Chapter 36: The People's Will Can Be Utilized

"Let's go, Minister Thomas. It seems that the place where the Royal Assistance Committee distributes supplies is just ahead. Since we have come this far, let's go and have a look." Arthur suddenly noticed the bustling crowd in the street ahead, with people apparently lining up for something. He said to Thomas with a hint of interest.

"Yes, Your Highness." Minister Thomas immediately followed, respectfully responding.

In front of the crowd, several Relief Committee officers were busily and orderly registering and distributing grain.

Although merely estimating from the several lines of queues, there were at least a few thousand people. Surprisingly, these thousands of people formed three long lines, stretching from the central streets of Sydney to the Harbor Road Southside.
