Yang Xiaotao, Wang Guodong, Zhao Chuanjun and others stood aside, the wind howled, and in the dark night, there were still people watching from a distance.
Children of some family members, wearing masks, stood at the door of the warehouse, clapping their hands, as if they were inexplicably excited when they saw the burning firecrackers.
A firecracker was lit at the gate. The security officer holding the bamboo pole covered his ears with a smile on his face.
"Mr. Yang, are you still letting me go?"
"put!"
"Let it all go."
The security officer at the door asked, and Yang Xiaotao waved his hand, "We set off firecrackers to drive away the Nian beast."
"Today, we will also drive away the flu and scare it away."
"yes."
The clerk didn't know whether he was happy or excited when he heard Yang Xiaotao said he could get rid of the flu, so he immediately ran to the door.
After a while, three bamboo poles were erected, and several more people came to help. With the wind at their backs, the three of them lit the fuses with cigarettes, and the sound of firecrackers became louder.
Not far away, there were also bursts of firecrackers.
Even if the flu is raging, we still have to celebrate the New Year.
In the workshop, a group of people carried aluminum lunch boxes, white rice bowls, and wore masks, lining up one meter apart, and stepped forward one by one to get rice.
Tonight's dumpling meal is free at the machine shop, and workers don't need meal stamps.
This also made the workers feel warm in their hearts after eating it, and they admired their factory director Xiao Yang even more.
In fact, Yang Xiaotao could leave the factory, but he did not choose to leave. Instead, he stayed in the machinery factory with everyone.
"Come, eat well and have a good rest. Tomorrow is the first day of the Lunar New Year. Let's say Happy New Year when we meet."
The eldest lady who was cooking was nagging and gave everyone a lot of dumplings.
Some family members came with their children and looked at the hot dumplings that had just come out of the pot, with happy smiles on their faces.
"Pork, there is pork."
A child looked at the 'won' dumpling stuffing and shouted with sharp eyes. An aunt beside him raised her head and said, "What a fuss, this is a machinery factory. When you grow up, behave well and enter the machinery factory. There will be trouble every day."
Eat meat.”
The half-grown boy nodded vigorously.
In the past, during the Chinese New Year, they used meat to make dumplings at home, but the fat was used to make lard, so the dumplings were basically meat foam and dregs. They were not like the dumplings here.
So big and so fragrant.
When Yang Xiaotao and Wang Guodong returned, the team was slowly advancing. Liu Lixue came to them and handed several lunch boxes to Yang Xiaotao and Wang Guodong. They took them and returned directly to the office.
In the past two days, no one has slept a wink. Today, New Year's Eve, we finished eating dumplings and went back to sleep.
When he arrived at the office, Yang Xiaotao opened his lunch box and found two cloves of peeled garlic next to it.
Yang Xiaotao smiled, "It would be great if there was soy sauce."
Then he ate the dumplings with chopsticks.
"I don't know how the courtyard is doing."
At this time, in the courtyard.
Silly Zhu hugged Qin Huairu and shouted loudly, "Someone, come quickly, come here."
At this moment, Qin Huairu's cheeks were flushed, her breathing was like a bellows, her eyes were blurred, and the cold wind after going out was even worse.
"Someone, come quickly, help."
In the Yang family, Mr. Yang was watching the Dragon Boat Festival when he heard someone shouting. He immediately picked up the wooden stick that Yang Xiaotao used to practice thrusting, opened the door and walked out.
Ran Qiuye also came out, and gradually, women and young people came out one after another to check the situation.
"Zhuzi, what's wrong?"
"Don't come here, Auntie."
Silly Zhu yelled at Auntie, and Mr. Yang had sharp eyes and immediately protected Ran Qiuye and others behind him.
Some people without masks immediately ran back into the house.
"Silly Zhu, send him to the hospital quickly."
"There is another one in the house. Mrs. Jia Zhang, Xiao Dang and Xiao Huaihua all have fever."
Silly Zhu shouted, and the people around him immediately shuddered.
"He Yuzhu, what's going on? How could a good person get infected?"
Ran Qiuye took two steps forward, but was pulled back by Mr. Yang.
This is not the time to act like a hero. She has three children behind her. If Yang Xiaotao cannot come back, the family will have to rely on Ran Qiuye.
