Chapter 209: Incentives

Chapter 209: Incentives

"At the same time, I'm also worried that as the number of people increases, they may become less willing to share and communicate, which obviously hinders the growth of abilities."

Dong Junwei's considerations were mostly based on the overall situation and the interests of all members.

For example, on this point, she didn't want to force others to reveal their privacy, but she hoped everyone would share information.

"We don't have this problem now. All of our abilities are basically developed and grown under Tang Jing's guidance."Unravel the Unknown, Unleash the Unimaginable: N♡vεlB¡n.

"That's true, but who knows what will happen in the future? After all, Tang Jing is only one person. When we reach the level of the Green Stele, how can she handle all of it?"

"Are we thinking too far ahead?"

"People without foresight will encounter immediate worries."

"I have an idea," Dong Junwei suddenly interrupted the discussion.

"What idea?"

"Many people will indeed have reservations. Even if we don't mention saving our strength or hiding our trump cards, making our abilities public will only result in the organization assigning more tasks to them. It's a bit unfair before there are more rewards."

"So, I think we could establish an incentive mechanism."

"Incentive mechanism?"

Upon hearing this, Chen Mu suddenly thought of how Chang Junyan had informed him about his ability breakthrough, which led to him being assigned to the field team.

In retrospect, there was indeed a sense of falling into a trap.

Of course, at present, everyone was as close as family, and they wouldn't really care about these things. But as Dong Junwei said, things wouldn't remain the same when more people join in the future.

By then, even if Chang Junyan himself was willing to share his ability progress, Chen Mu would advise him to keep some reservations.

This was the difference between a large enterprise and a small company.

The latter could rely on the leader's personal ability to unite and rally the employees, but the former must rely on rules and systems.

"Of course, the specific amount of rewards will require more precise evaluation, which, for now, can only be done by Tang Jing."

After saying this, Dong Junwei looked towards Tang Jing.

Tang Jing remained silent throughout Dong Junwei's proposal until now when she finally spoke, "I agree with the squad leader's proposal."

With this statement, as long as Chen Mu didn't object, the matter was essentially settled. And since Chen Mu was the biggest beneficiary of this proposal, he had no reason to oppose it. Besides, for Qiming to continue and grow, such regulations were necessary.

"But the biggest issue is, how do we judge what kind of work should receive what level of reward?" Chen Mu said.

Tang Jing replied, "Absolute fairness doesn't exist, and even when this collective becomes large enoughlike a societyit becomes impossible and unnecessary to specify things to that degree."

"In general, the principle of a market economy is to set a clear price. When the reward for a certain job is too low, naturally fewer people will do it. And when the number of people doing it is too low, there will be a forced increase in the reward until a balance is achieved. Of course, the overall market condition of a society would never be this idealized model; humans live in a state of transition from one condition to another, which is why centralized macro-control is needed. However, for now, we don't need to consider these things."

Though Tang Jing's words were somewhat complex, the general meaning was clear to everyone.

An Ruosu sighed, "If the Green Stele had thought so far ahead back then, it wouldn't be in the current situation."

Dong Junwei nodded, "The Green Stele's strategic tactics were not wrong. At this stage, combat-capable individuals are more important, and giving them better treatment is reasonable. But the problem is that while it wants to use certain rules to constrain the lower-level individuals, it doesn't provide them with a clear system of rewards and punishments. It only statically assigns levels to people without giving them channels for advancement. Even if they work harder and want to earn more food, they can't. This lack of hope will naturally decrease their motivation to work."

"This is something that Qiming needs to avoid at all costs; otherwise, in the future, we would just become another Green Stele. In my ideal Qiming, even those without special abilities could obtain relatively generous living conditions by working hard at ordinary tasks."

Dong Junwei seemed to have given this issue a lot of thought, and she talked extensively about it. Finally, she said, "Of course, achieving all this will probably require a long period of research and exploration."
