Lei Yongkang sighed, "Don't even mention it! The factory has been anything but safe at night since you went to the provincial capital! Thieves have been sneaking in every night!"
Chen Xiaohong, who was standing to the side, widened her eyes instantly. "Huh? Stealing things? Stealing raw materials or equipment?"
Lei Yongkang shook his head, "No, it's not that! It's stealing food! Stealing the grain and dried vegetables stored in our factory canteen's warehouse!"
The security department has arrested several groups of people, all of them refugees from nearby counties. They were starving, their eyes practically glowing green, skin and bones! Once caught, they didn't run away or make a fuss; they just said they'd rather be beaten to death than be caught! This…this is truly…”
Guan Wenru frowned deeply, "The situation has become so serious..."
Lei Yongkang was also worried. "Yes! It's impossible to guard against them! And they seem to know that our factory has grain reserves. Two groups of people came last night! The security department is almost short-staffed!"
After a moment's thought, Guan Wenru spoke up decisively, "Starting tonight, double the number of security personnel on duty, work in three shifts, and expand the patrol area to the perimeter of the factory. Tell all on-duty personnel that this will be considered overtime, and the factory will pay overtime wages."
Lei Yongkang nodded, "Okay! I'll arrange it right away!"
Guan Wenru's tone suddenly became stern, "Once we catch someone, we'll handle it according to the rules. If they need to be sent to the police station, then they should be sent to the police station."
However, one thing everyone must remember is absolutely forbidden: no one is allowed to give them any food or drink in private! Not even a single piece of bread! No matter how pitiful they seem, it's unacceptable!
Lei Yongkang was taken aback at first, then suddenly realized what he meant, and his expression changed. "Factory Manager, are you worried about..."
Guan Wenru's eyes were sharp. "That's right! Once we soften our hearts and give them some, the news will spread, and those desperate disaster victims will think that we really have a continuous supply of food, and even more people will flock here!"
"At that point, it won't just be a few petty thieves sneaking in; it could be a whole gang looting! If the situation gets out of control, not only will the factory be lost, but there could be serious chaos! This door must not be opened!"
She will definitely find a way to use the things in the space for disaster relief, but she cannot let them get even a single bit of food in this way!
Lei Yongkang also knew the seriousness of the matter. He nodded heavily, his expression solemn. "I understand! Factory director, you are right! This is not heartlessness, but to save the factory and for the greater good!"
I'll go to the meeting right away and convey your message clearly and completely! Anyone who dares to violate this rule will be punished first!
"Yes, go ahead. Be firm in your attitude, but be tactful in your words. They're all from the same village, so let them understand the factory's difficulties."
"Hey! I know what to say!"
Lei Yongkang left in a hurry, and Guan Wenru frowned even more as she looked at the desolate scene outside the factory area.
How exactly can she legally take the things out of her space?
And how should disaster relief be carried out?
