Chapter 53 Storm

Yue Wen considers himself not a noble person, let alone a person who has escaped from low-level tastes, at least not now, but he can return to the warm little home built by Ge Huixian herself and live his own small life in the muddy water of the cement factory.

I don’t want to go in again, not to mention the water is too deep and could lead to death.

Zhou Houde is a lesson learned from the past.

The Justice Bureau of Qinnan District is not far from the street where Priscilla Ge lives. As long as the secondment can be successful, then I will bring water and the days of watering your garden will really be around the corner. However, the matter has not been finally settled, and Yue Wen has not made any announcement.

, he was determined to stand on the last shift and still went to the Xinhe construction site for morning inspection every morning, but he never set foot in the cement factory again.

Zhou Houde was beaten, and after the criminal police team sent Jiang Xiaoyun and Cao Lei to investigate, they could not let it go, but nothing happened. Zhou's wife was busy taking care of Zhou Houde who woke up in the hospital, and did not return to Qinwan, and no one pursued it again.

Yesterday, under the chairmanship of Wang Jiandong, Qinwan Cement Factory issued notices of termination of labor contracts to more than a thousand employees. However, practical issues such as the placement of workers, the payment of overtime pay and wages in arrears, and the examination and treatment of silicosis workers are still unresolved.

Not mentioning it at all, the crowd was so excited that someone smashed the table on the spot...

"This looks so ugly!"

Heiba ​​suddenly raised his head, wiped his mouth, and looked blankly at Biaozi, Baobao and others who were still drinking tofu nao with their heads lowered, "What's so ugly about it?"

"I'm not talking about you, let's eat yours!" Bao Baobao scooped a spoonful of tofu from the black bowl. As Boss Yue's Four Diamonds, he is the one who knows Yue Wen's thoughts best. Yue Wen revealed it to him in private.

He was about to leave. He had also heard about the cement factory these days. He understood that Yue Wen was unwilling to do so, but he had no choice. In the face of small life and great righteousness, there are not many saints. He just wants to be a saint and pays the price

The price is too high.

"Boss, give me two more kilograms of fried dough sticks." Yue Wen waved and stuffed the fried dough sticks into his mouth.

Today is another Zhou Tuan gathering. Under the gloomy weather, the river is filled with sunshade umbrellas of various styles as far as the eye can see.

I walked along the construction site in the morning, but when I got to the Daji section, I couldn't walk any further. As usual, we sat down to have breakfast together.

"Brother Wen, I haven't rested for months. Today is July 1st. Let's give us a day off!" Biaozi dipped the fried dough sticks into the tofu. "Look at my sunburned face. I guess Xinhe has finished his transformation."

, I’m going to become a bad father-in-law too.” He and his primary school teacher are making progress very quickly. The adults of both families have already met and they are about to get engaged. These days, he attaches great importance to his image and wears a straw hat when he goes out, but he still

It's a tan that won't fade away.

"It's reported to rain today!" Silkworm Chrysalis brought another plate of pickles, "Brother Wen, take a rest for the day."

"Even if it rains, we have to go to the market," Baobao looked up at the sky, "and we have to work," he said with a smile. "Let us spend a meaningful and unforgettable festival on the construction site to welcome the party's birthday!"

"Get out of here, why don't you let people eat?" Heiba ​​was very disgusted. The news of Biaozi's engagement deeply stimulated him. Lang Jianping had been neither salty nor light these days, which made him really angry. "It fell on the floor."

Goosebumps, do you want to sweep them up and put them in your bowl to eat?"

"Forget it, I can't work today. You all follow me up the mountain." He was about to leave. The group of brothers who followed him, except for Biaozi and Baobao who were promoted, Silkworm Chrysalis and Heiba ​​were nothing.

Before leaving, he decided to suggest to Chen Jiangping that Heiba ​​and Silkworm Chrysalis should take over their duties at Jinjiling, so that they could be considered half-middle-level.

At noon, we had a meal of fennel-filled dumplings at Hu Kailing's house, and several of us drank a bottle of "Miao Dao Donkey". Heiba ​​started snoring on the kang before finishing the meal.

