Siheyuan: Bringing Warehouses to 1959
Chapter 1422 Holy Land and Saints (1)
Patterson's life is pretty good. He has been vaccinated. Because California is a neighbor, he has received a lot of prevention and control supplies from Xiaobu.
In addition to vaccines, a large number of ventilators and masks were also provided.
However, these three important supplies, vaccines and ventilators, are mainly used by the rich and powerful, while ordinary people can only get masks.
Regarding the dissatisfaction of ordinary people after they were unable to get vaccinated, Patterson and Xiaobu attributed it to market behavior. They told ordinary people that the vaccines were bought and of course they had to be sold.
In this way, even if ordinary people have complaints, it is difficult for them to vent them to the government. Who can they blame if they are incompetent?
It’s different now. As the saying goes, there is no harm without comparison. Injections are free in California.
Ordinary people cursed the shitty capitalists while trying to find a way to get to California.
So Carson City was empty.
For Patterson, Carson is empty and there is no problem with people running to California. The problem is that this mobility has completely destroyed the prevention and control situation that Patterson had previously arranged.
Because Nevada is close to California, Paterson has made great efforts in prevention and control. Checkpoints have been set up on roads in various cities, and illegal movement is strictly prohibited.
"We have the army working with you, and you can't even guard the intersection," Patterson lashed out at the local police chief. "California has the worst virus control in the U.S. If so many people go there, they won't be able to get vaccinated. If they come back and bring the virus with them, our state will be doomed."
Patterson obviously did not realize the deeper intention of Zeng Wangcai's move and was still worried about prevention and control rather than public opinion.
"Sir, the army won't listen to me," the police chief said, feeling frustrated. "Besides, we don't have many soldiers here, and there are too many roads to manage."
"I'll send more troops to help you!" Patterson ordered with a sullen face. "Next, you must tighten control and prevent anyone from passing through. Most importantly, prevent anyone from coming here."
"Night market..."
The problem extends beyond Carson; it's present in all cities bordering California.
Patterson was unwilling to give up the order he had established with great difficulty, so he started flying non-stop, flying from one city to another, starting with the worst-hit cities.
It's like building a fence!
At the same time, Mane's people expanded the defense circle according to Zeng Wangcai's request. The original San Francisco has become the current defense circle based on San Francisco and three or four cities outside have joined together to expand the defense circle.
Zeng Wangcai's bulletproof MPV was driving on the road, with the Hummer vehicles leading the way in front and following behind being those of Mane's elite troops.
The soldiers in the Hummer were all on high alert, fearing that some idiot would suddenly appear and attack Zeng Wangcai's car.
Today is the day to receive the families of soldiers from the army. This reception activity has been going on for several rounds and will continue as the defense circle expands.
There are more than 200,000 troops, and the number of their families has reached more than one million according to statistics.
At the same time, today is also the first time that Zeng Wangcai and his team publicly released the special medicine, which is also a show.
"Sir, there are too many people coming to our place right now," Mane, who was sitting across from Zeng Wangcai, said worriedly, "We can't accept so many people other than family members. Should we stop for a while?"
Mane receives reports every day about how many people are circling outside Luca and are unwilling to leave.
As more and more people come, those who come will inevitably feel disappointed when they see that others can get in but they cannot, and disappointment will lead to impulsiveness.
"Have you published the notice I asked you to publish?" Zeng Wangcai didn't answer the question. Instead, he asked, "Not only should the notice be published, but it should also be implemented. I want to know how many people are willing to act according to our notice."
"The notice has been released, and the vast majority of people are willing to listen to us, but they also have demands. They hope to obtain our protection, including priority use of vaccines and medicines." Mane replied, "I have promised them and sent people to arrange the reception. But sir, even if we have their support, it is not enough to accept so many people."
"We have to accept it even if we can't!" Zeng Wangcai thought for a moment and said, "Now is the most critical time. We want to build California into a holy land. The first thing we need to do is show our attitude. Let's build a square warehouse outside each road checkpoint..."
Square warehouse?
What the hell?
Mane naturally couldn't understand what a square warehouse was. After Zeng Wangcai explained, Mane didn't believe that a temporary place that could accommodate so many people and also have treatment functions could be built in a short period of time.
And not one.
"You're so stubborn!" Zeng Wangcai lectured him. "It's just a temporary solution. It doesn't need to be permanent. A tent will do. The most important thing for us is to show our attitude, to go all out, and to use technology to maintain order. Don't worry about that. Just be a saint."
The car arrived at a roadblock where at least tens of thousands of people gathered outside.
The army maintained order on the scene and separated family members from outsiders.
A team of soldiers drove out to the open space and began setting up equipment.
In less than half an hour, a temporary stage was set up and faced all outsiders.
The army began to guide the tens of thousands of people and gather them in front of the stage.
At this time, Mane had already learned the lesson from Zeng Wangcai and understood what he was going to do next and the role he was going to play.
He walked onto the stage with a look of pity on his face and approached the podium on the stage. There were several microphones on the podium, making it look like a press conference.
Because of the development of self-media, Mane often appears on the rebels' Matrix account for publicity needs, so many people know him.
The outsiders have gone through so much hardship to come here, and naturally they hope to get help. The vast majority of them have been infected, and are lucky enough to have survived, but are afraid of dying. Another part of them have been infected, but have not received help before the first wave of symptoms has appeared.
Although supplies are in short supply, test strips are easy to obtain.
Those who were not infected did not dare to come over and instead hid in places they thought were safe, trembling in fear.
"Life is priceless!" This was Mane's first sentence.
He finished this sentence and did not continue, letting the phrase reach everyone's ears through the loudspeaker and be digested.
A full minute later, Mane spoke again: "God bless you to come here. I am here to announce one thing. Everyone who comes here, no matter where they come from or what their beliefs are, we will do our best to rescue them, but our ability is limited. Everyone who comes here needs to cooperate with us. Take out your mobile phones, scan the code in the hands of the soldiers, download the program, and follow the prompts..."
Tens of thousands of people took out their phones and downloaded apps while coughing.
flow?
Now they just hate that the Internet is not fast enough.
The scene was very chaotic at one point, and not everyone knew what to do according to the instructions.
At this time, the army soldiers came on the scene again. They divided the scene into several areas and slowly explained to the visitors the policy of "collect all that should be collected."
The time was almost up, and the data feedback from the backstage came in. Zeng Wangcai in the audience signaled Mane to continue and release the last big bomb.
"You are all concerned about the cost of our treatment. I said at the beginning that life is priceless. We will provide everyone with vaccines, medicines and medical services free of charge..."
At this moment, a saint was born.
