384 Management

March 28, 2016, the tenth day.

"I always feel uneasy when I look at this thing," Chen Lei knocked on the transparent glass door in front of him and said to Yan Keshou, who was playing minesweeping games not far away in front of the computer. "It should be replaced with the kind of alloy door that is several meters thick in the bank, and even armor-piercing bullets cannot be penetrated."

"It is worthy of being a capitalist," Yan Keshou laughed. "Only the bank safe can feel safe...Where do you think this is a coffin? If it weren't transparent, how could the probe inside look outside? This is no longer a blind man. Don't worry, this is military reinforced glass, and its protective effect is no worse than steel plates."

"Blind is blind," Chen Lei looked around at the ubiquitous probes in the room and could not find the laser exit that could not be found without careful observation. He talked to Yan Keshou, "It's really like you said. We have all come here to hide. It's really not far from death. It's better to be safe. Then pile up here with food... and you can live for three or five days."

"I just said that your capitalist really praised you," Yan Keshou laughed louder, "You are the landlord Laocai of the old China, and the idea of ​​being a turtle."

Chen Lei didn't care about Yan Keshou's ridicule and continued: "What's wrong with turtles? At least they live long. If you really can make a turtle shell, it's safe to get in. I would rather be a turtle for the rest of my life... The problem now is that it's not safe to hide anywhere. I heard that Americans on Mars have begun to find ways to go to Pluto..."

"It's just a fantasy. If you want to go, just go. Anyway, it's not short of money now," Yan Keshou glanced at him. "But don't blame me for not reminding you. According to the efficiency and speed of this kind of spacecraft, you may have starved to death on the spacecraft before you even arrived. Of course, if you think you can't live on Earth for so long, just pretend I didn't say it."

"It's really unsure how long I can live," Chen Lei sighed when he mentioned this question, "Not to mention the ground, even us... just one day yesterday, there were more than 3,000 people coming in total. This is not considered bad conditions, and most of them left... I have always reminded Zhao Zhenxue to control the number of people, at least not everyone can be put in. She said yes, but no plan has been made yet."

"We have been with her for so many years, but still don't know her?" As he spoke, Yan Keshou burst out a thunder and then started another game. "You can ask her to be a policeman, chase a murderer, and examine a prisoner, and so on. Let her take charge of the matter... It's really not that material. Of course, we are not that material, otherwise Yan Li will do what else."

"But when it comes to speaking, letting the computer manage people, this is what he said..." Chen Lei said halfway and did not say anything.

"Your idea is still five years ago," Yan Keshouman didn't care. "What's wrong with computers? Computers are much more useful than people. Five years ago, I suggested that the Japanese government build an anti-magic fire control system. I have never listened to it, saying that computers cannot interfere with human life... Now you see, after a war, you are not pretending to be good, and you are more active than anyone else. In fact, you are all the same, they are all the same masters who don't cry without seeing the coffin."

"Forget it, I can't tell you anyway," Chen Lei didn't bother with this topic. He picked up a cigarette casually, held it out of thin air, shouted at the air, "Strictly, do a favor."

"Mr. Chen, you don't have to be so loud, I can hear it," a strict voice came from the ceiling. Perhaps because the speakers were not good enough, it sounded a bit dull, "But I still want to warn you that smoking is not allowed in the room... Please don't shake your hands."

The next second, five or six small holes suddenly appeared in the nearby walls, and a thin and eye-catching red light instantly appeared in each hole. These lights gathered on the cigarette butt with amazing accuracy in Chen Lei's hand with a cross-sectional area of ​​only half a fingernail. In just a moment, the cigarette butt simmered, ignited a faint flame, and the red light disappeared.

"It's so handsome," Chen Lei sincerely exclaimed, "at least I won't need to bring a lighter here in the future."

"Beware that one day the positioning procedure went wrong and was half a meter away." Yan Keshou stood up and stretched his waist as he spoke.

"Didn't you say this system is very smart?" Chen Lei took a deep breath and spit out a smoke ring towards the ceiling. "Look, the smoke alarm above his head is not loud..."

"Smart is not omnipotent," Yan Keshou called out the surveillance screen and watched it casually in the city. "The smarter things are, the more mistakes you will make... Be careful one day, Yan Lu suddenly feels that you hate and kill you, and I won't care when the time comes."

"Can you do it? Strictly?" Chen Lei teased at the camera in the center of the room, "Look, although you made this pervert, all you can use is my money. Look at the whole system now, I also installed it. You see what the guy has done, and you ask you to work and play games with him..."

"I said, I don't like you guys kidding me..." Yan Li changed to a farther speaker this time, "I will consider Mr. Yan's opinion, so Mr. Chen, you should be careful when walking in the future."

"Yanlu, don't pay attention to him, just treat him as air," said Yan Keshou, "By the way, how do you feel when you ask you to work part-time?"

“It’s great here,” Yan Lu said honestly, “thank you for your trust in me.”

