Chapter 548: Honorary Standing Committee Member

Wang Tao, Qu Shilin, Gu Yun and others went to the conference room next door to discuss it - in fact, there was not much discussion, because Wang Tao didn't care about who was qualified to use the fourth-level genetic medicine. This was what Gu Yun needed to worry about. matter. Gu Yun had already made preparations, and all he needed was Wang Tao and Qu Shilin's consent.

Of course, this genetic medicine is not free, and it is not cheap. After all, both the raw materials and the energy expended by Qu Shilin are costs.

If the output increases in the future, the price will definitely be much cheaper. But now, these fourth-level genetic medicines are not affordable for ordinary people.

However, there are no poor people who can come here. It is very reasonable to let them share the research cost.

After a brief discussion, Qu Shilin called her assistant and handed all the remaining fourth-level promotion potions to Gu Yun.

"Then we'll leave first."

Wang Tao waved to Gu Yun, and then left with Qu Shilin.

Qu Shilin was still a little excited. After all, being able to develop genetic medicine was indeed a very fulfilling thing.

But she still took a deep breath to calm herself down, because next she was going to do something even more exciting - promotion!

Qu Shilin did not return to the research institute, but followed Wang Tao to the villa. After all, she loses her perception of the outside world when she is promoted, and being around Wang Tao will make her feel more secure.

When I got home, it was already dark.

Qu Shilin took a deep breath and fused the crystal nuclei given to her by Wang Tao one after another. After a while, she lay directly on the bed and fell into sleep.

At this time tomorrow, Changhe Base will have another fifth-level awakener.

After Wang Tao covered Qu Shilin with the quilt, he left the room.

"Is there nothing wrong with Shi Lin?"

Ding Yuqin asked proactively.

"It's okay, just wait until you wake up tomorrow."

Wang Tao smiled and shook his head, then looked at the crowd and said:

"Which of you wants these leopards?"

This time he brought back 6 fifth-level mutant leopard lords, but Wang Tao would not be able to bring them all with him when he goes out in the future. So it's better to assign it to other people. Anyway, they are all at level five now and are strong enough, so there is no need to worry about Hua Bao's little intentions.

Of course, Wang Tao could sense that these leopards didn't have any bad intentions. After all, they are not stupid. They have meat to eat here every day, so who would want to go to that dark place...

"I want!"

"I also want!"

Girls such as Ding Yuqin and Han Rui raised their hands one after another.

Wei Zhenguo and the others actually wanted it, but they already had the black snake, so there was no need to compete with everyone else.

In the end, Wang Tao decided to give the six leopards to Ding Yuqin, Han Rui, Yang Changhong, Lan Yulian, Lu Yingfeng and Li Qiuyu respectively. There were exactly six of them, one for each of them.

This kind of leopard is not only powerful in combat, but can also be used as a mount. And most importantly, their size is actually not that big, about the same as a horse, making it easy to ride in a car.

With Xiao Hei's size, it's inconvenient to ride in a car. He has to be pulled by a large truck, which is quite troublesome. Of course, then again, with its size, there is no need to take a car. Wherever it goes in the future, it can just carry a group of people there. Although it can't fly, its speed is not slow, at least it is faster than many cars. Especially in this kind of ice and snow, it is much easier to use than a car.

After determining the ownership of the leopards, Wang Tao communicated with them, and they naturally said that there was no problem.

Finally, Wang Tao looked at the two Xiao Huo and Xiao Bing who were playing together. Now these two little minks were the only ones missing the fourth level. Wang Tao decided to take them with him when he went out to see if there was any chance to advance them to the fifth level.

Although Xiao Huo is Qu Shilin's pet, they are both our own people and there is no need to distinguish between them. Moreover, Xiao Huo also listens to Wang Tao's words and has a very good relationship with Xiao Bing. It will definitely be no problem for Wang Tao to take them both out at the same time.

Wang Tao planned to go out again after Qu Shilin was promoted. I haven't gone to the Silver Snake Base yet, nor to the place that Shen Cuishan mentioned that is suspected of being a summoning altar. I want to see these.

