The boss's wise and kind face wore a smile. "Before, when there were fewer people, everyone ate from the same pot, and some individuals were given high-standard treatment. It was okay to mess around, but now that you want to expand on a larger scale, you can't do without rules. However, since it's impossible to form a true social system in the short term, the points system is a very useful policy in the transition period."
Lin Man suddenly understood, and looked at the boss with admiration. "Grandpa Zhuang, this system is great, but it needs someone to run it, supervise it, and keep statistics, right? How about you take charge?"
Zhuang Xuzhi did not agree: "I am an old man."
"Then I'll find someone to help you. Are there any grandpas or grandmas who can help you with this? Just pull them over. I don't understand these things. The others either don't understand or are uncouth. Our base still needs you seniors to lead it to be decent!" Lin Man has been with these old people for a long time, and he has learned the skill of flattery without any instruction.
But she was willing to shoot it. These people are really amazing. The energy of cultural and technical people is really shining. It's incredible.
Zhuang Xuzhi smiled, thinking that after everyone finished their current tasks, they might become a group of idle old people. It would be good to find something to do. If a person cannot find his position in the group and cannot realize his own value, it will not last long.
He agreed, but before agreeing, he asked: "We will let you manage the base, will there be any special treatment? For example, fruits or something?" You still have to fight for your own benefits.
Well, another one who is thinking about Apple.
Lin Man agreed repeatedly, thought for a moment, and then asked the question that confused him: "Grandpa Zhuang, do you think we should accept those who come to us for refuge?"
"Accept it, why not? Population is key to development." Zhuang Xuzhi said with a smile: "Dayan Mountain has all the basic living conditions, but there are too few people. If you're worried about the quality of the people, just throw out the worst ones and give the rest a probationary period, expel the unqualified ones and recruit the qualified ones. You have Commander Lin's support behind you, so you don't have to worry about not being able to control the people, so just go ahead and do it with confidence."
Zhuang Xuzhi sighed, looking at the young girl whose face was still very innocent. "There are many bad people nowadays, but there are also many good people. It's a blessing for those people to come to you. There's a saying that goes, 'If you're poor, you can take care of yourself; if you're rich, you can help the world.' You have the conditions and ability now. If you can help more people, it will be of great benefit to you personally."
Lin Man was lost in thought. No one had ever told her these words before. She didn't think she had such a broad mind, but she would be happy if she could help those who deserved it.
When she was in the most difficult and helpless time, she always hoped that a good person would come down from the sky to help her. She was disappointed countless times, and then she waited for Guan Guan and Kong Zi. The feeling of happiness was really indescribable.
Now, it’s not a bad idea to be a good person to others.
She nodded slowly: "I understand, thank you, Grandpa Zhuang."
Zhuang Xuzhi was still cheerful. If nothing unexpected happened, the rest of his life would depend on this little girl. He naturally hoped that she would get better and better and become a leader with good ability, courage and vision. Being able to have a positive influence on this leader's growth path was also something to be proud of.
…
After talking with Zhuang Xuzhi, Lin Man decided to go out and find someone to rescue the people.
Xue An said that their safe zone was not far from here, but in a very hidden village. The only way in and out was through a suspension bridge that had been repaired over and over again. That night, zombie birds attacked, and some people were eaten by them. Some people fell off the cliff and died in panic, and most of the rest escaped.
In other words, there are two or three hundred people scattered there. Apart from the forty or fifty people who bravely come to ask for shelter, there are still many more people wandering around. This is extremely unsafe and a hidden danger for Dayanshan. If they encounter a zombie from other provinces, the consequences will be unimaginable.
She asked Xue An and a few of the forty or fifty people who had recovered their strength to lead the way, and set out in several small teams. As expected, the harvest was quite fruitful. In two days, they brought back more than a hundred people. As for the others, some were clearly dead, and some had gotten lost, so there was nothing they could do.
Because of the addition of these people, the base started building houses again, and the second batch of 300 people were finally selected. After emergency training, they boarded a transport plane and flew to Dayan Mountain.
Those who set out together were the 5,000 people loaned to the Nanming base, or in other words, these 300 people were smuggled out among the 5,000 people.
Lin Man was delighted to hear the news and asked Lin Zhongrong, "Who sent them here? Is Lin Cheng here?"
Lin Zhongrong immediately became unhappy. What does this have to do with Lin Cheng?
