Chapter 177: People's Livelihood Plan
Shu Wan saw the awkwardness in Rong Chen's heart and couldn't help but smile. He thought to himself that Rong Chen was such a proud and arrogant person that he wouldn't say anything at this time.
"Dear fellow villagers, please be patient!" Shu Wan signaled everyone to stop and listen to her.
Perhaps it was because she was so beautiful and her voice was so pleasant, so the people really quieted down.
"We already know the current situation in Songyang County, and your city lord also rushed here at the first opportunity!" Shu Wan tried to comfort them. "I understand your desire to get out and find a way to survive, but please listen to my advice. In fact, it may not be safe outside now. On the contrary, it may be more dangerous than Songyang County!"
"How is that possible? You are fooling us!"
"That's right, right now there is no place more dangerous than Songyang County!"
"I think you just want to trap us to death in Songyang County. In this way, if we are sacrificed, there will be no plague in other places. We want to get out and we want to live!"
…
The people just thought that Shu Wan was exaggerating and wanted them to die here, so they became even more excited and even wanted to come up and pull Shu Wan away.
"But think about it, if Blackwater City really gave up on you, why would the city lord come?" Shu Wan had a headache. "If he really didn't care about your life or death and was ready to sacrifice Songyang County and you, why would he take the risk and rush here at the first opportunity? Wouldn't it be better for him to directly order Songyang County to be sealed off and let you fend for yourself? Why would he risk being infected and come here!"
After these words were spoken, the voice became quieter.
But the people are still very confused and puzzled!
"Everyone, Songyang County is the first place where the plague appeared, so this place will definitely receive the top priority in treatment and prevention!" Shu Wan continued to speak only after seeing that they had calmed down a little.
"But none of us can guarantee that there won't be an outbreak of a plague more serious than Songyang County in other places. If you go out and don't wake up, and you really go to a place where the plague is still lurking, will you be safe?"
"At least, now that we are in Songyang County, everyone is alert and knows how to take precautions. You won't necessarily be infected. Once you go to other places where you think you are safe and relax your vigilance, there will be endless troubles!"
"But, but..."
They felt that what Shu Wan said seemed to make sense and wanted to refute it, but they didn't know where to start.
"I assure you here that since we are here, we will live and die together with Songyang County and all the people here!"
"We will not leave until the epidemic is effectively controlled!"
…
"You have some truth in what you said, but the plague is so serious now that we can hardly move. What can we eat and drink? If we just wait like this, we will die sooner or later!"
This is also a very serious problem. Once the pause button is pressed on Songyang County, people's livelihood will become a big problem. Lack of clothes and shelter from rain are easy to solve, but food, there are 300,000 people in the county, all with open mouths. Without food, everything is empty talk.
"Everyone, rest assured. We have already thought of this problem." Shu Wan felt that everything else would be easy after he could appease these people. "From now on, until the end of the plague, we will be responsible for the food and drink of everyone in Songyang County!"
