Lie down and win 126
Han Yu and Ji Qingqing arrived one after the other shortly after.
Han Yu remained as unrestrained as ever, showing no courtesy to anyone else upon entering the house. However, he still maintained basic manners, finding a seat but not touching his chopsticks.
Ji Qingqing arrived later. Compared to her anxiety when she first got home, she was in a much better mood now, so it seemed that nothing had happened in Building 5.
However, she seemed to have something on her mind. She looked at Mu Qingyu several times as if she wanted to say something but ultimately said nothing.
Once everyone had arrived, Mu Qingyu closed the door and invited them to sit down. Her house had a solar generator and batteries, so there was no problem with powering the electricity and lighting.
"Today's gathering is to celebrate our safe return from outside. And we gained quite a lot this time. We obtained a lot of supplies from Qingshan Hospital, including food, medicine, and I even took some clean blankets. There's also medical equipment," Mu Qingyu began, opening the conversation.
"Today, besides celebrating, we mainly want to discuss how to distribute the supplies. Please feel free to share any suggestions you may have." The items are quite varied, making distribution difficult. Mu Qingyu's idea is to try to cater to everyone's needs as much as possible.
She wasn't willing to give a penny to the enemy, but she was quite generous to her own people. At least among all the people who went out this time, no one caused any trouble, no one betrayed them, and no one even objected to leaving all the supplies with her.
Mu Qingrong was the first to raise his hand: "I have no objection, what's mine is mine, my sister's." His eyes darted around a couple of times: "Sis, on such a nice day, can we have a bottle of Coke?"
Mu Qingyu was both amused and exasperated. This time, instead of scolding him, she took out a 2.5-liter bottle of Coca-Cola and a 2.5-liter bottle of Sprite from her spatial storage and placed them on the table.
Mu Qingrong immediately beamed with joy and even winked at Mo Huaiyu.
Who doesn't love soda? Although Mo Huaiyu never said it, a rare, bright smile appeared on his face when he saw the large tub of cola.
"What I mean is, I won't divide up these hospital supplies. Consider it as my rent for staying here and my and Xiao Ai's food expenses. Xiao Yu and Xiao Rong can eat whatever they want. If there's not enough water and electricity, we can calculate it separately," Mo Huaiyu said after thinking for a moment.
Han Yu immediately spotted the key point: "You want to move into Old Master Mu's house? No way! I want to live there too! I don't need any supplies, I'll take them as rent!"
What does he need supplies for! Look at this table full of food! Fresh greens, eggplant, corn, potatoes, and sweet potatoes, and even spare ribs and braised pork!
Ugh, who wants those dry, packaged foods anymore?! He! Doesn't! Want!
"Get lost!" Mu Qingyu rolled her eyes at Han Yu: "Don't even think about it! Besides, I have a name. What do you mean by 'Boss Mu'? I'm not Gu Jianye."
Han Yu didn't care about the form of address! He could call her whatever he wanted! All he cared about now was that Mu Qingyu wouldn't let him rent a house!
Han Yu pouted, looking very aggrieved.
Mu Qingyu scoffed, "Get lost, get lost, what are you pretending to be wronged for, you rough man? I can help you exchange your supplies for rice, potatoes, sweet potatoes, corn, and water, but not meat, I don't have much either."
In fact, Mu Qingyu had two large freezers full of meat, plus the meat she had bought herself before. But she wouldn't exchange it; she now had space to grow her own, and she had even booked an entire seed shop.
Therefore, grains and vegetables are "renewable resources" for her, but meat is not; it is definitely a "non-renewable resource."
Although not all animals in the post-apocalyptic world are inedible, even those that are edible often taste terrible. Given a better option, Mu Qingyu naturally wouldn't choose the inferior one.
Han Yu actually knew that Mu Qingyu wouldn't really let him stay; it was just a fuss.
"I'd also like to exchange some medicine. Gu Jianye is still alive, but his condition isn't good. I'd like to ask Jingchen to take a look at him. If Jingchen needs any supplies, please exchange them for me." Han Yu finally spoke seriously.
"You don't need to give me much. Enough for Gu Jianye and me to make a month's worth is fine. Any more won't last, and we'll have to be wary of others. It's not like we won't go out to find supplies anymore." Han Yu really didn't have any desire to hoard supplies. The way he acted, he was probably thinking that he would just live one day at a time.
Mu Qingyu glanced at Han Yu without saying a word, and finally looked at Ji Qingqing.
Ji Qingqing was a little flustered. She hadn't expected Mu Qingyu to invite her today. Mu Qingyu hadn't agreed to take her along at all; she had gone on her own initiative.
"I...I've already taken a big bag of supplies..." Ji Qingqing said hesitantly.
When Mu Qingyu found Li Ke's supplies in the basement, she packed a large bag and gave it to Ji Qingqing.
Yesterday, Ji Qingqing returned home to find the family nearly out of food and supplies. Luckily, she got back in time.
The main reason was the arrival of strangers in the village. Otherwise, Ji Susu, with her three children, could always find something to eat by searching around the village.
But ever since outsiders came to the village, Ji Susu and her three children have been too afraid to go out.
After everyone had expressed their opinions, Mu Qingyu finally spoke up: "I'm not going to pretend to be generous and insist on fair distribution."
"The equipment and helicopter I took from the hospital are useless to you, and you can't take them with you, so I won't include this part in the allocation."
"I also brought some clean beds and blankets. It's not very meaningful to divide these things equally. You can take them if you need them. I'll give them to you anytime you need them."
"The rest are the supplies that Li Ke placed in the air-raid shelter under the outpatient building, half of the supplies that we got from Jin Qinjiu, and Cheng Xijun's supplies. There are five of us in total, so we'll divide them into five equal parts. Each of us will take one part."
“If you want to exchange it for something else, we can exchange and offset these five portions. What do you think?” This was the fairest solution Mu Qingyu could come up with.
Unexpectedly, Han Yu shook his head: "I have an objection."
Then everyone turned to look at him.
Han Yu said innocently, "You keep Cheng Xijun's share. You killed him; it has nothing to do with us. If you hadn't killed him, no one would have gotten that portion of the supplies."
Everyone else then nodded in agreement.
Then Han Yu said, "I really don't need to go through all that trouble of dividing things up." He pointed to Mu Qingrong: "Your brother doesn't need to be divided up, right?"
Then she pointed at Mo Huaiyu: "This child is living in your house now, eating and sleeping here. Just leave him some snacks. He's still seeing Jingchen for medical treatment, right? Set aside some money for his medical expenses. The rest can all be considered rent. Let these two children stay as long as you want. Why do you have to calculate so much? Aren't you tired of it?"
