Chapter 1 Heart-to-heart

On the evening of the twentieth day of the twelfth month of the lunar calendar, Wang Kunjun and his entourage arrived at the Five Tiger Village. Zhang Weixin and others led the minions to greet them in the road outside the walled gate. After everyone met and greeted each other, they went straight to the Juyi Hall together.

As soon as I entered the door of the Gathering Hall, a wave of heat rushed in front of me. Zhang Weixin and others asked the minions to light twelve huge copper charcoal braziers in the hall in advance, and roasted the entire hall hot, making Wang Kunjun and others, who had been blowing the cold wind all the way, feel warm, and praised Lao Zhang for being careful.

Since a total of twenty-two people from the Yuxu Palace came to the Five Tiger Village this time, except for Qingchen, who was one grade worse in seniority, everyone else should have seats, plus Liu Wanbao - Xing Bude's physical condition could not support him to come to the meeting - so Zhang Weixin arranged twenty-two chairs in the Juyi Hall in advance. The pattern has been modified with reference to the original situation of Wuhu Village.

One of them is still the tiger skin chair that Wei Caisi was sitting on, facing the door, and on the wall behind him is a picture of a tiger descending the mountain. On either side of this chair, there are two other chairs, which are slightly ahead of the tiger skin chair in the center. The other seventeen chairs are placed opposite each other at the bottom of the five, with two rows on each side, three of which are four chairs and the remaining row of five chairs.

Everyone looked a little confused in the face of this row of chairs, so they didn't know what Zhang Weixin was doing, and he was so idle that he had nothing to do with the chair array, it was better to get a few tables and put a few chairs around. Including Zeng Zhilin, Tang Chao and others who went up the mountain before, they did not participate in the arrangement of the Juyi Hall, and today they are all engaged in by Zhang Weixin, Qingchen and Liu Wanbao.

Although I was a little dizzy, no one cared about it. In their eyes, it's just a place to chat, and it's the same to sit no matter how you sit. Just when everyone was about to find a chair to sit down, Zhang Weixin and Qingchen stepped forward and arranged seats for everyone seemingly casually.

After some tossing, all the twenty or so people finally sat down. Among them, Wang Kunjun was arranged on the tiger skin chair in the middle, Li Junwu and Xu Shaoan on his right, Zhang Weixin and Liu Wanbao on the left, and everyone else sat on the seventeen chairs at the bottom, and Qingchen stood behind Wang Kunjun.

After everyone sat down, they began to listen to Zhang Weixin's explanation of the details of the reorganization of the cottage soldiers, and familiarize themselves with the specific steps of the reorganization ceremony the next day, so as not to make mistakes at that time. When everyone else began to concentrate on listening, Wang Kunjun became distracted. This is not to say that he is not interested in the integration of Jihua, but he has had a comprehensive communication with Zhang Weixin through the radio before, and he can be called a good master of Jihua, and it doesn't matter if he listens to Zhang Weixin's detailed explanation or not.

At this time, Wang Kunjun listened to Zhang Weixin's explanation with a match, and glanced at the furnishings in this righteous hall. Perhaps because there were rough people in the cottage at the beginning, no one would care about whether the hall layout was beautiful, so there was basically no decorative furnishings in this hall, except for the seats and charcoal braziers, only the painting behind him and the two large rows of weapon shelves placed on the left and right against the wall, which could barely be regarded as a piece of furnishings.

Wang Kunjun's gaze shifted from the rough furnishings to the rows of chairs in front of him, and looked at the bodies of his companions, wondering whether his cousin should think of some way to solve the relationship problems for those brothers who did not have wives after they got married. Of course, by the way, you can also solve your own emotional problems.

Looking at it, Wang Kunjun suddenly found a problem, or an obvious difference. He found that, as if inadvertently, the brothers' seats were divided into two parts. This separation does not refer to the direction of the chair, but to the difference between those who sit in the chair. And this distinction is based on the so-called small factions and small groups in the team, and the position they are currently sitting in is the middle line. On his left-hand side, except for Liu Wanbao, they are all companions of the car club that crossed with him, that is, the Dongshan faction in the team in private. And on his right-hand side, there are traversers from the army, the so-called West Valley faction. Not only that, but on the side of the Nishiya faction below, the front and back rows of participants were also seated next to the members of the small group to which they belonged.

