Chapter 35
The end of the world 26
Just as she was about to report the matter to Qin Yue, hoping to attract official attention, she got unexpected news.
The old man next door to his uncle's house died of an emergency last night.
Very suddenly, it was fine at noon. There was nothing abnormal except for some cough. I made radish soup and noodles at home for lunch. The old man likes to eat a large bowl.
In the afternoon, I was going to clean the yard of the house, but the old man felt a little dizzy soon after dinner, so his family asked him to go back to his room to rest.
The old man went back to his room without thinking much. Before leaving, he told his son not to throw away the waste wood in the yard. Wait for him to see if he could be made into a small bench.
Who would have thought of lying down and never getting up again.
In the afternoon, when his son saw that the old man had never got up, he went to his room to call him. Unexpectedly, he saw the old man curling up on the bed with his chest with his hands.
His son quickly came forward to check and found that the old man was having a fever and looked even more painful.
His son immediately called the community and asked to arrange an ambulance to take the old man to the hospital.
The community hospital knew the situation and immediately contacted the ambulance to take people to the C City Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital.
When he was sent to the hospital, the old man had difficulty breathing. After a long time of rescue, he still couldn't get it back.
The old man is gone like this. His family is very uncomfortable.
The old man coughed and refused to go to the hospital. His son and Uncle Tang Xue persuaded him several times to go to the hospital. The old man refused and felt that he didn't need to go to the hospital if he was not seriously ill. When his son saw that his father did eat and sleep very well except for a little cough, he didn't care.
There are two kinds of people in the world who most resist going to the hospital. One is blindly confident in his own body. He feels that small problems can be better as long as they resist and are unwilling to do any tests. It is always said that people did not do examinations before. There were so many doctors who didn't live to death. In this case, minor diseases usually drag into serious diseases.
Second, blind and unconfident people like to see a doctor on the Internet and have some symptoms. As soon as they check on the Internet, they feel that they have a terminal illness and are afraid that they will not live for three days. After going to the hospital for examination, it is actually no problem to live another 30 years.
This old man belongs to the first one and has a taboo attitude towards the hospital. He feels that going to the hospital will become unfortunate. If he doesn't go to the hospital, he will get sick.
Huang Dachuan is sick and can't go to work, so his work is on others. Fortunately, there are few kinds of ingredients now, and there is no need to pay attention to cooking skills. Everyone else can do it.
Tang Xue went to Qin Yue's office after breakfast.
The plantation house has always been the focus of Qin Yue. Qin Yue can also be regarded as Tang Xue's direct boss, and the work reports are directly reported to Qin Yue.
Therefore, when Tang Xue came to Qin Yue, Qin Yue thought she had something to report about the plantation, but she didn't expect that she had a surprising news. It is not easy to convince Qin Yue that she is not easy, especially when something can't be clearly stated.
Tang Xue reported Huang Dachuan and Sun Jianguo's father, as well as the old man next door to his uncle's family, to Qin Yue as suspected cases.
On this day, the two talked in the office for a long time. No one knew what they had discussed. All they knew was that since Tang Xue came out of Qin Yue's office, Qin Yue had made several phone calls.
After Tang Xue came out of the secretary's office, she breathed a sigh of relief and walked much lighter. Passing by the office, I happened to meet Jiang Yu and He Bin coming out of it.
"Are you going out?" Tang Xue asked.
"Yes, there is a leak in the house and quarrels with the upstairs. The property management can't be managed. Let's go and have a look." He Bin replied.
He Bin looked at her direction and said, "Are you looking for Secretary Qin?"
"Yes, Huang Dachuan, the chef of our canteen, coughed and was hospitalized. Let me report to Secretary Qin."
"So serious? Do you still need to be hospitalized for coughing? He Bin was surprised.
"Of course, it's not just coughing, but the shadow on the lungs. What kind of disease has not been diagnosed? The symptoms of this disease are not obvious. There is only a little cough. I guess it may be related to the haze, so I asked you to wear a mask." Tang Xue solemnly emphasized.
"Take it up, take it up, I've always brought it well." He Bin nodded in a hurry.
"Is it serious?" Jiang Yu asked.
"What I found should not be serious for a long time. I have a neighbor at my uncle's house who coughed for a long time. He suddenly had a fever and died of respiratory failure last night. I don't know if it has anything to do with this disease. Please pay attention." Tang Xue whispered to them.
