Chapter 1373: Cultivate a vest to radiate the south!
Before Tianyuan reaches a million-level scale and completely rebuilds Qinggang City, the mining island in the southern fire domain is destined to be an area that needs to focus on defense and low-key development for a long time to come.
Therefore, it is unlikely that there will be too much credit here, there will only be endless hard work.
If you directly assign those ambitious guys from the territory, it will be equivalent to sending people to the frontier.
Even Chen Shen, a hardworking and hard-working man, would not be willing to come here to "goof around".
Therefore, choosing a capable person from the local area to manage it is actually the best choice.
However, Sun Guangmin, the only manager left after the Cha Cha Mining Island went through chaos, actually perfectly met all of Sumo's selection requirements, which even made him suspect that Hu Shulin was telling lies. Later, he found Spicy Iron Hammer for verification and was convinced that Sun Guangmin was
He is indeed such a rare talent.
First, Sun Guangmin has qualified management and development capabilities, but he does not have much ambition.
It can be clearly seen from the development history of Tiantie Island that he has always carefully controlled the pace of Tiantie Island's external expansion and maintained a steady internal accumulation and improvement of strength.
This is exactly in line with the future positioning of Mining Island, which is not to seek merit, but to seek no faults.
Second, Sun Guangmin is one of those rare managers who can recognize and openly admit his shortcomings.
Sumo was extremely surprised when he heard from Hu Shulin that there were managers who were not responsible for military affairs.
In the wasteland, force is often directly related to survival. Negligence in military affairs may lead to unpredictable consequences, such as defense loopholes, resource plunder, and even the destruction of the entire settlement.
However, Sun Guangmin was willing to hand over this part to outsiders and successfully led Tiantie Island to a relatively stable development path, which had to make Sumo look at him with admiration.
Third, Sun Guangmin's attitude towards survivors is very special, which is also one of Sumo's most valued advantages.
As the wasteland environment becomes more stable, local gathering areas will gradually enter a stage of peaceful development.
At this stage, internal stability is far more important than external threats.
Sun Guangmin is admired and loved by the residents of Tiantie Island.
Otherwise, the evacuation of the crowd on the pier in the afternoon would not have been so smooth, which was in stark contrast to the survivors arriving from other islands one after another.
In a short period of time, Sumo decided to observe Sun Guangmin's performance for a period of time, but the premise was that Tianyuan needed to take over the defense of the mining island.
However, I believe Sun Guangmin will not have any objections, after all, he has chosen to delegate power before.
"In fact, everyone has advantages and disadvantages. There is never a perfect person in this world. And my criteria for selecting people have always been comprehensive abilities. Since you can be recognized by me for this job, there is no need to belittle yourself.
If you are not capable enough, of course, if you have no confidence at all, I can also find someone else to come and arrange other work for you."
After a pause, Sumo continued to say with a smile.
"How about it, do you want to try it?"
Sun Guangmin swallowed.
It sounded like Soma gave him a choice of yes or no, but in fact there was only one option.
"I I have a question?"
"What?"
"If I continue to be the manager here, can I not use the name Tianyuan for a short time?"
Sun Guangmin gritted his teeth and said, Hu Shulin and others sitting behind him were all stunned.
"Tell me what you think." Sumo thought for a moment and showed encouraging eyes.
Sun Guangmin pondered for a moment and then spoke slowly: "If after we join Tianyuan, the mining island cannot get a lot of support to promote its development in the short term, then the best strategy is to keep a low profile as much as possible to reduce the influence of other forces.
Attention and suppression.”
"If in the eyes of other forces in the Southern Fire Territory, Mine Island is Tianyuan's Mine Island, then we are now Tianyuan's breakthrough point and weakness. Our current strength is far from enough to withstand such pressure. On the contrary, if Mine Island
In the eyes of the outside world, it is independent and an independent gathering place. Once we get the support of weapons and resources, we will quickly rise to become a strong gathering place in the southern fire region, with overwhelming advantages."
“And it’s so much more than that!”
As Sun Guangmin talked, the thoughts in his mind became more and more active.
