Chapter 569: Teaming Up
Yang Jian didn't want to do anything to Jiang Shangbai at the headquarters, he was just testing the attitude of the headquarters and showing his determination.
The purpose is to see which side the headquarters will be on.
If Cao Yanhua is on Jiang Shangbai's side and chooses to isolate himself, then Yang Jian will not hesitate to choose to resign and go home, on the contrary, if Cao Yanhua chooses to stand on his side, then he can do it to the circle of friends without any scruples.
I believe that Cao Yanhua can also understand this.
No one would allow a bunch of enemies to be out there and target them at any time.
What's more, Cao Yanhua knows Yang Jian's temper, so there is no compromise, tolerance, reconciliation or the like between the two.
The short-lived impulse was quickly quelled.
The people who attended the meeting were almost all there.
In addition to Cao Yanhua and Wang Xiaoming, who were in charge of the content of this meeting, there were also the main members who participated in the previous ghost painting incident, Li Jun, Chen Yi, Guo Fan, and Zhong Shan...... Su Fan, Liu San.
The people who attended the meeting last time were still present this time, such as Feng Quan, Cao Yang, and the stranger who couldn't remember what he looked like, Li Leping.
There are a few more newcomers this time, and they are the few people who survived the last training base, Zhang Lei, Huang Ziya, and the college student Wang Jiang.
Of course, the old man who survived to the present during the Republic of China was also present when Yang Jian was most jealous.
The number of people can be said to be even higher than last time.
Yang Jian even found an inconspicuous bear child in the crowd.
Xiong Wenwen?
The last time I was at Caesar Hotel, I had the experience of cooperating with this bear child, his ghost is very special, he can predict the future for about ten minutes, and he plays a very important role in dealing with supernatural events.
Counting Jiang Shangbai and a few others.
The number of ghost riders in the entire conference room has reached a staggering fifty, and most importantly, most of these people are not city leaders.
In other words, there are still many people who did not attend this meeting.
"There are more people than last time, Brother Leg, there won't be any big incidents, haven't you received any inside information recently?" Feng Quan on the side asked in a suppressed voice.
Yang Jian shook his head and said: "I don't know, although I have been in this city for a while, I have paid little attention to the news from the headquarters, what about you? What have you been busy with lately? It seems that you have been away for a while." ”
"Of course I went on a business trip and almost couldn't come back, what about you?" Feng Quan's face was not very good, and he seemed to have experienced a rather bad incident.
"Don't you know all about it? A few days after surviving from the hands of the ghost, there was a ghost painting incident, and yesterday I just brought out a ghost painting in a school, although it didn't die there, but it was also a big risk, and that painting was not easy to deal with. Yang Jian said in a low voice.
"I don't know how many meetings like this will take place, maybe we won't see each other next time. Feng Quan sighed.
Everyone doesn't have an easy life, and they may die at any point.
Yang Jian's eyes moved slightly: "So we can't consume it like this and the supernatural events that continue to appear, we can't afford it, we have to find a breakthrough, otherwise if we solve the supernatural events one by one, we will die sooner or later." ”
"Oh, Yang Jian, have you discovered anything lately?" Zhang Lei on the other side leaned over and asked.
"There's a little bit of an uncertain clue that needs to be taken a risk. Yang Jian shook his head slightly: "Maybe it's an opportunity, but maybe I'm thinking too much." ”
A stiff smile squeezed out of Feng Quan's ugly face: "Forget it, don't think about it yet, by the way, have you been in contact with Tong Qian recently? She should have come here around the same time as us, but she has never seen her, and she didn't participate in this meeting, and she couldn't be contacted when she was looking for help on a business trip last time." ”
Tong Qian?
Yang Jian was reminded like this and immediately remembered.
Tong Qian also came here, but after looking at the entire conference room, she didn't see her present, according to the current situation, it is impossible for the headquarters not to contact Tong Qian.
And Tong Qian is no longer an ordinary ghost handler.
Having mastered two grimaces and dying at the same time, she has become the top group of existences.
"I don't know, I haven't seen her all this time. Yang Jian told the truth.
"Will it ...... Dead?" Feng Quan guessed.
Yang Jian immediately said: "Impossible, if you want to kill Tong Qian, it is very difficult, needless to say ordinary people, one will die when they meet, and supernatural events are possible, but her survival rate is far better than that of ordinary people who control two ghosts, so the possibility of death is not great, and the possibility of her ghost recovery is even smaller." ”
No one knows Tong Qian's particularity better than himself, after all, he is an outlier created by himself according to the method on the skin paper.
