As soon as Zhang Guoquan heard Xiao Ping's strange tone, he knew that he was playing treasure again, and couldn't help laughing and scolding: "Don't ambush me, just say what you think!" ”

"You want me to say it, then you're welcome." Xiao Ping said honestly: "The fact is that the entire Xiaozhou River has turned red, and the smell is terrible, and there are almost no people in many villages by the river. The plants on both sides of the river have begun to wither, indicating that even the land has been affected. This is the kind of water quality, and the county environmental protection bureau tested it to be qualified! ”

Hearing Xiao Ping say this, Zhang Guoquan couldn't help but say angrily: "This is obviously dereliction of duty!" ”

"Malfeasance? Hehe......" Xiao Ping sneered: "I'll tell you the truth, I found the manufacturer that polluted the Xiaozhou River, and called the Public Security Bureau and the Environmental Protection Bureau to complain." As a result, a few phone calls came to no avail, and the next day a group of people were sent to teach me a lesson, telling me not to meddle in my affairs. Tell me, is this simple malfeasance? ”

"What a guts!" Zhang Guoquan was really angry at this time, and slapped the table heavily and said, "I want to go to you in person to see how bold those people are!" ”

"Welcome, welcome!" Xiao Ping hurriedly reminded Zhang Guoquan: "But you'd better prepare a few good masks, the smell here is too bad." ”

Knowing that Xiao Ping was concerned about himself, Zhang Guoquan slowed down and said, "Thank you, Xiao Xiao, let's see you in the afternoon." ”

"Okay, we'll see you then, Uncle Zhang will see you again." Xiao Ping hung up the phone after saying goodbye to Zhang Guoquan, and then said to himself: "It's lively now, see what those guys who eat dry food and don't do anything, hum!" ”

Zhang Guoquan's style of work has always been vigorous and resolute. said that he would go to Xiaozhou River in person in the afternoon to see what was going on, and naturally he would not break his promise. In order to be able to get first-hand information. Zhang Guoquan also brought a team of experts from the Provincial Environmental Protection Bureau and portable testing equipment, and set off from the provincial capital in several vehicles. Straight to Xiao Ping's farmstead.

In order to understand the real situation, Zhang Guoquan did not notify the relevant departments of Su City and Changfeng County, which can be regarded as a thorough surprise inspection.

When Zhang Guoquan and his entourage arrived near the farm, they immediately smelled the peculiar smell emanating from the Xiaozhou River. Unexpectedly, the pollution situation was even more serious than expected, and Zhang Guoquan's expression became grim. When he saw the crimson water, his face became even more ugly.

The water of the river has become like this, and even the layman can tell that the Xiaozhou River is seriously polluted. The county environmental protection bureau actually claimed that the river was normal, which made Zhang Guoquan angry more than environmental pollution.

Looking at Xiaozhouhe, which had been ruined, Zhang Guoquan was angry. He refused the mask handed by his secretary. Let the secretary dial Xiao Ping's phone and tell him that he was by the river outside the farm, and let Xiao Ping come out to find him.

As the governor of a province, Zhang Guoquan is very cautious in his every move in public. The farm was Xiao Ping's private property, and he would not enter it easily, so as not to give any hints to others. This is also a manifestation of Zhang Guoquan's self-cleanliness, Xiao Ping also understands this, and immediately came out to meet him after receiving the call.

With the governor in charge, the people below will of course be very efficient. Wait for Xiao Ping to arrive. Experts from the provincial environmental protection bureau have completed sampling of the river water and are about to put it into the equipment for testing.

Xiao Ping saw Zhang Guoquan from afar, and hurriedly stepped forward to greet him: "Hello Governor Zhang." ”

Seeing that Xiao Ping used a formal title for himself in front of outsiders, Zhang Guoquan was also very satisfied. "This young man's name is Xiao Ping, and he discovered the source of the pollution and reported it to the local public security bureau and environmental protection bureau," he said. ”

Although Zhang Guoquan introduced Xiao Ping's tone was flat. But none of the people present were fools, and they could all see that Xiao Ping and Governor Zhang were very familiar. They all greeted Xiao Ping. Two people also praised Xiao Ping a few words and praised him for his sense of justice. Care for the environment and so on. In fact, if it weren't for Zhang Guoquan's bad mood, there would definitely be more people coming up to get close to Xiao Pingtao.

But now most people's attention is focused on the instruments of the provincial environmental protection bureau, and everyone is waiting for the test results. Although everyone is sure that the pollution of the Xiaozhou River must have exceeded the standard, it is still necessary to wait for the test results of the instrument to which indicators exceed the standard and how much.

Under the attention of everyone, especially Zhang Guoquan, the experts of the Environmental Protection Bureau also felt the pressure. The two of them were wiping the sweat from their foreheads while manipulating the equipment, and they felt more nervous than they had ever been when they had taken exams in college.

Fortunately, Zhang Guoquan still maintained enough patience, and he did not mean to urge the two, which can be regarded as relieving the pressure on the two. The test equipment continued to operate, and it didn't take long to get the approximate results, and I began to spit out and print out the test reports of various data.