"Because I have a gift for him."
"Huh?" Lin Zhongrong felt even worse.
Lin Man quickly added: "I have a gift for you. Dad, can't you come? If Lin Cheng comes, it will be the same if I give the gift to him." Anyway, she must give the gift in person and in person!
"Besides, it's time for Zhang Kaiqi and the others to go back. They'll soon be out of work. We can't let them stay here for the winter for free."
Lin Zhongrong thought it made sense. How could his precious daughter help others support a bunch of good-for-nothings for nothing?
However, he didn't tell Lin Cheng about this: "Lin Cheng needs to go to the Nanming base first to hand over to the leader there. I will contact him later and ask him to come to your place."
"No, no, the Nanming base is very close, I'll go there." It would be bad if someone came over, it would be difficult to deliver apples! Everyone was so nervous about the apples. She suddenly took out several boxes for Lin Cheng to take away. Was she trying to force someone to rebel?
Lin went to pack things with great satisfaction. There were several boxes of big apples, all of which were in the space. There were also dried sweet potatoes, sweet potato flour, noodles, pickles, fresh corn, potatoes, and so on. All the things in the field were packed.
She decided that these would be New Year's goods for her father and Lin Cheng, enough to last them several months.
Of course, the most important things are the Tang sword and the beauty hammer. She must not leave them behind this time. She put the beauty hammer in her bag. Since the Tang sword could not fit in, she wrapped it with a cloth strip and carried it on her back. She never left them behind.
What surprised Lin was that when she went to inform the nine second-generation rich kids, they were not overjoyed. Instead, they were all shocked and refused. If they couldn't refuse, they would look pitiful and say nice things with sad faces. Anyway, they all meant one thing: they didn't want to leave.
"We can work and we do a great job! We don't eat much either, so don't chase us away!" Zhang Kaiqi made his last struggle.
Lin Man squinted at him. "Not enough to eat?" Who was it that ate like a starving ghost? Because they were rushing to repair the greenhouse, the rations had been larger these past few days. After all, a full stomach is better for work. These nine people were only above-average at work, but they were top-notch at grabbing food. They'd received countless cold stares, but they shamelessly ignored them.
"Okay, pack up... No, it looks like you don't have anything either. We'll be leaving in an hour anyway," said Lin Man.
"Ah, so fast!"
“No!”
“I haven’t eaten the apple yet!”
The people around felt sorry for them when they saw them wailing like that, but when they heard that they were eyeing their apples, they immediately glared at them. How dare they set their sights on the apples? Go, go quickly!
Seeing that the apples were gone, Zhang Kaiqi and his companions begged again, "Please at least give us one last meal before we go!"
Lin Man: “…”
The newcomers were very surprised to see this noisy scene and whispered to the natives they were already familiar with: "Who are these people?"
"Look at the young men and women from the big base in the north. They refuse to leave and insist on working here. Do we need them?"
The person who said this might not be bragging about his own base. Look, the young men and women from the big bases come to our place and would rather work for free than leave! But even for this, we don’t want them!
The newcomers’ understanding of the Peace Base has indeed been further enhanced. They feel that they are extremely lucky and happy to be able to come here. Haven’t they seen that the young men and women at the National People’s Congress Base can’t stay even if they throw a tantrum?
They all made up their minds and decided to behave well so that they could successfully pass the observation period and obtain official status as base residents.
They exchanged glances, telling those fussy people to quiet down and not annoy the people here, so they could be kicked out together. If they refused to listen, they would report them. In short, they couldn't get implicated.
…
In the end, the nine young men and women had their meal, but Lin Man ruthlessly rejected their wish to buy some local specialties on credit. He just gave each of them two pieces of dried sweet potatoes and stuffed them into the plane.
Seeing that they were crying all the way, Lin Man was merciful and gave them three apples. He asked them to share one. There was no more. But they felt even sadder as they ate the apples. They wiped their tears and sniffed their noses and said, "It's so delicious, so delicious."
"Didn't they say they were going to implement a points system? I was wondering how many points I could earn from my previous work, and whether I could exchange them for a big apple."
“I want to move to another house.”
"I just want to eat baked sweet potatoes every day!"
"Their new shoes are so comfortable. I've already decided which style I want."
result--
They looked at each other, then hugged their heads and sobbed, "I really don't want to leave. I really want to stay!"
Lin Man: A bunch of idiots!
