Chapter 1457 The Storm Gradually Brings People's Hearts to Light

Chapter 1457 The storm is gradually coming to people’s minds

Just when Zhong Xiaofei was leading several cadres to leave, he suddenly heard a voice behind him saying: "You guys stop..." Zhong Xiaofei turned around and saw several people standing behind him, with their trousers rolled up high. Yes, the camouflage military shoes on his feet were stained with mud.

Behind these people, there were two off-road vehicles parked at the entrance of the village.

Some of these people were wearing raincoats and some were holding umbrellas, but their clothes were probably soaked. Zhong Xiaofei knew most of the cadres in the county. Looking at the formation of these people, based on his intuition, these people might be from the city. So Zhong Xiaofei came up to him and asked with a smile: "I am Zhong Xiaofei, the mayor of Fengxian Town. Who are you..."

The middle-aged man in his forties standing behind Zhao Jianhui was Zhong Xiaozhong, the deputy mayor of Fengcheng City. When he heard that the man in front of him also had the surname Zhong, his thoughts changed, and before Zhao Jianhui could speak, he said to Zhong Xiaofei said: "This is Secretary Zhao from the province. I am Zhong Xiaozhong, the deputy mayor of Fengcheng City. What are you doing? Why are people still in this mountain den?"

When Zhong Xiaofei heard that it was actually Secretary Zhao, he was stunned for a moment. He quickly came over and explained: "Secretary Zhao, after receiving the order from the province and city, I began to mobilize the people living in low-lying areas to relocate to higher ground. But in this village. Some people are more conservative in their thinking. They said that they have lived here for most of their lives and have never seen this place flooded by heavy rains. We mobilized for a long time, but the people were unwilling to leave. It has been until now that we have moved there. There are more than a dozen households, and there are still thirty or forty households that are unwilling to leave..."

Zhao Jianhui interrupted him coldly and asked: "So you are going to give up? Is this how you implement the spirit of your superiors' instructions?"

"Secretary Zhao...it's not that we don't want to move, it's because these people have to take all their chickens, ducks, geese and dogs with them before they leave. We don't have enough cars, we only have two passenger trucks from the town government..." Zhong Xiaofei didn't say anything. After finishing, Zhao Jianhui snorted, turned around and said: "Mayor Zhong, please call now and ask people from Fengshan County to organize vehicles to come over. ... ...You and others continue to mobilize the masses and use existing resources to ask the people to leave quickly. If the bottles and cans are lost, they can be bought back, but if the lives are lost, there will be nothing. You have not seen this. Is the rain getting heavier and heavier? The wind will stop after a while, and the heavy rain will come in an instant. We don’t have much time left, so everyone is working harder..."

Now, there is no time even for criticizing people. As he spoke, Zhao Jianhui pointed at Mayor Zhong and said, "Mayor Zhong, take me to the resettlement site you selected."

Don't move people to resettlement sites and then get scolded if something happens.

After he finished speaking, he walked back and asked Zhong Xiaofei to sit in the front of the off-road vehicle and direct Lao Wang to drive to the resettlement point. When the car arrived at the resettlement site, Zhao Jianhui got out of the car holding an umbrella. When a gust of wind came, the umbrella was blown into the shape of a lotus leaf, and all the ribs turned up. I saw three rows of resettlement houses on a hillside. There was a minibus parked in the middle of the open space, and several villagers were loading things down from the minibus. Those tents are all made of canvas, with supports made of thin steel pipes inside. The tent changed shape with the wind, and the steel pipes supporting it made a creaking sound.

Zhao Jianhui threw away the umbrella in his hand, turned back and glared at Zhong Xiaofei and said: "I gave you three days, and you just built so many useless tents for the masses? No matter how strong the wind is, Everything will be swept away. How can you let the masses live there? Besides, do you have any brains? This place is close to the hillside. If there is a flash flood, , causing a mudslide, can this place be left? You guys are simply joking about the lives of those people... Go over immediately and tell those people not to unload the truck. When I came, I found a house on the roadside three or four kilometers away. In the elementary school, all the students are on vacation now, and there is no one in the school. Now we need to organize people to move all the people to that elementary school..."

As he spoke, he looked at his watch. The time on it showed that it was already six o'clock in the afternoon. The clouds in the sky were thick, but it looked like it was already night.

Zhao Jianhui didn't wait for Zhong Xiaofei to answer, and then said: "All personnel must be moved away before ten o'clock in the evening."

"Secretary Zhao, is it really difficult for us to move two cars like this?" As soon as he heard his words, Zhao Jianhui became furious. He turned around and waited for him and said angrily: "If we really can't move it, we will mobilize the masses." Go there by yourself, throw away everything, and save the lives of the people. Remember, if there is one casualty, I will send you to where you should go..."

