The boss of the apocalypse travels back to the 1970s with space
Chapter 641 Strange
Xia Meng took her own plate and handed it to the chef who was serving the food. The chef was a woman in her fifties. When she saw that it was Xia Meng, she immediately smiled.
"Hey, Governor Xia, please come and have dinner!"
Xia Meng smiled and nodded, "Yes!"
The old lady picked up the spoon, looked at the meat in the basin and scooped it for Xia Meng. Xia Meng hurriedly said,
"Auntie, Auntie, no, no..., I don't really like eating meat!"
There are so many delicious foods in Xia Meng's space. She often cooks for herself. There is not much meat in the pot. If all the meat is put into her bowl, what will others eat?
The auntie serving the meal smiled and said,
"Governor Xia, don't be embarrassed. You are so busy with work, but you still eat the same meals as us. We all admire you. It's so cold, you should eat more meat to increase your immunity!"
"I really don't like eating meat," Xia Meng said firmly and confidently.
The aunt who served the food didn't insist.
The person standing behind Xia Meng advised her, "Governor Xia, you work so hard, you must eat well."
"Yes, don't be embarrassed, we all have no objection to you eating meat!"
"If it weren't for you, we would have starved to death long ago."
"Yes! Yes!"
Xia Meng was grateful for everyone's concern for her. "I, Xia Meng, will always remember everyone's kindness to me, but this is not just my own credit. Everyone is really too polite."
"Okay, everyone, now that you're full, I'll go eat first," Xia Meng greeted everyone, then took her plate and found a secluded spot to sit down and eat.
After Ruan Feng finished his meal, he sat next to Xia Meng, looked at the potatoes in Xia Meng's bowl, hesitated, picked up the meat in his own bowl,
"Um...Governor, how about giving you this meat to eat?"
When the auntie serving the food saw that Xia Meng refused to take the meat, she gave the meat to Ruan Feng.
The meat was already in the bowl, and Ruan Feng couldn't refuse.
Xia Meng glanced at Ruan Feng and said with a smile, "Here you go, eat it!"
Ruan Feng said embarrassedly, "Governor, I remember you like eating meat very much."
Xia Meng nodded, "Yes, but you also saw that there was only a little meat in the dish. If you gave it all to me, how could I eat it all!"
"It's so cold, and although everyone can eat enough, the food is not very filling, and everyone gets hungry quickly. Alas... it's not easy!"
Ruan Feng nodded and was about to put the meat on Xia Meng's plate, but Xia Meng quickly stopped him.
"Okay, okay, here you go, just eat it, no need to give it to me!"
Ruan Feng, "Several pieces of meat!"
Xia Meng insisted on not wanting it, so Ruan Feng had to give up.
After dinner, the two returned to the tent to continue working.
It was not until five o'clock in the afternoon that a community worker suddenly found Xia Meng.
Xia Meng asked the community staff to sit down and poured them a cup of hot water.
"It's cold, drink some hot water first."
The two staff members quickly stood up and thanked Xia Meng.
Xia Meng put down the kettle and asked,
"What's wrong? Do you have anything to do with me?"
The two staff members looked at each other and nodded in unison.
"Governor Xia, this matter is not your business, but..."
Xia Meng, "Don't be afraid, just tell me if you have something to say!"
Now Tangzhou can still maintain basic operations, all thanks to Xia Meng's support. Xia Meng has to take care of everything.
The two staff members then spoke up.
"During this period, many people came to us to report the situation. Some of them were deceived, and some of their children were deceived. After their children left with those people, they could no longer contact them."
"What do you mean?" Xia Meng frowned, "Is it a scam?"
The two staff members nodded, "We think so!"
Xia Meng, "Who are the people who have been defrauded?"
The staff, “are mostly elderly people and young people eager to find work.”
"Some elderly people are very pitiful. They are the only ones alive in their family. Although they have some things in their hands, they are not much. Those are their life-saving things, and they were all taken away by the scammers."
Another person also spoke up, "You know, it's not easy to find a job now. Many young people can't find any jobs. Those scammers take advantage of young people's eagerness to find a job to support their families and lie to them that there are factories in Gaoshan Prefecture recruiting workers. The salary can't be said to be very high, but it's not low either. It's 6,000 a month with food and accommodation."
