Chapter 213: The Wind Fills the Building (5)
The weather changed very quickly, and suddenly the north wind was howling, and the temperature dropped by more than ten degrees at once, Fang Bin sat on the sofa, his feet stretched out in the electric oven, holding the TV remote control in his hand, and he couldn't see each station for a few minutes. Men are not like women, they will persistently chase a certain TV series. Yu'er sat on the other side, writing historical articles in the Jingchu Lecture Hall, and was also preparing to go north again at the request of CCTV and appear on the Hundred Lectures.
"Ladies and gentlemen, now broadcast the news that this station has just received!" Switching to the Jiangcheng Life Channel, the host appeared on the screen with a serious face, and the background was a raging fire.
"Not good! Where is it on fire again! Fang Bin reacted immediately and muttered. Yu'er also quickly put down the pen in her hand and sat down.
"Ladies and gentlemen, our reporter Yang Liu reported that the small commodity market on Maple Road in Jiangfeng District, a fire just broke out a few minutes ago, and a large number of fire trucks are rushing to the scene," as soon as the host's voice fell, Fang Bin was startled, and the TV screen switched to the scene, only to see the raging fire burning half of the sky, and the reporters who rushed to the scene, facing the cold north wind, wearing their hair, reported loudly to the camera: "Audience friends in front of the TV, fifteen minutes ago, a fire broke out in the small commodity market on Maple Road in Jiangfeng District, It is said that the first place where the fire broke out was in a garment store on the second floor, because there were too many goods and flammable and explosive materials piled up, and the fire broke out of control, and within five minutes, the first fire engine arrived, but the fire escape was blocked by the goods stacked by various merchants, and it was difficult to get close at once......
"Quick! Let's go and see it live! Fang Bin was shocked, and an ominous premonition struck his heart, perhaps because Maple Leaf Road and Fengjiang Road were renovated at the same time, and there were many similarities with himself, and he was destined to have many origins, so he immediately turned off the TV, pulled up Yu'er, ran downstairs quickly, drove out of the Honda car at the fastest speed, and ran towards the scene of the fire.
"Drive slowly. We're not a fire brigade, and rushing over won't work! Yu'er's heart was beating wildly, she turned around and stroked the man's waist, and reminded her repeatedly, Fang Bin just nodded, but the speed of the car did not decrease.
"Woo-woo-" One fire truck after another sped by, and in the distance, the raging fire in the small commodity market on Maple Road reflected half of the sky, and Fang Bin parked the car in the distance. Holding Yu'er's hand. Stand next to the car. I feel that my face is burning; The crackling fire, with the help of the wind, burned more and more, and dozens of fire trucks spewed dozens of water hoses. It's like sprinkling a little Mercury in a briquette oven that is burning hot, and with a "snort", it will be burned dry in an instant.
"There are too many goods piled up in the small commodity market, most of them are ready-to-wear, shoes and hats, stationery, decorative materials, hardware tires, cosmetics and food, all of which are flammable and explosive, and the wind happens to be so strong, I am afraid there is no way!" Fang Bin said worriedly, Yu'er didn't say a word, and leaned over gently. Clasp the man's hand tightly. Wave after wave of rescue personnel rushed over, and more citizens poured into the streets, facing the howling north wind, pointing at the raging fire. The scene was chaotic.
The raging fire burned for most of the night, burning Fang Bin in fear and tossing and turning, Yu'er got out of bed several times to pour tea and water for the man, hugged him tightly, and gently stroked his back with her hand to comfort him: "You are not responsible for the small commodity market, it has a lot to do with you?" Don't worry so much! ”
"Hmm!" Fang Bin sighed, "That being said, I'm afraid that the city gate will catch fire and affect the fish in the pond!" "Almost sleepless nights. finally opened his eyes and looked forward to dawn, Fang Bin did not rush to the company, and drove to the scene of the fire first. Several nearby streets are covered with dust, thick and clear, with vehicles and pedestrians walking by.
"It's miserable!" Fang Bin sat in the car and saw a huge small commodity market of more than 100,000 square meters, up to four floors, and a complete range of goods, all of which were burned by fire overnight, and everything that could be burned had been burned out, leaving only the cement walls and bare prefabricated panels, thick black smoke and cross-flowing sewage, making the once prosperous and tidy shops all over the place and filthy. Firefighters have been evacuated, and many heartbroken shopkeepers are weeping and picking up in the ashes, hoping to find something. Fang Bin wiped his face and felt faintly uneasy: not to mention that many shopkeepers suffered heavy losses in this fire, and some even went bankrupt because of it, and what was more serious was in the fire last night, according to the reporter's investigation, several shopkeepers on duty were not able to escape, which could not be concealed anyway! If you can't be appeased, once the floodgates of anger are opened, I don't know how many official hats will be drowned?
Fang Bin's worries are not unreasonable, sure enough, in the ashes, many shopkeepers scolded angrily, while gathering in twos and threes, gathering more and more, some people pointed and poked, some people cried bitterly, some people jumped to scold their mothers, any little spark can burn a skyrocketing fire. Fang Bin felt a huge danger, but he couldn't do anything, so he had to drive the car and run to the company.