Zhong Xiaofei's face turned red after being scolded, and he didn't bother to wipe the rain on his face. He quickly said loudly: "Secretary Zhao, we received the notice this morning. This is also a temporary arrangement. The town government only has these two minibuses." , the main reason is that the people are reluctant to leave anything, and most of their belongings cannot be exposed to the rain...I...I am not emphasizing the reason. Please rest assured, even if I die here, I will never let anything happen to the common people. …”

After saying these words, Zhong Xiaofei turned around and ran towards the minibus as if he had been beaten to death. As he ran, he shouted at the top of his lungs: "Stop unloading the car and load the things back up." , move the masses to the school at the bottom of the mountain..."

When we arrived, it was extremely difficult to drive on the short road. Zhao Jianhui also knew that what Zhong Xiaofei was talking about was the actual situation. It was simply impossible for the few people in his town and these two vehicles to move the people out. Thinking back to what Zhong Xiaofei said just now, he only received the notice this morning, but the provincial notice was issued three days ago. There must be an error somewhere in this link. Thinking again, until now, he had not seen anyone from the county. The more Zhao Jianhui thought about it, the harder he thought. He thought that the reason why Fengshan County was unwilling to spend money to resettle people in such a place must be.

"Liu Ming, call Mayor Zhong immediately and ask him to dispatch a car immediately. If you really can't find the car, contact the bus company's minibus. If they can't send the car, ask him to notify Fengshan County committee, bring all their cars over..."

Just as he was speaking, the wind and rain suddenly became violent. The rain today was really weird. There was not a single thunder or lightning, so the heavy rain mixed with the strong wind could only pour down. Zhao Jianhui was in the wind and rain. It was already soaked to the skin, and it didn’t make any difference whether I had an umbrella or not.

It seems that the focus of this transfer is still in the village below. With this small basin-like terrain, if there is a heavy rain like what Shi Yuzhang said, it won't take long for the entire village to be filled with flash floods.

Liu Ming "kindly" advised: "Secretary, you'd better go back to the car, be careful of catching a cold..."

Zhao Jianhui shook his head and pointed at Fengwowo Village, which was already desolate in the wind and rain: "They have all turned around, so I can rest assured. Don't worry, I will be fine. Tell Lao Wang, this car is also Go and help the masses with things. It’s worth tens of thousands of dollars to break your home. The people are reluctant to leave. If you don’t take the things away for them, they won’t be able to leave... Come on, let’s go down there and take a look..."

When he walked back to the village, Zhong Xiaozhong was standing under the eaves, shouting extremely angrily into the phone: Liang Daoguang, you don't want to be this secretary anymore, do you? I'm warning you, I don't care what the situation is over there right now. Secretary Zhao of the Provincial Party Committee is in Fengwowo Village right now. It's up to you whether you want to come over or not..."

There is really no way, this Liang Daoguang is He Zhaohong's person, and he usually does not take him seriously as the deputy mayor of the extraordinary committee in charge of science, education, culture, health, meteorology, earthquake and other indifferent departments.

This village is not big, with only fifty or sixty households in total. Most of the young people have gone out to work, leaving behind only the old, sick and disabled. There are not many people who need to move out, but there are a lot of things. Dozens of families have their belongings. The older the people are, the better they know how to live. These people are willing to throw away everything.

After putting down the phone, Zhong Xiaozhong raised his head with a gloomy face, and suddenly saw that Zhao Jianhui had already occupied him. He opened his mouth to say something, but nothing came out.

Zhao Jianhui looked at him and asked in a low voice: "What's going on?"

"It's nothing, Secretary Zhao. Secretary Liang from Fengshan County is having dinner with an important client in the hotel right now. He was a little drunk and said he couldn't come. I told you that you are here. I think he will be here soon..."

Zhong Xiaozhong was also very aggrieved, but in order to take the overall situation into consideration, he still told Liang Daoguang's matter very 'tactfully'. He neither wanted to fan the flames and make Zhao Jianhui lose his temper, nor did he want to spare the man who dared not put himself in the situation lightly. Secretary Liang in his eyes. However, when it comes to matters that have risen to the municipal level, it is best if you don't mention them, lest someone accuses you of snitching and adding insult to injury.

Zhao Jianhui's expression just changed slightly, and he said calmly: "I know, don't stay here. Take a few people to the village to mobilize. The people still believe what the senior officials said. Let's mobilize separately. What's the matter? The situation will be reported at any time, and there must be no chaos..."

As he spoke, he called Liu Ming and strode into the wind and rain.

The rain was getting heavier, a gust of wind blew, and Zhao Jianhui's face was covered with rain, but his expression looked more determined. Zhao Jianhui raised his hand, gently wiped the rain off his face, and prayed silently, hoping that the rainstorm would come later.

However, no matter what, as long as I am here, I will not allow any common people to make mistakes.
