In the 'Alliance Defense Force', which symbolizes the most powerful official armed organ of the galaxy, it has emerged in just a few months of service, and it is a good thing for the vast majority of young people from primitive and humble backgrounds, and young and vigorous young people of interstellar low-level civilizations.

Some ambitious people may even be willing to pay with their lives.

But for Zhang Chujiu, who only wants to live a 5-year military career safely and quietly, evolve silently, and one day have unparalleled strength, it is not a good thing.

However, he understood very well the purpose of Qiao Lanji's impatience to push himself out, so he could only accept it reluctantly.

However, after the team finished deliberating, the interstellar video projections all disappeared, and Ling Jianhong was also instructed by Qiao Lanji to step back and do things, Zhang Chujiu still couldn't help but say sarcastically: "My lord, it seems that although your team is sound, it is not easy to use."

Otherwise, there is no need to rush to put my 'catfish' into the 'tank'. ”

"What does this mean?" Qiao Lanji was stunned for a moment, and asked as if she didn't understand.

Zhang Chujiu pursed his lips and explained: "The catfish effect is a metaphor for our blue star.

In ancient times, the Norwegians in the west of Blue Star were very fond of eating sardines, but did not like dead ones, so there was a big difference in the price of dead fish and live fish.

In the search for profit, the fishermen began to try every possible way to get the sardines back to the fishing port alive, but at that time, the level of civilization was extremely backward, and despite all the efforts, most of the sardines would still suffocate in the middle of the way.

But there is a fishing boat, but it always allows most of the sardines to return to port alive.

It's just that the captain has been strictly telling this method of making money, and the mystery was not revealed until his death.

It turned out that every time the captain went out to sea, he would put a catfish in the tank of the fishing boat.

When a catfish enters an unfamiliar environment, it will swim around all the time, and the stirring sardines will also rush left and right, and the problem of lack of oxygen will be solved.

For the "fisherman", the "catfish" is a means of motivation and stimulation.

If your team is fine, why rush to put my 'catfish' in the fish tank.

And the initiative to ambiguously imply that the Lan Po Shijian incident was planned by you, and the arrangement for me to implement it is even more deterrent, which shows that you have control over the team members..."

"That's enough, Corporal Zhang," Qiao Lanji interrupted Zhang Chujiu's words with an expressionless face: "The guy who is too smart, likes to speculate about the intentions of his boss, and speaks out, is not very likable." ”

Zhang Chujiu was silent for a while and said, "My lord, I said what I said just now, I hope you don't think of me as a nerd who only has a mind and doesn't understand scheming.

When you openly hinted that Lan Po Shijian's death was your own handiwork, if the news spread, Lan Po Shijian's comrades would be in the way of your noble status, and even if they were suspicious, they would not be able to retaliate rashly.

But for me, an accomplice who has no background and comes from an interstellar low-level civilization, they don't have any scruples.

It's risking my life to test your team's unity and the intensity of the opposing side's reaction.

From the perspective of your own interests, it is perfectly understandable to make such a choice.

But we have an ancient philosophical saying in Lanxing, 'The king regards the minister as a sibling, the minister regards the king as the heart, the king regards the minister as a dog and a horse, the minister regards the king as a countryman, the king regards the minister as a mustard, and the minister regards the king as an enemy." ’。

If you always treat your subordinates with this kind of pure and profit-first attitude, you will definitely not get sincere support. ”

Qiao Lanji was stunned for a long time when she heard this, and muttered with a wry smile: "Corporal Zhang, I listened to your words, and I realized that I had pushed you to the forefront, and there were so many potential effects.

But you have too many eyes.

I stuffed you into my team at the first time I was about to skip the promotion, which was a bit of the 'catfish effect' intention, but the other intentions were really gone. ”

Zhang Chujiu observed the subtle changes in Qiao Lanji's expression, and found that she was not lying, so he frowned and said, "If that's the case, then I can't blame you."

But hopefully you'll make decisions similar to those related to me in the future. Can you talk to me about it. ”

Qiao Lanji waved her hand and said, "There is no problem with this.

But from those words just now, it can be seen that you have the potential to be a conspirator.

Although the overflowing light has a strong ability to analyze and judge, it is not good to talk about dark and bottomless conspiracies.

You give people a different feeling, you are bold, you have a complex mind, and you think about problems completely based on interests..."

"No, no, no," without waiting for Qiao Lanji to finish speaking, Zhang Chujiu hurriedly denied: "My lord, I'm not the kind of person with a dark psychology.

It's just that I pay special attention to my own safety, so when I encounter a life-threatening problem, I just think more deeply and more. ”

Qiao Lanji rolled her eyelids when she heard this and said, "Okay, it doesn't matter if you deny it, after all, no one wants to admit that he is a sinister character."

Anyway, you have now branded me and contributed to me, and it is difficult for you not to sell your life when you encounter things. After that, he waved his hand and said, "Go out, I'm going to cultivate." ”

The situation is stronger than people, Zhang Chujiu could only sigh secretly when he heard this, and after giving a military salute, he turned around and left the office.

As soon as he went out, he saw a single desk and office chair set up in the narrow passage outside the door, which could only accommodate two or three people walking side by side.

Seeing Zhang Chujiu appearing, Ling Jianhong next to him pointed to the desk and said, "Corporal Zhang, according to the rules, as an accompanying secretary, you must work outside the chief officer's office to facilitate her summoning at any time."

This is your new location.

When I get back to the Chizhou base, I'll re-seat you outside your office, so please come along. ”

Zhang Chujiu knew that he must not be able to resist Ling Jianhong's meaning, so he could only walk over helplessly, and said with a dry smile: "Room chief, we are now sailing in the vast universe.

You can find a set of office facilities like this, such a small one, there is a real way. ”

"It's nothing," Ling Jianhong said lightly: "Although the adults have not appointed the accompanying secretary, I have already made the relevant preparations." ”

Zhang Chujiu showed a sudden expression when he heard this, "So that's the case."

So what exactly is my job now?"

"As the accompanying secretary," Ling Jianhong said, "only adults are qualified to tell you to do things."

So in a sense, you alone and the entire secretary's office are parallel units and no longer under my jurisdiction. ”

Hearing that the new position had such benefits, Zhang Chujiu's eyes lit up, after all, there could be one less oppressor above his head.

"Well, I'll wait for your orders. He said with a smile, and after seeing Ling Jianhong leave, he sat down idlely, thinking that it was impossible for Qiao Lanji to tell himself to do things in a short period of time after she started cultivating, so he also closed his eyes and entered meditation.
