The nurse looked at Hong Lele and Liu Sheng and said:
"Hong Fu's treatment is free, so there is no need to deduct your points."
She glanced in the direction of the operating room and continued:
"The operation will probably take some time. You go over there and sit there and wait patiently."
Hong Lele and Liu Sheng were originally worried that they would not be able to pay their medical bills, but now they did not have to pay a single point, and a stone was relieved in their hearts.
But soon my heart started to rise again, and I looked in the direction of the operating room. Their eyes were full of worry.
The operation must be successful!
Liu Sheng looked at Ni Kuangkuang and the nurse and said thank you, "Thank you. If the medical expenses are not waived, we really don't know what to do."
Hong Lele also thanked you, "Thank you."
Ni Kuangda sighed, "The cause of the accident is still under investigation. Your name is Liu Sheng, right? You will go to the construction site later. The investigators there will ask you to come over and ask you to cooperate with the investigation."
When Liu Sheng heard this, he looked at Hong Lele. Hong Lele naturally understood that Uncle Liu was worried about him and wanted to accompany him.
Now that she was investigating the cause of her father's accident, she naturally hoped to find out.
So he said to Liu Sheng: "Uncle Liu, go ahead, I can do it by myself."
Liu Sheng hesitated for a few seconds, then nodded and said:
"Okay, I'll be back after I cooperate with the investigation."
"good."
Liu Sheng then hurriedly ran out of the medical clinic.
Meng Zhi saw that there was nothing going on here, so he returned to Xie Dongming and the others.
He told them what he had just seen and heard.
After hearing this, Xie Dongming said in a sad tone:
"It's better for them to have stable jobs like this. It's not that dangerous..."
Meng Zhi also felt a little emotional, because although they could get relatively high points by hunting wild animals, it was too dangerous.
In the past two months, two team members have died.
There is no chance to save him. If he is bitten by a zombie or a zombie animal, he will basically be declared dead, let alone rescue.
Xie Dongming looked at the long corridor in a daze, thinking about something. Maybe they should also consider how to transform.
.......
Trading Market East Area.
Residential living area.
Building No. 46, construction site.
All construction site construction activities in the entire residential living area were suspended, especially in Building 46, the scene of the accident, and all construction site workers came down.
After Lao Luo learned that someone fell from a height at the construction site, he immediately set up an investigation team and asked Xie Changshan, the general person in charge of the construction site, to cooperate.
The leader of the investigation team is He Feng. At this time, he is interviewing witnesses who saw Hong Fu fall next to the construction site of Building 46.
"You said you two watched him fall?" He Feng asked, looking at the two men in front of him.
"Yes, we are building in the building next door, so we happened to have a rest and have a cake down there." One of the men replied.
He Feng looked at the other person.
Another man quickly replied: "Yeah, look, this is the cake we were eating at that time. As soon as I ate half of the cake, I saw the Hongfu fall down."
As he spoke, he took out only a few tortillas left in his small bag.
There was a lot of dust on the tortilla, but he didn't care.
"Did you see how he fell?" He Feng asked.
The man who spoke first replied:
"The two of us were chatting at the time, making a bet on which building, Building 46 or Building 47 we built, would be topped out sooner, when we saw that Hong Fu, he fell straight down."
The short man nodded and said:
"Yes, Gouzi and I both saw it. I guess Hong Fu may have fainted from heatstroke. The weather is too hot."
Heatstroke?
Hefeng frowned when he heard this. Although it is September, the weather is still very hot.
As far as he knew, the workers at the construction site must be given heat-relieving medicine every day.
These heat-relieving medicines are made from honeysuckle, patchouli, peppermint and other Chinese herbal medicines. Drink a bowl every morning before going to work and a bowl at noon.
Logically speaking, heat stroke is not something you should do.
"Okay, I understand. You go ahead." He Feng asked the two of them to leave.
Then he asked several people who saw Hong Fu fall.
Tap tap tap——
Jie Changshan and Ma Dong walked over from the site of the accident in Building 46.
After an accident occurs, the reason for suspending the construction site is to first understand the cause of the accident and make adjustments to avoid it happening again.
Jie Changshan and Ma Dong just went to the location of the accident and investigated it carefully.
Generally speaking, the main causes of falls from heights on construction sites include unsafe behavior, unsafe conditions of objects, inadequate management, environmental factors, etc.
Xie Changshan and others went to conduct on-site inspections to determine whether the property was unsafe or the management was unsafe.