"Pillow, did you go to the scene of the fire?" When I arrived at Haitian Building, the company's routine morning meeting had been completed, Xiong Sihui and sister-in-law Huang Fang had so many benefits, and never let the company shut down because of their absence, if they were late or did not come to the company, they would not wait or rely on, and take the initiative to take on the daily work of the company. Seeing Fang Bin take out the key to open the door, Xiong Sihui hurriedly followed, as if she had been waiting.
"Hmm!" Fang Bin sat on the sofa dejectedly, looking at Xiong Sihui, feeling like crying without tears: "It's burned too badly!" All the shops were burned down, and the blood and sweat of many people's lives were almost burned down! ”
"How can it burn? If you only repair it, it should go through a strict fire review? Xiong Sihui poured Fang Bin a glass of boiling water, frowned and said, "How did they do it in Jinsha Group?" Could it be that you can't cut corners? ”
"Huh?" Fang Bin suddenly remembered what Zhao Yiru had said to him that time, and said with a calm face: "He Jin Yingze is too bold!" Last time, Zhao Yiru told me that he not only cut corners, but also modified the design drawings without authorization, slimmed down the fire escape by a large circle, and the stairwell aisle also greatly reduced the occupation, increased the stalls, and made ill-gotten gains. ”
"Huh? And such a thing! Xiong Sihui's face widened: "Then I have nothing to worry about!" He, Jin Yingze, is self-inflicted, and he can't live! Naturally, there are public security and government departments looking for him! ”
"That's nature! However, Fang Bin put down the teacup, "I'm afraid that someone will make waves, our Fangda Real Estate renovation project on Fengjiang Road is bidding together with the Maple Road Small Commodity Market, and it is all under the operation of the Jiangjiang City Construction Headquarters. Fang Bin didn't say anything about it: These two projects were built after Uncle Changlin took office, so I am afraid that someone will catch this point and make a big fuss!
"What are you afraid of?" Xiong Sihui smiled with relief: "I know, in this project, you neither paid nor accepted bribes, you are innocent, do their best to investigate, what is there to worry about?" ”
"Hmm!" Fang Bin shook his head helplessly: "If you say so, I'm afraid, when the time comes, you won't be able to explain it clearly!" ”
"It's the other way around!" Xiong Sihui is stern in her words, and her face is flat: "Or is it not the world of GCD?" Could it be that you can still commit trumped-up charges? He grinned again: "Speaking of Yiru, I have a top-secret news for you!" ”
"What's the news? When did you become the head of military intelligence? Fang Bin smiled, his mood was much more relaxed, and he looked careless.
"Humph!" Xiong Sihui saw that Fang Bin was not enthusiastic, snorted in her nose, deliberately didn't say it, and couldn't hold it back, and sneered: "Yiru, I finally agreed to Xu Yang's marriage proposal!" ”
"Aha-" Fang Bin was taken aback: "Xu Yang, that kid, didn't tell me either?" When was this? ”
"Just the day before yesterday!" Xiong Sihui giggled: "Don't you talk nonsense everywhere?" Yiru told me, don't let me tell anyone! ”
"Uh-huh-" Fang Bin tried his best to purse his lips and smile, and looked at Xiong Sihui with a smile, as if to say: Aren't you not telling anyone? What did you tell me?
"What are you looking at?" Xiong Sihui's face turned red, thinking that she had "betrayed" her friend, and deliberately said with a straight face: "People are kind enough to tell you, you make fun of others!" He smiled narrowly: "Now divorced men and women have a market?" That laughing look was obviously alluding to Yu'er. Fang Bin smiled tolerantly, didn't raise the bar with her, and said with a smile: "Zhao Yiru asked you to keep it secret, could it be that she wants to elope with Xu Yang?" Is it reluctant to set up two tables of wine? ”
"Cut! You're going to elope with someone else! Speaking of the bad words of her best friend, Xiong Sihui stopped doing it, and glanced at Fang Bin with a smile: "It's not to keep it secret, right?" Yiru said that Xu Yang will come to Jiangcheng next week, and when the time comes, he will invite a few good friends to dinner, and he is not going to make a big deal, and then go on a honeymoon trip with Xu Yang! ”
"Give me back the loss!"
"And the shop!"
"Give us justice!"
"Crack down on collusion between officials and businessmen and eradicate **!"
"Find out the black hand who cut corners!"
While Fang Bin was talking to Xiong Sihui, wave after wave of shouts came from downstairs, and the two of them walked to the window at the same time, only to see a group of unkempt men and women with smoky feet, waving banners and shouting slogans, walking towards the city government.
"It's the shopkeepers of the Maple Road Small Commodities Market that were burned down!" Xiong Sihui said in a deep voice.
"Dark clouds crush the city! The life of the Sands Group is not good, and we are afraid that we will also be affected by them! Fang Bin let out a long sigh
