Chapter 50: 050 No one is convinced Chapter 50: 050 No one is convinced Hua Mi laughed. She thought Ye Rong’s concerns were reasonable, as her dical supplies were also limited. Despite upgrading her factory several tis, she had only amassed a re hundred thousand pieces of dical supplies.
Because she hadn’t set up a stall to sell recently, those dical supplies hadn’t been touched.
The only items in slight demand were the adult breathing machines and ethanol, as the rescue team needed these two types of supplies.
However, Xiang City’s rescue team didn’t have many people, and no matter how fast the consumption, it wouldn’t amount to much each day.
Recalling this matter, Hua Mi thought, since she was already out of the ergency area, she decided to go see the supply storage guarded by the garrison.
She also needed to collect supplies.
Thus, Hua Mi took out from her large shoulder bag one large bunch of Adult Breathing Machines X33, Children’s Breathing Machines X57, Ethanol X7, a large bunch of Painkillers X987, Hemostatic Gel X28.
A pile of items placed on the RV’s table, she instructed Ye Rong,
“If anyone else cos to buy dical supplies, just sell them and have them scan the code, no discounts.”
Hearing Ye Rong’s acknowledgnt, Hua Mi also called Da Fu and Xiao Fu to collect supplies while taking the kids out for a bit.
She hadn’t walked long when Hua Mi’s phone started ringing continuously with paynt notifications.
Ye Rong sent her a ssage,
[Ye Rong: Miss Hua, people have been continuously coming to buy dical supplies. Seeing too many people, I’ve limited to one item per person for each type of dical supply.]
[Hua Mi: That’s fine, manage it as you see fit.]
She put down her phone, opened her umbrella, and looking up, realized she had already arrived at the entrance of the garrison-guarded open space.
The entrance was too congested. A super large trailer, pulling almost 5 ters high of vegetables, was blocking the entrance.
This was a trailer load of bok choy.
Hua Mi quickly moved forward just in ti to see the trailer driver arguing with the ergency area’s dical supervisor about sothing.
Seeing her approach, the standing guard from the garrison jogged over, saluting Hua Mi.
“What’s all this about?”
Hua Mi shaded her eyes and looked on; the dical supervisor, Ke Minghong, was accompanied by two basic-level administrators.
The garrison replied,
“That Mr. Ke is the dical supervisor of the ergency area, saying he wanted to go in and check if there were any dical supplies. He happened to run into the vegetable delivery driver, as we all need to unload vegetables and no one is free to deal with Mr. Ke, so they aren’t letting him in.”
As a result, Ke Minghong started arguing with the garrison at the supply storage.
The driver delivering the bok choy, anxious to unload and pick up another load, ca down from his truck, sleeves rolled up, and also started arguing with Ke Minghong.
Hua Mi nodded slowly and walked past the battlefield, entering the supply storage with Da Fu and Xiao Fu.
Behind her, Ke Minghong’s voice rang out,
“Isn’t the dical center already under Captain Gong’s control? Why won’t they let in? We don’t have any dical supplies, none at all!”
“How can that woman go in with children? Why can’t I go in? How can your Gong Yi be so partial?”
Distressed by the shouting, Hua Mi frowned, turned back, and glanced at Ke Minghong.
She pursed her lips, then entered the open space where supplies were stored, sending the children off to play and began to collect supplies.
Before entering the ergency area, she had organized a batch of Waterproof Oilcloth for the garrison, asking them to cover the stored supplies in the open space.
The garrison had done a comndable job. Using sewing machines, they stitched together piece after piece of waterproof oilcloth and propped them up with steel pipes to construct several massive tents.
One tent was designated for gasoline barrels, another for diesel barrels, another for rice, another for vegetables, and another for dical supplies. There was also a tent for rescue equipnt.
There was a smaller tent, which housed the parcels for Hua Mi.
Since she had purchased the rescue equipnt online, Post Boss had all the items sent directly to a courier station outside of the city.
The rescue equipnt that the team used daily ant that Captain Gong ordered the garrison to assign a designated person to go out of the city daily to retrieve them.
Since they were heading out anyway for the parcels, the garrison, upon seeing Hua Mi’s deliveries and confirming the last digits of her phone number, directly brought back her parcels to the materials storage ground.
Upon entering the tent, Hua Mi realized that she could collect the supplies without being seen by anyone.
So far, vegetables were the most prevalent items in the tents, almost filling the designated vegetable tent to capacity.
If the trailer-load of bok choy outside were to be unloaded, it would surely have to be placed in the muddy outdoors.
Hurriedly, Hua Mi collected thirty-sothing tons of vegetables and found she hadn’t even collected half of what was stored inside the vegetable tent.
It was only thirty-sothing tons of vegetables, hardly noticeable.
As for the remaining hundreds of tons of vegetables, to avoid suspicion, she could only proceed like an ant—collecting a little each day, day by day.
However, these vegetables stored outside of a level 7 storage would quickly spoil.
Many vegetables placed near the edges of the waterproof oilcloth were already wilting due to dryness and lack of water.
Hua Mi stepped out of the vegetable tent, took out her phone, and texted Gong Yi,
[Hua Mi: How is the rescue team’s food arranged? Can you eat vegetables every al during this period? Because I bought too many, and they’ll go bad if not eaten soon.]
[Gong Yi: …]
He had no ti to reply to Hua Mi’s ssage and just sent a few dots, letting her interpret the aning herself.
Hua Mi then took it to an that henceforth, the daily als for both the garrison and the lifeguards would consist of vegetables.
Happy, she strolled out of the storage tent to have a look outside.
Ke Minghong, already out of energy to argue, found a stool to sit on, quietly fuming.
Ignoring him, the other garrison mbers helped the trailer driver unload the bok choy.
Hua Mi caught a glimpse of Ke Minghong; he glared back at her, his eyes seemingly viewing her as a harbinger of chaos.
“Tsk!”
Hua Mi scoffed and walked to the garrison tent to check the recent dical supplies’ collection records.
She asked the garrison mber responsible for the records,
“The batch of dical supplies I bought last ti was mostly borrowed by the ergency area. Did they pay for it?”
“No, the ergency area claid it was a matter of life and death, didn’t pay, and didn’t ntion when they would.”
Hua Mi listened as the garrison diligently reported, pausing before he spoke of the conflict that day with Ke Minghong,
“Usually, when the ergency area needs to borrow our dical supplies, we don’t make a fuss or complain. But they went as far as to chase our people out of the ergency area, and we are also running low on our dical supplies.”
This was the main reason for today’s negative reactions from the garrison toward Ke Minghong.
Why should they loan out dical supplies to the rescue team without receiving any particular consideration in return?
For this matter, although Captain Gong had not spoken out, from top to bottom, whether it was the rescue team or the garrison, no one was really satisfied.