"How's it going? Do you see any problems?" He Feng asked quickly when he saw the two people approaching.
Xie Changshan shook his head and said: "The scaffolding is stable and not loose. The steel pipes, level, and other construction materials are all placed very reasonably."
"In addition, we checked his safety rope and found that it was not broken and can be used normally."
He Feng frowned, "You mean, Hong Fu didn't fasten his seat belt and acted in violation of regulations?"
Jie Changshan nodded and said:
"This is the only possibility. There are construction site execution standards at the construction site, and the most important thing is to wear safety ropes when working at heights. We are all required to recite the execution standard slogan loudly before starting work, and will also recite it after work. Supervisors will also
Supervision, but some workers did not fasten the safety rope in order to save trouble and find it troublesome."
"We have requested it several times, but the supervisors only verbally criticized the workers when they found out."
Hefeng suddenly raised his head and shouted to the workers in Building 46 behind him:
"Who is the person in charge of the construction site in Building 46?"
Zhang Shi trotted over, "Leader, I am."
His forehead was covered with sweat and he felt a little uneasy.
If such a safety accident occurs on the construction site he is responsible for, he will be held responsible.
"Has Hongfu ever failed to wear a seat belt before?"
Hearing this, Zhang Shi hesitated for a few seconds and then replied: "Hong Fu is fine. He always wears a seat belt, but there is something wrong with his overall condition."
"What do you mean?" Hefeng asked.
"Of the two corn tortillas given to him every day, he seems to only eat half a piece every day, and eat very little. As you know, working on a construction site is very tiring. If you don't eat more, you can't resist this kind of weight."
Physical work." Zhang Shi finished in one breath.
He felt that he was very unlucky. He was finally promoted from an ordinary level 5 personnel to a level 4 personnel, and was also promoted to a construction site supervisor. Unexpectedly, a safety accident occurred.
After Hefeng heard what Xie Changshan and Zhang Shi said, he was not in a hurry to make a judgment.
Instead, he asked Mingsheng, "Have you contacted Ni Kuangkuang? Why hasn't that Liu Sheng come yet?"
"I've been contacted. How about I go to the clinic to find him?" Mingsheng replied.
Next to him, Zhang Shi saw someone trotting over in front of him, his eyes lit up, he pointed forward and said:
"Liu Sheng is here."
I saw a strong man running over in a hurry and walking next to Jie Changshan and Zhang Shi.
"Mr. Xie, Supervisor Zhang..."
Xie Changshan said: "Liu Sheng, you cooperate with the investigators. Tell the truth about what they ask you."
"Okay." Liu Sheng looked nervously at He Feng Ming Sheng and the others pointed at by Xie Changshan.
Hefeng looked at this honest-looking worker and asked:
"It is said that when the accident happened, you were two meters away from Hongfu. Tell me what you saw and tell all the details."
Liu Sheng's eyes showed memories and he said slowly:
"After lunch, we went to the construction site together just like before. He handed me the shovel. I was building a wall at the time and didn't look at him. After a few seconds, I heard a scream.
I saw Lao Hong fall."
"Didn't he wear his seat belt when he fell?" He Feng asked.
Liu Sheng scratched his head, "I didn't pay much attention. I didn't look carefully to see if he was wearing a seat belt. Ah, by the way..."
Liu Sheng seemed to remember something, "He handed me the shovel at that time. When he came over, he didn't seem to have a seat belt on his waist."
Hearing this, He Feng roughly understood.
Illegal operation.
"You and Hong Fu live together?" He Feng asked.
"Yes, we live together."
"It's said that he only ate half or one tortilla a day at the construction site, right?"
When Liu Sheng heard him say this, he seemed to know some of the inside story.
"Sigh... It's not easy for Lao Hong to raise his daughter alone. He is very kind to his daughter, but very harsh on himself. They are given two tortillas every day on the construction site, and he eats one or half.
The rest was given to his daughter to eat. If his daughter couldn’t eat it, he saved it.”
"I told him several times, but he didn't listen. He had always done it this way before, and nothing happened. Alas..."
"Especially recently, he only eats half a tortilla every day, and the rest is given to his daughter. He said that his daughter needs to eat more as she is growing, but working on the construction site is already tiring, so he eats so much
Young, and so tired, sometimes his mental state is a little trance-like."
Sad.
He Feng and the others next to him felt somewhat sad when they heard what he said.
