Transmigrated into a Grandpa, Embracing the Laid-Back Life

Chapter 479: Preparations Before the Secret Realm

The air fell into a brief silence.

Su Ming did not speak, his eyes slightly downcast, as if lost in thought.

Inside the Consciousness Sea, Lin Yu’s voice rang out at the right moment.

“This Steward Sun has learned to be clever. He’s not fighting you head-on with technology anymore; he’s playing the business world’s poaching game,” Lin Yu’s tone carried a hint of smug disdain. “The Repair Hall is your foundation—you absolutely cannot lose it. The Vessel Hall resorting to poaching means they can no longer suppress you in terms of products. That’s a good thing. But people’s hearts are fickle, and you can’t prevent every defection. This is indeed a fatal crisis.”

Su Ming naturally understood this reasoning.

For cultivators at the bottom, cultivation meant cultivating resources. Wherever there were more resources, that’s where they would go—this was an undeniable human nature. Trying to restrain employees with so-called “loyalty” and “sentiment” was nothing but a scam cooked up by the black-hearted capitalists of his past life.

To keep people, one had to offer chips they couldn’t refuse, while also adding shackles they dared not break.

Su Ming lightly tapped the table with his finger, producing a crisp “thud” that cut through Wang Defa’s indignation.

“If they’re lured away by double pay, it means their hearts were never truly with the Repair Hall. You can’t force them to stay; let them go,” Su Ming said, his voice extremely calm, yet carrying an undeniable authority of someone at the top.

Wang Defa was stunned, then stomped his foot in frustration. “Hall Master, are we just going to let them dig into our ranks like this?”“Of course not.”

Su Ming raised his head, his gaze sharp as a blade. “Issue an order: starting next month, the base pay for all remaining apprentices in the hall will be uniformly increased by thirty percent.”

Wang Defa was about to speak, but Su Ming raised his hand to stop him. “This is just to pacify them. The real move comes later.”

“Establish a ‘Core Technician’ system immediately within the Repair Hall,” Su Ming said, perfectly applying the modern corporate management concepts Lin Yu had instilled in him to this cultivation organization. “You, Old Li, and Zhang Asheng will personally screen the candidates. Any apprentice who has mastered the core Spirit Gathering patterns and protective line inscription techniques will be promoted to core technician.”

“The pay for core technicians will be doubled directly!”
