Huacang has kept the construction of the giant temporary shelter secret from the public.

But there is no impenetrable wall in the world.

I don't know when, but rumors started spreading below.

Why Are Flowers So Red?: "Do you know? The temporary shelter Huacang is secretly building is almost finished. What does this mean?"

Crushing everything: "What does it mean?"

Why are flowers so red?: "This means Hua Cang might not be able to defeat the alien civilization, so they've already prepared a retreat. By then, those powerful people will all run away to the shelters, and nothing will happen to them. It'll just be ordinary people like us who will suffer."

Jia Jia: "Damn, this is really possible."

Very delicious: "Isn't there news that a giant shelter can accommodate a million people? They won't abandon us all, will they?"

Why are the flowers so red?: "Haha, you believe this? Is it so easy to build a giant shelter that can accommodate a million people? @Very delicious."

The man stopped talking immediately.

It took a while for someone to notice that something was wrong.

What this person said may not be wrong.

They really could be abandoned... and this was not groundless.

…

Not only on the Internet, but also in daily life, some rumors have begun to prevail.

It became a topic of conversation among some people in private.

Officials from all over the country were afraid that the matter would get out of hand, so they quickly ordered the arrest of those who spread the news.

This had some deterrent effect.

But they are still worried... worried about some unexpected situations.

After all, many examples have proved that blindly prohibiting things will only have a counterproductive effect, which will only increase the dissatisfaction and suspicion in the hearts of most people.

…

Chai Su had long anticipated this situation would happen.

Expressionless.

"I understand. Let's go down."

This is a test for Hu Zhan and his team.

A real test.

If it is not handled properly, we will lose our composure before the enemy arrives.

Trillions of dollars were spent on building these shelters...

Is it worth it?

The national treasury is already a bit tight now, and a lot of money has to be spent on construction in other areas.

This thing is right or wrong.

No one knows, even Chai Su doesn't dare to make a conclusion easily.

All of this is just as he said, everything is prepared for a rainy day.

The previous estimate was to build eighty underground shelters that could accommodate tens of millions of people at a time, with an estimated cost of over three trillion dollars.

But as it stands now, only half of the fiscal budget has been successfully completed and it is already stretched.

"well."

Chai Su sighed softly.

…

Because of this incident, Hu Zhan announced a meeting

All the senior officials from all parties arrived, without a single one absent.

The meeting begins.

They had a heated discussion.

"We can't do this. Once it's made public, it will cause panic among the people and have the opposite effect!"

Indeed, even the top leaders of Huacang did not think they could repel the Gothic civilization, and the people were more likely to panic and cause uncontrollable events.

"If we don't disclose it and blindly suppress it, it will only make the public distrust us. A gap is a small matter, but if some people with ulterior motives take advantage of it and incite the ignorant public, it will be more likely to cause uncontrollable incidents!"

They discussed it for a long time but couldn't come to a conclusion.

Whether it should be made public or not is a very serious question.

Hu Zhan suppressed the heated discussion in the conference room.

"Let's vote..."

Once the voting results come out, even Hu Zhan will have no choice but to abide by them.

Unless Chai Su comes in person to tell them that this method doesn't work and that he doesn't agree with their approach.

Otherwise everything will be a foregone conclusion.

…

The final voting results are in.

The two sides were separated by only one vote, and in the end they chose to publicly confirm the news of the underground shelter.

The results of the meeting vote were sent to Chai Su.

Chai Su stared at the results of the meeting's vote on the proposal, remained silent for a long time, and finally just sighed.

Signed his name on the document.

Even though he is no longer the supreme leader of Huacang, all major state affairs must be approved by him before they can be implemented.

…

"Regarding the underground shelters that have appeared in many places recently, we can confirm that they really exist."

"Then why did you arrest those people? Because you admitted with your own mouths that this was not a rumor!" A reporter began to ask tricky questions.

"Because they have made remarks that deliberately discredit the Cangzheng government, we absolutely cannot abandon the people at this critical moment. This is not only a sign of cowardice, but will also be absolutely despised by the world."

"How many people can a large-scale shelter accommodate at one time? How long can the equipment inside support people?"

"Preliminary calculations show that each giant shelter can accommodate one million people at a time. It has complete infrastructure and can accommodate people for at least three years."

time.

This is a very sensitive topic.

"Why only three years? Are you confident that you can drive alien civilizations off our planet within three years?"

The man was silent for a moment, then said.

"Yes, I am here to assure you that we have the confidence and our military has the confidence to drive the invaders out of our homeland within three years."

"How many underground shelters has Cangzheng Prefecture built now?"

"Forty-three, and the subsequent work will continue to advance."

Everyone present was shocked.

Does this mean that more than 40 million people can now live in these cities?
