Wolf King

Chapter 140 Please jump into the pit

It takes ten to twelve days to sail from the west coast of the North Continent to the ice-free port of Valentine in the South Continent, which is quite a boring period of time.

Steelmaking technology has long been born in this world, and hundreds of types of synthetic steel have been created by alchemists. Naturally, shipbuilding no longer relies on natural wood; but it is limited by technical limitations (mainly the diversification of cross-continental means of communication, the fantasy form of war, The demand for sailing is not strong, and the shipbuilding industry cannot flourish as it does on Earth.) Even long-distance ships cannot be built too large, and ships sailing inland seas are of course not that big; the space on board is limited, and entertainment activities Deficiency, lack of spiritual food, it is boring to go to heaven by boat.

In the past, Primo had to bring a few barrels of good rum to pass the time every time he went out to sea by boat, but this time he went out to sea with the team of the Snow Wolf Clan, and the experience of God of War was very special...

A fleet composed of one large, four small and five inland ships. In the main hall of the largest main ship, the tables in the middle are joined together. Several snow werewolves spread out the table and set up tools, and are "performing" N ways of eating wheat flour:

The table on the left is the noodle cooking team, and the "participating members" are the cub Lizi and the grassroots patriarch; the grassroots patriarch's strong and powerful arms danced flexibly in mid-air, and she repeatedly pulled a section of flour torn from the kneaded dough Stretch and stretch the noodles into thin and firm noodles, and throw them into the steaming cauldron; Bowl, quickly add red oil fried with bean paste, spicy rabbit whistle, blanched bean sprouts, green onion and garlic, etc., with a flick of the wrist, the freshly baked red oil rabbit noodles will slide steadily to the other side of the long table .

The adventurers who happened to be in line immediately grabbed the bowl, squatted aside, and ate it with their own forks.

With a "grunt", Primo, who was sitting in a corner of the hall, swallowed subconsciously.

The table on the right is the roasted gluten group, and the "participating member" is the head of the Li family.After the kneaded dough is sealed and left to rise, it is kneaded and washed in clean water. The washed gluten is spread out and cut into strips, put on the grill, brushed and baked, and eaten with roasted rabbit meat and roasted leeks. The flavor is endless. Even the original cooks on the boat squatted in front of Patriarch Li's grill and waited in line.

The flour water washed during the gluten washing process is not wasted. The raw material used by the Liangpi team in the middle of the counter is this thing. A spoonful of flour water is scooped into a special iron plate and spread out, and ten plates and one cage are placed in a steamer. Cook for 3 minutes, take out the iron plate, tear off the cold skin, cut it into strips and put it in a bowl, add the auxiliary ingredients to the salad, this is where the people who finish eating ramen and roasted gluten are queuing up...

"Why are these guys going back and forth to eat endlessly!" After waiting for half an hour, the number of people in the queue in the hall had not decreased.

The biggest advantage of working for the Snow Wolf Clan is undoubtedly the three meals a day. Not to mention that Primo can’t afford this benefit, many adventurers can’t stop running because of this stuttering...

There are more than a hundred people (adventurers + crew) lined up in the hall. In the restaurant at the other end of the corridor, the four casters who can get preferential treatment don’t have to squeeze with others. They enjoy being with the snow wolf tribe. The same VIP treatment - no need to line up, just wait for others to deliver to the table.

Stir-fry ginger, garlic, chili and peppercorns in soybean oil, add bean paste and stir-fry red oil, and stir-fry the sliced ​​pork belly. Those who can't hook it well, their saliva is drooling.

The cub Moore, a part-time chef, suddenly thought of something, poked his head out of the kitchen: "I forgot to ask, who among you can't eat spicy food?"

A young spellcaster quickly raised his hand: "I can't eat much..."

Moore: "Oh, then wait a minute and don't eat twice-cooked pork."

"—Wait, I can actually eat spicy food too." The young spellcaster quickly changed his words.

Moore: "??"

