When the staff heard this question, they said directly: "No, each person can only change once at the port."

Before he came, he heard Tian Yi say in casual conversation that these people didn't even have the chance to exchange new currency, and they only exchanged a little in the hope that they wouldn't starve to death in the new city. How could he understand what he meant? He just didn't want to give them a second chance to exchange.

Manager Li and his colleagues felt a sinking feeling in their hearts, and were very worried about their lives this week, especially Manager Chen and his companions. They only had 400 yuan, and they had spent more than 200 yuan on accommodation alone, leaving them with more than 100 yuan. They also didn't know whether the food here was expensive, and they had to leave 10 yuan per person for the boat fare.

Several people stayed in the new city that night.

On the other side, Li Feixue and 32 people got off the boat and took a car to the accommodation area.

There were several tables outside on the roadside, and there was a queue in front of them.

Li Feixue quickly asked everyone to line up first, and then she went forward to see what the process was.

When I went up to ask, I found out that we need to register here and then take a photo for ID.

Because there were so many procedures, the process was very slow. Even though they were the first group of people, it still took half an hour for more than 30 people to complete the process.

Looking at the long queue behind, Li Feixue deeply understood what it meant to be one step ahead and always ahead.

It was precisely because they left home early that they were able to get on the passenger ship. Not only was it comfortable and safe, but it was also the first ship to arrive at the port, and they were also the first people to disembark and board the bus. This was how they were able to complete the formalities before dark. Just looking at the team behind them, Li Feixue estimated that it would be midnight by the time everything was done.

But this is not Li Feixue's business. She is only responsible for the 32 people she brought. Holding the key, Li Feixue led everyone to a building. This building was also built by the same batch. It has not been put into use yet and was allocated this time.

Li Feixue arranged everyone one by one, and then told them to follow the instructions of the staff here tomorrow. Then she said goodbye to them and left, returning to her dormitory.

"It's so beautiful," Li Wenting said to herself while looking out the window.

Her window just faced the harbor dock, and the bright lights in the distance looked like stars in the night sky.

She also came here with Li Feixue. Her family was not poor and her father was a government employee. She came here more to escape.

Because an American officer stationed in Singapore took a fancy to her and wanted to take her away to be with him for a while.

Such words were absolutely unacceptable in a traditional family like Li Wenting's. She even thought about committing suicide.

But later I heard from a distant relative that there was a place recruiting people with high salaries and good benefits.

Li Wenting said something to her mother and packed her bags and ran away. She would never commit herself to a white man. Now that she had settled down, she finally felt at ease. Everything was developing for the best. She looked at the lights in the distance. The brightness of the port illuminated her future path, which was no longer as dark as it had been a few days ago.

After being on the boat for two days, no one had gotten enough rest. Now that they had settled down, no one felt like getting together to chat, so they all went straight to bed.

The next day they woke up from this sleep, and they were awakened by the sound of a loudspeaker downstairs.

Hearing the notice from below informing the new arrivals to assemble in an hour, Li Wenting hurriedly got up and washed up.

This type of dormitory building has one living room and four bedrooms, and each room has an independent bathroom.

Last night, I was so tired that I went to bed without even looking around the room. Now, the day has dawned and the room is brightly lit by sunlight.

Li Wenting was quite satisfied with her living environment. Although the room was relatively simple with just a bed, desk, bookshelf and wardrobe, and was much smaller than the room she lived in before, she was very grateful that she still had a safe little house in her most difficult time.

Entering the bathroom, it is still simply furnished with a shower, toilet and washbasin.

Seeing that she could take a shower here, Li Wenting's eyes lit up.

Two days of traveling on the boat made her feel very uncomfortable. She originally planned to find out where she could take a shower, but she didn't expect that it was right in her own bedroom.

By the time she was humming a song while washing and scrubbing, half an hour had passed.

This was the fastest speed she had ever run in her life. After all, she had to go downstairs to gather together, so she didn't dare to delay too long.

She put on her clothes, tidied her hair, and went straight downstairs. The building was inhabited by women, and when she went downstairs, she saw people coming out of the rooms from time to time and going downstairs with her.

Everyone would stop for a moment when they saw Li Wenting. Even though they were women, they were still surprised by Li Wenting's appearance.

Her delicate facial features and elegant clothes make her look like a fairy from heaven.

Li Wenting didn't feel embarrassed at all. She just smiled and nodded to everyone and said hello without delaying her move to go downstairs.

She lived on the third floor and soon reached the downstairs.

Following the sound of the horn, we arrived at a small square.

There are already quite a few people gathered here.

At first glance, you can see that most of the workers this time are women.

Because it was the first time, many poor families did not allow their girls to sign up. After all, it was too far away and they were afraid of danger.

It was not until the information from those who returned home to visit relatives that they realized their safety was guaranteed, and that's why they sent their daughter here to work.

More than ten thousand girls gathered together and the chattering could not be stopped.

The few base members in the front just sat there and did not stop the voices talking below.

It was not until the time was up that the base members stood up, picked up the loudspeaker and said, "Those who have arrived should line up. Those who are late will have one yuan deducted from their wages."

After saying this, he put down the handheld loudspeaker and stood there without saying anything, just looking at everyone quietly.

The people below looked at each other, not knowing what to do.

When Li Wenting saw this scene, she knew which people wanted to see how organized the people in the team were. Li Wenting hesitated for a while, considering whether to take the lead. After all, she only came here to seek refuge and did not really want to develop here.

However, considering her appearance, Li Wenting still feels that she should take the lead. Only excellence can make her safer.

Li Wenting, who graduated from Nanyang University, has good organizational skills and was even the main organizer of many student marches.

She walked straight to the front, stood in the middle, and then said to the bewildered people next to her, "Men stand on my left and line up in turn, and ladies stand on my right and line up in turn."

When the people below saw someone taking the lead, they started to do what she said.

The male and female teams quickly separated, and Li Wenting kept adjusting everyone's positions.

After everything was done, she returned to the middle and stood still.

The members of the base above saw what Li Wenting did and found her information. They could find her at a glance with her photo.

After all, a woman with this appearance is eye-catching even in a photo.

Seeing that it said that she graduated from the Medical Department of Nanyang University, and that such a highly educated woman came here to work as a worker, he was very curious about Li Wenting.

However, after seeing the allocation table written below as the Industrial Zone Hospital, I thought about it and picked up a pen to change the allocation location.

Under the gazes of everyone, the members of the base explained to everyone the rules, welfare and other matters of the place, explaining that they could rest in the dormitory today and eat for free at the port restaurant with their ID cards.

The allocation list was then posted on the notice board.

After the staff left, the people below were still standing there, and Li Wenting took the lead and walked to the bulletin board to look at it.

Because there were more women this time, Li Wenting saw that a large number of them were assigned to textile factories or logistical support units of various factories.

But when she found her name, she was stunned for a moment, because her assignment was very special. The others were all assigned to ports, steel mills, new city docks, and various factories in the industrial zone.

Only she was assigned to Xincheng Hospital.

This special assignment cast a shadow on her heart.
