Chapter 13, second gold entry
"Meat sausage?"
Looking at Zhou Jiakun, who was full of doubt, Huang Feipeng had a mocking expression.
He still can't forget the scene from the first night after he transmigrated, when Wang Ce dragged him to the toilet in the middle of the night, calling a deer a horse and mistaking an "Oli Gei" for a meat sausage.
"That's right, you know about our hunting of giant wolves. We used their intestines to make a lot of sausages, and I can share some with you."
"But you have to do me a favor: take your men and spread a message in the south."
Zhou Jiakun's eyes lit up. Could he really get giant wolf meat just by talking?
He had heard that the animals in this world had firm flesh, and that eating them might be beneficial to their own evolution.
"What do you want me to say?"
Wang Ce pulled him aside and then lowered his voice, saying, "Just say that Shenghong Precision hunted down two giant wolves and found a blood-red crystal core in their brains."
"These crystal nuclei have a strong radiation infection effect and must never come into direct contact with the skin."
"However, these crystal cores can be incorporated into metals, making the forged weapons even harder."
"If anyone can obtain this crystal core, they can trade it with Shenghong Precision for food or weapons!"
Upon hearing this, Zhou Jiakun immediately led the property management staff south. This kind of talk-and-talk was something he excelled at.
He wouldn't have the guts to go out and fight wild beasts.
After Zhou Jiakun left, Huang Feipeng asked in confusion, "Brother Ce, as long as you hold the crystal core in your hand, you can absorb the energy inside. How could they not know something so simple?"
Zhang Luoyan replied calmly, "That's what happens when you're too involved to see clearly. Didn't you also study it for a long time before and come up with nothing?"
"Furthermore, Brother Ce explicitly told those people that anyone who came into contact with the crystal core would be infected by radiation. How many of them would dare to hold it in their hands for long?"
"As long as they don't hold it in their hands, they can't absorb the crystal core. In that case, these crystal cores are dangerous gems to them."
"We're the only machining factory in the park. In this situation, they'll most likely come here to exchange for weapons and equipment so they can go out hunting and gathering more effectively."
Wang Ce nodded. He knew that these people needed a certain amount of time to react, and that smart people would soon discover the clues. It was all about exploiting the information gap and the time gap.
"Let's go. Let's gather some people today and go check out the passage opened up by Fuhuakang in the south. Since they were able to rise so quickly, there must be something we can learn from them."
As soon as Wang Ce got into the passenger seat, the first thing he did was grab the window handle; he had been traumatized by Zhang Luoyan.
The Hummer was fully loaded this time, carrying four workers.
The two who went out with them before buckled up their seatbelts as soon as they got in the car, while the other two were confused and didn't understand why the back seats also needed to be buckled up.
There are no traffic police now, so it's completely unnecessary.
At the kind reminder from the two men, the other two men's expressions changed and they immediately fastened their seat belts.
"Buzz—"
Zhang Luoyan stepped on the gas and drove off, but this time she was much gentler. Although it was fast, she didn't drift.
Previously, we were facing a giant wolf, so to prevent any accidents, we were driving very fast.
Now that all three are evolved beings, they can fight giant wolves head-on, which shows their skill and courage.
"Hey, hey, hey, which factory are you from? This is a primeval forest outside, there's not even a road. Are you sure you want to drive there?"
At the south gate of the industrial park, fifty workers were gathered and guarding the area; judging from their uniforms, they were from the Fuhuakang Electronics Factory.
The weapons these people carried were a motley collection, but the most eye-catching item was a large net held by four people.
This structure doesn't resemble a cold weapon; it's not effective for slashing, stabbing, or striking. This is probably the key reason why Fuhuakang Electronics Factory was able to be the first to go global.
"We're from Shenghong Precision. We're going out to try our luck and see if we can make a profit."
Wang Ce rolled down the car window, and the people outside were stunned when they saw the weapons and equipment inside the car. They were especially taken a second look at Zhang Luoyan, who was in the driver's seat.
Zhang Luoyan is a classic Eastern beauty, possessing a striking bone structure that, combined with her aloof personality, makes her seem to belong to a different world from those around her.
"Oh, so you're the factory on the north side of the park where you drove your car into the giant wolf."
"There are no roads outside at all. If the car gets stuck, it might not be able to get back. But you have a Hummer, which is powerful. You can go out and take a look."
"If it's your first time going out, be careful. Besides wild beasts, there are plenty of snakes, rats, insects, and ants."
"Remember this: never go near the river. Many people have been eaten by the big fish in the river."
The people at Fuhuakang Electronics Factory were quite enthusiastic, but Zhang Luoyan, standing nearby, crouched down, her chest almost pressed against Wang Ce's thigh, and leaned forward to ask:
"Will they charge us import/export taxes or something when we come in?"
"If there are any tricks involved, it's best to tell us in advance."