"Maintaining an independent identity will not only help us avoid unnecessary risks, but also win us more initiative in external communications. We can put down our status and interact with other forces in the Southern Fire Territory to seek the most beneficial cooperation opportunities.
, instead of being bound by the limitations of identity. We can also use force to fight with surrounding forces without worrying about the impact of public opinion on you and Tianyuan."
"Maybe it won't take long for the mining island to develop into a gathering place for millions of people. After all, we still have many islands suitable for human habitation. At present, we just don't have the advantage to attract survivors to join. Once a cycle is formed, there will definitely be a large population.
With the addition of these people, our mining and smelting speed will be significantly improved. By then, the mining island will be able to continuously deliver large amounts of minerals to Tianyuan, and will no longer be a burden that requires constant support."
The clear explanation was a bit surprising. Not only did everyone in the conference room feel thirsty and couldn't help but applaud Sun Guangmin in their hearts, even Feng Long, who had been standing at the door, poked his head in to take a look.
I have to say that what Sun Guangmin described is very convincing.
Tianyuan's mining island and the independent mining island are indeed two different things in the eyes of outside survivors.
If it only receives funding from Tianyuan but remains independent from the outside world, then it will definitely be just around the corner to become a large force in the Southern Fire Territory.
However, unlike everyone who was persuaded, Sumo didn't react much, but still looked at Sun Guangmin intently.
"Any more?"
Sun Guangmin was stunned for a moment, and quickly realized what Sumo meant by "Is there anything else?"
What he wants to hear is not some empty ideals, but practical and feasible measures.
For example, it is no problem for the mining island to become independent, but how to ensure that no one leaks information during the process?
Even if we can ensure that everyone who currently knows the news is kept quiet, even if new people join in the future, no news will be disclosed to the outside world.
Is it possible to fabricate a transaction object out of thin air to deceive people when a large amount of materials come in and out?
Fortunately, Sun Guangmin had already thought about this issue secretly when he was sorting out the information on the mining island.
Now he was not frightened. He paused for a moment to think and then continued.
"Lord Su, would you mind using the Green River Territory to put on a play?"
"Green River Territory?"
It seems like a familiar name.
Sumo recalled it carefully, and then he remembered where he had heard this name after being reminded by Spicy Iron Hammer.
It turned out to be the smart-aleck territory in the Ten Thousand Paths War, but I didn’t expect to encounter it again?
"Very well, tell me your plan."
The negotiation between Tianyuan and Mining Island lasted for a full hour.
While all the survivors on the dock were still protesting, news like bolts from the blue came one after another.
I don’t know who shouted it out, and it immediately detonated the already lively scene.
"What, Wu Jiahao, a man who has killed a thousand swords, what qualifications does he have to refuse on behalf of our mining island?"
"Damn it, where is this guy? I'm going to kill him now!"
"And Encobat, who gave him the courage to open his mouth to the lion Su Shen?"
"Don't worry, there will be a second round of negotiations. Even if we can't join Tianyuan, we can still use minerals to buy a lot of good things from Tianyuan."
"What's the use? What we want is to join, not to trade!"
"Protest, we protest, these managers do not represent our ideas at all!"
After a chaos, there are currently only four managers left in the Mineral Island Alliance.
I heard that during the negotiation process, Sun Guangmin agreed, Hua Qingyun abstained due to treatment, and Wu Jiahao and Encobat actually voted against. After the two-to-one negotiation dragged into the second round, the survivors gathered at the dock almost exploded.
Are they crazy?
Given the opportunity to join Tianyuan, these two fools could actually vote against it with their feet?
Just when the crowd was rioting and wanted to attack Tiantie Island, directly eliminate Wu Jiahao and Ngcobat's humanitarianism, and cancel the two objection votes, Sun Guangmin hurriedly rushed out and quickly refuted the news.
"Everyone, you have all misunderstood. There is no objection!"
"We just exchanged opinions in private, but how can the manager's opinions be contrary to everyone's opinions? Even if someone wants to refuse, we have to forget it. Now that things have happened, I will tell the truth. It sank last night
Have you seen the two ships with your own eyes?"