"It seems that we have to take some time to look around, and there are few people I know who are alive, so I can't just ignore it. Feng Quan groaned.
Yang Jian nodded and said, "It makes sense, I'll pay attention to this matter." ”
As he spoke, the meeting was almost about to begin.
At this time, Liu Xiaoyu, who was behind him, suddenly handed over a piece of information: "Yang Jian, this is the information of this meeting, you can take a look first." ”
"Huh, you're still here?" Yang said in surprise.
Liu Xiaoyu suddenly looked at him strangely: "This is not your home, why can't I be here?"
"What about mine, why don't I have it?" asked Zhang Lei on the side.
"I'm Yang Jian's operator, and I'm not responsible for you. Liu Xiaoyu rolled his eyes.
"Forehead ......" Zhang Lei said.
It seems to make sense.
Yang Jian flipped through the information, and there were a few big black characters written on it: Captain Yang Jian (to be selected)
"It's the captain's plan. Feng Quan glanced at it and said with some surprise.
"Why don't you have it?" Yang Jian looked at it, and he didn't get this information in his hand.
Feng Quan's face was a little weirdly embarrassed: "I don't know." ”
He used to be the first person in charge of Dachang City, and almost died in Huanggang Village, and the second person in charge was Zhou Zheng, who died in the ghost knocking on the door. The third person in charge (temporary deputy) is Zhao Kaiming, who died in the starvation ghost incident, and the fourth is Yang Jian.
According to qualifications, Feng Quan should be the oldest.
Yang Jian looked at the others at the conference table.
There are also many people who have won the captaincy.
Li Jun, Jiang Shangbai, Liu San, Li Leping...... Cao Yang.
At this time, Cao Yanhua, who is the deputy minister, spoke: "I think some of you have already got the information in your hands, this meeting is mainly because of two things, the first thing is to thoroughly confirm the list of candidates for the captain's plan, and the second thing is to discuss how to deal with the ghost painting incident." ”
"Through recent discussions, the person who currently has the information in his hands has been determined to be the captain candidate, if you have no opinions, then this list should not make major changes. ”
"Wait. ”
At this time, a person named Xu Yiping said with a cold face: "I want to know how the headquarters determines the captain of so many people? It's not that I can't trust you Cao Yanhua, but this matter must have a reason, otherwise I won't agree to this matter." ”
Many people didn't speak, but their eyes stayed on Cao Yanhua.
The captain's plan was not agreed upon by the majority of the people, and it was completely set up in the headquarters, so it was difficult to convince others.
But Cao Yanhua also has his own considerations.
If this plan is to be agreed by the majority of the people, then it is not known how many conflicts will be caused and how many conflicts will be caused, so internal determination is the best way.
Cao Yanhua said: "Xu Yiping, you know that you have opinions, and there must be more than one person who has opinions, if everyone needs a reason, then this reason should be enough." ”
After speaking, he gestured to the staff.
"Turn the projector on. ”
Soon, a list was projected at the conference table.
The list contains almost everyone's names, and each person's name has a corresponding score behind it, and the first place is actually Yang Jian.
His rating was quite a cut above the second place.
"Each of you has a rating within the HQ that is evaluated based on the paranormal events you solve. Cao Yanhua said solemnly: "You can take a look at the ratings of each captain candidate, without exception, all of them are the people with the highest ratings, Xu Yiping, your rating is twenty-six, and the captain candidate is far from your turn." ”
As soon as this score chart came out, many people frowned.
Cao Yanhua continued: "Take Yang Jian, who ranked first in the rating, as an example. ”
After speaking, the slide jumped and entered the next picture, which is a comprehensive archive of Yang Jian.
"Yang Jian, solved the C-level, headless ghost shadow incident, B-level Huanggang Village ghost coffin incident, A-level, human head balloon incident. Also, the S-class starving ghost incident, and the S-class ghost errand incident saved people twice. Recently, I have dealt with the ghost painting incident. ”
"The events he experienced were given a corresponding score according to the internal evaluation criteria, which are very strict and will fluctuate accordingly according to the actual situation, you don't need to question it. ”
Yang Jian couldn't help but be stunned when he saw his comprehensive information displayed in front of everyone like this.
However, his rating is indeed a bit unreasonable.
Because according to this scoring standard, Yang Jian does not have one of the candidates to become the captain, and it is completely the S-level starving ghost incident that adds points, and just one incident adds 100 points, that is, this percentage far exceeds the second place by a large margin.
