Chapter 25 The Situation is Grim

The rain kept falling, just like the song sang, and the atmosphere in the city hall room was not harmonious.

Mayor Fang had two big bags under his eyes that couldn't be concealed, and the nasolabial folds were more obvious than usual, and the six deputy mayors under him were not much better, looking very tired, and they didn't care that the mayor was a lady, and there were already several cigarette butts in the ashtrays in front of them.

Mayor Fang gestured to the clerk who was taking the minutes of the meeting, the window opened, and a gust of wind with water vapor blew in, and the air was finally fresher.

"At the Standing Committee just now, Secretary Xu conveyed the instructions of the provincial party committee that all the work at this stage is mainly based on flood prevention and waterlogging. The meteorological department expects that the heavy rain will continue for some time to come, and on the whole, the flood control situation this year is not optimistic.

The city party committee has given us two instructions: The most important thing is to ensure safety, ensure the safety of the people's lives and property, and ensure the safety of the city's key projects under construction.

Second, to ensure that the planned flood storage area is able to perform its due role when possible.

I would like to say one more request, in the face of such a natural disaster, we must ensure that it does not occur*. After the meeting, everyone immediately informed the heads of each branch that the spirit of the meeting must be conveyed in place, and at such a moment, if there is still a *, then the relevant parties must be held politically responsible. ”

As soon as the words fell, Vice Mayor Cao, who was in charge of industry, put out the cigarette butt in the ashtray, "I firmly support the spirit of the resolution of the provincial and municipal party committees, but the situation of these factories under the city, the mayor also knows that more than one-third of the factories have not paid wages for three months, and those factory directors have been complaining about me all day long. Also, in the first two months, on the issue of flood control and waterlogging. We have already checked and strengthened the old factory buildings and staff dormitories, but now we look at the flood situation far more than in the past. The precautionary work done by the original standards is estimated to be insufficient. ”

Vice Mayor Cao just finished speaking. Everyone is talking nonsense, in short, they are not asking for money, but they are asking for things, but the foundation of the city is already thin, and the former mayor has been engaged in construction in a big way, so he has long been borrowing debts everywhere. Where can you get the money?

Mayor Fang rubbed his temples that were a little swollen, thinking that last year, he was also sitting among the people below, asking for money and things, and this year it was the turn of others to open their mouths to her. conAd1();

After thinking about it, she said to the secretary general of the municipal government, "Help me make an appointment with the presidents of the four major banks and arrange for me to meet with them as soon as possible." ”

The Secretary-General got up and was about to make a phone call, but before they could leave the conference room, the phone rang in the corner of the conference room. He walked over and picked up the phone, "What? Are there any casualties? Okay, I got it." ”

The bickering mayors paused. "Mayor Fang, the third workshop of the city's aluminum products factory collapsed. "I'm really afraid of anything.

"Everyone go back and arrange the work immediately, Lao Cao, you come with me. ”

The two cars drove one after the other on the waterlogged road, "Have the public security and fire department arrived? Are there any casualties?" Mayor Fang asked the secretary who was using his mobile phone to contact the secretary at the scene.

"The public security and fire department have arrived at the scene, and preliminary statistics show that there are three workers under the pressure, and two have been found so far, and they are in good physical condition. There is another one, who is still searching for and rescuing."

The scene of the incident was devastated. The long three workshops, the section on the right collapsed into a pile. Scattered red bricks, blackened wood, rusty steel frames, and colored steel tiles crumpled together like pieces of paper are piled up in a mess.

The officers and soldiers of the public security and fire department, the workers in the factory, and some family members were relaying to move these away little by little, and an old woman was desperately digging with her hands on the rubble, crying and shouting, "Lao Qiu, you must not have anything to do!"

Mayor Fang threw away the umbrella, took a raincoat from the secretary, and joined the clean-up, as soon as she took the lead, of course Vice Mayor Cao couldn't watch, and in the end, even the drivers of the two cars joined in.

When the ruins were half cleared, a Mitsubishi Pajero drove in, a fat man in a hurry got down from the passenger seat, and a secretary-like person with a leather bag got out of the back seat, and quickly opened the umbrella to prop it on his head.

A young man who was cleaning up stopped in front of him, "Fat Liu, you shit, if something happens to my father, I'll not finish with you." conAd2();”

The workers next to him grabbed him and looked at Feng Fatzi coldly, her mother's hair was scattered, and her face was full of stains, and she came over and scolded him, "What can you expect from Liu Fatty? Don't hurry up, you want your father to die!"

Liu Fatzi looked at the two mayors in the crowd, his face was blue and white for a while, he grabbed a hard hat and put it on his head, and went to greet Mayor Fang, "Mayor Fang." ”

Mayor Fang ignored him, he had to go to Vice Mayor Cao, "Mayor Cao, I was talking about cooperation with a Wenzhou person, and I rushed over immediately when I heard the news, I arranged everything in the factory, how could something happen?"

Vice Mayor Cao looked at him hatefully, and didn't speak.

Finally, under a press brake, everyone found an old worker surnamed Qiu, this old equipment produced in Jinling in the sixties saved him, although one of his legs was crushed under a steel frame, but his life was saved.

…………

This is a rare weekend, but everyone can only stay at home, the three of them watched the video disc for a morning, and felt a little dizzy, so they pulled Feng Yiping together, and the four of them played cards together.

Playing cards with them, well, Feng Yiping really doesn't know how to describe it, it's slow, you look at my cards, I look at your cards, and I will regret the cards, Feng Yiping accompanied them to play a few handfuls, and he couldn't wait anymore, and hid in the study alone.

It doesn't matter if there is one less person, they use cards to play the game of bastards, the rules are very simple, except for a king and a single 8 a single Q, the rest are unchanged, everyone draws a card from the previous hand every time, make up a pair, it is eliminated, and in the end, the remaining three in the hand will lose, that is, the bastard.

This is a game to kill time, no brains, pure luck, they played a few games outside, it seemed that Huang Jingshu had been a bastard for a few times, and finally stopped playing and went back to the room to sleep.

While her cousin went back to the room and Zhang Qiuling went to the bathroom, Huang Jingping sneaked into the study, pressed Feng Yiping's head from behind, and clicked on his forehead, and then "giggled" and ran back to the room to sleep. conAd3();

Feng Yiping touched her wet forehead, a little funny, how did she look like a child who had eaten candy, or a cat that had stolen a fishy thing.

With the next non-stop, such weather is a good weather for lazy sleep, and the two rooms are quiet for a while.

Feng Yi looked out the window calmly, looking over from here, most of the reeds by the river had been submerged in the water, and he didn't know if the river would flood into the community in a few days.

He leaned back in his chair like this, and when he was about to fall asleep, Huang Jingshu walked in quietly with bare feet, "Let's go out for a walk!"

"Okay!" Feng Yiping knew that this conversation would come sooner or later. (To be continued)
