The management method of Tianshu City is very different from that of Haiya City.
As an important commercial and trade town, there are almost no procedures for ordinary people to enter and exit Haiya City. In contrast, Tianshu City has a strict entry and exit management system. Mortals who want to enter and exit the city have already lined up in a long line outside the city gate.
Before entering the city, Yang Lu could already feel the difference in management styles between the two cities.
According to Chen Ping's introduction, the Shanying Sect attaches great importance to the institutionalization and standardization of sect management.
Unlike Haiya City, which is full of the free atmosphere of cultivation capitalism, Tianshu City managed by the Shanying Sect is closer to the cultivation sects described in the Earth Internet novels. Both administrative management power and sect management power are concentrated at the top.
The top leaders of the sect have extended their rule to the grassroots through strict internal control systems, firmly controlling all aspects of Tianshu City.
As dignified cultivators, Yang Lu and Chen Ping naturally did not need to squeeze together with ordinary people. Instead, they walked outside the gate of another small city that looked very deserted and handed their name cards to the staff on duty outside the city gate.
.
This officer on duty is completely covered in jet-black armor from head to toe, complete with helmet, armor, boots, wrist guards, and leg guards. The breastplate is also engraved with a golden soaring eagle representing the Mountain Eagle Sect, which looks very eye-catching.
At his waist is a three-foot-long golden flying sword.
This golden flying sword looked very familiar to Yang Lu. He had personally found a flying sword of the same style from the corpse of Heyuge killer Li Wen. This was obviously also a standard flying sword of the Mountain Eagle Sect made of black iron ore.
sword.
Since this person can be responsible for verifying the identity of monks entering the city, he is naturally also an official disciple of the Mountain Eagle Sect.
Similar to the standard black iron flying sword, his whole body armor is also made of black iron, which is by no means as vulnerable as ordinary iron. According to Chen Ping, making such black iron armor requires hundreds of kilograms of high-grade materials.
Black iron ore can be made by removing its residue, extracting its essence, and then tempering it with metallic spiritual energy for seven days and seven nights.
Wearing such a set of black iron armor with strong defensive power, it has extremely high resistance to most spell attacks. Even a rookie like Yang Lu in the early stage of Qi refining is enough to face a monk in the middle stage of Qi refining head-on without losing.
.
However, ordinary monks in the Qi Refining Stage will not use this kind of black iron armor. Although the defensive power of black iron armor is terrifying, it will seriously affect the mobility of cultivators and is only suitable for such city guards to wear.
Yang Lu just looked at the armor casually and didn't feel much special about it.
He is now a rich man with a huge check of 100,000 yuan in spiritual stone coins. Even if he cannot afford a magical weapon of the same level as Li Qingning, there is no way he can make do with such stupid, big and thick mass-produced equipment.
The Shanying Sect monk on duty carefully registered the information of the two people, then handed each of them a wooden identity plate, and patiently explained: "Two fellow Taoists from the Jindao Sect, during the Immortal Fate Meeting, the number of cultivators in Tianshu City was very large.
Many, strict identity registration is not only a requirement of our sect's internal control process. It is also for the safety of all fellow Taoists. If you encounter unexpected dangers, you only need to use your spiritual energy to crush this identity card, and our sect's law enforcement hall will be established.
Seniors from the base period are here to help!”
If it were a cultivator from the Haiya sect who came to visit, the monks from the Shanying sect would definitely not be so polite.
The Haiya sect and the Shanying sect have never dealt with each other. The Duzhitang behind the Haiya sect and the Gongdetang behind the Shanying sect are at odds with each other over the issue of the reform of the social security system for cultivation.
According to rumors from Roadside Society, Chen Ming, the head of the Shanying Sect, is secretly planning to cooperate with Fang Jiancai, the deacon of Gongde Hall, to pilot a new generation of cultivation social security system in Tianshu City.
This kind of pilot behavior of killing first and reporting later has further aggravated the tension between the two sects.