Although Wang Kunjun also wanted to comfort himself with the reason that everyone was willing to sit with people he knew, this somewhat overly clear phenomenon made him have to think more. He subconsciously turned his head to look at Zhang Weixin, who was still concentrating on explaining Jihua, and wondered if this arrangement was deliberately done by this iron buddy and old classmate. But it was not appropriate to ask at this time, so he thought about it, turned his head, and asked Qingchen behind him in a low voice: "Qingchen, do you know who arranged the seats in this righteous hall?" ”

Qingchen hurriedly leaned down and replied in a low voice: "Uncle Yu, the seats here are all arranged by Uncle Zhang, Liu Dangjia, and the little nephew, does Uncle Shi think there is anything wrong?" ”

Wang Kunjun did not directly answer Qingchen's question, but asked again: "Did your Uncle Zhang say why he arranged it this way when he arranged it?" ”

Qingchen thought for a moment and replied: "Uncle Zhang didn't seem to say anything, the little nephew just remembered that Master Liu once asked Uncle Zhang whether the tiger skin chair in the middle was sat by Uncle Zhang." Uncle Zhang waved his hand again and again and said, no, no, no. This seat is reserved for the most prestigious people in my Jade Void Palace. The little nephew asked Uncle Zhang at that time, whether this most prestigious person is Uncle Wang. Uncle Zhang didn't answer directly, just smiled and nodded. Later, Uncle Zhang explained to me that a certain chair was for a certain uncle to sit on, and told me to remember it and not make mistakes. As for why this was arranged, Uncle Zhang did not tell the little nephew. ”

After listening to Qingchen's answer, Wang Kunjun seemed to have an understanding in his heart. He asked again: "Who else knows about this matter except you and Liu Dangjia?" ”

"Uncle Yu, when I was arranging the Righteous Hall today, there were a lot of minions helping. However, the sound in the hall was noisy at that time, and it is estimated that except for the little nephew and Liu Dangjia, only Liu Xiaoliu, who was next to Liu Dangjia, heard it, and no one else should have noticed our conversation. ”

Wang Kunjun listened, nodded, and told Qingchen to stop this matter, and there was no need to tell others about it. Although Qingchen didn't quite understand why this Uncle Wang cared so much about Uncle Zhang's arrangement, didn't he want to be this leader? It doesn't seem like it. However, since Uncle Wang commanded, he did so, if there is anything he doesn't understand, go back and ask Master again. ,

Here, Wang Kunjun ended the conversation with Qingchen, and Zhang Weixin basically finished speaking. He turned his head and said to Wang Kunjun, "Old Wang, do you have anything else to add?" ”

Wang Kunjun didn't have his mind on his explanation, so he said that he had nothing to talk about. Later, Zhang Weixin asked Xu Shaoan and Li Junwu for their opinions, and the two also said that Zhang Weixin's Jihua was already very perfect, and there was no need to make any changes.

Seeing that everyone had nothing to say, Zhang Weixin proposed: "Since this is the case, then let's hold this meeting here, and everyone will go to dinner." Everyone agreed with this, especially the batch of people who came from Fan Yang, who were already a little hungry at this time, so they naturally would not object to his suggestion.

The group walked out of the Juyi Hall and followed Zhang Weixin and others to a house. This was originally the residence of Wu Xinqing, the third master, and it was idle after Wu Xinqing's death. After the Yuxu Palace received the Five Tiger Village, after Zhang Weixin's instructions, Liu Wanbao sent people to clean it up again in the past few days, and now it is used as the temporary residence of the Taoist masters of the Yuxu Palace. After everyone came to the main hall and took their seats, the banquet was quickly served. Everyone is also welcome, and the excitement of pushing cups and changing lamps is lively.

The banquet lasted until it was close to Hai, and after everyone went to their respective accommodations to rest, Wang Kunjun asked Wang Feng to call Zhang Weixin to his room. After chatting a little, Wang Kunjun brought up the problem of the seating arrangement he saw in the Juyi Hall, hoping that Zhang Weixin could have a reasonable explanation.

