My family only has enough food for a few days, and we have to spend a lot of money every day to buy food from the supermarket. Prices are so high, and we businessmen don’t have cash on hand. I’m really struggling right now.”
Tung Chee-hwa's face looked a little unhappy.
Dong Qingqing sniffed the aroma of food coming from the house and sneered, "Uncle Zhou, stop crying poor. I don't know who stews meat and cooks at home every day. If you don't want to borrow it, then don't borrow it. You still have the nerve to cry poor to us..."
Zhou Jianghai's expression changed, and he said coldly: "Qingqing, you are a college student after all, how can you speak to your elders like this? Besides, I cook my own dishes, using your fire and your meat? Why are you talking so sarcastic!"
Dong Qingqing was stunned.
Tung Chee-hwa quickly pretended to be stern and criticized him a few times: "Your mother has really spoiled you, kid. You are so rude. Why don't you apologize to your Uncle Zhou?"
Then he turned to Zhou Jianghai and smiled apologetically: "Dahai, don't argue with a child like her."
Dong Qingqing's face flushed red, she was embarrassed and angry, and she couldn't utter a single word of apology.
Zhou Jianghai didn't argue with them and said coldly, "Jianhua, I have something else to do. Excuse me."
After saying that, he closed the double security doors, almost hitting Tung Chee-hwa's nose.
Dong Qingqing's lips trembled with anger: "Dad, how dare they do this, how dare they!"
From childhood to adulthood, she has always been the center of attention wherever she goes. Unexpectedly, she was insulted by her old neighbor!
Dong Jianhua was more cunning than her. His face was gloomy, and he stared at the Zhou family's security door, but he still used a soothing tone: "Let's go back."
"dad!"
"go back!"
Tung Chee-hwa looked at Dong Qingqing sternly. The latter was frightened and dared not say anything anymore. He returned home in shame.
Tung Chee-hwa took another deep look at the Zhou family before turning around and going back.
This time when he came back, he actually had a bad start.
Yesterday he went downstairs and took a walk, only then did he realize that before he came back, the boy from the Qi family downstairs had already done several great things and was very prestigious in Building 5. Everyone unanimously elected him to be the building manager.
He was very regretful. Although the position of building manager was a lowly position, even lower than that of a small official, he had always been a far-sighted person and had long seen that the country and the government could not continue to sell food at high prices.
In the future, supplies will become less and less, and people’s savings will disappear. We can’t let so many civilians starve to death, right?
Moreover, the government began to forcibly requisition goods from major department stores and manufacturers as early as the flood submerged two floors of the building. Combined with the previous food reserves, it seems that the government still has a large amount of supplies. It is impossible that the situation on the supply ship is like that with only a few foods and daily necessities.
Then, it can also be inferred that the government is preparing for more severe situations in the future.
Therefore, it is certain that survival supplies will be distributed free of charge to survivors in the future.
Then, the building manager will have a lot of say in important matters such as material distribution and ship rental in the future.
With his own abilities, he became the building manager, in charge of the distribution of materials for the entire building, which means he was also in charge of the human and material resources of the entire building.
But unexpectedly, after coming back a few days late, Qi Mingyu got there first.
And the Zhou family is also difficult to deal with.
Thinking of the plan vaguely emerging in his mind, Tung Chee-hwa sneered.
A dozen days later, the water reached the fourth floor.
But there is one good news, that is, the rain seems to have become lighter. It used to be heavy rain, but now it is a relatively gentle drizzle.
Everyone was hoping that as long as the rain stopped, the water would recede and life would return to normal.
But Zhou Shuwan looked very serious.
These days, they and Qi Mingyu went out every night to look for supplies as usual. According to the original distribution principle, whoever found the supplies would take two-thirds, and the remaining one-third. If two families found the supplies together, they would split it equally.
