Chapter 20 Distribution of Supplies
When they heard that the community workers had made arrangements, they didn't say anything more. The next step was to wait for the supplies.
The special aid distribution was led by a community worker and two volunteers. The community worker was responsible for registration, and the volunteers were responsible for carrying and distributing the supplies. In addition, the community worker also said in the group: "The poisonous fog in the corridor has disappeared, and the door can be opened. However, the poisonous fog outside has not dissipated. Residents are requested not to open the windows."
However, just as the community staff sent out the message, the windows of some quick-handed residents' homes had already been opened.
This is really terrible. Even though the rescue work has been launched, it is only aimed at providing food rations to each family. Medical care... really cannot be solved for the time being.
Those who had already opened their windows saw the community's belated announcement and began to criticize, "Why are you only telling us such important news now?"
However, the community staff didn't even need to explain, as someone in the group was already saying, "Isn't this basic common sense? Why did the community seal off the corridors to pump out the gas fog, and why didn't they seal off the entire community?"
"Oh my god, there really are such stupid people."
"Oh my god, I almost opened it just now. Luckily my wife slapped me, otherwise I would be finished now. Thank you, my wife."
"Are people's IQs these days so impressive? They're saying it's the poisonous fog in the corridor. Are your windows outside and the corridor adjacent to each other?"
"Exactly. I don't know what these people are thinking. Besides, the community has already sent out the news very quickly. Basically, as soon as the notice was sent out, they told everyone not to open the windows. Who told you to be so quick?"
…
Such messages have never stopped in the group, but the community staff have no time to read them. They have already started distributing supplies without stopping.
The supplies were distributed from the top floor downwards. The community staff also had in their hands the list of people who had registered before the poisonous gas. They went from top to bottom and first came to the 33rd floor, which was where the senior high school student lived. Lan Jin didn't hear clearly what was said above, but they all came down very quickly.
Lan Jin opened the door and saw three people in protective suits standing at her door. Before they could speak, Lan Jin was the first to greet them: "Hello."
"Hello, Ms. Lan, we are community workers. Before we distribute the supplies, could you please show us your ID? I remember you registered a dog, and you said you had your ID. Could you please register it for me as well?"
Lan Jin took out the documents that he had prepared in advance from the cabinet next to him (actually a space). Because he had to deliver supplies, after confirming the community staff's documents, Lan Jin opened the door of his house.
Don't blame her for being too cautious. After all, this is the end of the world, and it's always better to be careful.
The community workers had no objection to Lan Jin's caution. What was wrong with a woman being more cautious with a child?
The staff member first showed his or her ID, and then Lan Jin opened the door. She handed her ID to the community staff to complete the registration.
She is the head of the household of this house. There are only her and her child on the household registration book, and the registered address is exactly the current address. It is equivalent to registering both the person and the household in the same place, which is not a problem. After registering her and the child, the next thing is the dog license. Anyway, the two people and the dog have all the necessary documents.
After the staff registered her, they returned the documents to her and explained, "Because you have a dog license, there is dog food in the rescue supplies for dogs with dog licenses."
Lan Jin was really surprised by this. Now they couldn't even take care of people, but the people above them could still take care of dog food. "I didn't expect that the people above them could still take care of these details for us at this time. Thank you so much."
The staff member explained, "It's mainly because you have a dog license. These days, things are so difficult out there, and it's hard to deliver relief supplies. Those with licenses must follow the rules. If you can't produce a license, I can't give you this dog food."
Anyway, now it’s all about the documents. In this way, Lan Jin is really grateful that he had resolutely moved the household registration here and applied for a dog license.
There was a big bag of dog food, which was enough for the dog to eat for a whole month, but it was only food for the dog. She and the children did not have enough food to last for that long.
The community worker said, "Dog food isn't included. The relief supplies are for a week. We distribute supplies per person, regardless of whether you're an adult or a child. Oh, excluding babies, of course. So, since there are two of you in your family, a week's supply would be two large bags (or ten small bags) of instant noodles, six boxes of self-heating rice, four boxes of compressed biscuits, and four bottles of mineral water."
The community worker's explanation must be because she was with her child. Some things should be made clear in advance to avoid trouble later, and these supplies are actually not a small amount.
Of course, it is definitely not enough if you want to eat as much as you want, but if you save a little, there may be more. In such a difficult time like now, it is good enough to have supplies coming down from above. Who dares to ask for enough to eat?
Furthermore, to cater to the children's taste, the community workers gave them ten packets of non-spicy instant noodles, which made her very grateful. "Thank you so much."
"You're welcome. We'll only come to your door once for supplies, mainly to facilitate registration for each household. Next time you'll have to go get it yourself. Okay, we're leaving now."
"Okay, Qiao Qiao, thank your uncle and aunt quickly and say goodbye to them."
Ren Siqiao had been standing by her side the whole time. Now it was her turn to speak. She quickly smiled sweetly and said, "Thank you, uncle and aunt. Goodbye, uncle and aunt."
"Goodbye, little one."
Lan Jin closed the door of her house and looked at the supplies that had just been piled on the table. She felt very happy. At least with these supplies, many people would not starve anymore.
However, Lan Jin had no intention of eating these things for the time being. There was plenty of food in her space, so why bother touching these... not-so-delicious foods first?
After putting the supplies into the space, she then looked at the messages in the group. Who would have thought that in such a short time, someone had already started complaining in the group, "No, it's just this little food, is it enough to fill you up?"
"Of course you won't be full, but we're not here to make you full, we're just trying to keep you alive. If you want to eat enough, go volunteer. We provide three meals a day, plus two bags of instant noodles. It's okay if you're not full, you can have a snack when you get home."
"Is that what I meant? I'm telling you, if you're distributing supplies, you should just distribute them all at once. What's the point of distributing them for a week? Is it possible that the fog will clear in a week? Then we can go to work?"
"What are you thinking? The supplies won't be sent out week by week. Are they going to be sent all at once in a month? What if you finish making them in a week? Do you still want more?"
