right from wrong and can't stand others saying a few bad words?
You are too small, Xiaolan. You are too small-minded and you underestimate your brother."
"Brother~~~"
Xiong Lan punched Xiong Lang several times in dissatisfaction and said, "It doesn't matter if he is small. Anyway, no matter what, I have my brother in front to protect me from the wind and rain.
As the old saying goes, if the sky falls, there will be tall people to hold it up.
In my heart, my brother is the tall one and he will always be."
The brother and sister laughed and joked for a while, and Xiong Lang gently stroked Xiong Lan's hair, sighed and said: "Xiao Lan, you think too highly of your brother.
Yes, I can still protect you from the wind and rain for now, but I can’t do it forever.
Apart from anything else, I have been feeling increasingly overwhelmed recently.
Logically speaking, we have no shortage of supplies, and we have more and more manpower. There is no shortage of good people among the new people who have joined. Everything is developing in a good direction, and we should not have anything to worry about.
But through today's incident, it is not difficult to see that our so-called team has only maintained superficial prosperity in the past. When something really happens, all kinds of problems will be exposed.
On the one hand, I was not mentally prepared for this, and on the other hand, I didn’t know how to deal with it.
If we continue like this, even without Minghua International attacking us, our people will scatter like birds and beasts and become a pile of loose sand.
Even if we follow the two paths that Brother Sun mentioned, we won't be able to satisfy everyone.
Oh, what a headache! "
Seeing Xiong Lang's worried look, Xiong Lan rubbed his brow distressedly, and then pulled him to sit on the sofa, and then said: "Brother, I think you have entered a misunderstanding.
No matter what you do, it is not easy to satisfy everyone.
Not to mention now, even before the end of the world, when there is nothing lacking, can you satisfy everyone's demands?
The answer is no!
So I just said, brother, you are not yet adapted enough to the end of the world.
This is also the most fundamental reason why you cannot make the right decision.
Brother, over the past month, perhaps because you had enough supplies and your men were able to fill their stomachs, you ultimately failed to see the existence of the crisis.
Now, once faced with a real life and death situation, the true nature of those people will be exposed, and these diverse opinions will inevitably become your troubles.
In fact, brother, you have overlooked a basic fact.
That is, in the end times, everything is decided by fists.
Yes, that’s right, it’s power.
I am not saying that materials are not important, on the contrary, materials are the foundation.
Only by building a strong foundation and ensuring that there is only one voice in the team can we go on for a long time.
Otherwise, if it is like now, with multiple policies and everyone trying to make their own decisions, such a team is doomed to be a mess, and even if it can gain power for a while, it will not last long. "
