Endless Winter: My Camp Upgrades Infinitely
#28 - Just surviving is not enough [Seeking follow-up reading]
“Brother…”
Xia Chuan hurriedly opened his mouth, and accidentally changed his address back to 'brother' again. He was glared at by Xia Hong and quickly corrected himself.
“Leader, we unanimously believe that we should still do as before. Ninety percent of the cold beast meat should be distributed to those of us who go out hunting, and the remaining ten percent should be distributed to others. This way, we can become stronger faster, and there will be more and more prey.”
Yuan Cheng on the other side couldn't help but speak up as well.
“In addition, the quota for crystal fruits is too much at two per person per day. It should also be restored to the previous one, one per person per day, which is enough to maintain their survival.
Those three ice jade trees haven't produced new fruits yet. According to the current rate of consumption, it will only be enough to eat for a little over a month. If a new batch doesn't grow out after we finish eating, it will be a big problem then.”
In fact, everyone wanted to restore the old system.
Xia Hong had already known this in his heart.
Including himself, there are currently eight Lumbering Realm cultivators in the camp.
This is not far from when Xia Ding was around.
The Lumbering Team has been reorganized, so the old system should be restored.
Not only Yuan Cheng and Yue Feng, but even his younger brother Xia Chuan thought so.
Xia Hong didn't answer immediately. He first looked around at everyone before slowly speaking:
“I'll ask you a question. What are the goals of you seven?”
“To survive.”
Xia Chuan was the first to speak.
“To survive, and to make sure my mother has enough to eat.”
“To survive, and to let my younger brother survive too.”
“To protect my sister, and to survive.”
… … … …
Although the answers of the seven were different, the content they expressed was almost the same, nothing more than surviving and protecting their loved ones.
“If that's the case, then we can just go out every day to find ice jade trees and pick crystal fruits. Why bother so much and risk our lives to hunt?”
Xia Hong's question stunned everyone.
“Because you all know that only by becoming stronger can you survive, right?”
Everyone nodded.
“Then when I first hunted the Snow Mane, I shouldn't have shared it with you. I should have eaten all the cold beast flesh and blood myself, and become stronger quickly, wouldn't that have allowed me to continue to survive?”
When everyone heard this, their expressions suddenly froze, and then one after another, shame appeared on their faces.
“My goal is to become stronger and survive, and yours is the same, and so is theirs.”
When he said “theirs,” Xia Hong stretched out his hand and pointed to the rest of the camp gathered around the bonfire, and then continued:
“During this period, you have all been out with me, and you should have seen that the strength of the cold beasts is far greater than ours. Therefore, whether it's relying on me alone or relying on the eight of us, we can't guarantee our survival.”
Xia Hong paused, and added:
“Even thirteen people won't do. Otherwise, our father's group wouldn't have had an accident, right?”
“The reason I share the cold beast meat with you is because I know that relying on one person's strength is far from enough to survive. So, I'm pinning my hopes on you breaking through quickly, so that there will be more people in the Lumbering Realm. This way, it will be safer for us to go out, and we will harvest more from lumbering and hunting.”
“Now I'm giving the majority of the cold beast meat to the rest of the young people in the camp, and the intention is still the same as before. I hope that there will be more and more Lumbering Realm cultivators in the camp, and the team will become larger and larger.”
After Xia Hong finished speaking, he saw that everyone was thinking with their heads lowered, and he sighed slightly.
In fact, this is a matter of benefit distribution.
Since ancient times, benefits have been moving people's hearts, especially when these benefits are related to life.
Was there a problem with the rules Xia Ding implemented before?
Actually, no.
But it depends on the situation. At that time, the Great Xia Camp had no hunting ability, so the cold beast meat was sporadic, sometimes there and sometimes not.
In a situation where there was too little meat for too many monks, Xia Ding could only give priority to the members of the Lumbering Team.
Now it's different. With the small torch that can attract cold beasts, the camp already has the initial ability to hunt. Even if the cold beast meat is not abundant, it is at least much more than before.
If we still stubbornly stick to the old system, it will not only be unpopular, but also greatly slow down the development speed of the camp.
