Chapter 1645 The snow disaster suddenly falls
Next, the young man sent the information he collected, including satellite cloud maps of Europe and the United States, emergency situations in various places, etc., to Niu Ruzheng's office so that he could have a more detailed understanding.
Once Niu Ruzheng takes it seriously, Xiao Qi won't have to worry about the next big things.
And because he had spoken to Niu Ruzheng, Xiao Qi's first reaction when he put down the phone was to order the logistics department to purchase as much snow melting agent as possible.
Snow melting agents are usually divided into two types, one is an organic snow melting agent with potassium acetate as the main component, and the other is chlorine salts with sodium chloride, calcium chloride, potassium chloride, etc.
Categories of inorganic snow melting agents.
The price of inorganic snow melting agents is only one-tenth of that of organic snow melting agents, but chlorine and salt products are very corrosive. If used too much, they will cause damage to roads, bridges, railways, etc.
However, it is precisely because it is cheap that inorganic snow melting agents are usually used to clear heavy snow and frozen roads in places such as roads and bridges.
Because organic snow melting agents are expensive, they are generally only used in high-standard places such as airports.
Xiao Qi doesn't care what you have now, whether it's organic or inorganic. In this case, it's good to find it, and the dosage is so large, how can there be so much pretentiousness?
The logistics department of Fairy Company is famous for its generosity. No matter if you buy any office supplies, various mechanical equipment, etc., as long as it is of good quality and has excellent performance, Fairy Company will be willing to pay the price and guarantee your satisfaction.
The same is true for the purchase of snow melting agents now. Under Xiao Qi's emergency order, on the 16th, more than 500 carloads of snow melting agents were sent to Chengdu from various places by the fastest railway transportation method. - There are
Money can make all the difference. Anyway, if Xiao Qi gives you a lot of money, those local gangsters will smash the car out.
In addition, on the highway, Xiaoyao Express's vehicles directly load the goods in various small and medium-sized cities, and then gather them all at the nearby cargo airport. After loading, the cargo plane will fly directly to Chengdu.
The senior executives of Fairy Company's logistics department didn't know why Xiao Qi actually spent more than 5 billion to purchase and transport snow melting agent. Even if Xiao Qi's excuse was to build a factory. But
No matter in Daoyin or Rongcheng, all roads are far from frozen!
Even if everything is frozen, are you using so much snow melting agent to pave the way for Sichuan River?
However, since Xiao Qi gave the order in the strictest and clearest manner, Zhang Gu from the logistics department could only execute the order without saying a word. At this point, he was still measured. He knew when to maintain the boss's authority and what to do.
It’s time to argue with reason.
Xiao Qi's movement was so loud that it was reported in some local newspapers and news, and people outside could not understand it.
Niu Ruzheng understood, and when he saw Xiao Qi doing this, he believed Xiao Qi's intelligence and premonitions. At the work video conference on the afternoon of the 17th, he solemnly warned all southern provinces,
Special attention needs to be paid to the continued freezing, ice and snow weather, especially road traffic, wires and cables, communication bases, etc., which must be protected the most strictly.
Unfortunately, judging from Xiao Qi's intelligence, the actions of these provinces are limited. After all, mobilizing the whole province is a big deal, and there has never been any continuous snowstorm in the south for decades. At most, it lasts for a day and a half.
Even if it is awesome.
Does a snowstorm that lasts for a day and a half require too much effort?
It is precisely with this mentality that most people have that the time arrives on the morning of the 19th as promised.
In fact, at midnight on this day, heavy snow began to fall in various places, especially in the four provinces of Lianghu, Anhui, Anhui, and Qianzhou, as if they were covered by heavy snow overnight. The roads were filled with snow, and the roofs of houses and streets were covered with snow.
On the edge... everywhere you can see, there is heavy snow.
The children were actually very happy. They had never seen anything like this before. Naturally, they could play happily.
Building snowmen and having snowball fights, games that northern children are accustomed to, are so precious to them that even if the heavy snow in the sky never stops, it does not affect their emotions at all.
The adults were also in high spirits, but they forgot to observe that the heavy snow in the sky had not stopped all day long.
If people in the city are insensitive, then people walking in the countryside and on the road will feel it very clearly.
First of all, there was big trouble on the railways. The tracks in many places were icing. The electrified contact network of the Xiangshui-Hanchang section of the Beijing-Guangzhou Railway on the north-south artery also completely failed due to the snowstorm.
There is no way to operate trains.
Nine out of ten trains running from south to north run through the Beijing-Guangzhou Railway. Once this section of the railway goes into trouble, trains from various places will not be able to transfer in or out, and they will stop in the middle.
