"We really have nothing to eat at home. Can you help us out? I'll pay for it."
This young man, Gu Ke, lived above Zheng Haomei and made a living by delivering takeout. He was a lavish spender and never cooked. His house was filled with piles of clothes and shoes, but no food.
Last time I didn't go down to shovel snow, so I ended up relying on the big New Year gift package the company gave me before the New Year to hold on for so many days.
I have run out of food and ammunition today, so I asked for help in the group.
"Double! No, five times is fine! Please, everyone!" Gu Ke begged in the group.
There are no new messages in the group.
Although every household still had some food stored, no one was willing to take it out at this time.
The 9th floor is flooded with snow, and we don’t know when we’ll get rescued. Every bite of food we eat means we have less.
Gu Ke was desperate. The water pipe had burst, and now he couldn't even drink some cold water to satisfy his hunger. He picked up the drink bottle on the table, licked the rim, and then collapsed to the ground.
Normally, his refrigerator would contain only a few fruit drinks, but this week, he only dared to drink a few sips of drinks every day to satisfy his hunger.
He must be starving to death.
He regretted it terribly. He regretted constantly claiming he was a new generation person who didn't need to celebrate traditional festivals. He also regretted not going home for the New Year. If he had gone back, things wouldn't have ended like this.
Lin Lang saw Gu Ke's plea for help. He thought that the rebellious and selfish person had brought this upon himself and did not deserve any sympathy.
"If you ask me, shouldn't the community secretary donate some food? After all, he's a member of the group."
"Right, right, right, Zhang Wei, hurry up and send some food to them. If someone starves to death, you will be held responsible."
When Lin Lang saw someone say this in the group, he clicked on the avatar with disdain.
Haha, it turned out to be that old immortal Wang Chunmei.
"Sister Wang is right. Let me put it this way, Gu Ke. I still have a few bags of instant noodles here. I'll give you two bags. Come up and get them."
After Zhang Wei finished speaking, he also tagged Gu Ke.
"However, judging by the situation, we won't be rescued for a while. I think everyone should take out the food and let me and the housekeeper take care of it. We'll distribute it to everyone when the time comes. That way, we won't have a problem like what happened to Gu Ke."
Zhang Wei struck while the iron was hot and described his plan in great detail.
"Yes, please rest assured, we will treat everyone fairly and make sure no one starves to death due to lack of food." Cui Ming again instigated in the group.
Seeing this, Lin Lang sneered.
These three people, along with that jerk Jin Zhe, had just arrived at Zhang Wei's house and left half an hour later. Lin Lang had recorded every word they said inside.
Those in the group who had less supplies immediately chimed in, expressing their support. The majority remained silent, neither opposing nor supporting.
"Since everyone agrees, it's decided. Each household will hand in the amount based on the number of people, and we'll keep a record of it."
"Support Secretary Zhang, we will actively cooperate." Jin Zhe and Liu Lingling cheered in the group.
"Why should we hand it over to you for safekeeping? Every household has limited supplies now. If we hand it over to you, what will we eat?" Lei Cheng, the owner of a family of twenty, objected.
"Yes, we have such a big family, what will we eat if we pay it?"
Seeing that Zhang Wei had directly decided to collect grain, the owners who had more supplies at home also began to oppose it.
Zheng Haomei thought that what Jinzhe did was great, and those neighbors who opposed it were too selfish, so she blamed those who opposed it in the group;
"How come you people don't have any love at all? You are so selfish."
"You can help others by just taking some of the food now"
"Yes, yes, a distant relative is not as good as a close neighbor. It's only natural to help each other."
For a while, the two groups were arguing fiercely in the group.
"Okay, everyone, stop arguing. There are currently 128 households in our building. Excluding the 12 households that don't live here, there are still 116 households.
"Each household will be given 1 kilogram of grain or equivalent supplies, instead of the number of people."
"If you don't pay, and people die of starvation, you will be held legally responsible."
After saying that, Zhang Wei sent the photo of Gu Ke slumped on the ground to the group.
After hearing what Zhang Wei said, and knowing that Gu Ke was indeed going to starve to death, the owners fell silent.
After all, only a week had passed, and no one had ever really let someone starve to death in front of them.
It would be fine if you haven't seen it, but even if you have seen it, few people can do it. After all, most people are not born cold-blooded animals.
Lin Lang looked at the actions of Zhang Wei and others coldly.
In her previous life, she foolishly trusted Zhang Wei, a team member, and handed over part of the food.
The consequence was that when they ran out of food, not only could they not get a single grain, but they were also sold by those adulterers in exchange for their own food.
In this life, Jin Zhe was actually mixed up with them.
Then there will be some fun to watch.
Lin Lang watched as Zhang Wei, Wang Chunmei and the other two took 5 packets of instant noodles to Gu Ke, but then said they had to hand over a portion of them and took away 2 more packets, leaving only 3 packets of instant noodles for Gu Ke.
This is a beautiful move! He is indeed a man of action.
As soon as Gu Ke got the instant noodles, he ate a packet of them.
Lin Lang watched them collecting grain from every household through the surveillance camera.
They gathered grain from the bottom up in groups of four or five. If they encountered a small group of people who were easy to talk to, they would ask for more; if they encountered a large group of people who were aggressive, they would ask for less.
Especially the family of twenty or so people who just symbolically gave a bag of bread and then closed the door.
They didn't even fart.
He is very good at bullying the weak and fearing the strong!
