Early morning.

The money boss of the pig farm was uncomfortable and couldn't get up.

Since last night, Boss Qian has felt chills, sneezing, and runny nose, measured his body temperature of 39.2 °C, and took cold medicine and lay on the bed.

I woke up many times in one night, and I was dazed until the pig farm workers came knocking on the door in the morning.

The wooden door of the pig farm dormitory was knocked on by the worker Xiao Li, "Boss, are you up?" Something went wrong. ”

Worker Xiao Li's voice was anxious, and Boss Qian, who was lying on the bed and couldn't get up, was even more anxious.

"Boss, something happened, come out and see, there is a sow in the pigsty that has died, and there are many pigs who are not in the right state."

Hearing that there was a dead pig, Boss Qian was excited, and he was scared into a cold sweat, and his originally confused head instantly sobered up.

"Come in......" Boss Qian's voice was hoarse.

The door was not locked, and the worker Xiao Li pushed the door in, but was startled by the appearance of Boss Qian.

The man on the bed was pale, his eyes were blood-red, and he was struggling to get up and put on his coat.

Worker Xiao Li hurriedly stepped forward to help, "Boss, are you sick?" Do you want to go to the hospital? ”

"No, it's just a cold, you help me go to the pigsty."

Worker Xiao Li helped Boss Qian to the pigsty where the dead pig was found, and there were already two workers in the pigsty checking the situation.

Boss Qian walked into the pigsty and found the big white sow lying in the corner of the pigsty, her tongue turned out, dark red with foam blood flowing out, and blood flowing out of her nostrils.

The dead pig's body is not yet stiff, and it seems that it has just died.

Then check the other pigs in the pigsty, there are also cases of salivation and runny nose.

Worker Xiao Li said nervously: "Boss, the dead one just bred with a male wild boar, do you think it will be African swine fever?" ”

Boss Qian's heart sank, and cold sweat was dripping on his head, I don't know if it was because of his illness or because of the dead pigs in the pig farm.

For African swine fever, Boss Qian still has a certain understanding.

African swine fever is a virulent infectious disease with a high incidence in the pig herd, a viral disease, with a case fatality rate of almost 100%, as long as one pig is infected, the entire pig farm will be almost wiped out.

Last year, there was an African swine fever in the pig farm in the next town, and overnight, all the pigs in the pig farm died, and the government department was alarmed, and the boss lost a lot of money and almost hanged himself in depression.

Boss Qian thought of the possible fate of his pig farm, and his heart was cold.

However, although African swine fever is severe, it only spreads between pigs and will not infect people, and it must have nothing to do with the deceased if you are sick now.

Boss Qian instructed the worker Xiao Li, "Gather all the sick pigs together, lock them in a separate pigsty, and kill them all if the signs are wrong." ”

Worker Xiao Li pointed to the dead pig lying on the ground again and asked, "What should I do if it is already dead?" ”

"As soon as the pig died, skin and gutt, sell the meat, and if there are any more dead pigs, do the same."

Worker Xiao Li was a little hesitant, it was illegal to sell dead pork.

Boss Qian saw through the doubts of the workers and assured: "African swine fever is not contagious, people will not get sick if they eat such pork, and there will be no problems if they sell these pork to nearby villages and towns, you will work hard and give you a wage increase this month." ”

With the money to be taken, and at the behest of the boss, the workers began to work.

Inspect sick pigs, classify them in captivity, dispose of dead pigs, and pack sick and dead pork......

Before Boss Qian went back to rest, he was still concerned about the wild boar caught from the deep mountains, "Xiao Li, how is the male wild boar?" ”

"I just saw it, and I also have a little runny nose, but the rest is fine, I can eat and sleep."

Boss Qian thought in his mind, if it was really African swine fever, then this male wild boar would also suffer, but it was a pity that it took so much effort to catch it from the deep mountains and old forests.

No matter what the disease is, take the medicine first.

Boss Qian instructed Xiao Li, "We still have a lot of antibiotics in our pig farm, mix them into pig food, and give them to pigs, if it is not for African swine fever, maybe it can be cured." ”

"Okay, I'll go to the warehouse and get the medicine right away."

"Well, I'll go back to sleep for a while, and come back to me if there's any situation."

Xiao Li held Boss Qian's hand, feeling that his palms were hot, Boss Qian was wearing a thick winter coat, and he was shivering with cold.

Worker Xiao Li was worried, "Boss, I see that you are very sick, really don't you go to the hospital to see?" ”

"No, I just have a cold, just take some medicine, and don't tell people outside about our pig farm, let alone let the government departments know."

Boss Qian still remembers that when African swine fever broke out in the next town last year, all the pigs in the entire pig farm were culled and buried.

Worker Xiao Li knew the boss's worries, the pig farm was finished, and his job would be lost, so he hurriedly agreed, "I know, our mouths are very tight, and we only tell the boss if there is any news." ”

After Boss Qian returned to the house to rest, Xiao Li and the other two workers were busy, going to the pigsty every hour to check the situation.

Pigs are fed and the processed dead pork is quietly sold to middlemen.

As the seconds passed, the pigs did not die one after another as expected.

The next morning, no dead pigs appeared.

This shows that it is not African swine fever.

The workers were happy, but Xiao Li was sick, and he began to have a cold and fever like Boss Qian, and the other two workers also began to have runny noses and sneezes.

Worker Xiao Li doesn't care, a small cold is a trivial matter for the life and death of the entire pig farm.

Xiao Li wanted to tell the boss the good news, came to the boss's house, and knocked on the door.

There was a knock, but no one answered.

Xiao Li felt bad, and as soon as he pushed the door, the door was pushed open, and a sour smell came to his face.

When I walked into the house, I saw that there was no one on the bed, and Boss Qian was lying on the ground, motionless, with a large pool of blood and broken glasses next to him.

It's not good, Boss Qian fell out of bed at some point, and now he is motionless.

Xiao Li hurriedly stepped forward, wanting to help the boss up, and reached out to touch it, but he was shocked into a cold sweat.

The boss lying on the ground was already cold and dead.

Xiao Li exclaimed, "Ah...... Someone, boss...... The boss is dead. ”

When the other workers heard the news, they came one after another, "Dead? Call 110 and call the police......"

——

Noon on the same day.

Yuntai Mountain Farm Pig Farm.

A cordon was pulled up around Boss Qian's dormitory, and Nan Hanfei and several police officers were doing a scene investigation.

There are forensic doctors examining corpses, and police officers taking notes of pig farm workers.

The policeman asked, "When did you find the deceased?" ”

Worker Xiao Li sneezed, woke up a handful of snot, and replied: "At about 7 o'clock this morning, I went to the boss to report to him, and I found him lying on the ground. ”

"When was the last time you saw the deceased?"

"Yesterday morning, the boss went to the pigsty with us for a turn, and at that time he was not feeling well, saying that he had a cold, and after arranging work for us, he went back to the house to rest and did not let us disturb."

"From yesterday to today, have any outsiders come to the farm?"
