Before ascending to God, be a good lord

In the centrally controlled conference room, Lant, Little Cardinal, Gu Leiya and Wendy sat at the table, looking at the magic circle on the table.

The long table top is like a picture scroll, showing an overhead view of 60 groups on the entire construction site, and there are several small arrays in front of Lant showing the conditions of individual construction sites.

"Hey, look at that person, he's bound to fall down in a while!" Lant pointed at the image of a demon holder in the magic circle and said cheerfully, "This person needs safety education. After falling twice, he will have a long memory. !”

"Lant?" Wendy frowned and wanted to ask, "Is it so good-looking?" But she still couldn't open her mouth.

"This group should be the Umoni from Galloping Horse College, right?" Lant found another group he knew on the magic circle and simply zoomed in to see the specific construction progress.

"Well, it seems so," Gu Leiya nodded, "What do you think he did?"

"There is still some structure. At least I can divide my subordinates into groups and let each group dig the ground step by step. It is better than the boys from the imperial capitals just now."

Suddenly, Lant found another team from the Zhuoqin family, zoomed in on the screen and said, "It's them. A group of people got together to deceive their lord. I said that although the children of the Zhuoqin family are smart, they can't be consuls." ,
  He knows how to send people out to work, but doesn't know how to let them rest and supervise each other. It seems that he has grown up with his parents since he was a child and is fooled by his servants every day. "

As soon as Yu Ling entered the conference room where the secret lock was controlled, she saw Lant pointing in front of the monitoring array. Although he sounded anxious, his face was cheerful and there was no sign of anxiety at all.

"Yuling, you're here just in time," Lant saw the general manager of the construction site arriving, and quickly waved to her and said, "You should pay more attention to all the team leaders and their daily progress.

As long as the methods they propose are useful, they must be recorded. We can hold a summary meeting every half month, and those who deserve recognition must be commended. It is not just the captain, if it is an ordinary non-magic person who has proposed an innovation Construction methods can also be commended and promoted. "

"Oh, I see!"

Compared with Lant's interest, Yu Ling frowned and asked: "My Majesty? Are you sure you want these people to lead 3000 people on the construction site? If they are like this, it will take 2 or 3 months. Can we dig out a reservoir?"

For this reservoir, Lant researched day and night for several days. He traveled all over the plain from east to west. He spent another two days with the black rabbit and the magic goblin to draw on the ground. Hundreds of square ridges were constructed as the dividing lines for each construction team.
  In order to facilitate construction, the residential building area of ​​the post station between Xi 7 and the iron mine was expanded to accommodate a population of 5000, and a large number of tents, tools and beasts of burden were also allocated.

However, what everyone did not expect was that on January 1, Lant actually issued a recruitment order to various factions in the Imperial Capital, the nobles of Dragon Tooth City, the Galloping Horse family, Galloping Horse Academy, and various families in the territory.

These families can recommend a demon possessor below the intermediate level to bring 100 demon-free and 20 beginners to Yeqi City for a recruitment examination. The content of the examination is that such a team of 121 people must carry out a 1 square meter Kilometers of land, dig out the corresponding amount and shape of earth.

At the beginning, many families signed up for Rand. However, when they heard about the content of the appointment examination and the location of the examination on the Galloping Horse Plains, some of them began to shrink back. If there is no magic turbulence, it is not difficult for a mid-level mage or knight to do such a project on his own. However, on the plains, the fighting spirit and magic of the demons are greatly restricted. The devil can complete such a project.

"These people have no experience in leading the people before, and have never participated in construction. It is a complete waste of time to let them do it," Yu Ling complained, "Isn't it just drawing large patterns of magic circles on the ground and then building close 300 towers? With the effort they have to do these things, you might as well just take the black rabbit and a group of beasts of burden and just finish it!"

"Yes, I know," Lant nodded, "Black Rabbit and I have estimated that if it's the two of us plus 100 beasts of burden, it should be completed in less than a week. As they are doing so crookedly, , maybe I will have to add time to correct their mistakes!"

"Then what are you planning?" Little Red Bird was also confused.

"In the past, I always felt that building a building was a time-consuming and labor-intensive matter. Instead of letting a group of demon-free people and demon-possessed people work for a long time, I might as well just do it myself with Black Rabbit or Elsa and Teresa."

Lant's tone gradually became serious, "But now I think about it, I have done all the work, but what about my subordinates? The construction project is not just about building the building, it is also a large-scale systematic project. If If a person can get a hundred people to dig a section of earth as required, he can also lead another hundred people to run a factory or even manage a city."

"So, your purpose is not to let these low-level and middle-level people dig dirt, but to select useful people?" Gu Leiya suddenly realized.

"Yes, those subordinates in the past, whether they were Lanya, Petreu or Gatsby, were not chosen by me. Essentially, I had to use whoever was in the iron or salt mine. However, in the future we will have a kingdom, and I can no longer use whoever I see as I did before, and there must be some channels that can screen, select and cultivate talents."

Lant pointed to the entire project team, "The Knights, the Magic Factory, and the administrative staff are all channels. I want the project to also be a channel. The more channels there are, the more people I can choose, and I am not afraid. If something goes wrong with one of my subordinates, I don’t even have a replacement.”

"If that's the case, why do they still let them exchange experiences with each other? Shouldn't everyone be separated like in the exam?" Little Red Bird asked.

"The construction site is not only an examination room, but also a place for learning. To me, their future abilities are the most important." Lant showed a bit of an imperial demeanor as he spoke.

"I not only need people to do engineering, but also people with business acumen, leadership awareness, and collaboration skills. I don't need them to completely complete the earthwork. As long as I am sure that this person is the person I need, I can arrange it. One step ahead.”

"So, your most fundamental purpose is to examine their ability as lords, not their original profession?" Gu Leiya finally understood.

"From now on, I will do a similar large-scale project every winter and it will become a fixed selection mechanism in the territory." Lant said with satisfaction.
