"Can this really work?"
Zhou Ping'an watched as group after group of refugees were herded out of the city by the City Defense Soldiers like ducks.
From east to west, every household's able-bodied men were all pulled out as well.
A loud-speaking soldier declared, "Starting today, no trading will be permitted within the city. All food and cloth will be distributed by the Official Government, with a fixed quota per person, ensuring that everyone has food to eat and clothes to wear.
General Ping'an said, first eat, then work—if you work more, you can eat your fill."
"You're asking about this? Don't worry, someone has tried it already, and it works very well."
Zhou Ping'an answered with a smile.