Before the diagnosis and the official say, she felt that it's better not to cause panic.
Since that day, grid administrators in the community have added another job to do another full-staff health survey to count the number of residents with cough symptoms in the grid they manage.
"What's going on? Didn't you just set up a health file some time ago? Why do you suddenly start an investigation again? Employee A looked at the email notification on the computer and asked the employee B sitting at the next workstation.
"Who knows? Maybe the database needs to be updated. You see, other data are not always like this. You always need to count and update over again." Employee B replied.
"Health problems are different. What can happen in a short period of time? Inexplicably, isn't this increasing the workload? There are already a lot of things. At least 300 households per person has to count. Thinking of this workload, my scalp is numb. Employee A couldn't help complaining.
"It's annoying to do it. It's not easy to have a job now. Don't complain. Come on. The leader is still waiting for the result. Think about the benefits of the plantation next month, and think about the things in the plantation. Will you be more motivated?" Employee B comforted him with a smile.
"Well, I fought for the output of the plantation!"
"Come on!"
"Come on, too!"
After cheering up with each other, the two social workers continued to work.
These two social workers are just worried about the sudden increase in workload and do not think about the meaning behind these jobs, and people with keen intuition are different, such as Jiang Yu.
He is keenly aware of the deep meaning behind these jobs. Thinking of Tang Xue's words, I'm afraid that another disaster is coming.
Social workers don't know why the health survey is carried out again, but now that the leaders have given the task, they can only complete it. With the increasing number of people reporting cough symptoms, Qin Yue couldn't sit still and went out in a hurry with her bags and materials.
After Tang Xue finished reporting, she thought of another person.
Dr. Jiang.
The physician of the First People's Hospital is Yu Jiajia's tube bed doctor.
When they were in the hospital that day, the two exchanged contact information. At that time, Dr. Jiang said that he would ask her for help. On the way back, she received Dr. Jiang's WeChat message. It turned out that Dr. Jiang wanted to exchange some tomatoes or other vegetables from her.
Tang Xue passed Huang Dachuan's case report to her on the pretext of helping her colleagues inquire about her condition. I hope she could help her take a look and tell the situation of Sun Jianguo's father and the old man. She hopes to attract attention from the inside of the hospital. For this reason, she also told Mother Tang about the situation yesterday, hoping that Mother Tang can attract attention. After all, Mother Tang is facing more complicated pregnant women and pregnant women.
Tang Xue also thought about whether to tell everything to her parents, but when she spoke, she gave up.
She didn't know how to explain the dream and how to explain Mozhu and Red Rattan. Even if she says all this, she will no longer be alone who bears the secret, and it's really good to know? One more person knows, but more person is burdened.
Knowing what will happen in the future, natural or man-made disasters will not be changed by personal will.
As for other relatives, it can't be said. Everyone has their own most important thing. This thing may be people, things, things, and you can give up everything for this most important thing. Obviously, she can't be the most important one for other relatives, and she doesn't want to be abandoned one day in the future.
Someone once said that if you tell the secret to the person you trust, who will be the first to suspect when the secret is leaked one day?
After 20 years of dreaming, she understood a truth: don't test human nature or trust.
Because it can't stand the test.
At 4:00 p.m., near the off-duty time, all communities in City C suddenly received a notice asking for another statistical investigation of the health status of residents. Community employees who were already ready to get off work can only work in emergency work again.
Statistical reports are summarized into the system and aggregated by the system and sent to the computer of the relevant personnel.
At 10 p.m., in the government building of City C, the office director hurried into the office of the top consul and chief leader of City C with a newly released report and put the report in front of the leader who had been closed his eyes.
Hearing the movement, the chief leader opened his eyes, picked up the report in front of him and began to read it. Every time you turn it over, the thick lush color in your eyes will be a p.
After turning over all the reports, the chief leader closed his eyes and raised his hand to rubbed the swollen temples, looking difficult to hide his fatigue.
The whole office was silent. The office director stood quietly at his desk, not daring to make a sound, and even his breathing was light, lest of disturbing the leader's thoughts.
After a minute of silence, the chief leader finally opened his eyes.
At 10:20 p.m., the government office of City C suddenly issued an emergency edict. After 10 minutes, the chief leader will hold an emergency meeting, and all those who have been notified should go to the conference room immediately within 10 minutes to attend the meeting. If you can't report on time, please prepare immediately. At that time, holographic projection will be used to attend the meeting.
