Chapter 305 Crisis Situation
Lao Gao was not in the mood to compare himself with the hero at this time. He was anxious to see the situation on the scene, "How is the situation?"
Liu Yanxiang's expression seemed a little solemn, "It was a big night, I found two big woods, and then used the boards to support them from the ground to the roof."
"It's a solution, but I'm afraid that the shed will not be able to hold on as a whole, so take me to see it."
Liu Yanxiang took Lao Gao to a landslide in the bicycle garage, "Look, I just put it on like this first."
Lao Gao looked around, "No, the snow is too heavy, the beams above have been broken, I'm afraid I can't hold it anymore. Hurry up and find someone to move all the cars that were not moved out. In this way, if a landslide can be destroyed, you can reduce some losses. Move all the cars to the open space outside, and after moving them all, just find a few pieces of tarpaulin to cover them. By the way, don't you move under the trees, the trees may not be able to hold on at this time. Don't there be many houses in the bus stations in the south collapse a few days ago?"
"If it's bad, it's the New Year, and it's a lot of trouble to find people." Liu Yanxiang said it was difficult, but she soon found a few people, some of whom were still smelling alcohol. It was probably because they were having a reunion dinner when they were found by Liu Yanxiang. However, everyone cooperated very well. After all, the people in the community during the New Year still had to work overtime, and they were also considering the people in the community, so everyone had no complaints.
After a while, the cart was moved out, and the contractor of the bicycle garage also found tarpaulin and rainproof cloth, and then covered all the cars.
After solving the problem of the garage, Lao Gao rushed to join Jia Wenhao and Li Jingping again. The situation in the bearing community was much better. Lao Gao's only worry was that something happened in the yard of the old textile factory. Half of the yard has been rented by Hua Shixin. The new building built is quite solid, but there are several warehouses that are simple houses.
Lao Gao and others walked into the heavy snow. At this time, a strong wind blew again. The snow on the ground made it difficult for several people to take. They pulled their feet out with all their strength, and then stepped forward with great effort. Once again, they printed a heavy footprint on the snow. The faces of several people were blown red by the north wind, and their shoes were covered with snow. Several people were moving, so they started sweating again. The snow in the shoes melted when heated and turned into water, moistened their shoes and socks, and then stepped on the heavy snow again. Finally, they slowly frozen into ice. The feet of several people were completely numb, and they were left to support their movements with their spirit.
It just so happened that Hua Shi went to the factory to take a look, afraid that such heavy snow would happen to the factory.
"Shixin, where are you on duty?" Lao Gao moved his already hard-cold scarf from under his face so that his voice could be smoother.
"I used to be a gatekeeper. I asked him to go to the office on the first floor just now. There must be no problem with the building. I used the best materials when renovating it, so he was awakened. At most, it was easy to have problems with the simple warehouses, but there was nothing important inside. It was the Chinese New Year and it was night, so I couldn't find anyone to clean it up, so I cut off the electricity and it would collapse when the time came."
"Okay, be sure to pay attention to the personal safety of the on-duty personnel."
"Don't worry, Director Gao, people are more important than anything else, I've said it a long time ago."
After leaving the printing factory, Lao Gao looked at other houses in the old textile factory. Although there were several dangerous places, fortunately there were warehouses inside and no one lived in them.
"It should be almost done here, let's go to the firecracker booth again
After a while, no one will buy firecrackers after such heavy snow. They advised them to put down the pavilion cloth and then go home. Xiao Jia, go with Director Liu, Dayan, follow me, let's go to the pedestrian street to see if there are any wanderers or beggars. Don't find a corner to hide in the snow this day, and there will be some accidents when the time comes."
Lao Gao’s worries are reasonable. After all, the pedestrian street is a commercial street, so beggars appear from time to time. Although Lao Gao and others will find ways to resettle these people when they see them, the pedestrian street is famous and new people will appear from time to time.
Everyone took action after hearing Lao Gao's arrangements. Lao Gao and Li Jingping walked towards the pedestrian street. After walking around, Lao Gao found a wandering beggar. The man was hiding behind a billboard and blocking the wind and snow with a very worn quilt. If Lao Gao hadn't had his eyes pointed and had seen the cottage passively, others would have thought it was just some old things, but they would have thought there was someone under the quilt.
"What should I do?" Li Jingping asked Lao Gao.
Lao Gao looked at the person who was dirty, had a messy hair, and a stinky smell on his body, "Where is your home?"
"Hehe! What are you looking for me?" The man's dark face grinned an unnatural smile and replied indecisively.
"Where did you come here during the Chinese New Year?" Li Jingping raised her voice again, afraid that because the wind was strong, the other party would not be able to hear what Lao Gao said clearly.
"Hehe, it's the New Year, are you asking me to celebrate the New Year?"
"Ask you where the person is, who is looking for you to celebrate the New Year." Li Jingping made another voice.
