Pei Qian continued, "As for opening a store, don't rush. Take your time."

"If you feel unprepared, then prepare more. If you think the plan is immature, then spend money to make a few more plans. Even if you regret it halfway, you can tell me and we can overturn it and start over!"

"In short, don't be afraid of making mistakes. This task doesn't have any rigid targets or particularly strict time constraints, so what's there to worry about?"

"The only requirement is to complete at least one experience store within six months."

"That is to say, by February of next year, you must open at least one experience store, and there can't be any experience stores still under construction, understand?"

Tian Mo nodded, "Understood. This requirement is very lenient, but..."

Pei Qian interrupted him, "Since it's so lenient, what's the 'but'?"

"Uh..." Tian Mo was momentarily speechless.

This requirement was indeed not difficult, and it had some flexibility.

If he wanted to be cautious, he could focus on one experience store, from site selection to finding a designer and renovating. With sufficient funds, starting trial operations within six months wouldn't be difficult.

If he wanted to be more adventurous, he could even arrange two experience stores simultaneously, but in that case, Tian Mo would have to travel frequently between the two cities.

Tian Mo thought about it, and with his current abilities and level, opening one experience store first would be good enough.

As for why President Pei required that there be no experience stores under construction in February?

Perhaps it was to train his planning ability?

Even if the preparation was a little slow, there must be a clear deadline, and it couldn't be delayed indefinitely.

Originally, Tian Mo felt that being the person in charge of this experience store was good enough. Even if he did this one job for the rest of his life, he would be very satisfied.

But obviously, President Pei wasn't satisfied and wanted to give him more tasks so that he could receive further training.

Tian Mo originally felt that his abilities were insufficient to take on the task, so he subconsciously declined, but then he thought, wouldn't he be disappointing President Pei's good intentions if he kept declining like this?

He would also be giving up his future career development plan.

Thinking of this, Tian Mo nodded, "Okay, President Pei, I'll do my best. If I don't do well..."

Pei Qian smiled slightly, "Then it doesn't matter."

"Remember, there are only two requirements: first, spend more money; second, it must be completed before February. Even if you just find a store, renovate it a bit, and start trial operations, you must never delay it past February."

Tian Mo nodded, "Okay, President Pei, I've got it!"

"Then I'll go arrange it now."

...

After settling the matter of the experience store, Pei Qian took a car again to the Suffering Travels special training base in Jingzhou.

This special training base was located in an industrial park on the outskirts of Jingzhou. The location was relatively remote, but the entire building was very large and impressive.

This was Pei Qian's first time here.

After all, he was very confident in the Suffering Travels industry.

Because Pei Qian knew very well that Bao Xu would never think about making money from this industry; he only wanted to arrange for a few more enemies to travel and suffer.

However, even though he was confident, he still had to take a look after the special training base was prepared.

Mainly, he was afraid that Bao Xu might have overlooked something, that the suffering wasn't sufficient. Pei Qian came to remind him to increase the intensity a little.

After getting out of the car at the entrance of the venue, Pei Qian looked up. The venue was quite impressive, covering an area of an estimated seven or eight hundred square meters, and the height didn't seem to be quite 20 meters, probably five or six stories high.

Pei Qian was originally not very satisfied with this location because he thought it was too remote.

Being remote meant lower rent and lower expenses, so how could he spend more money?

But then he thought that if it were opened in a more prosperous area, the rent would indeed be higher, but the probability of it becoming popular would also be greater.

Pei Qian considered it. There were risks either way, so he didn't object to the location.

Now, seeing the entire venue, Pei Qian was quite satisfied.

Mainly because it was big!

How many internal employees of Tengda could participate in the special training? Even if it was open to the public, there probably wouldn't be many people signing up. Although the location was remote, the venue was so large that the rent shouldn't be cheap.

Moreover, with a large venue, there probably wouldn't be a shortage of various suffering projects inside.

Bao Xu and Sa Ziran were already waiting at the entrance, leading President Pei inside.

Walking through the main entrance, Pei Qian looked around, "What was this place used for before?"

Bao Xu answered truthfully, "It was originally a factory building, but after it was rented and renovated, it became a rock climbing gym. After a period of time, because the traffic was too small and it couldn't recover costs, the rock climbing gym also closed down."

"Ziran and I saw that this place was suitable for practicing rock climbing. The previous rock climbing gym had already been renovated, especially this simulated landscape rock wall, which was very good and could be used directly. In addition, the site was relatively large, which was convenient for future expansion, so we rented it."

Pei Qian nodded, "Not bad."

It used to be a rock climbing gym, and it went bankrupt? That was a good sign.

The entire venue was very empty and open. After entering from the main entrance, directly opposite was a huge simulated landscape climbing wall nearly 20 meters high. There were also some shorter artificial rock walls around it, which were obviously left over from the previous climbing gym.

There was a big difference in appearance between these two types of rock walls. The largest rock wall was a simulated landscape rock wall, which looked like a real rock wall in nature, fully restoring the texture characteristics of natural rock walls. The shape was very rich, and climbing it was probably no different from climbing a rock wall in the wild.

According to Bao Xu's introduction, this kind of rock wall was not cheap to make. The process was more complicated. Resin and fiberglass had to be laid layer by layer on a double-layer base plate, and finally, resin and quartz sand slurry were sprayed to roughen the surface. It was processed layer by layer to meet the strength required by the project.

