(Thanks to my friend LUISTSYRENU, watching the sunrise at midnight, book friend 150809143753593, and boblin monthly pass for encouragement)

After all, Liu Heming is the actual owner of this land, and it didn't take long for the latest fire situation to be reported. Judging from the aerial photographs of the aircraft, the area of the fire has now exceeded 20 acres, and it is spreading to the surrounding area.

Although there are more fire brigades coming, such a large wildfire is really not something that can be handled by manpower. And now that wildfires have become climate, it is even more difficult to extinguish them.

It is true that man is the dominant creature on this earth, but in the face of such a natural disaster, it also seems very small. The only thing to be thankful for is that because the environment here in Xiangshui Town is very poor, there is no human life in this vicinity. Otherwise, I am afraid that they will not be able to escape if they want to, and the fire will spread too quickly.

When I drove back home, I saw Sasha and Alex, a mother and daughter, who seemed to be fighting again. The little guy sat on the sofa angrily, holding the little square cat in his arms, and his eyes became red.

"What's wrong with her?" Liu Heming didn't dare to act rashly, and came to Sasha's side to ask cautiously.

When she saw the news about the wildfire, she rode a bear to fight the fire. I didn't let her go, and she's been angry with me until now. Sasha said with a wry smile.

Liu Heming also grinned, in this war between his daughter and his daughter-in-law, he felt that his daughter-in-law had a good reason to occupy it, and he should also stand on his daughter-in-law's side. But seeing the sad look of the little guy, he still couldn't bear to let the little guy continue to be sad.

Coming to the side of the sofa, Liu Heming rubbed the little guy with his arm, and when the little guy saw that it was him, he directly put the little square cat aside, threw himself into his arms and cried.

This was not a fake cry to toss Liu Heming before, but a real cry, and after a while, Liu Heming's T-shirt was wet.

"Alex, what's wrong?" tell Daddy. Liu Heming said distressedly.

"Dad, Alex is going to put out the fire, and a lot of small animals have been burned to death. The little one said as he wiped his tears and snot.

Liu Heming was stunned for a moment, and smiled bitterly in his heart.

Although he has a high affinity with animals, he is still worse than his daughter, and now he knows the reason.

In their own psyche, animals are animals after all. It's like the first thing I thought of just now was humans, because there were no humans trapped in the fire, and I was a little lucky. This is normal thinking, and in the values of normal people, human life is much higher than the life of these animals.

But in Alex's mind? These animals are no different from people. Those who can play with themselves are good friends, and they have spent so much time with animals, and now they see some animals burned to death by wildfires on the news, how can the little guy not be sad.

"Alex, the firefighter uncles are already fighting the fire in a plane. Even if you go there, it won't help much. Liu Heming could only persuade his daughter.

Sasha on the side now knows why her daughter wants to go over to fight the fire with a small bucket, not because she is playful, but for the sake of the little animals trapped by the fire.

"Alex, mom apologizes to you. Don't worry, even if you don't go over, those firefighter uncles will work hard to put out the fire. Sasha sat down beside Alex and comforted her.

"Still, a lot of the animals were burned. They couldn't outrun the fire, and they fell down when they ran. The little guy said with tears in his eyes.

I don't know why, listening to Alex's words, Liu Heming also felt very uncomfortable in his heart, and couldn't help but worry about the animals in the mountains and forests that might be wiped out.

And this discomfort is still a little unreasonable, it is a sad emotion that is constantly rising, as if someone is constantly pinching his heart, and his strength is getting stronger and stronger.

After feeling it carefully, he realized that this sadness seemed to emanate from Alex and the listless little animals lying on the floor in the living room.

"Alex, Dad will find a way to try to rescue more animals. Liu Heming wiped the tears of the little guy and said very seriously.

He didn't know why he felt the sadness of Alex and the animals, and he thought it had something to do with his animal affinity. He felt that he really needed to do something.

"Governor Bullock, is it convenient to talk now?" took out his mobile phone, and he dialed directly from Governor Bullock of Montana, which was still Bullock's personal cellphone.

"Dexter, what's the matter?" Brock's voice rang over.

"Now that there are wildfires in the forests around Xiangshui Town, I wonder if the state government can mobilize more firefighting helicopters to increase the speed of extinguishing fires. Liu Heming said.