Old Gao hurriedly grabbed her, "Don't ask, this person probably has a brain problem, and it's useless to ask if you ask. Besides, it's so heavy snow that the people in the shelter can't come. Even if you know where he is, you don't have to send the person home. If you see this person like this, it's definitely not a day or two for wandering, so you'd better find a way to settle it."
"How to resettle?" Li Jingping frowned and asked. "Who would like to keep him at this time?"
It would be easy to deal with if a normal person is there. If anyone stays at home for one night, at most, it would be fine to find a hotel to deal with it for one night. But this person is so dirty, who would like to keep such a person?
Lao Gao pondered for a moment, "Let's go and find Fang Dayong to see if he can think of a solution. You have to find a house for him to live in. It is easy to get into trouble when sleeping outside at this time."
When I walked to Fang Dayong's hotel, I found that the hotel had already closed. Maybe it was due to heavy snow, so I closed the door in advance.
"What should we do? Why don't we knock on the door and take a look?" Liu Yanxiang asked Lao Gao again.
"Stop knocking, Fang Dayong is definitely not in the store, and the waiters in the store can't make the decision. Don't cause trouble for them. Let's go to the police station and see if they can think of a solution."
On the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, Fang Yu, as the director, must be the one on duty. He happened to be there, so he decided to keep the person and asked the police officer on duty to take someone to take a shower, then found a set of old clothes to change the man, and also found a long chair in the interrogation room as a bed, allowing him to sleep well inside, and waited for the snow to stop and the shelter to pick him up.
After this arrangement, Lao Gao went back to the community to take a look. Several people took out all the tools for sweeping the snow. Lao Gao also used a few broken plywood and Mu Fang temporarily made some snowboards. It is estimated that the snow will stop tomorrow.
It is just an order, everyone must go out and work together to clear the snow.
"I guess the office will not rush to buy new snow removal tools. Let's see if the broken ones can be repaired. It will be faster when you have tools tomorrow."
While everyone was working on tools, Lao Gao also studied with everyone how to mobilize the masses tomorrow.
"The snow is so heavy, so there are many more people needed than before, so tomorrow we will try to mobilize some residents and do a good job in the logistics work. Xiao Jia will go to the opposite wholesale department tomorrow morning to buy a few boxes of mineral water. Dayan, you can also make more hot water in the community in advance. After all, in the cold weather, it is more comfortable to drink hot water."
"Okay, I'll buy water first when I get up tomorrow." Jia Wenhao immediately responded.
Li Jingping also said, "Okay, I'll do it when I get up early, and then I'll fill up all the pots that can be filled."
After everything was arranged, everyone left and went back to their homes. Today was the fifteenth day of the first lunar month. It was originally a day of reunion. The common people were eating Lantern Festival and dumplings at home and watching the party on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month. However, Lao Gao walked upstairs with heavy steps. After entering the house, his shoes were already hard and he was happy to help him take off for a long time before he took them off.
"Dad, are you falling?" Gao Xing asked, pointing at Lao Gao's torn pants.
Old Gao looked down. At this time, his whole legs were numb and he couldn't feel the pain at all. "It's okay, by the way, your mother and Xiaomei didn't fall just now, right?"
"No, we walked carefully and supported each other. We almost fell down a few times, but we all stabilized. But your legs seemed to be unreal?" Gao Xing helped Lao Gao roll up his trouser legs.
Xia Guilan immediately followed him to see Lao Gao's situation, "Have you hurt any of them? You are no longer as good as those young people."
"It's okay, it's okay, if there's something, can I go so big?"
Lao Gao couldn't feel the pain, but the truth was not the case. His legs were indeed injured, not only were they blue and purple, but they were also swollen.
"I said it's okay, it's all swollen." Xia Guilan looked at Lao Gao's legs, feeling so distressed that she almost cried.
"Mom, go find safflower oil quickly. I'll rub it for my dad. I'll have to sweep the snow tomorrow." Gao Xing works at the district government and will also sweep the snow tomorrow, so he knows that in this case, no matter how big the difficulty is, it's not a difficulty, sweeping the snow or a death order.
"The legs are like this, why are you still sweeping snow?" Xia Guilan found a medical box.
Lao Gao hurriedly comforted his wife, "My wife is fine, it will be fine tomorrow. This was swollen after falling and cold just now."
"Nonsense, it's so swollen when it's frozen, so it's going to be even more scary tomorrow." Xia Guilan is a doctor, and she still has this common sense.
"Fortunately Xiaomei and I didn't go home, so we just happened to help you rub it more. Don't be tired when you sweep the snow tomorrow." Happy poured safflower oil and rubbed it in his hands, and then began to rub Lao Gao's legs.
"Fortunately it's winter, the snow is thick. If I fell in the middle of summer, my leg would probably be broken." Lao Gao also felt that it was quite dangerous when he fell just now. He just couldn't see the road under the snow because the snow was too heavy. He happened to step into a tree pit and fell down.
