If there had been no natural disaster, we could have contacted the Food Safety Office or the Health Bureau, but now these departments are gone, and the neighborhood committee is too busy with its own affairs to take care of these things.

The two men discussed, and Yang Jie suddenly spoke up, "Why don't we contact the police? They first destroyed the Dragon Slayer Society, and then they took down two private bases, and returned the seized materials to the people. This requires the cooperation of many departments.

Even if it is not their responsibility, as long as they tell us which department to contact or contact the relevant department, it is better than us running around like headless flies."

The two also thought this method was feasible, "You are really smart."

He Tianming said, "Old Yang, how about we go there tomorrow? If this is true, it might save a lot of people. We all came from a prosperous time, and we even received municipal benefits not long ago. I'm afraid I'll feel guilty if I keep it secret."

"Okay, let's take the squid with us tomorrow."

After the decision was made, Yang Weimin asked He Tianming, "Jiang Ning saved my life, what do you think we should give him as a thank you gift?"

It's not easy for any family these days. The Yang family can only eat until they are 50% full, and the father and son are as thin as sticks. What good things can the family have as a thank-you gift?

As old friends for two years, He Tianming did not hide anything and spoke his mind, "I think Jiang Ning is not a calculative person. Compared to you coming to her house with a thank-you gift, she may be more reluctant to be disturbed by others.

Prepare some sweet potatoes and give them to her if you meet her on the road. If she doesn't want to accept them, don't force her to accept them. As long as the thought is there, it's enough.

If she needs help someday, it won't be too late for you to repay her."

Yang Weimin also felt that Huo Yishen and Jiang Ning seemed to be quite unsociable. No, to be more precise, they wanted to keep a certain distance from them.

In the end of the natural disaster, if there is no old friendship, who dares to get too close to whom, and what they do is not wrong.

…

Having not had a good rest for several days, Director Ling didn't arrive at the office until almost noon.

The assistant came in to report on his work, and when he left, he remembered something, "Director Ling, two strange men came today. They brought half a squid and said it might be infected with an ancient virus and almost killed someone.

This matter is not the responsibility of the police station, but since receiving two mysterious letters in a row, Director Ling has become concerned about this matter and has instructed that if you encounter anything related to the "prophecy" in the future, you must tell him immediately.

The ancient virus was a prophecy, but I didn’t expect it to actually happen.

"Where are the people?"

"They came early in the morning and have already left."

"Have you told them which department to contact?"

"I have told you." The assistant replied, "Since we received the first report and successfully took down the Dragon Slayer Society, the relevant departments have taken our second letter very seriously. In fact, the scientific research department discovered the anomaly a few days ago and has been taking samples for research, but the final results have not yet come out."

As he spoke, he muttered to himself, "These two messengers are really mysterious. Not only did they deliver the report letter in advance, but they also delivered the prophecy letter in the same way. But why did one of them only predict an earthquake and then nothing else?"

The other lasted ten years.

It’s strange, if it is really possible to predict, why didn’t they mention hail and boiling rain?

There are too many mysteries that are hard to figure out.

And why do they all like to go to the police station? They are too busy with their own affairs.

"What are you complaining about?" Director Ling glanced at him. "Didn't the propaganda say that if there is a problem, go to the police. If not us, who else can the people go to?"

The assistant quickly said, "Yes, yes, Director Ling, you are right."

Just as he was about to leave, his boss called him back and asked, "How is the recruitment of security patrol officers going?"

"Not bad. Quite a few people have signed up recently." Knowing that a private mafia base had been seized, more tough guys have signed up recently.

"We are seriously short of people. We are selecting a group of skilled personnel from the security patrol team and promoting them to police officers as an exception."

…

At the appointed time, Jiang Ning went to the trading street to find the sharp-nosed monkey.

In the trading street, seawater is still selling like hot cakes, and there are also many people selling dried seafood.

Jiang Ning looked at several stores and found that most of the dried seafood were of normal size, but there were also some that were out of the ordinary.

There are people who buy, but those who come to the trading street are almost all survivors from the bottom, so there are relatively few buyers.

As for whether eating it will kill you, no one can really tell.

Jiang Ning felt heavy in his heart, but he wasn't stupid enough to step forward to stop it, unless he wanted to risk his life.

Even if you really don't want to die, no one will believe it.

Standing in a crowd, even with a mask on, the sharp-nosed monkey could successfully find her, "Sister."

Jiang Ning was a little curious, "You don't sell seawater and dry goods anymore?"

The sharp-nosed monkey looked around, then pulled her aside and said, "Sis, ever since the Tang Group's marine industry is gone, the boss has stopped doing this business."

In fact, it's not that they don't want to do it, but it's not easy to rebuild the lines and bridges. The boss went to Xiangshan and Lingding. There is no shortage of seafood in these two places, but the journey is a bit far, and it takes time to observe the other party's character to avoid being cheated.

"We haven't even started cooperating yet, and something went wrong."

"What happened?"

"Seafood is divided into different grades. Overfishing in Lingding led to the depletion of seafood. But after the tsunami, seafood suddenly became abundant. The big and plump ones were naturally supplied to the upper class first. As a result, something went wrong. Several people died in the rich area..."

The boss had a keen sense of smell and felt that there was something wrong with the seafood, so he cut off his own source of income.

"Sister, it's true that we do reselling, but we never make money by doing something dishonest. The boss doesn't do it himself, and he doesn't let us do it privately."

The monkey reminded Jiang Ning, "There are problems everywhere now. You can't eat seafood. There's hail and boiling water. We don't know when the earthquake will come. You have to pay attention. I still want to continue trading with you."

Alas, life is so hard.

He didn't want to be unable to find his sister one day, or his sister unable to find him.

"Okay, just because of what you said, I will come to you first if I have business in the future."

Jiang Ning got back to the point, "Have you found the seeds I want?"

"If it's what you want, I'll go through fire and water to find it for you."

The monkey took out two bags of seeds from his bag. "It's a lot of trouble, but they are all seeds from two years ago. Five kilograms of rice seeds and five kilograms of glutinous rice seeds. Can you take them back and see if they can germinate?"

If rice cultivation didn't require a lot of water, the seeds wouldn't have survived.

He was a little expectant. What could his sister give him in exchange?

Jiang Ning weighed it and found that the weight was acceptable and the seeds were not infested by insects.

She took out ten kilograms of things from her bag and said, "I won't let you suffer any loss."

The sharp-nosed monkey was delighted when he saw it...