Zhang Weixin obviously expected that his good brother and iron buddy would ask him this question, so he said calmly: "I knew that you would ask me about this, even if you don't ask, I will come to you to explain this matter." Yes, I deliberately arranged the seats in the Hall of Justice today. ”

When Wang Kunjun saw him so directly, he admitted that this was his intention, and he couldn't help but feel unhappy. He has always been committed to harmonizing the relationships between team members and bringing them together as much as possible to form an organic whole. So that the team members can unreservedly contribute all their liliang to the collective, and promote the healthy and long-term development of the team.

The last thing he wants to see is for these members from different places, based on the proximity and proximity of personal relationships, forming small groups. That is likely to create a conflict of interest between small groups, which can lead to internal friction. Now the strength of the team is still very small, and it can't withstand such internal friction.

As the time of this era has become longer and longer, through his continuous efforts, the boundaries between the small groups that were relatively obvious at the beginning of the crossing have faded a lot, and all the traversers have become more and more harmonious with each other. At this time, Zhang Weixin did the opposite, obviously to make the diluted boundary clearer. This couldn't help but make Wang Kunjun not angry, so after hearing Zhang Weixin happily admit his actions, he wanted to criticize his behavior. As a result, before he could speak, he was intercepted by Zhang Weixin and said, "Lao Wang, don't worry, listen to what I say?" ”

Although Wang Kunjun had opinions on the iron buddy's approach, he would not fail to give the other party a chance to explain, so he patiently listened to Zhang Weixin's explanation.

Zhang Weixin pondered for a while, and then said, "Lao Wang, I know your thoughts, and I know very well the various efforts you have made to this end. First of all, I would like to express my appreciation and admiration for the work you have done to bring the team together, and there is no doubt about the role you have done in getting the team through the first difficult times. Without your active coordination and bridge, it is difficult to say whether our team would have maintained this integrity and maintained such a state of cooperation.

However, the situation is different now than it was at the beginning of the crossing. At the beginning, we had to work hard for our own survival, and no one could guarantee whether we would be able to live safely. At that time, not to mention fighting for one's own interests, even the things that oneself brought from the previous life had to be taken out and used in a unified manner. It can be said that we practiced the so-called primitive communism at that time, and all the resources that could be used were collective. But now it's different, now we have thousands of assets, several properties, and this cottage and the three hundred minions in the cottage. Around these huge interests, egalitarianism doesn't work. ”

"Haven't we already implemented the distribution method of collective ownership and distribution according to work? Why would you go to the extra mile of lifting me out and deliberately trying to make the small group of the team clearer? Wang Kunjun interrupted Zhang Weixin and asked.

"Don't worry, listen to what I'm saying. We have indeed adopted a plan of collective ownership and distribution according to work. But that's just about the distribution of money, just like when a company makes money, it can use the distribution of those profits according to work. However, even if it is a company, there are different positions and different levels of personnel within it. There must be not only ordinary employees, but also the chairman and general manager. If everyone has the same position, without the relationship between management and management, the company will not be able to operate normally.

What's more, our current situation is far more complex than a company, and we need the presence of leaders more. If nothing else, let's just say that these 300 minions, they don't know what kind of democratic system, they only know how to follow the orders of the leader. And in their minds, more than 30 of us actually belong to the leader. This requires a person who can speak and count, and be able to make a final decision at a critical moment, otherwise with so many leaders commanding together, the minions below will definitely be at a loss, and it will definitely cause chaos.

And among the more than 30 of us, the most suitable for this big boss position is you, Wang Kunjun. I dare to say that even if the general election is held, the final winner will definitely be you, Wang Kunjun. However, such elections must not take place, and the reason is also on these minions. You have to understand that they were people of the tenth century and did not have the concept of democratic elections at all. They only know that you, Wang Kunjun, are the big boss and are supported by the leaders, and they don't understand what the so-called election is all about. If we hold another election in the future, if you continue to be elected, there will be nothing to say. But if you lose the job and are replaced by another team member, that's the problem. At that time, the first reaction of these minions is probably that your Wang Kunjun has been usurped by his leader, and the new big leader is a chaotic minister and thief. And what the consequences of their thinking will be, you should be able to imagine. ,

