As the predicted collision date is getting closer, all members of the Phoenix King Territory are mobilized to enter the disaster prevention preparation stage.
The tasks at this stage are very heavy. In addition to the municipal and urban management departments of each town, citizens also need to select representatives and volunteers to coordinate.
As one of the few wealthy people in the Qingyan tribe, the Manu brothers were also elected to help the people of Xincheng with their evacuation management.
By the way, they have changed their household registration from Red Rock City to New City.
This change is difficult because almost all of the new cities are victims of slavery in the original Red Rock City, and they are easier to bully.
But the Manu brothers are not ordinary people. As the first outsiders to do business in Phoenix City, they have maintained a very good law-abiding record. As for Manu's brother being hanged for a day for bribing warehouse guards, the merchant registration system had not been established at that time. Got passed.
In addition, they sent Pang Xuncheng's younger brothers and sisters to Xincheng to study, and they were not unrelated. They often went to the Liangdou City Hall to inquire, and they were specially approved to transfer to Xincheng household registration.
Household registration is actually of no use, it's just a different place to pay taxes, but at the moment, household registration determines where to listen.
Brother Manu was tasked with coordinating and managing a community of five hundred people.
They counted the number of people of each age group, confirmed the area allocated to the community in the evacuation area, and took everyone on an evacuation route. If someone had difficulty moving and lacked supplies, they had to go to the municipal government for coordination.
Although the things were many and tedious, the two Manu brothers enjoyed it because since they were young, this was the first time they felt that the lives of the farts were valued.
On this day, a countdown sign was posted in front of the municipal government building. There were still ten days until the evacuation day.
In fact, no notice is needed, and everyone knows what they are avoiding, because the luminous objects that can be seen in the sky are getting bigger and bigger every night.
Brother Manu learned the news through people in the community, went to the municipal staff at the work site to inquire, and got a reply.
"In order to avoid loss of lives due to chaos during the evacuation, communities are allowed to move to designated evacuation sites on their own from now on. Food during this period will be distributed to the stations by the Logistics Department of the Railway Bureau. Coordinators of each community are asked to organize their own manpower to collect the food. "
Brother Manu asked: "What if the house of the person who left first was robbed?"
"Try to take valuable items to the refuge in batches."
Officials can't just say that they don't have enough manpower and can't control some petty thieves.
The two Manu brothers came from poor backgrounds and understood. After consultation, they went back to organize the relocation of the community.
Everyone in New Town has very few assets, including houses, furniture, Obsidian Bank cards, and basically no antique collections. It doesn’t hurt if pottery pots and porcelain plates are stolen, and you can just buy them again.
The main reason is that the temperature in New City is higher than that of Red Rock City and Phoenix City. There are no bedding at all and the clothes are relatively light. It is not too troublesome to carry a backpack.
There are about 500 people under the supervision of the two brothers. Some households have more things and need to move extra, and there are more than a dozen households that want to move their furniture as well.
Brother Manu is in a bit of a dilemma.
"Why move the furniture here? Let them pay for it and hire people to move it."
"Furniture is also useful. First ask them if they are willing to share it. If they can share it, they will pay for it from the collective fee."
The collective fee is set up to facilitate the coordinator's management of the community. Part of it is raised by the community, and most of it is a fixed amount of 50 yuan per person distributed by the municipal government through the bank based on the number of people in the community.
The fund-raising part fluctuates greatly. For example, the Manu brothers thought it was interesting, so they donated 300 yuan on behalf of their family, while others donated a few yuan and more than ten yuan.
In total, the Manu brothers have a total collective fee of 28,000 yuan.
The main purpose of this money is to purchase food at the shelter for later payment. In addition, the coordinators and assistants can receive wages and pay for some temporary work. All expenditures must be detailed and stamped by the municipal staff. Take the money off the card afterwards.
The two asked their assistants to ask each household, and most of them were willing to let the furniture be shared. Those who really didn't want to can't take care of it and had to find a way on their own.
As a result, those households actually started to quarrel.
The brothers were very troubled. Fortunately, most people supported their work, and the families who caused trouble did not dare to use force.
What a delay!
If you pay to help them move, what do others think if they are willing to let the furniture be shared?
Brother Manu suddenly realized what the big guys had to deal with every day.
In the end, no money was given, and the families who caused the trouble did not contribute any money. Instead, they found a few kind-hearted people to help move a small amount of furniture for free.
It took several days to arrange all 500 people into a tunnel shelter more than ten kilometers away from the new city.
In addition to the residents of the new city who have moved in one after another, there are also many staff in the shelter with a variety of positions.
Most of them have nothing to do with the Manu brothers. They mainly have to contact three types of staff.
One is the health worker. If there is a need to remove human waste in the community, it needs to be handled through the health worker, and the money will be transferred from the collective fee bank card when the matter is over. Or you can organize people in the community to do it yourself, and you can get money.
There are people in the community managed by Brother Manu who are willing to do the work, but there are not enough people. After consultation, they are directly transferred to the health workers and come back during the break.
The second type is road planners, who mainly ensure smooth paths between communities and cannot affect railway safety.
Some people are ignorant and always like to occupy more land, occupying it right next to the railway, so road planners often quarrel with others. Usually the various communities give in because if they can't win the argument, they will call the city defense army.
The territory of each community has been marked out, and the road has been reserved, even if it is on the side of the railway. As long as the community they lead does not occupy the road, the Manu brothers do not need to take the initiative to find them.
The third type is the security personnel, and you have to coordinate with them to light a fire, because the air in the tunnel is not good, and if there are too many people lighting a fire at the same time, accidents can easily happen.
Romance
They themselves don't know exactly why accidents happen easily. Anyway, the fire-making needs of all communities are managed by them.
There are still many things that need to be done by the community themselves, such as fetching water two kilometers outside the tunnel, maintaining order within the community, etc.
Everyone is busy doing their own thing, and there seems to be no chaos at all, which is very magical.
Brother Manu noticed that there was a special group in the tunnel.
This group of people stare at the rock walls and ceiling of the tunnel every day. From time to time, rough wood will be brought in from outside and erected somewhere. There seems to be a mage inside who is responsible for casting spells.
With four days left until the last moment of the countdown, a city defense force arrived, with about five hundred people. As soon as they arrived, they began to build fortifications at both ends of the tunnel.
When the tunnel was widened, many stones were deliberately piled at both ends of the tunnel to form two hills. This group of city defense troops mainly adjusted the stones to make the entire structure more stable and pile them higher.
On the last day, everyone who was supposed to be in the tunnel showed up.
Perhaps due to fear of the unknown, the crowd became quieter. Except for the city defense troops who were also rushing to build fortifications on the temporarily suspended railway, most people were sitting on the ground holding food, waiting for disaster to strike.
The Manu brothers also held each other's hands, their hearts pounding.
This stiff atmosphere did not last long. After dark, perhaps because they felt that others could not see them, someone began to whisper. The tunnel would amplify the sound, and the buzz soon expanded into a noisy conversation.
Two hours passed in the bustle, and suddenly both ends of the tunnel lit up.
"Its daybreak?"
"No one is allowed to leave the tunnel, wait for instructions!" City management officials yelled at both ends.
