Qi Tongwei: Sign-in relationship started during student days

Chapter 903: Relatives Who Don’t Want to Save People

The two put on raincoats and walked towards the crowd attacking the rescue line.

In the darkness, the light from the flashlight broke through the night into small pieces of different sizes.

Soon, under the guidance of the personnel in charge of martial law, they arrived at a place where sequins gathered.

"Save people! Save people!"

"My husband's been trapped for five or six hours! What are you waiting for?"

"My child is only 22 years old, we can't just bury him in there like this!"

...

Before anyone arrived, they could hear wailing and cursing, which penetrated the sound of rain.

Qi Tongwei vaguely sensed something was wrong.

Under normal circumstances, it is normal for relatives to wail in extreme grief after being buried, but what is wrong with storming the rescue site and scolding the rescuers?

Yu Xiaoxiao didn't think too much about it and started shouting through the loudspeaker.

"Everyone, please be quiet, please be quiet. I am Yu Xiaoxiao, the deputy mayor of Wenshan City. Please listen to me, listen to me!" Yu Xiaoxiao shouted several times.

The crowd seemed not to hear anything and continued to push and shout at the people who were trying to stop them.

Yu Xiaoxiao looked at Qi Tongwei awkwardly, her face slightly red. Fortunately, under the cover of the night, she found that Qi Tongwei did not notice.

Yu Xiaoxiao calmed down and shouted again: "Everyone, be quiet. Now, please allow our Beishan City Mayor Qi Tongwei, who is also the deputy commander-in-chief of this rescue, to speak to everyone!"

Yu Xiaoxiao specifically emphasized Qi Tongwei's name.

Qi Tongwei was startled, and tilted his head towards Yu Xiaoxiao, and said in a voice that they could both hear: "Hey, Xiaoxiao, are you trying to hurt me or help me?"

The first bird to stick its head out gets shot, which is never a good thing.

If the rescue is successful, you will gain both fame and honor. If the rescue is unsuccessful, the people will curse you to death.

Yu Xiaoxiao smiled bitterly, "There's nothing I can do. Look, the common people don't pay any attention to me. I thought since your name is so famous, I'd borrow it for a while."

"Can it be done?"

As soon as Qi Tongwei finished speaking, he found that the crowd, which had been noisy just now, had become much quieter, and the family members stretched their necks waiting for Qi Tongwei to speak.

Qi Tongwei was surprised when he became so famous.

Yu Xiaoxiao turned sideways and said, "Look, I'm right, right?"

"When did it happen?" Qi Tongwei asked.

"What?" Yu Xiaoxiao looked at Qi Tongwei in confusion.

"I say, when did I become so famous?"

Yu Xiaoxiao explained, "The Spring Festival Gala! Not only in Tianzhou, but even the people of Wenshan know you." She then teased, "There's even a rumor going around that you're going to be governor next year, leading the entire province to a better life."

Qi Tongwei came to his senses. He almost forgot that ordinary people in this era like to care about politics.

Beishan has changed so much, and as a young mayor, appearing in the news is as common as eating, it is hard not to recognize him.

Yu Xiaoxiao handed the speaker over and said, "Okay, come on."

Qi Tongwei smiled bitterly and shook his head. He took the loudspeaker, took a few steps forward, and began his speech in a calm and official manner: "Dear fellow villagers, the rescue work is currently underway in an orderly manner.

We will spare no effort, mobilize all available resources, and go all out to launch rescue operations to rescue your loved ones.

Please keep your faith and give us some time. I believe we will be able to overcome this sudden disaster."

The crowd began to whisper to each other, as if they were discussing something.

But before the two of them could relax, a discordant voice suddenly emerged among the relatives.

"Mayor Qi is not the mayor of Tianzhou. Can you give your all to rescue them? We have to save our own loved ones!"

"Yes, let's save ourselves!"

Encouraged by this, the crowd became restless again.

Qi Tongwei frowned slightly, feeling that the voice had ulterior motives.

However, due to the weather, Qi Tongwei did not discover the instigator immediately.

He had no choice but to continue to appease him: "I am the mayor of Beishan, but I am also the mayor of the people. No matter which city they are from, as long as they are Chinese people, I will do my best to rescue them.

In addition, you may not know that the commander-in-chief of the emergency rescue operation is the mayor of your Tianzhou City, Sha.

Even if you don't believe me, at least believe your mayor Shah."

Qi Tongwei followed suit and brought up Sha Ruijin's name.

……

Sha Ruijin looked at the increasingly heavy rain and his brows tightened even more.

The most feared thing in disaster relief is rain, which will make the rescue work exponentially more difficult, especially for underground coal mines.

The collapsed mine has become a sunken depression. All nearby water will flow into this depression and eventually enter the vertical shaft, which will further compress the survivors trapped on the underground working platform.

Moreover, such a flow is difficult to detect with the naked eye, and may seem insignificant, but in reality, when it converges below, it becomes a terrifying torrent. Even if a dozen water pumps were operating, they might not be able to keep up with the flow rate.

The problems that Sha Ruijin can discover will naturally be noticed by the expert group.

After a while, an expert came in and reported that the water level was rising very quickly and that more pumping and drainage were needed.

Sha Ruijin immediately arranged for someone to implement it.

Beishan and Wenshan brought a lot of water pumps, which are more than enough under normal circumstances.

But half an hour later, the expert came again anxiously to report that all the pumps had been used, but the water level had not dropped but was rising, and was still rising slowly.

Sha Ruijin asked: "Did the collapsed mine bring in groundwater?"

The expert said: "According to the water quality analysis, it is not groundwater, but surface water. There must be a water inlet on this mountain that we have not discovered."

Sha Ruijin looked at the map again, and the overall shape of Tianzhou Coal Mine appeared in his mind in three dimensions.

The entire Tianzhou Coal Mine is like a basin, and in this basin, there are scattered large and small Tianchi.

After simulating it in his mind, he suspected that the Tianchi Lake nearby had collapsed and the water from the Tianchi Lake had flowed into the alley.

Sha Ruijin made a prompt decision and ordered Gong Qinglian: "You take one-third of the people up the mountain to look for whirlpools and unknown water outlets. If you find any, immediately arrange for people to block them." After Gong Qinglian took the order and left, he told the experts to ask Mayor Qi for help and transfer more water pumps from Beishan.

……

At the same time, Qi Tongwei finally found several instigators in the crowd and arranged for their arrest.

Several inconspicuous people were brought before Qi Tongwei.

Qi Tongwei asked why they were inciting the people to cause trouble.

The instigators argued that they did not incite at all and that everyone was acting irrationally because they were worried about their families. They also said that Qi Tongwei was deliberately retaliating and suppressing the people, and instigated everyone to resist.

How could Qi Tongwei believe these people's nonsense? He signed a new contract for a few points just after twelve o'clock, and immediately turned on his aura to intimidate the instigators.