The edict interrupted the overtime and rest plans of all participants. Those who worked overtime rushed to the conference room, and those who rested were debugged their identity bracelets at home to prepare for holographic projection.
After 10 minutes, the emergency meeting will be held on time.
There are about a dozen people sitting in the conference room, and there are 6 holographic projectors. These people are the top leadership of City C, with 13 political representatives and 5 military representatives. Among these people, there are two of the most powerful people, that is, the chief leader of City C and the power of the garrison.
At the beginning of the meeting, there was a huge divergence of opinion.
"I object!"

Chapter 36
The end of the world 27
After the end of the world, the leaders in the central circle of City C have always been the busiest group of people in the city. Every day they open their eyes, there will be a lot of things waiting for them to deal with. And they should not only keep their heads clear at all times, but also have a healthy and strong physique, otherwise they may fall into work the next second.
Late-night meetings like this have long been accustomed to it. When you encounter emergency meeting notices, no matter what you are doing, sleeping or going to the toilet, you have to be quickly prepared for the meeting.
Chief Leader Yu Xingbang has long remembered how many late-night meetings he has attended. The shortage of supplies, especially food shortages, is like a mountain weighing on him. You can't relax all the time, lest you will hear the news of a shortage of inventory when you wake up.
In order to relieve food pressure, City C has thought of many ways. The construction of planting bases in Beishan District is coming to an end and will soon be put into use. As long as the output is adhered to, the food pressure will be relieved. Thinking of this, Yu Xingbang was in a better mood.
The blessing is unparalleled, the food problem has not been solved, and there is a suspected large-scale carbide in City C, which must be dealt with as soon as possible. No matter what the disease is, early detection and treatment are definitely the best. He hasn't slept well for a week, and he doesn't feel good at this moment.
At this time, there seemed to be a hundred elephants migrating in the head. The green veins in the temples on their forehead beat frequently, and the eyes were sore and unbearable, which couldn't help but look haggard.
At this moment, he was sitting at the conference table with his forehead closed eyes, listening to the noise in the conference room. His fatigue was accumulating, as if the magma buried underground was about to spew out. The fatigue of the body can still be customer serviced, but the psychological fatigue cannot be solved, which takes a long time to digest.
After the meeting began, the secretary distributed the information just collected to everyone, and everyone who participated in the meeting began to immerse himself in the information. The information is very detailed, and the person who made this information is very professional. The statistical list of all items is clear and clear, which can be understood at a glance.
After everyone finished reading the information, Yu Xingbang went straight to the point and threw the most important question first.
Starting from this question, everyone began to discuss the current situation, and the participants expressed their opinions and thoughts.
"Bangbang."
Yu Xingbang's hand knocked twice on the conference table.
Participants who were discussing geothermal fire were immediately pressed the pause button and looked at Yu Xingbang, who was sitting at the top.
"Okay, let's stop first. I know that in this situation, no matter what decision is made, it is very difficult, but we can't stop doing it because of difficulties. Time is life. We don't have much time to waste here, so we must unify our opinions as soon as possible."
"In addition, everyone's discussion is a little quieter. At least they are all highly educated people. Take out some cultivation. Don't be ashamed."
Yu Xingbang stood at the top and looked helpless.
After listening to Yu Xingbang's words, a group of people lowered their volume, but the intensity was no worse than before.
Seeing that it was quiet, Yu Xingbang rubbed his forehead and apologized to the people sitting beside him in a federal military uniform: "I'm sorry, I let the few people read jokes."
Duan Boyu, the in power of the federal garrison sitting in the front, waved his hand boldly, "It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter. It's all his own family. Don't be so polite to discuss. If you want to convince the other party, you have to take the upper hand first?"
"There are meetings so late, and the mood fluctuations can be understood. We often quarrel in meetings in the army. We are all big and rough. It is common to lift the table and fall the bench, but this does not affect the relationship between our comrades-in-arms, don't you think?"
After saying that, Duan Boyu turned his head and looked at his comrades-in-arms beside him to seek recognition.
Sitting next to him was an officer with gold-framed glasses. His skin was whiter than the others, and his temperament was elegant and booklike, which was obviously different from those of others. His name is Jiang Xinting, the second leader of the Federal Garrison.
