Chapter 210 Six Returns, Animals, Secondary Disasters

）

It has been more than a day and a night since the earthquake, and the collapsed houses, destroyed roads, fallen and broken trees in the city still make the city full of dilapidation.

The official rescue work has not stopped for a moment, and people who are temporarily out of trouble dare not stay in the densely built city. It is precisely because the aftershocks did not arrive as expected, which makes people even more worried.

So in the suburbs, people are divided in an orderly manner, and the open field, overlooking it, is quite a bit like watching a historical drama with the army trekking in the wild and setting up camp in miniature.

People in this "continuous camp for several miles" were properly resettled according to different groups, some were normal families, some were disaster-stricken people, or family members were missing or old, weak, lonely and helpless.

There is a group of people standing on the green grass in the distance, the one in the middle is Tang Xin's father, Tang Bin.

Yan Guang Charity's team arrived here last night. It was the first non-governmental organization that responded the fastest in China and came to help the needy. With the full cooperation with the government, tens of thousands of people have been resettled here.

The vast land, the starry night is bright, Tang Bin suddenly sighed, and said that he came to Ning Province after 20 years. He did not expect such an environment. "

Xie Wanling held Tang Bin's arm at the side without saying a word, and comforted her with actions.

Cheng Wenyue, who stood side by side with Tang Bin, had indelible sadness in his eyes, nodded and said yes, it is indeed unexpected that every year when comrades-in-arms gather, they always say that they have the opportunity to revisit the old place of Ning Province together, never imagined that we will come again Here, it will be"

Tang Xin has never been to Ning Province, but his father came here when he was young, and he has a special affection for this land.

At that time, the army had a task. Tang Bin, Cheng Wenyue, Ye Pengfei, Sun Xueli, four of them and their comrades in the same period were sent to Ning Province to carry out construction tasks. It was 20 years ago and the conditions were very difficult. Everyone did physical work during the day and had fun at night , In this isolated and desolate land at that time, there are unforgettable memories of youth.

Because he had been here when he was young, Tang Bin knew the climate here on the eve of the twelfth lunar month. When he heard the news of the earthquake, he immediately contacted the Horizon Group, borrowed four planes, and carried out a survey through the Horizon Group and the Bohai Business Association. Negotiations, winter clothing, tents, emergency supplies, etc., hundreds of member companies of the Bohai Business Association worked together to transport the supplies to Tianhai Airport in one rush, and delivered them to the airport before midnight that night. hands of those most in need.

"Sister-in-law, Uncle, Uncle Cheng, Chairman Li has brought people here, please. In addition, he spread that the funds raised by the Huaxia Charity Federation have not yet been fully received, but he hopes to start the project of rebuilding homes for the people of Ning Province. A simple press conference to sign the contract, Chairman Li said that he hoped that Uncle would be present as one of the representatives."

The emergency medical team was matched with the relief supplies. It was Xie Kunfeng who brought Bai and the medical staff from the hospital to Ning Province, and he was the one who came from behind.

The president Li he was talking about was the president of the Huaxia Charity Federation. Over the years, with the fame of Yanguang Charity, Tang Bin's personal popularity has also reached a remarkable height. At the same time, Yanguang Charity has been included in Huaxia Charity A group member of the general association, Tang Bin was specially invited to become the honorary president, but in terms of organizational operations, Yan Guang Charity still maintains its xing.

In recent years, the public has mixed opinions on the Huaxia Charity Federation. Tang Bin has never paid attention to the unspoken rules or the negative news about the sale of donated assets. He has a clear conscience and cannot force others to do things.

"Let's not be distracted at this time, and do what we should do. The top priority is to assist the local government in Yincheng, listen to their instructions to help our compatriots, and convey to President Li. I will not go to the press conference of the signing ceremony. Yes, Kunfeng."

"Uncle, what's the matter? Tell me."

"During dinner just now, there was news from the municipal government that medical drugs seemed to be in short supply. Do you think we can provide assistance in this regard?" Don't skip words.

Xie Kunfeng immediately said that in fact, this morning, Liu Baofeng, the president of Horizon Pharmaceuticals, has prepared a large number of emergency medicines for the treatment and prevention of common diseases in autumn and winter, and they are expected to be shipped here before dark, all of which are donated free of charge.If you still have special needs, please ask Uncle Yincheng to provide a list and quantity of medicines, and Horizon will provide them first. "

"That's good, that's good"

One side was in trouble and all sides supported it. The earthquake in Ningxia affected countless hearts. Within 48 hours after the earthquake, the selfless assistance from the government and enthusiastic groups from all walks of life minimized the harm caused by the disaster.

On the expressway leading to Yincheng in the early morning, Tang Xin sat in the back seat of a Santana car. It was supposed to be a transport plane that flew directly to the military area of ​​Ning Province, but it made an emergency landing at a civilian airport in Ning Province due to the weather. He changed to a Car to Silver City.

Because the government has given a pass, on this road with traffic to maintain order, the road to Yincheng is still smooth, while on the other side of the reverse road, the passing road is completely blocked, driving to other places to evacuate There are still many people, but they have brought huge pressure on the traffic virtually. Some sections of the railway that were destroyed by the earthquake are being repaired day and night. Although there are many planes in the sky, there are not many airstrips available for landing. Also have to line up.

After getting off the expressway and already entering the edge of Yincheng, Tang Xin closed his eyes and rested his mind, his lips were a little dry, it was caused by the weather, it was too dry and he was not used to it yet.

