Chapter 92: Advocating for Women
Adam was still working as a security guard on the day shift, and he was embarrassed to see Zhang Le again. Zhang Le has not only just completed the task of the Northern Passage, but also became the vice president of Rock Town Hospital, and the friends who know Zhang Le have already learned about these important news from various channels. Adam didn't expect that the guy he occasionally knew would become a big man in Rock Town, and what was even happier was that Zhang Le still regarded him as a friend as he did at the beginning.
Zhang Le saw that Adam had nothing to do, it was nothing more than bragging with acquaintances, just like people who mixed well like to participate in class reunions, and returning to the ranch to show off was a reason for Zhang Le to return to his hometown.
Leaving the ranch, Zhang Le came to the task hall of the Postal Union. Sure enough, the ant quest and the Northern Passage quest, which had been at the top, were all canceled. Now, in addition to the regular acquisition and hunting tasks, there is a new top task: long-term recruitment of female pure-blooded normal humans to join Rock Town, free food and lodging for half a year, and solve work problems. For each woman you introduce to The Rocks, you can earn a $200 brokerage fee.
It seems that the shortage of female companions has attracted a great deal of attention from the higher-ups of Rock Town. At the beginning, I heard Adam say that the town had promised to give everyone a wife, but judging from the current situation, the possibility of achieving it is extremely slim.
First of all, women are not objects, and even parents cannot force their daughters to marry someone they don't like, let alone outsiders. Moreover, in this last days, one-night stands or short-lived couples are no problem, but women's willingness to marry is low.
Therefore, this time, the town only introduced a more lenient action for women to choose male partners, so that women dominated. The ratio of men to women in Rock Town is normal, and there are a little more women, because it is more men who carry out dangerous tasks, and women have a higher chance of surviving in the safer towns.
Originally, women were only allowed to choose male partners one-on-one, but this policy was extremely opposed by female executives. Because forcing women to find a male partner is already excessive, it is also a policy compromise for "good" men to be shared by at least three women.
These unspeakable things have led to the current shortage of women. The reality is cruel, wives are scarce, and there is no good way in the town, so we can only vigorously introduce women to alleviate this problem.
In the final analysis, these problems are caused by the lack of material abundance, many townspeople live one day at a time, one-night stand is no problem, and they can't afford to marry a wife, which also leads to the scarcity of the town's newborn population like dinosaurs, I have heard of it, I have never seen it.
Since Zhang Le plans to establish a force, I am afraid that he will also have to face this problem. Housing, health care, and education are the three mountains that weigh on the heads of mankind in the old era, and since these problems must become not problems in this new era.
"Jaime, what are you doing, don't you have to go to work today?" Zhang Le was building a grand blueprint for a new era in his mind, and Ms. Jesse's voice came. It's afternoon, and there are very few people in the mission hall, Ms. Jesse opened the small door, walked out from behind the counter, and continued in a low voice: "It's not like before, you have to feed a large family, and you can't do nothing every day." ”
"I ...... Take on a mission, tomorrow is the weekend, the hospital is closed! Zhang Le remembered a good excuse.
"That's right, look after you, come on! By the way, the new residential base has been approved, and it is in the southern suburbs, and the materials for building the house must be prepared in advance. Jesse nodded with satisfaction, assigned a new task to Zhang Le, and went in to get busy with work again.
"I still like to be single!" Zhang Le said with a melancholy expression.
It's a pity that life has to go on, and it's done, just this morning, Ms. Jesse has completed the procedures for confirming the relationship between Zhang Le and several female companions.
There are still two hours to get off work, Zhang Le returned to the hospital, ready to take a nap and get off work. As soon as I entered the office, Ms. Mary from the back office followed.
"Dean Jaime, there's a meeting at the hospital at four o'clock in the afternoon, and it's five minutes away, please follow me." Mary said.
Zhang Le could only turn around and follow Mary.
Out of the main building, walk through a glass corridor, into the annex building of the hospital, at the end of the corridor on the first floor, there is a large conference room.
In addition to Dean Robert and Director Mary, five people were present. There were two people I knew, Celle and Dr. Robin. The remaining three are all fresh faces, two typical middle-aged working women, wearing gold-rimmed glasses, middle-to-upper looks, wearing light makeup, one is slightly thin, the other is slightly chubby, but they are all in good spirits. There is also a huge middle-aged fat man, very greasy feeling, in the last days, this kind of person is still rare.
