After Black Lotus became a reborn person, he went completely crazy
Chapter 662: There is no other way out except to defend
Then, at Xia Ran's request, the group went directly into the big tent that Wang Changhe had prepared for Xia Ran.
The space here is large and spacious.
There are several large stoves set up in the tent to cook porridge.
Xia Ran didn't know what politeness meant, so she said directly: "Everyone wash your hands, come and sit down, and help tear the jerky while we talk."
After saying that, she took the lead in washing her hands, and after wiping her hands, she started to tear the dried meat, which stunned these people.
"Try some of this jerky. It's made from yak meat and is very fragrant. Eat it to replenish your energy."
Wang Changhe quickly poured some tea for everyone and brought it over.
Seeing that Xia Ran was so down-to-earth and particularly to his liking, Captain Li was no longer polite.
"Comrade Xia, you can do this. This thing is not cheap, how can you bear to give it to everyone to eat."
"I am a businessman, and I originally planned to buy it and sell it at a high price, but I haven't had the chance to sell it yet.
Isn't this what happened? Nothing is more important than human life. We have to prioritize.
Although I love money, I hope that everyone can live well. "
Xia Ran spoke the truth with a smile while busying herself with the work at hand.
Xia Ran spoke the truth, and it sounded particularly sincere to these people.
Seeking profit is the nature of businessmen, and being willing to pay and contribute when encountering big things is the shining point of human nature.
Captain Li ate some dried meat, it was so damn delicious.
His anxious mood calmed down, and he joked: "That means Boss Xia will lose a lot of money."
Xia Ran followed Captain Li's joke and replied: "That's not true, it's really delaying my chance to make a lot of money.
So we must succeed in fighting the flood, otherwise it would be a shame for the hard work I put in."
"You're right. With united efforts and one mind, we can definitely defend this dam," Secretary Wang agreed happily.
"Eat more. We still have some dried meat. Only if you are healthy can it play the role of a stabilizing force.
Don't be polite, and don't lose the big picture for the small. Eat more during this break, or you won't have time to eat when you get busy."
Xia Ran couldn't empathize with the behavior of people who were reluctant to eat the food and had to give it to others.
Only when you are full can you have the strength to work. You can't pick up sesame seeds and lose watermelons, otherwise the gain will be counterproductive.
"Okay, it's up to you."
These people had just come down from the embankment and were already starving.
Especially Captain Li, they have been working for three days and two nights in a row, and he dare not rest for a moment.
There were two flood peaks yesterday and water was surging in several places.
They used up all their energy just to block these places, and were busy until dawn today.
Finally we managed to hold on.
Today is relatively good. Everyone is just strengthening their existing foundation and can finally relax a little.
Secretary Wang rushed over from the embankment in other places in the afternoon.
Since I came here, I have been busy at the embankment with the local people, and my body is no longer able to take it.
After all, I'm getting older, and now I'm relying on my energy to keep going.
Secretary Wang then briefly introduced the current situation here.
To put it in one sentence, nearly 200 million people have now moved to this levee.
What Xia Ran saw was only a part of it.
And these people need food and drink, they lack everything and need everything.
The grain hasn't even had time to be harvested yet and it's already become like this.
Many household items and poultry were washed away by the flood, and ordinary people have nothing now.
Secretary Wang's original plan was to leave directly for the next place after arriving.
When he saw the rich man Xia Ran arriving, he immediately changed his mind.
I plan to stay a little longer to see if I can gain anything else.
When Xia Ran heard the population of 200 million, she felt under tremendous pressure.
And this dam must be defended.
Because to the north is the Huaibei Plain, to the east is the Jinpu Main Line, and to the west is the Fuhuai Railway, no mistakes can be made in these places.
If this place is lost, even the surrounding coal mines, power plants and other cities will be endangered, and the losses will be immeasurable.
Therefore, for the moment, there is no other way out except to hold on.
Xia Ran started thinking in her mind, she didn’t know when the flood would end.
But what she can be sure of is that it has definitely not reached the peak yet, which means that the most terrifying and difficult times are still to come.
Because our country's second-in-command came here to direct the disaster relief efforts and just left.
Xia Ran vaguely remembered that the situation was so serious that even the top leader had to go to the front line to personally direct the disaster relief work.
If that was the case, then the things in her hands should not be distributed.
Instead, we should set up more food supply centers and manage them in a unified manner.
We can selectively distribute tents, quilts, clothes and other items.
She should just focus on all the people and infants working on the front lines; she can’t take care of anything else.
Thinking of this, Xia Ran said: "Can you lend me your phone so I can make a few calls?"
Secretary Wang was just about to agree on behalf of Captain Li, but when he turned around, he saw Captain Li sitting upright and falling asleep.
Maybe I'm too tired.
It may also be that there are several stoves burning in the tent, which makes it particularly warm and makes people feel sleepy.
Xia Ran and Secretary Wang walked out of the tent with light steps, went to the command point and started making phone calls one by one.
In addition to tents, large pieces of plastic tarpaulins, quilts, rice, flour, grain and oil.
What is most lacking is charcoal and equipment that can purify water.
Xia Ran asked his people to purchase a batch of charcoal and gauze and send them over for a rough filtration first.
We will then look at it and give it a secondary processing.
What is most lacking right now is clean water that is safe to drink.
Xia Ran did ask people to stock up on mineral water in advance, but with so many people there was no way to share it, it was just a drop in the bucket.
Tomorrow, when everyone is unloading the goods, she will sneak in another batch of brown sugar.
If you get some ginger, you can make ginger sugar water for everyone to drink.
“Secretary Wang, that’s enough for today. I’ll need a lot of manpower to help unload the things tomorrow morning.
I thought about it and decided that we should not separate the food and drink, but set up several logistics points.
Organize local people to cook for those on the front lines of the war, and give priority to those on the front lines and infants.
I will just give out some quilts and the like when the time comes, I may not be able to take care of more.”
"Okay, okay, Comrade Xia, this is very, very good.
I'll tell the village chief and the captain later and ask them to follow your instructions."
Secretary Wang was extremely excited when he heard this, for fear that it would disturb Xia Ran's thinking. This was already very, very good.
It is impossible for them to put the survival issues of so many people on the shoulders of a kind-hearted person.
Xia Ran continued: "I am afraid of getting sick after the flood. I do have some basic medicines here, but they need to be used under the advice of a professional doctor.
Secretary Wang, can you find a good and reliable doctor to take charge here?"