Xia Qingying sat beside him and lay down in front of the car window, looking at the shocking scene of the city, rare landslides, collapsed houses, and reinforced concrete stones scattered on the ground after collapsed buildings

She just looked at this scene, and her eyes couldn't help getting moist. It was hard to imagine how horrific the scene would be at the moment of the disaster.

The reason why Tang Xin didn't go to see it was largely because he didn't want to recall the memories of two days ago.

Sometimes, facing the tragedy directly does not sharpen the mind, but instead makes people sink into it and be swallowed up by negative emotions.

He Min drove the car and saw Tang Xin's chapped lips through the rearview mirror. She was a little annoyed, and didn't prepare water when she came.

When the car drove to a crowded area, He Min saw a large number of goods on the side of the road for sale, including piles of mineral water. She stopped the car and turned to Tang Xin and said, "I'm going to buy two bottles." water. "

Tang Xin nodded. They came in a hurry. They had rested last night until this morning. They really haven't drank any water. They need to replenish water.

"Tang Xin, how long will it take for this place to recover?"

Xia Qingying secretly wiped away her tears with her back turned to Tang Xin, and asked quietly.

"Rome was not built in a day, but it takes one day to destroy Rome. Construction is always more difficult than destruction. Human beings have never been smooth sailing, but we can overcome all difficulties with wisdom and will."

Tang Xin opened his eyes and reached out to hold her hand.

Xia Qingying tried to squeeze out a smile for Tang Xin, but when she turned her head, her expression was shocked, and she looked at He Min who was going to buy water by the roadside in surprise.

She actually took out a saber and laid it across the peddler's neck!

Tang Xin followed her gaze and realized He Min's abnormal state.

He immediately opened the door to get out of the car and walked quickly.

He Min's actions attracted everyone to watch, her expression was a little ferocious, she gritted her teeth and looked at this small businessman who seemed to be less than 20 years old.

At this moment, the other party was silent like a cicada and begged for mercy, and offered to send two bottles of water to He Min, but they couldn't make He Min put away the knife.

Tang Xin gently clasped He Min's wrist, pressed down her hand, took the saber from her hand, then faced He Min and asked softly, what did he do? "

"How much do you sell for a bottle of water? Twenty! Animals that are not as good as pigs and dogs!"

Although He Min obeyed Tang Xin and the saber was taken away, she still stared at the peddler who scratched his neck and backed a few steps and dared not look at her with eyes like a wild wolf.

Tang Xin looked back and saw that there were many hawkers on the side of the road, including food, drink, clothing, and useful items, basically all of which were daily necessities for ordinary people.

He scanned the surrounding crowd again. From the expressions on the faces of these people, Tang Xin could easily see that this peddler had accomplices hiding in the crowd, and there were quite a few of them. He Min probably had the knife on him as soon as He Min made a move. Frightened by his actions, he didn't dare to act rashly.

Tang Xin sighed lightly, all beings are in various states, he is not a saint, how can he ask others to be noble?

To say that many years ago there was the crime of speculation, and the boss of Vanke also engaged in the business of buying and selling to obtain huge profits. Even if the hawker has a business license now, it may be illegal to sell goods at a price that is more than ten times the price set by the Price Bureau.

But at this time, Tang Xin really didn't have the mood and time to meddle in such nosy matters.

Instead of reporting to the police to trouble the police comrades who are busy saving people, he would rather contact more resources and let people outside bring in more supplies, so as not to give such unscrupulous peddlers a chance to speculate.

Tang Xin took the 50-yuan banknote she was holding from the other hand of He Min, turned around and put the banknote on the table in front of the hawker with a calm expression, and then picked up two bundles of integrated packaging from the ground next to it. Mineral water is packed in twelve bottles, a total of 24 bottles, and 50 yuan is very reasonable.

This is not mineral water imported from foreign countries. A bottle dares to sell for a sky-high price of six or seven yuan.

Holding mineral water in his left and right hands, Tang Xin said to He Min to go, it was not worth getting angry. "

He Min suppressed the anger in his heart, finally cast a cold glance at the peddler, and followed Tang Xin back to the car.

Back in the car, Tang Xin cut open the plastic packaging outside the mineral water with a saber, took out two bottles and opened them, gave each of them a bottle, and finally took a bottle and gulped half a bottle into his stomach.

He Min drove on the road again, and they planned to meet Yan Guangxi's people first.

Tang Xin suddenly asked about the specific situation here in the car, do you understand? "Do not skip words.

He was asking He Min.

Before He Min was in Tianhai, he had arranged for security personnel to escort supplies to Ning Province. Coupled with his family background, he was able to understand many actual situations that were not officially announced by the authorities.

She nodded pessimistically.

"A bottle of water can sell for 20 yuan, which means that there is a shortage of water here. Where is the source of the problem?"

"The earthquake in Ning Province, the manifestation of secondary disasters is very obvious. Bacterial pollution spreads very fast. In addition, the river is polluted, the urban water system collapses, and the water quality cannot be guaranteed. This is the situation in Yincheng. The region was already under water stress, and now, the situation is even more severe."

He Min's words made Tang Xin frown.

He can imagine the adverse effects of secondary disasters after the earthquake, especially in the destroyed buildings, if there are chemical plants, the water supply, power supply and gas supply system are destroyed, and the large-scale death of natural organisms in this area may cause plagues and viruses, dead bodies Pollution is even more difficult to prevent.

He laughed at himself, even if he was mentally prepared, he was still too subjective. The actual situation was much more serious than he imagined.
