Chapter 607
In Li Xue's office. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
Zheng Liang sat opposite Li Xue with some restraint, pondered for a while, and then spoke: "Captain Li Base, we are here this time to ask for help from the Hope Base. ”
Li Xue raised her eyebrows: "Oh, what's going on?" ”
Zheng Liang said in a low voice: "Since that flood, our S base has suffered heavy losses, and Mr. Jia was unfortunately killed. ”
Li Xue was surprised: "Mr. Jia was killed?" ”
Zheng Liang nodded heavily, Mr. Jia has the grace of knowing him, and most of the achievements he has achieved today are inseparable from Mr. Jia.
Li Xue sighed regretfully, Mr. Jia is a very respectable person. At the beginning of the small base in City A, because of her words, Mr. Jia did it without saying a word for the safety of the residents of the base. It can be seen that he is a very loving and responsible ......
Zheng Liang continued, "Later, because of the improper handling of some follow-up events after the flood, a large-scale plague was triggered, and more than half of the S base was killed and injured. Most of the materials in the base were washed away, and although the grain was replanted later, it may be that the purification work was not done thoroughly enough, and the harvest was not very good. Then it snowed heavily, and although you provided a method of making cotton clothes from reed flowers, many old people in the base could not survive it. The worst thing is that now the base is running out of food. ”
Li Xue understood: "So, do you want to borrow food this time?" ”
Zheng Liang nodded, and then shook his head again: "We are indeed here for food, but we are not borrowing, we are buying." After all, food is so precious now, if you use borrowed it, it will definitely make you suffer. ”
Li Xue frowned: "But you haven't thought about it, what if our base has no food?" Although it is true that our base has received a lot of grain at the beginning, you should have also received the news, and I hope that the population of the base will increase to one million later. But our growing area has not expanded much, so it is a problem that the grain is only for the consumption of our own base. ”
As soon as Zheng Liang heard this, his face immediately darkened, although he had already expected this situation when he came, but when the facts were in front of him, it was still difficult to accept. If there is no food even for the Hope Base, then the Base is even less of a base.
Could it be that all the people of Base S are going to starve to death? That's a million people!
Li Xue thought for a while and said, "Don't worry, we still have some food, but this matter is too important, I have to discuss it with other ministers." After all, we also have such a big base to raise. ”
Zheng Liang rekindled his hope and nodded excitedly: "Okay, okay." ”
After sending Zheng Liang away, Li Xue invited all the other ministers over.
"I called you here to let everyone discuss how to solve this matter? Whether the grain is to be sold, or not to be sold. Li Xue said Zheng Liang's intentions, and then asked everyone for their opinions.
Guo Qing naturally knew their intentions after receiving Zheng, and he knew that Li Xue had food in his hands, but this matter was not so simple.
Zhang Hu and Zhang Long naturally disapproved of this matter because they didn't know the situation in Li Xue's space: "There must not be much food in our base, if it weren't for the food in your hands, I'm afraid we would have drunk the northwest wind a long time ago." If we sell grain to base S at this juncture, if nothing else, it will be difficult for the people of our base to pass this level. ”
Li Xue smiled: "You don't have to worry about the food, the food in my hand is definitely enough." Besides, our growing area is almost cleared, so I think this is the time to start trying to grow some frost-resistant crops, such as winter wheat. I believe that it will not be long before our base will be able to eat the newly planted food. ”
Xiang Dong was a little worried: "Even if we can sell grain to Base S, if other bases receive the news and come to buy grain, what will we do then?" ”
At that time, whether it is sold or not, it will be a troublesome matter. How to explain the origin of so much grain? If you don't sell it, it will be tantamount to offending other bases.
The other members of the Hope Squad thought the same thing. This is not only a question of whether to sell or not, but also a lot of troubles in the future.
Of course, Li Xue also knows this: "If it is not sold, then the millions of people in the S base will only have a dead end." ”
There was silence in the room.
Indeed, if this batch of grain is not sold, then it will not be long before the bad news of the S base can be heard. However, if this batch of grain is sold, I am afraid that other bases will follow closely and ask for help.
To sell or not to sell, a dilemma.
Seeing that it was getting late, and there was no result for a while, Li Xue said: "Let's go back today, and then discuss it tomorrow." It's best to give an explanation to the S base of the other people as soon as possible, even if this batch of grain is not sold, so that they can quickly find another way. ”
Everyone nodded and left.
Li Xue and Xiang Dong went home together with the little apple.
Xiang Dong saw Li Xue's frowning brows all the time, and said, "Actually, you want to sell grain, right?" ”
Li Xue nodded: "If you don't sell it, let me watch so many people starve to death, I can't do it." If I don't have that ability, there's no way around it. But I have the ability to keep those people alive. ”
Li Xue covered her face a little sadly. This feeling is really bad, just like when the H base had an accident, although the matter of the H base has nothing to do with her, but she still can't help but think that if she had sold food to the H base, maybe many people would not have died.
Xiang Dong looked at Li Xue's self-torturing appearance, and felt a little distressed, he understood Li Xue's current mood. She has the ability to save the lives of those people, but for various reasons she can't help others, and even has to watch those people die, this feeling is really torturous.
Li Xue's face was buried in the palm of her hand, and she said in a somewhat muffled voice: "Xiangdong, do you know?" I always thought that God had given me this space so that I could help people through this cruel last days. "Her rebirth, and this space, is not just for revenge.
"But now, knowing that so many people need food, I am always hesitant for fear that being exposed will cause trouble. The thought of how many people might die because of my selfishness makes me feel so sad. ”
Xiang Dong walked up to Li Xue, pulled away her hand covering her face, and took her into his arms. Sighed: "If you want to help, then help!" ”
