Chapter 270: "Start Work!"_2
"No way..."
Biaozi's serious expression faded slightly, as he awkwardly scratched his head and said, "I plan to personally lead them through all the ordinary missions first, then attempt the extreme missions."
"The risks of extreme missions are relatively high, be careful. How's the expansion going?"
"According to Master Mang's instructions, each squad is expanded by 20 people. Currently, a batch of people has been preliminarily selected. The rest are planned to undergo a second round of selection in the Combat Training Virtual Space, expected to be completed today, then train with us within this month."
"Mm."
Chen Mang nodded, paused for a moment, then lightly patted Biaozi's shoulder and gently said, "Biaozi, although you're the captain of the first team, I have high hopes for you. I've always seen you as the main team leader."
"Out of so many people, you're the one I have the highest regard for."
"Don't always focus only on your team members, also pay attention to the members of the second and third teams, the gap has already widened a bit."
"Show some results, the position of the third-in-command on the Fixed Star train has always been reserved for you, just waiting to be officially given to you."
"Yes!"
Biaozi's eyes were slightly red as he hoarsely shouted out loud.
"Alright, off you go."
...
"Hmm..."
Chen Mang looked at Biaozi's departing figure, inwardly pondering, it seemed this shot of adrenaline was pretty effective, suddenly full of motivation.
Biaozi has potential.
Biaozi's talent isn't great; I've watched him attempt challenges several times, really dying time and again, but in the end, he manages to pass. Whether it's tenacity or guts, it's first-rate.
Also has some management experience, not as good as Old Pig, but enough for a squad captain.
He's quite suitable as a semi-all-round talent.
In fact, only Biaozi can take on the main team leader role. Zhang Damei is strong, but lacks decisiveness, suitable for executing orders. As for the third team's captain... hmm, no strong impression, just leave it at that.
Biaozi has indeed made some achievements and has prestige, those thugs respect Biaozi.
"Train Captain."
At this moment—
Ai got off the train, somewhat hesitantly speaking, "You seem to be in a good mood now?"
"It's alright."
"Um, you're not mad at me anymore?"
"I wasn't mad at you in the first place." Chen Mang shook his head, "It's just a can of cola, I can sleep tonight, and I can sleep tomorrow, there will always be a chance, what's more, 1 unit of Level 10 Iron Ore, equals 10 billion units of iron ore, the probability of obtaining it from a dream is inherently very small."
"Getting it is lucky, not getting it is also alright."
"But Ai, why are there still only 2 Cosmic Receivers in compartment 12? Are there so many materials that it's difficult to manufacture?"
"I have very high expectations for you."
"I hope you can complete manufacturing all the Cosmic Receivers within this month. Although you're just a Train Assistance AI, to me, you're my friend, family."
"Fri... Friend."
Ai was slightly taken aback, then slightly teary-eyed, hoarsely said, "Train Captain, I'll go back to work right away!"
"Go on then."
...
After Ai left, Old Pig walked over, holding a book report.
"Master Mang, there's something that I need to report, here is the History of Train Development that I wrote over this period, the progress on the school's side is very smooth, many students want to meet Master Mang up close, Teacher Qiu asked me to apply, to see if Master Mang can meet them."
"No need."
Chen Mang shook his head, "It's not time for a visit yet, after theoretical knowledge teaching is completed, it's about time to start hands-on practice, those who need to fight will fight, those who need to manage will manage."
"Old Pig."
"You're the earliest to follow me."
"On the Fixed Star, the person I trust the most is you, my number one confidant."
"With over 6000 people on the train, you need to further perfect the management system. This month is just the gap period, you can perfect the internal management of the train within this month."
"..."
Most trusted person...
Old Pig's eyes turned slightly red, then the face, which originally had a worldly look, nodded heavily, "Rest assured, Master Mang, with me here, nothing will go awry inside the Fixed Star!"
At this moment.
Mr. Li also walked over towards this direction.
"Alright, Old Pig, you go ahead and get busy. "
"Master Mang." Mr. Li looked at the departing back of Old Pig, then began to report, "I..."
"Mr. Li."
Chen Mang looked at Mr. Li calmly, "I've heard about you from Old Pig, you're one of the first to follow the Fixed Star, I've noticed you from the beginning, and your talent hasn't let me down."
"On the train, you're the person I'm most looking forward to."
"Keep maintaining the accounts over in Neon City."
"Also, I hope you can fully develop the Zombie Spawn Cage within this month."
"Don't let me down."
"I..."
Mr. Li, who was originally about to say something, suddenly had wet eyes, and with a trembling voice slightly choked with emotion, he said, "Master... Master Mang, I didn't expect you've been watching me all along. I... I, rest assured, Master Mang, within one month, I will surely complete the development of the Zombie Spawn Cage!"
"Wait for my good news, Master Mang!"
With that, he started running towards Carriage 15's Breeding Carriage with big strides.
"Uh..."
Chen Mang looked at Mr. Li's departing figure, hesitating, maybe he interrupted what Mr. Li wanted to say, what was he about to say when he came over, forget it, it's probably not important, if it's important Mr. Li should come back to him.
And at this moment.
Zhang Damei also walked towards him with large strides.
...
Half an hour later.
Chen Mang returned to the train room, continuously sliding through the footage recorded by the Mechanical Eye on the control panel screen, nodding in satisfaction. Everyone seemed to be working harder and more diligently!
Indeed.
Encouragement is still necessary.
"Master Mang."
At this time, Fang walked in from outside the train room, carefully placing a fruit plate on the table, "I brought you some Red Heart Nuts."
"Mm."
Chen Mang nodded casually, "Just leave it there. Fang, I have high expectations for you on the train, don't let me down."
Fang's body slightly stiffened, eyes reddening as she softly said, "I understand, Master Mang."
"Uh..."
At that moment, Chen Mang, who finally realized, looked at Fang's departing figure, slightly opening his mouth intending to say something, but ended up saying nothing, picking up a nut and putting it into his mouth.
With his legs propped up on the control panel.
Preparing to pick a movie to watch.
He spoke so fluently.
Seeing Fang, he unconsciously said it, but after saying it, he realized Fang is just someone who makes the bed and serves food, nothing else to do, how can she disappoint him?
He surely can't ask her to learn cooking, right?
But, forget it.
Whatever.
Cooking is a good thing, at least she can wash her hands more.
His work was done.
On the train, with over 6000 people all working fervently, not a single idle person, the only idle one in the entire train was... him.
When he's idle, everyone feels at ease.
If he gets busy too, then everyone starts to panic, fearing the train has encountered extremely severe difficulties, and whether they can get through it is uncertain.
...
"Mr. Li..."
The young man who had been following Mr. Li all along hesitantly asked, looking at Mr. Li who had injected himself with two powerful stimulants, "Are you using this thing as a stimulant? You haven't slept for days, why don't you go take a nap?"
"Sleep?"
With red eyes, Mr. Li turned to the young man hoarsely and said, "Until the Zombie Spawner is fully developed, I won't sleep in this lifetime!"
"Bring me another case of cola!"
"You don't know the high expectations Master Mang has for me. Recently, all my efforts have been noticed by Master Mang, as the saying goes, 'A scholar dies for the one who knows him.' Since Master Mang values me so much, I must deliver some results, otherwise, how can I face Master Mang again!"
"Go."
"Apply to Pig Train Captain for an Off-road Motorcycle and then get President Ai to dismantle the engine. I have a crazy plan!"
