Chapter 106: Chapter 104 Camp Strength, Rapid Enhancement (2-in-1 Large Chapter)_3

Secondly, they are all well aware that if it weren’t for Xia Hong’s implementation of the Cold Beast Meat system, giving them the opportunity to cultivate, they would likely still be lying in their wooden huts, muddling through life.

Even Luo Yuan, the Zhao brothers, and all the former Rogel Camp people look at Xia Hong with full admiration in their eyes, even gradually showing a hint of fanaticism;

Even if they are like this, it’s needless to say the people of Daishi, Dachuan, and Yellow Zhao, and even more so for the people of Great Xia Camp, who look at Xia Hong as if he were a god, filled with fervor and devotion.

Six Earth-digging Realm experts, one hundred and forty Logging Realm individuals—this strength far surpasses not only the entirety of Rogel Camp before, but even all the camps at Redwood Ridge combined, still can’t compare to the current Great Xia.

Reverence for the strong is a commonality in humanity, especially in a world like the Ice Abyss, akin to an icy purgatory;

A leader not only strong in strength but also capable of leading the camp to grow and prosper, making everyone live better, holds a place in their hearts undoubtedly far beyond a deity a thousandfold, or even ten thousandfold.

After all, the Ice Abyss World has long been rumored to be the product of divine punishment.

God would not save them, but Xia Hong would, not only saving them but also allowing them to live better and become stronger.

"The camp’s hunting ability is getting stronger, so the supply of Cold Beast Meat will remain according to the previous system, with no changes. Correspondingly, your cultivation cannot slack just because you’ve achieved a bit,"

To be frank, Logging Realm strength is not much help except for chopping wood and lending a small hand within the camp; it’s not good for hunting or mining. Even for digging trenches, you can only dig on the softened ground of coal stone."

So, cultivate, cultivate, and cultivate! Only by breaking through to the Earth-digging Realm can you truly have a foothold and actually assist me, making more important contributions to the camp, understood?"

"Understood, leader!!!"

Over a hundred people, including Earth-digging Realm experts like Xia Chuan and Luo Yuan, answered in unison, a powerful clang that shook the entire wooden hut slightly.

From the unwavering determination on everyone’s faces, Xia Hong also felt their resolve and drive, and his expression was slightly moved.

"Good, then I will look forward to it!"

After saying this, Xia Hong then revealed the real purpose for gathering everyone here.

"There are two things for calling you here this time; the first is the future personnel arrangement for the camp’s Logging Realm."

Upon hearing Xia Hong mention the first matter, everyone immediately became alert.

Recently, over a hundred people have broken through to the Logging Realm. Besides the few hired by the Camp Supply Station and Craftsmen Workshop, the rest have been following Cheng Feng for logging and gathering but are not officially part of the logging or hunting teams.

This is not a trivial matter!

The official identity of a logging team member means a daily five-pound quota of Cold Beast Meat, and even more for the hunting team, with ten pounds daily;

In the Camp Supply Station and Craftsmen Workshop, although currently only Xia Chuan, Yuan Cheng, and Mu Dong gain an extra thirty pounds of Cold Beast Meat monthly, based on the recruitment standards set by Xia Hong, anyone who joins these two institutions will definitely receive more Cold Beast Meat in the future.

The over a hundred newly promoted Logging Realm individuals have not had specific arrangements made by Xia Hong recently, all following the rules set by Xia Chuan, currently receiving the highest reserve standards of two pounds of Cold Beast Meat daily.

In the reserve phase, two pounds a day is certainly enough, but after breaking through to the Logging Realm, two pounds fall far short of meeting their cultivation needs.

Since Cold Beast Meat is hunted down by the hunting team at the risk of their lives, and given how everyone has seen Xia Hong busy beyond measure lately, they feel it’s inappropriate to bother him with this matter.

Now hearing that Xia Hong is finally going to make arrangements, everyone is naturally extremely excited and listening attentively.

"The current hunting team of fifteen can meet the camp’s needs, and adding more Logging Realm members to it is of no use, so there will be no expansion of the hunting team, and only Earth-digging Realm individuals can apply to join in the future."