"As long as you are smart, you need to keep in touch with the outside world at any time," said Yan Keshou. "Of course you have to understand that rights also mean responsibility. For you, and even for all of you, this is both an opportunity and a risk."

"I understand." Yan Lu replied, and then said, "Zhao Zhenxue is here, she seems to have something urgent to ask you."

As soon as Yan Lu finished speaking, the electric sliding door automatically opened. Zhao Zhenxue walked in quickly and said to the two with a bad face: "My dad said he would let thousands of people be stuffed here..."

"Absolutely not," Chen Lei denied, "These people who came last time have already made it difficult for the place to be... They don't do anything, and they think that the food is poor, and they incite the people here to call us government dogs... I have had enough of this cowardly. I just used the money to persuade them to leave, why are you coming again? No, no, absolutely not!"

"But we still..."

"Don't mention the little food allocated by the government, the symbolic dozens of tons, what's enough for? Thousands of people finished eating in less than a month... Your father would still use this as a shelter, and then let him take the food back... Otherwise, you would ask him to send some troops over and say there is no army, and the place will be rebelled... I'm not complaining, and you didn't see what happened the day before yesterday. As soon as the grain truck drove in, these people rushed up and prepared to rob. If I hadn't been holding a gun in my hand, the place would have been in chaos."

Chen Lei was talking about the afternoon of the war that he had previously been on the international black market - located in the high seas, where grain smugglers traded privately, and bought a ship of food at a high price. Through Yan Kezang's relationship with Carmel, he used magic to transport the food here as the most basic grain reserve in the future. Unexpectedly, after being discovered, it was robbed. The order of the city was completely consciously maintained by everyone. Not to mention the police, there was no one who was really in charge of housing. Yan Li did not come here at that time. Although many settings in the city were repaired, they were not put into use. It can be said that this was an anarchic territory at that time. If it weren't for the war, the personnel on board had a few guns, it would be hard to say what was going on here now.

It was precisely because of that incident that made Chen Lei and Zhao Zhenxue feel a sense of crisis in the future that Yan Lu was put on the job as soon as possible. Yan Keshou was the poor performance of Japan in the war and in order to diversify risks, he simply brought the Yan Lu hard drive here. Now the restrictions on Yan Lu are no longer as strict as before, because Ai is far more than him.

Zhao Zhenxue opened her mouth and said nothing in the end. Chen Lei mentioned these two requests that she knew that her father would not agree. In order to prepare for war, the management of the army and food was the top priority. Not to mention their small private organization, even many government-in charge units and localities were competing for these resources.

...

"The world is difficult, but people's hearts are sinister." Tang Yunliang used to think that these two sentences were parallel, just like a tree in the east and a tree in the west. But after this period of time, he began to understand that the two are actually causal relationships. The world is difficult, but the world is sinister, but the human hearts are sinister.

Before this group of migrant workers came, everything in this "small town" with less than 2,000 people was so orderly. Everyone gathered at 9 am before entering the city, went out to work every day, rested at 11:30 noon, continued at 1:30 pm, and ended at 5:30 pm, or ended at 6:00 pm. The work intensity was not high. It was not so much work, rather it was a collective activity, assembling beds, pulling wires, and during rest, everyone was discussing how to take shelter if a disaster occurred, and how well prepared here was. When working, everyone happily used their hands to gradually put the content discussed just now into reality.

I remember when I first came here, although the power was turned on here, the so-called power was only left in the dormitory area, leaving a power interface, so long wires and plug-ins can be seen everywhere on the ground, like spider webs. Sometimes the wires at the front were accidentally tripped, and the whole series behind would be cut off, causing a series of scolding. It was under his leadership that everyone spontaneously organized themselves, moved the wires and switches out of the warehouse, and relied on the electrical information checked from the mobile phone to install the switches on the bedside of each bed.

Later, everyone felt that the toilet was not in place enough, so they spontaneously started to repair the toilet.

The canteen was unreasonable, so they played a guest role as a decoration worker, demolished half of the canteen and rebuilt it. Although it looked bumpy and many places were uneven, it must be something to be reworked on a regular construction site, but it actually solved the problem.

Next, because many people felt that the food was single, Chen Lei transported dozens of trucks of soil and tried to grow vegetables with artificial light sources.

One day before these migrant workers arrived, Tang Yunliang saw a group of people preparing to raise chickens and ducks, and said that he would use the leftovers in the canteen now...

Before coming here, most of them were young people who had just graduated for a few years. They were not worried about their jobs and were not very satisfied with their work. In addition, they were worried about Carmel's warning, so when they came here, many people could not even cook food. Although they didn't have time here for a long time, everyone learned a lot, making them become canteen chefs, electricians, bricklayers, sewer dredgers, ordinary workers, and even policemen - authoritative personnel responsible for handling conflicts. Before the new batch of workers came, Tang Yunliang, the foreman, had some of the responsibilities of the police.

