Chapter 25 Difficulties

Zhu Wei and Zhang Guowei did not let Li Meng wait for long. After a while, under the leadership of Wang Yanmei, the three of them walked into the Governor's office together.

"Governor, are you looking for us?"

Standing in front of the desk, Zhu Wei lowered his head slightly, with only awe in his eyes, and asked carefully.

Those soldiers were very useful and obedient. Because of the existence of those soldiers, he had no difficulty in forming a security team. It was very smooth, and the security management system of the shelter was already on the right track.

The more powerful and obedient those soldiers were, the more Zhu Wei felt that the Governor behind the desk was unfathomable.

Zhu Wei could not understand why those big soldiers would obey the seemingly thin Governor.

Those soldiers were also very strange. They did not eat the food of the security team. Whenever it was time to eat, they would change shifts. They would also be loyal to their duties during the night patrols. There was no "laziness" in them, and they could execute his orders very well.

Looking at the three people at the table, Li Meng asked, "How is your mission going?"

In response to Li Meng's words, Zhu Wei quickly said, "It's almost done. The security team system has been established. The headquarters is located in the supermarket where I originally lived. The staff has also been recruited. I have handed the population census documents to Secretary Qian."

Hearing this, Li Meng looked away from Zhu Wei and looked at Zhang Guowei.

Seeing Li Meng's eyes looking over, Zhang Guowei said: "The exploration team and the transport team have established a basic system. If the governor takes action, the personnel can be organized immediately..."

With a calm expression on his face, Li Meng nodded and said; "Very good, the three of you have completed your tasks. I am sure of your abilities, but the next thing to do is to prove your talents..."

Speaking of this, Li Meng's eyes were fixed on Zhang Guowei, and he said: "Immediately organize an exploration team. Starting from tomorrow, explore around Qing'an City to the nuclear explosion area. Let them go further and find more supplies. This is the future task of the exploration team. You must keep the eyes of the exploration team, the shelter, a little brighter, otherwise, the Qing'an shelter will be destroyed due to lack of resources."

"Yes..."

With a slightly startled expression on his face, Zhang Guowei said loudly.

From the words of the Governor, Zhang Guowei felt the severity of the situation. It seemed that the shelter had few resources...

Li Meng added: "This is the first thing you have to do. The shelter's coal resources are running low. It can only support five days. After five days, the shelter will have no coal available. I plan to organize people to go to the coal terminal to transport coal tomorrow. Today, you must be prepared, organize the people, and prepare the sleds to transport coal..."

Speaking of this, Li Meng paused and asked: "How many sleds can transport coal in the shelter now? If all are deployed, how much coal can be pulled at a time?"

After thinking about it, Zhang Guowei replied: "If a hundred people are deployed, ten tons of coal should be no problem..."

Ten tons...

Ten tons is 10,000 kilograms. If a hundred people share it, each person will have 100 kilograms of coal. Of course, the number cannot be calculated in this way, because the coal is pulled by sleds, not people. Although the sleds are also pulled by people, it is better than carrying a hundred kilograms of things on the back. Ten tons is not a small amount, but it is not much either. It can barely support the shelter for more than ten days.

With a thoughtful look on his face, Li Meng said, "The more the better. Organize as many people as you can, build as many sleds as you can, and modify the sleds to increase the load capacity. Tomorrow's transportation operation, all men under the age of 50 who can move must participate, and women are not forced. Also, spread the word that anyone who participates in this transportation operation will have their coal allocation increased by 30%, regardless of gender..."

Zhu Wei and Zhang Guowei looked at each other in surprise at Li Meng's words...

With a wry smile on his face, Zhang Guowei said, "Governor, there is no problem in organizing manpower. The shelter is no longer a hunting team system. Everyone must contribute to all We should do our best to ensure the survival of people, but there is one thing we have to consider. It is very dangerous outside. Not to mention the extremely cold temperature, once we are targeted by strange beasts..."

In response to Zhang Guowei's words, Li Meng leaned back and said calmly: "I know what you are worried about. The army will lead the way tomorrow, and the transport team will follow behind. You just need to be careful enough and don't make too much noise. The army will bear all the risks."

Hearing this, Zhang Guowei was relieved. He nodded and said; "There will be no problem in this case..."

Raising his hand and waving, Li Meng said: "Go, you still have half a day to prepare..."

Then, Zhu Wei left with Zhang Guowei, and Wang Yanmei also went with him.

When the three disappeared in the room and the door was closed, Li Meng's expression was calm. He sat behind the desk and fell into deep thought...

Outside, the biggest threat is cold, but this is only one of them. There is another threat "strange beasts".

Li Meng did not know much about strange beasts, and did not even find relevant information in the memory of the original owner of this body.

In the past, the hunting team would set traps near the shelter and strangle the strange beasts in order to obtain the medicine "Strange Stone".

Although it is called a hunting team, the main job of the hunting team is not to kill the strange beasts. Their responsibility is to protect the exploration team that transports supplies.

The original owner of this body was very afraid of death. Although he had worked as a laborer with the exploration team, he had always been near the shelter, in a relatively safe area. He had never seen the hunting team fighting with strange beasts, nor had he ever fought with strange beasts.

He only knew that it was a group of red guys, which was very dazzling and eye-catching in the snowfield...

"Click..."

Just then, the door was pushed open, and Qian Yuting, who was dressed in black office clothes, walked in.

Coming to the desk, Qian Yuting put the documents in her hand on the desk in front of Li Meng, and said: "Sir, this is the document sent by Zhu Wei. I have sorted it out. Please take a look..."

Li Meng picked up the documents on the desk and read them one by one.

This is a document for the population registration of the shelter. The names are densely packed, and the writing is fair. Each person has only some simple information. Qian Yuting summarized each page and calculated the population.

There are 769 people in the shelter, including 34 people over 50 years old, 658 people aged 15 to 50, and 77 children under 15 years old.

Among these 769 people, 47 are sick and are currently placed in the quarantine area. 27 are disabled and unable to work. There are 437 women and 332 men, with a total of 137 families...

Seeing this, Li Meng frowned slightly...

Throwing the document on the table, Li Meng's eyes flashed with confusion, and said: "Although there are more than 100 more women than men, there are also more than 300 men. Excluding children, the elderly, and the disabled, there should not be only 137 families. Nearly half of the men are unmarried, and there are more women. Are they all single? Also, there are only 77 children in 137 families. Don't these families want to raise children?"

At the end, Li Meng looked at Qian Yuting...
