Disaster Strikes

After the task of destroying the town's logistics base was completed, the temporary conscripts dispersed.

After resting for a few days, Chen Mo ushered in a long-term strategic task.

Tip: Control the Black Forest Gold Mine and ensure that 1 ton of gold is collected and sent back to the gathering place every month.

After receiving the task, Chen Mo immediately led the mini-legion, counted the number of people, and went to the Black Forest Mine.

The Black Forest Mine is about 300 kilometers away from the gathering place of the River of Distress.

In the future, every month, a society will be responsible for transporting the gold mined here to the gathering place.

The doomsday mission is a long-term mission, which may stay for several years or even decades. Therefore, these materials will be an astonishing number after long-term mining and accumulation. The monthly mining volume of the Black Forest Gold Mine is 1 ton, which can be called a world-class gold mine. The monarch will send a small legion to garrison for a long time.

Fortunately, the Scourge Army has already engaged in direct combat with the Fourth and Fifth Army Corps of the Vidoan Empire and the First Air Force Corps.

The two sides have engaged in fierce exchanges of fire in hundreds of towns, from the sky to the ground, and the all-round battle has lasted for three days.

The Vidoan Empire has launched a national mobilization order.

According to intelligence, this war is likely to last for more than a month.

On the Black Tail General, Chen Mo looked at the huge mine deep in the forest, where many large machines were working and miners were constantly coming and going.

As the four Manta aerial platforms landed, the miners showed fear on their faces. A group of more than 30 people seemed to have been waiting here for a long time and had a brief exchange with Chen Mo.

"These workers are sneaky and will run away as soon as they get a chance. I have hanged dozens of them these days, but it doesn't work at all. I had to recruit another group of workers, but I still can't maintain the previous production."

Chen Mo heard this and looked at the people who were hanged on the edge of the mine.

This president obviously wanted to use this to deter other workers.

"I understand. Leave it to me next."

After both parties completed the handover ceremony, as the members of this society left, Chen Mo came to the office, called the main personnel of the mine to understand the situation, and held a small meeting with Qian Song, Bing Ling, and Yan Wang.

"I basically understand the situation here. Personally, if we want to maintain gold production and complete the monarch's tasks without being so tired, we need to change the current slave system and adopt a policy of appeasement and joint responsibility. We must clearly distinguish rewards and punishments."

Yan Wang was puzzled: "Uh, what do you mean?"

Chen Mo had to explain it in detail.

"If you want to improve the work efficiency here, on the one hand, you need to increase the manpower, but this will increase our management costs. Next, you don't need to do anything else. You can only spend your best efforts to keep an eye on these slaves every day. This is the lowest strategy. On the other hand, it is to use technology to liberate productivity, which we cannot achieve in a short period of time. The last aspect is an effective management policy, which requires a reasonable reward and punishment mechanism to motivate the enthusiasm of workers."

Economic management talents among the natural disasters are even scarcer than array masters.

After hearing the management system proposed by Chen Mo, the three of them showed puzzlement.

After all, in the eyes of the natural disasters, insufficient production requires more manpower and severe punishment to increase production, but this will inevitably lead to the defection of the exploited.

In this way, the monarch will send a small army to manage and guard.

Qian Song shook her head. She didn't want to waste energy on this, so she said: "Traveler, just tell me what task you have."

"Okay, the time for our next task may not be short. You three societies will gather people to garrison near the mining area. Don't interfere with the normal order of the mining area, and don't cause damage outside at will. I will give you the freedom of the second-level war period. Everyone can rest, entertain, study, and improve during this period, but you can't plunder and destroy."

"Second-level war period?"

The three of them showed incredible surprise.

Just as Chen Mo said, this task will last at least half a year.

So the three of them said that they would strictly restrain the members and left one after another.

Next.

Chen Mo called the members of the travel agency together and gave them some instructions, saying that if they didn't want to live too hard in the future, they must abide by the rules and regulations in the mining area and strictly prohibit illegal and disorderly things from happening, otherwise they will be severely punished.

Everyone agreed.

Next, Chen Mo held a general meeting of all employees in the mining area, saying that he would thoroughly rectify the order in the mining area. He first dismissed more than 200 slaves who were forcibly conscripted and issued travel expenses, and then counted the workers in the mining area, a total of 862 people. Chen Mo divided them into 86 groups and 8 large groups, and adopted a collective punishment system.

After that.

He began to announce the next salary performance award and the job promotion system, and then improved the workers' food and accommodation treatment, medical benefits, and promised that everyone would be free after he left.

After the meeting, Chen Mo took a half-day vacation.

"Boss, the list of supplies has been listed."

Chen Mo took Tiantian's list of supplies, checked it carefully, and nodded thoughtfully.

"That is to say, at least 1.2 tons of gold must be mined every month to maintain normal operations."

