Chapter 154 - 35: Return (2) (Second Update)
"The food supplies will cover three days, and everyone can get a three-day free supply. After three days, only those with jobs that can support themselves will continue to receive food."
"What if someone doesn’t have a job?"
"If you don’t have a job, then register. I will repurchase all idle land and hand it over to the unemployed for farming. Remember, it is rented to you, and you need to pay rent. Although it’s not much, it must be paid. Furthermore, the ownership of the land does not belong to you and cannot be used for transactions. Even for those who have jobs, the food distribution will stop once the next harvest comes. You must support yourselves."
"What about the previous new policy? I mean, the one where money was given out."
"It’s gone."
"No, I don’t agree, why do this, that was our money! And your food isn’t even distributed constantly!"
"If you choose the original new policy, then I will take away all the food. In other words, the new food distribution policy will no longer exist. You choose. Only those who work hard will have a good life. The lazy should go hungry."
Suddenly, everyone fell silent.
"Alright, I think food distribution is still better," the hungry civilians mumbled.
No one opposed anymore because Gray held the food in his hands. It wasn’t just a little food, but an abundant supply, an endless stream of food. And they, the civilians on the brink of starvation, urgently needed food to save their lives.
Gray’s plan to cancel the "new policy" finally went unimpeded.