"I don't know. Stop talking and hurry up and save people."
"Help, let's take them to the hospital."
Shazhu said as he hugged Qin Huairu and walked out.
"stop."
"You are alone. It will be too late when you send it away."
Ran Qiuye shouted, and Shazhu stopped, "What do you think we should do? I tell you, if anything happens to Qin Huairu, I, I will never be done with you."
"Get out of here, what did you say?"
Mr. Yang was not used to fooling around. He raised the wooden stick in his hand and Wangcai and the black girl rushed out beside him.
Silly Zhu was so frightened that he took two steps back.
The eldest mother quickly stepped forward to smooth things over, "Silly Zhu is careless and is talking nonsense. Don't take it seriously. Let's save people first."
"Qiuye, you make up your mind."
Ran Qiuye nodded, "Xiaohu, get on your bicycle, put on a mask, go to the street office to find the person on duty, tell them the situation in the hospital, and ask them to contact the hospital to pick up the patient."
Wang Xiaohu responded, and Wang Dashan's family specifically asked, "Hurry up, don't delay."
"other people."
Ran Qiuye glanced in the direction of Ran's house, "Everyone, take out the disinfectant and alcohol from home and spray it in the courtyard."
"Also, adults and children are all wearing masks, so don't be careless."
Everyone immediately took action, wearing masks and starting to spray disinfectant around.
An hour later, a truck stopped at the entrance of the courtyard.
Director Wang personally brought people over and picked up the Jia family, Shazhu and Auntie in the car.
As for the others, they will stay in the courtyard for observation for the time being.
After the car left, the medical staff who stayed behind began to clean up and look for the source of infection.
When it got slightly brighter, the medical staff finally found a feather in the corner next to the stove.
Immediately, the medical staff concluded that the Jia family had eaten the bird and had become infected.
As soon as the news came out, the whole courtyard was full of curses, mentally cursing the Jia family for being ignorant and like rat shit.
However, everyone still listened to the medical staff's instructions, stayed at home, and immediately reported any situation to the staff on duty outside the door.
...
"Mr. Yang, happy New Year."
When Yang Xiaotao left the office, he saw Liu Lixue at the door holding a lunch box, "Good morning, it's a good Chinese New Year."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "I saw that you didn't get up, so I made you breakfast."
As Liu Lixue said, Yang Xiaotao took the lunch box and said, "Thank you."
"You're welcome. I'm going to deliver a lunch box to Xiao'e. You're busy."
"good."
Putting the lunch box on the table, Yang Xiaotao did not move, but went out.
"Mr. Yang, happy New Year."
"happy New Year."
"Mr. Yang, happy New Year."
"You too, have a great New Year."
Along the way, Yang Xiaotao finally came to the isolation area after receiving continuous blessings from people.
"Mr. Yang, three people were seriously ill last night. Eighteen new staff were added, including twelve medical staff."
Stationmaster Hu said with a heavy heart, "If we can't find a way, the lives of these seriously ill people will be in danger."
Yang Xiaotao nodded, "I have told my superiors, but there is still no news."
"Those who are seriously ill will be treated with all our strength. Those who die will be counted as work-related injuries."
Stationmaster Hu said sadly that Yang Xiaotao had no choice but to do what he could.
Fortunately, the credibility of the machinery factory is still there, everyone supports the work, and nothing happened.
"Tell everyone to bear with it a little longer."
"I believe things will turn around soon."
Yang Xiaotao said helplessly.
In fact, there are many medicines in his dimension, all of which are Western medicines from later generations, but he dare not take them out and eat them randomly.
What should you do if you eat someone to death?
Let’s wait for the doctors of this era to make up their minds.
Webmaster Hu didn't answer either.
The two of them looked at the depressing warehouse and could only wait.
But this wait lasted for five days.
The sixth day of the first lunar month.
Yang Xiaotao touched his long beard, his face looked haggard.
Nowadays, the pressure of the entire machinery factory is on his shoulders, and he also has other things to shoulder.
Zhou Shenghong from the lumber factory collapsed, and Wang Guodong also collapsed yesterday and is still wearing a sling bottle.
Even in the patrol team, some people were tricked.
Nowadays, masks have become something that cannot be taken off. Even when eating, you have to pull them off and take a bite before putting them back on.
That is, yesterday, Yang Xiaotao asked someone to clear the mask and continue to wear it.