Jiang Xinting rolled his eyes secretly at Duan Boyu. Whoever has feelings for you is a reckless man. But outside, they are a whole. In order to take care of the face of the garrison, Jiang Xinting could only pull out a smile and say, "You think so."
Duan Boyu grinned immediately after hearing this, showed his big white teeth, and said proudly, "Look, am I right?"
The dark skin looked whiter, and Yu Xingbang only felt that he almost didn't get up with a breath.
He looked at Duan Boyu, who looked simple on the surface but clear and clear; Jiang Xinting, with a light and calm face; and three young officers sitting upright and not squinting.
He looked at his subordinates on his side who were arguing passionately. In this contrast, Yu Xingbang felt that the number of elephants running in his mind immediately soared to 200.
This work can't be done! This younger brother is too difficult to bring.
After discovering that there was an outbreak trend of carbide, Yu Xingbang reported it to his superiors as soon as possible, and the superiors reported that other countries in the Federation had also found similar symptoms.
The theme of this meeting is a discussion. There are different opinions on matters related to the newly discovered carbide disease. Whether to do city-wide screening or not.
Some people should be screened throughout the city immediately. According to the available data, the cure rate of patients in the early stage is higher, and the survival rate of patients in the later stage is low. Early screening can be detected early and can greatly improve the survival rate. And if there is no screening, it is bound to cause panic after the large-scale onset of the disease, and the hard-to-stable social order may collapse.
Some people believe that no convenient and fast screening method has been developed yet. At present, the most effective examination method is chest CT, and other methods can't confirm the diagnosis.
If screening is done, even screening only symptomatic people will cost a lot of medical resources, not to mention treatment after screening. This will squeeze the living resources of other patients. In the current living environment, medical resources are used a little less and cannot be wasted.
Whether the two sides should protect people or resources, the discussion is very heated.
In fact, all the choices in the world, whether it is a national event or a small family event, are the result of weighing the pros and cons.
The power of the two harms takes its light, and the power of the two interests takes its weight.
After each other's opinions, they can never make a unified choice. In the end, they can only vote to decide, and the minority is subordinate to the majority.
A total of 18 participants attended the meeting. In the end, three abstained, ten agreed, and five opposed, and passed the free screening and treatment proposal.
After the resolution was passed, a representative stood up incomprehensible and said, "Have you read the information carefully? Most of the suspected cases reported are old, weak, sick and disabled, and this carbonization is not contagious."
"You are wasting resources. They get carburosis. Is it inevitable for the evolution of life? If they are eliminated, they will save more food to let more healthy people live."
Jiang Xinting suddenly stood up and stared at the representative with a sword-like face and eyes: "If you hadn't stood in your current position, you would be just an ordinary person. Everyone may be eliminated one day. I hope you can remember what you said today and don't waste medical resources to struggle meaninglessly!"
After saying that, Jiang Xinting kicked off the chair and strode out of the conference room.
Duan Boyu also quickly stood up, "Yu XX, let's go first."
After saying that, he strode out.
"Lao Jiang, Lao Jiang, hey, hey, don't be angry, don't be angry, it's not worth it, it's not worth it."
"Don't call me at the next meeting. Go back and forth. I'm angry. I want to live a few more years."
"Okay, okay, okay, next time we won't come, please, we won't come either!"
"Humph!"
The first and second leaders left, and the remaining three people also got up to leave.
"Would we catch up?" One of them asked.
"No, the second-in-command is easy not to get angry. He will start a fire and scare people to death. Let's not join in the fun and let the leader be responsible for extinguishing the fire."
Duan Boyu and Jiang Xinting took their people away.
The resolution was passed, the meeting was over, and everyone left the conference room and went home to rest after work.
Yu Xingbang stayed alone in the conference room, leaning back on the back of the chair and closed his eyes to refresh himself.
Yu Xingbang was transferred to City C two months before the end of the world. Two months left him unable to control the situation at all. Thinking of what the old leader had talked to him before the transfer, he immediately felt that there was a long way to go.
"Leader, how do you feel?" The office director carefully walked to Yu Xingbang and asked with a caring face.
"It's okay, but I haven't slept well these days and I have a headache," Yu Xingbang suddenly remembered something and looked up and asked the director, "Is Duan Boyu has an aunt in C City? I remember looking for someone to check it after he came.
"Yes, but it was later found that his aunt and uncle had died unexpectedly six or seven years ago." The Chief of Staff replied.
