Chapter 147: It's Your Plan
Inside Rodge's office.
Xiao Ran sat opposite Luo Ji very casually, and Chen An and Wei Yun sat next to him, looking a little restrained.
Don't look at Xiao Ran who doesn't care, but in fact, he has been looking at Luo Ji all the time.
In the previous life, Xiao Ran was just an insignificant little person, and he was not even qualified to meet a big man like Luo Ji, even if he was reborn and had strong combat power, but when facing Luo Ji, he still had some jealousy in his heart.
It's not that I'm afraid of how strong Luo Ji is, but I'm afraid of Luo Ji's strong organizational ability and government affairs handling ability.
These two abilities can't increase one's combat power, but they can make the official Los Angeles survivor base burst into extremely terrifying combat power.
"Mr. Xiao Ran, we finally met."
Luo Ji had a gentle smile on his face, and his expression was calm and calm, as if everything was under his control.
Xiao Ran didn't like this feeling very much, because he had always been in control of the situation and the initiative.
"Administrative Luo Ji, if you have anything, just say it, I have other things to do."
Luo Ji was not angry and said, "Okay, since you have other arrangements, then I'll make a long story short." I'm going to set up a convoy of people whose mission is to clear the city's roads, restore traffic, and exchange supplies with other human survivors or provide them with some help, what do you think? β
"Not good."
Xiao Ran didn't save any face for Luo Ji, "Your plan is probably going bankrupt." β
"Why?"
Luo Ji's face changed slightly, but he didn't have a seizure, but asked patiently.
Xiao Ran said: "Because your heart is not ruthless enough." β
"Not ruthless enough?"
Luo Ji showed surprise, "Why should I be ruthless? When I let the convoy go out with supplies, I want to exchange supplies with others and help them, do I want to kill everyone who is willing to exchange supplies with us? β
Xiao Ran didn't answer this question directly, but asked, "If this convoy encounters an injured, weak, and comatose human survivor while going out, will you save it or not?" β
"Save! Of course it must be saved! β
"Okay, save today, tomorrow you will meet more people in need of help, what are you going to do? Are they all saved? After you save them, these people are your burden, you can't drive them away, you have to support them. There is nothing wrong with one or two, but as long as the convoy is still there, many survivors in need of help will be brought back every day, and the number of these people is increasing, what are you going to do? β
Luo Ji pondered for a few seconds and said, "I can save them, but they will also have to contribute after they recover, and no one in our place can get something for nothing." β
Xiao Ran sneered and shook his head, "Okay, just when the number of survivors you accept every day is not large, it will not exceed your tolerance limit, and these people are willing to obey orders and contribute to your base, then if your convoy encounters a large number of human survivors outside, they have not eaten for many days, and when you see so many supplies in the convoy, you come up and grab them, what are you going to do?" β
"Of course I can't let them rob it, I will arrange enough security personnel in the convoy, and if they are not willing to come back with the convoy, then leave them a small amount of supplies, as long as they don't starve to death."
Luo Ji also considered this and chose a compromise approach.
Xiao Ran shook his head again, "If you do this, then your convoy will soon encounter more survivors in need of help, and they will rob with impunity, and few people are willing to follow the convoy back, and if you are unlucky, your convoy may not even come back." β
"How is this possible?"
Luo Ji shook his head, expressing complete disbelief.
Xiao Ran didn't bother to explain too much, because the limit of human ugliness would be far beyond people's imagination.
Although Luo Ji has a strong ability in organization and administration, after the end comes, he has not seen those tragic things with his own eyes, and he does not have a clear understanding of the ugliness of human nature, and even takes it for granted that the human survivors outside still maintain a high enough moral level as before the disaster came, and can restrain the evil thoughts in his heart well, so he has such a naΓ―ve idea.
"If you don't believe what I say, then you can give it a try, but I still advise you to give up this unrealistic idea, if you must do it, then you have to be ruthless, always remember that your convoy only has two purposes, one is to exchange materials, and the other is to recruit talents. This is a deal, not an aid, even if someone dies in front of you, you can't move any compassion, only in this way can you save more people. β
This time it was Roji's turn not to speak.
Although he hadn't experienced those human tragedies, he had heard some of them more or less, and now that he heard Xiao Ran's analysis, he suddenly felt that his previous thoughts seemed to be really wrong.
In the end times, blindly helping others will not only fail to save others, but will also kill yourself.
The more chaotic it is, the more it is necessary to formulate strict rules, make those who have the intention to fish in troubled waters pay the price, and use the fastest way and thunder means to deter them, so that his ideas can be better implemented.
After thinking seriously for a long time, Luo Ji got up and looked at Xiao Ran with a sincere face.
"Mr. Xiao Ran, thank you for your suggestion, I think my plan does need some modifications. But this matter is really not easy to do, if Mr. Xiao Ran is willing to come over to help......"
"Stop! Stop! β
Without waiting for Luo Ji to finish speaking, Xiao Ran refused.
He told Luo Ji this, just because he didn't want Luo Ji to take a detour with the official survivor base in Los Angeles and let them hold on for a while longer, instead of using this way as the basis for his promotion.
He hoarded so many supplies in the bomb shelter that he couldn't use them up for a few years, and he was still free, doing whatever he wanted, why did he come here to obey Luo Ji's command?
"Administrator Rodge, I just said some of my suggestions, and I don't have any intention of joining the team, let alone joining your town hall, so you don't need to say anything more."
Luo Ji showed disappointment, although he only had a brief chat with Xiao Ran, he had already determined that Xiao Ran was a rare talent.
Especially Xiao Ran's calm and rational attitude, which is definitely what he lacks now.
Managing such a large survivor base in the apocalypse cannot rely solely on organizational and administrative skills, but also requires a firm enough mind and appropriate cold-bloodedness.
In this regard, Xiao Ran can complement him, as long as Xiao Ran is willing to join, it will definitely make the survivor base have a better development, but unfortunately, Xiao Ran does not agree and has no interest.
