Xiao Ping knows Wang Dacang's personality very well, and with his character of "the sky falls and the quilt is covered", unless something very serious happens, he will never speak to himself in such an anxious tone.

Thinking of this, Xiao Ping was also a little anxious, and hurriedly said loudly: "Don't worry, speak slowly, what happened?"

Wang Dacang was stunned for two seconds, but he didn't know how to say yes, he just hurriedly said: "I don't know what to say about Lu Dao, come back quickly, you will know Lu Dao when you come back!"

Wang Dacang's words made Xiao Ping understand that the situation was complicated, and the words on the phone were obviously not clear, and he paused and asked the most worried question: "Is anyone injured or dead?"

"Not really. Wang Cannon's answer made Xiao Ping secretly relieved, but his next words made Xiao Ping's heart rise again: "But if it continues to develop like this, everyone will have no way to live!"

"I'll rush back as soon as possible!" Zhilu said that this time the matter must be very serious, Xiao Ping only said this sentence and hung up the phone.

Lei Qianlong also saw that Xiao Ping's face was wrong, and asked with some concern: "Brother Xiao, something happened at home?"

"I have to rush back as soon as possible. Xiao Ping took a deep breath to calm himself down, and said to Lei Qianlong: "Lend me this car, I'll leave to go back, and I'll pay you back when I find a chance in the future!"

"What is a car, Brother Xiao, you just drive away. Lei Qianlong didn't take a car to heart, but asked puzzledly: "Isn't it faster to take a plane back, Brother Xiao, why do you want to drive?"

"I don't worry about Chen Lao's word consignment, so it's better to bring it back by myself. Xiao Ping explained briefly, and took what Lei Qianlong handed over. Start the car and go.

"Be careful on the road, safety first!" saw Xiao Ping walking in a hurry. Lei Qianlong hurriedly reminded him to pay attention to safety.

However, Xiao Ping couldn't hear Lei Qianlong's words anymore, and the car drove far away in the blink of an eye. Then turn onto the main road and merge into the rolling traffic.

Because he didn't know what happened to the Ludao Farm, Xiao Ping, who was anxious, was also anxious to rush back. There are more than 1,000 kilometers from the capital to Su City, and Xiao Ping drove for more than ten hours in a row, and finally entered the scope of Su City at night. Except for two stops to refuel along the way, he didn't make any stops at all.

Thanks to Xiao Ping, both in terms of physical strength and energy, he is much stronger than ordinary people. Otherwise, he will definitely be tired enough to drive this road, and maybe he will have a traffic accident due to fatigue driving.

Xiao Ping was worried about the situation at the farm and drove back to the farm directly. When he came to the vicinity of Xiaozhou Village. It was already past nine o'clock in the evening. The farm is on the boundary of Xiaozhou Village, and it will take you a few minutes to get there. Seeing that the farm he went to was still as quiet as usual, Xiao Ping's heart that had been hanging all the way finally relaxed a little, at least for now, the situation did not seem to be as serious as imagined.

However, when Xiao Ping drove forward a few hundred meters, he began to feel that something was wrong. A strange smell wafted in through the crack in the car window, this slightly sweet and bitter chemical smell, which made Xiao Ping's throat very uncomfortable, and he coughed involuntarily.

The violent coughing forced Xiao Ping to reduce the speed of the car. He hurriedly closed all the windows tightly, which was a little better. Xiao Ping had never smelled this kind of smell near the farm, and he couldn't help muttering to himself at this time: "Where did this strange smell come from?"

As the car got closer to the farm, the smell intensified. Even the closed windows can't keep the smell out of the car. Xiao Ping frowned involuntarily.

By this time the farm had arrived. Xiao Ping quickly drove the car into the parking lot of the farm, and found that the office building next to it was brightly lit, and everyone obviously did not go home. It shows that this time the matter is indeed very serious.

Xiao Ping turned off the engine and got out of the car, and as soon as he opened the door, he smelled an extremely pungent smell. It smelled exactly the same as what he smelled in the car. It's just that it's stronger than several times, and Xiao Ping, who is completely unprepared, was almost smoked by such a stimulating taste.

"Damn!" Xiao Ping involuntarily burst into a foul mouth. Covering his mouth and nose, he ran into the office building.

Although the same smell permeates the building, it is much better than the outside because all the doors and windows are closed. Xiao Ping walked quickly into the large conference room, and sure enough, he found that everyone was there.

"The boss is back!" After seeing Xiao Ping, everyone, including Wang Dacang, breathed a sigh of relief. Although Xiao Ping is younger than most of the people present, all kinds of magical performances in the past year have made him the backbone of everyone.

Xiao Ping also had a stomach problem, and as soon as he entered the door, he asked everyone like a cannon: "What's going on with the farm? Also, what's going on with this strange smell? It's almost choking me to death!"

