Chapter 1730

"Life and death are in the hands of God, and riches are a gift from above. If someone's time is up, it’s not on us," the old man said.

Upon hearing this, Eric became displeased. 'These old geezers clearly don't care about the lives of their fellow countrymen.'

The Combat Department's quarantine measures were highly effective, but if the virus spread, who knew how many people would perish?

However, Eric didn't show his anger. Instead, he asked, "Sir, have all your people returned? Are there any more coming back? If there are, we need to be prepared to receive them."

Hearing this, the old man laughed and pointed at Eric. "Young man, you are quite considerate!

"There are no more of our people coming back, but many others like us are eager to return. If we establish a foothold here, they will surely follow!"

Eric understood.

These old men were just the vanguard. More people would return, regardless of their nationality, as long as they had connections here.

"Heh!" Eric stood up.