Li Jinsong, the chief engineer of the Provincial Environmental Protection Bureau, only glanced at the report, his face immediately became solemn, and he hurriedly reported to Zhang Guoquan: "Governor Zhang, the pollution of this river is very serious, the pH is only 2.5, the organic compounds and heavy metals are seriously exceeded, and the concentration of formaldehyde, aromatic amines and other strong carcinogens is very high.

The water seeps into the surrounding land and groundwater, making large areas of land uncultivable, and even if you barely grow any crops, it will be polluted and inedible! ”

Although he had been prepared for the pollution of the Xiaozhou River, Zhang Guoquan was still a little surprised when he heard Li Jinsong say that it was so serious, and hurriedly asked: "How can it be treated?" ”

"The first thing is to cut off the source of pollution, then drain the river and clean up all the polluted land on the river bottom and banks, so that the impact can be minimized." Li Jinsong shook his head as he spoke: "However, such a project is very large, and the polluted groundwater cannot be completely treated, and the adverse effects will last for decades or even hundreds of years." ”

The more Zhang Guoquan listened, the more ugly his face became, and finally he couldn't help but say loudly: "The consequences of pollution are so serious, when someone has already reported it and found the source of pollution, the local government actually ignores it!" Not only did it not stop the pollution immediately, but it gave the green light and cover for this behavior, and even made a test report that the river water met the national third-level water quality standards! What an act this is, a dereliction of duty, a crime! ”

Seeing that the governor was angry, everyone trembled, and they didn't dare to look at Zhang Guoquan at all, for fear that the first blow to the board would hit them. Only Xiao Ping still looked indifferent, leaning on the van in which Zhang Guoquan was riding with his arms crossed, and looked thoughtfully at the dirty Xiaozhou River.

After listening to the treatment plan said by the engineer of the Provincial Environmental Protection Bureau, Xiao Ping was also secretly frightened. Although he was a complete layman, he also knew how big the project would be. If we really use this method to control the Xiaozhou River, it will be impossible to complete it in a year and a half. What to do with the farmstead during this time? What about the other people who live on both sides of the Xiaozhou River?

What's more, Li Jinsong also said that even if this method is used, the impact of pollution cannot be completely removed. These pollutants are powerful carcinogens, and God knows how bad the impact it will have on both sides of the Xiaozhou River. Zhang Jigang's father and son caused such serious pollution for their own selfish interests, and it was simply impossible to redeem death.

The grim situation made Xiao Ping understand that it was not enough to rely on Li Jinsong's method to control pollution, and he still had to find a way to solve the matter by himself. Otherwise, the poison on both sides of the Xiaozhou River will affect the people living here for many years, and Xiao Ping will not be able to continue to do it here.

When Xiao Ping was secretly thinking about how to solve the pollution problem, Zhang Guoquan had already finished his speech, and said to the secretary with a cold face: "Notify the leaders of the city and the county, let them rush to the site of the pollution source immediately, I want to see how they solve this problem!" ”

The secretary hurriedly answered and called the leaders of Su City and Changfeng County.

Zhang Guoquan said to Xiao Ping: "Xiao Xiao, do you know where the manufacturer that caused the pollution is, you can take everyone over." ”

Since it was actually sent by his father-in-law, Xiao Ping naturally had no complaints. He agreed repeatedly, sat in the passenger seat of the van, and took Zhang Guoquan and others to the Dongxin Fine Chemical Factory.

When I arrived near the chemical plant, the pungent smell became stronger. Zhang Guoquan's thick eyebrows were furrowed, and he became more and more dissatisfied with the work of the leaders of Changfeng County and the Environmental Protection Bureau, and he had already moved the idea of replacing him.

In order to let everyone see the pollution situation clearly, Xiao Ping directly led everyone to the other side of the river of the chemical plant, facing the sewage outlet of the chemical plant.

There was a big incident in the villa of Zhang Jigang and his son last night, but the news did not reach the factory. It's business as usual, and a lot of sewage is being discharged into the Xiaozhou River, which makes the pollution worse.

Zhang Guoquan, who saw this scene, was extremely angry. Such an obvious pollution situation is simply ignored when someone reports it, and the malfeasance of the local authorities is too obvious.

"Governor Zhang, this is it." Xiao Ping pointed to the sewage pipe opposite, adding fuel to the fire: "This situation has been going on for several days, and if you don't come, it will definitely continue." ”

Zhang Guoquan nodded with a cold face and said to the provincial environmental protection bureau: "I suggest that the environmental protection bureau immediately retain evidence, which is an important basis for severely punishing polluters in the future." ”

Now that Governor Zhang had spoken, the EPA people naturally immediately began to take pictures. However, their actions attracted the attention of the workers of the factory opposite, and when they saw someone filming the sewage discharge from the factory, a group of workers immediately ran over from the bridge with shovels and sticks, and approached Xiao Ping, Zhang Guoquan and others with a fierce attitude.

"The one with the glasses!" The worker led by pointed the water pipe in his hand at the people from the Provincial Environmental Protection Bureau, and said very arrogantly: "Hand over the camera immediately, otherwise don't blame us for being polite!" (To be continued.) )
