Seeing her so discouraged, Ren Zhong decided to comfort her, "But my Brain Reaction Index is ten thousand eight hundred, surpassing Fourth Level. So I do have my strengths. You didn't lose unfairly, Teacher Ma."

"Oh my goodness, such a high brain response! That's not scientific!"

Ren Zhong retorted, "There you go again, do you understand science?"

"I don't."

"Then how do you know if it's scientific or not?"

Ma Xiaoling nodded in surprise, "That's true. Wait a minute, anyway, you have to be open-minded. But your actions have no delay at all! How did you do it?"

Ren Zhong shrugged, "I designed a new combat command system to simplify the instructions. I watched a lot of videos of Cold-blooded Butcher's battles and became familiar with his fighting style. I pre-planned tactical maneuvers."

Ma Xiaoling: "Uh... is that even possible?"

Ren Zhong grinned and took out a pre-prepared set of tactical command instructions, projecting them in front of Ma Xiaoling, "Look, he has many habitual small movements. Every time he powers up to change direction, there's an obvious difference in the way his feet bend. My set No. 115 is specifically for when he lunges left and then zig-zags to attack my right side. This is..."

Ma Xiaoling stared wide-eyed for a long time.

Ren Zhong asked her, "In short, I planned it all along, I studied him thoroughly. Do you understand? Actually, I think you can also..."

He didn't intend to keep it to himself.

Now that Starfire Town was saved, Ma Xiaoling would still serve as the town's Guard Captain, and it would be beneficial for him to help Teacher Ma become a bit more powerful.

He wanted to contribute to Ma Xiaoling in the field of combat.

Unexpectedly, Ma Xiaoling shook her head like a rattle, "No! I can't! I'm getting dizzy! Goodbye!"

She ran off at high speed.

Watching her disappear at lightning speed, Ren Zhong sighed deeply, thinking, it's really too much to ask Sister Ma to use her brain.

...

Zheng Tian's fingers flicked, sending one sunflower seed into Ren Zhong's mouth after another.

Zheng Tian asked, "Brother Ren, what's your plan for next? Last time when we went to Qi Mountain, Shi Xuan was very concerned about the quota for the townsfolk, wanting to know roughly when it could be settled. He didn't want to ask you directly, so he kept asking me."

Ren Zhong shook his head, "It's not up to me to decide. Let's see how much Old Ma can negotiate back. Of course, in the past half a month, we've already made the maximum effort. Hopefully, the Tanggu Group will make a statement on their end. Hmm."

What Ren Zhong was referring to was the change brought by the "New Town-Level Resource Recycling Company Management Measures" to Starfire Town.

After completing the militarization, setting up training measures, establishing a shuttle system, launching an incentive scheme, and having Zheng Tian organize a team to clear out the Second Level Ruined Beasts around Rat Cliff Mountain and killing the Descending Demon Baby, the Ruined Beast hunting industry in Starfire Town indeed experienced a qualitative change, with production capacity tripling from before!

In addition, Ma Dafu has been promoting fertility measures. Information from the town hospital indicates that the number of newborns expected next year will increase significantly.

Now, Ren Zhong is a radiating point, indirectly affecting the production and life of all Starfire Town residents.

The work-for-relief projects that Ren Zhong vigorously promoted have also greatly improved the living conditions of the lower-class scavengers in Starfire Town.

Although not everyone could get a job, those fortunate enough to get paid on the construction sites would still spend their money, allowing more people to earn money.

Among the scavengers in Starfire Town, initially, a portion of those relatively well-off appeared. The money in their hands circulated, gradually changing the once lifeless atmosphere of the small town.

Moreover, some of the scavengers, whether by chance or initiative, quickly completed their initial capital accumulation with Ren Zhong's support, becoming the more advanced "middle class."

These people naturally have needs for improving their lives. They engage in activities such as renovating houses, hiring people to clean resources, purchasing new second-hand clothes, buying new appliances from the supply and marketing cooperatives, selling off replaced equipment and appliances cheaply, fulfilling certain desires, hiring chefs, dining at restaurants, among other economic activities.

The more active economic activity brought the small town, originally in the depths of despair, tremendous change in a very short period.

All these factors were bonuses in Pu Cha.

Of course, Ren Zhong knows that these are just temporary fixes.

Under the harsh grip of a 10% transfer tax, if he doesn't keep investing his own money to inject new life, within a few years, the town would return to its former state.

The scavengers in the small town would unknowingly find themselves getting poorer.
