1,521 people, which is indeed a huge number for the current security zone, this number makes all the people in the conference room feel the pressure, after all, the more people in the security zone, the more difficult it is to manage.

Xie Tian asked Junko, "What is the situation of those people?" ”

"It's quite honest, but they are all grizzled, and it seems that most people are hungry enough." Junko pursed her lips and said, "This time there are still a lot of old people and children"

"Old people and children?" Xie Tian was also stunned, these two groups are extremely rare groups since the end of the world, because the resistance of the elderly and children is relatively weak, most of them have been infected at the beginning of the outbreak of the zombie virus, even if they have not been infected and survived, these two groups because of their physical fitness and age, the pressure and difficulty of surviving are much greater than that of ordinary people.

Xie Tian frowned and said, "Junzi, you go and count all the old people and children under the age of 15 and over the age of 55." ”

Junko nodded, and was about to turn around and leave, when Xie Tian said again: "Come back, the male surname is over 55 years old, and the female surname is over 50 years old." ”

"Okay." Shunzi hurriedly did it, but Xie Tian began to make difficulties, and after a while, Xie Tian raised his head and said to everyone: "The elderly and children, no matter what, they can't be allowed to go out on adventures, so let's do it, all children under the age of 15 will be provided with basic food for life by the safety zone, as for the elderly, depending on the situation, they can be assigned some easier work, regardless of the size of the workload, they must meet the standard of food and clothing, what do you think?" ”

Everyone supported Xie Tian's opinion, and Zhao Ziye said: "The elderly and children are vulnerable groups, and it is not easy to survive in the last days, and it is of course best to provide them with the food they need." ”

Xie Tian nodded and said, "That's all for this problem, let's continue to discuss the issue of management." ”

"Lao Song, you choose an office in the general control building, set up a Ministry of Public Security, and set up a Ministry of Public Security, which is not only to maintain law and order and stability, but also to accept reports from survivors, you will treat it as a police station, and you are the minister."

"Good guy, ministerial" Song Hui laughed: "I didn't expect the Provisional Military Commission to exempt me from my military rank, Xiao Xie, you can still give me a minister, okay!" I did this minister! ”

Xie Tian said with a smile: "Lao Song, your surname is real, and you are fair, but the only drawback is that your wrist and heart are a little soft, let Lao Liu be the deputy minister, you two learn from each other's strengths, and you must stabilize the order in the security zone." ”

"No problem." Liu Mu patted his shoulder and said, "Leave it to us, you can rest assured." ”

Xie Tian smiled and said: "The other sections are also departmental words, after all the departments are determined, all are listed for the public, the material section is called the logistics department, the personnel section is called the human resources department, and the finance department is the Ministry of Finance." ”

Immediately, Xie Tian thought of the problem of production and said, "Do any of you know anything about crops?" I saw a lot of farmland around here, and I didn't look carefully at what was planted in it. ”

"Rice." Lao Zheng said: "I went to see it once, but the rice planted in these rice fields has not been taken care of for more than three months, coupled with the extreme drought this summer, I have not seen much rain, so almost all of them have been wasted, even if we mobilize people to harvest, I estimate that one acre of land can harvest more than ten or twenty catties of edible rice is already very good, but we are located in the south of the Yangtze River, and now at this time, it is the time to plant rice." ”

"What is the yield per acre of rice?" Xie Tian asked.

Lao Zheng smiled: "This is not good, it is generally a few hundred kilograms." ”

Xie Tian thought for a moment and said: "There is a lot of farmland nearby, but it is difficult for us to use it, if we can start sowing seeds this year, then next year's supplies will not be so tight, but we don't master the technology of farming." ”

Xie Yufei said: "Judging from the current environment, all the survivors are in the pure consumption stage, I believe that in this case, it is difficult for the world to organize effective production activities, especially crops, the production cycle is long, but at present, the amount of surplus materials is still very large, after all, I used to work in COFCO, it is said that the national grain reserves alone, at least 200 million tons." ”

"This won't work." Xie Tian shook his head and sighed: "All food materials have a food expiration date, rice, wheat, can not be eaten for a long time, canned food, basically after a year, it will be over, if it is calculated like this, by the spring of next year, we will not be able to find canned food that can be eaten, and by that time, vitamins will not know where to supplement." ”

"Vegetables can be grown!" Lao Zheng said: "Many vegetables have a short growth cycle, such as oily wheat cabbage, if you sow it now, you can eat it in autumn, if you can find seeds, we can try to plant it." ”