Xiao Yun suppressed a smile and waved to Moore: "It's okay, you can continue to fry, just put less spicy in the next pot."

"I'd better go help, he's cooking too slowly." Sunshine, the cub sitting next to Xiao Yun, couldn't wait any longer, got up and ran towards the kitchen.

"Why are you here, it's my turn to cook today!" Moore's reluctant voice came from the kitchen quickly.

"Who told you to fry so slowly?"

"do not come!"

"..." Xiao Yun turned his face to look at the other table, "Let's go to another person so that they won't fight."

"I'll go." Immediately, an adult clansman stood up.

Sean silently watched the adult snow werewolf's back disappear by the door, and looked back at Xiao Yun: "I didn't expect the snow werewolf to be so good at cooking. Every one who comes out is a high-level cook who can't be met."

Xiao Yun smiled a little awkwardly, he didn't want to be proud of this at all - these guys love food too much!Learning other things is not fast, but cooking is easy to see!

Now the most popular position in the tribe is the canteen cook... Is there any reason for this? !

It’s easy to say that after eating and drinking snow wolves with Primo for more than ten days (higher than those in food stores), Sean’s attitude is not the same as at the beginning. The nose is not the nose and the face is not the face. I can't get over my face, I can't get my face off and kneel and lick...

After eating and giving half an hour to digest, Xiao Yun released the clansmen, found the adventurers scattered in every corner of the ship, brought them to the lobby to gather, and started to strengthen discipline education again—limited to the space on the ship, there was no room for running and jumping. Standing in line, doing squats and push-ups is fine.

All the staff practiced until they were exhausted and couldn't even climb up, so Xiao Yun gave up on these guys... It's not that he eats too much and has nothing to do, but that if these guys are full of energy, it will be really troublesome As soon as it comes out, it's a risk!

Xiao Yun ignored them in the first two days on board, and fought more than a dozen times in just 48 hours, how can this be tolerated? !

Xiao En spent a long time in the room he was assigned to mentally build up, and made up his mind to come out to find Xiao Yun. When he arrived in the hall, he saw a corpse lying there...

"Mr. Sean?" Xiao Yun stepped over the "corpse" and came out, unexpectedly, "Are you looking for Primo? He should be on the deck, fishing with Lizi, Moore, and Sunshine."

"..." The handsome old man turned his face away arrogantly, "No, actually I want to talk to you."

coming!Xiao Yun was overjoyed, his face was as steady as an old dog, and he nodded naturally: "Okay, I happen to be free, shall we go to the restaurant?"

The grassroots patriarch and the Li patriarch came out of the hall slowly, seeing Ayun and Xiao En leaving, they looked at each other in blank dismay.

"Didn't Ah Yun say to give us a lesson later? Can't we have this lesson yet?" Patriarch Li muttered.

"Let's take a look later, anyway, we have nothing else to do, we are idle." The grassroots patriarch didn't care much, "Let's see...they are too ugly to lie down, let's move them back, otherwise there will be no turning back." For local use."

"Okay." Patriarch Li bent down and picked up an adventurer, carried it to his shoulder, and then picked up another one and put it in his arm. "Wait, where to move? I don't know which room they live in."

"It's enough for four people to fit in one room." The grassroots patriarch said, "By the way, other races are different from us. Men and women should be separated, and those with fleshy chest should not be crowded with those without flesh."

"Uh..." Patriarch Li looked down at the fat man in his arm in embarrassment, "Does this have meat or no meat?"

"Well——" the grassroots patriarch squatted down and stared at the fat adventurer for a long time, "There is no beard, and the skin is smooth..." He stretched out his hand and squeezed his chest, not sure, "It should be considered fleshy ?”

"Pfft!" The adventurer, who was being carried half-dead by Patriarch Li, couldn't help but laugh out loud in pain.

The fat adventurer who was only half breathed raised his head with difficulty: "...I am a man!"

"It's so troublesome!" Patriarch Li said dissatisfiedly.

"It's hard to tell." The grassroots patriarch sighed.

