Chapter 1354: All One Heart
Misfortune came from the mouth, it was Grandma Gu's evaluation of Director Yan, and Zhang Zian agreed.
He walked out of the street office and looked at the bugs crawling all over the floor and walls. Some bugs had natural protective colors, and the colored outlines looked like eyes staring at him.
He suddenly remembered Vladimir's chat with him before—if the caterpillars had some kind of collective wisdom, would they be willing to be wiped out like this?
If they are unwilling, will they have some kind of resentment?
And... who will the grievance be directed at?
This is not a matter of hundreds or thousands of caterpillars. There may be tens of millions or even hundreds of millions of caterpillars in Binhai City.
So, the plan he just proposed to eliminate caterpillars, could it be the same... The disaster comes from the mouth?
Zhang Zian: "..."
"Probably not..."
He comforted himself in a low voice.
After all, with the pest plague to such an extent, even if the caterpillars had great resentment, the blame should be directed at the city leader who presided over the extermination work, not him. The principal culprit, in line with the principle that a dead fellow Daoist never dies a poor Daoist, he is willing to give this credit to the city leaders.
"What are you afraid of? It's not easy for an ant to exaggerate a country, and a mayfly to shake a tree!"
After a second thought, he straightened his back again.
So what if the caterpillars have resentment? Anyone who stands in his way of making money will be wiped out!
Don't care about your grievances!
Nothing wrong!
However, this caterpillar invasion is indeed a bit strange.
Just now he deliberately ignored a question from Grandma Gu, where did so many caterpillars come from?
Because he doesn't know the answer either.
No matter domestic or foreign, caterpillar invasion is not a new thing, but because it will not cause too bad impact, it has been drifting away from the sight of mainstream news.
But usually,
Usually only one type of caterpillar invades a place, and Binhai City seems to have been ravaged by the Allied Forces of the Eight Nations... No, the eight countries say that there are fewer, and the eighty countries are almost the same. Basically, every kind of caterpillar that can be imagined It has been found in different areas of Marina City, which is quite unusual.
So when faced with Grandma Gu's question, he couldn't answer it because it was unreasonable.
For problems that he can't understand, his approach is not to think about it, why waste his brain, leave them to smart people to think about, and he only needs to think about how to make money.
In the next few days, as the caterpillar eggs hatched one after another, the pest disaster in Binhai City reached a new height, and people's daily life was seriously affected, especially in Dongcheng District, where Qiyuan Pet Store is located. Most of the strange and hard-to-kill caterpillars are concentrated in this area.
For example, the oak moth larvae pointed out by Zhang Zian. This kind of caterpillar is simply amazing. The 63,000 poisonous hairs on each body will fall in all directions when the wind blows, and anyone who passes by will hardly be spared.
Although the poisonous hairs cannot penetrate the skin and will not be poisoned if you do not touch the caterpillar directly, but the poisonous hairs themselves contain an allergenic protein called thaumetopoein, which does not need to penetrate the skin, as long as it falls on the skin, it can Trigger allergic reactions and rashes.
The flying poisonous hairs fall into the eyes and are sucked into the lungs, causing more unbearable pain, causing asthma and blindness, and severe allergies may even cause death.
People who are not short of money think that if they don't go to work and hide at home, they won't be affected, right? But they are wrong, because they always have to buy vegetables to cook, right? Go out to buy groceries.
Even if you eat takeaway, under the attack of poisonous hairs flying all over the sky, the takeaway buddies are also severely downsizing. A takeaway ordered at noon may not be delivered in the evening-making money is important, but it cannot be exchanged for life.
The same goes for courier guys.
The major hospitals and community health centers are all full, which is much more serious than any other flu outbreak. They are all patients who have been stung by caterpillars or caused allergies, as well as people who have been injured in car accidents or accidents due to caterpillars. , There are also people who have heart attacks and miscarriages caused by being frightened by caterpillars... Doctors and nurses have all canceled their vacations and are working 24 hours a day. Even this cannot satisfy the continuous influx of patients in the hospital.
There are still many people who take their families with them and temporarily go to other places to avoid the limelight. This may be the best solution, but not everyone has this condition.
Except for the important departments that maintain the national economy and people's livelihood, the entire Binhai City is almost completely paralyzed.
On the other hand, in the artificial forest near the landfill, stray dogs maintain a normal rhythm of picking up waste because the effects of pesticides have not completely faded, and because the old men and women who rummaged through the garbage bins in the city to pick up empty bottles have not been able to do so these days. Normal work has caused a massive explosion in the number of empty bottles and cans in the landfill. The stray dogs are almost unable to pick them up. The number of bottles collected every day is several times that of usual...the only one who benefits from the pest infestation group.
It was precisely because the noise was so loud that the superiors finally paid enough attention to it.
The city leaders issued a televised speech. The whole city of Binhai was led by various enterprises, institutions and government agencies. Various private enterprises and private enterprises responded to the call one after another. The university organized volunteers to help the hardest-hit areas. Every resident contributes... The entire Binhai City has launched a vigorous action to control the pest disaster.
It is no exaggeration to say that the characteristics of socialist countries to concentrate their efforts on major tasks are fully reflected in this incident.
The Department of Chemistry of Binhai University has come up with a new type of insecticide that is in the laboratory stage. The Department of Biology where Wei Kang works has proposed a biological control method that uses smoke to carry pathogenic microorganisms to kill caterpillars. There are various ways to deal with caterpillars.
All the garrison and armed police soldiers in Binhai City were mobilized to spray pesticides and insecticides in densely forested places in Binhai City. At this time, no one cared about the impact of pesticides on the human body. They will all be criticized by thousands of people.
Brother cities sent experts to come to support, and the city government also hired foreign experts with experience in pest control to come to Binhai City to assist in the work.
Reporters from all walks of life who came with the purpose of curiosity also visited Binhai City.
The keyword "Insect disaster in Binhai City" even became a trending search on Weibo.
Because of the strong recommendation of the street office, Zhang Zian participated in several expert meetings organized by the city government, and put forward his own opinions at the meetings. He also met his old acquaintance Professor Wei Kang in the meetings—because Wei Kang was on a trip to Egypt The results have been quite fruitful, and it is finally hoped that the word "deputy" in the title will be removed.
All share the same philosophy - the infestation must be prevented from getting worse.
Caterpillars that have become overwhelming, if they are allowed to reproduce, the consequences will be disastrous.
