Natural Disaster: I Started By Hoarding Tens Of Billions Of Supplies - Chapter 97

Chapter 97: Do Whatever You Want
Yao Ran shrugged and added, “After all, if they dare to fight us, they will die. However, they still have a chance to gain some benefits against Lu Hong. A wise person knows which choice to make in this situation.”

Huang Zhihui was deeply impressed by Yao Ran’s tactic of killing three birds with one stone.

After dealing with those people and causing trouble for the middle-aged woman and Lu Hong, Yao Ran and Huang Zhihui went back to the apartment to have dinner.

At the same time, the man led five men to look for Lu Hong. They went down to the 13th floor and impatiently knocked on the door of 1307.

Soon, Lu Hong opened the door and saw six thin and dirty men standing in front of his door. Their faces were dirty, with sunken cheeks and impatient expressions.

Lu Hong frowned when he smelled the sour smell emanating from their bodies. Although he despised them, Lu Hong still asked them politely.

“Do you need anything?”

The leading man was satisfied when he saw Lu Hong being polite to them. He couldn’t slap the smiling person, so he calmed down and said, “I heard that you are the building manager elected by the residents.”

When the man saw Lu Hong nodding, he wanted to say that Yao Ran had told him about Lu Hong, but he hesitated. There would be no good outcome for anyone who went against the people who lived on the 20th floor, so he better not mention that female devil for now.

He made his decision and said, “When we came back, others had already occupied our houses while some of us couldn’t go back because the house was flooded. We asked other residents for help, but no one wanted to help us. Since you are the building manager, you have to help us solve this problem.”

Lu Hong was stunned when he heard the man asking him to help them arrange accommodation. He cursed secretly in his heart but showed a helpless smile.

“Comrade, I also want to help you, but I can’t do anything. In our current situation, no one will listen to me.”

The man was not satisfied with his answer and said, “Then what should we do? We have been living in this place since it was built. There is no way we can ever leave and go to the rescue center ever again.”

Seeing the man’s gloomy expression, Lu Hong changed his strategy and asked, “What about you go and live on the 19th and 20th floors? No one lives in the corridor, and only a few people are living there.”

Hearing this, the leading man sneered, “Alright. Since you gave us this idea, then you should talk to the residents living on the 19th and 20th floors. This is your responsibility as the building manager.”

Lu Hong was angry, but there was nothing he could do except agree to the man’s request.

Since he agreed to serve as a building manager, he received no benefits, but he had to work hard for free and serve the residents of Building 3 every day. Because of this, his wife and parents are unhappy with him these days.

Lu Hong gritted his teeth and said, “Fine. I will try to talk to them. However, I cannot promise you that they will let you live in the corridors on the 19th and 20th floors. You should all know the temper of the person who lives on the 20th floor.”

After saying this, Lu Hong reluctantly followed the men to the 18th floor. He stood in front of the locked metal door blocking the stairs toward the 19th floor and knocked for a long time, but no one came.

He was a little annoyed, but he still held back his temper and politely said, “Miss Yao, can you open the door? I have something to discuss with you regarding the accommodation of the residents who are coming back today.”

Lu Hong waited for a few more minutes, but the residents of the 19th and 20th floors did not respond. Seeing that even Lu Hong could not control the residents of the 20th floor, the others were desperate.

They rushed to the metal door, kicking it while yelling and cursing.

“Open the door! Who are you to block the corridor?! That is a public place!”

“Come out!”

“I have lived here for many years! If I want to stay, who dares to drive me away? Open the door for me!”

Seeing that the situation had escalated out of control, Lu Hong knew that he had to leave, lest these idiots anger the living devils living on the 20th floor.

Looking at the leading man, he said quickly, “Everyone, please listen to me.”

He tried to talk to them, but they ignored him. Lu Hong was fed up with these ungrateful, idiotic people.

He looked at the leading man and said, “Since you guys won’t listen to me, then I can’t help you anymore. Do whatever you want.”

After leaving these words, Lu Hong hurriedly left and returned home.

When the leader saw Lu Hong really leaving without turning back, he knew they couldn’t rely on Lu Hong. He used to live on the fourth floor, but now he has nowhere to live.

Thinking that the temperature was getting colder, he gritted his teeth and said to the others, “Everyone, let’s just live in the corridor. If those people dare to drive us out, we must fight back. If we leave, we will die, so our only way to survive is to stay. We cannot wait for death, so we must fight for survival.”

After hearing this, a man who accompanied him to find Lu Hong said, “But we are starving and weaker than those people.”

Hearing this, the leader sneered. “We outnumber them. As long as we want to stay, who can drive us away?”

Listening to his words, the despair and anger in everyone’s eyes disappeared, replaced by hope and determination.

“That’s right. As long as we work together, who can drive us away?”
