Chapter 293 Danger!
Chapter 293 Danger!
Mrs. He quickly called over to He Zhao who was busy: "Silly boy, didn't you watch the news? The Wen family's factory was flooded, what are you still doing here?"
"Grandma, I'm busy with company matters. I'm not busy doing anything else." He Zhao also wanted to help the Wen family, so he said, "Then I'll send some people over to help."
As he said this, he was about to take out his cell phone to make a call.
Old Madam He held him down and said, "How can you ask someone to go? You have to go in person to show your sincerity!"
"Me?" He Zhao was a little confused. "Grandma, I have no experience in dealing with this kind of thing. Besides, the rescuers will surely be here soon, and I won't know what to do if I go there."
"You have forgotten everything I told you before!" Mrs. He said with a look of hatred on her face, "You will know what to do if you listen to others' instructions. It's not the same thing, you didn't even go there Go, it’s another story. Ning Yatou will definitely get angry if this happens. If you don’t go over and help my future granddaughter-in-law, you’re still being so stubborn!”
"Okay, grandma, I'll just listen to you."
Old Mrs. He always kept her word. He Zhao had no choice but to temporarily put aside the work at hand and drive to the eastern suburbs.
"Remember don't be lazy and help more!" Before leaving, Mrs. He reminded worriedly.
……
Ning Xi took the necessary supplies and drove all the way. It rained heavily and the road was muddy. When she was about to reach the suburbs, the vehicle suddenly slowed down and drove very laggy.
She immediately got out of the car with an umbrella to check, and found that a large piece of lush tree branch had been caught in the wheel, which was why the vehicle had difficulty moving forward.
A kind passerby saw that she was having difficulty handling the situation on her own and came over to help.
Ning Xi was very grateful: "Brother, thank you so much."
The eldest brother waved his hand and left: "It's a trivial matter. I can't thank you for anything. It's not easy for a girl like you to go out in this weather."
Ning Xi couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
Just as he was about to get back into the car, he heard two people talking not far away.
The two people's outfits were really too eye-catching. They were already holding umbrellas and wearing caps and masks.
"What else? Open the gate...don't worry..."
The two of them walked farther and farther away, and their voices gradually became quieter and became completely inaudible.
Ning Xi didn't want to think too much, closed the car door and set off again.
When she arrived at the eastern suburbs, the scene was even more tragic than she had imagined.
The water outside is already knee-high, and since the factory is on a low ground, the situation will only get worse. A temporary shelter had been set up at the scene to treat the wounded. The ambulance crews were working in groups. One of the team leaders was giving instructions in an orderly manner. Ning Xi was about to go over and ask, but someone stepped in first.
He Zhao asked: "Hello, Captain, what is the situation in the factory?"
Captain Li adjusted his hat and said seriously, "This is a large factory. We started evacuating people as soon as we arrived, but there are still 20 to 30 employees trapped inside."
He paused and looked at He Zhao: "But young man, you are...?"
"I am a friend of the owner of this factory and I came here to help."
Ning Xi came over and asked in surprise: "He Zhao, why are you here?"
He Zhao was stunned.
I didn’t expect Ning Xi to come to the scene in person. It seems that it was right to listen to grandma!
"I heard something happened at the factory, so I came to see if there was anything I could do to help."
Captain Li asked: "Who is this lady?"
"I am the person in charge of this factory, captain. Please let me join your rescue efforts."
"But this is a disaster site after all, and there are many uncertainties. For safety reasons, it is best for unauthorized personnel not to enter casually."
Ning Xi immediately said: "I am a medical student and can provide first aid to the wounded on site. This factory is really important to me and I have to go."
He Zhao also said quickly: "Yes, yes, I know a little bit!"
In principle, this is not allowed, but after hearing what Ning Xi said, Captain Li softened his attitude.
"Okay, but you have to go in with our members and don't get separated."
Ning Xi and He Zhao handed the supplies they brought under the shelter. They both put on life jackets, carried life buoys, and followed the rescuer Huang Yong into the factory.
The factory was already in a mess. The further we went into the factory, the higher the water level became, almost up to our waists. Tables, chairs, and benches were all floating. Many unfinished machines were also completely soaked and were floating in the water, becoming obstacles.
Employees' cries and cries for help echoed.
"Help!"
"Come save me first! I can't swim--!"
Everything here has been destroyed.
For Ning Xi, the broken equipment was not a big deal; the most important thing was the lives of the employees.
Huang Yong is experienced and can determine who is most in need of rescue in the shortest time possible, and then divide them into groups for action.
He Zhao and Ning Xi used a life preserver to wrap around a woman who was almost unconscious. When she reached out and touched her, she was still breathing. Only then did the big stone in Ning Xi's heart fall to the ground.
No one has died yet.
"Don't be afraid, everyone will be rescued! Stay in your position and don't move around!"
But the cries for help still kept coming, and people were unable to think calmly under great fear.
Suddenly, a powerful voice calmed the entire audience.
"Stop crying, do you think you can get out if you cry yourself to death?!"
Everyone was startled and looked over following the voice. The person who said this was a middle-aged man with broad ears. He was hugging a pillar, but there was no look of panic on his face.
"Everyone must follow the instructions of the rescue workers. If anyone runs away, no one will care even if they die!"
These words were blunt and sharp, and really not pleasant to hear, but they were much more useful than the advice of the paramedics.
He Zhao couldn't help but be stunned: "Who is this eldest brother? He is quite capable."
Ning Xi knew him.
She once came to the factory for inspection. This was Xu Xiaolong, the workshop team leader in the factory.
Xu Xiaolong is a decent person, sometimes a little impatient, but because of his excellent work ability and being a senior employee in the factory, he enjoys great prestige among the employees.
As soon as he spoke, everyone became much more obedient.
Huang Yong thought he could finally breathe a sigh of relief, but he saw the man who had just helped to calm the situation suddenly let go and tried to walk into the inner room!
"Comrade, what are you doing? Come back quickly!!"
Ning Xi also subconsciously opened her eyes wide and said anxiously: "Old Xu, stop it!"
Xu Xiaolong turned around and said: "I have to go. I have been staying here to comfort them before, just to wait for you to come to the rescue. The production secrets in the factory are still locked in the cabinet. They are accumulated experience over decades. I must You have to get those materials out!"
"You can accumulate more experience, but you only have one life! Lao Xu, come back quickly!"
"Miss, I was doing experiments with Mr. Wen back then, and he took good care of me. It's a pity that he is such a good person, but something went wrong..." Xu Xiaolong paused, and then raised his eyes with firm eyes. , unwavering, "After I retired, I have been in this factory to pass on Mr. Wen's style and experience. Even if I die, I will keep the core of the factory!"
After saying that, he turned around and left without even looking at everyone!
