In order to prepare for today's meeting, Xiao Qi did not do much else in June but read several books on geology and earthquakes.

By the way, he returned to Daoyin often, and talked with his father about the development of Daoyin after the Party Congress in July, and also intentionally or unintentionally discussed this aspect of knowledge.

It's just that every time Xiao Qi goes home, he brings a different wife. Sometimes it's a little fairy, sometimes it's a little lark, and sometimes it's a beautiful Northeastern Ocean horse.

The most amazing thing was that he actually brought Jia Yuwen home.

This is really serious. Chen Yulian was already very dissatisfied with her son's love affair. Last time, she didn't go to her son to settle the matter regarding Tang Mingxiang.

This time it's just right, let's settle old and new grudges together.

When Xiao Qi was alone, her mother finally grabbed the feather duster again and beat Xiao Qi all over the room. Finally, he returned to Chengdu with scars - the scars were all on his chest and back. Chen Yulian would not let him

My future daughter-in-law found out.

Xiao Qi was about to cry, because he thought every wife would have the opportunity to be close to her mother-in-law and father-in-law. Unexpectedly, he was caught and beaten by his mother in the end.

As expected, a man must pay a price for his extravagant efforts.

Back to the topic.

Xiao Xu attaches great importance to this meeting with the US Geological Survey Team.

Although he has no obvious tendency to speculate on his son's speculation about whether earthquakes may occur in Shuchuan in the coming years, he can easily make some preparations if there is any crisis by listening to the opinions of experts.

It was said that there were so many people attending the discussion, but in fact only a few people spoke.

There were only two father and son in Xiao Xu's side, and the other members of the city government just listened.

The main members of the geological exploration team are Dr. Smith, Dr. Andre, and Professor Gu Yuanyu from Huaguo University of Geosciences.

"Mayor Xiao, you have to listen to me. We have made an important discovery! After nearly two months of exploration, we found that the Nongmenshan fault zone has entered a relatively active stage, and it should be possible to have more severe events in recent years.

Big earthquake." Dr. Smith, who likes to be straightforward, said this before he said a few words.

Smith is a thin, middle-aged man in his forties who used to be a university professor. He was transferred to the US Geological Survey five years ago. He is a very old-fashioned and serious person and has high prestige in the entire agency.

Since becoming the deputy mayor of Yuanyin City, Xiao Xu has started a plan to learn English. After more than a year of hard study and practice, his proficiency has become good.

Hearing Smith's alarmist words, Xiao Xu frowned and said, "Professor Smith, this conclusion cannot be drawn casually. If the people here know about it, I'm afraid it will cause panic."

A big man with a beard and short braids shouted after hearing this, "You Chinese people are just timid and afraid of getting into trouble! Aren't you just afraid of taking on any responsibilities? In our United States, if the National Geological Survey makes such a discovery, no matter what

Whether a disaster will happen in the end, we must disclose it to the local people as soon as possible, otherwise it will be a crime!"

Several officials nearby did not understand English, and there were several people from the Foreign Trade Office serving as translators. The translator had not yet spoken, but when he saw the bearded man roaring, his expression changed: Who are these people? We

The mayor entertains you with good intentions, but he even starts yelling.

But a group of people in the United States had the same expression as the bearded man, and the smiles on their faces faded a lot.

Gu Yuanyu gave a bitter smile and quickly said in Chinese: "Mayor Xiao, please don't mind Dr. Andrew's tone. This is how he talks on weekdays. He is straightforward and has no malice."

Xiao Xu smiled and nodded. Then he turned to Dr. Andrew, a tall man with a beard and said: "Dr. Andrew, I would like to ask, how long are you talking about in the past few years? One year, two years or three years? This kind of earthquake is about to happen.

How big is the energy? To what extent will it spread? If we give an early warning, how can we prevent people from panicking?

You know, the disaster that is coming next month, the disaster that is coming 30 months later, and the disaster that is not known when will have completely different psychological pressure on people. How can I tell the news regardless of everything?

Will the announcement make most of the people in Shuchuan Province panic? In addition to affecting people's production and life, it will also cause social turmoil!"

Xiao Xu's words left Smith and Andrew speechless, and also surprised Gu Yuanyu.

There are not many people in China who think so carefully and think so carefully in such a short period of time.

"But... you still have to take precautions. This earthquake is really not a joke!" After looking uncertain for a long time, Andrew still muttered: "Don't take our kind reminder as a joke. If

If you don’t make good preparations, at least tens of thousands of people will die!"

"Mr. Andrew, are you exaggerating?" Xiao Qi took over at this time, "We had a 7.2-magnitude earthquake in Sichuan thirty years ago. The energy was almost released. How could it be so big?

earthquake? Could there be an earthquake with a magnitude of 7.6 or even 8.0 or above in Sichuan?"

Andrew was a little hesitant, but Smith next to him thought about it and said: "If our tests and experience are correct, what this gentleman said is very possible. At least the most violent earthquake will be above 7.6 magnitude."

! Even though you said that there was a process of releasing energy thirty years ago, in the past ten years, the extrusion of the Himalayan plate has still caused a deep accumulation of energy in the Nongmen Mountains on the Sichuan side.

, within three to five years, there will definitely be a violent explosion! This is the advice of a geological scientist, please pay attention to it."

After a pause, he continued: "Originally, we discussed with Professor Gu that we would visit the Sichuan Provincial Government and the Seismological Bureau of China respectively to explain the situation here. But you are obviously right to invite us here so kindly.

For those who have done research on earthquake disasters, we should naturally tell you the results of scientific detection."

Xiao Xu's expression became serious after hearing this, "No matter whether this disaster will happen or not, on behalf of our people in Daoyin and the people of Sichuan Province, I sincerely thank you for your internationalist spirit. Thank you! I will

Attracting attention!”

The young man beside him raised his eyebrows calmly.

Dad, the one you really want to thank is your son and me!