But when it came to the Silver Snake Base, Wang Tao almost forgot about it.

He immediately contacted Gu Yun.

"Ah? You said there is a Silver Snake base in the distance with a population of three to four hundred thousand people?"

Gu Yun was somewhat shocked.

He knew that there must be other survivor bases in the world, but he felt that there should be very few or even none on the scale of Changhe Base.

This is not because he is arrogant, but because the Changhe Base has reached its current scale due to a lot of coincidences and luck. If it happened again, there might not be a Changhe base... That's why he was so shocked.

But soon, his shock turned into surprise. In the absence of a conflict of interest, no one would think too much of a survivor.

There is still a certain distance between Changhe Base and Silver Snake Base. At present, it seems that there will not be any conflict between the two sides. On the contrary, they can cooperate in some aspects.

If the two bases can join forces, then these hundreds of thousands of people combined will obviously be able to exert greater value!

"Can you contact the specific location of Silver Snake Base? Can you contact there?"

Gu Yun asked quickly.

"I don't know. I just heard about this place, but I haven't been there yet, and I don't know what they use to communicate. I may go to the Silver Snake base the day after tomorrow to have a look, and I'll give you the news then. ”

Wang Tao shook his head.

"Okay! There are many underground lines in our country. Although many of them are broken, there are still some that are not broken. After you find the specific location of the Silver Snake Base, notify me as soon as possible, and I will see if I can borrow these lines to contact them."

Gu Yun said again.

"No problem, I will notify you when the time comes. Oh, by the way, there is one more thing. Have you heard of the summoning altar..."

Wang Tao told Gu Yun about the situation of the summoning altar again.

The summoning altar cannot be used indiscriminately, otherwise it will harm others and yourself. For most people, using the summoning altar has only disadvantages and no advantages. Even if you can get power from the summoning altar, it is only temporary. In the end, you will either die or become a slave to the summoning altar. There is no good end.

"There is such a thing... Then we must take strict precautions, otherwise the harm of this thing is greater than the Church of Twilight!"

Gu Yun immediately became serious. He was ready to call other people immediately and work overnight. It would be best if some legal provisions could be issued against this kind of summoning altar to tell the public the harm of this thing and directly compare it to drugs. And it can be announced together with the news of the gene medicine.

With the gene medicine, which is stable and can improve strength, people basically will not pin their hopes on things like the summoning altar. In addition, the constraints of legal provisions should make people alert to this thing in advance. If they really encounter the summoning altar in the future, they can also deal with it faster.

After telling Gu Yun these two important things, Wang Tao ended the call.

The next day, Wang Tao had nothing to do, so he rested at home for a day and enjoyed a comfortable holiday with Lan Yulian, Ding Yuqin and others.

Gu Yun was already very busy. There were too many things in the past few days, and most of them were presided over by him, so he was very busy. However, he still came to Qiushui Pavilion Villa in person.

"Huh? Let me be a committee member?"

Wang Tao was a little surprised.

Although it is completely fine to be a committee member with his current strength, Wang Tao said before that he does not want to be in charge of things, he just wants to make himself stronger. So except for the position of the principal of the awakening school, he will not take other positions, even if he is a committee member, he does not want it.

After all, if he really becomes a committee member, it would be a bit inappropriate to be a hands-off boss, right? But if he focuses on management, it will waste his time to fight outside, thus affecting his strength. This is why he does not expand the Spark Club. If he had spent some time on the Spark Club, the size of the Spark Club would have been the largest in Changhe Base.

"No, no, no, not an ordinary committee member, but an 'honorary committee member' plus a 'permanent committee member'!"

Seeing Wang Tao frown, Gu Yun shook his head quickly.

"Honorary committee member plus permanent committee member, what does this mean?"

Wang Tao was a little curious.

Gu Yun explained:

"Honorary committee members are lifelong. Although they have no real power, they enjoy the highest treatment in our Changhe Base for life! Only committee members who have made great contributions to Changhe Base can get it. You are the first person in our base to become an honorary committee member. Although you are not a committee member, you have made too many contributions, so it is naturally an exception..."

