Natural Disaster: My Portable Farm in the End of the World

After a second's pause, they both spoke at the same time.

"You go ahead and say it."

"You speak first!"

The good sisters came up with a telepathic two-hit combo.

Xiang Chi and Xue Can couldn't help laughing. After laughing for a while, Xiang Chi squeezed Xue Can's arm and asked worriedly.

"Why have you lost so much weight? Didn't you eat well?"

Xue Can was a plump and gorgeous beauty before, but now she looks at least 20 pounds lighter than before!

Xiang Chi touched her arm. It was almost skinny and not at all as plump as before.

Xue Can smiled brightly, showing some white teeth.

"It's good to have something to eat now. How dare you not eat well? I'm just too busy and tired from work."

Xiang Chi asked in surprise:

"Then you are too thin. I don't see that many patients, so why are you still so busy?"

Xue Can held his forehead and sighed.

"It looks like a small amount, but it's actually quite a lot."

Xue Can gestured with his hands and continued:

"It's just the three of us on the whole floor. We're lucky today. Normally we have to squeeze in time to eat."

Xiang Chi looked at the extremely thin Xue Can and wanted to persuade her to find a way to return to the office, so he asked her the same question.

Xue Can was silent for a while and sighed.

"Do you think I don't want to go back? Who wants to be tired like this? It is a mandatory rule in the hospital that everyone under the age of 40 in the office must support the nursing department."

Xue Can approached Xiang Chi and whispered gossip in her ear.

"The round-faced little girl wearing glasses at the nurse's desk just now, do you know who his father is?"

Xiang Chi shook his head and asked curiously:

"Who is it? Could it be the dean? I remember the dean's son is from the family..."

Xue Can covered his mouth with his hand and said angrily in Xiang Chi's ear:

"Deputy Dean Ge's daughter, Dean Zhang has less than a year to retire, her health is not good, and she hasn't come to work for a long time. Now Vice Dean Ge has the final say."

Xiang Chi's eyes widened in surprise, and he followed Xue Can's example and said angrily:

"Then his daughter is still here?"

Xue Can nodded vigorously.

"So, no one can even think about going back to the office now. The daughter of the vice president is still fighting on the front line. It turns out that those people from the Medical Insurance Office want to go back, and there has been a lot of noise. Ever since..."

Xue Can pointed in the direction of the nurse's desk.

"Ever since that person came down from the hospital office, everyone has shut up..."

Xiang Chi covered his mouth and snickered, making a powerful gesture.

"Deputy Dean Ge is still very powerful. He can defeat others with just one move."

Xue Can curled his lips,

"No, it makes me unable to go back even if I want to, and I can't even open my mouth... But fortunately, I earn a lot on the front line. Now we are responsible for three meals a day, and we still have thirty kilograms of food subsidy every month."

Xue Can changed the topic and asked about Xiang Chi's situation.

"How are you now? Are uncle and aunt okay?"

Xiang Chi replied.

"We're all fine, don't worry."

Xiang Chi remembered something serious and asked Xue Can.

"I passed by your house and took a look. Why haven't you been home for a long time?"

Xue Can explained that since gasoline control began, various gas stations have stopped selling gasoline. People who drive to and from the hospital approached the hospital leaders and wanted to solve this problem.

At first, the hospital was responsible for providing the gasoline, but later it was discovered that the burden was too heavy, and some people secretly sold the gasoline to poach the hospital.

There was no other way, so the hospital simply consolidated the offices in the administrative building and cleared out three floors to use as staff dormitories.

There is not enough space, and the basement and first floor of the inpatient building are occupied.

Xiang Chi was stunned when he heard this. She spoke in disbelief.

"What? The basement level? That...that's not the same level as the morgue!"

Xue Can nodded helplessly,

"No, the west side is the morgue, and the east side has been cleared out and used as a dormitory. A wall has been built in the middle to seal it off. Each has its own staircase."

Xiang Chi covered his face, unable to complain, what does "everyone takes his own stairs..." mean.

This move of the hospital is also strange. This is some kind of operation from the underworld.

Xiang Chi quickly asked Xue Can whether she would be unlucky enough to be assigned to the dormitory on the basement floor.

Xue Can said that when the hospital mobilized people from departments to go to the front line, she saw the situation clearly and was among the first batch, so she was later assigned a better dormitory in the administrative building.

Xiang Chi wondered how someone could be willing to live in the lower basement and be neighbors in the morgue?

Xue Can said slightly mockingly:

"What can you do if you don't want to? The people assigned to live there are those who were caught by the hospital secretly selling oil. If you want to live there, you can go. If you don't want to, get out of the hospital."

Xiang Chi was a little confused. Was the hospital leader so strong this time?

Xue Can also cleared up her doubts.

The current person in charge of the hospital is Vice President Ge. Although there is the word "vice" in front of it, he is indeed the top leader.

The original boss, Dean Zhang, retired this year and is in poor health. He has gone home to take care of himself and is preparing to retire.

All the affairs of the hospital, large and small, have been given full authority to Vice President Ge.

Vice President Ge came from the Military Medical University and had a tough style. He was furious when he found out that someone inside the hospital was selling gasoline.

Although Vice President Ge has been retired for many years, his sense of justice and responsibility is still the same as before, and he especially hates this kind of poaching from socialism.

Violently and resolutely, he caught a group of people and packed them all up and sent them to the police station, regardless of the quantity they were selling.

In troubled times, heavy penalties were used, and those who resold a large amount were sentenced to fixed-term imprisonment ranging from one to five years. Those who sold a small amount were not only given an education but also fined grain.

Being in jail now is not the same as before. Now you will be assigned different tasks depending on the nature of the crime you committed.

Those who are of a bad nature are sent to the shelter to dig caves and move rocks. Generally, they are sent to factories to produce necessities.

It's not that no one made trouble, but Vice President Ge suppressed them all with thunderous means.

Vice-President Ge himself is a very upright person. In addition, he and Commander Song stationed in Dancheng are in the same relationship (the man who married two sisters). With this relationship, Vice-President Ge is even more stubborn. .

Vice President Ge also said that if you don't want to do it, you can leave. There are many people who are willing to do it.

So even those who were dissatisfied were all moved to the underground floor. After all, they can’t bear to part with this public food.

The two of them sat on the stairs and chatted for a long time, making their mouths dry.

Xiang Chi took out two bottles of water from his backpack, handed one to Xue Can, opened one himself, and drank less than half of it.

Xue Can looked at the water in his hand, paused, looked at Xiang Chi whose eyes were still pure, smiled, and took a sip.

Although Xiang Chi felt sorry for Xue Can, he didn't say anything stupid like asking Xue Can to quit.

I can help Xue Can. I can help for a while, but can I help for the rest of my life?

And Xue Can is not the kind of person to sit back and enjoy his success. If you can live well by yourself, why should you rely on others?
