Chapter 60 Assessment
Near noon, Liang Ziyue and Cheng Fei, under the guidance of the two little Taoist children of Yuxu Palace, drove two carriages to Wuhu Village. Zhang Weixin and others all went to the gate of the village to greet them and took them directly to Liu Wanbao's house. The two little Taoist children also completed the task here, unloaded the things on the car and returned to the Jade Void Palace.
In addition to a 7.62 mm side-by-side machine gun, there is also a box of small bombs, a telescope, an infrared night vision device, and a manpower generator for charging the radio. These were all specially brought over by Liang Ziyue in order to ensure their safety.
Although Liu Wanbao on the side didn't know what the purpose of these strange things was, he could also judge that these things were by no means owned by Middle-earth, but he was afraid that their power was no worse than the magical weapon that could only kill people a hundred steps away at night without light. However, these Dao masters didn't take the initiative to tell him, and it was inconvenient for him to ask. With a feeling of awe, I could only watch all the Dao Masters move these things into the rooms where they lived, and then immediately arrange for the next people to prepare meals, so as to wash the dust for the two new Dao Masters.
After eating a sumptuous lunch, Liang Ziyue asked for a blank paper from Liu Wanbao, and then took out the signature pen brought by his previous life from his arms, and began to type a grid on the paper to prepare for the registration and making of the book. Everyone else who had pens with them sat down to help him, and in a short time he was ready to do so.
At the beginning of the day, the Taoist priests, accompanied by Liu Wanbao, came to the Juyi Hall again, and asked Liu Wanbao's personal soldiers to simply arrange the place, put a few tables and tables, and add a few chairs.
This time, the minions reacted quite quickly, but in a few minutes, nearly 300 minions lined up under the leadership of their leader, and none of them were late. After Liu Erxing reported that all the staff had arrived, Liu Wanbao ordered the registration to start after asking Zhang Weixin.
Immediately, all the minions entered the Juyi Hall in batches, lined up in front of the table where Liang Ziyue and Zeng Zhilin were sitting, and reported their names, ages, places of origin, time of occupation, current positions, and so on. Liang and Zeng carefully looked at these minions and recorded the relevant information on the record, while the team that was not in turn rested and waited on the spot.
At first, they were waiting outside the Juyi Hall, but later Zhang Weixin was afraid that they would freeze after waiting for a long time, so he asked the minions who had not yet registered to take shelter in the side halls on both sides of the Juyi Hall, and at the same time lit charcoal fires to keep warm. Although in Zhang Weixin's opinion, this is just a gesture, but those minions feel it deeply, and many people have begun to think about him in their hearts.
Due to the large number of minions, the work did not end until it was dark. After sending Zuihou and his minions back to their residence to rest, Liang Ziyue rubbed his eyes, which were a little sour because of the lack of light, and said to Zhang Weixin: "Lao Zhang, let's stop here today." When we get back, Dazhi and I will sort out this information and report back to you and the committee. ”
Zhang Weixin waved his hand and said, "This matter is not in a hurry At this time, you and Cheng Fei have been on the road all morning, and they have been busy all afternoon, and they are very tired." After going back for dinner in a while, you can rest well for the night, and it's not too late to do the relevant work tomorrow. ”
Liang Ziyue and Cheng Fei felt warm in their hearts when they heard this, and they didn't insist anymore. Everyone returned to their residences, and after eating the dinner prepared by Liu Wanbao, Liang and Cheng went to rest. After Zhang Weixin and the others informed Yuxu Palace of today's situation, they came to another bedroom to study the relevant work arrangements behind.
According to the previous Jihua, after completing the registration work, it is time to start a detailed investigation of the existing minions and large and small leaders to grasp their actual abilities and determine whether they are indeed suitable for the current position.
These current leaders are all promoted by the original masters, and some have climbed up step by step by relying on strength, and some have risen through close relations with several leaders. As the saying goes, "once a son of heaven is a courtier", this truth is the same in the cottage. Now that the leader has changed, those leaders who rely on connections to get to the top will naturally have to be cleaned up. However, considering the stability of the team, it was not possible to remove them too bluntly, so after discussion, everyone decided to eliminate those unqualified leaders by conducting a quality assessment. In this way, they can not only convince their hearts to lose, but also find those with outstanding abilities as soon as possible and cultivate them, so as to establish their own grassroots team belonging to Yuxu Palace.
In the next five days, Liang Ziyue and Zeng Zhilin systematically sorted out the information, talked to all the big and small leaders individually, and verified the personal information provided by these leaders through Liu Wanbao, Liu Xiaoliu, Li Fu and others. At the same time, by observing the daily drills and lives of the minions in the past few days, I have a general impression of them. In addition, I also learned as much as possible from Liu Wanbao and others about some of the outstanding or different minions in the cottage, as a reference index.
