Therefore, when he noticed the number of people had been cut in half, he immediately went outside.
Zhou Zhendong was still stationed there. When he saw Cheng Zongyang arrive, Cheng Zongyang spoke before he could even salute. "The first batch is enough."
Upon hearing this, Zhou Zhendong immediately cupped his hands in acknowledgment. "Yes!"
Zhou Zhendong acted swiftly and decisively. After speaking, he saw that Cheng Zongyang had already departed. He then dispatched a messenger to inform Su Ze that the quota had been met.
Outside the city, when Su Ze heard the quota had been filled, he continued arranging the remaining people into a final group to proceed to the neighboring Luoyang Prefecture.
From the very first day, these people had been sent off in batches, first allocated to the northern and eastern regions. Only the last ones to leave were assigned to closer locations.
