The Pregnant Mommy Survive on Unlimited Supplies
Chapter 177 - 175 Garrison’s occupational restrictions

Chapter 177: 175 Garrison’s occupational restrictions

Hua Mi looked at the elder in front of her, smiled, and stepped aside to let the medical Garrison push out a cart piled high with straw matting.

Then, Hua Mi said to the medical Garrison,

"You all go about your business, I’ll find someone else to help with the menial tasks."

The Garrison of B City’s supply depot consisted of fewer than 100 people, and among them only 4 were medical Garrison.

Yes, that’s right, Gong Yi had also appointed Hua Mi as the team leader of the medical Garrison, commanding a team of 4.

But in reality, these 4 people had to take care of the wounded members of the Garrison who came from A City, and also manage the food supply of the Garrison at B City’s depot.

Among other miscellaneous tasks.

So, they were simply too busy, and when Hua Mi wanted someone to help push a cart, she could only look to the medical Garrison.

Due to the limited manpower, Tang You, who was leading around ninety-something members of the Garrison, had been surviving on a diet of oranges and instant noodles.

These instant noodles had been stockpiled by Hua Mi who, at that time, thought that as long as she secured the bare minimum for survival, it was good to have anything to eat in such dire situations.

Most survivors couldn’t even get their hands on instant noodles.

But as her "golden finger" grew stronger and she could produce more and more items,

to be honest, instant noodles started to look pretty unsatisfactory.

Therefore, Hua Mi placed all the instant noodles from her level 17 storage into the B City supply depot, preparing for Chi Chuan to take them out and sell.

As a result, Tang You and his team, in an effort to save time, had been dry-eating instant noodles for a while.

These Garrison members were treating their stomachs too harshly.

Thus, when the second elder, leading his own child, stood in front of Hua Mi, she didn’t ask him to weave straw matting any longer but instead inquired,

"Do you know how to cook?"

This was actually a redundant question. Are there any elders who don’t know how to cook?

Apart from lacking physical strength, it seemed that elders could do everything.

After seeing the elder nod, Hua Mi then turned around and headed back into the supply depot.

Before long, she pushed out a cart full of rice and vegetables,

"I’ll find a few more elders later, and together you can help cook a meal for our Garrison."

"Of course, you can eat with the Garrison. Whatever the Garrison eats, those who help out will eat the same."

To have rice, vegetables, orange juice, and only need to offer one’s labor to eat these for free—what more could one ask for?

Across from them, more and more elders from the group of 2000 survivors stepped forward.

Some young people whispered among themselves and softened their expressions, giving signals to their elders, meaning to have their elders bring their children and go to Hua Mi’s place to receive supplies.

For them, contributing a bit of labor was like getting supplies for free.

Most of their cash had been ruthlessly taken by a group of men who had persuaded them to come here.

So, they had no money on them.

That was a major reason why they obediently came here, to force the Garrison to hand over the supplies of the B City depot.

Having had their cash stolen, they couldn’t even afford to buy supplies at the stalls on Xiang B Highway.

So they might as well take a risk.

But now, without paying cash, just by helping to cook and look after children, they could have something to eat—so why shed blood and fight to the death with the Garrison?

More and more elderly people, leading children by the hand, walked toward Hua Mi.

Gradually, they formed a line in front of Hua Mi.

The agitators mingled among the crowd grew impatient.

They constantly persuaded those who wanted to leave,

"She must be deceiving you, now she lures you with a bit of food, but once our group disperses, she will starve you to death."

"Don’t go over there, if we take down this Xiang B city supply depot, all the supplies inside will be ours, enough to last us a very long time."

"Don’t be foolish, what’s more worthwhile? The bit of food you have now or the endless supply after we take over the depot?"

"You all saw it, the Garrison kills without batting an eye, they can easily kill our people without flinching, and one day they could kill you too."

That’s what they said, but these agitators only dared to whisper such words while hiding within the survivor’s group.

Nobody dared to stick their neck out now for fear of being shot dead by a bullet from the Garrison.

They had a firm grasp on the Garrison’s rules; as long as they didn’t instigate harm to the weak and mingled in the crowd to stir up the civilians, the Garrison was helpless against them.

Hua Mi had already recruited 10 grandmothers to cook and another 20 grandfathers to pick up garbage, with 30 children helping to move supplies.

Children who couldn’t carry supplies took care of even younger children who couldn’t walk...

After all, everyone had to work, including the children.

Actually, the children couldn’t carry much supplies at once.

But there were many children, and they were quick, transporting supplies little by little from the depot. Just like ants moving a nest, they didn’t have to exert much effort.

When more elderly people arrived, Hua Mi found two to start registering names and distributing supplies.

As long as the elderly came to queue up and didn’t cause trouble, Hua Mi would give them supplies and arrange work for them.

Then, for those who came later, Hua Mi sent the elderly to the nearby mountains to look for things they could use to set up stalls.

Successfully dividing a large number of the elderly and children from the group of survivors, Hua Mi walked over to Tang You and asked, frowning,

"Have all the agitators been found?"

Tang You frowned, standing at the entrance of the Xiang B city supply depot, under the darkening sky, with still a large crowd barricading the front,

"We’ve identified all of them, and if they dare to make a move, our snipers will open fire."

Indeed, as the other party said, as long as they didn’t instigate harm to the weak and stayed in the crowd, the Garrison wouldn’t actively shoot them.

Hearing Tang You say this, Hua Mi couldn’t help but frown; the Garrison’s occupational limitations were indeed quite troublesome at times.

They would not strike preemptively; knowing the other party was a villain, they still had to wait for them to act first before the Garrison could react defensively.

Hua Mi’s eyes shifted, and she immediately thought of a good idea, telling Tang You:

"I don’t think they’ll cause any trouble for a while, I’m going to take a walk nearby."

Without waiting for Tang You to speak and stop her, Hua Mi turned and left.

She wore a raincoat and carried an umbrella, walking outside the depot to greet the elderly who were cooking under the shelter.

Then, she walked alone outside the shelter, planning to walk along the national road, passing by the group of survivors barricading the outside of the depot.

Her every move had been watched by many from the start.

After all, when they came to the outside of this Xiang B city supply depot, trying to force the Garrison to hand it over, Hua Mi stood on the side of the Garrison.

She must be an important figure within the Garrison; the leader of the Garrison seemed to be very respectful toward Hua Mi.
