Re-Birth Of A Genius. Creator/Destroyer
chapter-1347

"I am listening," Giyon said as she gracefully picked her wine glass.

"It is actually a system I used myself in my own organizations. It has two things one should consider and I don't know if you would agree with my ideas. They are not orthodox and it would take a lot of time and money as an investment."

"I am fifty years older than you Sam. I might have done more unorthodox things than you think."

"I am pretty sure you didn't." Sam said with a chuckle and continued.

"One of the foundational things about my organization is the talent recognition and recruitment. Actually, all the big organization makes some fundamental mistakes. They always try to recruit talented people when their talents are fully shown out. They will wait until their potential is out there for the world to see and sometimes, they even wait until they are completely matured.

The main reason for that is they don't want to waste time and money on someone who might not mature and realize their own potential."

"Well, isn't that correct? The resources could be better used in another place with much better odds."

Sam smiled and replied.

"That is why I told you it is a mistake. Ms. Giyon, you tell me. Would you recruit me under your wing if I couldn't get my body back and permanently stuck in this crippled body?"

"Of course, yes. You are worth more than your body."

"Why is that? After all, I wouldn't be able to work with all the elemental energies I previously used. I wouldn't have the same battle prowess and I definitely wouldn't have the same versatility I had before."

"But you are still smart and your experience is worth more than you think. You are creative and innovative and I don't believe that you feel disadvantaged in this new body. You are just as confident as before."

"That is right and why do you think that is?"

"What do you mean?"

"Why do you think I have all those qualities you mentioned. The qualities that make me worthwhile."

Giyon doesn't have an answer and didn't know what to say.

"Not many people know of this, but I was trained by someone when I was just a little kid. They wanted me to train as an assassin and wanted to make me as versatile as possible and do you know what they did? They didn't just grind me on killing techniques, they left me free for half of my training. They made me learn everything I wanted to learn, they made me train in everything I wanted to train, and trust me, I was the best assassin they had ever trained and these are their exact words.

They realized that my core strength is not my physical prowess, rather my learning ability and they let me train in every skill I wanted and they made use of those skills and made me use those skills to better my assassination plans.

Ninety-nine percent of my assassinations were done in such a way that the person who died didn't even know for the last second that they are dying. They never saw me or my approach. They just died without even knowing that they were being killed and I walked away from that like nothing happened."

"What do you mean by this? What are you trying to say?"

"What I am trying to say is, all the organizations are trying to recruit a specific set of talents instead of trying to utilize the talents in the way they want.

You are all trying to recruit the best fighters, best formation masters, best artisans, and such. You are waiting for their skill to bloom and will start fighting over him at a high price. But in search of this, you are missing a lot of valuable people in the process.

The method I am about to tell you would be in conjunction with the academy idea I gave out to Vydon. But that academy idea is a half-baked one. What I am about to tell you is the complete one.

The first step in this plan is to build an orphanage and let every orphan from infants to the age of fifteen join, along with that start another orphanage for the people who just awakened and cultivated until Acolyte or Novice stage.

For the kids in the first orphanage, start teaching the basics."

"What basics?"

"Basics of everything. Basics of elemental energies, spiritual energy, the artisan work, the formations, inscriptions, the basic fundamental laws of nature. How fire is made? Why Ice is cold? Teach them from the most basic things until they are fifteen and in this time, you give them food that would nurture their body with bare minimum spiritual energy.

The amount that would only benefit them and not destroy them.

After they are awakened, test them for the elemental affinity, the nature of their spiritual cores, the physical body constitutions. Their talents in different things and their interest in different things.

Give them a basic curriculum and then train them in their interests. Try to align their talents with the interests they have.

Instead of trying to grow them into something that is useful to you, let them grow and think of ways to make use of what they are growing into.

The results would be amazing. You would gain the most loyal subordinates you could ever have."

"This is all good in theory, but don't you think this is a bit impractical?"

"Impractical? How do you think I established my organization? Half of my main forces are formed from this method.

The curriculum I designed along with various experts in various fields. You wouldn't believe the type of contributions that they made.

I have people who don't know how to fight at all, the bare minimum they could do is defend themselves, but they can create an architectural building in a day that could defend against the attacks of a cultivator that is at least five times more powerful than them.

I have a person who knows nothing but giving massages, but I wouldn't trade her for a hundred top-notch fighters. Just her presence and her techniques not only made her able to train a hundred more people with a decent skillset, but she also helped the fighters and other cultivators relax and improve their conditions by a long shot.

Some of her massages can even clear some severe muscular injuries. But if you place her in a battlefield with her peers, she would be dead as a rock in three seconds.

But her presence in the rear end increases the efficiency of battle by fifty percent because of her involvement in the training.

I have healers that couldn't kill a beast for a meal.

I have a painter who uses his fire elemental energy and he could scorch a dozen of his peers within three minutes.

I suggest you take upon this method and you will see some serious improvement in your forces within a few years. I will give you the curriculum I follow in my own organization for this."

"Then what is the second part of this method?"

"Rewarding people.

You should reward these people for every achievement they have."

"That is a common practice, everyone rewards their subordinates for a good job."

"That is not enough. You should make them competitive. Competitive enough to use their skills to the fullest, competitive enough to explore their own talent more and more, but not competitive enough to backstab their friends.

I have a system called the Patent system, that helps with the people on the creation side. They can design anything and they can give the prototype to the experts in the department if the product is as useful as they described and it has practical application, the department will give them a certificate.

A document stating the usefulness of the patent and they would get rewarded with money every time the product they created is used."

"Does that mean, if my subordinate creates a poison and I use it, I would be paying him for that?"

"Yes. Not just that. If you sell that poison to someone else, you would be paying them a share you get. And the share wouldn't be decided by you, it would be discussed between you and them. And the patent system is just one of them.

There are still many things you need to do.

For example, you need to create competitions. After you established the academies, you should create competitions within each academy and then a competition between the academies, regions, and many more.

You should make them compete in difficult things and reward them generously enough for them to push themselves harder.

The mistake many organizations do is paying people high prices while recruiting them. This might ensure their arrival, but this also inflates their egos.

They would feel self-important.

In my method, you pit them against each other.. You will reward them generously but they would know that they need to earn it, they would have to understand that there are a lot of people close on their tail to catch up."
