Burst??
"Is anyone hurt? Is there anyone on site to help? Li Yechen's brain also buzzed for a while.
"It's not clear what the specific situation is for the time being, I have sent someone over now, President Li, you have to go to the scene too." As he spoke, Li Rui hurriedly hung up the phone.
It seems that things are really in a hurry.
Li Yechen got up, "Mom, I'll go get busy first, and I won't eat at home today." โ
"Don't go? You haven't even glanced at Xiaoxi! "Mrs. Li is about to make a small cake.
"It's too late, it's too urgent." After speaking, Li Yechen reluctantly raised his head, took a deep look at the direction of the second floor, then picked up his clothes and umbrella, and turned around and left here.
Watching him leave, Mrs. Li's mood was somewhat delicate and uncomfortable.
Putting down the flour in her hand, she couldn't help but sigh faintly, as a parent, she didn't want her children to work too hard.
Mrs. Li is no exception.
The huge room suddenly fell silent, and Mrs. Li looked at the flour in her hands and the servants who were busy in the kitchen, and she sighed, "Don't do so much." โ
The servants nodded.
When Ye Yuxi woke up, it was almost night, "Why have I slept for so long?" โ
She hurriedly got up and went to the first floor, "Xiaoxi, are you awake?" Come on, come on, hurry up to dinner, I'm going to call you. Mrs. Li smiled softly, and Ye Yuxi was a little sorry, "I'm sorry Mrs. Li, I overslept." โ
"Hey, when Yechen is not so busy, I think you two should get married quickly, you always call me Mrs. Madame, you always seem too angry, I still want to hear you call me mother."
"This ......" Ye Yuxi scratched her head a little shyly.
"He just became president, things must be very busy, let him be busy with work first." Ye Yuxi compromised again and again, speaking of which, the relationship between the two is very good now, and it will be nothing after marriage.
It's just that who knew that after Li Yechen became president, he would be so busy.
"By the way, Xiaoxi, Ye Chen came back just now, but it seems that there is something in a hurry, he left again, knowing that you are sleeping, he didn't bother you." Mrs. Li was a little disappointed.
"What's wrong?"
"I don't know, I see he's in a hurry."
Ye Yuxi flipped through his mobile phone and called Li Rui, "Hey, Li Rui, where are you?" โ
"What?" When Ye Yuxi listened to Li Rui's words, she put down her mobile phone, "Mom, I have to go out, something big is going on in Nancheng." โ
"What's the matter?"
"The embankment that draws water from the East China Sea in Nancheng has burst, and I heard that a lot of people have died in the middle and lower reaches, so I hurried to the scene to take a look!" Ye Yuxi's heart was shocked, this is a big deal.
Mrs. Li was also shocked when she heard this, "Why is there no movement at all in this big event?" โ
As she spoke, she quickly turned on the TV and looked at what was playing inside.
โโฆโฆ The dam burst, the death toll has risen to nearly 10,000, and the heavy rain for several days can actually make the dam burst, whether there is something wrong behind this project, is still in the process of investigation. โ
Tens of thousands!
"Xiaoxi, I'll go with you to see, God, what's going on, how can a dam that is good on weekdays say that if it bursts, it will burst?" Mrs. Li found it unbelievable.
"This dam has been around for many years, and people repair it every year, so how can it be said that the embankment will burst?"
Mrs. Li remembered that there had been no accident with this dam for many years, and it had not rained in Nancheng before this rain, and every year the Li Group would invest a lot of money to maintain it.
Ye Yuxi naturally knew this, and the two of them went out together and headed for the direction of the dam.
On the way to the dam, the sky was overcast and the air was wet and cold, and along the way to the dam, Ye Yuxi saw the cities and villages in the middle and lower reaches, drowning in a vast ocean.
There is a rescue team in the rescue, and many people spontaneously join the scene of this rescue.
"God, this is really ......" Mrs. Li covered her mouth, her eyes turned red all of a sudden, looking at these people displaced, there were floating corpses on the water, and there was despair hidden in the ocean.
Ye Yuxi felt very suffocated, she suppressed the sadness in her heart, and wanted to see Li Yechen soon.
Soon, they came to the upstream of the dam, the dam is very wide and very high, and the scene that catches the eye is that the dam has been completely interrupted, and there are nearly hundreds of thousands of tons of water stored here, and the dam is broken, and the impact can be imagined.
Both sides of the middle and lower reaches are engaged in land and water business, both rural and urban, and such a breach of the levee is like a tsunami.
Li Yechen was at the scene guiding the rescue plan and arrangement, and Ye Yuxi stepped forward, "Yechen, you go and take charge of other more important things first, and I will coordinate the things at the scene." โ
"Xiaoxi, why are you here?"
"Something so big has happened, I can't let you face it alone." Ye Yuxi clenched Li Yechen's hand, as if he was transmitting infinite power to him.
This should be the biggest thing Li Yechen has faced since he became president.
The consequences of this incident are very serious, because nearly tens of thousands of people have died, and everyone has to pay compensation, and this compensation is not a small amount for him who has just become president.
But no one can stop natural disasters.
Li Yechen still felt that the things in front of him were more important, and he nodded, "Okay, then it's hard for you." โ
Ye Yuxi stood on the embankment, and while arranging the situation with the commander, she carefully watched the damage to the dam.
Mrs. Li followed Li Yechen's side and was also busy with things.
The scene is being carried out in an orderly manner, whether it is rescue, whether it is confirming the number of deaths, confirming the identity of the deceased, and transferring the survivors as much as possible.
"How can this good dam be broken?"
"yes, I've lived here for many years, and I haven't noticed anything wrong with this levee."
"Poor thing, so many people have died, how many families must have been destroyed in this burst?"
"yes, it's really strange that the dam is broken."
โฆโฆ
Listening to everyone's discussion, Ye Yuxi's eyes naturally fell on the broken place, although many debris had been washed downstream, Ye Yuxi still walked around the embankment.
All afternoon, she always felt that something was not quite right.
This rescue operation lasted for more than a whole week, and it took all the people to evacuate, heal and treat, and all the dead have been settled.
Repairs to the levee are also underway, and although it is still raining these days, the weather is showing signs of clearing.
Regarding the number of deaths, it has also reached the stage of compensation.
The recent questioning by the media is close to Li Yechen.
"President Li, what do you think about the dam break?"
"The masses have paid their taxes, and what are they used for? Is the annual maintenance just a matter of words? โ
"President Li, we need an explanation from you!"
Everyone is crusading against this matter, and the main point of view is, what is the use of so much money received?
Every year of maintenance, is it really maintained, or is it just talking?
has caused such a big loss, who is responsible in the end?
Is there anything to say about the breaking of the embankment.
Li Yechen has not yet thought of the best way to respond to these problems, and he knows best in his heart that this should be the second fire after he became president.
"Media friends, now President Li is conducting a comprehensive investigation into this matter, and there is a special person responsible for the maintenance of each year before, and we will carry out in-depth research on this part, and we will definitely give you a satisfactory answer."
"For the innocent people who died in this incident, President Li will give you peace of mind and explanations, please rest assured."
"Now that things are in the final stage, please be calm and wait, okay?"
Li Rui stood up and explained seriously to his media friends.
Li Yechen also said: "I will give a satisfactory answer to this matter, give me some more time, if I find that there is a problem in the maintenance, I will definitely deal with it." โ
"Please rest assured that every cent of the money paid by the masses for taxes is spent in the right place."