"Boss, these two things are actually one thing. Wang Xiaohu was much more eloquent than his father, and he was the first to speak: "Since last night, the people in the village have begun to smell strange smells. At that time, the taste was not so strong, and everyone didn't pay much attention to it. But this morning, the smell became stronger and stronger, and everyone realized that something was wrong. My dad found out that the smell was coming from the Xiaozhou River, and even the river water had changed color, so he hurriedly called you. ”

"River water pollution?!" Listening to Wang Xiaohu's words, this thought immediately popped up in Xiao Ping's mind, and finally understood why Wang Cannon was so anxious on the phone in the morning.

If the Xiaozhou River can emit such a bad smell, it undoubtedly means that the river water is already very polluted. The Xiaozhou River, which is originally clear, is the lifeblood of the farm, and the vegetables in the greenhouses, the orchards in the mountains, and even the fish ponds are all directly taken from the river. The pollution of the river right now means that the farm's water source is gone, which is not a trivial matter.

What worries Xiao Ping even more is that the polluted water in the Xiaozhou River will inevitably seep into the soil and groundwater on both sides of the river, and then pollute large areas of land. The farm, which happens to be on both sides of the Xiaozhou River, is undoubtedly the first to bear the brunt of this pollution.

If the news of the pollution of the Xiaozhou River spreads, who else would dare to buy the vegetables produced by the farm? If everything produced by the farm is unsalable, and if it is big, it will even have an impact on the brand of "Xianhu" and drag down all the other businesses of Xiao Ping. From this point of view, Wang Dacang said something terrible on the phone in the morning, and it is not an exaggeration that everyone has no way to survive if it continues to develop, but it is true.

Thinking of this, Xiao Ping's brows furrowed even tighter, and he asked several people in charge of the farm: "If there is such a situation, you didn't call the police, or report to the Environmental Protection Bureau?"

Of course I did. Zhao Quan, who is in charge of the chicken farm, said worriedly: "We first called the police, and the police came to see it and said that it was not under their control, but under the control of the Environmental Protection Bureau." We reported to the Environmental Protection Bureau, and they said that they would send someone to check on the situation, but they waited for a day and saw no one. Boss, you should hurry up and react above. Since this strange smell came out, all the chickens in the chicken farm have lost their heads, and many chicks have died. I'm afraid that if this continues, all the chickens will die. ”

Wang Xiaohu also said with a sad face: "Yes, the situation in the fish pond is not very good! Although I didn't change the water today, I can be regarded as saving the fish in the pond." But I'm worried that sooner or later the sewage will seep into the fish pond, and then we will lose a lot!"

Wang Dacang said worriedly: "I don't know where this sewage comes from, the impact is too great." Even in our village, many elderly people and children couldn't bear the smell and were all taken to the hospital by their families. Many have even left the village to live with relatives. ”

"The situation is so serious, the Environmental Protection Bureau actually ignores it?" Xiao Ping said angrily: "These guys are really bastards! What about the phone number? I'll call them!"

Wang Xiaohu immediately found the phone number of the Environmental Protection Bureau, and Xiao Ping called the 24-hour hotline marked above.

The phone rang several times, but no one answered. Xiao Ping didn't care so much, he just didn't hang up the phone and kept the ringtone, but until the ringtone became a busy tone, no one came to answer the call.

Of course, Xiao Ping would not stop there, and immediately pressed the redial button to keep the phone ringing. It wasn't until he pressed the redial button for the fourth time that someone finally answered the phone.

"Hey, who's going to look for?" said the person on the other end of the line, looking impatient.

Xiao Ping tried his best to say in a calm tone: "It's the county environmental protection bureau, I have an important situation reaction!"

However, the other party's temper seemed to be bigger than Xiao Ping's, and he said angrily: "It's already time to get off work, you have to react to the situation and wait for tomorrow to come back after work!"

Xiao Ping held back his anger and said: "Isn't this a 24-hour reporting hotline? How can there be off-duty time? If you don't care about it in the county, I will call directly to the city and the province!"

The other party was frightened by Xiao Ping's attitude, and said impatiently: "Okay, just tell me if there is any situation, and I will tell the leader." ”

"What I want to do is the pollution of the Xiaozhou River. Xiao Ping said loudly: "The river water is very polluted, and the smell has reached an unbearable level, why is no one taking care of it?"

The other party obviously already knew about this matter, and was not surprised at all: "We already know about this matter, and we will send someone to the scene as soon as possible to check, thank you for your concern about environmental protection work, see you again!"

After saying these formulaic words, the other party immediately hung up the phone, and didn't even give Xiao Ping a chance to say a word.

"Irresponsible bastards. Listening to the busy tone on the phone, Xiao Ping couldn't help but curse hatefully.

The Environmental Protection Bureau does not take the pollution of the Xiaozhou River seriously, but Xiao Ping does not dare to take it lightly. He stayed in his office all night, worried about the future of the farm. finally survived until dawn, and immediately went to the Xiaozhou River with Wang Dacang and others to see what was going on.

As soon as Xiao Ping came to the river, he was stunned by the scene in front of him. (To be continued.) )
