Resurrection Empire

Chapter 1127 436: Time Flowing Naturally

His achievements today are the result of his own capabilities, and indirectly demonstrate that the system established by Ren Chongjian inherently favors those with moral virtues.

Ren Chongjian: "Zhou Guanyan, I'm planning to establish a theory research department in the academy. Help me select candidates when the time comes."

Zhou Guanyan: "Research what?"

"Research rules and regulations. The Ren Corporation has now fully encompassed the First Continent, and the Moral Judgement Committee led by my partner Xiao Ling has already begun some preliminary enforcement work. But this alone is not enough. I want to establish a comprehensive set of detailed rules regarding all interpersonal interactions within socio-economic life, such as ownership of property and assets, intellectual property rights, creditors' rights, healthcare, food safety, military management guidelines, and so on. We need to manage these details."

Zhou Guanyan, shocked, said: "That's a huge workload. We'll need experts from various fields."

Ren Chongjian: "Yes, that's why I'm planning to assign this task to Starfire Academy."

After a moment, Zhou Guanyan asked again: "Also, I believe someone needs to oversee and coordinate everything. My work managing the academy is already quite heavy and demanding; I'm afraid I can't take it on. Will you take charge personally, Ren?"

Ren Chongjian shook his head. "I hope what's presented to me is already a usable finished product. I will only be responsible for the final step of approving the finished product. The person overseeing everything needs to be chosen separately. Who do you think is best suited? Huo Donghua? Former Governor Du Lei? Or perhaps Tang Tu, who is currently in charge of the trade department?"

While speaking, Ren Chongjian also activated his wrist watch's management system, searching these names.

But suddenly, his expression froze.

In his management system, Du Lei's name was accompanied by a box.

This indicated that Ren Chongjian's fellow inmate at Source Star's Second Prison was already deceased.

Ren Chongjian clicked on this box to check the detailed information and discovered that about eight months ago, Du Lei had already passed away.

He only lived to be thirty-nine, dying while serving as the Chief Governor of Huaihai City.

He wasn't ill; it was just that he was too responsible for his work and overworked, which led to his early death.

Actually, Ren Chongjian's management system had given him a notification at that time, but he was too busy to notice and did not attend.

Others just assumed he was too busy to deal with trivial matters like these, and to avoid disturbing him, only Du Lei's family, as well as Hua Yuelan, Huo Donghua, Qian Wangshen, and other prison mates organized a funeral for Du Lei, quietly sending away this remarkable Governor without notifying Ren Chongjian individually.

This matter only rippled through Ren Chongjian's life now.

Ren Chongjian closed his eyes, recalling Madafu's full head of white hair, Wang Zhaofu's increasingly wrinkled round face due to his loosening skin, and Shi Xuan's increasingly bent back.

He reflected on the sharp edge of time's blade.

He can rescue anyone from unexpected events, yet is powerless against the "assassination" by the time assassin.

He's beginning to gradually sense the taste of loss.

Ren Chongjian thought, from here on, such things are certain to happen repeatedly.

"Ren? Ren, are you okay?"

Zhou Guanyan called out beside him.

Ren Chongjian came back to his senses. "It's nothing. What did you say just now?"

"Recently, Miss Hanyu Chen has been leading a team at the academy to refine the Demolition Master's knowledge system. I've been following up on this project. I believe Miss Hanyu Chen has remarkable talent in coordination, logical thinking, and meticulousness. She also has her own unique perspectives on several fields like people's livelihood, economy, and military. I can even say, aside from you, Ren, and Mr. Sun Miao, she might be the third smartest person here. I think she can fully handle this position."

Ren Chongjian paused, recalling the girl who, under extremely unfavorable external conditions, relied solely on absorbing scraps of knowledge, who was always holding a tablet to read wherever she went, and had become a Fourth-Level Demolition Master.

Now, in the realm of expertise, Hanyu Chen has reached the level of a Level Nine Demolition Master. However, limited by physical talent, she can only wield Seventh Level demolition gloves, restricting her proficiency to the Seventh Level.

Ren Chongjian hadn't expected that Hanyu Chen would find another way to bring her talents into play.

Just like Du Lei's death, everything in Source Star society flows naturally.

Everyone under Ren Chongjian's command, even without his orders, will always find their own stage to shine and contribute.

"Alright, I'll go talk to her."

Ren Chongjian thought to himself, it really has been a long time since I had a face-to-face conversation with Miss Hanyu Chen.
