Using the radio, I send Lee a message, confirming, "We are ready to trade."
He quickly responds, indicating that he and other members of the Supermarket shelter have been eagerly waiting for our decision. His voice carries a mix of relief and anticipation, suggesting that this trade is of significant importance to their community.
I outline the terms we require for the trade:
1. Detailed information about what the government is doing, including any plans or actions they have taken in response to the current situation.
2. A variety of essential supplies, including food, medical equipment, and tools that will help us maintain and improve our own shelter.
3. The establishment of a regular communication channel between our shelters, allowing for the exchange of information and the potential for future collaboration.
Without hesitation, Lee accepts our offer, his tone conveying both gratitude and respect for our straightforward approach.
