Chapter 101, Knowing and Making Good Use

All the lights in the Morgan Building lit up at once, which shocked everyone who was viewing various products to stop all their movements, and then everyone burst into cheers and applause.

The restoration of power means that the team is one step closer to resuming production and everyone returning to normal life.

No one expected that power could be restored so quickly. Originally, Clyde said it would take five days.

When Egg asked Clyde about the electricity problem, Clyde did subconsciously hide part of the truth.

First of all, if you pull wires from the broadcast tower to a building in Jixi Town, it may indeed take 3-5 days. This is based on Clyde knowing where there are tons of wires and various electrical tools.

Under the premise.

But there is one exception here, and that is the Morgan Building.

The Morgan Building is special. It uses an independent power supply line, and the line is directly connected to the small hydropower transmission hub. The specific reason is unknown, and Clyde is too lazy to think about it.

Before Clyde climbed the broadcast tower last time, he went to the transmission hub to check and found that this massive power outage was probably due to a short circuit somewhere, causing the fuse of the high-voltage transformer to overload and fall off.

After Clyde pulled down all the sub-control power switch blades, he used an insulating rod to push up the repaired transformer fuse blade. Then, he closed the switch of the broadcasting tower, restoring the power supply to the broadcasting tower.

Today, Clyde came to the transmission hub again. With the mentality of giving it a try first, he closed the sub-control switch of the Morgan Building.

Fortunately, there was no tripping and the line was very stable. When Clyde walked out of the small house at the transmission hub, he saw the brightly lit Morgan Building in the distance.

When it comes to electrifying the Morgan Building, it's as simple as closing the switch and done.

Such a simple process, but the preconditions behind it are not simple at all.

In addition to all kinds of luck, what is more important is that Clyde is an electrician who is extremely familiar with the local power transmission network.

Although it was so easy for Clyde to do it, it would have been impossible for anyone else to do it.

Therefore, when Clyde approached Egger and asked for a reward, Egger readily took off his watch and gave it to Clyde. This was what he deserved.

After Clyde took the watch, he walked aside happily. As for Egg, he went to the watch counter and picked up a watch at random and put it on.

This thing has no appeal to him.

After turning on the power just now, Father Locke talked to Walton for a long time. Using the power supply as a practical example, Father Locke explained in detail the evangelical team's construction and renovation plan for Jixi Town.

I have to say that after listening to what Father Locke said, Walton felt that there were indeed very good people in the gospel team who could come up with such a good idea.

But when Father Locke asked him for material support, Walton rejected it in the blink of an eye.

During the negotiation, Father Locke made a fatal mistake. He was too honest.

Two very important skills in negotiation are: you can let your opponent see some of your cards, and you have to let your opponent see some of the cards you have covered.

At this point, Andy did a very good job.

When Andy was negotiating, his words were both sincere and full of uncertainty. You couldn't tell the edge of his trump card just by listening to his words.

Father Locke, on the other hand, honestly confessed the situation of his team to his opponent. He wanted to impress the opponent with his true feelings.

Obviously, Father Locke's true feelings are useful for Egg, but they are ineffective for people like Walton. And more importantly, the team's trump card was exposed by Father Locke. Walton now knows about the gospel team.

Achilles heel: too small a scale.

The gospel team currently only has 12 people. No matter what your composition is, the scale is too small.

The scale is small, so the strength must be limited. Translation, translation, that is to say, even if you take Jixi Town, it is still unknown how long you can hold it.

When the Morgan Building is electrified, it will become a very visible landmark.

After all the survivors heard about and discovered the Morgan Building, they would inevitably migrate here in a steady stream. A gospel team of only 12 people would not be able to occupy such a huge fortress for a long time.

Walton is waiting for another powerful team to settle in Jixi Town. No matter how he takes it from the gospel team, he can sell these supplies at a good price by himself, which will be much better than opening the door and giving out gifts now.

It's the same as the electricity supply to the Moore Building. Certain things can be done easily if you find the right person.

Let’s talk the other way around.

For certain things, if the person doing it is not suitable, not only will it be impossible to make progress, but it may also push things in a worse direction.

Father Locke is good at many things, but he is not good at negotiation. If this matter falls on Andy, sooner or later Andy will be able to trick the door open.

Even if Andy is not used and Iger is half talked and half threatened, the same effect can be achieved.

Unfortunately, no one noticed this.

Iger subconsciously believed that it would be better for a leader to act personally than for his subordinates. He was guilty of the superstitious leadership disease of the Central Plains people.

This is indeed the case in the Central Plains. There are many things that subordinates cannot knock down, but after the boss comes forward, they can get them done with a meal and a cup of tea.

But Americans don't accept this trick.

On the contrary, they will feel that "I have grasped your weakness." The higher the level of the person negotiating with me, the more you want from me.

Then I can't build a high-rise building from the ground and charge sky-high prices.

As for Andy, he thinks that since he is not a member of the board of directors, he does not have to worry about it. Americans do not recommend themselves and take the initiative to apply for a job.

Father Locke felt that negotiation was a matter of very heavy responsibility. Once the negotiation collapsed, the negotiator would be under great responsibility pressure, so as a good man, Father Locke did not leave this heavy responsibility to his subordinates.

As for Vance, he doesn't care about your hammer, you can do whatever you want.

So, driven by the common "tacit understanding", Father Locke personally came on the scene, and as expected, he messed up the negotiation with Walton.

What's worse is that Father Locke strengthened Walton's confidence in never opening the door in disguise, which completely ended the option of peace talks for everyone.

Of course, no one felt that things were so bad at the moment. On the contrary, the power on to the Moore Building brought a festive atmosphere to the entire team.

Today, all modern kitchen tools were put into use, and everyone rushed to show off their cooking skills. In the end, Sister Maria and Joanna knocked them away one by one.

A bunch of useless things.

With the help of various home appliances, today's dinner is very efficient and very rich.

Just as everyone gathered in the furniture store on the second floor, in a cheerful atmosphere, the huge and luxurious dining table was filled with all kinds of fragrant and tempting food, drinks, and even alcohol. At this time, a brown car appeared.

Stopped in front of the Morgan Building.

After the man in the car got out of the car, he looked up at the Morgan Building shining in the night, and his heart was filled with a pious sense of belonging.

This is the gospel team and their Jixi Town.

"cheers!"

The wine glasses raised high were filled with liquids of various colors, and they vied with each other to collide with their companions on the opposite side, making crisp sounds.

At this time, everyone noticed a person emerging from the stairs.

The laughter and laughter stopped instantly, twelve people turned their heads together, and twelve pairs of eyes stared at him.

The man tried his best to put on a friendly smile, waved to everyone and said, "Hi, everyone, I'm Ryan Cole."
