"Where are Tang You and Dafu?"
Hua Mi led Yu Mengmeng outside the RV and asked Ye Rong, who was busy inside, about her situation.
Ye Rong looked up and glanced at Yu Mengmeng.
"They're hauling oranges to the basement garage."
Hua Mi had previously called them and asked them to haul the oranges to the roadblock outside the city gate to sell them.
Then, Ye Rong looked at Yu Mengmeng's stomach and asked Hua Mi,
Who is this?
"I just met her in the emergency room. She was looking for work, so I brought her back to the hospital."
Hua Mi waved her hand and turned to Yu Mengmeng.
"Look at what you can do with this stuff."
Yu Mengmeng rolled up her sleeves, ran to the bus next door, and quickly began to take care of the three lifeguards.
I must say, she seemed quite professional; after all, she's a top-notch caregiver at the nursing home.
As soon as Hua Mi settled Yu Mengmeng in, she turned around and hadn't even caught her breath.
I then received a text message from Gong Yi.
[Gong Yi: What were you doing in the emergency room? Are you sick?]
[Hua Mi: No, I'm just going to see a friend. Don't stare at me. Are there no more SOS signals outside the city?]
Emergency rescue efforts in Xiangcheng have been decreasing recently because everything that could be destroyed by the earthquake has already collapsed.
If the structure wasn't destroyed by the earthquake, then it proves that the project's quality is truly up to standard.
From then on, no matter how much the project is shaken, it will not collapse.
Therefore, the rescue team focused its main efforts and time on searching for survivors outside the city.
[Gong Yi: Of course there are! A large number of survivors are walking towards Xiangcheng, and there are bound to be some unexpected situations along the way. But I've been promoted, so there are some things I don't need to do personally. How about I treat you to some oranges?]
The fact that he was promoted to the Xiangcheng Garrison Command had actually been communicated to everyone long ago.
A few days ago, he was still outside the city doing SOS because there was still some final handover work to be done. Now that he has time, he has been sending more messages to Hua Mi.
But please ask Hua to eat oranges?
Hua Mi really wanted to beat him to death.
[Hua Mi: Thank you, but no need. Let me treat you. I'll have Tang Feng bring you 666 catties of oranges later to congratulate you on your promotion. 666!]
[Gong Yi:]
At the city gate, Gong Yi was standing in the rain supervising the repair of the iron gate at the garrison. He took a moment to look down at his phone and smile.
Just then, Tang You came out dragging a truckload of oranges.
Tang You's face was covered with a layer of plastic, which was the reaction after the hemostatic gel solidified.
He leaned against the driver's side window and raised his hand to Gong Yi.
"Boss! Sister Hua told us to bring the oranges to the city gate to sell."
Tang You was initially worried that Sister Hua had brought too many oranges and might lose money, but he was relieved after they arrived at the city gate.
There are no stalls here, so there is absolutely no competitive pressure.
Moreover, the garrison will give them the green light; there's a big difference between setting up a stall inside the city and setting up a stall outside the city.
Sure enough, Gong Yi waved his hand, and the garrison opened the newly installed iron gate, letting Tang You and Dafu out.
After a while, once Tang You had parked the truck full of oranges, he instructed Da Fu to start putting up banners and selling oranges.
He jumped out of the driver's seat, walked over to Gong Yi, and took out two oranges.
"Boss, want some oranges?"
Gong Yi glared fiercely at Tang You, then pointed to a prefabricated house next to the iron gate. Tang You looked over.
A bright orange tangerine rolled out from under the door.
They rolled directly into the mud.
A QR code was posted at the entrance of the prefabricated house; it was the rescue team's public account.
A note was posted next to it.
[Clearance sale of tangerines for garrison troops, guaranteed sweet, 9.9 yuan each]
Tang You was completely stunned; he had been too naive.
The reason there was no competitive pressure outside the gate was that the garrison had set up its own stalls and not allowed anyone to set up stalls outside the city to steal the garrison's business.
The next moment, Gong Yi patted Tang You's shoulder heavily.
“Right, you know we brothers have been having a tough time lately. Since Sister Hua asked you to come out and sell oranges, I’ll give you all the oranges that are supposed to be our welfare crop. You can exchange them for some money so we can make a living.”
Look at how desperate the garrison has become.
The heartless woman was really stuffing oranges into the garrison's supply depot every day; 100 oranges per person was simply not enough to finish them all.
So these past two days, the garrison at the city gate has been secretly buying oranges.
This has seriously affected the discipline and demeanor of the garrison.
After Gong Yi discovered this, he instructed them to pile the oranges in the prefabricated houses so that any survivors entering the city could scan a code to get an orange.
The price is comparable to that of oranges at Huami's RV supermarket, which costs 9.9 yuan each. In the current climate, that's considered affordable.
Tang You blinked in disbelief, the hand on his shoulder feeling like an unbearable weight.
However, facing his boss's trusting gaze, Tang You nodded and said, "Okay!"
Fortunately, oranges are not difficult to sell.
There were also quite a few people who traveled long distances to Xiangcheng, especially after the Xiang B Expressway was opened. The survivors of B City all brought their families and drove to Xiangcheng.
Someone stopped their car, pointed at the banner that Dafu had unfurled, and shouted in disbelief:
"Look quickly, it's true that in Xiangcheng, you can buy oranges with money, just like the internet says."
There are also many posts about prices in Xiangcheng online. Although there was a previous post saying that medical supplies sold at the Xiangcheng Garrison Supply Office cost as much as a thousand yuan.
Not long after the post was published, public opinion shifted.
Those who had criticized the Xiangcheng garrison have now begun to praise it.
