Wei Chunhua slammed the table and gritted his teeth. “Shi Shaochen, Ying Chengya!”
If he remembered correctly, a metahuman brought these two children here out of the kindness of his heart.
Back then, in order to let the child in, he had even left half a cart full of drinking water. Wei Chunhua and Shi Shaochen argued with each other if young children should have to pay for any supplies at all, so he had a deep impression of it.
In the end, what did Ying Chengya say? If they were to make an exception for these two children, would they have to make an exception for more children and people with more difficulties?
She even said that it was unfair to normal people and even metahumans. Once this rule was broken, it would cause countless problems down the road!
However, the metahumans present didn’t show any dissatisfaction. Ying Chengya spoke with conviction, using so-called fairness as a weapon. Shi Shaochen also agreed with her.
Wei Chunhua couldn’t shake their decision, so he didn’t bother about it anymore.
Now that he thought about it, if he had been a little tougher back then, this poor child would not have died!
If the supplies hadn’t been taken away by Ying Chengya, the people outside wouldn’t have fallen into such dire straits!
The boy’s silent grief lowered the atmosphere in the meeting hall to a freezing point.
Compared to the others, Tang Susu calmed down much faster. She looked around. Other than the 50 people who had come to the meeting last time, there were now five people from the Wind Squad, 10 people from the Victory Squad, and about 30 people who had been selected by Uncle Wei who had some experience and strength. They stood behind the 10 representatives from the common people, and their expressions were especially solemn.
“Uncle Wei, let’s get down to business.” Tang Susu interrupted him from indulging in his guilt. Uncle Wei was an empathetic leader, and that was why she liked and will interact with him. However, as the director of the shelter, he couldn’t be empathetic all the time.
Wei Chunhua quickly adjusted himself and asked the doctor to take care of the two children. Then he stood up and walked to the front of the conference table.
In an instant, the hundred or so people who were present all restrained themselves and sat upright as they looked at him.
“Let’s cut to the chase. Changshi City isn’t that far, but it isn’t that close either. In view of the current situation, however, the faster we get there, the better. Otherwise, I’m afraid we won’t even be able to get anything once the lion’s share has already been taken away!”
Everyone put on a serious expression. No one dared to believe that they could always find something out of luck.
Perhaps it was fine in the next three months, but what about half a year later? Would it still be possible after a year? How about five years? No one dared to think any further.
“Compared to the resources in the surrounding areas that are becoming scarcer, Province A is famous for its food production. There are all kinds of food-manufacturing factories there, especially in Shichang City. There are five instant noodle factories, three bread factories, all kinds of fast food, dry food, canned meat, canned vegetables, canned fruits, bacon, ham, chocolate, and all kinds of beverages…”
Everyone was drooling as they listened to his list, especially the canned meat, vegetables, and fruits. It could be said that not only could they satisfy the human body’s nutritional needs for fat, protein, vitamins, and other nutrients, but they could also serve as various seasonings.
Wei Chunhua stopped and waited for them to finish mumbling among themselves before continuing, “Not only is there an abundance of food, but the variety is also quite vast, and most of them are preserved food. Canned food, for example, has a shelf life of several years because it’s sterile and they don’t even have any preservatives added. In terms of freshness and nutrition values, they are no different from those that are freshly picked.”
“Enough, sir! We’ll go! We’ll go immediately. Just tell us what to do, alright?” Some were so impatient that they wished they could fly over immediately.
“That’s right. Which route to take, who will go where, who will do what, how to transport them back, where to go exactly, what to look for, and how to deal with the various situations… There are too many things to consider. I wonder what are your plans for these?.” Lao Yao asked all the right questions in one go.
Wei Chunhua looked at one person below, his expression showing that the person had his complete trust.
“I don’t have any specific arrangements. As for what to do, we’ll have to improvise on the spot. I will leave this to the person leading the team. This person is the most suitable candidate that I have selected based on all kinds of factors. Everything will be up to this person!”
Some people who didn’t know what was going on looked around. They didn’t know who he was talking about. They were both excited and worried. A good leader would play a decisive role in the success of this operation!
Some guessed that it was Liang Jun who had a calm personality and outstanding abilities, while others thought it was one of the managers..