Upon hearing Xia Hong’s words, while others had no reaction, the original hunting team members, apart from the five who broke through to Earth-digging Realm like Luo Yuan, breathed a sigh of relief.

Now with six Earth-digging Realm experts, they worried too much that Xia Hong would scale back the hunting team and expel the Logging Realm members, but fortunately, their worries proved unnecessary.

"The logging team currently has 21 people, and this round of expansion will increase it to 80 people; we’ll also establish a collection team, tentatively recruiting 40 people, with benefits the same as the logging team."

"Leader, the collection team, is it specifically for gathering Crystal Fruit?"

Upon hearing someone below inquire, Xia Hong immediately shook his head, saying, "Gathering Crystal Fruit is just one task; recording the growth cycle of Ice Trees, searching for usable wild herb resources, finding and documenting more fruiting plants, etc., are also part of the team’s duties... As our hunting team’s activity range expands, the collection team must follow suit, seeking more useful resources for the camp, these are the collection team’s responsibilities..."

Having said that, Xia Hong paused and continued: "The work of the collection team is very important; our recipe for the Golden Sore Powder was derived from the Blue Frost Grass brought back by Cheng Feng."

Everyone understood what the collection team entailed and nodded with some thought.

"Additionally, the treatment of the Camp Supply Station and Craftsmen Workshop will also be the same as the logging and collection teams, with five pounds of Cold Beast Meat daily. Recruitment for these two departments will be fully managed by Xia Chuan and Mu Dong; they only need to report to me, and whether you can join depends entirely on your own abilities."

The Camp Supply Station manages all camp materials, and as resources increase, it will definitely need more people, but for now, with not much inventory, few personnel are needed;

The Craftsmen Workshop requires not just ordinary Logging Realm members but those with some craftsmanship skills or at least talent in craftsmanship; currently, not many are needed either.

Moreover, Xia Chuan and Mu Dong have already recruited a few people respectively in recent times; the Camp Supply Station recruited two, and the Craftsmen Workshop recruited five, all of whom have been reported to Xia Hong, so he is aware.

"Whether it’s the logging team or the collection team, with 120 positions available, you have plenty of choices. Of course, you can also choose not to join either, but if so, there’ll be no share of Cold Beast Meat for you in the future."

Upon hearing this, everyone shook their heads, assuming Xia Hong was joking, as breaking through to the Logging Realm and not joining the collection or logging teams would mean becoming a parasite doing nothing.

Such persons wouldn’t get any share of Cold Beast Meat in the future; the whole camp would ensure any previously consumed has to be coughed up.

With Xia Hong as a leading example, it’s foreseeable that not only currently but even in the future, the Great Xia Camp will not tolerate such parasites.

"In summary, eight words: Great Xia Camp, does not support idlers!"

"Without strength, before you can venture out, the camp supporting you is to be expected. With strength, you should give back to the camp. The strength of Great Xia solely depends on me, and that too has its limits, only when everyone exerts their value can the camp’s strength increasingly grow, and our lives certainly become better!"

As Xia Hong said these two sentences, his tone was quite solemn.

Everyone nodded emphatically, engraving this sentiment in their hearts.

"Alright, the first matter is settled; now let’s discuss the second one."

Allowing everyone a bit of time to digest, Xia Hong started on the second matter, first giving Mu Dong a look instead of speaking directly.

Mu Dong nodded, stepped forward excitedly.

"Everyone, the preparations for the new wooden houses are complete, and all necessary tools and parts are ready. Over 600 meters of ground stakes have been laid, and we can now proceed with synchronous construction!"

Upon hearing that the new wooden houses were finally ready to break ground, the faces of the over one hundred Logging Realm individuals, along with the surrounding crowd, were all instantly filled with delight.

Even though Xia Hong had already learned this news earlier, as he surveyed the wooden house he’s lived in for half a year, a smile was still hard to suppress.

The current wooden house is indeed too cramped.

Just like everyone else, he’s long been looking forward to breaking ground and moving into new houses.