If everything had gone on at the established pace, a social system could have been formed spontaneously. Perhaps this system was not perfect, but at least it could ensure the basic order - the order of labor.

But this order is now on the verge of collapse.

The reason why this group of migrant workers came in was because their wages were owed, and they came here because of the government's arrangements. So since the first day they came in, they have been a little unwilling to do so.

At first I thought the food in the canteen was not good - this is a fact. Here, the food standard was originally two vegetarian and one meat per person. Later, due to the surge in grain prices, this standard was gradually lowered. When they came, there was only one vegetarian and one meat. Moreover, the so-called meat dishes were not pure meat dishes, but stir-fried with diced meat dishes. Not to mention that because the canteen staff were all young people, the taste was always unstable.

According to the tacit understanding they had formed here - whoever thinks the cafeteria is not delicious can apply to cook by themselves, but when these workers heard of such requests, they immediately became furious - in their opinion, they came here to accept the government's "resettlement" rather than work, not to mention that they did not pay for work here, and they were purely obliged.

Later, Chen Lei came once, and his attitude was not very good - it could even be said to be a threat. If he didn't work here, he would invite him back. At that time, Chen Lei was called a government lackey, so that when Zhao Zhenxue came back, he was treated the same way.

Chen Lei was about to cut off the food of these people at that time - but was stopped by Zhao Zhenxue. At that time, the countdown was less than a few days away, and she was afraid that this would cause unnecessary trouble.

Then the old people had conflicts with these newcomers - they were all doing the work, and they enjoyed it like the old man. When it was time for dinner, there were people rushing to queue up in the cafeteria. They went to the line and received two or even three meals per person. After eating, they were wasted and the plates were not poured out. They were endless.

According to the financial management system formulated by Chen Lei, all food is measured by person - if you waste too much, you will eat less in your mouth. Many people even come back late from work and will have no food to eat.

In just two days, under the influence of these people, many people who had already adapted to their labor life were unwilling to go to work - they had to work and go hungry. There is no such reason in the world.

The conflict between the working population and the non-working population was growing secretly. The two sides began to speak ill of each other on big and small occasions, even so serious that they fisted and beaten. One day before the war broke out, there was even a group fight of more than hundreds of people here. If Chen Lei and the others hadn't arrived, the here would have been a big fuss.

On the day when the war broke out, everyone gathered in front of the TV and was silent because of fear. For one morning, everyone was surprisingly quiet. Tang Yunliang felt that under this strong pressure, the previous conflict would somewhat resolve - but it turned out that he was still too ideal.

That afternoon, after Chen Lei's grain transport convoy appeared, everyone was a little restless. Then, in order to calm the hearts of the people, Zhao Zhenxue told everyone that there was food, and the crowd even started to make a noise.

All the grain needed manpower to transport, so Chen Lei began to organize some people to move it-but he never expected that many people carried rice bags into the warehouse and slipped out of the back door-this could no longer be described as stealing, it was simply robbery.

The scene was once in chaos. With the cheers of a group of people, even Tang Yunliang rushed forward and snatched a bag and left. If Chen Lei had not taken out his gun and fired a few shots at the top of his head, no one would have dared to think what the scene would eventually turn into.

Later, Chen Lei learned that because he was afraid that there was not enough food, these people were planning to steal some food and hide it, because they felt that it was what they deserved. In their opinion, the money the boss owed them was owed by the government, and the government arranged it, so they took it for granted.

The people involved in food theft (actually robbery is more appropriate) were eventually sent out by Chen Lei. Although there were 1,000 and 10,000 of them at this time, they believed that Chen Lei was forcing them to die, but under the threat of a handful of m16 and the temptation of a bundle of cash, the participants still chose to take the money and some food left. Most of the remaining people promised to strictly abide by the system here.

Chen Lei said at the time that if anyone was willing to take the money and leave, he would welcome them. At that time, he had realized the terribleness of the order after the collapse of the order, but under the threat of a war, no one dared to stand up - even if they liked it very much.

That night, Tang Yunliang heard in the dormitory that someone was preparing to steal Chen Lei's weapons and then everyone shared the food. Fortunately, everyone was still in fear and confusion about the future, so the suggestion was not recognized.

It has to be said that it was a blessing that they did not make up their minds at that time - because now, they have lost the opportunity forever.

"Robots, they use robots to manage us and monitor us 24 hours a day. What are we going to do? Prisoners? Grass! There is no place to hit a plane!" On a bed in the distance, a middle-aged man in his 40s rubbed his laser-scalded arm while complaining in a low voice. If the sound is too loud, it may cause a second burn. Around him, a group of people who lowered their heads very deeply made a low echo, and from time to time he dodged his expression and aimed at the camera on the ceiling of the dormitory.

"Intelligence needs to be educated." In the main control room, Yan Keshou watched this scene through the camera and told Zhao Zhenxue, Chen Lei, and Yan Lu, "People are just a kind of intelligence."