Of the mined gold, 1 ton must be handed over to the Lord of the Distressed River, and the other 0.2 tons is the cost of maintaining the operation of the mining area. After all, Chen Mo has made many promises.

In order to reduce trouble, he naturally has to purchase materials fairly and form a mutually beneficial relationship with the surrounding local forces.

If he always goes out to plunder materials and constantly exploits the people inside, he can only rely on force.

Frequent appearances to suppress the chaos will be contrary to Chen Mo's model of relying on institutional management.

"Yes."

After getting Tiantian's response, Chen Mo said again: "So that means that the gold exceeding 1.2 tons will be our extra income?"

"Ah?"

Tiantian was stunned.

In the next few days.

Chen Mo used the routines of killing chickens to scare monkeys, profit-driven, coercion and inducement, and finally stabilized the order in the mining area, and the gold production in the mining area has obviously rebounded.

Seeing that Chen Mo's model of executing tasks has initially taken effect, everyone's confidence increased immediately.

Compared with the slave system, this task mode is obviously much easier, and people don't have to run around tiredly every day.

So Chen Mo, who was busy, actually practiced "Xisui Jing" and "Xuan Yang Jing" Volume 1 in the mining area.

To practice "Xisui Jing", you need to go through three stages: tension and relaxation, breathing, and years.

The so-called tension and relaxation.

It is the performance of muscles and bones. In spring and summer, strengthening muscles and bones requires practicing strong and brave martial arts moves such as the Vajra Fist. In autumn and winter, relaxing muscles and activating joints requires the assistance of softer martial arts moves similar to yoga.

The so-called breathing.

It means that the five internal organs correspond to the heaven and earth, reflecting the human body universe theory.

As for years.

It is the perception of the state of mind.

Therefore, if you want to practice "Xisui Jing", you also need to go through the mental practice similar to the boy's skill, but the way to deal with it is not desire, but the years that reveal a heavy feeling.

If you can practice in a place with lush vegetation and full of vitality, you will have a deeper understanding of the mystery of one flower and one world, and achieve twice the result with half the effort.

This black forest is just right for Chen Mo's practice in the relaxation stage!

So next.

Chen Mo would go to the black forest on the edge of the mining area every morning, and choose different practice methods according to the season. After he practiced the Vajra Fist and the "Marrow Washing Sutra" to change his internal strength again and again, he felt that the influence of the bone-changing power on the Vajra Fist was quietly showing.

He felt that if he wanted to further improve his Vajra Fist, he seemed to need to add a flexible and elegant body movement. After the fusion of skills, it would be more suitable for him.

And the specific attributes of this move still require him to continue to practice the "Marrow Washing Sutra" for a deeper understanding.

"When you reach the middle stage, you should be able to understand the Vajra Fist."

The internal force martial arts moves cannot be achieved overnight, and they cannot be cultivated overnight. They need to be persisted every day.

Generally, he practiced from 6 am to 9 am, and after a good time, he came back to practice the first volume of "Xuan Yang Jing". With the help of Omega's clone, Chen Mo was able to maintain his advantage in basic skills.

The first volume of "Xuan Yang Jing", the circulation of spiritual energy, mainly focuses on practicing the dragon eye fireball, and the health-preserving method of accumulating essence and nourishing sharpness. The concentration of spiritual energy in the Black Forest barely reached the level of ordinary areas in the Guixu world. With the blessing of the spirit gathering array of the Breath-Resting Mirror, it can be regarded as meeting the requirements of practice.

In the evening.

Chen Mo began to capture the surrounding flying birds, looking for suitable C2 evolution specimens.

He can now be sure that the next development direction of the C2 bomb is the ability to fly, so it is now looking for more suitable flying bird specimens.

About half a month later.

Chen Mo finally found a creature called "Black Owl Falcon". His flying speed is the fastest in Chen Mo's test.

But because of this, the Black Owl Falcon is extremely difficult to capture.

The two or three that Chen Mo had captured with great effort could not meet the large demand for his anatomical study, so he issued tasks to the surrounding villagers through Tiantian. As the saying goes, there must be brave men under a big reward, and soon a large number of black falcons were sent to Chen Mo through various channels.

So every night, Chen Mo would study carefully in a quiet room for a while.

He seemed to have returned to the Gran Academy of Natural Sciences in the Blood Moon World.

Unknowingly, more than half a year had passed.

The occupied areas of the Scourge continued to resist, but the Black Forest area was very peaceful. Even Chen Mo did not expect that his actions to establish and maintain order would reduce a lot of trouble for himself. The influence of the surrounding rebels almost never affected the life in the mining area.

Some villagers who have established a bond of interest with the mining area will even take the initiative to maintain the mining area.

After all, it is quite difficult to maintain basic vitality in this doomsday war.

And in such a calm and regular life, Chen Mo not only completed the basic structural understanding of the C2 black falcon clay bomb, but also improved his practice of "Xi Sui Jing" and "Xuan Yang Jing".
