Under Jiang Tao's direct command, the rescue work of the Jiapigou Coal Mine was carried out in an orderly manner. The emergency communication vehicle and the power supply vehicle also found their own parking positions, and the workers began to erect optical cables and cables. An hour later, five high-power pumps were also transported to the wellhead, and the professionals quickly installed the pumps and began pumping water.

The crowd at the scene also stopped making noise at this time, and even the families of the trapped miners stopped sobbing and silently watched the huge water flow gushing out of the outlets of the six pumps, knowing that the faster the water level went down, the greater the chance of their relatives surviving.

Jiang Tao asked a technician from the coal mine to find him, arranged for him to get the roadway drawings underground, and began to discuss the rescue method with the rescue team. Kang Liancheng also arranged for his subordinates to investigate and understand the number of people working underground on duty. The Public Security Bureau and the Work Safety Supervision Bureau respectively sent people to form a joint investigation team and began to question the parties concerned to find out the cause of the water penetration.

The time in Province X was a few hours later than the standard time, and at this time, the sun was already shining in the eastern part of Huaxia Kingdom, and the genius of Province X had just shone brightly.

Jiang Tao felt that the pumping time was long enough, and hurriedly and anxiously asked the technicians and experts present, who thought that the water level under the well should recede at this time, so Jiang Tao decided to send a rescue team down the well. Seeing the huge tank cage full of rescue team members begin to descend, everyone present has their hearts in their throats. Kang Liancheng and Jiang Tao's hearts also began to become worried, and they were worried that the news that would come out would be bad.

At this time, the specific number of people trapped in the underground was also counted, a total of 206 people were working on duty, most of them were migrant workers, and only a small number of locals accounted for a small part. The reason for the permeability is also generally clear, the Jiapigou coal mine is more than 1,000 meters to the west, it is a small lake, the bottom of the lake is less than 100 meters away from the coal mining roadway, the technician of the coal mine has designated the coal seam at the bottom of the lake as a forbidden mining area, but the mine owner Yang Yushui did not adopt the technician's opinion, saw that the coal seam was thicker, but ordered to continue mining, which led to cracks in the rock layer at the bottom of the lake, thus causing the accident.

After knowing the cause of the accident, the angry Jiang Tao slammed the table and scolded: "What is it, for the sake of the rich and unkind, and the lives of the people are disregarded, Secretary Kang, I suggest that all the accounts of the Jiapigou Coal Mine be immediately sealed to prevent them from transferring funds, and wait for the final result of the rescue, and the specific situation will be dealt with on a case-by-case basis." ”

"Good! I agree with you! Kang Liancheng did not hesitate and immediately agreed with Jiang Tao's opinion.

There were several officials in the crowd, and after hearing Jiang Tao's words, they secretly took out their mobile phones and began to send messages.

An hour later, the tank cage at the head of the well began to transport the trapped people upwards, but unfortunately all they brought up were corpses. Without waiting for the surrounding crowd to come together, the doctors and nurses waiting at the mouth of the well immediately sent the bodies of the victims on stretchers to the ambulance, and drove to the hospital with sirens.

A large number of police and armed police have surrounded the city to prevent the masses from entering, and the family members have realized that their relatives may have encountered an accident, and their emotions have begun to become excited.

Jiang Tao knew that if this situation could not be stopped in time, there might be a big mess, so he picked up the microphone, climbed onto the engine cover of a car, and shouted: "Folks! I am Mayor Jiang Tao, such a tragedy has happened, I am also very sad in my heart, please believe in the government, I will give you a satisfactory explanation, I hope you restrain your emotions and do not hinder the rescue work. ”

"! Can you, a newly arrived mayor, shake Yang Yushui? In the end, it's not about losing some money, we don't believe it. Some family members shouted excitedly.

"That's right! The officials have all been bought by Yang Yushui, why should we believe you? Someone in the crowd shouted.

Some officials began to secretly rejoice, and they hoped that the water would be as muddy as possible, so they pricked up their ears and waited to see how Jiang Tao would answer the people's questions.

Jiang Tao looked at the crowd below and shouted: "I, Jiang Tao, was also born and raised by my parents, if I don't handle this mining disaster well, you will definitely scold my ancestors for the eighteenth generation, then what face do I Jiang Tao have to continue to stay in Hoh, continue to be the mayor, please believe me, if you don't handle it well, you are not satisfied, I will take the blame and resign!" ”

The crowd quieted down suddenly, and people knew in their hearts that the mayor of this city should be regarded as a big official, since people dared to say such things, it seemed that this mayor Jiang Tao was still a reliable official.

Jiang Tao continued to shout: "Now I implore you, leave the scene, no matter what happens to the brothers in the mine, I will stay here, wait for the last person to go up the mine, the family members can go to the office of the coal mine to register, no matter what your relatives are, I will notify you in time." Let's get out of here, okay? ”

Kang Liancheng secretly gave Li Changshui, director of the Public Security Bureau, a sneaky look, Li Changshui understood what the secretary of the municipal party committee meant, and he was the first to walk into the crowd and began to persuade people to leave. Seeing that the director of the bureau had done his work in person, other police officers and armed police soldiers also began to comfort the people around them, and after a while, some people began to leave one after another.

After all, the families of the local trapped people are a minority, and as the people watching the excitement leave, there are fewer and fewer people at the scene, Jiang Tao said to Li Changshui: "Director Li, send a few cars over and place the family members in the office building of the coal mine." ”

Li Changshui quickly transferred more than a dozen police cars, and several police officers dissuaded one of them, and even persuaded them to drag them and put them in the car, and soon only the officials of Hohhot were left at the scene.