Yes, there are even many that stop immediately at the departure station.
Then the snow started to accumulate on the highway, and then there was ice. The highway authorities quickly announced a road closure in the morning and no vehicles were allowed to enter or exit.
The jurisdiction of highways is naturally easy, but on first-class highways, second-class highways and rural roads, the orders are not so unified. Frequent problems with vehicles and pedestrians have continuously gathered into the disaster prevention of the four provinces.
.Inside the office.
As a result, everyone was shocked.
Roads are the blood of a country.
If the roads are not smooth, then the transportation of various materials will not be completed, and various items needed by each city cannot be transported. Even people coming and going in each city will be affected by the lack of smooth roads and railways.
Fell into trouble.
And there is another key point, it is approaching the Spring Festival!
It’s time for migrant workers in Jiangsu, Zhejiang and eastern Guangdong to go home to celebrate the Spring Festival!
Once the central area is hit by heavy snow disaster, they will be stranded in the same place after buying train tickets, unable to go back to reunite with their families. How frustrating and anxious is that news?
How much pressure do millions of emotionally unstable migrant workers put on society?
All of a sudden, officials from the capital, Dongfang, Yuezhou, East Guangdong, Jiangnan, Jiangdong... and other places immediately called these four provinces, asking when will it be completed? Can't you fix the highway?
The railway must be built!
At first, the officials in the four provinces were very calm, thinking that while clearing the snow and waiting for the heavy snow to melt, it would take at most two or three days to get it done, so it would not be a troublesome thing.
However, things did not develop as they imagined, but moved forward unswervingly according to the pace of the 2008 snow disaster in Xiao Qi's impression.
In just three days, the heavy snow not only did not stop, but spread from four provinces to most of 20 provinces, autonomous regions and municipalities in China. The heavy snow even turned into a blizzard, directly causing disaster to 50 million people.
Of course, the loss of life caused by heavy snowstorms is very small, but the various losses caused are not small at all.
The most important thing is that many people who are accustomed to modern life have returned to the primitive times during this snowstorm: the lack of coal directly led to the interruption of electricity, the freezing of natural gas pipelines directly led to the lack of gas, and the failure of water pipes.
The freeze also made it impossible to use water, and the deterioration of various traffic conditions made it impossible to transport daily necessities...
Among them, the most serious problems are the mountainous areas and small counties in places such as Qianzhou and Xiangshui Hanchang. Basically, the mountain roads are closed, thus becoming a kind of "isolated island" under the new situation.
It is conceivable that when people cannot even meet the basic needs of food and drink, the anxiety these people face is even more severe than that of migrant workers who have been trapped in airports, train stations and long-distance bus stations.
I am anxious.
At this time, the official remembered how necessary Niu Ruzheng's reminder was.
But Niu Ruzheng had no time to scold these people for their carelessness. In the afternoon of the next day, when he saw that the heavy snowstorm was not letting up at all, he immediately called Xiao Qi.
"How's it going over there?" Niu Ruzheng asked right away. He knew that most of the snow melting agent purchased by Xiao Qi was transported to Daoyin City, and the surrounding areas of Daoyin City were the mountainous areas of Sichuan, where the same
One of the areas hit by the blizzard suffered exactly the same disasters as those in Qianzhou.
"The snow in the mountainous area here has completely melted, and traffic has basically resumed, but you can't drive fast. But I don't know how many days the snow will continue to fall, so I have sent people to guard it. If there is any situation, we will immediately
Sprinkle the snow melting agent." Xiao Qi replied seriously: "It just so happens that we are not going to start construction of the Red Sea Factory and the Hyundai Motor Factory here? There are a lot of various excavation equipment and engineering equipment, so the snowstorm started
I just drove it out and it was really put to great use!”
"How many people, engineering equipment and snow melting agents do you have left there now?" Niu Ru nodded.
"There is so much snow melting agent that we can't use it all up. Didn't they laugh at me before that I had to pave all the Sichuan River? Now I have only used less than one-fiftieth of it." Xiao Qi said with a smile, "We have a lot of manpower, and there is still some left.
More than 30,000, after all, those mountainous areas cannot use that many people. As for construction machinery, in fact, it is not used very much. Basically, a road can use ten machines of various types, and the rest is enough to handle at least 50 more large ones.
Where is the area, Uncle Niu, you don’t have to worry!”
Xiao Qi purchased quite a lot of snow melting agent, almost 60% of the inventory of other manufacturers across the country.
Chapter completed!