Early in the morning of the eleventh day of the twelfth month of the lunar calendar, Liu Xiaoliu and his personal soldiers, under the leadership of Qian Yuanshan, Tang Chao, Yang Xin, Zeng Zhilin and others, came to the open space in front of the Juyi Hall, and then summoned some minions who were wandering around, and under the command of Qian Yuanshan and others, they began to transform the empty field.
As white and gray lines were drawn on the ground, and timbers of different thicknesses were placed in designated positions, a facility called an obstacle course by these Dao masters appeared in front of the minions. Although everyone doesn't quite understand what this so-called training ground is for, there has been gossip among the minions, claiming that this so-called training ground is for the examination of the minions of the school. As for what kind of school examination method, those well-informed people can't answer it. However, this question did not last long to be answered.
The next day, on the morning of December 12, the gong sounded again. The minions came to the front line of the Hall of Justice as fast as they could, waiting for the new leader's lecture. Except for Cheng Fei, who was guarding the radio, all the Taoist priests of Yuxu Palace came to the front of the Juyi Hall. This time it was not conveyed through Liu Wanbao, Zhang Weixin personally announced to the minions on the side of Xiangxia: "Brothers, in order to carry forward the Five Tiger Village more haode, in order to give capable brothers a chance to show themselves, Poor Dao discussed with all the senior brothers and Liu Dangjia, and decided to hold a three-day quality assessment in three days. Anyone who performs well in the appraisal and ranks among the best, whether it is an ordinary soldier or a leader at all levels, may be given the opportunity to be promoted. For all leaders with poor performance and lower than the average score of the team under their jurisdiction, the poor juniors will give them short-term training, and after the training, they will take a make-up examination. If you pass the make-up examination, you will stay in your original position, and if you fail to pass the make-up examination, you will be demoted. Did you hear me clearly? ”,
The minions below behaved differently when they heard this, some were happy, some were eager to try, and some were sad and uncertain. However, no matter what mood he was in, he replied loudly, "I heard clearly", and at the same time, he also knew the purpose of the so-called training ground, and I am afraid that this assessment was carried out there.
Zhang Weixin then pointed to the training ground that had just been completed, and announced that the assessment items formulated by Qian Yuanshan, Zeng Zhilin and others according to the physical fitness assessment content of the army in their previous life and the actual conditions of reality were endurance running, obstacle running, and martial arts competition. And Tang Chao and Yang Xin demonstrated the obstacle training to the minions, so that they could have an intuitive understanding. At the same time, Zhang Weixin also announced that within three days, Tang Chao and Yang Xin would conduct demonstration drills at the training ground three times a day, hoping that all the brothers would study and practice hard, and strive to achieve good results in the assessment after three days.
Because it was related to their own vital interests, when Tang Chao and Yang Xin were demonstrating, all the minions gathered around and watched their movements with good eyes. Many minions who were blocked behind squeezed forward with all their might, and at the same time tried to step on their feet and stretch their necks to look in, and some of them even scolded each other and even used their hands in order to compete for positions. Fortunately, Liu Xiaoliu reacted quickly, and immediately took his own soldiers up to restrain and detain the two sides separately, so as not to cause major chaos. Later, under the dispatch of Zhang Weixin and others, all the minions were taken away and dispersed around the training ground in an orderly manner. This not only ensures that each team can fully see the situation in the field, but also avoids crowding with each other and maintains good order.
After Tang and Yang finished demonstrating, they began to let the minions on the field come up to try their hands. At the beginning, the minions pushed me, and no one wanted to come up and be the first person who might lose face. Later, Liu Wanbao personally named him, and let the two minions who were more clever and athletic in his mind try to get off the ground first, which can be regarded as a start. Slowly, more and more minions had the courage to try, and in the end, Liu Xiaoliu had to bring his own soldiers forward to ensure order in the training ground.
For the next three days, every day. The training enthusiasm of the minions was unprecedentedly high, and the training ground was never interrupted from morning to night. Tang Chao and Yang Xin are okay to say, they demonstrate three times a day, and they will leave when they are finished. Liu Xiaoliu and his own soldiers were not treated like this, and they worked from dawn to dark for three days, trying their best to maintain order on the training ground. Not only were they tired, but they also didn't have time to familiarize themselves with the content of the assessment like other soldiers, if it weren't for Zhang Weixin's promise that they would not have to participate in the assessment, still continue to serve as pro-soldiers, and would be promoted as appropriate, they would have complained a long time ago.
