Saving System: Calm Down, My Fleeing Host!-Chapter 201: Establishing the Rules

After dinner, Cheng Xiaoxiao came to the center of the team. Because many people were injured and unable to move easily, she stood in the middle so everyone could hear her.

"First, I want to say that from now on, our team is like a big family. We will support each other, move forward together, face difficulties unitedly, and share the good fortune."

As soon as she said this, everyone clapped, and many men shouted with booming voices.

The village chief raised his hand to signal everyone to quiet down, as Xiao still had more to say!

What’s getting everyone so excited?

"First of all, we are throwing away previous ideas about identity. From now on, everyone is a member of this big family. Here, we do not differentiate between high and low status; we speak based on ability. Those who are competent will shine eventually. Those who lack ability and shirk work will have a hard time in the team, so don’t blame anyone else."

Everyone expressed their commitment to demonstrating their value.

"Alright, let’s now assign specific tasks since we only have 132 people. First, per everyone’s request, I will be the team leader, primarily responsible for coordination."

For a moment, everyone whispered among themselves, confused about what coordination meant as they had never heard of the term.

So they directed inquisitive looks at the village chief.

The village chief pretended not to notice; he didn’t know either, as he hadn’t heard the term as well!

Thus he said, "Let’s have Xiaoxiao explain it to everyone."

Originally, Cheng Xiaoxiao thought of substituting it with an ancient term, but after consideration, didn’t find a suitable one.

Hence, she didn’t change it. After all, she had many new terms, and they would have to get used to them gradually. 𝗳𝗿𝐞𝕖𝘄𝗲𝕓𝗻𝚘𝚟𝕖𝐥.𝚌𝕠𝕞

Like her family, who learned a lot from her.

Especially Erya and Cheng Jia. Speaking of Erya, it’s time to change the name along with the rest, since they’ve become refugees. There’s no point in keeping those clan rules.

"Coordination, simply put, is similar to what Grandpa mentioned yesterday. During emergencies, when everyone is unsure how to choose, I will provide advice, or if there are too many choices, I will help select the most suitable one.

Also, in case disagreements or different opinions arise within the team, we can consolidate them for discussion and adopt the best option."

Everyone roughly understood; it’s just a matter of following Xiaoxiao’s arrangements, isn’t it?

Isn’t it the same as before?

Sounds so profound, still called coordination. One that gets guidance from the Bodhisattva is indeed different!

Of course, that was the thought of the villagers of Qingshan Village.

Old Man Gui stroked his beard, deep in thought. This term was quite fresh, encompassing planning, statistics, and arrangements. Not bad, not bad. He didn’t expect Xiao not only to be strong in combat but also to have leadership abilities and courage. It’s hard for outsiders to imagine a group of grown men eagerly listening to a young girl giving orders.

If he hadn’t heard a lot about Xiao’s gossip these days, he wouldn’t have known his rescuer was a remarkable woman.

Seeing everyone understood, Cheng Xiaoxiao continued, "Naturally, having me as the team leader means we have departmental captains. Here, I recommend a few people. Let’s discuss whether they can take on the role. Of course, if you have better candidates, please bring them up, and we can decide together.

Firstly, the best in martial arts here is Uncle Beiniu, so I propose he be the Patrol Team Captain, organizing a patrol team to ensure everyone’s safety."

No one objected, as Cheng Beiniu was indeed the most suitable candidate.

"Secondly, each captain will have a deputy captain; the Patrol Team Deputy Captain will be Uncle Dawei. When the captain is absent, the deputy will arrange related matters."

Cheng Dawei scratched his head nervously, "I don’t know anything. I’m afraid, afraid..."

"It’s alright. Who is born knowing how to do everything? Uncle Dawei, you can learn more from Uncle Beiniu."

"But..."

"No buts. Does anyone have objections?"

Looking around, it was good—no one opposed.

Cheng Xiaoxiao spread her hands, helplessly expressing that everyone agreed, making his opposition invalid.

Of course, the group wasn’t thinking that way. They just said they wanted Xiaoxiao to lead the team. If they jumped out to oppose her now and Xiaoxiao decided not to do it anymore, what would happen?

So whether he became the deputy captain or not was inconsequential.

As their thoughts lingered, Cheng Xiaoxiao continued speaking, "The Finance Department Captain will be the village chief grandpa, mainly responsible for managing public money, both income and distribution, as well as handling supplies organization and procurement. Right, also including work points statistics and Contribution Points performance assessment."

The scene turned into an uproar, suddenly filled with noise.

"Everyone, please don’t get worked up. Let’s first complete the arrangements for each position, and then discuss the issues of work points and performance assessments."

It became quiet again, "Since finance belongs to the community’s public property, I’m sure village chief grandpa, being righteous and a scholar, will manage it very well. However...

for fairness and justice, two deputy captains have been appointed—Uncle Tianbu and my second brother. Although my second brother has yet to be found, I believe it won’t be long before we meet again. Plus, both my second brother and Uncle Tianbu are child students, and everyone is familiar with their character. I trust they can take on the responsibility."

Upon hearing these words, Liu Juan couldn’t help but lean on Cheng Qiang’s shoulder, crying softly!

She had been uneasy for the past few days, worried due to not seeing him for a day. The family didn’t mention him in front of her, fearing she might become overwhelmed. Today was the first time hearing Xiaoxiao mention her second brother.

When Xiaoxiao said they’d meet again soon, Hao’er is surely safe. She should be happy, yes, she shouldn’t frighten herself.

So she wiped her tears and continued listening attentively.

Cheng Qiang was surprised by how quickly his wife seemed better, still somewhat astonished.

"What kind of look is that?"

"No, nothing. We listen to Xiaoxiao, listen to Xiaoxiao." He dared not show any look, worried she’d start crying again and it’d be endless, making it troubling for him.

Cheng Xiaoxiao had thought it over carefully. The financial sector was crucial. If it were only the village chief, other people might secretly harbor opinions, since the village was previously divided into two factions. Including Uncle Tianbu was a consideration in this regard, and when it came to financial matters, one might not know the details, but should have a grasp. Entrusting it to her second brother would be most assured.

Her second brother not only had the best talent among their family but was also extremely meticulous. Any attempts at financial manipulation would definitely not escape his attention.

Thus, the financial matter was settled.

But Uncle Tianbu seemed a bit uneasy and wanted to say something, but was cut off by Cheng Xiaoxiao, for the same reason she used with Uncle Dawei.

Uncle Tianbu was the grandson of Fifth Uncle, now 30 years old. A few years ago, his wife died in childbirth. His daughter died of illness at 2 years old, and he has not remarried since, focusing solely on taking care of his daughter.
