Reborn Before the Apocalypse: My Backing is the Nation

Chapter 150 People's War
Lin Xing pulled General Manager Zhu out of the administration building.

"Come and see! To thank our brother factory for their support, we specially arranged for the entire culinary team from Honghe Restaurant to ensure that our workers are well-fed!"

"Don't worry about logistics, Lao Zhu. Everyone in our association knows how generous and open I, Lin Xing, am. You've come to support me; do you think I'd let you eat instant noodles?"

Before me, a huge steamer was already open, and basins of marinated ribs were placed inside. The switch was turned on, and white steam mixed with a rich meaty aroma would rise from time to time, lingering in the air.

On the cutting board, a dozen kitchen helpers wielded their knives with lightning speed, turning irregularly shaped potatoes and greens into uniformly long, short, and sized shreds, chunks, or segments in the next moment.

The stoves have now been set up.

One after another, the stoves, like planetary engines, spewed flames fiercely, and flames occasionally shot out from the woks on them. In the hands of the master chefs, the huge woks and the ingredients weighing at least ten or dozens of kilograms in them were juggled like acrobats, constantly being juggled. The ingredients would jump several tens of centimeters high from time to time, and then fall accurately back into the woks without missing a single one.

Looking at the bustling open-air kitchen, General Manager Zhu's already gloomy face grew even gloomier.

Damn it, I miscalculated!
With a snort, President Zhu turned and left. Behind him, Lin Xing couldn't help but smirk.

However, this incident did serve as a reminder to him.

We still need to pay attention to logistical support; we can't afford to make the same mistake again.

"Manager Sun, do we have enough bottled water, cigarettes, milk, coffee, bread, and other supplies in our factory?"

“It’s not enough. I’m planning to go out and do some emergency shopping. Now that the big supermarkets are closed, I can only look for small supermarkets that are open 24 hours. If one isn’t enough, I’ll go to several more.”

"Okay, go quickly, I'll have the finance person go with you."

"it is good."

Sun Xiaoxue agreed and hailed a truck, intending to leave. But before she even left the factory area, she saw another truck parked at the gate.

"Who is in charge?"

Lin Xing walked over quickly: "That's me. May I ask who you are...?"

"Oh, we're from Aijia Supermarket. We heard that your factory was requisitioned by the Doomsday Command Center to undertake an emergency production task, so we thought we'd send over a batch of supplies, like bottled water, coffee, Red Bull, and small bread rolls. We don't know if you'll need them, but it's better to be prepared."

"Thank you very much."

Lin Xing quickly replied, "But it's not necessary. Our factory has already arranged for the finance and logistics managers to go out and make purchases."

"Hey, what a coincidence! Brothers, let's unload!"

The supermarket manager in charge gave a shout and directed the truck to drive into the factory area. As soon as the doors opened, boxes of mineral water, sausages, instant noodles, coffee, Red Bull, and other supplies were unloaded in a continuous stream.

"This, how can this be so embarrassing..."

"It's alright, we can't help with anything else, but we're counting on the workers to help us fight the aliens. We can't let the workers go to the battlefield hungry, can we?"

We were short on time today, so we only arranged for one truckload of goods to come over. We'll get ready as soon as we get back, and a second truck will be coming soon.

"Brothers, let's go, let's not cause trouble for the workers!"

The truck sped away from the factory again.

Lin Xing and Sun Xiaoxue stood behind, watching the truck disappear into the night, feeling a strange emotion filling their chests.

Rubbing his slightly sore face, Lin Xing looked at Sun Xiaoxue: "Have you finished cleaning up the dorms? Is it enough?"

Sun Xiaoxue whispered, "The dormitory only has 100 beds now. It used to be used only for employees to rest temporarily and stay overnight when working overtime..."

I'm already directing people to urgently prepare the rest areas, but time is too tight, and I'm afraid the conditions won't be guaranteed..." Normally, most employees go home to live. But some live far away, some live nearby, and with the whole factory working on this, there's clearly no time for everyone to go home one by one. Not to mention that hundreds of brothers from other factories have come to help, so we have to make sure they have a place to stay.

Lin Xing waved his hand and said, "Quickly contact nearby hotels and book as many as you can. Don't worry about the money."

Sun Xiaoxue whispered, "I've already contacted them, and the few nearby places are almost full. With the doomsday plan underway, there's been a lot of movement of people lately..."

Lin Xing's brows furrowed slowly. After a moment's thought, he said, "First, tidy up the dormitory. Then..."

Give up the management lounge; if that's not enough, put up some wooden planks, make some bedding and make it a makeshift bed, or make some folding beds or something. There has to be a place for people to rest.

"And you can also give up my office; it has air conditioning, so it'll be more comfortable to rest there."

"Yes, I'll make arrangements right away."

Just then, some more vehicles gathered at the factory gate.

This time it wasn't a truck, but a car.

This is……

Lin Xing approached with some confusion and saw a group of people getting out of the car and gathering around.

The group consisted of people of all ages and genders, all dressed in casual clothes, just like ordinary pedestrians on the street, with no discernible professions.

"Who is in charge?"

"I am Lin Xing, the general manager of this factory. And you are..."

"Hello Mr. Lin, we are residents of a nearby community, that one, not far from here, only a five-minute drive."

A middle-aged man stepped forward and said, "It's like this. I heard that our factory has been requisitioned by the Doomsday Command, and workers from other factories have come here to help."

We were worried that with so many people arriving all at once and the task being so urgent, the factory might not be able to handle the logistics, so we contacted our neighbors to see if there was anything we could do to help.

The crowd started chattering: "President Lin, I have two empty bedrooms at home. The workers can come to my house if they have nowhere to rest! I'm free these days, so I can provide a car for them. It only takes ten minutes round trip, so it definitely won't delay anything!"

"I also have a spare bedroom at home! By the way, does the factory canteen supply steamed buns? I have a family recipe for steamed buns, how about I steam a few trays and send them over?"

"My house is full, there's no room for anyone else. But I have a car, so I can still pick people up and drop them off."

"President Lin, please make the arrangements."

Looking at the faces in front of him, brimming with enthusiasm and sincerity, Lin Xing felt his emotions becoming increasingly uncontrollable.

"Don't worry about food. The chefs from Honghe Restaurant have already arrived, and Aijia Supermarket has also delivered supplies."

As for accommodation, our factory simply can't accommodate everyone, and the nearby hotels are all fully booked. We'll have to trouble everyone with this.

"Manager Sun, please have someone immediately compile a list of which hospitals have how many beds, and who is responsible for transportation. Make sure everything is recorded!"

Sun Xiaoxue immediately stepped forward, her voice louder than ever before: "Yes!"

Lin Xingtuan bowed deeply: "Thank you, thank you, fellow villagers! Please rest assured, we guarantee to complete the production tasks of the Doomsday Command Center with high quality and quantity. Leave the task of fighting aliens to us!"

Looking at the villagers lining up to register in front of Sun Xiaoxue, a thought suddenly came to Lin Xing's mind.

"Screw you aliens! You dare come to Earth and invade us? Let us show you what the vast ocean of people's war is all about!"
