Big Camphor Tree Base.
At the construction site of the Third Outer City, Old Dong offered nurous suggestions on the electric truck, benefiting Zhang San and the others greatly.
By the ti he finished his lengthy talk, almost half an hour had passed.
During this ti, Li Yu was constantly fretting about how to deal with Old Dong.
Currently, Zhang San had already proven his capability through the electric lift and this electric truck. Although not top-notch talent, he was much needed in the base.
As for Old Dong, he was even more remarkable. With his qualifications and abilities, he could certainly fulfill the role of a key figure in establishing a Power Research Institute.
However, should this person start as Cooperative Personnel, or should he directly enter the Outer City?
If he starts rely as Cooperative Personnel, given that he’s not in the field, what if he runs away one day?
But if he were to enter the Outer City directly, what about the others like Dongfeng?
During this period, Li Yu thought a lot and finally decided to take it one step at a ti.
Just as Old Dong finished speaking, Li Gang erged from Weng City.
"Big Brother, Second Uncle and Ju Tianrui have explained the general situation of our base to those people. They all want to stay," Li Gang leaned toward Li Yu and said softly.
Li Yu nodded, then asked, "Do they know that joining us ans starting as Cooperative Personnel?"
Li Gang replied, "They know. Second Uncle ans that since they’re unfamiliar with this area and lack transportation, he wants them to directly participate in constructing the Third Outer City to exchange for food and points. He asks for your opinion."
This idea coincided with Li Yu’s plan. So he said, "Alright, I understand. I’m wrapping things up here too and will bring Old Dong back shortly."
Li Gang didn’t leave and stayed next to Li Yu like Dapao.
"Old Dong, co here for a mont," Li Yu called out to Old Dong.
Upon hearing this, Old Dong imdiately ran toward Li Yu.
"Director Li, you called ," Old Dong said, slightly bowing as he stood beside Li Yu.
"Let briefly explain the rules of the Big Camphor Tree Base. The base is divided into four levels: the last level is Cooperative Personnel, followed by Extra Staff, Outer City Personnel, and finally Inner City Personnel. Generally, you need to complete certain tasks and make contributions, like gathering supplies or building materials, to exchange for food and upgrade your points.
Currently, most people at this construction site are Cooperative Personnel with the Big Camphor Tree Base. They assist in constructing the Third Outer City and receive so food and points daily.
Once upgraded to Extra Staff, they receive a minimum of food each month, even if no tasks are temporarily assigned, as long as they fully obey the orders of the Big Camphor Tree Base.
........
Li Yu continued to introduce the situation of the Big Camphor Tree Base while leading him back to Weng City.
Old Dong listened thoughtfully to Li Yu’s introduction, nodding in agreent from ti to ti.
After Li Yu finished speaking, they were almost at the gate.
Li Yu turned his head and asked Old Dong, "What do you think? Do you want to stay?"
Old Dong replied without hesitation, "Of course, I definitely want to stay."
There’s no free lunch in the world. In this Doomsday, no one will give you precious food for no reason. You have to pay a price for everything.
Only with hard work can you reap rewards.
If the Big Camphor Tree Base provided them with free food, Old Dong would undoubtedly be happy, but he’d worry about whether the base could sustain itself for long by supporting people for free. Eventually, it would collapse.
However, the four levels that Li Yu explained aptly addressed this issue.
Food can be given to you, but you need to provide corresponding value to the Big Camphor Tree Base.
Hearing Old Dong agree without hesitation.
Li Yu was in quite a good mood.
"Good," Li Yu nodded to Old Dong with a smile in his eyes.
As they entered Weng City, Li Yu noticed the delighted expressions of Dongfeng and the others, indicating they were satisfied with their roles as Cooperative Personnel.
Even though they lacked food, they sought hope more than anything, the hope of seeing a future.
Even as Cooperative Personnel, the Big Camphor Tree Base wouldn’t directly provide them food. Without finding supplies or contributing, there wouldn’t be any food. But, the base offered them hope.
It could be said that the base painted a bright picture, but this picture had been realized by many. The Cooperative Personnel who didn’t starve and the staff who transitioned from Extra Staff to Outer City or Inner City Personnel were living examples.
Real and tangible examples happening before their eyes.
As Li Yu entered Weng City, Second Uncle spoke to him, "I’ve mostly explained everything to them, and they’re all willing to stay and cooperate with the Big Camphor Tree Base."
"Mm," Li Yu nodded.
He then turned his head towards Dongfeng and the others and said, "Great. The Big Camphor Tree Base welcos you. So, I will arrange for soone to find housing nearby for you shortly. Since you’ve just arrived, take a rest today. Tomorrow, you can start working at the construction site. You’ll get als for the day and certain points. Any questions?"
