High Martial Arts World: Awakening Daily Settlement Panel.

Chapter 143 Do you really think warriors are just there to receive benefits?

County Magistrate Shi Yong walked up to the front desk, showing a harmless smile, and said: "Everyone please sit down, don't be restrained, we are all from Changtu, it's not easy for us to get together, just chat casually."

If he said it was a casual chat, no one would take him seriously.

Among the warriors who came this time, there are also two third-grade warriors.

The others are all first- and second-rank warriors.

Therefore, the others were mostly just listening, and if there were any matters or problems, the third-rank warriors would communicate first.

One of the men, who was about fifty years old, said: "County Magistrate Shi, it has been said since ancient times that 'nothing is more profound than the love for one's hometown'. We are all thinking of our hometown and putting aside trivial matters to gather here. If Changtu needs anything, just speak frankly. Everyone's time is precious, so don't beat around the bush..."

County Magistrate Shi Yong said bluntly: "Then I will tell you the truth. There have been frequent earthquakes in the cave recently. The state requires every city and county to set up a warrior combat brigade. Our county needs to organize a team of 100 people."

"We are calling you all here this time because we hope you will actively sign up."

Although the warriors present had heard the news more or less before.

But when this really becomes a reality, of course I am a hundred percent unwilling to do it.

Someone in the crowd raised his hand and said, "County Magistrate Shi, everyone has important tasks to attend to, so how can they have the time to join a combat team? Changtu can't even afford to form a combat team, right?"

"Indeed, we have a lot of business to do and the company's headquarters is not here, so we really can't spare the time to come back and join the team."

"Anyway, everyone is very busy. If Changtu is really facing a shortage of funds, we can raise funds for donations. 100,000 or 80,000 yuan is not a problem."

"That's right, is there anything that money can't do?"

"If it doesn't work, we can just find a few from other counties to fill the gap, and we'll pay for it."

……

Everyone was talking one after another, as if setting the tone for today's events.

In short, you can pay the money, but don’t even think about letting us bosses suffer and join a combat team!

We became warriors not to join a combat team.

It’s about the country’s welfare and policies!

However, Shi Yong was not impatient. He smiled and said, "Don't worry, I didn't force you to join the team. It's a voluntary thing. But..."

He changed the subject and said, "I wonder if you have noticed that except for those who are absent, all the people invited today are from Changtu."

"Ok?"

Some people looked puzzled. After all, not everyone who left Changtu would move their registered permanent residence. The people present still had Changtu registered permanent residence.

Shi Yong went on to reveal: "Recently, the higher authorities issued a new administrative document, the key point of which is that in the future, martial artists will be subject to a dual management system, that is, joint management by the government of the place of residence and the government of the place of household registration."

The crowd was still confused and asked what this meant.

Shi Yong patiently explained: "To put it simply, after the dual management system is implemented, everyone needs to return to Changtu every year for an annual assessment."

"Ah? Year-end assessment?" Everyone looked surprised.

Shi Yong smiled but said nothing until everyone's questions died down, then he further explained: "Starting next year, all warriors of social rank three and below will need to undergo an annual assessment at their place of registered residence."

"Warriors above the third rank can freely choose a location to participate in the assessment. Warriors who pass the assessment will continue to enjoy the existing privileges and preferential policies. Those who fail the assessment will either be re-assessed at a lower rank or have their warrior status revoked."

"What? Assessment?"

"What is the content of the assessment?"

"It has always been like this, why do we suddenly have to add more tests?"

"This is unfair. It's a combat team and an assessment. Isn't this bullying?"

"Don't you want to live your life? Why are you torturing us?"

The crowd suddenly exploded with discussions.

Shi Yong still smiled and answered patiently: "The assessment is mainly based on the true attribute strength and martial arts skills. As a warrior, if you don't even have basic combat power, how can you be called a warrior?"

"In addition to notifying you of the year-end assessment, there is another requirement: starting this year, all warriors must take one month out every year to attend a local training camp! Of course, martial arts college students, military personnel, and warriors participating in national scientific research projects are exempt."

"However, the test is not difficult. As long as you spend a little time practicing martial arts, you can usually pass it smoothly. The reason why we have called everyone here is to avoid misunderstandings about the new policy. We need to explain it to everyone in detail."

"Today, society is quite critical of the privileges of warriors, believing that some warriors have not demonstrated corresponding strength but have occupied a large number of resources. Therefore, in order to ease social conflicts, the government has decided to strengthen the constraints on warriors and appropriately raise the standards for quality assessment."

