Just when Duan Zetao was still anxious about the reorganization of the Xie Group, another thunderbolt news came that there was a huge mining disaster in the Xie Jiaao Coal Mine in Changshan City! More than 150 miners were trapped underground, their lives and deaths are unknown, the cause of the accident is unknown, and further investigation is ongoing.

No one linked the mine disaster with Xie Dongfeng's disappearance, because coal mine safety accidents are commonplace in Xishan Province, and one or two small and medium-sized safety accidents used to occur every two months.

According to the regulations of the State Administration of Work Safety, an accident that causes more than 30 deaths, or more than 100 serious injuries, or direct economic losses of more than 100 million yuan is a major accident, and must be reported to the State Council two hours after the incident, and the State Administration of Work Safety will send an investigation team to investigate the cause of the accident and hold the local chief executive accountable.

In particular, this mega mining disaster is less than a year away from the last mega mining disaster, and this alone is enough to wipe out all the efforts and achievements made by Duan Zetao in the coal mine safety supervision work, and the state has always been very strict in dealing with this kind of mega mining disaster, and the implementation is a one-vote veto system, that is, no matter how brilliant your previous achievements are, as long as a major mining disaster occurs, you will be held accountable, and the dismissal will be light, and it is very likely to face the 'double open' punishment of expulsion from the party and dismissal from public office!

After receiving the accident report, Duan Zetao's first thought was not that his career might end here, but the life safety of the more than 150 miners underground, and he immediately said solemnly to the wind and Jinbo who came to report: "Jinbo, you immediately report to the State Administration of Work Safety, I will rush to Xiejiaao Coal Mine to command the on-site rescue work, Secretary Wei will also notify you, and you must quickly contact the armed police, fire department, hospital and other relevant departments, immediately organize a rescue team, and then arrive!" ……”。

Feng Jinbo glanced at Duan Zetao, gritted his teeth and said: "Governor Duan, the situation at the scene of the accident is still unclear, maybe the situation is not so serious, it is not necessarily, don't rush to report to the State Administration of Work Safety, after all, once it is reported, there will be no room for maneuver!" ……”。

Duan Zetao turned his head suddenly, stared at Feng Jinbo with sharp eyes, and said sternly: "Comrade Jinbo, do you know what you're talking about?!" The State Administration of Work Safety has clearly stipulated that major coal mine safety accidents must be reported within 2 hours of the incident, and those who conceal and delay in reporting must be held accountable! ……”。

Feng Jinbo had never seen Duan Zetao lose such a big temper, his eyes were moist all of a sudden, and he said with red eyes: "Boss, I'm not worth it for you!" You have done so much for Xishan Province, this newspaper is up, and everything is over! ……”。

Duan Zetao waved his hand violently to interrupt Feng Jinbo's words, and said sternly: "Don't say it!" Now is not the time to think about this, saving the lives of the more than 150 miners underground is more important than anything else, as for how the superiors punish me, it is not something I want to consider, I want to be worthy of my heart! You do my instructions at once! Junlong, let's go! ......", he took Zhou Junlong out of the office without looking back.

"Alas, God doesn't have long eyes!" , Feng Jin Wavelength sighed, and hurriedly went to carry out Duan Zetao's instructions.

Duan Zetao got into his special car and sped towards Changshan City, Wei Changzheng's phone came in at this time, and his deep voice came from the microphone, "Zetao, Xishan Province is a house leak that happened to rain overnight!" You must do everything possible to save the lives of the underground miners! I'll share the responsibility with you! We are always in touch if there is any situation......".

"Secretary Wei, please rest assured, as long as there is a glimmer of hope, I will make one hundred and twenty percent efforts, and the rear will be entrusted to you! ......", Duan Zetao was moved.

When Duan Zetao rushed to the Xie Jiaao Coal Mine, Wu Zhanhui, mayor of Changshan City, and Zhang Shijie, director of the Provincial Safety Supervision Bureau, who had already arrived first, hurriedly greeted them.

"How's it going?! Is there any danger to the lives of the miners in the mine?! Has the cause of the accident been clarified?! Duan Zetao didn't bother to say hello to Wu Zhanhui and Zhang Shijie, and walked quickly towards the mouth of the mine, asking as he walked.

"Now it has been confirmed that there are a total of 156 miners underground, whether they survived is still to be confirmed, the cause of the accident is still under investigation, and now the wellhead has been completely buried, and it is impossible to open the life channel by manual excavation, I have asked the city to urgently dispatch two large excavators, and they are still ...... on the road," Wu Zhanhui said worriedly.

"Then you urge again, time is life now, where is the mine manager of Xie Jiaao Coal Mine? Call him over immediately, I want to ask him about the situation at the time of the incident, and I want to check the registration list of miners going down the mine......", Duan Zetao calmly gave one order after another.

After the disintegration of the Xie Group, Xie Jiaao Coal Mine was also affected to a certain extent, and the people were discouraged, but in order to ensure the supply of coal, it was not stopped production.

The new mine manager is called He Degang, with dark skin, and at first glance, he often works underground, but he is an honest man, he has not fully recovered from the panic of the sudden mining disaster, and he is even more trembling when he sees Duan Zetao, and his speech is stammering, "Duan... Governor Duan... Good... Good ......".

Duan Zetao couldn't bear to scold him anymore when he saw his appearance, and said in a slow tone: "Mine Chief He, the accident has happened, we can only face it together, don't be nervous, think about it, how did the accident happen?!" What's the problem?! ……”。

Seeing Duan Zetao so kind, He Degang finally didn't feel so nervous, took a deep breath, and began to tell the situation before the incident, "Since the last shutdown and rectification, the coal mine has rectified the existing safety hazards, and the previous production has been normal, when the incident happened, I was checking the registration of miners in the mine, and I heard a few muffled noises in the mine, and then like an earthquake, the whole mine shook, and I also fell, and when I woke up, I found that the entire mine had collapsed, The mouth of the mine is completely buried! ……”。