In addition, he asked the workers to resume production on a limited basis. He was afraid that if he continued to stay like this, people would get bored and something might happen.
The quarantined residents quarreled from time to time, and the security officers in charge of public security were also a little irritable. If they were not guided correctly, it might lead to serious consequences.
The same was true for Liu Lixue beside her, but she was working hard to read the manuscript over and over again.
"Mr. Yang, I'm ready for this song."
"Okay, let's sing."
As Yang Xiaotao spoke, Liu Lixue nodded vigorously, with even more admiration in her eyes.
After a while, the loudspeaker of the machinery factory suddenly sounded.
Then people heard Liu Lixue's voice. The busy people listened carefully, but it was a song.
"I'll give you a little heart, I'll give you a flower..."
Liu Lixue's voice was not as crisp as a girl's, but as soft as a girl's. Soon the entire machinery factory was enveloped by the sound.
Many children even sang along.
As Liu Lixue sang, she became more and more immersed in singing, and her tears flowed down.
After singing one song, when I turned around, I saw Yang Xiaotao leaning on the chair and already asleep.
"I'll give you a little heart, I'll give you a flower..."
Sing again.
Shibalipo
"Director Ji, is there any progress in the research?"
The old man's hair has turned a lot grayer again. It's already the New Year and he hasn't come up with a plan yet. Can you not be in a hurry?
"Chief, not yet."
The old man randomly pulled his hair twice with his hands and became very irritable, but he suppressed it in front of Director Ji.
"Report."
The guard outside the door came in and handed a document to the old man's hand, "Everything should be sent here."
After just one glance, the old man threw the document on the table.
Director Ji glanced at the old man and then picked up the report.
He just took a quick look and stood up suddenly.
Seeing Director Ji get up, the old man frowned and said, "What's wrong? Did you find anything?"
"We need to send someone to investigate the two people. Investigate what they ate during this period, where they were active, who they came into contact with, and what their social relationships were like..."
"be quick."
"No, Director Ji, why are you investigating these things? Aren't they just two people who recovered? Didn't you say that people are different?"
"Chief, the explanation is not clear. Now I can only treat the dead horse as a living doctor."
Director Ji gritted his teeth and said, "It's better than running around like a headless fly."
"Okay, I'll ask someone to cooperate."
The old man immediately gave the order, and soon a military vehicle drove out of the warning area and ran towards Sijiu City.
In the evening, Yang Xiaotao received a notice from the guard and a group of people came to the machinery factory to find the top leader.
After some inspection, Lou's mother was put in the car with Yang Xiaotao's comfort.
On the other side, Goudan’s mother was also taken away.
Soon, after some investigation, everyone went to Lou's house and Goudan's house to conduct a search.
When I was sent back again, it was already midnight.
At this time, in the warning area of Shibalipo, Director Ji was holding two documents and looking at them, circling them with a pen from time to time.
The old man kept walking outside, very anxious.
"Huh?"
As Director Ji said, the old man came forward, and the people around him followed suit.
"Look, this comrade's husband is Comrade Zhou Shenghong, the director of the Red Star Timber Factory."
"As for Lou Tan, her daughter is also at the Red Star Machinery Factory."
"They are all red stars. Is there some connection between them?"
The old man turned around and said, "Look for what happened at the Red Star Machinery Factory recently."
"yes."
At two o'clock in the middle of the night, under the lights, a staff officer was describing recent events at the Red Star Machinery Factory.
"stop!"
Suddenly, the old man stopped the staff, "What was the previous one?"
The staff officer took a look and said, "Red Star Chemical Factory independently produces Meihua brand soap."
Snapped
"It's actually soap. Oops."
The old man exclaimed, "Xiao Ma, do you remember saying before that there are rumors in Sijiu City that soap can cure colds?"
The guard Xiao Ma recalled briefly and nodded immediately, "Yes, there is indeed such news."
"At that time, you also said nonsense, saying that these people are superstitious and should be arrested..."
"Ahem, cough, cough, there's no need to say anything else later."
"Where are the people?"
"Human? I don't know. There is no news."
Xiao Ma said without knowing why.
The old man said awkwardly, "Director Ji, I suspect that this has something to do with the soap."
Director Ji nodded, "If there is any connection, just give me a call."