As for the issue of making small groups clear, I admit that I have some selfish intentions. But I swear that this selfishness is not for me personally, I am for the sake of the entire Dongshan faction, and for the Dongshan faction to continue to control the future development of the team. You should be able to imagine that these 300 minions in the cottage will definitely be a big boost to the team's future development, and the Nishiya faction are all soldiers, and they have an innate advantage in training and commanding minions. Once they have full control of the team, they will definitely increase their voice in the team. You also agreed that we should control the team's voice, and you definitely don't want this situation of losing control of the team. That's why I want to make the phenomenon of small groups clear, and I recommend that Qian Yuanshan, Zeng Zhilin, Lu Yue, Tang Chao and Mutel be the five people who are to be selected for the left-behind cottages. In this way, it is impossible to reach an agreement between the different small groups of the Xigu faction, so that Dazhi and Lu Yue can occupy an active position in the general decision-making of the cottage, and only then can it be ensured that these three hundred minions will not be controlled by the Xigu faction.

That's all I have to say, and if you feel that what I'm doing is wrong, you can immediately convene an enlarged meeting of the committee to reopen my proposal, change it, or even suggest that the committee remove me from my membership. ”

After Zhang Weixin finished his tirade, he kicked the ball to Wang Kunjun. At this time, Wang Kunjun had already understood the good intentions of his iron buddy, and knew that he hoped that his people could become active decision-makers in team development, rather than passive executors. After all, this is an era in which force is paramount, and the soldiers of the Xigu faction do have an innate advantage in this regard, as Zhang Weixin said. As far as my own profession is concerned, I am afraid that there is really nothing to do except coordinate the relationship between members and resolve internal contradictions. However, if you can't control the right to speak, then you will lack authority when carrying out relevant mediation work, and you will lose the necessity of work over time. At that time, I am afraid that I will really become idle. So if you compare the help that all members of the team can provide for the development of the team, I am afraid that I am the most useless one, and sooner or later I will become a drag on the team. In this way, in order to be able to reflect their own value, only the job of team leader is the most suitable.

Thinking of this, the expression on Wang Kunjun's face softened a lot, and said, "Brother, what you said is very reasonable. I understand that you are doing this as a last resort for the benefit of the majority. However, you should discuss it with me, it's not good to have a surprise attack. Thankfully, no one has raised objections to your arrangement today, otherwise what would you ask me to explain? ”

As he spoke, Wang Kunjun stretched out his fist and slapped Zhang Weixin's shoulder, and said with a helpless wry smile: "Brother, you are roasting me on the fire." ”

Zhang Weixin patted Wang Kunjun on the shoulder, and said with a sly smile: "Hehe, they are all their own brothers, there is no need to be so polite." Besides, if I don't roast you on the fire, who else can I roast on the fire, is it possible that I put myself on the side to roast, then I don't feel uncomfortable for myself. ”

When Wang Kunjun heard this, his face was suddenly full of black lines, and he pointed at Zhang Weixin and scolded with a smile: "You said that you look like a loyal and honest person on the surface, why do you have so many flowers and intestines in your stomach!" ”

Zhang Weixin continued to pat Wang Kunjun on the shoulder and said: "Do you think I want to do this, the question is, the interpersonal relationship in college is much more complicated than in your software company, can you do it without a little bit of care?" ”

After speaking, the two looked at each other and smiled. And Wang Feng, who was assigned by Wang Kunjun and had been sitting next to the door to watch the wind, also broke the silence at this time and said, "Brother, you only know that Teacher Zhang has a lot of eyes." I've learned it before, and this guy has a lot of twists and turns in his belly. But this time I did a great thing, and I was the first to raise my hands in favor of making you the big leader. ”

Wang Kunjun grabbed a hard walnut from the dried fruit bowl on the table next to him, threw it at him, and said angrily: "You kid talks a lot." You remember it for me, don't think that if I become a big boss, you can do whatever you want. Keep a low profile for me in the future, or I'll see how I clean you up. ”

Wang Feng knew that his cousin was scaring him, so he was not afraid. Catch the walnut and put it in the palm of your hand, and with a force of both hands, the walnut will crumble. He ate walnuts while stealing pleasure there. Wang Kunjun has no problem with him, and he can't punish him for no reason. He simply ignored him, and discussed with Zhang Weixin again how to deal with any team members from the Xigu faction who disagreed with Zhang Weixin's arrangement, and then ended the conversation.