Six thousand a month with food and lodging included is indeed not a low salary, especially at a time like this.
"Gaoshanzhou?" Xia Meng asked, "After the earthquake in Gaoshanzhou, wasn't the damage very serious?"
The two staff members nodded, "Yes! It's much more serious than our Tangzhou, but wasn't Gaoshanzhou economically developed in the past, with many factories? Although some people don't believe it, there are indeed many people who have been deceived."
Xia Meng nodded slightly. Many people are pressured by life. Even if they have doubts in their hearts, they will unwillingly want to give it a try.
This test revealed a problem.
Xia Meng, "Have you called the police?"
The two staff members nodded and said, "We have called the police and they are also investigating."
Xia Meng nodded, "Just keep investigating."
Staff, "But recently there are still a steady stream of people reporting that someone in their family has been deceived, or that their children are missing."
Xia Meng, "How about this, I'll call a meeting, let's summarize the tricks of these scammers, and then increase the publicity efforts to the people."
"At the same time, I will urge the police to speed up their investigation."
Staff: "Okay, okay, thank you Governor Xia."
Xia Meng, "This is what I should do."
That evening, Xia Meng called a meeting to work out regulations, and the next day began to intensify publicity on fraud.
On the third day, Xia Meng planned to visit the disaster relief center, but she didn't expect to encounter a blizzard on the way back, and the car had difficulty moving forward in the blizzard.
Zhang Xiangqian didn't dare drive the car fast and could only drive slowly, but the wind and snow were so strong that in just a few moments, a thick layer of snow fell on the car.
"Governor," Ruan Feng looked at Xia Meng, "The snow is a bit strong. I know there is a small safe area nearby. Why don't we go there to take shelter first?"
Xia Meng looked at the cotton-like snow outside the window and nodded, "Okay!"
So, Ruan Feng directed the way and Zhang Xiangqian drove, and the car stopped at the gate of a safe zone half an hour later.
This safe zone is not big, so it is surrounded by barbed wire to ensure everyone's safety.
There was a security guard on duty in the security booth at the entrance of the security zone. He heard the sound of a car, opened the window, squinted his eyes and looked out. He saw an unfamiliar license plate number and immediately shouted,
"Who are you?"
Ruan Feng immediately ran out of the car and went to explain to the security guard.
I heard that they wanted to go back to the city, but the snow was too strong, so they came here to avoid the snow, but the security guard did not agree.
"No! No! You should go somewhere else. We don't accept outsiders here."
Ruan Feng was very surprised, but soon she suppressed her shock and said with a pleading tone,
"Brother, we are all from Tangzhou. Look at the heavy snow and wind. We can't drive forward. It's too unsafe."
"Can we just hide here for a while and leave when the snow stops?"
"Of course not!" The security guard was a man in his thirties. Hearing this, he refused Ruan Feng without giving him any face. He even said in a very tough tone,
"I'm warning you, leave now, or we'll chase you away!"
Ruan Feng had no choice but to turn around and tell Xia Meng about the security guard's reaction.
This made Xia Meng feel very strange.
The reason why Xia Meng was unwilling to reveal her identity was that she was afraid that the people below would give her a grand reception. She just wanted to avoid the wind and snow and did not want to alarm the management staff.
But after hearing Ruan Feng's words, Xia Meng felt that things were not that simple.
We are all from Tangzhou. When encountering such a thing, the normal reaction should be to agree to let them in. Why would we drive them away?
Ruan Feng looked at Xia Meng who was in deep thought, "Governor, what should we do now? Should we leave?"
Xia Meng told Ruan Feng, "Go and tell them that we are official staff of the city, but don't tell them our specific positions. Just ask them to open the door."
Ruan Feng nodded, "Okay!"
Ruan Feng got out of the car again to find the security guard.
It was too cold outside. The security guard saw Ruan Feng coming again and immediately scolded him in dissatisfaction.
"You don't understand what I'm saying, do you? What are you doing here again? Get out of here right now!"
Ruan Feng's face darkened, but he still tried to stay calm and walked forward!