Without real power, there is no need to work... Wang Tao nodded immediately. This kind of empty position doesn't matter. As long as it doesn't affect his strength.

"As for the permanent members, they have real power, and their power is much greater than that of ordinary members - for example, one vote is equivalent to five votes! And most importantly, the term of office of ordinary members is one year, while the term of office of permanent members is five years..."

"Of course, I know you don't want to waste your time on management, so if you want to manage, you can manage at any time. If you don't want to manage, then you can do your own thing, very free!"

"...Isn't this bad?"

Wang Tao was a little speechless.

He hated people who slacked off at work the most, except himself.

"You are the first person in our base, you should be treated like this! And think about it, if even you are not a member of our base, what will others think? I'm afraid they will think you are being suppressed..."

Gu Yun said with a serious face.

"Why do you suddenly want me to be a member at this time?"

Wang Tao was still a little confused.

Gu Yun did not hide it and explained to Wang Tao directly:

"There is nothing to hide. There are actually two reasons..."

"One is that you defeated Cheng Yiyi. Although we don't quite understand it, Cheng Yiyi said that you didn't use heavy hands to save her face, otherwise the battle would have ended long ago... So you can imagine your strength. You are definitely the undisputed number one in Changhe Base! If you don't serve as a committee member, it would be a bit unreasonable..."

"The second is that it is time for the committee members to change their terms. Some of the current committee members are ready to step down. We need new people to fill in..."

Hearing this, Wang Tao was very surprised.

"Members change their terms? Are they ready to step down?"

It has been more than a year since the end of the world.

Although according to regulations, the term of office of the committee members is one year, the term of office of this batch of committee members is indeed coming to an end. But it doesn't say that they can't be re-elected. They can continue to be re-elected. No one can pull them down unless they voluntarily step down...

"Yes, they voluntarily abdicated. Because everyone's strength is getting stronger and stronger, and their strength is still stagnant at the third level... Although there are genetic drugs, even if they cannot awaken, they can be promoted to the fourth level, but there is still a big difference in the strength of the psychic and the awakened... And they are not young anymore. They feel that they can't keep up with the times. It's better to abdicate and let more capable people come, so that they can have a good rest..."

Gu Yun's tone was a little emotional.

"It's really admirable!"

Wang Tao was also a little amazed.

In Changhe Base, Gu Yun, the mayor, may have a high sense of presence, as if he took care of all important things. But when it comes to power and status, the members of the committee are still higher. Gu Yun is more like a big housekeeper. Many things seem to be decided by Gu Yun, but in fact, he was asked to lead the various departments of the city hall to implement them after the committee finalized them.

Therefore, these members can take the initiative to give up their power and choose to abdicate, which makes Wang Tao very admired. Most people can't do this.

"Today, my old leader talked to me. He said that they can't understand the strength of you awakeners, especially fifth-level awakeners like you..."

"And if you can't even understand your own strength, then if you encounter any crisis in the future, you won't be able to formulate a strategy - if they overestimate your strength, they may let you die; if they underestimate your strength, it will cause a lot of waste... This is the so-called 'layman guiding the expert'!"

"The old leader said that the base is now on the right track. Even if they suddenly disappear, they can still develop stably for a period of time. They should take this opportunity to withdraw quickly and let more capable young people come, so that the future of the base can have better development..."

Listening to Gu Yun's words, Wang Tao admired him, but he had to admit that what his old leader said made sense.

For example, Wang Tao's current strength, except for himself, even Lan Yulian and other people beside him are not very clear - it's not that Wang Tao deliberately hides his strength, but that he has been getting stronger. It's impossible to report in real time, right?

Although it may be a little inadequate in some aspects to let people with strong abilities serve as decision-makers, it is more appropriate overall.

Moreover, these committee members have just retired, not died. If there is anything you don’t understand in management, you can also ask them for advice…

“What do you think?”

Looking at Gu Yun’s expectant eyes, Wang Tao thought for a moment and nodded reluctantly.

“Okay, I agree.”

“Haha, congratulations! Committee member Wang!”
