"I'm sorry, captain, I was careless. But I had something urgent to see you, so I ignored it for the moment. Please don't mind."
"Urgent matter?" The middle-aged man raised his eyebrows and asked, "What's the urgent matter? Is there something wrong with the formation of the new army?"
"No! The formation of the new army went smoothly. I think these Hong brothers should give detailed reports to you, captain, every day, right?"
Lao Xu emphasized the word "detailed". Why he emphasized it was probably tacit to the middle-aged man.
"That's not about forming a new army. Do you have any other urgent matters?"
Lao Xu didn't know whether the middle-aged man really didn't know or was just pretending to be confused.
Is there anything else besides supplies that is the most pressing issue for this gymnasium right now?
At least in Lao Xu's eyes, even zombies cannot be compared with the urgent need for supplies.
Because whenever internal and external troubles come together, internal troubles are more serious.
"I came here just to ask the captain when the food supply for the survivors below can start."
"Why did you mention this matter? Didn't I already tell you that you don't have to worry about this matter? You only need to be responsible for your own affairs. I will arrange the rest freely." After hearing Lao Xu mentioning supplies again, the middle-aged man The person's face immediately became even uglier.
I have repeatedly stressed to Xu Renjie, telling him not to talk about material matters in front of him again.
But what about Lao Xu? Not taking it seriously at all.
I thought I had already explained it to him last time, but the latter knew better than to continue asking. I never thought that just one day later, he would bring up the old matter again.
Do you think middle-aged people can avoid getting angry about this kind of thing?
Lao Xu did not shrink back because of the middle-aged man's criticism.
He came here with a clear attitude this time and wanted to ask for an explanation.
At that moment, Lao Xu replied: "Of course I will keep in mind what the captain told me. My brothers and I are doing our best to do what you want me to do. I also know that the captain doesn't want to hear me mention material matters, but..."
"Don't say anything to me, but since you know clearly that I don't want to hear it, get out immediately!!" Raising his hand, the middle-aged man issued an eviction order.
Naturally, Lao Xu would not leave.
As if he didn't see the middle-aged man raising his finger, he refused to back down and said sternly: "Captain, you said that I don't have to deal with this matter. There is a special person in charge. I just want to ask who is the specific person in charge? I want to Ask him face to face what he is doing for so long? Does it take so long to count supplies? We have been doing recruitment work at the venue below for the past two days, and survivors keep asking us questions, asking why the venue has run out of food. The survivors are very emotional Excited. We, a group of people, have not intervened in material matters and have no idea how to answer others. But this kind of thing is not something that can be delayed. I also believe that with the captain's overall view, it is impossible to risk everything for a small amount of materials. Risk of survivors going berserk.”
"So I came here this time just to ask the captain who you arranged to be responsible for the distribution of supplies. I have to chat with this person to see if he has neglected his duties. Captain, please keep the stable life in the library. Leave it to me, I think I also have the responsibility to fulfill my responsibility in this matter!! If they really neglect their duties, then I will deal with them according to the rules! This kind of person and this kind of appearance must not be tolerated. "
"If not, and it's just inefficient, then I'll ask my people to do it. I don't believe that even a few days of material statistics and allocation can't be done!!"
Lao Xu is very strong.
He didn't mince words, his meaning was very clear. You middle-aged man always said that things were arranged and someone was appointed to take charge.
What about the results?
So many days have passed, and the survivors below are still exhausted.
Is this what you call an arrangement?
Of course, although Lao Xu is strong, he still considers the middle-aged man's face issue.
He did not point out that it was the middle-aged man who was at fault. He focused entirely on the middle-aged man's designated person in charge.
Lao Xu also left a way out for this conversation.
Compared with questioning middle-aged people head-on, it is obviously easier to solve problems by asking others.
As long as the middle-aged man thinks clearly about the relationship between materials and the seriousness of the incident, then he can at least not worry about saving face.
The worst case scenario would be to use the subordinates of the assigned audit management team as a shield.
However, no matter how embarrassed Lao Xu was, he now came in and asked questions aggressively, which was still difficult for a middle-aged man to accept.
The middle-aged man's complexion instantly turned ugly.
Lao Xu saw this, and he didn't want to waste too much time fighting endlessly with the middle-aged man.
He immediately spoke again: "The captain may feel uncomfortable hearing what I said, but captain, I am worried about you from the bottom of my heart. Once the survivors below become powerful, there is no way for our men to resist them if they are hundreds of people." .Captain, I think you don’t want the fourth floor to be breached by survivors. When the people attack us, we can’t just take out some of the supplies.”
To put it bluntly, Lao Xu was also worried about the middle-aged man.
As Lao Xu said, if the middle-aged people are more generous now and stop the people's mouths with those grains, then big problems can be reduced to trivial matters.
Even if you distribute supplies once every one or two days, no matter how small it is, it still means something.
In this way, Xu Renjie can have an explanation with the people below and do comfort work.
After all, no matter what, it’s true that you don’t have much material reserves.
Lao Xu personally knows that it is impossible to supply every day like in the past.
The materials in the museum really can't do this.
But if you, a middle-aged man, don’t distribute at all, it would be unjustifiable.
If you don’t give the people a way to survive, the people will naturally not give you a way to survive.
When the killer comes, the dead will be certain.
Lao Xu also doesn't want to see people occupying the most critical supplies.
Needless to say, after the hungry people saw the supplies in the house, you can imagine what kind of chaotic scenes there would be.
At that time, not to mention the zombie attack, the people in the museum themselves were afraid that they would kill each other and become a mess.
These principles can be clearly understood and planned by a middle-aged person's IQ.
But sometimes people are easily blinded by related interests.
They know that there are risks in doing so, but they still prefer to choose vested interests.
For a middle-aged man, keeping the supplies he currently has is his most practical interest.
With this batch of supplies, his food and drink are guaranteed.
Only then can he feed and control the inspection and management team members below to work for him.
He believes that only in this way can he actually control the gym and ensure that his position as the leader is not lost.
However, this is not the case. What Lao Xu said now is to hope that the middle-aged man will open his eyes and see clearly the actual crisis that he should have seen clearly but was deliberately ignored by him.
The middle-aged man was expressionless after listening to Lao Xu's words. He paused for a few seconds and said something indifferently...