The three days passed very quickly, and on the 15th day of the twelfth month of the lunar calendar, except for a few minions who were on duty and stood guard, they would be assessed separately after leaving the sentry -- all the minions of Wuhuzhai gathered in front of the obstacle course, and with Zhang Weixin's order, they began the first day of assessment -- endurance running.
This assessment is very simple, all the minions are in a team, with commonly used weapons, running five laps around the vast cottage, with a total mileage of about ten miles, that is, the five-kilometer cross-country that Tang, Yang and others often ran in their previous lives. Although this assessment is the easiest, it is also the greatest test of the physical strength of the minions.
Soon after the first group of fifty minions set out, people began to fall behind. As the distance increases, so do the number of people left behind. If it weren't for the presence of the pro-soldiers led by Liu Xiaoliu, the finish line and the inspectors along the way, it is estimated that many people would find a place to stop in the middle of the way, wait for the physical strength of the soldiers to run a few laps before running together, pretending that they have run a long way. After running, a small number of minions with poor physical strength couldn't run anymore, so they had to take the initiative to raise their hands to show their abandonment, and there were many individual leaders. Zhang Weixin and the others did not reproach the minions who gave up, but just let them rest aside, and let Tang Chao, Yang Xin, Zeng Zhilin and others teach them how to adjust their bodies, so as not to be in danger due to excessive fatigue.
The assessment did not end until noon, and each team had those who gave up halfway or even fell to the ground due to physical exhaustion. Fortunately, with experienced former soldiers such as Tang Chao on the side, there was no life-threatening situation. After learning some ways to quickly recover their strength, all the minions dragged their tired bodies back to their respective barracks to rest in preparation for the next day's assessment.
The assessment on the second day was relatively complicated, and the jishu was more difficult. Some of the soldiers who had behaved very well the day before were clumsy in front of this kind of subject that required a certain amount of skill. Correspondingly, some minions who did not complete the assessment the day before showed good learning ability and short-distance sprints and explosiveness. There are still relatively few minions who can do both, and their abilities are relatively average, but this situation is also expected by Zhang Weixin and others.
The third day of assessment or selection is the most lively and attractive. In front of the Juyi Hall, next to the obstacle course, a ring was set up and a martial arts competition began. All minions can participate, and anyone who can win five consecutive matches in the ring will enter the final of Zuihou. The top three finalists will be rewarded with money and have the right to be promoted. Under the heavy reward, the minions are very motivated to fight. In the ring, you sing and I appear. Under the ring, everyone also shouted loudly, cheering for the side they supported.
The ring lasted a whole day from morning to night, and finally decided the top three and seven excellence awards. The first place is the original cottage, except for a few masters - excluding Wu Xinji, the waste - the most martial arts Liu Xiaoliu. He was able to achieve this result thanks to the help of Qingchen. Originally, Liu Wanbao didn't plan to let his Yizi participate in the competition, and the reason was not that he was afraid that he would lose face because of his poor grades. On the contrary, Liu Wanbao was very confident in his Yizi's martial arts, so he was afraid that once he won the victory, the Daoists of the Jade Void Palace would look at his face and directly give him a promotion in his position, causing dissatisfaction from others. Because Liu Xiaoliu and his pro-soldiers did not participate in the previous two assessments, it seems unfair to be promoted directly, and it is likely to attract gossip from others.
If it had been placed in the past, he Liu Wanbao and Liu Er would naturally not care about these, but now the situation is completely different, he no longer has the status of being below one person in the cottage and above hundreds of people. Those minions who have some skills, in order to strive for more development for themselves, will not let go of any opportunity to attack their old leaders. ,
Although Liu Xiaoliu was very unconvinced of his father-in-law's worries, he was helpless. Just when he was about to give up participating in the competition, Qingchen came out and said something for him. The reason why Qingchen is like this is because he is very satisfied with this young man who was saved by himself, and feels that he performed very well in blocking Wu Xinji's attack on Xing Zhai, and he should not waste his skills for a few possible gossip. So after Liu Wanbao expressed his worries, he stepped forward and defended Liu Xiaoliu: "Liu Dangjia's words are different. Although the little sixth brother did not participate in the first two assessments, he relied on his previous resistance to Wu Xinji's sudden attack and saved the credit of Liu Dangjia and Xing Dangjia's family, even if he did not participate in the competition, he should be rewarded as he deserved. ”
Qingchen's words were supported by Zhang Weixin and others, and Liu Wanbao no longer hindered Liu Xiaoliu's participation in the competition. And Liu Xiaoliu did not live up to Qingchen's expectations, and successfully won the first place in the martial arts competition. Qingchen was very happy about this, and even had the idea of asking his master Yu Xuzi to accept Liu Xiaoliu as an apprentice and be his own junior brother.