The adventurers who fell by the door heard this conversation, and they were able to move so hard that they climbed up...

Captain Hannah didn't want to be pinched by the chest to distinguish between men and women. He stood up against the wall with a pale face, and took two steps forward with trembling legs. His knees were weak and he fell limp. Sack pressed a piece of porcelain.

Isaac seemed to see the grandfather in heaven for a moment: "..."

"I'm sorry, buddy...you know, I mean no harm." Hannah stood up again, leaning on the wall, not daring to let go, "Damn... If I had known that these snow werewolves were so strict about rules, I would have killed those who fought." The guy was beaten to death."

Isaac struggled to turn over and panted while lying flat: "It's okay... Ha, me too."

The two regiment leaders exchanged sympathetic looks, and sighed together...

"I'm starting to miss the boring and boring sailing experience in the past. What's so bad about doing nothing but drinking every day? Why do you hate the days of being on a boat at that time?" Isaac was so sad that he wanted to cry. He had suffered ten times more when he was trained as a knight.

"The food of the Snow Wolf tribe and the days of doing nothing are the comfort." Hannah stared at the dead fish eyes, "After eating their pasta, I can't imagine how to live on bread that is harder than a stick .”

The bread on the modern earth is soft and delicious, the main reason is the specially cultivated low-gluten flour plus the scientific and mechanized baking process; Adding sawdust to increase the weight, and the taste of eating is quite indescribable... The reason why the vermicelli of the Snow Wolf tribe can be made has a lot to do with the staple food in this world.

Isaac recalled what he had eaten on the boat before, and the strong regret was immediately dispelled by half...

"It's too evil. They really used delicious food to destroy our will and perseverance, so that we had to jump into their trap even though we knew it was a disaster!" Arnold, the dwarf lying on his stomach and unable to move, beat the ground angrily.

"That's right, that's it!" The female adventurer lying next to Arnold bitterly hated her.

"Eh? What kind of trap?" The two patriarchs came back from a trip, curiously.

Adventurers: "..." Quiet as a chicken.

"They're talking bad about us." Patriarch Li guessed wittily.

"Is that so, haha, what is this? It's much easier to do this than farming and building roads. If you are going to get angry, what will you do if you go to our tribe." The grassroots patriarch picked up two adventurers.

Hannah looked over in disbelief: "Your tribe also wants to practice this?"

"If we don't practice, we have too many serious things to do, so we don't have time to play this kind of game." The grassroots patriarch said frankly.

Adventurers: "..." It was as quiet as a chicken again.

When the two patriarchs carried the people away, Arnold's face turned pale: "I have a bad guess, don't these snow werewolves think that our race's physical strength is similar to theirs?"

"What are you kidding, what do these monsters think of weak humans!" The female adventurer slapped the floor angrily.

"No...I don't think that's the case." Isaac twitched the corner of his mouth, "That Sal who dined with us doesn't need to train like us, it should be... we are adventurers."

As soon as these words came out, the adventurers who had always been proud of the industry they were engaged in all cried bitterly...

Xiao Yun and Xiao En came out refreshed after having a secret conversation, and found that the adventurers in the corridors and halls were very quiet and honest, either reading travel notes, or chatting in low voices, even arguing and bickering. No.

"What did you two do?" Xiao Yun came to the two patriarchs in amazement. Those guys usually don't have the strength to fight and make trouble, but they still have the strength to quarrel. What happened today?

Grass Root & Chestnut: "??"

"Ayun, are you still in class today?" Patriarch Li only cared about what he cared about.

"If you want to go, call the others for me, and I'll catch those three crazy people." Xiao Yun patted his head and walked out.

The wind and waves in the inner sea were not strong, and the sea surface was relatively calm, so the deck became a space for the three cubs to play.Xiao Yun walked out of the cabin, and as soon as he raised his head, he saw Li Zi kicking Moore into the sea...

"Hello?!" Xiao Yun was startled.