When Robert saw Zhang Le coming in, he nodded to Zhang Le with a smile and said, "Dean Jaime is here, then let's start!" ”
Robert lifted his glasses and continued slowly, "First of all, we welcome the new vice president of Rock Town Hospital, Mr. James. Mr. Jaime is an excellent hunter, the second level of agility mutation, that is, he and the head of the Postal Union's External Liaison Department, Ms. Jesse, have completed the Northern Passage mission together, and at the same time, he is also an excellent doctor, and the General Department is a new department he brought out, and today, alone, nearly three hundred people have come to hang the General Department. ”
Except for Celle and Dr. Robin who were unmoved, everyone else showed surprised looks, but Zhang Le didn't know what they were surprised about.
With Dean Robert's foreshadowing, everyone else had an intuitive understanding of Zhang Le, and they all nodded to Zhang Le to say hello, and Zhang Le also returned the salute one by one. The thin lady was Josephine, vice president, in charge of surgery. The chubby lady is named Daisy, the vice president, who is in charge of internal medicine. The fat man's name is Dave, the director of the hospital's equipment department. Cell, and Robin are doctors of the Super Human Alliance, specializing in medical work related to strange symptoms and mutated creatures, and are in partnership with the hospital, as well as the representatives of the Super Human Alliance in hospitals.
After seeing everyone's greetings, Robert continued to preside over the meeting: "There are two main things to come over today, both of which are very important things, which are related to the future of Rock Town, and are a matter of life and death. The expected heated discussion did not appear, and Robert was a little disappointed, so he had to continue: "The first thing is that the hospital has decided to strengthen the strength of obstetrics and gynecology and maternal and child health care. The second thing is that in the future, Rock Town Hospital will not accept abortion requests in the future. Our goal is for all pregnant women to give birth. Okay, that's these two things, what are your opinions? ”
Cell, and Robin spoke up almost at the same time, "No comment! The rest of the people nodded in agreement. Only Zhang Le was a little dumbfounded, he didn't expect such a strange policy to come out of the town. It stands to reason that there are all kinds of talents in the population of the entire Rock Town, and all positions are held by professionals, but it is a bit unbelievable that this practice of not allowing abortions will be supported by the upper echelons.
Seeing that Zhang Le didn't nod, Robert asked strangely, "Dean Jaime, do you have any opinions?" ”
Zhang Le nodded and asked suspiciously: "I have two questions, first, will the town take care of pregnant women for free?" If a child is born, will the town raise it for free? If both of these points can be solved, there will be no big problem in implementing this policy. However, even so, this policy still has a certain degree of danger, some pregnant women really do not want children, if the hospital does not help, they may have a fetus on their own, which is even more dangerous! ”
Robert's face was a little embarrassed, of course he knew what James said, who in this room didn't know? He actually reacted to the town about this, but this is the town's request, the first reason is that the town does need a new population, and the second reason is that Mayor Theon believes in a certain religion, and he advocates that the unborn fetus also has human rights. But the problem that Zhang Le said also exists, how to raise a child if he can't support himself. But the last days are difficult, the population of the town is increasing, the food gap is getting bigger and bigger, and the town has no extra funds to solve this problem.
What's more important is the reason, the Rock Town Hospital belongs to the subordinate institutions of the town, and in this last age where strength is respected, the hospital has no ability and does not dare to question the town's decision.
Seeing Zhang Le stand up and raise objections, Vice Dean Josephine also began to speak: "I also agree with Dean James's opinion, I didn't want to say it, since Mr. James stood up and spoke for us women, I also have to say two words, women have the right to have children, but they also have the right to decide whether to have children, so I also oppose this policy." ”
Daisy and Mary also nodded at the same time, and said in unison, "I'm against it too!" ”
Fat Dave looked left and right, then at Cell and Robin, and said, "I support it." Celle and Robin glanced at Zhang Le and seemed surprised, but they still raised their hands at the same time and said, "I support." ”
Robert felt a little headache: "I'm really cheap, I actually went to ask James's opinion!" However, Robert is a real scholar at heart, not a politician, so he still admires Zhang Le's sense of justice.
"I am the dean and I will not participate in the vote, four votes to three, against the establishment, the hospital will not implement this policy for the time being. Dean Jaime, I'm going to explain this to Mayor Theon next Monday, can you come with me? After Robert finished speaking, he asked Zhang Le.
"No problem, I'll go see Mayor Theon." Zhang Le agreed.
