The convoy set off under the leadership of Ryan, and the pickup truck was surprisingly quiet. Sure enough, after kicking Thomas out, the whole world became quiet.
Iger was sitting in the back seat of the pickup truck. He did not talk to Nicholas, nor did Nicholas take the initiative to talk to him.
Today is the first time that Iger has come into contact with Nicholas, but it does not mean that Iger is not familiar with Nicholas.
This is all thanks to Phoebe.
When she had nothing to do during her last field trip, Phoebe told Iger about and commented on the more prominent people in the Love and Family team.
As a professional psychiatrist, Egger believes that Phoebe's comments are extremely accurate.
Egger remembers Phoebe's comment about Nicholas: "Capable and ambitious."
After saying these comments, Phoebe sighed and said: "I originally thought Nicholas was already a very good leader, but now it seems that he is far from it."
Phoebe said this because she compared Nicholas and Egg.
If we just look at the data for comparison, Nicholas's excellence surpasses Egger's.
Regardless of his handsome appearance, strong body, humorous conversation, excellent character background and complex interpersonal network, Iger is not worthy of carrying Nicholas's shoes.
But in reality, Egger's team-leading ability surpassed Nicholas in seconds.
If the leader of the Love and Family team had been replaced by Iger, Phoebe believed that they would have taken over the neighboring town long ago, why would they have stayed in a small house eating boiled potatoes for several months.
After all, what all teams currently need most is the ability to actually solve problems.
Nicholas is not incapable, nor is he incapable of action, but the difference between people lies first in their thinking.
Egger looked at the sky outside the car window. The sky was extremely gloomy today. There was probably going to be some precipitation, but he didn't know whether it would be snow or rain.
There is a tarpaulin on the pickup truck. Simple waterproofing is no problem, but if it rains and the rain is too heavy, some materials that are afraid of getting wet, such as quilts, bullets, etc., need to be transferred to the box truck.
Under Ryan's leadership, the two vehicles drove smoothly for more than an hour. At this time, Joanna saw the van's taillights flashing, so she slowly stopped with it.
"What's wrong?" Iger, who was sitting in the second row, asked Joanna.
"I don't know." Joanna didn't know why the truck stopped.
Egger opened the door and jumped out of the pickup truck. He took a few steps to the cab of the van. Ryan had already rolled down the window.
"Hey, why did you park the car?" Iger asked loudly to Ryan.
Ryan leaned out, stretched out his left hand and pointed forward. Egger followed Ryan's pointer and looked over, only to see a blurry figure ahead.
Damn it, there is a large group of infected people blocking the road ahead.

…
On the other side, in the conference room of Jixi Town, the breakfast meeting had just ended.
After the field team left the field just now, Andy continued his work report.
Andy was making a summary of the work over the past few days. From all aspects, the actual construction progress was not as good as expected.
In order to boost morale, Andy announced a decision of the board of directors. From today until the end of the construction period, everyone will receive an extra can reward at dinner every afternoon.
When Andy said this, everyone cheered enthusiastically.
After the meeting, looking at the happy people going to work, Andy sighed slightly, housekeeping was really difficult.
People especially like to sigh when they are tired.
It turns out that Iger likes to sigh involuntarily, and Andy also tried to persuade him that children should be more cheerful, as there is still a long way to go in life.
It turned out to be Andy himself, and now even he sighs often.
Housekeeping is stressful.
Andy knew very well that if Iger had not forcibly opened the warehouse that day, the gospel team would definitely not be as calm as it is now. Putting aside everything else, just the dozens of canned food supplements every day would add up to a considerable amount of consumption.
During this meeting, Iger told all the bad news. When he got to Andy, only the good news was left.
Of course, not all the news is good news, it's just that the less good news has been suppressed.
Regarding the food theft incident, several people discussed it yesterday and decided not to announce it for the time being. In the current situation of the team, directly breaking the news when there is no evidence will only bring great negative effects.
Old members will subconsciously think that the supplies are stolen by new members.
New members will think that there is a problem with team management and that the old members are passing the blame.
Team integration has not yet been completed, and all work must be done to prevent the team from being torn apart.
What Andy is more worried about is that he is afraid that announcing the incident will bring about a broken window effect. When people know that they will not be caught stealing materials, they will rush to try to steal, which will cause even greater losses.
Sometimes pretending to be blind is something you have to do.
Andy has his own management style. Compared to punishment, Andy prefers to use some benefits to encourage and motivate his subordinates.
Andy believes that everyone has their own shortcomings. As a team leader, it is more important to integrate the team to complete the current task, rather than acting as a moral judge to find fault with each subordinate.
Of course, this does not mean that the food theft issue should be ignored, but that this matter should be prioritized after the construction of Jixi Town, and Andy has a better way.
When Andy was passing by the digital store on the second floor just now, he saw many cameras placed on the counter. When Clyde finished working on the fire station, he asked him to take over and start. The fire station should be powered on today.
Yes, we can start installing cameras in the Morgan Building tomorrow at the latest.
Andy feels very tired these days. He feels that he has returned to the work rhythm of two movies a year.
Every day when he opens his eyes, there are a lot of things for him to deal with, and most of them are childish, ridiculous and boring disputes.
Andy reached out and rubbed his swollen forehead.
Get to work.
Today I have to go to a place outside the commercial street to collect scrapped cars and build a wall.
Andy likes to do physical work very much. When doing physical work, you don’t need to use your brain, which is very relaxing.
Lily is sorting out Iger’s speech records, and there will be big news in today’s episode.
What she didn't know was that this radio program would have a major impact on all survivor teams. The survivor teams gradually divided into two camps, the solid wall fortress faction and the mobile wandering faction.
…
Field team.
I saw a group of infected people far away on the road in the distance. I heard Ryan say that this is the only way to go.
After Egger took out his telescope and observed it, he discussed with several team members that he would not waste time on shooting today. The easiest way at present is to drive off the roadbed and go around on the grass next to it.
Groups of infected people occupied the roads, but cars did not have to take the highway.
Afterwards, everyone got back in the car and found a place with gentle terrain. Lane drove down the roadbed, and then the two cars bumped on the grass.
As Iger was playing on the trampoline in the pickup truck, he had a sense of déjà vu in his mind. Why did this scene feel like it had happened before?
Although the sense of déjà vu passed by in an instant, Egger slowly recalled the feeling of familiarity, but he just couldn't remember why he had this sense of déjà vu.
After the car drove around the group of infected people for a while, it finally found a gentle slope and returned to the road.
After driving forward for a while, Ryan's car stopped again. After everyone got out of the car, they saw dead bodies scattered on the road ahead.
At this time, Iger finally remembered, isn't this the place we visited yesterday?