Hearing another groan, Moore turned into a wolf and jumped onto the deck from the sea covered in water, throwing down the laughing pear.

"?!" Xiao Yun didn't understand what was going on with this scene that violated the common sense of physics, and hurried to the edge of the deck to look down.

Then he saw Primo speechlessly, with a rope tied around his waist, jumping in the sea water, while the sun was holding a cable hanging down from the deck, carrying a dolphin up.

The two looked at each other, and Sunshine's climbing movements froze.

"...Put it back, the dolphins are not allowed to eat." Blue veins appeared on Xiao Yun's forehead.

Sunshine pursed his mouth and reluctantly let go, and the struggling dolphin fell back into the sea with a plop.

"Why did you let it go... Uh, Ah Yun is here." Primo got out of the water and smiled awkwardly.

"Didn't the crew tell you countless times that the dolphins wandering around the fleet are not allowed to eat, what are you thinking!" Xiao Yun was so angry that he patted the ship's side hard.

"Isn't this something you've never eaten before..." Primo beeped softly.

"There are so many things we haven't eaten, do you want to taste them, huh? Sunshine! Don't let me climb up!" Xiao Yun said angrily, "Plimo, you come up too. I'll give you what you can. This boat doesn't have a propeller, so it can kill you!"

Primo felt wronged, and boarded the boat with downcast eyes...

Originally, Primo was expected to be able to take care of the three cubs, the old man of the Gangxue Wolf Clan, who was able to fight head-on, but he didn't expect that this guy would go crazy with the cubs.Looking back again, seeing the two cubs on the deck biting and biting with white hair flying all over the sky, Xiao Yun felt his stomach start to colic: "——I can't stop!!"

After giving the three cubs who were getting more and more skinny, Xiao Yun tiredly dragged the four back to the cabin hall and started the class.

"Today we continue to talk about the issues that should be paid attention to during the recruitment period and in the management of workers in the future."

Sooner or later, the snow wolf tribe will enter the field of vision of all tribes in Bloomfield, and it will be a matter of time to deal with humans with the largest number of people.At the beginning, Xiao Yun planned to use St. Bridge as a window for his clansmen to understand human society, but St. Bridge was too far away... It would take more than a month to sail for a one-way trip. How could he spend so much time on the road?

The next best thing is to choose the Bolton territory, the hometown of Valentine and Thrall, so the work of "vaccinating" the clansmen must be done well... If the adventurers are squeezed out of physical strength, the snow werewolves are squeezed out. Even brain power, it's hard to say which one is easier...

"Which workers are we recruiting for this time? The first choice is the young and middle-aged men with families and women among the peasants at the bottom of the city and villages and towns. The former are responsible for family living expenses, while the latter are To support children, as long as we can provide salaries that are higher than the local average, these two types of people will be able to work hard, endure hardships, and will not give up at every turn..."

In the corner of the hall, Isaac & Hannah who were called to listen: "..."

"The second choice is unmarried young women, girls are also welcome. This type of workers are mainly farmers and poor families in villages and towns. Young women in cities may not be able to endure hardship. Finally, there are single young men without family burdens. Why should we divide it like this, because this kind of people who have no family responsibilities are not stable, and our factory is close to the Elf port, if someone runs halfway to become an adventurer, then our early investment in employment training will be lost The water is floating..."

"The threshold for adventurers isn't that low!" Hannah blushed, beeping softly.

Isaac didn't speak, and quietly wiped his sweat, with an unconcealable surprise on his face... Although Ayun was talking about their recruitment target group, the more he thought about it, the more he felt that what he said was very reasonable and even feasible What about other fields?

In the adventurer team, the most frequent turnover of personnel is indeed single men, followed by single women, and finally men and women with family burdens... Especially the former, who have earned dozens of gold coins and are too lazy to live and work hard, go to spend time and drink There are many people who come back after spending all their money!