Obviously, the rock climbing gym had also invested a lot of money at the beginning, but it still failed to escape the fate of closing down.

As for the other artificial rock walls, they were purely composed of alloy rock panels, steel frame structures, professional fulcrums, and other parts. They could also simulate climbing surfaces of various difficulties, such as vertical walls, overhanging walls, and eaves. Moreover, the fulcrums could be adjusted at any time to simulate different routes.

This kind of rock wall looked like an ordinary wall, without the realism of a landscape rock wall, but it was perfect as a rock wall for novices when they first started training.

In addition, it was also equipped with various safety equipment, including safety ropes, protective gear, all-round sponge pads, etc. People were not allowed to climb over the 4-meter-high red line without wearing a safety rope.

You could climb, and naturally, you could also use ropes for rappelling. These training projects could be adjusted at any time according to needs.

Pei Qian nodded slightly, "Well, not bad. Rock climbing is an essential survival skill in the wild, so of course, you have to train well."

"What about the other areas?"

Bao Xu introduced, "The original rock climbing gym made the other areas into artificial rock walls, which was convenient for a large number of tourists to experience climbing. But we don't need so many artificial rock walls, so we only kept this part as the climbing area, and the other areas are used to train other skills."

As Bao Xu spoke, he led Pei Qian inside.

"Currently, the entire special training base can be roughly divided into several different areas."

"The climbing area is the area we just saw."

"The physical training area is mainly for basic physical training, including endurance training, strength training, balance training, flexibility training, etc."

"The learning area is mainly for learning professional knowledge of survival in the wild. When you're tired from training, you can come here to learn and understand this theoretical knowledge."

"The living area is mainly for training how to set up camp in the wild, build shelters, chop wood, make fires, skin animals, find food, etc."

Pei Qian looked at it. The area that took up the largest area in the entire venue was obviously the climbing area he saw when he first entered, followed by the physical training area and the living area.

The learning area was the smallest, more like a small conference room with only twenty or so chairs, a lectern, and a projector.

There were also some wild health protection products here, such as medicines, bandages, etc. Obviously, there would be content in this area during teaching.

The physical training area had a small amount of fitness equipment, but it was significantly different from the equipment in the gym. Obviously, the focus of the training was different.

When doing endurance training, you need to carry a backpack for weight training. In addition, frog jumps, weighted squats, single-leg balance, dynamic balance, and a series of special targeted training will be arranged to simulate the situation in the wild.

The physical training area has a small area dedicated to archery targets, bows and arrows, which should be a place for shooting training.

Pei Qian also saw the cobblestone walking area he had emphasized, which was used to enhance the load-bearing capacity of the soles of the feet, so as to prepare for climbing mountains and walking on dangerous roads in the future.

The content in the living area was even richer. There was training in setting up tents, as well as training in chopping tree branches to make fires or building shelters; there was training in eating compressed biscuits, as well as training in personally slaughtering prey and grilling meat.

In short, the practical skills required for survival in the wild were all practiced here.

Pei Qian was a little puzzled, "Since there are compressed biscuits, why is there content on personally slaughtering prey?"

Sa Ziran explained, "President Pei, this is to meet different training requirements."

"In terms of eating and living, our training is gradual."

"In the beginning, we will arrange for trainees to eat some compressed food and quick-heating food; then, eat compressed biscuits and dried meatloaf; and finally, personally slaughter wild game and cook it."

"The problem of living is also the same. At first, we live in tents, and then there are no tents. We have to build our own shelters and sleep in sleeping bags, and then there are no sleeping bags."

"Training in this gradual way can allow everyone to adapt step by step."

Pei Qian glanced curiously at the prepared food samples, inside which was a gray-white thing that looked like a brick: "Is this the dried meatloaf you mentioned?"

Bao Xu hurriedly reminded, "Yes, President Pei, but it is not recommended to try it. This thing tastes like dog food mixed with cardboard."

Pei Qian's curiosity was immediately extinguished, and he silently retracted his hand.

It could be seen that Bao Xu had put a lot of thought into arranging things for enemies like Huang Sibao.

"Not bad, overall it is very satisfactory."

"But... do you think there is still greater room for improvement in the future?"

Pei Qian was already very satisfied with this special training base.

But this did not prevent Pei Qian from pursuing a better plan to spend money.

Sa Ziran was silent for a moment and said, "If we want to improve it further... then we can only go to a special outdoor venue for training."

"But that would be even more troublesome. We need to comprehensively transform the outdoor venue, which is almost the same as building an eco-park from scratch."

Pei Qian's eyes lit up.

This was good!

It sounded like it would cost a lot of money!

But there was no need to worry about this matter. This indoor special training base could be used first. After a while, when the situation of Suffering Travels stabilized, it would not be too late to invest in the construction of a large-scale outdoor special training base.

Moreover, there was an advantage to this, which was that no one could escape class!

Pei Qian could foresee that some employees would definitely shirk their responsibilities and avoid training during the training process, claiming that they were unwell.

For such employees, forcing them to go to the wild would still be somewhat dangerous.

But if it was an outdoor special training base that he set up himself, then there would be no problem, and safety would definitely be guaranteed!

First, screen them at the indoor training base. Those who were in good physical condition would be sent to travel around the world. Those who were in slightly worse physical condition should not even think about running away and would be sent to the outdoor special training base to continue training.

In short, not a single one could be missing, and he would arrange everything for them clearly!
