Endless Winter: My Camp Upgrades Infinitely

Xia Hong had never been one to easily compromise.

Just like in his previous life, in the late stages of ALS, sensing that he was about to lose all ability to move and become completely useless, he directly chose to commit suicide.

If living meant having no dignity, then it was better to die a heroic death.

However, in this crisis-ridden winter world, achieving this goal was extremely difficult.

Hunger, cold, daytime, cold beasts, strange creatures…

Any one of these could take countless lives.

Relying on himself alone was impossible.

Only by uniting and gathering the strength of more people could this goal be achieved most quickly and effectively. This was the most profound understanding Xia Hong had gained since transmigrating.

Xia Hong believed that all people, by nature, yearned for a decent and dignified life. This was the most simple and essential need in the human heart, without exception.

He was like this, and so were Xia Chuan, Yuan Cheng, Yue Feng, and the others.

The other people in the Great Xia camp were the same.

And cold beast meat was the ticket to this decent life.

Before they could get cold beast meat, every time Xia Hong returned, the camp was lifeless. Except for the few who could cultivate with cold beast meat, everyone else lay listlessly by the fire.

But since Xia Hong started sharing the cold beast meat, they had changed.

Almost everyone, after eating their fill, would find opportunities to exercise, wanting to increase their strength, join the logging reserve team, and get a share of the cold beast meat.

The vitality that these people suddenly displayed made Xia Hong realize that everyone in the camp yearned for change. Given the opportunity, anyone could unleash great energy.

When countless individuals unleashing great energy formed a group and moved towards the same goal, no matter what the difficulties, they could not be stopped.

Many hands make light work; this was not just an empty phrase.

The size of a camp, distinguished by the number of people, was clear proof of this.

All camps knew that increasing the population was the only way to become stronger.

But limited by resources and strength, they couldn't do it.

But now, the Great Xia camp, relying on the small bonfire, was taking a different approach and could do it.

Naturally, Xia Hong couldn't stick to the old rules.

Putting aside personal gains, distributing a portion of the cold beast meat, allowing the camp's living strength to grow, absorbing more people, expanding the camp's scale, and then repeating the cycle, this was the best route to develop the camp.

Xia Chuan, Yuan Cheng, and the others were not stupid, but limited by their past experiences and knowledge, their vision was inevitably short-sighted.

Moreover, since ancient times, benefits have moved people's hearts.

Putting aside personal gains was never an easy task.

Fortunately, Xia Hong had set an example for them.

When Xia Ding and the logging team encountered misfortune, Xia Hong distributed the cold beast meat he brought back to them.

So now, Xia Hong had the confidence to ask them to do the same.

In fact, Xia Hong could completely have his way. He believed that under his strong command, whether it was Xia Chuan, Yuan Cheng, Yue Feng, or even everyone else in the camp, no one would oppose him.

With his current prestige, he could completely do it.

But he didn't. Instead, he chose to present the facts and reason with Xia Chuan and the others.

Abolishing an old system and establishing a new one was simple.

But making everyone understand the reasoning behind it, allowing the system to truly function, and even making everyone people who jointly maintained the system, was not so easy.

The purpose of any system was to regulate and develop the organization.

If the implementation of the new system caused Xia Chuan, Yuan Cheng, and others to have opinions about the rest of the camp, or even triggered conflicts, then it would run counter to this purpose.

Mainly because, recently, Xia Hong had clearly felt that Xia Chuan and the others, the first to break through to the Logging Realm, really had opinions about the rest of the camp, and it was indeed developing in the direction of conflict.

That's why Xia Hong was so patient in explaining to them clearly why he wanted to do this.

What benefits would this bring to them and to the camp.

After Xia Hong had explained all the pros and cons, seeing that Xia Chuan, Yuan Cheng, and the others had fallen into deep thought, he did not disturb them, but remained silent, waiting for everyone to understand his words.

After a long time, Yuan Cheng was the first to raise his head:

"Leader, I understand. Only when everyone becomes stronger can we truly not fear those cold beasts, and the previous tragedy will not happen again. I am willing to listen to you and still distribute the meat according to the 3-5-2 ratio."

"Even if an individual is strong, it cannot change the overall environment of our camp. The leader is right. Only when everyone plays a role can we live better and longer. I also agree that the meat distribution rules remain unchanged."

"That's right, we now have the ability to hunt, and there is more cold beast meat than before, enough to cultivate more Logging Realm combat power. If we still stick to the old rules, Great Xia will at most return to its previous situation. I also agree with the leader's opinion. The meat distribution rules will not change."

… … … …

Yue Feng, Lin Kai, and the other five also spoke in agreement, obviously Xia Hong's words had not only been heard by them, but also truly understood.

“Prioritizing the cultivation of more Logging Realm combat power is indeed more important!”

Unexpectedly, the last one to understand was his younger brother, Xia Chuan.

Seeing the sincerity on everyone's faces, knowing that they were sincerely agreeing, Xia Hong breathed a sigh of relief, and a smile appeared on his face.

This matter was neither big nor small, but it was definitely not a trivial matter.

The distribution of benefits has always been a difficult problem throughout the ages.

Whether to prioritize the individual or the whole has never been settled.

But it was certain that the current Great Xia should definitely prioritize the whole.

A group of people who had no strength and could not even go out at night not only provided no help to the camp, but also burdened those in the Logging Realm.

Even picking crystal fruits had a certain risk.

Abandoning them was naturally impossible, but endlessly picking crystal fruits to support them was even more undesirable.

As the saying goes, it is better to teach a man to fish than to give him fish. Xia Hong deeply agreed.

Helping them become stronger and improving their ability to survive was the right path.

Moreover, as the strength of everyone in the camp grew, the speed of resource accumulation would also become faster and faster. With more resources, the more people could be supported. In this cycle, the future of the Great Xia camp would be limitless.

Of course, more importantly, the resources for upgrading the camp system were also secured.

Although only a small bonfire had been opened for the system buildings, judging from its upgrade conditions and the conditions for opening other buildings, the resources Xia Hong would need in the future would definitely be a massive number.

Without the support of a stable and large camp population, Xia Hong himself would definitely not be able to obtain so many resources, so he had to rely on more people.

The establishment of the new rules was a challenge to the inherent concepts of this world, and also his own first practice of the Great Xia camp's development philosophy.

Fortunately, with the prestige accumulated in the early stage, and some hard work, everyone listened to him.

"After all, it's just a makeshift team of a hundred people. Take it slowly. Once there is a first time, there will be a second time. The days of getting on the right track are not far away!"

With the new rules established and everyone's knots untied, Xia Hong stopped thinking about it.

"It's going to be dark soon, get ready to go out."

The others nodded in response and turned to get their weapons.

Only Xu Ning, who had just broken through, knew that he was about to go out for the first time, and he touched the stone axe that had already been hung on his waist, his expression the most excited.
