Gu Kaiyuan had brought this matter up before, and Bai Suihe already shared his concerns. If they had made preparations beforehand to relocate the people gradually, it would have been feasible. But with such a massive crowd, how could they find enough space to accommodate everyone all at once?
"I asked Jiannan for some manpower a while ago, and we've already managed to churn out some cement," Gu Kaiyuan said. "I plan to build a few houses over there based on the blueprints you drew. These concrete houses are weather-tested; even if a typhoon hits, the people will have a safe shelter."
"Since you've made up your mind, arrange for them to head over as soon as possible. Remember to pack extra provisions. We've scouted that island before—there's a sizable patch of fertile land in the center. See if they can grow some crops or raise poultry to supplement their food supply."