The second place in the competition was a bit surprising to everyone, it was actually one of the three surviving minions in the annihilation battle in the front hall of the Jade Void Palace. This person's name is Wang Baoshan, and he is only twenty-six years old this year, but he is only the head of a party in the cottage. Although he looks relatively thin, he has good martial arts and a clever mind. The results of the obstacle course assessment are quite good, and the endurance running results are also excellent. According to Tang Chao, this kid only watched the demonstration two or three times a few days ago, and he was already able to do a good job, and he was a talent. In fact, you don't need to look at these achievements, just looking at the fact that he can survive in the front hall of the hellish Jade Void Palace, and even escape with two companions, you know that this kid is by no means ordinary. According to Liu Wanbao and Liu Xiaoliu, this person used to be in Wuhuzhai because he was not very sociable and did not express himself, so he did not get enough attention from several masters, and only became a small leader.
The third is noble. This guy's name is quite interesting, probably because his parents want him to become a noble person, but he didn't want to be a bandit now. Gao Gui is thirty-one years old this year, and he is a leader with a relatively high position, and he used to manage dozens of people in the cottage, so he can be regarded as a middle-level manager. This person thought that he might not be able to compare with Liu Xiaoliu, but he still won the second place, but he didn't expect to lose under Wang Baoshan, who was not looked at by him, and he was really a little unconvinced. However, in front of the people of the Jade Void Palace, although they were not angry in their hearts, they did not dare to show it. After all, this competition is fair competition, whoever has the ability is the winner, and the previous position cannot add points to himself.
The situation of the next seven excellence awards is similar, there are both leaders and ordinary minions, and the Jade Void Palace is not affected by the previous identities of these people, and they all give corresponding material rewards. As for the promotion in the position, it can only be determined after a comprehensive comparison of all the assessment results.
After a day of statistics and the compilation of the reorganization of the minions, the people of the Yuxu Palace and Liu Wanbao came up with Zuihou's plan after careful and meticulous research. Subsequently, Liu Wanbao was the main leader, and there was collusion and exchange of ideas with those leaders who would be demoted, so as not to cause unnecessary trouble due to the sudden announcement. Although those junior leaders are 10,000 unwilling to be demoted, they can't say a reason to support themselves. After all, this is fair competition, and you are not taking sides with anyone.
On the evening of the 19th day of the twelfth month of the lunar calendar, Zhang Weixin and others reported the situation in the cottage to the Yuxu Palace through the radio. After consultation, Zhang Weixin's suggestion was agreed, and it was decided that two days later, that is, on December 21, Wang Kunjun and other members of the committee who stayed in the Yuxu Palace and the heads of various functional groups would go to Wuhu Village, and Wang Kunjun would announce the reorganization of the minions and the appointment of a new leader.
This suggestion, ostensibly, is for the people in charge to show their faces in front of the minions, so that they know that they still have many leaders, so as to facilitate future management. In essence, Zhang Weixin, who made this suggestion, had some selfish intentions. As a staunch supporter of Wang Kunjun and one of the core figures of the Dongshan faction, he still attaches great importance to this team of 300 people. In his eyes, as long as this small team is mastered, it will definitely become one of the important guarantees for the team's future survival. Its role is no less than that of Zhong Yuanwai and Hu Zhixian, no less than the hundreds of thousands of gold and silver, and even no less than any traverser. Faced with the reality that there are small groups of different factions in the crossing team, and in the face of the fact that the Xigu faction is all soldiers and has an innate advantage in leading troops, Zhang Weixin had to think about his small group first. He hoped that through this way of issuing orders and appointing leaders, Wang Kunjun would establish an authoritative image and status in the minds of all the minions, increase the weight for the Dongshan faction to control this small team, and also strive for more capital for the future leadership of the team.
Of course, Zhang Weixin also clearly knows that the team now needs all members to work together, and everyone should do their best to help the team overcome all kinds of difficulties. In the current situation, if he makes a mistake in his operation, causing other members to become dissatisfied and causing a split in the team, the team members may die without a place to be buried. So he did it very cleverly this time, but when he reported, he naturally mentioned it casually, and the other members of the committee and the heads of the functional groups did not take it seriously, and they were all immersed in the joy of owning this team and this cottage.
solved the biggest thing for the team at present, and Zhang Weixin and others, who were in Wuhu Village, were finally able to breathe a sigh of relief. This evening, I can finally relax a little, go have a drink with Liu Wanbao, and chat about idle days. The result of relaxation is conceivable, except for Zeng Zhilin, Yang Xin and Cheng Fei, who were on duty that night, everyone else drank and staggered, and slept until three o'clock in the morning the next day.
