Chapter 956 Human Nature Is Inherently Good
From Pingchuan to Shudu, 1500 kilometers away!
Starting at 17:00, there are vehicles joining the convoy from afar along the way.
That was the material rescue team organized by the distant supermarkets in various places after the headquarters issued an order.
In Hubei Province, another batch of vehicles joined in.
At five o'clock in the morning, most of the journey has passed.
Everyone was tired, but no one was resting or looking for a hotel.
The convoy stopped in an open space on the side of the road, and everyone gathered around the car to eat dry food and drink mineral water.
Li Dong took a sip of the mineral water bottle and stared at the sky in a daze.
Shen Qian was on the phone. A few minutes later, Shen Qian walked over wearily and said softly: "The roads in the epicenter area have not yet been opened, and troops from all over the country have rushed to support. In addition, the shopping mall, PP, and Weibo have all opened donation channels..."
Li Dong waved his hand and said, "Don't talk about this, how long will it take to reach Shudu?"
"It will take at least six or seven hours to arrive at around 12 noon."
"Let everyone rest for 20 minutes, and continue on your way later. Persevere, and I will compensate everyone when I go back."
When many people heard this, their eyes turned red and they said: "Mr. Li, this is what we should do. There is no need for compensation. If we really want to take the money, we don't feel at ease."
"That's right, Mr. Li, you and the chairman have come in person, and we still need money, so are we still human?"
"..."
Everyone rejected Li Dong's claim of compensation.
If Li Dong hadn't come, they might still have resentment.
But even Li Dong came in person, so they have nothing to complain about.
Everyone has a heart of compassion, and the Wenshan Earthquake did not know how many people suffered.
They can't do anything, and now a rescue team is organized in the distance, and everyone is willing to be a part of it.
After eating biscuits, drinking water, and taking a brief rest for a few minutes, Li Dong got up and said, "Let's go, we must arrive before 12 o'clock."
Everyone got up and got into the car one after another. In the dark night, the long motorcade continued to drive towards Sichuan.
...
At 8:30 am on the 13th, Li Dong and his party arrived in Shancheng.
Wang Yue's eyes were red, and when Li Dong's car stopped, Wang Yue stepped forward and said: "All the supplies from the mountain city have been dispatched, and we have also organized a rescue team ourselves, Mr. Li, you and Mr. Shen should stay here , I’ll just go.”
"Stop talking nonsense, and lead someone to follow."
Wang Yue sighed softly, said nothing, and went to call for the team to follow.
At this time, there are more convoys on the road.
Many people are self-organized teams, one car or two cars, three or five more cars, and everyone is heading in the same direction.
When they saw Yuanfang Group's flag and convoy, many people couldn't help but look sideways.
A convoy of more than 30 vehicles, apart from the government rescue convoy, is the most private convoy seen since the earthquake.
Looking at the heavy trucks and the full load of supplies, many people felt a slight warmth in their hearts.
When they organized the convoy rescue, many people advised them not to go now, because it is very dangerous there.
But now, even the Yuanfang Group that is not in the southwest region has arrived, and everyone can't help but strengthen their determination.
Along the way, everyone greeted each other whether they knew each other or not.
Everyone has worry and concern on their faces. At this moment, it doesn't matter how much money you have or how much supplies you have. What matters is that everyone has the same goal and the same love.
At 11:40, the convoy finally arrived in Shudu.
As soon as the huge convoy from far away arrived, it immediately attracted the attention of countless people.
In fact, the reason why it attracted so much attention was not that Li Dong and his team were huge, nor was it that everyone knew in advance that Li Dong would come.
It's school!
It has been an hour since the earthquake, and except for Wenshan, where the lifeline has not been opened, most of the other hard-hit areas have been opened up.
The earthquake was so severe that many buildings collapsed and were severely damaged.
But the front-line reporters sent back live reports, and a miracle happened in life!
In several severely affected areas,
The surrounding buildings have collapsed, but there is still a brand new school standing in it!
The 99 schools donated by Yuanfang have now become a new Noah's Ark and a refuge for everyone.
Even part of the government's temporary command organization moved into the local campus at this time.
So before Li Dong arrived, Yuanfang Group had attracted the attention of many people.
When the convoy from afar arrived, it attracted everyone's attention.
Liu Minghua called Li Dong himself. The moment he answered the phone, Liu Minghua said hoarsely, "Mr. Li, thank you!"
Li Dong's throat is also a little itchy, this is thanks from a big official in Xinjiang.