At noon, the last people to come up were the rescue team. Jiang Tao also received an accurate casualty report: A total of 180 people died and 26 survived in this permeable mining disaster, which was a serious accident.

Jiang Tao and Kang Liancheng's faces became ugly, it has only been a few days since the last government auditorium disaster, and there have been a number of deaths and injuries, and two major accidents have occurred in a province in a short period of time, how should they explain to the central government?

Kang Liancheng sighed and said to Jiang Tao: "Mayor Jiang, truthfully report the number of casualties to the provincial party committee, the provincial government, and the State Council, and we admit what kind of responsibility we should bear." ”

Jiang Tao knew in his heart that he and Kang Liancheng could hardly bear responsibility for this accident, after all, they had just arrived in Hoh, but these officials below were not so lucky, and it was estimated that many people would not be able to eat well and sleep well.

Jiang Tao nodded in agreement, he turned his head to Li Changshui and said: "Director Li, arrange for the police to block the wellhead, wait for the central investigation team, if such a big thing happens, the central government will definitely send someone down to find out the cause of the accident, what we came to just now is only a preliminary conclusion, after all, there is no legal basis." ”

The rescue at the scene came to an end, and Kang Liancheng beckoned Jiang Tao and others to go back to study the aftermath of the mining disaster.

Jiang Tao's estimate was right, hearing that so many people had died, many of the officials at the scene did start to tremble with their legs and cold sweat on their foreheads. Even Yang Yushui, who was far away in the Las Vegas casino in country M, was frightened and threw away the chips in his hand and hurried back to the hotel.

Yang Yushui is just 50 years old this year, because he has made a fortune digging coal in recent years, he is willing to eat and drink, and he is willing to spend money on maintenance, and his health is not bad, and he is much younger than his actual age from the face. In the casino just now, Yang Yushui's mobile phone received several messages one after another, telling him that there was a major accident in the coal mine and asking him to find a way to deal with it as soon as possible.

How much money is lost is not a problem, the key is that something has just happened in Province X, and this time it is not good to deal with people, and more money cannot buy life and freedom, this is the problem that Yang Yushui is worried about. Damn it! If you can't do it, you won't go back, see what you can do to me? Yang Yushui has passports from several countries in his hand, but he really can't do it, so he doesn't plan to go back, and looks for an opportunity to get his wife and children out again, anyway, the money in his hand is enough to spend a few lifetimes.

But within half an hour, Yang Yushui changed his mind and decided to leave for China immediately, because several banks called him and informed him that his bank accounts had been seized and frozen by the court and the police. Yang Yushui regrets this, regrets not transferring the funds abroad, but who knew that this kind of thing would happen? That's tens of billions of funds, Yang Yushui feels pain when he thinks about it. Damn it! It's a big deal to spend more money, I don't believe it, and there are officials who don't like money!

Yang Yushui's fortune has only been more than ten years ago, and he was a little-known street gangster before. After the reform and opening up, he contracted a small coal kiln in the village without much education, and accumulated his first pot of gold in a few years.

With more money in his hand, he began to befriend the town secretary and mayor, spent a little money, and got a village chief to do it. Don't look at the village officials, but they can also contact many county officials, so Yang Yushui adopted the method of emotional opening and money to make himself a ghostwriter of the county people's congress, and he also hooked up with the county magistrate.

At that time, the Jiapigou state-owned coal mine was losing money year after year, and the financial resources of Hohhot were no longer able to maintain the survival of the coal mine, and the coal mine was facing bankruptcy and closure. Yang Yushui saw the opportunity, dredged up the relationship between the leaders of Hohwa City through the county magistrate, and bought the coal mine for a cabbage price of 50 million yuan and became his own coal mine.

It is also time for Yang Yushui to make a fortune, not long after he bought the coal mine, the price of coal in the country began to rise like crazy, and in just a few years, Yang Yushui became the richest man in X Province, worth more than 10 billion.

With enough money in his hand, Yang Yushui took his philosophy of life to the extreme, and he began to frequently go in and out of various departments in Hoh, throwing a lot of money. In the end, he became a deputy to the Provincial People's Congress and an outstanding entrepreneur. Even Wang Bin, then secretary of the municipal party committee, and Zhao Tiandong, the mayor, became frequent visitors to his home. It's just that Wang Bin and Zhao Tiandong had an accident, and Yang Yushui was not implicated, which is also a miracle. Of course, only Yang Yushui himself knows that he has spent tens of millions of dollars, and promised to treat Wang Bin and Zhao Tiandong's families well in the future, so that he can protect himself.

Therefore, after getting the news that his account was seized and frozen, Yang Yushui dared to return to China boldly, as long as he could do what he could do with money, he Yang Yushui was not afraid, 10 million was not good, he could take out 20 million, even 100 million he could get up.

Although Yang Yushui does not know the new secretary of the municipal party committee Kang Liancheng and the mayor Jiang Tao, Yang Yushui firmly believes that in the face of hundreds of millions of money, people will be tempted. But Yang Yushui underestimated Kang Liancheng and Jiang Tao, Kang Liancheng is a politician, money is of little use to him, and his eyes see a high black gauze hat. And Jiang Tao's situation, Yang Yushui's estimation was even more wrong, because he didn't know that Jiang Tao was now worth more than him*, and he could even beat him by several times!

Tonight, many people in Hohhot are destined to be sleepless, and they are all worried that with Yang Yushui's return to China, the political arena in Hohhot is facing a big earthquake!