In contrast, the Golden Blade Sect is not only one of the top ten famous sects in Zhongzhou, but also has always adhered to neutrality. Therefore, after the two revealed their identities, the attitude of the monks from the Mountain Eagle Sect on duty also appeared to be much more attentive. If Chen Ping had not handed over
Famous post, he thought they were both new immortal seekers who had just joined the Haiya Sect!
After casually accepting the identity card handed over by the monk from the Mountain Eagle Sect, the two of them successfully entered the interior of Tianshu City.
Compared with the architectural style of Haiya City with cornices and brackets and a hundred flowers blooming, the architectural style of Tianshu City looks more uniform, and the shapes and colors seem to be carved from the same mold.
Not only that, unlike Haiya City, which has a large number of lively shops along the streets, there are almost no small traders and hawkers in the outer city of Tianshu City. Even though the total population of Tianshu City is no less than that of Haiya City, the number of pedestrians walking on the streets of Tianshu City
The number is obviously much less than that of Haiya City.
Noticing Yang Lu's looking around, Chen Ping explained with a smile: "You are used to the life in Haiya City. You will definitely be a little uncomfortable when you come to Tianshu City for the first time. When the Mountain Eagle Faction manages the city, it emphasizes order.
Importance. Ordinary mortals who want to open a shop need to apply for approval according to the process. If they want to enter or leave the city, they need to register according to the process. Even if they change jobs, they need to report to the main office of Tianshu City. Unlike Haiya City, there is no law and no prohibition.
Because, this outer city where mortals live looks a bit dull."
Looking at the slightly depressed streets of Tianshu City, Yang Lu nodded thoughtfully.
From the perspective of managers, the management concepts of Tianshu City and Haiya City are not actually superior or inferior. Instead, they make differentiated trade-offs in different aspects, which is somewhat similar to the relationship between planned economy and market economy.
The essence of market economy is similar to machine learning.
Producers first set prices for their products, and then get feedback (sales volume) from consumers. Then based on this feedback, producers adjust production strategies and price strategies to meet consumer needs.
In fact, online article authors adjust their writing plans through monthly tickets and subscription numbers, which is the same feedback logic. If the results are poor, they will be eunuchs. If the results are good, they will continue writing. This is the most typical market economy logic.
Of course, the market economy also has its weaknesses. For example, after online article authors’ subscriptions drop, it is often difficult to judge whether it is a temporary drop or a permanent drop, which can easily lead to misjudgment. Therefore, the efficiency and accuracy of this feedback model are actually not very good.
high.
Although the planned economy is more efficient, it lacks this information feedback mechanism between consumers and producers, because after losing the price signal, it is difficult for individuals to express "what I really want" through other means.
It is obviously not possible to say it with your mouth, because there is no cost in saying it. Everyone will say that I want to live in a villa and eat steak. In game theory, this kind of information that does not require cost is invalid information that cannot be accepted.
Therefore, under a highly planned management model, managers must have extremely strong management capabilities, accurately judge the needs of others, and maximize strengths and avoid weaknesses as much as possible in order to take advantage of the high efficiency of the planned economy.
Because of this characteristic, the smaller the overall size of the organization, the more suitable it is for planned management.
Almost all enterprises have planned management within them. Even the Qingning Chamber of Commerce under the governance of Yang Lu is a typical planned economy. However, as the scale of enterprises becomes larger and larger, the problems of planned management become more and more prominent.
When the scale of an enterprise is so large that it is difficult for managers to accurately grasp the needs of all employees, the losses caused by internal management will exceed the efficiency improvements brought by planned management. This is a big enterprise disease.
As managers of a city with a population of nearly one million, the Mountain Eagle Sect and the Haiya Sect obviously made different choices.
The Mountain Eagle faction is more biased toward planned management, which strengthens the efficiency of city management and damages the activity of the private economy; the Haiya faction is more biased toward freedom, weakening its control over the city, but making the private economy highly developed.