"Dexter, you can rest assured that we have mobilized all the forces we can to put out this wildfire. Brock said.

"But now the fire is too big, and the temperature in the mountains and forests is very high, and it is difficult for people on the ground to enter. It also adds great difficulty to the extinguishing of mountain fires. ”

"Can't you cut down trees and set up a barrier around the perimeter of the fire?" asked Liu Heming.

"Dexter, it's a very simple solution, but it requires more manpower. The wildfires are now too wide, and the latest news I've received has been more than thirty acres. Brock said with a wry smile.

If you are just discovering it, you can quickly cut down trees, and you can also set up the isolation belt. The current wildfire area is really too big, and even if you want to set it up, there are not so many people.

"Bullock, can I unite with the state government in my own name to make a message and hire more people to come and help put out the fire. After a little silence, Liu Heming spoke.

"I am responsible for their travel expenses, food and lodging. I will come out with the funds, and the experts will be found by the state government. According to the current situation of the spread of the fire, the best location of the separation zone is planned. ”

"Dexter, do you think it's necessary? It's going to cost a lot of money, far more than the value of these trees. Brock asked after a moment of silence.

Like Liu Heming, his first concern is the safety of personnel, and then the economic damage caused by the wildfire. The situation here in Xiangshui Town is special, and the mountains and forests here belong to Liu Heming, so he can not consider the economic losses. There is no danger to the personnel, and he feels that this mountain fire can be saved slowly, safety first.

"Brock, I've thought about it. Although the value of these trees is not very high, if the burned area is too large, it will also affect the future planning of my ranch. Liu Heming said with a smile.

"I'm going to start the arrangement now, and I hope the state government can help me find a real firefighting expert and give constructive advice. ”

"Okay, I'll put you in touch now. Brock said.

He couldn't persuade Liu Heming anymore, because the money belonged to Liu Heming, and if people wanted to spend their own money to fight the fire, you couldn't stop it. And if he can really control the fire quickly, it will also be good for him.

ended the call with Bullock, and Liu Heming contacted Liu Yi again.

If you want to fight fires, you need people, a lot of people. However, in the United States, the country is sparsely populated, and if you want to get together so many people, you can only recruit from outside. As he said, he can bear the expenses of the exchange, as well as the food, shelter and tools for cutting down trees.

Originally, he planned to give some salary, but he was blocked by Liu Yi. It's good to be able to offer so much, and if you bring a salary, maybe some of the people who come here have a special purpose.

In fact, Liu Yi didn't understand Liu Heming's actions, but he was a part-time worker, and Liu Heming's attitude was so resolute, he had to do this matter firmly.

This is his experience since getting along with Liu Heming, there are some things that can be persuaded to him, but if Liu Heming's attitude is very resolute, then there is only implementation. Because of this person, sometimes it is very screwed.

"Alright, Alex, Dad will get more people to come and fight the fire. Liu Heming put down the phone and said to Alex.

"When Uncle Liu Yi is ready, let's go over with Uncle TC and go to the scene to fight the fire, so that we can rescue more small animals. ”

"Well, dad is so nice. The little one leaned over and kissed him on the cheek.

"Isn't it dangerous?" Sasha asked, a little worried.

"No, we'll only be on the periphery. Liu Heming smiled and shook his head.

"Alex wants to do it because she's pure in heart. If you don't take her there, she'll be very unhappy. And she has a good relationship with the small animals, with her over there, the escaped small animals will not run around, so as to avoid secondary damage to them caused by fire. ”

"Well, I'll go with you, too. Sasha glanced at Liu Heming carefully, and said with some unease.

Liu Heming spoils Alex too much, and she can do anything about hiring people to fight fires, and she is worried that Liu Heming will take Alex deep into the sea of fire.

TC They also hurriedly prepared after receiving Liu Heming's notice, this mission is a bit special, and they have never been in contact with it. not only to protect Liu Heming's safety, but also to help assist in firefighting.

After more than an hour of preparation, Liu Heming and the others set off to rush to the fire again. The restaurant was also temporarily closed, bringing Tang Shen and all the other chefs with him. I don't know how many people will come, but as long as there are people who come, we must solve their food problems.

It wasn't just George who got the news and came with him, but the rest of the people in Xiangshui Town. As a resident of Xiangshui Town, I also have to contribute.
