Sometimes it's easier to get things done when there are more people.
Zhou Qingfeng opened the Ruili-Muse border in early March, recruited a large number of workers with the help of the local government, and used IL-76 to transport dozens of construction machinery and a large amount of logistics supplies.
Under normal circumstances, it would be fast to complete these complex tasks within three months, but it only took three days for 'Holy Light' to rely on good scheduling. After Lu Xun arrived, he straightened out the management chain and everything began to advance simultaneously.
Ruili hired more than 2,000 people, and Muse hired 500. All the people were organized into more than a dozen engineering teams. People from Harmony Construction were sent to guide and start building roads - labor cooperation can cultivate discipline, and it can also be used
to screen the backbone.
Zhou Qingfeng originally wanted to complete the training of "technical personnel" in three months, which was a bit taken for granted. Lu Xun unceremoniously rejected the president's arbitrary order. He expanded and detailed the plan, and extended the entire project time.
After Zhou Qingfeng saw Lu Xun's overall plan, he didn't say anything, let the experts do it, and rewarded him with 100,000 yuan - the CEO's Major Error Award, which is rare.
Lu Xun used the 100,000 yuan to reward the team and boost morale.
In addition to building roads and building houses, Lu Xun also arranged for more than ten "assistance teams", with local Chinese as guides, to explore in depth around Muse. Their job was to go door-to-door with gifts to greet people and find out the surrounding areas.
geographical and social conditions.
All the 'rescue teams' are under the unified command of Eileen and assisted by seven goblins. Each team has about ten people and five motorized tricycles, carrying radios and walkie-talkies, and goes deep into remote villages within a fifty-kilometer radius around Muse.
The gifts the team brings are industrial products such as rice, clothes and VCDs, and the team doctors provide simple medical services. These are old-fashioned tricks of Western NGOs, but they have always been very effective.
Eileen will enter the mountains today to go to a relatively large village. The village is called Mengxi, and there are two to three hundred households living in it. The dirt roads between the mountains are very narrow, and they rely on high-power motorized tricycles to move forward slowly.
The Chinese guide who was traveling with him was full of praise for the tricycle, "This is a great car. It can haul so many people and goods, and it can also run on such a bad road. It would be great if it could be sold to us."
"This car is for sale." Irene was the only woman in the team. She sat in the rickety tricycle and admired the scenery of the mountains with her feet up.
Although she looks beautiful and graceful and is not good at fighting, as a level 13 tree spirit druid, anyone who dares to underestimate her will be in serious trouble.
The trees, birds and animals in the mountains are all allies of Irene. As the mountain wind blows, the taller the trees, the more they keep shouting and rustling in joy to her.
The guide was a dark, thin middle-aged man who was doing business in Muse Town. His rough palms kept rubbing the frame of the tricycle and asked in a low voice: "How much does this tricycle cost?"
The thin, dark, middle-aged man is originally from Yunnan. He relies on mules and horses to carry out his daily business, and can only carry one to two hundred kilograms of goods each time he goes out. He is familiar with the villages around Muse, but he bluntly said that doing business here is very difficult.
"If it's not too expensive, I'd like to buy one."
"One thousand two hundred yuan a car."
"Only one thousand and two?"
The thin middle-aged man made some calculations and found that he could definitely bear it. On weekdays, he purchased agricultural products from Myanmar and shipped them to Ruili for sale, and then purchased salt, sugar, tools, medicines, etc. from Ruili and returned.
If you can have a tricycle and pull more goods at a fast speed, you can make several times the money. 'Holy Light' can provide more and better goods and services, which is why the black and thin middle-aged man is willing to act as a guide.
Irene didn't pay attention to the move of the dark and thin middle-aged man. The Myanmar side still didn't know how big a group the 'Holy Light' was, and what followed was a flood of goods being dumped.
Not only industrial products, but also local agricultural products will be destroyed. The small-scale peasant economy cannot withstand the invasion of industrial civilization. If you want to survive, you must be obedient.
Local drug traffickers will be defeated inexplicably, and they will not understand how they were eliminated until they die.
Erin's team walked for a day on a straight line of 60 kilometers in the dense tropical forest. There were no dangers on the way, and they successfully arrived at Mengxi, a small village hidden deep in the forest.
The most conspicuous thing in the village is the large farmland and several Buddhist temples next to the village.
"This place should be considered a small town. There are more people and buildings than expected." Eileen ordered the convoy to stop at the entrance of the village, got out of the car and walked towards a forest outside the village.
Two or three villagers armed with firearms stood out in the grass in the woods. The appearance of the convoy made them very excited, and they kept shouting. The dozen or so people in the convoy were also very nervous. The tricycles were equipped with heavy machine guns, and they were not unarmed.
The black and thin guide raised his hands in the air, trying to explain his purpose. But the excited villagers stopped talking and continued to yell and curse. Their guns were pointed at Eileen, who was approaching step by step, but they could not see the vines behind them slowly growing.
Tangle their legs.
Irene also raised her hands high and showed her charm with a smile. She shouted in Burmese: "We are here to do business, not to attack you. Looking at my face, do I look like a bad person?"
Eileen's face is extremely beautiful, and no man can resist her smile. Anyone who looks at her will immediately put down their guard and guard, and turn enemies into friends. This ability can be used in negotiations, and it will never go unfavorable.
Within a few seconds, the gun-wielding villagers on sentry duty in the woods calmed down and even felt embarrassed about their nervousness. Irene continued to smile and said, "I want to see the leader of your village."
One of the gun-wielding villagers nodded and chirped a few words to his companions.
The dark and skinny guide breathed a sigh of relief, turned around and whispered: "Miss Eileen, this is the first time I have seen the people here so talkative. When they see outsiders, they usually either curse and expel them or shoot in the air."
The vines that had gathered momentum had already been released, and the two gun-wielding villagers quickly ran towards the village. Irene also smiled at the guide's praise, making people feel that she was as trustworthy as an angel.
Ten minutes later, hundreds of armed men poured out of the village, surrounding the village leaders. They were all wearing dirty old clothes, and the weapons they held in their hands were various and rusty.
Although there are many people in the village, the villagers have no advantage over the convoy because the equipment is too far behind.
The leader of the village was elderly. He was wearing local ethnic costumes. He was a little hunched over, but his eyes were sharp. After looking at Irene for a few times, he calmed down and whispered: "Girl, which family do you belong to?"
"We are from the Holy Light Group, don't worry, we are really here to do business," Eileen said.
After looking at the sophisticated equipment of the convoy, the village leader was very knowledgeable. He pointed at the tricycle and asked, "Do you want to sell this vehicle and the heavy machine gun on it?"
"Of course." Irene agreed happily. "The cars are very cheap. They only cost 1,200 RMB. If you buy ten of them at one time, you can get free shipping. Heavy machine guns are more expensive, and we only sell them to friends."
It was surprising that he was willing to sell, and it was normal to have some conditions. The village leader thought that he had no strength to resist, so he got out of the way and extended his hand to invite: "You are very strong, we can't defeat you. Please come to our village as a guest."