"It was Wu Jiahao and Hua Qingyun who led the people to do it. These two bold guys actually attacked Tianyuan's ship for their own selfish purposes. If Su Shen hadn't happened to be inspecting the southern plate with the fleet in the afternoon, otherwise Tianyuan's fleet would have us
If we are regarded as an enemy, there is no problem in launching a direct covering strike against us."
As soon as the words fell, the angry crowd fell silent.
A group of people looked at each other, looking at each other for a while, and some didn't know what to say.
If Tianyuan's fleet visits the mining island, there is no problem if they riot and demand to join Tianyuan.
But now they took the initiative to attack Tianyuan's ships, and their main fleet came to investigate.
Based on the behavior of everyone on the pier, I don't know if they thought they were going to launch an attack.
"And based on the current development level of our Mine Island Alliance and the behaviors you are showing now, how do you qualify to join Tianyuan?"
Speaking of this, Sun Guangmin said with a helpless smile:
"Do you think that any force can join Tianyuan? Not to mention the selection criteria for forces with millions or tens of millions of people when they expand externally. Our mining island has various regulations when recruiting survivors. How come Tianyuan can
Are there no selection criteria?”
Forehead
The crowded crowd became even quieter, and everyone's face turned red as if their throats were being pinched.
Especially those who shouted the loudest at the beginning lowered their heads dejectedly and tried to shrink back from the crowd.
What Sun Guangmin said is not unreasonable. If every gathering place can easily join large forces and join Tianyuan, then how can there be all kinds of chaos and disputes in the New World?
To put it bluntly, they were on a mining island and usually didn't have a good look on those outside survivors.
Many people feel that the foreign survivors are not reliable at all. Not only did they fail to contribute to the early development of the mining island, but they also came to seize their resources and job opportunities after it developed.
Looking back now, they were blocking the pier and clamoring to join Tianyuan. They didn't make any contribution, but they made it clear that they wanted to enjoy the benefits of other people's development. How could this be agreed?
"Everyone, please go back quickly. There is still room for recovery before the next round of negotiations begins."
"If our Tiantie Island had not contacted Tianyuan's envoys in advance and left a good impression, and if the resources around the mining island still have a certain value, Tianyuan's fleet would have left long ago."
After saying that, Sun Guangmin turned and left, leaving only a slightly desolate figure under the firelight, which made people feel inexplicably sad.
This is also a portrayal of most gathering places in the wasteland. When facing large forces, there is no room for bargaining.
Soon, the crowd gathered on the pier began to disperse.
There was no need for the defense team to continue to maintain order during the evacuation. The only sound on the river was the sound of wind and water.
Even some people who were still coming from afar were spontaneously persuaded to leave by these people.
Nonsense, the hope of joining Tianyuan now is very slim.
If tens of thousands of people are allowed to gather around the dock and protest, then the outcome of the mining island can be announced in advance.
"This guy's acting skills are really good, he's a talent!"
Feng Long's eyes lit up as he looked out from a high place, as if he had gotten to know Sun Guangmin again.
First release a piece of false news to cause confusion among the crowd, and then put all the blame on several other managers.
Wait until the crowd's emotions are at their highest to appear and deliver a fatal blow, shifting the blame to these people themselves.
Now even if Tianyuan turns around and leaves, the survivors of Mine Island can't blame Sun Guangmin at all.
"Being able to secure a position as a manager without having military power requires some means."
Somo nodded slightly and looked towards the deep distance of the river.
If we can support a "vest" in the southern fire zone and radiate to the entire south, it will undoubtedly be the best result at the moment.
It is different from the roots of giant trees that were forced to migrate due to the expansion of the New World and whose value has been basically drained.
Mining Island not only has a large area of mineral resources, but also contains immeasurable potential development value.
The waterway and waterway transportation conditions here are unique, making it possible to transport production resources to the outside world easily and efficiently, and at the same time, continuously bring back a variety of commodities.
The unique geographical location of the southern plate gives this land unique agricultural advantages. Crops are harvested three times a year here, which not only provides sufficient food security for local residents, but also has the potential to become a reserve granary after future development.
The only trouble is that the complex and changeable terrain has caused the defense to be weak to a certain extent. Once a strong enemy is encountered, it will be difficult to organize effective resistance.
And this point can be perfectly solved after Tianyuan takes over.
