Chapter 244: The Trumpet Needs to Count the Money for Me
Chapter 244 The speaker also wants to count the money for me
Hua Mi patted Shi Caixia on the shoulder,
"Ask the driver to bring the car up. Move around more and get used to it."
You must get used to looking at death. If you need to grieve for every corpse, your heart will be broken from now on.
Shi Caixia clenched her fists, but she didn't move. After a while, she suddenly said angrily:
"This is the price Ma Zhixuan paid for not buying firewood. What happened to him buying some firewood on such a cold day?"
The snow was so thick that the survivors could not dig out the wet wood from the snow.
Therefore, firewood for heating must be stored and available.
But look at what Ma Zhixuan has done? How many people have been killed by his assumptions?
Hua Mi didn't speak, but looked at Shi Caixia with sad eyes. Then she saw several corpses, and she was filled with indignation.
The further you go towards City C, the more corpses there will be on the road.
Sure enough, the driver drove the car up, but the car didn't go a kilometer before it got stuck again.
This time it was not the snow that stuck the wheels, but the bodies scattered on the road.
The psychological shadow of Shi Caixia and the driver could no longer be measured. They stood beside the wheel at a loss, not knowing what to do.
Hua Mi got out of the car with her almost 5-month pregnant belly wrapped in a down jacket.
Shi Caixia said with a sad look,
"How come someone froze to death again?"
She thought that the group of "snowmen" on the roadside just now were an accident within an accident, but she didn't know that there were also frozen bodies on the road.
Hua Mi did not answer Shi Caixia, but only directed the driver and Shi Caixia.
"Move all the bodies on the road to the side of the road, and I'll call the tow truck crew to come over."
Along the way to City C, many people will freeze to death. This is where we are going.
The temperature dropped too fast and the heating was not available in time. The survivors had to walk over mountains and mountains to go to Xiangcheng. The transport plane in C City was damaged, and no food, drink, clothing or other supplies could be transported to C City.
If the Xiang-C Expressway is blocked, more people will probably freeze to death and starve to death.
Watching the driver and Shi Caixia carrying the corpses with sad faces, Hua Mi walked forward again, recycling all the snow and corpses on the road into a medium-sized recycling bin.
They just walked and stopped like this. It was not a long journey. It took them 5 hours to finally reach the first obstacle point.
A large number of survivors who had traveled across the mountains and ridges had gathered there, and the situation was much worse than Hua Mi imagined.
Before getting close to the obstacle point, I heard a large group of survivors surrounding several RVs shouting loudly,
"Please, it's too cold. Can you let the children go in first to warm them up?"
"When we came out of City C, it wasn't that cold yet. It's only been one day, but it's already so cold. We will freeze to death, really."
"Give me a way to survive."
In the RV, the contractor collapsed and shouted loudly,
"There is no room left. There are more than 50 children crammed into this RV. We really have no room."
Who knew snow could be so heavy?
For people in southern cities, they may be able to escape earthquakes, jelly floods, and day and night darkness, but how can they escape snow disasters?
The reserve of winter clothes is simply not enough.
Even a winter coat cannot withstand the cold.
Huami is very generous, equipping each small engineering team with a luxury version of the RV.
Each RV is equipped with a smokeless firewood stove, and a luxury RV can accommodate 15 workers.
The Hunan C engineering team has a total of 150 people and 10 luxury RVs.
However, every one of these 10 luxury RVs is almost overcrowded.
Not only that they were about to be overcrowded, but they were also running out of firewood.
Chichuan is responsible for the supplies, and Chichuan's team will come to deliver firewood to them every day.
But because of the rough road conditions, today's firewood and food have not been delivered yet.
I don’t know if I can deliver it today.
Lao Bao was so worried that there were 100 migrant workers left outside the RV, and most of the space in the RV was given to the children of the survivors.
But it's still not enough.
There were too many survivors who trekked from City C to Xiangcheng.
In this kind of weather, if there is even the slightest accident and people stop moving, they will freeze to death.
The survivors outside the RV were still begging, and their voices were loud and sad.
The adults lifted up the crying children and squeezed them toward the RV in the wind and snow.
"My child is too young. She can't bear it anymore. Let her go in. We won't go in, and neither of us adults will go in."
There are also some elderly people who take off their thick clothes and wrap up their children.
"I have broken bones. I will freeze to death. It doesn't matter. Give all the thick clothes to the child. Come on, it's getting colder."
Seeing the scene in front of her, Shi Caixia turned her back and wiped her eyes. She didn't dare to cry at this time.
She was afraid that tears would burst out and freeze on her face.
Suddenly, in the wind and snow with very low visibility, Shi Caixia saw Hua Mi standing in the middle of the road, with a huge creature behind her.
No, it is a very thick tree.
The big tree has been overturned, and its branches are luxuriant. The trunk is about as thick as four or five people can hug it, and its length is about seven or eight meters.
Shi Caixia blinked his eyes and ran over,
"Mrs. Gong, where does this tree come from?"
Hua Mi smiled slightly and did not answer Shi Caixia, only said,
"Ask all the adults with children to come over, line up, and each of you can chop some wood to keep warm."
After saying that, she pointed to a large pile of engineering shovels next to her,
"Recruit a group of workers to clear the road as soon as possible. Discuss the wages of the workers with the old contractor."
Behind a large number of engineering shovels was a large number of tarpaulins. Hua Mi added,
"Let you survivors in City C pull out the tarps and make tents by yourself. If you want money, I will give Qin Zhen a bill for all the supplies here."
Shi Caixia didn't respond for a long time. Only when Hua Mi finished speaking did she react and nodded hurriedly.
"Miss Qin has given me full authority. I have the right to make the final decision on all expenses incurred by Mrs. Gong on the way to C City. Thank you, Mrs. Gong."
She choked up as she spoke, bent down deeply, and bowed to Hua Mi.
Although Hua Mi always emphasizes that she is doing business, her business can save many, many people at times like this.
Hua Mi waved her hands, with an indifferent look on her face, and handed Shi Caixia a loudspeaker.
"You're welcome. Go and do your work. The speaker will also count the money for me."
After saying that, she turned around and left everyone's sight to clear the roadblock.
The trumpet of Shi Caixia sounded behind him,
"All survivors in City C, please line up now and listen to my arrangements."
Hua Mi smiled, it will pass, everything will pass.
During this period, I have been feeling restless and restless. Am I reaching menopause?