Let me explain a very simple principle.
Xia Hong can now free himself from the lumbering work. Now, every time he goes out, Xia Chuan and Yuan Cheng are responsible for the lumbering work, while he specializes in exploring the terrain and finding the location of the cold beasts.
It is foreseeable that in the future, when there are enough Lumbering Realm members, the camp can completely divide into two teams, one specializing in hunting and the other specializing in lumbering, and even a team can be formed to pick crystal fruits and explore the terrain.
Any organization, if it wants to increase its income, must divide its labor and divide different functional departments, each performing its own duties, in order to maximize its income.
Xia Hong can only patiently change this principle, which was so simple in his previous life, into words that they can understand and tell them.
“Cold beasts are very powerful, but have you noticed that the more people like Yue Feng and Lin Kai break through, the higher our hunting success rate becomes? Today, Xu Ning also broke through, and tomorrow our success rate may be even higher.”
“Think about it, if there are twenty, thirty, or even forty or fifty people in the Lumbering Realm, then even if it's a Snow Mane or a Frost Wolf, we can pile it to death with our lives. Are we still afraid of not having cold beast meat?”
These words made Xia Chuan and the others' eyes light up.
The steady increase in the hunting success rate during this period with Xia Hong was something they had all witnessed, and indeed, the more people there were, the higher the success rate became.
Especially Xia Hong's last sentence, that with forty or fifty people, they could pile the cold beasts to death, made them think deeply.
During this period, they had only dealt with two types of cold beasts, the Snow Mane and the Frost Wolf. Although it was single, they had the most detailed understanding of the habits and strength of these two types of cold beasts.
The Snow Mane has great strength, but the highest is only about ten thousand pounds; while the Frost Wolf's advantage is speed, and its strength is not great. According to Xia Hong, if there are really forty or fifty Lumbering Realm combatants, it would not be a problem to encircle and hunt these two types of cold beasts head-on.
“Moreover, you must all remember what I'm about to say.”
Xia Hong stood up and pointed at everyone around the bonfire, and said in a deep voice:
“You all just said that you want to protect your loved ones, whether it's your younger brother, older sister, or mother, which is very good, but I also hope you remember.”
“The outside world is full of dangers, and none of us can guarantee that we will survive every time we go out, every time we hunt.”
“One day, if any of us accidentally dies, there will be your relatives among those people.”
“At that time, if someone proposes not to give them cold beast meat and only let them eat one crystal fruit a day, would you hope that I agree?”
Xia Hong deliberately emphasized his voice in the last question.
This question seemed to be deafening, and the bodies of the seven people trembled.
They instantly realized how selfish and foolish their thoughts were.
Especially Xia Chuan and Yuan Cheng, who had just proposed the reform, lowered their heads, their faces full of shame.
“We are a whole. Since we are a whole, we can't just think about ourselves. Cold beast meat is very important because it can make people stronger, but if only a few people become stronger, it will be like when the previous Lumbering Team was around. You have all seen the final result with your own eyes.”
“In front of the strange creatures, we have no power to fight back and can only stretch our necks and be slaughtered.”
“Therefore, we must improve our overall strength. When everyone in the camp is in the Lumbering Realm one day, are we still afraid of cold beasts?”
“At that time, even if the strange creatures come, we will have the power to fight.”
“Note that the whole I'm talking about also includes your relatives.”
Xia Hong also said these words with emotion.
After everyone heard this, their expressions gradually changed from shame to firmness, and the way they looked at Xia Hong became more and more sincere and convinced.
Even, at some point, many people from the bonfire also gathered around. Hearing Xia Hong's words, their faces were also full of emotion.
“Our goal is to survive, which is true, but just surviving is not enough. We must live with dignity and have confidence.”
“We are human beings, not creatures under the shadows.”
“Those cold beasts and strange creatures, they are.”
“Sooner or later, I will make them kneel before me, before the Great Xia Camp, and tremble!”
Brothers, chasing after the new book period is very important. I hope that whether you are raising a book or are reading it, please help me click on it. Thank you very much.
