A motorcade was driving slowly on the bumpy road in Amelia. People's confused and numb faces had lost their longing for life. They were like walking corpses, standing in line by the side of the road with a broken bowl or a cup or similar utensils that can hold things in their hands.
From a distance, these people have no vitality and no living breath. They feel uncomfortable like living dead people.
After such a long time of chaos, not only the gavra people in the imperial region, but also the local people were deeply affected.
Every time the rebels launch an attack on the gavra people, it is followed by the bloody retaliation of the gavra people. They will control the whole city. Anyone who is considered to be possible to be anti-government militants or who has relations with these people will be dragged out and shot or sent to the labor reform camp.
While people hate the gavra people, they are actually tormented by their own people. In this torment, many people collapse or become numb.
There was a woman on the roadside. She looked 30 or 40 years old. She was holding two children who were only wearing shorts and had long hair waist high. She couldn't tell whether a boy or a girl was. Her face was numb.
All three people are dirty. The clothes on women can't even be called clothes. It's more like a quilt with a hole in it, and then the head comes out through the hole.
Not long ago, an old man who looked 50 or 60 years old, not tall and dirty came over with an iron cup filled with food, such as wheat kernel porridge. He talked to the woman for a while. After the woman gave instructions to the two children, he walked with the man to an empty house on the side of the road.
A few minutes later, she and the man came out of it. The man poured some of the food in his cup into the woman's broken bowl, licked the wheat kernel pieces on the edge of the cup with satisfaction, and walked away step by step.
The two children looked at the broken bowl with eager eyes. The woman took a drink and gave birth to both children.
After a while, the second man came over.
This is not just an example. In fact, there are a lot of such people in ameriya. Men in many families have been shot. It is impossible for women to find jobs and raise children at the same time.
With the escalation of the conflict between local people and gavra people, gavra people only distributed relief food to those cooperating citizens. For example, if someone in their family joined the rebels or was shot for other reasons, they will lose the right to receive relief food forever.
These people have no job, no food and no source of livelihood. It is difficult for them to live in this city.
At first, they may be able to exchange some things for some food, but in the end, they can't take anything out and can only sell their dignity.
When the motorcade slowly passed here, the woman had received the third man. When she came out of the room, she was still wiping the residual gene fragments on her legs with her dirty clothes.
After watching the man pour some food into her bowl, she took a break, took two full children again, and was ready to go home.
At home, there are old people who need food.
Sometimes life is like this. A person's impulse can drag a family or even several families into the abyss.
Lynch's motorcade passed here at this time. People's numb eyes turned slowly. So did the woman and her two children. They looked calm as if they were not in pain!
They looked at the car, at the well-dressed gentlemen in the car, watching them enjoy life so much, and they were also bathed in the same sunshine, but they were like living in hell.
"Did you see it?"
"These people!"
Lynch asked Mark, who swallowed a mouthful of saliva.
Living in the Union for too long, the so-called spirit of freedom and equality has long been deeply engraved in his bone marrow.
Even in nagariel, he has never been so shocked as now. The expressions, eyes and actions of those people are full of despair.
He shivered, a shudder from the depths of his soul. "Yes, I see, Mr. Lynch."
His attitude became very correct, and these pictures disturbed him.
Lynch's eyes also came back from the outside, "this time I let you come, that is, we invest in a food factory together."
"Now there is a shortage of everything here, and it is summer. There is only one phase of wheat left this year. There is still a period of time from sowing to harvest. Tens of millions of people need food. We don't need to swallow the whole market. We only need one or two cities to make a lot of money."
"You've worked in a food factory. You have experience. I'm more relieved if you do it.", he looked at mark with snow-white teeth. "And we're friends!"
Mark was a little flattered and timid. He smiled and catered to Lynch, and then said carefully, "Mr. Lynch, I used to... You know, when my uncle was in office, the finance would subsidize the food factory, but the food factory wouldn't make much money without the local finance."