Cao Yanhua continued: "If you still have doubts, you might as well roughly estimate your score according to the scoring criteria, there is not much difference between the left and right, and see if you can exceed a few captain candidates, if not, then please withdraw your own opinions and agree with this list." ”
"If there really are more than a few candidates for captain who can say it in front of so many people, I will personally give you a reasonable explanation. ”
"I'll give you ten minutes to evaluate yourself, and if you don't have any opinion after ten minutes, then the captain's plan is finalized, and the ghost painting incident will be discussed below. ”
Cao Yanhua didn't say anything at length, but announced the list of candidates for the captain's plan in a very concise and quick way, and then the second meeting was about to be held.
Originally, the captain's plan was predetermined, there was no vote, and no one's opinion was sought.
It is only for the sake of fairness and to avoid contradictions that this time there is a special explanation.
The conference room was a lot quieter at the moment, and many people secretly evaluated, and then shook their heads and said that their experience was indeed not enough to be a candidate for captain.
There are also some people who feel that it doesn't matter, that the captain is not a captain is a fart, that they don't know how long they can live, and that they want a promotion and a raise? Joining the headquarters by themselves is just a way to survive, and they are not really willing to work hard.
"I kind of understand why I wasn't on the shortlist. Feng Quan looked at his ranking, and it was miserable.
He also participated in the ghost coffin incident, and if he followed the above judging criteria, he could only get a comfort point.
After that, he was trapped in the ghost coffin for more than two months, during which the person in charge of Dachang City was replaced, and naturally there was no merit.
In the end, the human head balloon incident and Yang Jian's action rubbed a little bit, as well as these two business trips.
But it doesn't add up enough to solve an A-level supernatural event, not to mention that Yang Jian has one more S-level supernatural event than others.
Especially when that event was completed alone, no one can compare with this score.
"No wonder Cao Yanhua wants me to take the initiative to resign as the captain. Yang Jian's eyes narrowed slightly: "My score is so high, if I can't choose the captain, then no one else wants to be selected, this captain plan will become a joke, and now Cao Yanhua uses me as an example to convince the public." ”
But it doesn't matter....... Whether you become a captain or join the headquarters, it's just to survive better and improve your chances of survival. ”
"Other than that, nothing makes sense. ”
Yang Jian looked at Jiang Shangbai with some curiosity.
This guy stays local all day, why is the score so high?
"His score should be brushed out by people in the circle of friends, and the credit for many events is attributed to him, in order to win a captain. Yang Jian thought for a moment and guessed in his heart.
"Li Jun also has a problem, he has always been Wang Xiaoming's bodyguard before, and it stands to reason that he doesn't have the score to become a captain...... Is it predetermined?"
"Cao Yang, that guy is also the captain?"
After thinking about it, he somewhat understood what was going on with the captain he was doing.
Behind every captain there is a representative.
For example, Jiang Shangbai is behind the circle of friends, a group of big capitalists.
Li Jun, the representative behind it is also obvious.
Cao Yang: Cao Yanhua is also surnamed Cao, maybe he is a relative or a second generation.
Liu San..... I don't know it deeply, and it may be inconspicuous in this city, but it may be a huge force outside.
Only himself, who is a serious sling, is not a starving ghost incident, and now it is estimated that it is also a trick on the conference table, listen to it.
The water here is very deep.
Yang Jian sighed in his heart, sure enough, as long as people live and still have a breath, what power and interests do they have to play, no wonder Cao Yanhua wanted to persuade himself to give up the captain candidate at that time.
I didn't think about it so much at the time, but now that I think about it, this thing is really not suitable for me, and Cao Yanhua didn't cheat himself.
Now I am like occupying the pit and not, it is superfluous, after all, I belong to the kind where one person is full and the whole family is not hungry, and it is enough to guard a Dachang City.
"This captain shouldn't have asked for it. ”
Yang Jian looked at this information, which wrote in detail the responsibilities, obligations, and of course powers after becoming the captain.
But he wasn't interested, because he didn't join the headquarters for these things.
"If you don't find another time to make another deal with Cao Yanhua, this place should be quite valuable. He wondered if he should trade for some practical benefits.
At this time, Zhang Lei leaned over and said: "Yang Jian, I heard from others just now that you can recruit team members if you become the captain, or I will join your team? ”
"I'm going to team up too. Huang Ziya also came over, for fear of being one step late.
