"Alright, let's stop guessing and get this sorted out first."
"Aren't we going to a meeting soon? I reckon that given the current situation, the amount of grain delivered this year is already much less than in previous years, so the chances of receiving relief grain from above are slim. It'll probably have to be a matter of each unit showing their spirit."
Lin Zhengde lamented the doctor,
"I knew it, we couldn't avoid it."
