Chapter 604: Mist. Occupy the Shelter 3
Chu An's voice echoed around, and everyone looked at her with a little surprise. Chu An did not feel uncomfortable at all, but instead looked at Li Qing with burning eyes.
Li Qing grew up in a village in the city, living in a mixed environment, but he was not affected. He dropped out of school not because he was stupid, but to save his mother from so much work; he became a scoundrel not because he had no ability to do nothing, but because he was forced by current events and life; he never complained about his background, complained about the injustice of fate, and always kept a pure heart.
Boss Li said that he was soft-hearted and would never achieve great things. She did not think that being soft-hearted was not the same as being weak or demented. As a person, it is normal to be able to understand the feelings and situations of others. People criticize soft-heartedness because of excessive compassion, which causes people to do things beyond their ability, thus harming the interests of themselves and those around them.
But Li Qing is not such a person. His soft-heartedness allows him to maintain his kind nature and stick to his original intention even in this doomsday.
Li Qing, Gu Ye, Zhuona, Chen Xun, Wang Ce, Yin Tianlin, Huo Sisi, Tang Xiao, Li Rong...
Chu An was glad that she knew such a group of normal people with flesh and blood, which allowed her to gradually find herself and return to normal life.
The first person to put down the supplies was the girl who cried and asked Li Qing if he would give up on them, followed by the old couple. In fact, they didn't steal anything, they just picked up a cloth bag, and no one knew what was inside.
Everyone put down the things in their hands one after another, even the boy's mother who wanted to leave was no longer anxious and put down the half bottle of mineral water in her arms.
They didn't want to live without a single vegetable leaf to eat for three days. They had no hope at all and could only grasp the little light from Li Qing.
Chu An took a deep breath and said firmly again, "I can't guarantee what the future will be like, but within two years, Li Qing will not only let you eat one meal a day, but also let you have enough food."
In her previous life, she lived for four years and six months. In the end, all she saw around her were evil people. That was true despair.
Li Qing slowly straightened his spine and stood up. When he raised the megaphone again, his eyes were slightly red, making his beautiful phoenix eyes look even more passionate and sincere.
“Although I, Li Qing, am a scoundrel, I have never done anything that is against the will of heaven or earth in my life. Even during the last two years of the apocalypse, I have never robbed any ordinary citizen of a grain of rice.
I fought with others, seized territory, engaged in reselling, and fought against people and against the sky, all just to keep myself and my brothers alive.
If you choose to follow me, each of you will be my brother from now on, and I will share the joys and sorrows with you. "
Silence for three seconds...
"I stayed."
"I'll stay too."
“Our whole family is staying.”
The crowd's voices were no longer timid, and they were even a little happy. They had not heard such sincere words for a long time, and it was as if they saw a new dawn.
At this point, all the people who should stay are standing here, but there are not many, about sixty or seventy, less than one tenth of the total number of people.
Next, Li Qing did not plan to go back to the elementary school. Since he had already started, there was no turning back. He first went to the head of the rich area to learn about the situation of the entire shelter.
The rich leader is called Guo Jing, who has the same name as the protagonist of a martial arts movie.
The entire shelter is actually divided into three areas. In addition to the low mountains and refugee areas, the high mountain is also within the planning scope. However, due to insufficient manpower and material resources, the development and construction was stopped halfway.
He pointed to an area halfway up the mountain covered by lush trees and said, "We leveled out ten thousand square meters of open space there and built a lot of houses halfway up the mountain, but the road leading down the mountain hasn't been built, so ordinary people can't go up. The people who built the houses left or died, and the place has become a waste."
Li Qing was delighted. If he could live in the mountains, he would be safer. But he was not in a hurry to study the mountains. The most important thing now was to protect the shelter. If the refugees who left came back to cause trouble, it would be troublesome.
He sent people to guard outside the gate, and then counted the number of people. A total of sixty-three people were left, mostly elderly people and women.
Chu An was not idle either. He asked Lao Chu and Bo Zai to cook some sweet potatoes to fill everyone's stomach. The food was apparently taken from Li Qing's car, but actually it was taken from the space.
Those who stayed behind were also taking a gamble. They didn’t know what fate awaited them, but when they chewed the hot sweet potatoes, they felt that they had made the right choice, and some even cried.
After a whole morning of hard work, Li Qing and his companions were also hungry, so they ate together. After they had filled their stomachs, they began to arrange tasks. As the saying goes, attacking a city is easier than defending it.
He left three people to clean up the office building, and divided the rest into ten groups, led by Gu Ye, Jiang Tuo and others, to search the shelter inside and out to see if there was anyone hiding secretly. If they could find any supplies, they would take them to the warehouse. Since he had promised to divide the contents of the warehouse equally, he could not go back on his word.
After dinner, Chu An and Lao Chu wandered around and saw Guo Jing directing people to organize the warehouse. She squinted her right eye and saw that there was fear, confusion and conscience on his chest, each accounting for one third. He was a good person and could be used.
She walked up to Guo Jing and said she wanted to talk to him. Guo Jing did not refuse. He gave a few instructions to his companions and left with Chu An.
He had long felt that this girl was unusual. Just now, when Li Qing was assigning tasks, he would ask her a question from time to time.
"Let's go to the conference room in the office building." Guo Jing suggested, "I just arranged for someone to clean up, so this is a good opportunity to see how it's done. No matter what, we have to have a place to work."
The three of them quickly walked to the office building. Many people were moving out damaged office supplies. It was really terrifying to see hundreds of people squeezed in just now.
"What did you do before?" Chu An asked.
"I used to work in a bank as an assistant to the president." Guo Jing answered truthfully.
Chu An couldn't help but look at him differently, not because of his position, but because his performance just now perfectly interpreted the position of assistant.
Li Qing said that they would divide the materials equally, so he went to tidy up the warehouse in advance. Li Qing had to have a place to rest and work when he settled here, so he sent someone to clean the office building. These were not what Li Qing asked him to do. And his doing these also indirectly told Li Qing that he would not compete for the position of manager and was willing to be a helper.
He is neither humble nor arrogant, does not fight or compete, knows how to adapt to the times and has courage. As long as he has no bad intentions, he will definitely have a place in the shelter in the future.
