Chapter 313 Goal: Evacuate a city
Two hours later, Jiang Hua jumped off a camouflage jeep and thanked the soldiers who drove him here.
The helicopter that came with him had already flown directly to Pingchuan for rescue.
On the way over in the car, Jiang Hua found out clearly that the mudslide caused more than fifty casualties and destroyed a small village.
The injured with minor injuries were treated on site at the county hospital, while those with more serious injuries were transferred to Dujiang City.
Jiang Hua was in a hurry, and Bao Yuqian was also transferred to Dujiang City. He was worried that she was among the more seriously injured.
Pushing open the door of the ward, she saw Bao Yuqian wearing a hospital gown, leaning against the bedside, holding a book in her hand, reading quietly. The sunlight filtered through the glass window and fell on her face.
The scene looked particularly peaceful.
He breathed a long sigh of relief and felt very lucky that it was not the worst situation he imagined.
However, one of her legs was covered with a thick plaster and hung with a bandage.
"Jiang Hua, why are you here? Isn't it too soon?"
After Bao Yuqian saw clearly that the person who came in was Jiang Hua, she was very surprised and put the book on the bedside table beside her.
"I heard the news and rushed over immediately. How is your leg? Is there any injury?"
Jiang Hua walked over quickly. He was so concerned about her injury that he didn't even have time to buy condolences such as a fruit basket.
"It's just a fracture in the calf, nothing else was hurt. The doctor said that he will recover slowly after a few months of quiet rest."
Bao Yuqian kept staring at Jiang Hua, with joy hidden in her eyes.
When the mudslide happened, she thought she was almost going to die. She thought a lot in her mind, but what finally settled in her mind was Jiang Hua's shadow.
"I heard from others that you were injured trying to save others. What happened?"
After Jiang Hua entered the hospital, when he asked the nurse Bao Yuqian about the ward, he heard the nurse mention it.
"I could have run away, but there was a five-year-old girl who lived in the same house as me at the time. She stood there in shock. I hugged her and ran slower, but was hit by a rolling stone.
It reached my legs, but fortunately the villagers carried me and I was able to save my life."
Bao Yuqian talked about her near-death experience with a plain smile on her face.
"It's too risky. You were helping me donate the teaching building, and that's why you almost lost your life. It was me who hurt you."
Jiang Hua couldn't help but hold Bao Yuqian's hand.
"No matter what happens to you, don't take all the responsibility on yourself."
Bao Yuqian glanced at Jiang Hua's hand, her pretty face blushed slightly, and she let him hold her hand without withdrawing it.
"Where is the child you saved? How is she?"
After Jiang Hua calmed down, he realized that what he had just done was a bit overstepping his bounds. He took the opportunity of pouring water and let go of Bao Yuqian's hand.
"She's fine, but her mother was collecting dry firewood at the foot of the mountain and was buried directly. We didn't dare to tell her about this."
Bao Yuqian sighed quietly, with a bit of sadness between her brows.
After she arrived in Pingchuan County, she stayed with a little girl. She was a single-parent family. When she was two years old, her father was sentenced to seven years for stealing cattle. He is still in prison.
Although the girl had just turned five, she was very precocious and sensible. She still remembered that when she first came here, she accidentally caught a cold because of a sudden change in the weather, and she was lying in bed with a high fever.
The girl's mother ran to the county and asked a doctor to come and treat her. At that time, she and the little girl were the only two people at home.
The little girl made a fire by herself, stood on the small bench, and used the large iron pot on the stove to boil water and cook a bowl of noodles for her.
Seeing the little girl holding steaming noodles in her hands, she walked over and said softly: "Auntie, you have to eat enough to recover quickly."
Her eyes were blurred by tears at that time. She grew up in a wealthy family and had never seen such a sensible child.
"Here, drink some water, your lips are a little dry."
Jiang Hua handed Bao Yuqian the warm water he had just poured from the boiling water bottle.
"Thank you, I want to adopt that little girl, what do you think?"
Bao Yuqian's legs were still hanging and it was very inconvenient to sit up. Jiang Hua was busy adjusting the hospital bed for her.
"Although she has lost her mother, she still has a father. Why would you want to adopt her?"
Jiang Hua didn't know the situation at the little girl's home.
"Her father is still in jail."
Bao Yuqian sighed and briefly talked about the situation at the little girl's home.
"It turns out that he is also a poor child."
Jiang Hua said with some sympathy.
Given Bao Yuqian's financial situation, there is no problem in adopting a little girl, but she is usually running around, so she may not have time to take care of her.
"How's it going at Hope Elementary School?"
He put a pillow on Bao Yuqian's back to make her lean more comfortable.
"The foundation was just laid, but now there's nothing left, it's all been washed away."
This was the first time for Bao Yuqian to be taken care of by Jiang Hua so carefully, and her heart felt warm.
"I plan to rebuild Hope Primary School here in Dujiang City, turn it into a boarding school, and move all the children here."
Jiang Hua suddenly spoke.
He knew that there would be a big earthquake there in eighteen years, but he couldn't say it now. If he did, he would only be regarded as a madman by others.
However, when the opportunity comes, if he does nothing, he will not be able to overcome the hurdle in his heart.
"How come you have such an idea?"
Bao Yuqian was stunned for a moment. If Jiang Hua did this, he would undoubtedly turn simple things into trouble. She couldn't understand what he was thinking.
"There are mountains all around, and the terrain is too dangerous. This mudslide is a warning."
Jiang Hua couldn't explain much.
"Your idea is correct. It's still too poor there. They say the mountains depend on the mountains. But I heard from the villagers that this kind of mudslide is not the first time. If we can relocate all the people from the nearby villages, we can
alright."
Bao Yuqian sighed casually.
Only when you have personally experienced a mudslide can you deeply feel how weak an individual is in the face of natural disasters.
This natural disaster caused the death of six villagers, including the little girl's mother. The person who was talking and laughing yesterday suddenly turned into a cold corpse today. This made her very uncomfortable and difficult.
accept.
"I came here this time to discuss cooperation with Shancheng Jialin Motorcycle Factory. I plan to build a branch factory in Chengdu. I will recruit a group of workers from Pingchuan every year and strive to build Chengdu into a...
The largest motorcycle production base in China.”
Jiang Hua originally had no such idea.
But at the right time, he wanted to do something for the people in Pingchuan, so he directly predicted that a disaster would happen there in the future, but no one would believe it.
He could only adopt a clumsy way to build a large-scale motorcycle production base in Chengdu, use targeted recruitment methods to attract people from Pingchuan in batches, and let them leave and settle elsewhere.
Now that there are still more than ten years before the disaster occurs, he plans to use the ant method of moving, step by step, and save as many people as possible even if he cannot evacuate the small county.
Bao Yuqian didn't know what Jiang Hua was thinking. She thought that Jiang Hua did this entirely because of her emotion. She wanted to relocate the villagers at the foot of the mountain, so Jiang Hua directly invested and built a factory in Rongcheng, which moved her very much.
"You didn't originally plan to build a factory in Chengdu, right?"
Bao Yuqian suddenly asked softly.
The other party was inspecting a mountain city. Even if they wanted to build a branch factory, there was no reason to go far away.
"No, Chengdu has good geographical conditions. I have always had this idea."
Jiang Hua was stunned for a moment and answered with a smile.
