I survived with my sister in the doomsday

Chapter 88 Building Manager Meeting

After counting the number of people in each household, Liu Changsheng pretended to be very serious and concerned and asked the residents on each floor what difficulties they had. He also took out a notebook and took notes.

The young wife who was breastfeeding on the 13th floor was called Zhang Hua. She immediately came forward, stretched her neck and shouted that her baby had run out of purified water to make formula milk, and the water distributed by the government contained too many impurities and could not be used to make formula milk for the baby.

The 7th, 6th and 2nd floors are all occupied by elderly people. The old lady on the th floor has two children around seven or eight years old. They also said that they have no food at home because the supermarket is too far away and they are too old to carry water or other things.

Zhong Meiyi's two beauties also complained coquettishly that they did not have much cash after coming to this place, resulting in their current inability to purchase things, and there was not much food left at home.

When the other residents heard this, they also started to complain. After everyone had talked for a while, basically everyone had difficulties. The three of us just stood there in a daze, not saying anything.

Old Liu asked everyone to calm down, and advised that the disasters and difficulties were only temporary, and everyone should not be so excited or nervous. At this point, Old Liu suddenly changed the subject and said to me: Xiao Huo and Xiao Bai's families on the 17th floor, you two families have sealed off the top floor, and there are solar panels, which only ensure that your family has sufficient electricity, but you can't ignore the residents downstairs!

The government is still providing electricity, but the power supply is not all day long, only from noon to 10 p.m.

It's obvious that Old Liu wants to bring the matter to our two families. This may be his purpose.

Then he went on to say, "I heard that you have a lot of mineral water at home. The government does not have much ability to support everyone with mineral water now. Can you take out your mineral water and distribute it to users in need first?"

I knew that the purpose of his meeting was just for our two families!

After he brought the incident to our house, the residents all looked at us, waiting for our response.

I'm not stupid, so I immediately went up to him and asked him what's the difference between our two families and other families? We paid for the installation of the battery panels ourselves, and you can install them on your large balconies, so why are you only focusing on the roof? Besides, we paid for waterproofing on our roof, so of course we have to maintain our roof. It's a drought now, but if it rains in the future, will you help us with waterproofing? And about the purified water, you don't have it at all, so why do you say we have it?

Suddenly, Zhang Hua on the 13th floor pointed at us angrily and shouted: They must have a lot of purified water at home!

Sun Zhibin on the 15th floor also echoed: Yes, that day I heard the old lady in their family sent her grandson to ask for purified water from their family, and she also said that they had a lot of good water, all piled up in their house!

I retorted: You can't just listen to it. If she says there is something, does that mean it is true?

Old Liu suddenly said in a sinister tone, "Xiao Huo, do you mind if we go to your house and take a look?"

Ouch! Why did he say that? I sneered: Do you want to confiscate my house? Do you want to rob me?

Old Liu immediately changed the subject and said in a tone that sounded like he was negotiating but in fact he did not allow any objection: Xiao Huo, you can't say such harsh words. It's not that we want to search your things. Now is a difficult time. People should not be so selfish. You also saw that Zhang Hua, a young mother, needs purified water to make milk for her child, and the rest of us don't need it. If you have some, just sell her a few bottles. When this difficult period is over, I will report your good deeds to the neighborhood committee, and when the supplies are distributed from above, your family will be given the first share.

After listening to him, Zhang Hua also shouted like crazy: Yes, let's go to his house and check, he must have water!

Xiaobai and I were both furious, but I suddenly remembered a sentence I had read before: if someone wants to manipulate you, don't fall into her trap and fall into the vortex of self-proof. You must be sober. Once you make this matter into something that involves everyone's interests, the group of fence-sitters who originally wanted to profit from it on the side will be led to your side!

I stopped Xiaobai, stepped forward and said: We are still living in a society ruled by law, so searching a house is illegal, right?

Lao Liu started to act again: We don't want to search your house, but we want to give useful supplies to those who need them more. We don't mean to rob you. You are exaggerating. He laughed awkwardly after saying that.

I replied contemptuously: I agree with this proposal! Everyone should take out the extra supplies. For fairness, we can't just search our house. We are all decent people. For fairness, we should move out the supplies from each family and store them on this floor, and then distribute them equally. I think we should start with the building manager's house. Let's go upstairs!

At this time, many people were silent, including Lao Liu. Everyone could pretend that they had no supplies at home, but if they were to search house by house, who would be willing to let others search their house? No matter how few things there were at home, they were still their own things, and if they were taken out, they might not belong to them anymore.

No one is stupid, and no one can trust anyone.

Lao Liu also wanted to propose that everyone put all their stuff in his house so that he could manage it. Who would do that? It's okay to harm the interests of one person, but no one would agree to harm the interests of everyone.

When Lao Liu saw that everyone had fallen silent, he pretended to sigh and then revealed his real purpose for the day. He wanted everyone to pool some money with him, and then he would be responsible for negotiating with the government and buying some items under government control. He would use the remaining money to reward residents who fetched water every day.

I found it even more ridiculous when I heard it. Wouldn't people buy it? And give you all the money?

At this time, the man on the ninth floor shouted: "If you can only harm the interests of everyone as the building manager, then it doesn't matter whether you are the building manager or not. We don't need you as the building manager." I found that the first person to question Lao Liu was also this man. He was tall and looked to be about 40 years old. He had a bad temper. I don't know what he did before, but he was tougher than us.

Liao Hannan on the 4th floor also said that if they were only going to talk about these things today, he didn’t want to talk about them anymore and he would not get involved in them. After saying that, he went back.

Oh, I suddenly realized something. No wonder these people are rich. Everyone's brain is not given in vain. People who can afford expensive houses are really smart. They are not like ordinary people who do nothing. Maybe they will be fooled by Liu Changsheng with just a few words. It is impossible to fool these rich people!

So now Liu Changsheng began to regret it. There was no benefit in taking this job. He really had nothing to do but to coordinate this group of people with his mouth.

At this time, several residents left, including Fan Rong from the third floor. The beauty was gone.

In fact, the elderly people living opposite Liu Changsheng's house look really pitiful. On the sixth floor, there is even an old lady with two children. They have no ability to carry water. The weather is hot, the children are young, and they are old. There is really no way for them to push water or buy food. This has indeed caused great difficulties in their lives.

But if we are simply asked to pay, even if we are willing to do it, we are not the savior. There are more than ten households in this building, how can we help? It's like Zhang Hua didn't give her water and she already hates us. She has created so many obstacles in this short time. If we help others today, but don't help or can't help tomorrow, we will be hated to death. It's better not to help from the beginning!

Liu Changsheng finally had no other choice but to grab the three of us and ask us to help carry water to the elderly on several floors.

I wonder: why was this job given to our two families?

Old Liu answered me confidently: The reason is very simple. We occupied the roof and laid a large area of ​​battery panels. There is also a car charging station at home, so we can drive to fetch water.

They also planned to install a larger water tank on our car to deliver more water to everyone at one time. Otherwise, he would definitely find a way to bring all the men in the building to remove our battery panels, because the rooftop also belongs to him and other residents!

I thought about it, actually our two families don't really need so much electricity, and the extra energy will be wasted if it is not used. If this is the case, it is not impossible to give some to others, although helping others is a bit silly in this era.

I discussed with Xiaobai and Linlin and planned to allocate some energy from the solar panels to supply a battery pile installed in the lobby on the first floor. The residents of the entire building can also charge their electrical appliances. However, if they do not have enough, it will not be our fault.