Xiao Yun brought out the grassroots patriarch and chestnut patriarch, and originally intended to keep these two patriarchs on the west coast as the principal and deputy factory directors—the grassroots patriarch has experience in leading a team to engage in earthworm farming, and the chestnut patriarch has a traitorous personality... ...he was the only one among the earliest group of snow wolf patriarchs who came to work as a soldier with the cheek.With him assisting the grassroots patriarch, Xiao Yun felt more at ease.

As for the other adult clansmen and the three cubs, they just came out to increase their knowledge...Of course, if there is someone who can perform well, Xiao Yun will use it without hesitation.

"...Our estimated recruitment quota is 500 people. The biggest problem after these [-] workers are put into work is the management problem. We can't do everything by ourselves, so we need to choose from among the workers. Activists with excellent performance act as middle management, which is similar to the work done by Dashui and Qingcao in our tribe. Managing humans with humans can also avoid as much as possible for us to live with humans as snow wolves or other Any conflicting friction caused by differences in habits."

"What kind of human beings are suitable for this middle-level management job? Needless to say, everyone knows that those who are hardworking, smart, have certain organizational skills, and can unite and lead others are candidates. We mainly talk about what kind of people The ____ does not work."

"The first type of person who cannot be used is a person whose thinking mode is extreme. It is either black or white, generalized, and grateful for a small favor from others, and lifts others to infinite heights. If something doesn't suit him, he immediately Turn your face; no matter how strong this kind of person is, he can only be an ordinary worker and cannot be promoted, because this kind of person is too emotional and unstable, and what he does is "only treat people and not treat things". If you have no power, let it be. Even a little bit of power like Douzi is more likely to cause bad things than to make things happen, so it is unreliable."

Some of the clansmen understood and some didn't; the grassroots patriarch rubbed his chin and memorized it by rote, while Li patriarch nodded repeatedly.

The two captains, Isaac and Hannah, kept their jaws dropping and their eyes widened. The same thought was going back and forth in their minds: So this is what happened! !

Among the adventurers, there are not a few people whose thinking logic is extreme, and there are not a few who have cheated the team and their companions. Both team leaders have suffered similar losses; but they cannot efficiently summarize the losses they have suffered. It can be accumulated into the experience as a comprehensible experience, and now hearing Xiao Yun's words, I immediately feel enlightened.

"The second type that cannot be used is the person who cannot correctly distinguish the implementation of responsibilities. This type of person is also divided into two types, one is excessive external attribution, and the other is excessive internal attribution. When something goes wrong or something goes wrong In some cases, the former will attribute all the mistakes to others and refuse to admit that they have made mistakes. Such a person has a low sense of responsibility and is too aggressive; the latter takes all mistakes on himself and has no guiding value for subordinates. I can’t take on the big responsibility.”

"The so-called management is not just to manage others. Who wouldn't do such a verbal thing? A qualified management is not only to manage the affairs at hand, but also to be a role model for the people below. Let your subordinates feel that following you has a future and can make progress, and stimulate their enthusiasm for work. Only such a management can become the backbone of the team's development and progress..."

Isaac gaped, Hannah grinned and pinched her thigh hard.

The two regiment leaders were not familiar with each other before they were hired by the Snow Wolf Clan, and they had never dealt with each other before, but now the thoughts in their minds were in sync again: Why didn't I hear these words five or ten years earlier!Otherwise, how many wrong roads can I/my wife avoid!

Stumbling and fumbling all the way to lead the team, both Isaac and Hannah have suffered countless hardships and dark losses, all experience has to be accumulated by bumping into disgrace, and only you know how it feels; Yun forced knowledge into the head of the Snow Werewolf, and the two of them understood how precious these words were.

On the other side, Primo, who was completely uninterested in these things, yawned brazenly, and Sean focused on the two captains after hearing half of it.

Seeing their reaction, Xiao En nodded secretly... Ah Yun really knows how to buy people's hearts with subtle means.

In the past, Xiao En would hate this kind of tricks to play with people's hearts, but now he is on the back of Xiao Yun's boat...it smells so good.