Wang Ce and the others in the back row all twitched their lips. As expected of capitalists, they hadn't thought of this factor.
"No, no, our factory manager said that there might be some later, because we need to send people to maintain it, so we will take a portion of the profits."
"But now that everyone is struggling to survive, there's no need for all this. Many struggling factories can even choose to merge with us, and their benefits and treatment will be the same as our own employees."
"Those with special abilities or resources will also receive preferential treatment."
Wang Ce nodded slightly. As expected of a large company, their thinking was clear, their response speed was fast, and their management system was sound.
In comparison, their movements were indeed slower.
"Hey bro, here's a bag of candy as a thank you for your explanation earlier."
Wang Ce took out a Swiss gummy and tossed it to the person who had just warned them. It wasn't that he was being generous, but rather that intelligence could often prevent a lot of trouble.
"Thanks, brother. One more thing, don't eat out just anything. Several people got sick yesterday."
This guy is over thirty, yet he calls himself "brother." These days, whoever has the food is your father.
Amidst envious glances from the crowd, Zhang Luoyan drove away from the park. There weren't many SUVs in the park, so this was quite a large vehicle.
"Brother Ce, should we do the same thing in the north? There are fewer factories in the south, but each factory has a lot of people, so we can quickly bring them together."
"In our northern industrial park, there are many factories but few people, and everyone is working independently, which slows down our response speed."
"If we did that too, it could develop very quickly."
Seeing how successful the Fuhuakang Electronics Processing Plant's business model was in the south, Huang Feipeng wanted to replicate it.
Wang Ce shook his head and said, "We cannot replicate Fuhuakang's successful model. The most fundamental point is that they have people. The total number of people who have traversed the park is only two thousand, and their factory alone accounts for five hundred of them."
"With a solid foundation, both the rules and regulations and the management system are very comprehensive."
"If we rapidly expand our workforce, the grassroots cadres will mostly be from other factories, and they will likely be more inclined to follow orders than directives. Once there is a conflict of interest, it could easily lead to a collapse."
"At least at this stage, we should not waste our energy on personnel management and power building."
"Our primary goal is to become stronger. Once we're stronger, we can then expand our influence. The core purpose of expanding our influence is to concentrate our superior resources to ensure our continued growth!"
It must be admitted that after spending two days with Zhang Luoyan, Wang Ce has also become a bit of a capitalist.
Zhang Luoyan nodded and parked the Hummer at the foot of a small hill. There were too many trees on it to drive up.
"We can't gather people like Fuhuakang Electronics Processing Plant. The only way for us to break the deadlock is to set rules."
"For example, if we establish a cultivation realm or give certain items a special name, once these names are promoted, we can, to a considerable extent, package ourselves as authorities and indirectly control public opinion and the power to set rules."
The seven men jumped out of the Hummer, their full metal gear making them quite eye-catching and immediately attracting a lot of attention.
Especially Zhang Luoyan, although she has been in the time travel for several days, there are still few women who dare to go out.
There are few women in the park to begin with, and they have many ways to get food. Being so beautiful and still venturing out like this makes them stand out from the crowd.
"The primeval forest to the south is vast, and the Fuhuakang Electronics Processing Plant is just a short distance away from the main station. They have opened up a channel that leads vertically into the river."
"This route is probably the safest and has the most participants; similarly, the rewards from this route will gradually decrease."
"Our goal today is to scout ahead, then go back and prepare for hunting in other directions tomorrow."
Wang Ce analyzed his tactical approach, and neither Zhang Luoyan nor Huang Feipeng had anything to say about it.
Zhang Luoyan looked at Wang Ce and Huang Feipeng with some curiosity. She couldn't figure out how these two, one as steady as an old dog and the other as reckless as a calf, had gotten along.
Outside the forest on the south side of the park, there were people everywhere, mostly gathered in small groups, with very few lone wolves.
"It seems like older people are quite popular; almost every team brings one. This doesn't make sense. Older people aren't physically strong, so why are they so popular?"
Huang Feipeng expressed his incomprehension, arguing that in extreme environments, the elderly and children should be the first to be screened out and eliminated.
As a result, many elderly people in the woods became quite popular.
"Young people these days can't even tell the difference between rice and wheat. Even if you put edible vegetables in front of them, they might not recognize them."
"Just now at the park gate, didn't the workers from Fuhuakang remind us that several people got sick from eating there yesterday?"
"Therefore, at this time, these middle-aged and elderly people with experience in rural labor have a bargaining chip for survival because of their knowledge reserves."
Wang Ce's words made Huang Feipeng realize something.
Their group of seven stood out from the rest of the forest. While everyone else was searching for food, they were the only ones looking around, making them quite conspicuous in the crowd.
Suddenly, Wang Ce's gaze locked onto the feet of a young man.
"It's a gold-level entry, the second gold-level entry!"