He said, looking at the long line outside, "these people don't seem to need to spend money to get relief food. I don't know if they have money, but they can't afford to spend too much money to buy food, which also means that we are likely to lose money."
After he finished, he fell into silence. The cost of food is very transparent in some ways. 100 grams of refined wheat flour is 100 grams, and 50 grams of barley malt is 50 grams. How much these things are worth is transparent.
In addition, it seems that the raw materials for food production have to be transported from China, plus freight, even if they don't make money to sell, they may not be able to sell.
Lynch was not surprised to hear what he said. Many people will list all the problems they can imagine before doing a business, and then tell themselves that it won't work.
This kind of people is not a minority. Many people are like this. They always shrink back when facing various opportunities and can always find reasons not to reach out and seize opportunities.
In fact, it's not how smart they are. People who have to give up in the face of opportunities are not smart people at all. They are just afraid and afraid, because they have never stretched out their hands. Naturally, they are full of instinctive fear of everything strange.
Mark didn't do business outside the policy, so he mistakenly thought his experience was the right experience and tried to convince Lynch.
Lynch just smiled. He looked at mark with warm eyes, but it made mark a little uneasy.
"We are businessmen. Do you know how people evaluate businessmen?" Lynch continued before Mark said anything. "People will impose words such as treachery, meanness, stinginess and greed on businessmen, even if the businessman is not like this, but they believe in their own judgment and think that businessmen should be like this."
"So we can let go a little!"
Lynch paused and asked, "do you know why people are hungry?"
A little jumping thought made mark's mind unable to keep up with his speed. After waiting for a few seconds, he asked tentatively, "because haven't eaten for a while?"
Lynch smiled and shook his head, "because there is nothing in the stomach, the body tells the brain, and the brain tells us that we are hungry."
"So as long as there is something in the stomach, people will not be so hungry. Nutrition is another matter."
"Then do you know what can stay longer in the stomach?"
Mark shook his head blankly. Except for despair and silence, his stupid appearance was not much different from the people in line outside.
"Crude fiber food, those things that are not easy to digest, will stay in the stomach for a long time, so that the body will not tell people that it is hungry so quickly."
"Later, you open the factory first. Our main product is a kind of biscuit. Here is a formula..." Lynch took out a list of ingredients from his pocket and handed it over. "Just produce according to this list."
Mark looked at it for a while, his mouth opened wider and wider, and finally he stared at the dog and couldn't even speak.
After a while, he asked uncertainly, "Mr. Lynch... Are you... Sure it's this recipe?"
Lynch nodded. "Do you have any questions about it?"
"A little..." he scratched his head and showed the formula in front of Lynch, "this... Non-toxic wild grass, I'm not sure what it is, and these, red tree powder..."
"Ah! That's what you said." Lynch took the recipe from him and folded it a little. The ingredients list was divided into two. "You should think so."
At this time, there are only half of the ingredients on the table. There are eggs, milk, pork powder, beef powder, fish powder and various powders of highly nutritious food.
But if you turn this recipe list over, there is only a part of all kinds of plants that can be seen everywhere in the wild.
"After providing nutrition that can meet people's daily needs, what we need most is to prevent them from starving quickly. These things will not cause any harm to people. Their only value is to stay in people's stomach for a longer time."
"It's not easy to be hungry and have enough nutrition. You don't think... I'm a treacherous and despicable capitalist?" Lynch smiled and sent the formula back to mark's hand.
Mark looked at the recipe and didn't dare to lift his head. He wanted to say "you are", but his instinct told him that he had better not tell the truth.
Lynch patted him on the shoulder. "That's why Langdon asked you to come out more. Mark, you're too young and the environment you used to live in is too good. You don't know what the world needs and what the people at the bottom need."
"As long as there is barely enough nutrition for the minimum body and it is not easy to be hungry, they are willing to eat even if I add a handful of mud to it."
"You haven't been hungry. You never know the fear of starvation!"
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