Does not contain interests, does not contain politics, sincere gratitude, he can feel it.
Li Dong paused, and said softly: "It should."
"Then I won't say more, you told the people in the distance to be safe, and now the front line is in urgent need of material reinforcements, and your people came at the right time.
I sent someone to show you the way, but part of the road was blocked.
By the way, you can call me the person in charge of your distant place in Sichuan, and I will get someone to contact you. "
Li Dong said in a deep voice: "Just contact me directly, Secretary Liu, I have arrived in Shudu."
Liu Minghua on the other side of the phone was stunned for a moment, obviously he didn't expect Li Dong to come.
You know, some rich people can't avoid it at this time. They can donate money, but they can take risks, which most people don't want.
Li Dong came with the convoy. Apparently not long after the incident happened, a rescue team was organized in the distance.
When he just got the report, he didn't know that Li Dong was there.
Liu Minghua felt a little hard to understand, and said in a hoarse voice: "Then, you stay in Shudu and leave the motorcade to us. Don't worry, no one dares to do anything else at this time!"
"Thank you, but I still want to take a look, Secretary Liu, just arrange for someone to show us the way.
You are busy with your work, I know, you are much busier than me at this time, I will pay attention here. "
"Well, be careful yourself!"
Liu Minghua didn't try to persuade him anymore, since Li Dong came in person, he must have his own insistence.
Although he didn't know what this young entrepreneur was thinking, Liu Minghua still thanked him sincerely.
Others did not know how many lives were saved by the 99 schools in the distance!
When he went to the front line and saw those reports, Liu Minghua was filled with emotion.
After hanging up the phone, an old man beside Liu Minghua said wearily, "The little guy came too?"
Liu Minghua nodded.
The old man arrived yesterday afternoon and has not rested yet.
Many people know the news that Yuanfang Group's convoy arrived just now.
After all, this is the first private rescue team of such a large scale to arrive, and the speed of arrival is not slow, even faster than the rescue team organized by Jiangbei Province.
When the news came out, many people paid attention.
The elderly are also paying attention, and the elderly also know about the donation of those schools from afar.
Because of the school, they will think of the distant place, and because of the school, they will care about the distant place.
Now that Li Dong went to Sichuan and Shu in person, even the old man was a little shocked.
Hearing Li Dong's arrival, the old man sighed slightly: "This is an entrepreneur! A Chinese entrepreneur!"
Everyone on the field was thoughtful, the old man didn't talk about the distance anymore, his cloudy eyes became sharp again, and he said seriously: "The road rescue in Wenshan continues to speed up! The road for the team must be opened within 48 hours.
Let the airborne troops continue to try and strive to airdrop the first batch of supplies as quickly as possible! "
Everyone responded one after another, and the temporary headquarters instantly became busy.
...
The capital of Shu is not the end.
The road to Wenshan is not open, so it is temporarily impossible to go there, but the vicinity of Wenshan has also been severely damaged and rescue is urgently needed.
The people in Li Dong stayed in Shudu for less than 20 minutes, and the person Liu Minghua said arrived.
Not a government official, but a soldier in uniform.
In his thirties, he has a determined face.
Seeing Li Dong, the soldier gave a solemn military salute to Li Dong.
Li Dong returned the gift in a panic. To be honest, at this moment, the most respectable soldiers in Sichuan and Sichuan are these soldiers.
I can't feel it normally, but only at this moment can I feel the bravery and fearlessness of the soldiers.
The two sides greeted each other, the soldier looked at Li Dong's car, thought for a while and said, "Mr. Li, I'm afraid it's not easy to get in with your car, why don't you take my car instead."
Li Dong looked at the off-road vehicle parked beside him, nodded and said, "That will cause you trouble."
The man in military uniform said seriously: "I should be the one to thank Mr. Li! The materials you brought have helped us a lot!
Now the roads in the Mianyang area have been opened, but the damage is serious and materials are in short supply.
Our supplies are not yet in place, and there are too many people affected by the disaster. At this time, the distance can lend a helping hand. Mr. Li's righteous deeds deserve our respect! "
Li Dong usually has a thick skin, but today he is a little embarrassed.
Without daring to continue, Li Dong got into the other party's car, nodded and said, "Major Zhang, we can leave now."
The man in military uniform also got into the car, and when he heard Li Dong calling him that, he shook his head and said, "You can just call me by my name, or comrades are also fine."
"That's fine."
Li Dong was not pretentious, and responded directly.
