Chapter 101 Knowing People and Making Good Use of them

All the lights in the Morgan Building were turned on at once, which shocked the people who were looking at various products to stop all their actions, and then everyone burst into cheers and applause.

The restoration of power means that the team is one step closer to resuming production and returning to normal life.

Everyone didn't expect the power to be restored so quickly. Originally, Clyde said it would take 5 days.

When Iger asked about Clyde's electricity, Clyde did subconsciously hide part of the real situation.

First of all, it may indeed take 3-5 days to pull the wire from the broadcast tower to a certain building in Rapid Creek.And that's assuming Clyde knows where tons of wires and all kinds of electrician's tools are.

But in it, there is one exception, and that is the Morgan Building.

The Morgan Building is quite special. It uses an independent power supply line, and the line is directly connected to the small hydropower transmission hub. The specific reason is unknown, and Clyde doesn't bother to think so much.

Last time, before Clyde climbed the radio tower, he went to the power transmission hub to check it. He found that the blackout was probably due to a short circuit somewhere, which caused the overload of the high-voltage transformer to fall off.

After Clyde pulled down all the switch blades of the sub-control power supply, he used the insulating rod to push up the repaired transformer safety switch blade.Afterwards, he closed the switch of the broadcasting iron tower, so that the power supply of the broadcasting iron tower was restored.

Today, Clyde came to the power transmission hub again. With the mentality of trying it first, he closed the sub-control switch of the Morgan Building.

Fortunately, there was no trip and the line was very stable.When Clyde walked out of the small house in the power transmission hub, he saw the brightly lit Morgan Building in the distance.

The matter of electrifying the Morgan Building is as simple as it sounds, just close the switch and it's done.

Such a simple process, but the preconditions behind it are not simple at all.

In addition to all kinds of luck, what is more important is that there is Clyde, an electrician who is very familiar with the local power transmission network.

Even though Clyde did it so easily, it would be impossible for anyone else to do it.

Therefore, when Clyde found Iger to ask for a reward, Iger readily took off the watch and handed it to Clyde, which he deserved.

After Clyde took the watch, he happily walked aside. As for Iger, he went to the watch counter and took a random watch and put it on.

This stuff doesn't appeal to him.

After turning on the electricity just now, Father Locke talked to Walton for a long time. Using the power supply as a practical example, Father Locke explained in detail the construction and renovation plan of the Gospel Team for Rapid Creek Town.

I have to say that after hearing Father Locke's words, Walton felt that there were really good-minded people in the gospel team who could come up with such a good idea.

But when Father Locke asked him to provide material support, Walton rejected it in an instant.

During the negotiation, Father Locke made a fatal mistake, he was too honest.

Two very important skills in negotiation are: you can let your opponent see some of your cards, and you have to let your opponent see some of your folded cards.

At this point, Andy did a very good job.

When Andy was negotiating, his words were both sincere and full of uncertainty. Listening to his words, he couldn't touch the edge of his cards.

As for Father Locke, he honestly confessed the situation of his team to the opponent, and he wanted to impress the opponent with his true feelings.

Obviously, Father Locke's sincerity is useful to Iger, but it is invalid for people like Walton, and more importantly, the team's hole cards were actively exposed by Father Locke, and Walton now knows the Gospel team Achilles' heel: too small.

Gospel teams are only 12 people right now, no matter what your composition is, it's too small.

If the scale is small, the strength must be limited. That is to say, even if you take Jixi Town, how long you can hold it is unknown.

When the Morgan Building is electrified, it will become a very striking landmark.

After all the survivors heard about and discovered the Morgan Building, they would inevitably migrate here continuously.There is no way for a gospel team of only 12 to occupy such a huge fortress for a long time.

After Walton waits for other powerful teams to enter Rapid Creek Town, no matter how he snatched them from the Gospel team, he will sell these materials for a good price at that time, which is much better than opening the door to give gifts now.

The reason is the same as the electrification of the Moore Building. If you find the right person, certain things can be done easily.

Talk the other way around.

For some things, if the person doing the thing is not suitable, not only will it be impossible to make progress, but it may push things in a worse direction.

Father Locke is good at many things, but he is not good at negotiating.If this happened to Andy, Andy would have a way to trick the door open sooner or later.

Even if Andy is not used, and Iger is half-talking and half-threatening, the same effect can be achieved.

Unfortunately, no one noticed this.

Iger subconsciously believed that the leader himself must be better than the subordinates. He was guilty of the superstitious leadership disease of the Central Plains people.

In the Central Plains, this is indeed the case.A lot of things that subordinates couldn't knock down, after the boss came forward, they had a meal and a cup of tea, and they were done.

But Americans, don't take this set.

Instead, they will feel that "I have caught your weakness".The higher the level of the person negotiating with me, the more you want from me.

Then I can't build high-rise buildings on the ground and ask for prices.

As for Andy, he didn't think he was a member of the board of directors, so he didn't have to worry about it.There is no such thing as a self-recommended or volunteered job in America.

Father Locke felt that negotiation was a matter of great responsibility. Once the negotiation collapsed, the negotiator would bear great pressure of responsibility, so as a good person, Father Locke did not throw this burden on his subordinates.

As for Vance, he gives you a hammer, and you can do whatever you want.

Therefore, under the impetus of the common "tacit understanding", Father Locke played on his own, and as expected, he messed up the negotiation with Walton.

And what's worse, Father Locke strengthened Walton's confidence that he would never open the door in a disguised form, which can be regarded as a complete end to the option of peace talks.

Of course, everyone didn't feel that things were so bad at the moment. On the contrary, the electrification of the Moore Building brought a festive atmosphere to the whole team.

Today, all the modern kitchen tools are in use, and everyone is scrambling to show off their cooking skills, and finally they are sent away one by one by Sister Maria and Joanna.

A bunch of bad things.

With the help of various home appliances, today's dinner is very efficient and hearty.

Just as everyone gathered in the Furniture City on the second floor, in a cheerful atmosphere, the huge and luxurious dining table was filled with all kinds of fragrant and attractive food, drinks, and even alcohol.At this time, a brown car stopped in front of the Morgan Building.

After the man in the car got out of the car, he looked up at the Morgan Building shining under the night sky, full of pious sense of belonging in his heart.

This is Gospel Team and their Rapid Creek town.

"cheers!"

The high-raised wine glasses were filled with various liquids, and they scrambled to collide with their companions, making crisp sounds.

At this time, everyone found a person emerging from the stairs.

The laughter stopped instantly, the twelve people turned their heads together, and twelve pairs of eyes stared at him.

The man tried his best to squeeze out a friendly smile. He waved to everyone and said, "Hi, everyone, I'm Ryan Cole."