"This one does." Xie Tian nodded and said, "You have to try everything, otherwise if you wait another year or two, there will be no food to eat in the world, which is even more terrible than the zombie virus." ”

Lao Zheng said: "Since you talked about vitamins, I think we can also take the time to look for wild vegetables and other things nearby, in addition, it is about to enter autumn, and there are many plants ripening after autumn, even if no one takes care of them, but there will still be some fruits." ”

"Well, this can be implemented around the Mid-Autumn Festival." Xie Tian paused, and then said: "Let's just discuss a rough idea today, we need to further improve it in the future, everyone will perform their duties from now on, Xiaohe, Yufei, you go to the coal yard with me to see the situation of those survivors." ”

At this moment, hundreds of cars were parked in the large open space of the coal yard, most of the people were sitting in the car, because there were soldiers to take care of them, they could not move freely in the power plant for the time being, after Xie Tian arrived, these people heard that the leaders of the safety zone were coming, and they walked out of the car, Xie Tian looked at the more than 1,500 people, all of them were gray and embarrassed, most of them seemed very unenergetic, it seemed that the trek along the way was indeed difficult for them to bear.

Shunzi strode over and said to Xie Tian: "Brother Xie, there are a total of 27 children under the age of 15, the youngest is only four years old, 22 men over 55 years old, 34 women over 50 years old, a total of 83 people. ”

Xie Tian nodded, thinking in his heart, 83 people are acceptable, if there are too many people, the pressure of feeding them is enough to bear themselves, so he said: "Very good Shunzi, you go to the cooking side first, let them cook a meal, just say that it is 83 old people and children, they will grasp the proportions." ”

"Okay." Shunzi turned around and left, Xie Tian simply climbed to the coal mountain and said to everyone: "You should all come from Changsha, right?" ”

The following answer was affirmative, Xie Tian nodded, and said: "Welcome to everyone first, such a long road is indeed hard, but when you get here, I can tell you responsibly that you are safe for the time being, and you also saw our army when you entered the city, and there is a strong defense force here, so you can rest assured." ”

Immediately, Xie Tian explained the situation and policies in the safe zone to everyone, and when he finished speaking, a few prickly young men below shouted, "Why don't you give us food?" Do you sit idly by while we starve to death? ”

Xie Tian glanced at the place where the voice came from, and saw several young men in their twenties shouting with him below, so he said coldly: "People with hands and feet, why do you want others to give you food?" I can tell you, all the food in this safe zone was found by us at the risk of our lives, so why should we feed you? I tell you, in this safe zone, only people who are willing to put in the effort, it is impossible to sit back and enjoy the results here, if you are not willing to put in the effort, as long as you obey the management of the safe zone in the safe zone, I will not kick you out, but when you starve to death, I will throw your body out and burn it with fire! ”

The man was so frightened by Xie Tian's strength that he didn't dare to say anything more, and Xie Tian immediately said: "One of my officers has just counted your ages, all children under the age of 15, male surnames over 55 years old, and female surnames over 50 years old, please stand up." ”

No one knew what Xie Tian's intention was to separate the old man and the child, but because they were new to the country, and they were under the fence, Xie Tian told them to do so, and soon, the old man and the child stood on the far left side of the survivors, and Xie Tian counted the number of people, and it was indeed 83.

"You 83 elderly people and children, in the future, will be provided with food by the safety zone, of course, it is only the amount of food needed for daily survival, but if you elderly people have some specialties, you can also participate in the work of the safety zone according to your physical condition, and different jobs will have different pay."

Immediately, Xie Tian said to Li Xiaohe: "Xiaohe, you give them these 83 people a log, these people's food in the future will be responsible for the safety zone, Yufei, you are responsible for the statistics of materials, how many materials need to be allocated to them every day, there must be an estimate." ”

"Okay." The two women agreed, and then Xie Yufei assisted Li Xiaohe to start registering 83 old people and children, and a middle-aged man with glasses opened his mouth and asked: "Leader, you said that the scale of your here is only 500 people, and we have so many people at once, how can you provide a job for each of us?" In other words, how do those who don't get jobs survive? ”

Xie Tian said lightly: "The nearest Fengcheng, camphor trees dozens of kilometers away, these two cities have not been bombed by the military, the remaining amount of materials should be very large, you can organize a search team, to search for food and materials in these two cities, our ability is limited, to ensure the survival of these old people and children is already very difficult, so we can only ensure your safety in the safety zone, as for your food problem, I'm sorry, we can't do anything, this can only rely on yourself." ”
