There are only 45 staff members in the entire Dongyang Maternal and Child Health Hospital.
Everyone was surprised and delighted when they received emails about salary increases and benefits.
Director Qiu's wife Tao Xue was walking in the corridor with her belly bulging. In the past, she was reluctant to walk because it was so hot everywhere at that time. She would sweat all over if she moved a little, and it was inconvenient to take a shower.
It’s different now. The corridor is very cool. It’s okay to walk a few steps and sweat. There are toilets and bathrooms on the same floor, and water and other things are free.
Director Qiu happened to come to see his wife after work. Seeing her rosy complexion and bright spirit, he couldn't help but support her and sighed:
"Seeing you like this, I think it was worth handing over those three crystal cores."
After saying that, he enviously said, "It makes me want to live here with you every day. Isn't it more comfortable than home?"
Although the family had the luxury of installing an air conditioner, the cost of water and electricity remained high after the apocalypse, and even a family like Director Qiu's could not afford to keep the air conditioner on all the time.
Tao Xue held her belly and hit him angrily: "It's not just that there are only women here, and there's no extra bed for you to sleep on."
Director Qiu thought so too. The beds in this maternity and child hospital are very valuable.
"It's a pity that my younger sister married into Wutai."
Tao Xue heard this and said worriedly, "Is there really no way to get her to come? Last time I called her, she said that the martial arts arena isn't very safe right now."
Director Qiu shook his head: "I'm afraid it's not possible for the time being, but she still has some time to wait for her pregnancy and delivery. Now it depends on Xiao Ding's ability. He is close to Tao Yang, so maybe there is a chance."
Tao Xue had no choice but to agree.
At this time, the young nurses passing by were all in high spirits and walked in groups to Director Guo's office upstairs.
Tao Xue rarely saw them so happy, so she couldn't help but be curious and pulled a familiar nurse to ask what good news was.
The little nurse said with great joy:
"I heard that Boss Su from Taoyang gave us a raise and said he'd arrange for us to live in Taoyang soon!"
Tao Xue was shocked: "Did you all arrange it?"
Director Qiu also stared.
The young nurse nodded vigorously: "Yes, our director said that as long as the employees are recorded, they will be arranged, but it will take some time."
After she finished speaking, the young nurse was pulled by her companion: "Hurry up, Director Guo is urging us to go."
The young nurse quickly said goodbye to the couple: "Sorry, our director called us to a meeting. I have to leave now."
After the young nurse left, Tao Xue and Director Qiu stared at each other.
Finally, Director Qiu sighed and broke the silence:
"My job is so boring."
Tao Xue snorted at him.
To be honest, they also wanted to live in Taoyang, but Director Qiu was a core political manager in Dongyang, so they had to avoid suspicion and could not go.
Tao Xue couldn't help but feel aggrieved:
"You're the only one who's afraid of this and that. Didn't Pei Dong from the City Defense Army and Shi Zijin from the Pioneer Army live there openly?"
Director Qiu protested: "My dear, they are from the military and have made such great contributions. Who dares to gossip about them behind their backs? Besides, whether it is Shi Zijin or Pei Dong, they don't live in Taoyang all the time. Most of the time they are either away or guarding the city."
Tao Xue ignored him and went on feeling sad.
She is the wife of the Dongyang director, but her life is not as good as that of the young nurses in the maternity and child hospital. It makes her feel wronged just thinking about it.
Director Qiu was unable to appease his wife and felt extremely anxious.
Su Tao never thought that her actions would cause family conflicts in the director's family.
She was happy that the customers who came to purchase supplies this time were very generous. Three of them directly paid eight crystal cores to become members, and two others paid three crystal cores for a monthly subscription.
They all came together and paid together, so Su Tao suddenly had a total of thirty crystal cores in his hands.
Several customers also returned with full bags, not only buying a lot of food and water, but also fuel. When they left, they made such a grand noise that even Gu Mingchi, who was far away in the East District, heard the news.
He logged onto Taoyang's website and browsed the supplies purchasing page for a long time. He resisted the urge to place an order and closed the search function.
"How's the land lease going?"
Looking back, she said, "Boss Su said she won't be leasing out large amounts of land recently. As for the reason, I asked her, but she didn't seem willing to explain it to me."
Gu Mingchi tapped the table twice and thought for a long time: "Forget it, it's too late."
There was a storm in his eyes. "If you can't rent it, then rob it. Go and find out if there's any suitable land in the south. Once you've found it, start the battle. I'll personally join the fight. We can't let our brothers wander around anymore."
The group of young brothers who were brought from the old station had no place to stay and had to eat, drink, defecate and urinate in the car. Their life was really hard.
Looking back, his heart aches. He was one of the brothers who were brought out from the old station.
He was lucky enough to catch the boss's eye, which allowed him to settle down in the East District.
He gritted his teeth and called Su Tao again.
Su Tao was also helpless when she received the call: "Sorry, there is really no land available for leasing recently."
Although she got another thirty crystal cores, she planned to take over the orphanage and nursery.
I heard that there might be another siege on the city in the next few days. If we are unlucky and two more districts fall, the orphanage and nursery will be completely exposed to the zombies.
She had to move faster.
Hui Su was very disappointed and pursed his lips and said, "What does Boss Su need in order to lease the land to us?"
Su Tao didn't think much about the "you" he mentioned. After thinking for a while, she sighed and said:
"How about this, if your friend really wants to rent 3,000 square meters, you can give me 30 crystal cores first. I can reduce the subsequent rent accordingly and mainly only charge federal coins."
When Hui Su heard about the thirty crystal cores, his heart trembled.
So many.
But he still agreed and turned to pass the message to his boss.
Gu Mingchi pondered for a whole afternoon, and finally called Huisu over and asked his assistant to bring him a box:
"Here are 12 of them. Find a time to talk to Su Tao as soon as possible to see how much land you can rent and send the brothers there to settle down first."
Hui Su took it with red eyes.
These crystal cores were obtained by our brothers with their blood and sweat.
And it should be all the stock the boss has at present.
He nodded heavily in agreement.