Outside the window, the sky was getting increasingly cloudy.

A bolt of lightning flashed across the sky, followed by several muffled thunders, waking up Yue Wen who was dozing on the bed roll.

"Get up, get up," Yue Wen called to his friends who were lying on the kang. Hei Ba was still snoring loudly. He pinched his nose with his hand. Hei Ba couldn't breathe and woke up immediately.

Came over.

"Hurry, it's raining and it's hard to walk. There's a street meeting in the afternoon."

A few people rubbed their sleepy eyes and walked out of the house. The rain had already begun to fall. Raindrops the size of copper coins hit the ground and made the car windows crackle.

As soon as the car drove out of the village, it was surrounded by rain and fog. In low speed...medium speed...high speed, the wiper in front of the window was swinging rapidly, and the window glass was still sometimes clear and sometimes blurry.

"Damn it, I haven't seen such heavy rain in years." The four wheels of the car splashed with joyful water, and Heiba ​​honked the horn excitedly.

There was no car on the newly built concrete road. Heiba's speed was very fast, causing several people to stagger around and attracting a few curses from time to time.

Through the blurred car windows, the entire Luoyan Mountain was shrouded in heavy rain. The sound of wind and rain accompanied the chaotic world, making people feel peaceful.

"Wen, where are you going?" Heiba ​​asked suddenly, "Towards the street." Yue Wen opened his eyes, but was also confused. He looked out the car window and saw a vast expanse of white surrounding him, with endless water.

, flowing down the mountain, the road cannot be seen clearly.

"Let's go, drive slowly, no matter where you go." Yue Wen tightened the armrest of the car, "Myna, drive slowly, these five lives are all in your hands."

"If you don't drive fast, I'm not married yet!" Heiba ​​muttered, a little nervous, as he might fall into the ditch. "Holy crap, this isn't driving, this is sailing!"

In the violent storm, a car swayed from side to side like a lonely boat in the flowing water all over the mountains and plains, heading down the mountain.

"Don't go back to the street, go directly to Zhou Tuan Market!" Yue Wen suddenly came to his senses.

………………………………

The water in Zhou Tuan Daji was already waist deep.

The rainwater poured down from the upstream reservoir and poured down the mountain. It came with such rapid force and turbulent momentum that many people were soaked in the water before they could move their goods.

At this time, whether people admit it or not, the consequences of occupying the flood discharge channel appear!

In the river, clothes, rice, vegetables, steamed buns, fish and shrimp, plastic bags, garbage and even banknotes... are floating everywhere. Occasionally, you can see a few goldfish swimming by, chasing the rice grains in the river.

Furong Street's "July 1st Celebration Party" ended halfway through. All government officials were dispatched. Chen Jiangping and Qiu Huiyue came to the river embankment holding umbrellas and were dumbfounded.

Pingzhou is a good place, surrounded by mountains and rivers, with a pleasant climate. There have been no major disasters in history. Floods that originally could only occur in the south did not expect that the north would also catch up.

"Let's report to the working committee and management committee." The main leaders of the two streets met briefly on the newly built embankment, and they both raised this opinion. This is no longer a problem that Furong Street can solve.

There was lightning, thunder, and rain kept falling.

In the river that stretches for more than six miles, there are cries everywhere, crying about one's own misfortune, crying about one's goods, and there are curses everywhere, cursing God, cursing one's own men, cursing one's own women...

Hundreds of government officials were like sesame seeds thrown into the sea, but it had no effect at all. Facing the merchants who had suffered heavy losses, they all lost their minds and asked them to evacuate quickly. However, the people risked their lives rather than their money, and no one was willing to listen...

By the time Liao Xiangting, Tan Wenzheng, Jiang Sheng and others rushed here, the entire Furong section of the Xin River was a vast ocean and in a mess. The water level was rising rapidly, and a large number of small traders and goods were trapped in the river.

Cai Yongjin contacted the Water Bureau on the phone and asked for a report on the rain situation. During this short period of heavy rainfall, the water level often rises at an unpredictable speed. If it is placed in a large gathering at the bottom of the river with dense crowds, if a problem occurs, the consequences will be disastrous.