Xie Changshan was a little angry and helpless. He repeatedly emphasized that these workers must eat two tortillas every day, otherwise they would not be able to build.
But some workers took the tortillas and hid them instead of eating them, taking them home for their families to eat.
It's very sad because these workers also have unspeakable secrets. They endure hunger all for the sake of the people they love.
As the general person in charge of the construction site, there is nothing he can do.
Increase the food supply for construction site workers?
You must know that the daily food for construction site workers is now relatively good compared to before.
The food distribution for construction site workers at the trading market has increased, and the workers at the headquarters base will also increase.
Even if it's just one more tortilla every day, with such a huge base of workers, the pressure on new food every day is not small.
What's more, he is just the person in charge of the construction site, he can't make the decision.
Moreover, he has experienced hunger before, so after asking himself, now he can get two tortillas distributed a day, and 0.5 points are given, which is already good!
For some workers, especially those who have to support their families, especially those who have several people to support, this is definitely not enough.
However, no one can solve this problem.
Da Zhangshu Base does not do charity. Those who work get points, and those who don't work get no points.
This has always been the case. If the Da Zhangshu Base does charity and distributes food to everyone, it will attract the support of many survivors in a short period of time.
But it was beyond what the Da Zhangshu base could bear, and it took a long time.
It will definitely collapse.
Xie Changshan can also understand this.
Therefore, he has no opinions on the current system and wage distribution.
The other side.
After listening to Liu Sheng's words, He Feng frowned.
As far as he knew, the wages at the construction site were not bad. Compared with other survivors, these people on the construction site should be considered a group of people who were doing well in the trading market.
But,
How could such a tight situation arise? So he asked:
"How many points do you earn per day and how many tortillas do you give out?"
He was worried that some of them had committed corruption and deducted the points that should have been distributed.
Liu Sheng raised his head and replied: "Two tortillas are given out every day, and 0.6 points are given. We both work at high altitudes, so the points are 0.1 points more than other types of work."
Hefeng was a little confused, but it wasn't corruption.
He has also eaten this kind of tortillas. Although the taste is very average, every tortilla is very solid.
This kind of corn tortilla is about the size of an adult's palm. Although one is only about two taels, its moisture content is very low.
This kind of corn tortilla has a little more moisture than dry naan, but it is much lower than steamed buns.
This kind of corn tortilla can be boiled into half a pot of paste after soaking in water. An ordinary adult can be almost full with one corn tortilla. If you have a bigger appetite, two corn tortillas will be enough.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Especially after eating, drinking some water will still make you feel full.
Hong Fu can earn more than four corn cakes a day, which can definitely afford to support him and his daughter.
He Feng was very confused and his whole face wrinkled up.
Asked: "Why? Even if he wants to raise a daughter, it is enough for him and his daughter to each eat two tortillas a day? Why does he do this?"
Liu Sheng did not answer him immediately.
But I thought about it for a while.
After a long while, he replied:
"Maybe... I'm afraid of hunger, I'm used to being poor, I'm used to living a hard life, and now that I'm living a better life, I don't dare to be kind to myself."
"I'm used to it."
"I can actually understand him. We used to be hungry. After we had some food, we didn't dare to eat it all. We always had to save some.
When we are most miserable, we only dare to eat half a piece of food, even if it is the size of a fingernail. The remaining half will be eaten when we are about to starve to death. That is life-saving."
"We are all afraid of natural disasters. Every time there is a natural disaster, we go hungry. We have seen many people starving to death.
So here, I basically ate the food distributed at the construction site, and rarely used the remaining points to buy anything. I saved all the remaining points.
He was the same, but he lived a day with two tacos, while I lived alone with two tacos. I was alone and had no worries.
He is different. He has worries and burdens, and he is also worried that there will be no food to eat when a natural disaster occurs, so he has to save points. So now that his life is better, he does not want to treat his daughter badly, so he can only treat himself badly. "
.......
Xie Changshan, Hefeng, Mingsheng, Ma Dong and other investigators all fell silent.
Once upon a time, they all came here like this.
Xie Changshan also survived before joining the Da Zhangshu Base.
The same goes for He Feng Mingsheng and others. Before joining Wu Jianguo's special forces in the north, they struggled on the verge of life and death in the outer city and lived a precarious life.
Therefore, Liu Sheng's words resonated strongly with them.
It reminded them of the hard days in the past that they didn't want to remember.