Feng Quan also said: "Count me in." ”
Yang Jian just thought about withdrawing this captain's seat, and when he heard them say this, he had to reconsider.
Of course, it is advantageous to team up to deal with supernatural events, one more person has more strength, at least the ghosts who play a number of ghosts like ghosts will not be so passive, and their abilities can also complement each other.
Of course, there are downsides to teaming up.
If something goes wrong with one member, you're not just dealing with a ghost, but the danger increases.
Therefore, the formation of a team must be extremely cautious, and the situation of pig teammates must not appear.
"Don't rush this matter, let me think. Yang Jian did not refuse, nor did he agree.
However, Zhang Lei and Huang Ziya seemed very anxious, they had seen Yang Jian's ability, and they could survive the death-bound ghost incident, if they don't hold this thigh now, how long will they wait?
"Then you must give priority to me, you know my ability. Zhang Lei said very earnestly.
Huang Ziya said: "Although I am a little worse, but I am a woman, don't you want to have more women in the team? And I execute very well, I will never be the kind of person who makes mistakes, you have known this." ”
"I think the two of them are very ordinary, if you want to pull teammates, you can consider Tong Qian. Feng Quan suggested.
"Yang Jian, I heard everything you said. ”
At this time, Xiong Wenwen came over and said loudly: "If you let me join your team, I will introduce my mother to you, my mother is very beautiful, and many people want to chase my mother, but they are scared away by me." ”
Many people looked at him in surprise when they heard Xiong Wenwen's words.
In order to hug the thighs, mom doesn't want it?
"When you say that, I suddenly feel like I'm a cub. Yang Jian said.
"Damn, you guy dare to take advantage of me?" Xiong Wenwen immediately scolded: "Believe it or not, I peed on your head while you were sleeping?"
"I don't believe it, if you wake up your mother, you're going to get beaten. Yang Jian said.
"My mother will be woken up like this?" Xiong Wenwen didn't react for a while.
Zhang Lei and Huang Ziya on the side couldn't help laughing, as adults, they understood as soon as they heard it, and Yang Jian took advantage of Xiong Wenwen again.
Xiong Wenwen didn't know what was going on, but judging from the laughter of several people next to him, it was definitely not a good thing.
"Believe it or not, I spit on you. He said angrily.
Yang Jian nodded, "I believe this." ”
When Jiang Shangbai saw this scene, his face turned dark again, what he cared about was not that Yang Jian became the captain, but that there were so many people willing to team up with Yang Jian at the beginning, once this team was really formed, it would not be Yang Jian alone who would have to deal with it, it was a group of people.
The reason why the circle of friends didn't take Yang Jian in their eyes was not because he was single, and he didn't need so many scruples to kill him.
"Forget about the two newcomers, if Feng Quan and Xiong Wenwen join his team, then Yang Jian will really be difficult to handle. Jiang Shangbai also co-opted Xiong Wenwen with people in his circle of friends.
This kid's abilities are so special that it's impossible not to worry about them.
It's just that something went wrong halfway, and the wrong choice of the wooing object made Xiong Wenwen think that he was thinking about his beautiful single mother, and things turned yellow.
"When the time comes, then the captain's plan is finalized, Xu Yiping, what about you? Do you have any opinions?"
Xu Yiping was silent for a moment and said, "I have no opinion on the captain's plan. ”
"Su Fan, what about you?"
Su Fan said calmly: "I'm not interested, you can do whatever you want." ”
"Zhong Shan, what do you say?"
Zhong Shan shrugged his shoulders: "What is there to say, it is not as good as others, and it is natural that you can't be the captain." ”
Cao Yanhua nodded tiredly: "Very good, since everyone has no opinions, then this matter will end here, and this matter will not be discussed in the future." Here's the main takeaway. ”
At this time, the slide jumps.
"The ghost painting incident. ”
A few big words appeared on the screen.
For Cao Yanhua, the captain's plan is just a general notice, and it will not be deliberately discussed in the meeting, and the time that occupies more than ten minutes is already a long time, and the real task this time is this ghost painting incident that has emerged in recent days.
As a supernatural event defined as S-level by foreign countries, Cao Yanhua did not dare to be sloppy and careless, and it must be resolved as soon as possible.
If this matter is not resolved for a day, he will not be at ease for a day, and many things will not be able to be carried out according to the previous plan.
Seeing the four words on the screen, the discussion on the conference table was much less.
The atmosphere gradually became a little more solemn.
These four words are like a strange power, which makes people really unable to relax.
