Chapter 1038: Arguing
Gu Yin was adjusting the equipment when her phone rang. She picked it up and saw it was Zhang Huanan. She took off her gloves and answered the call.
"What's wrong, Chief Zhang?"
Are you free right now?
Gu Yin nodded, and asked Wen Xin to turn on the electricity to check for any problems. After speaking, she walked towards the door.
Yes, why?
"Here's the thing, a large number of people are heading to your area right now, and all the hotels... are worried that some people might not listen to advice and cause panic. Could you please post a statement online?"
"Okay, I'll send it now."
After hanging up the phone, Gu Yin opened the Big Eyes app, and her name was still among the top ten trending topics, along with the Five Elements School and the topic of having superpowers.
Gu Yin didn't read it; she logged into her own account and posted a statement.
"The Five Elements Academy has branches in major cities across the country. The equipment and teachers were all sent out at the same time. They will open in six months at the latest. Don't all come to Jiang City. There are limited spots here. If you live far away, don't waste your time and money. If you live nearby, you can decide for yourself. Also, hotels, guesthouses, and other accommodations in Jiang City and surrounding cities are all fully booked. If you are on your way, I suggest you go home. We have a new policy. You can check the policy issued by the South China Military Region. For those who violate the policy, are arrested, or have poor credit, we will conduct a thorough review. If you fail the review, you will be permanently blacklisted by the Five Elements Academy and will never have the opportunity to take the ability test again! I hope you cherish your credit."
After posting, Gu Yin went offline immediately. She ignored the public's reaction, saying that she had said everything she needed to say, and that she would not be lenient if the offense was repeated.
With the equipment working properly, Gu Yin began preparing the medicine.
The capital city and several major medicinal herb bases previously supplied the military, and cannot supply Jiang City in the short term. Fortunately, there is also a medicinal herb base in the neighboring city, and preparations were made eight years ago.
The climate is different, the growing environment of the medicinal herbs is different, and their medicinal properties are also different, so Gu Yin has to re-prepare the medicine here.
"It's better to start over than to re-run the debugging. I'll just do it directly."
Gu Yin arranged for some medicinal herbs to be sent over from Dabai Mountain, and immediately began to remake the medicine.
While she was busy in the lab these past few days, the school had become packed with people.
It's no exaggeration, you could step on someone just by turning around!
Gu Yin came out of the lab on the third day, but when she saw so many people, she immediately turned around and went back into the lab to find some peace and quiet.
"The spots are full, but the crowd isn't dispersing. Everyone's been stuck at the school gate, making it difficult to get in and out! Don't hide in the lab, come out and let's discuss this!"
Zhang Huanan has been in Jiang City for five days, but he hasn't even seen a trace of Gu Yin. He has no choice but to make arrangements with the local staff first.
I thought that once the registration was over, everyone would leave, but to my surprise, not only did these people not leave, but they also surrounded the school gate every day, wanting to see the superpowers.
They can't be driven away, and they have a place to stay. If you try to persuade them, they just say they're here as tourists. There's simply no way to get rid of them.
Zhang Huanan had no choice but to turn to Gu Yin.
Gu Yin raised her eyebrows upon hearing this: "That's easy. Branch schools across the country have opened advance registration channels. The applicant must bring their ID to the registration site. Let's see if they can get away with it."
Zhang Huanan: "...I'd like to, but do I have that authority? Isn't that authority in your hands?"
Even the former chief didn't have this authority!
Gu Yin: "...Okay, I'll go talk to them."
Gu Yin was also helpless. Did she really have to do this herself?
A phone call was made to the old leader, asking him to help notify the Ministry of Education to issue a public announcement.
Just as she expected, after the announcement, 90% of those who were still on their way turned back, and 70% of the people in Jiang City also left.
The once noisy and crowded city instantly returned to calm.
"There aren't many people in other places, but this ancient town is still bustling with visitors, and the school gate is still crowded," Wen Xin explained when she saw Gu Yin staring at the gate without moving.
Gu Yin nodded: "Let the people from the cultural and tourism department come here to advertise, and also promote Lijia Village."
"Actually, there's no need for publicity. I received a call from Gu Ran today. A lot of outsiders went to the village. Since there's no plan for the village yet, they just went to take a look. No one stayed overnight. However, some people from the city bought poultry and vegetables from many households in the village. The winter bamboo shoots from behind Daqingshan Mountain are also very popular. The villagers have harvested a lot."
Chi Xing, who was standing to the side, also spoke up.
"Let the people in the culture and tourism sector handle that. Have the new students had their medical checkups?"
Wei Yue stepped forward and said, "We've checked everything and categorized and filtered the data according to the template you provided earlier. It should all be available tomorrow."
"After the review of these 3,000 people, we don't know how many will stay. By the way, we should also give medical examinations and reviews to those who are prepared, so that they can directly replace those who leave."
The Five Elements Academy has regular students and prospective students. If a regular student has a problem and cannot be admitted, they will be placed in the prospective student group.
If the reserve students are not all enrolled, they will be able to attend the local branch school without having to register, based on their place of household registration.
"Don't worry, everything has been arranged!"
Gu Yin nodded upon hearing this: "That's good, thank you for your help."
After a week, Gu Yin finished making the medicine, and all the students' information and tests were completed.
Then began a month-long physical training program, with instructors still being military personnel.
Taking advantage of this time, Gu Yin and the municipal government, with the support of several pharmaceutical factories, prepared all the necessary medicines and transported them to the Five Elements Academy.
"The trainees are ready and can begin the injections."
Looking at the crowd standing on the playground, Gu Yin nodded: "Then let's begin."
After a month of military training, it was finally time to unleash their special abilities, and everyone on the parade ground was extremely excited.
Gu Yin looked at these people and whispered, "Our people are all quite hot-blooded. Keep a close eye on them in case they start fighting. Tell the soldiers around us to be careful and pull them apart immediately if they accidentally hurt someone while activating their powers."
Wei Yue nodded: "I know, it's all arranged. The soldiers standing around are all capable of superpowers, so there's no need to worry."
Gu Yin's worries were not unfounded.
"Damn it! You're a fucking idiot! Didn't the instructor say to report if you're not feeling well and move to the observation area? You electrocuted me so badly I almost lost half my body and you still didn't react! You're smarter than an idiot! You're so stupid!"
"Who are you calling stupid?! Go ahead and curse me again!! You dare to curse me one more time!!"
"So what if I scold you! You're just stupid! Do you think I'm afraid of you?! Come on! Shock me!!"