Shen Bei was not too surprised to hear the news, after all, there had been rumors about it before.

However, he did not expect that the government would specially convene a meeting and have the local top leader personally explain the policy.

In his opinion, this seemed to be an overreaction, but on second thought, compared to directly issuing documents for enforcement, this method did leave everyone a buffer period.

However, Shen Bei underestimated the government's determination, and the so-called "buffer" did not actually exist.

Everyone was surprised to hear this, and some even questioned whether it was reasonable for them to attend the training camp when they were over 50 or 60 years old.

Taking out one month out of a year is not a small amount of time for them.

Someone immediately objected: "County Magistrate Shi, we have accepted the annual assessment and can practice and prepare at home. Now you are asking us to attend a one-month training course. Is this really necessary? We are no longer students and we all have busy work matters to deal with."

Shi Yong smiled and said, "If you don't want to attend the training camp, it's very simple. You can just give up your status as a warrior. It's that simple."

Then, County Magistrate Shi raised his voice and said angrily: "We asked you to participate in the training, not to send you to die. If you react so strongly, then if the country forcibly recruits you to join the war in the future, won't you be more likely to turn the table and rebel?"

Someone once again objected: "We have no intention of rebelling. It's just that the government did this without considering or consulting us warriors. It's really outrageous."

Shi Yong's tone gradually became serious, and he emphasized every word:

"This is a clear order from our superiors, and everyone must follow it! We will notify everyone, whether they are present or not."

"Some people may pretend not to know and not receive the news, but don't forget that the announcement document will be announced to the world."

"Also, some warriors have used their privileges to do something, and I know it very well. In the past, I might have turned a blind eye to it, but now, everything must be settled!"

"In the past, the government treated you well because it hoped that you would serve the country and contribute to society. Now it seems that many people seem to have forgotten this original intention and only know how to take without considering giving back. I would like to ask, is this practice fair and reasonable?"

Faced with this sudden change, everyone was talking about it.

But Shen Bei nodded slightly. He had never expected that the pace of reform would be so rapid. Shi Yong was now pushing for the implementation of all this with a tough and resolute attitude.

However, for those who are unwilling to accept, they have no choice but to comply - the consequence of refusing training is to be cancelled as a warrior, which is fair to everyone. Even if the news spreads, ordinary people will applaud.

After some soft and hard tactics, Shi Yong saw that the atmosphere was a little tense, so he smiled and said, "Don't worry too much. In fact, this matter is not as difficult as you think. The training will not make you feel painful. It is just like attending some senior management training courses. It is not a completely military management. You can handle daily business, communicate by phone, and hold video conferences."

With Shi Yong's comfort, everyone's emotions gradually calmed down.

One month is indeed not a short time, but if it is divided into four sessions, each lasting only one week, most people think it is still acceptable, and it is not like being in prison and unable to contact the outside world.

While participating in the training, you can also handle company business.

Furthermore, the gathering of many warriors can not only enhance the relationship between each other, but also perhaps take this opportunity to expand their network and open up the market.

As Shi Yong said, this is quite similar to the training courses that corporate presidents attend in real life.

Everyone could only comfort themselves. After all, they were not as strong as others and their fists were not hard enough. If they did not want to give up their status as warriors, they had to abide by the new regulations.

The purpose of today's gathering was mainly to announce this important decision. As for issues such as the formation of the team, personnel arrangements, and funding gaps, Shi Yong did not mention them. Obviously, the Changtu government has made preparations to properly handle these issues.

Similar "tea parties" are being held all over the country.

Although a small number of warriors were dissatisfied and indignant.

I vowed not to join the combat team or training camp.

But "persuasion is not as good as a pickaxe"

What awaits them will be ruthless crackdowns from the state.

Most warriors can only swallow their anger and have to join the combat team for the sake of their warrior status.

The warriors from Changtu County were not in high spirits, and left one after another in silence.

Shen Bei also seized the opportunity to escape.

But Jian Shan grabbed him and said, "Hey, don't go. You still have things to do."

Shen Bei spread his hands: "I'm a student."

"Stop pretending to be confused, come sit down and let's talk."

Shen Bei naturally knew what Jian Shan wanted to talk about, so he said directly: "How about I recommend an instructor to you?"

"Who?" Jian Shan asked curiously.

“Gu Xinrou!”

Jian Shan: ...