After that, several people did not speak.
Zhang Kaidong led the way, followed by the distant convoy, not only the distant convoy, but also several other personally organized convoys.
The scale of more than 50 vehicles is huge.
With the soldier Zhang Kaidong leading the way, the speed was much faster along the way. In fact, Zhang Kaidong had just returned from the front line.
Zhang Kaidong has done a good job in communicating with the garrison troops which way can pass.
It also saves a lot of time.
Even so, when everyone arrived in Mianyang, it was after five o'clock in the afternoon.
Devastated!
In fact, when I came, I saw some in the car.
But when they got out of the car and saw the situation at the front line, many people's eyes turned red.
Seeing Li Dong staring ahead, Zhang Kaidong said in a low voice, "Mr. Li, we can't go ahead, it's too dangerous. You and the others stay here first, and I'll go to the contact person to receive supplies."
Li Dong nodded and said: "Go and do your work, don't worry about us, we won't cause trouble for you.
However, Yuanfang prepares a rescue team of 100 people, all of whom are professionals.
Wherever you are short of manpower, just make arrangements. "
Zhang Kaidong responded and was about to leave when Li Dong suddenly said, "Can I go to a nearby school now?"
Zhang Kaidong was a little hesitant, but there is a school donated from afar nearby, not too far away.
After hesitating for a while, Zhang Kaidong said: "Yes, but it's getting dark soon, Mr. Li will come back as soon as possible."
Li Dong nodded and said, "Okay, I understand."
He knew that he could not be of much help at this time, but would easily cause trouble for everyone.
After all, he is a well-known entrepreneur and philanthropist in China, and he led a large convoy of supplies to the local rescue. If something happened to him, he would definitely be in trouble.
But looking at Li Dong is also anxious, he has confidence in the school he built, even if it is good to help.
After Zhang Kaidong left, Yuanfang greeted the team leader and asked them to accept the government's arrangement.
At this time, Li Dong was not worried about any accidents at all.
The provincial government, including the head of the central government, is on the front line at the moment. If there are still people making small moves at this time, it is simply a dream.
What's more, Li Dong didn't think that at this moment, someone really lost their humanity and did such a thing.
It is possible to rebuild after the disaster, but it is impossible at this time.
After greeting the team leader, Li Dong walked to the school with Shen Qian and Tan Yong.
Wang Yue wanted to follow behind, but Li Dong waved his hand and said, "You stay here, we'll go and have a look and come back."
"Then Mr. Shen..."
Li Dong glanced at Shen Qian, and said softly, "Shen Qian is with me."
He knew that he couldn't persuade Shen Qian.
What's more, it's all here, and Li Dong let go, there is nothing to worry about.
Along the way, from time to time, I saw soldiers in military uniforms busy around.
However, this is the area of the temporary command post, and it has been cleaned up a long time ago. Li Dong didn't see many people affected by the disaster.
Some people who were rescued from the front also evacuated to a safe area urgently.
He stopped and walked, and Li Dong helped the nurse carry a few wounded in the middle. Even though doing these things seemed insignificant, Li Dong still felt a lot better.
The school has now become a temporary rescue center.
Li Dong and Tan Yong carried a wounded person to the school, and the female nurse who followed said gratefully, "Thank you, otherwise we would not have been able to carry him here."
The two female nurses were already sweating profusely, and a lot of dirt was rubbed on their white nurse uniforms.
Li Dong nodded slightly and did not speak. He looked at Tan Yong and the other bodyguards and said, "Go out and help, you don't have to follow me."
Tan Yong and the others are all elites, and their help will have a much greater effect than Li Dong.
Tan Yong hesitated, and Shen Qian followed suit: "Old Tan, you go, there are not enough people here now, and some can help."
Before coming, although Shen Qian felt a little uncomfortable, but to be honest, she was more worried about Li Dong.
But when she arrived at the scene, Shen Qian was not in a good mood either.
There are too many wounded, and some of them are not even wounded anymore. Their dilapidated bodies show desolation.
Shen Qian spoke, Li Dong insisted, Tan Yong gritted his teeth, turned around and said to several bodyguards: "Go, let's help!"
The bodyguards couldn't bear it anymore, they are also soldiers!
Even after retiring from the army, they are still!
Seeing the busy figures outside and the tired crowd outside, although they wanted to continue protecting Li Dong, they wanted to be a part of them.
Now that Li Dong spoke, several people hurriedly took off their coats and threw them aside, and walked out of the school one after another.
