Endless Winter: My Camp Infinite Upgrades

Chapter 29 New Rules

Xia Hong has never been someone who compromises easily.

Just like in his previous life, in the later stages of ALS, he felt that he was about to lose all ability to move and become a complete cripple, so he simply chose to commit suicide.

If you live without dignity, it is better to die heroically.

However, in this cold winter world full of dangers, it is extremely difficult to achieve this goal.

Hunger, cold, daylight, cold beasts, strange things...

Any one of these could take the lives of countless people.

It is impossible to do it alone.

Only by uniting and gathering the strength of more people can this goal be achieved as quickly and as well as possible. This is the most profound understanding that Xia Hong has gained since his time traveling through time.

Xia Hong believes that as human beings, we all yearn for a decent and dignified life. This is the simplest and most essential need in the human heart, without exception.

He is like this, and so are Xia Chuan, Yuan Cheng, Yue Feng and others.

The same is true for other people in the Daxia camp.

And the meat of cold beasts is the ticket to such a decent life.

Before, when there was no cold beast meat, every time Xia Hong came back, the camp was dead silent. Except for the few people who had the cold beast meat to practice, the rest of the people basically all lay woodenly beside the fire.

But ever since Xia Hong took out the cold beast meat to share, they changed.

Almost everyone, after having a full meal, will look for an opportunity to exercise, hoping to increase their strength, join the logging reserve team, and get some cold beast meat.

The sudden vitality of these people made Xia Hong realize that everyone in the camp was eager for change in their hearts, and anyone could unleash tremendous energy if given the opportunity.

When countless individuals with enormous energy form a group and move towards the same goal, no matter what difficulties they encounter, they cannot stop them.

There is strength in numbers, and this is by no means just an empty phrase.

The size of the camps, which are differentiated by the population, is a clear proof of this.

All camps know that they can become stronger by increasing their population.

But due to limited resources and strength, they can't do it.

But now, the Great Xia camp can do it by relying on a small fire to take the sword to an unconventional path.

Of course it was impossible for Xia Hong to do that and he still stuck to the old rules.

Put aside personal gains and losses, share some of the cold beast meat, make the camp more and more manpower, absorb more people, expand the scale of the camp, and repeat the cycle. This is the best way to develop the camp.

Xia Chuan, Yuan Chuan and others are actually not stupid, but due to the limitations of their previous knowledge and experience, they are inevitably short-sighted.

Furthermore, interests have always moved people since ancient times.

Letting go of personal gains and losses is never an easy thing.

Fortunately, Xia Hong was there to set an example for them.

When Xia Ding and the logging team were in trouble, Xia Hong shared the cold beast meat he brought back with them.

So now, Xia Hong has the confidence to ask them to do the same.

In fact, Xia Hong can have the final say. He believes that under his orders, no matter Xia Chuan, Yuan Cheng, Yue Feng and others, or even everyone else in the camp, will go against him.

With his current prestige, it is entirely possible.

But he didn't, instead he chose to present facts and reason with Xia Chuan and others.

It is very simple to abolish an old system and establish a new one.

However, it is not easy to make everyone understand the logic behind the system, to make the system truly effective, or even to make everyone become part of the team that maintains the system.

The purpose of any system is to regulate and develop the organization. If the implementation of the new system causes Xia Chuan, Yuan Cheng and others to have opinions about other people in the camp, or even cause conflicts, it will run counter to this purpose.

The main reason was that some time ago, Xia Hong had clearly felt that Xia Chuan, the first person to break through the logging realm, really had some opinions about the other people in the camp, and the relationship was indeed developing in the direction of conflict.

That's why Xia Hong patiently explained to them why he did this.

Doing so will benefit them and the camp.

After Xia Hong explained all the pros and cons, he saw that Xia Chuan, Yuan Cheng and others were all lost in thought. He did not disturb them, but remained silent, waiting for everyone to think clearly about his words.

After a long time, Yuan Cheng was the first to raise his head:
"Leader, I understand. Only when everyone becomes stronger can we truly not be afraid of those cold beasts, and the tragedy before will not happen again. I am willing to listen to you and divide the meat in the ratio of 30:50."

"No matter how strong an individual is, he cannot change the overall environment of our camp. The leader is right. Only when everyone plays a role can we live better and longer. I agree. The rules for distributing meat remain unchanged."

"That's right. We are now able to hunt. There is more cold beast meat than before, enough to train more woodcutters. If we still stick to the old rules, Daxia will at most return to its previous state. I also agree with the leader's opinion. The rules for distributing meat will remain unchanged."

…………

Yue Feng, Lin Kai and the other five people also spoke in agreement. It was obvious that they not only listened to Xia Hong's words, but also truly understood them.

"It is indeed more important to prioritize cultivating more combat power in the Lumbering Realm at the moment!"

Unexpectedly, the last one to figure it out was his younger brother Xia Chuan.

Seeing the sincerity on everyone's faces and knowing that they approved from the bottom of their hearts, Xia Hong felt relieved and a smile appeared on his face.

This matter is not a big deal, but it is definitely not a small matter.

The distribution of benefits has always been an eternal problem.

Whether to prioritize individuals or the whole has never been determined.

But what is certain is that at present Daxia should definitely give priority to the whole.

A group of people who have no strength and can't even go out at night are not only of no help to the camp, but also a burden to those in the logging realm.

Even picking crystal fruits involves certain risks.

Abandoning them is of course impossible, but picking crystal fruits endlessly to feed them is even more undesirable.

As the old saying goes, it is better to teach a man to fish than to give him a fish. Xia Hong deeply agrees with this.

The right thing to do is to help them become stronger and improve their ability to survive.

Moreover, as the strength of all the people in the camp grows stronger, the speed at which resources accumulate will become faster and faster. The more resources there are, the more people can be supported. This cycle will continue, and the prospects of the Daxia camp will be limitless.

Of course, more importantly, the resources for upgrading the camp system have also been sourced.

Although the current system building only has a small campfire, judging from its upgrade conditions and the conditions for opening other buildings, the resources Xia Hong will need in the future will definitely be a huge number.

Without the support of a stable and large camp population, Xia Hong would certainly not be able to obtain so many resources by himself, so he must rely on more people.

The establishment of the new rules was a challenge to the inherent concepts of the world by Xia Hong, and it was also his first practice of the development concept of the Daxia Camp.

Fortunately, thanks to the prestige he had accumulated in the early stages and his hard work in persuasion, everyone listened to him.

"After all, it's just a makeshift team of over a hundred people. We should take it slow. If there's a first time, there will be a second time. The day when we get on the right track won't be far away!"

With the new rules established, everyone's worries were resolved and Xia Hong no longer thought about it.

"It's going to be dark soon, get ready to go out."

The others nodded when they heard this and turned around to get their weapons.

Only Xu Ning, who had just made a breakthrough, knew that he was about to go out for the first time. He touched the stone axe that had been hanging on his waist and looked the most excited.