"Don't you have any other relatives?"
"Yes, leave two sons."
"Give me the information of these two people." Yu Xingbang said.
"Okay."
After the resolution was adopted, the screening task quickly reached the units, and the units acted as soon as they received the task.
The community immediately contacted those who already had cough symptoms and arranged for them to go to the community hospital for examination first. If the CT showed that there was a problem, they would be transferred to the big hospital immediately. If the problem was small, they would stay for treatment.
Although it is free screening, not everyone is willing to go. Some older people are afraid to go to the hospital, even if it is free. Social workers can only persuade hard. If they don't persuade themselves, they can only persuade their families. People communicate with others. Sometimes the meaning you want to express is very different from what others understand. Especially for people with large ages, it is more difficult to communicate.
If you can persuade, persuade. If you really insist on not going, they can't drag people away, but only respect the patient's own choices.
Communities, community hospitals and major hospitals are all operating at high speed.
Tang Xue, who has been paying attention to this matter, finally put down the stone in her heart and finally didn't waste her time.
Tang Xue, who is in a good mood, began to make delicious food at home. Tang's parents can receive their daughter's love meals every day.
In order not to be found to be abnormal, she made the appearance of the ingredients the same as ordinary food, and controlled the shape very little, one by one, and she couldn't see what ingredients were made of inside. Wealth is not revealed, so that Tang's parents will not arouse other people's suspicion when they eat.
Tang's father ate fish balls today, wrapped in a layer of corn flour, one by one. Usually, his daughter's love meals are divided into two types: one is that you must eat well, that is, you can only eat it yourself and can't share it; the other is to try it, which are all ordinary ingredients that can be shared.
There are two other beneficiaries of Tang Xue's crazy food, that is, Jiang Yu and Jiang Chen, who can receive delicious food made by Tang Xue every day. Jiang Yu has been busy working overtime recently because of carbonization. He can't take care of Jiang Chen. Jiang Chen can only solve the problem of eating by himself. Tang Xue's feeding is timely rain for him.
On this day, Tang Xue made tomato beef brisket and chopped green onion omelet, and sent Jiang Chen a sufficient amount for two people to eat. As soon as I put down the things, I saw Jiang Yu moving out a box.
"Well, didn't you work overtime today?"
"Well, the patients in the jurisdiction have almost finished screening. There is no need to work overtime from today. It just so happens that you are here. Come and have a look."
Tang Xue walked over curiously: "What is this?"
The box opened and a stream of air conditioning leaked, revealing pieces of plastic packaging.
Meat!
Pork, chicken, spareribs, tube bones, fan bones, etc.
"Oh, my God, where did this come from?" Tang Xue asked in surprise. The meat was slaughtered freshly. Nowadays, ordinary people can't get these things. Frozen meat is a scarce resource, let alone fresh.
"Well, I have a farm in Beishan. These are all raised on the farm. Recently, I was slaughtered and sent me some." Jiang Yu saw that she was interested and explained.
"Oh, yes, I forgot that you still have a farm, don't you run tourism? Why do you still raise poultry?"
"Well, I raised some, but the quantity was not much. They all raised a few for guests to experience life. The people who managed the farm were more reliable, and they have been raising them since then. There is no way to raise the food reserves, so I slaughtered some and sent them to me."
"Have you finished slaughtering it?" Tang Xue suddenly looked up with a pity that if it could continue to develop, it would be a sustainable development project.
"No, only two chickens and one pig were slaughtered, and there were still two boars, one sow, four sheep, one cow and five chickens, but if there is no feed, it will cost food to raise it again."
There is not much feed, so some have been slaughtered.
In the North Mountains, the North Mountains, if the main city of City C is destroyed in the future, they must move to the North Mountains to live. It's really good to have a farm.
First of all, don't worry about living. You don't have to sleep in Datong with many people. Health, privacy and safety are guaranteed.
The most important thing is to farm, build your own planting house, grow food and vegetables, and don't have to worry about food. Plant some forage to raise chickens and rabbits, and you don't have to worry about meat.
Thinking about it, I feel that my blood is boiling.
Tang Xue looked up at Jiang Yu and thought about how to open her mouth.
Unexpectedly, Jiang Yu suddenly said a word, which almost made Tang Xue think that he was mentally capable of reading and could hear what she thought in her heart.
"Are you interested in working with me to open a farm?"
