SRTT Chapter 22.3

Qin Ruide quickly pulled him aside: “Your heart disease medicine is gone. Stop torturing yourself.”

After persuading his friend to sit down, Qin Ruide turned to Wu Jin and said, “Well, you said that the food is gone, so we have to find a source. What do you think?”

Wu Jin said nonchalantly: “What else can we do? Expand the membership.”

Qin Ruide was stunned: “What do you mean by expanding the membership? How to expand it?”

Wu Jin smiled and said: “Except for the gun-carrying people on the 18th floor, the others are our development targets. I have already told my men that we will recruit four households on the fifth and sixth floors this morning, start from the seventh floor in the afternoon, and greet every household.”

Qin Ruide: “What do you mean? They don’t want to join at all. Do you want to steal their food?”

Wu Jin said: “How can this be considered robbery? Isn’t it good to join the big family to unite and help each other in the face of natural disasters?”

Qin Ruide’s face changed. He stood up from the stool: “Wu Jin! You are breaking the law. You can’t do this!”

Wu Jin glanced at him and said calmly: “Wasn’t it illegal to pry open the door at the beginning? Didn’t you agree?”

“You are almost starving to death now, don’t you agree with my solution?”

“It’s okay if you disagree. Then, what are you and your grandson going to eat?”

Qin Ruide looked at everyone.

Most of them moved here from the villa area. They had met each other more or less in normal times. They were always well-dressed in the past, and some of them donated a lot every year.

Now, no one dared to look back at him, especially the two familiar families.

Qin Ruide felt uncomfortable and said to a younger generation: “Xiao Lin, I don’t blame you for not following me. Do you agree to rob others?”

The man gritted his teeth and said: “Uncle Qin, we are starving to death now. How can we care about others?”

Qin Ruide’s face turned pale, and he fell on the chair. After a while, he said: “I don’t agree. If we start this kind of robbery, the consequences are unpredictable.”

Wu Jin glanced at the other four old men and said, “Do you all disagree? If I find any food, I promise to share some with you.”

At this moment, except for the old man who slammed the table, the other three families began to hesitate.

Qin Ruide thought of something and suddenly said excitedly: “Don’t rob. I have a way.”

“We can borrow a boat from the 18th floor!”

Wu Jin looked at Qin Ruide, and after a long time, he suddenly laughed: “Are you sure? That’s a man with a gun, definitely more ruthless than me. Will they lend you the rubber boat?”

Qin Ruide’s expression became even more exciting: “How do you know if you don’t try? I’ll go ask right away.”

He looked at everyone again: “If I can borrow a rubber boat, are you willing to go out with me?”

This time, most people were interested, but Wu Jin didn’t speak up.

Regardless of whether you were willing to go out or not, wouldn’t it be better to borrow a boat?

There was another option.  It was better than robbery, right?

Wu Jin sneered: “If you have the guts, go out and talk. I will definitely not stop you.”

He looked at Qin Ruide and said, “Leader Qin, since you said you want to borrow a boat, we will wait for your good news.”

“But, you’d better hurry up. Otherwise, the brothers will go crazy with hunger and might expand the membership early.”

Qin Ruide stood up and went to the 18th floor without stopping.
