Forced to marry a disabled man in the countryside? I'll repay you tenfold!

Chapter 638 Was it the flood that flowed faster, or her spatial storage that was faster!

Su Wanqing pondered that many things were strictly controlled by the state, and individuals had no access to them. The space became increasingly abnormal with each upgrade, and who knew how many precious metals and rare materials it would devour later. The power of the state apparatus was immense; she would pave the way now, so that whatever she wanted to do later would be a simple matter of asking.

The marshal slammed his hand on the table, his expression solemn. "I thought it was some kind of extraordinary condition! For something this simple, did your friend even need to ask?" He turned to his confidential secretary and said, word by word, "You, draft a report now, clearly listing all of Comrade Su Wanqing's contributions, and specifying—from now on, any special materials or controlled supplies needed by Comrade Su Wanqing shall be supplied with priority, without time limits, and handled as a special case. No one is allowed to obstruct her."

What he feared was that while he was in power, he could still make things convenient for this girl, but what if he was gone one day and later people didn't understand the significance of this and wronged her? A document was her talisman.

The ministers and military representatives present could not hide their surprise—this was tantamount to giving Su Wanqing a permanent "supply pass," a privilege unprecedented in its scale.

Su Wanqing was also deeply moved. She understood the marshal's good intentions and appreciated his kindness.

She composed herself and continued, "As for the third item—the forging technology and equipment for large titanium alloy structural components—I'd like to donate it to the fighter jet research and manufacturing plant in Bincheng in my personal capacity. I previously owned 10% of the shares in that plant, and I can't just collect dividends without doing any work. This equipment would perfectly fill the gap in their most needed forming process, so I'll do them a favor."

Previously, the country used the fighter jet technology she contributed to establish a brand-new fighter jet mass production plant, which manufactures fighter jets during wartime and converts to civilian aircraft production during peacetime. She personally holds 10% of the shares.

After listening, the marshal frowned and slammed his hand on the conference table again: "No way! Xiao Su, I know you're devoted to the country, and your commitment is unquestionable. But these three things—mining equipment, refining production line, and forging technology—any one of them is a national strategic asset that would make the Americans furious! You've donated them all, without taking a single penny. How can we live with ourselves? I won't agree to this!"

Su Wanqing opened her mouth, about to say "It's free," when the marshal waved his hand at the staff officer beside him without saying a word:

"Go and invite Deputy Commander Zhao of the Bincheng Military Region and the main person in charge of that aircraft manufacturing plant."

For example, Comrade Su Wanqing contributed a complete set of world-class aerospace-grade titanium alloy forging equipment and technology. Although she did not take a penny for herself, we cannot let down the meritorious person.

I proposed that the factory give her an additional 10% of the technology shares, and all future profits from titanium alloy structural components should be distributed to her according to her shareholding. If they're unwilling to give it up, I'll poach Xiao Su and bring her to the capital!

After saying that, he looked at Su Wanqing, his face leaving no room for negotiation: "Little Su, you can't refuse this anymore. If you refuse again, you're looking down on us old folks."

Su Wanqing: "..."

Fine, if they insist on giving her shares and money, what can she do?

I guess I'll just have to put up with it.

Moreover, as long as she doesn't ask for it, it doesn't count as selling it for money, and it can be considered as doing good deeds.

Su Wanqing finally gave in and nodded obediently.

After the business was finished, the marshal immediately arranged for people to clear the room, and the atmosphere in the conference room became lively again.

The marshal took a sip of tea and suddenly asked, "I heard from Secretary Zhou that you're planning to make another trip to the disaster area in Hebei?"

Su Wanqing nodded: "Although the Yanshan area is badly damaged, at least we still have a place to stay. Hebei is flooded, and the situation is even worse. Although food has already been airdropped, I still want to go and see for myself if there are any other difficulties."

She thought to herself: There are titanium mines in Yanshan that I can get for free. There are no mines in Hebei, but who knows what else I might be able to get. Besides, once she arrives, she can give a few inspiring speeches and maybe even get ten or twenty thousand merit points for free.

Most importantly, the merit points in Yanshan have already been settled, but there's been no movement in Hebei, which means that things are still in dire straits there. She has to go and check on it as soon as possible.

Now, the priority is to quickly monetize the skills I have, settle all the merit points at once, and then head to Hebei.

"Alright." The marshal nodded, turned to the other side, and said, "Old Zhou, tell us in detail about the latest situation in Hebei. We'll listen to it together."

"Currently, 200,000 tons of cooked food have all been airdropped, and the first batch has been distributed. The sealed packaging is waterproof and moisture-proof, so it can even withstand being submerged in water. The people in the disaster area can finally eat hot food."

But the rain is still falling, and many resettlement sites have been forced to relocate a second time due to the flooding. Now, hundreds of thousands of people are crammed into the largest few high grounds, while the rest are scattered in more than a dozen temporary resettlement sites in the surrounding area.

Food and drink can temporarily cope, but medicine is not enough, especially medicine for diarrhea and skin diseases. Many people's legs and arms are bleached and ulcerated.

The most pressing issue is drinking water – the water sources have all been contaminated by the floods, and now we rely on a few water transport boats to deliver water to the resettlement sites. The water is stored in wooden buckets and metal tanks, and each trip can only carry a small amount. Tens of thousands of people need dozens of tons of water a day just for drinking, and the transport capacity is far from sufficient.

Many people had to drink unboiled, muddy water, and diarrhea was rampant. Tents, blankets, and disinfectant powder were all in short supply.

The water level is still rising, the dikes are in grave danger, the second batch of medical supplies and inflatable boats are still on their way, and in some places neither boats nor people can get in; we can only watch helplessly.

The atmosphere in the conference room turned somber again, and even those who had been laughing heartily just moments before could no longer smile.

Someone immediately chimed in: "Those water purification tablets and disinfectant powder are simply not enough; we need to bring in several times more. And then there are tents and blankets; if the water level rises further, we'll have to move to higher ground again..."

The marshal waved his hand and said, "Bring pumps and engineering teams from the surrounding provinces. Reinforce the dikes as needed, and raise them as high as possible. This once-in-a-century flood can only be overcome with the concerted efforts of the entire nation. If we really can't hold it, we'll continue to evacuate to higher ground."

After saying that, he turned to Su Wanqing and said, "Little Su, you've heard about the situation over there. It's not like Yanshan; the water level changes every day, it's very dangerous. Maybe... you shouldn't go?"

He was genuinely worried that if something happened to this girl over there, he wouldn't be able to live a peaceful life for the rest of his days.

Su Wanqing shook her head. "Marshal, don't worry, I'll stay in a safe place and won't go to any dangerous areas. But I have to go to Hebei. There are some things that only I can do there."

She paused, then added, "My friend can get some special supplies. If I don't go and coordinate, hundreds of thousands of people there will have to endure several more days of hardship."

"Are you kidding me? If she doesn't go, how will she reap the benefits? How will she collect all the floodwaters and turn them into a spiritual spring? She wants to see whether the floodwaters flow faster or her spatial storage can collect them faster!"
