Scholars in the courtyard

Chapter 1143 Diffusion
Early in the morning, it's cold.

One machine department.

Mr. Huang was wearing a mask, and Mr. Xia in front of him was also wrapped tightly.

"This is the data on infected people submitted today."

Mr. Xia handed over the documents.

At present, the First Machinery Department has also been affected, otherwise he would not be allowed to do this kind of thing himself.

Mr. Huang glanced at the data sheet. The first column was the name of each factory.

The one in the middle is the new number of people, and the one behind is the cumulative number of people.

At the end is the cumulative death toll.

Looking at the list of three-digit new additions, Mr. Huang felt dizzy.

Looking at the cumulative figures later, it’s even more of a headache.

Of course, there are a few special ones here, but there are very few additions.

The reason is either that it has been properly controlled, or that most people are infected and new infections cannot be added.

"Machinery factory, Yang Xiaotao is in charge of the work now!"

Mr. Xia nodded.

There was no way, several people fell down. This flu is especially unfriendly to the elderly and children, and only Yang Xiaotao was left in the machinery factory.

"This kid has a way of managing things."

"They controlled people as soon as possible, established isolation areas, required the wearing of masks, and picked up patients' families. These measures are one step faster and the results are obvious!"

"Yes."

The two of them were not in the mood to talk about anything else, but their hearts were heavy!

"Isn't it done yet?"

Mr. Xia asked in a deep voice, Mr. Huang shook his head, "They are asking for help from the alliance. After all, the alliance sent troops and seized a lot of research materials after occupying the place."

"It's just that you also know that this thing is a big killer in anyone's hands, and the alliance may not admit it."

Mr. Xia took a deep breath, "I heard that someone there is also infected?"

Pointed upward.

Huang Laowei nodded incomprehensibly.

The hearts of the two sank.

"These idiots should have shot two more of them back then and blown them all to ashes."

"Are we just going to swallow this? If you ask me, there are mushroom eggs anyway, give them two."

Mr. Xia said with a sullen expression. Mr. Huang glanced at him and said, "Just say what you said here. Don't talk nonsense when you go out."

Mr. Xia nodded. He knew that in recent years, in order to create a cultural atmosphere where a hundred flowers bloom, many opinions have been put forward. Among them, respecting human rights and humanitarianism are the most popular ones.

Some people even talk about war, in which people on both sides are victims.

Shit.

He only saw that his own pot was smashed, his house was burned, and the other party just smashed a door in his house and became a victim?

Can this fucking thing be the same?
Although Mr. Huang said this, he agreed with Mr. Xia's meaning.

They have been through too many wars and have never been afraid.

I wasn't afraid when we fought against the United States, and I'm still not afraid when we fight now.

At most, go back to before liberation.

At least it's much better now than before liberation.

While the two were talking, the phone on the table suddenly rang.

Huang Lao answered the phone and his expression quickly changed.

After hanging up the phone, Mr. Xia solemnly said in his doubtful eyes, "Jinmen also broke out on a large scale."

At the same time, the province where Forty-Nine City is located is like the sun, radiating in all directions.

All localities took urgent measures to strictly control population movement.

Fortunately, not many people move around these days, and martial law is enforced in every village, brigade headquarters, and township.

At the same time, in these days after the Chinese New Year, all birds in the sky that are seen are shot down and burned on the spot.

For a time, the birds that still stayed in the north for the winter were wiped out.

There is no way, there is no selfishness in the choice between humans and animals.

Alliance, Haiwei City, Geofrost.

airport.

A group of people braved the severe cold and hurried down.

Then, led by the soldiers, they quickly disappeared into the night in a car.

It's February, it's freezing and snowy here, and the nights are long.

But as pedestrians walked around, there was a fire burning in their chests.

An angry fire.

A fire of vengeance.

The leader of the team this time was a resolute middle-aged man. Under a thick hat, he had a pair of slender eyes that seemed to be able to see through everything.

Behind him, among the three people accompanying him, the one walking in the middle was holding a silver iron box.

This is the main purpose of this trip.

Soon, the group of people, surrounded by soldiers, arrived at a military base.

Then, a group of people wearing chemical protective suits stepped forward to take the iron box.

"let's go."

The middle-aged man glanced at the other party's heavily closed door, and then led the person into the car.

From beginning to end, no officials from the alliance were seen, and no one else received them.

It was as if they stopped here to refuel, then took off again, heading south.

However, the departing plane was filled with large boxes.

There are even a few people holding two boxes on their seats.

These are all medicines that are urgently needed in the country.

After they left, the iron box was opened, and one of the two turbid glass bottles was left for study, while the other was quickly taken away.

The plane took off and quickly disappeared into the night.

However, this time, the plane's route seemed to be a little off.
The middle-aged man sitting in the passenger seat silently patted the iron box in front of him and muttered something.

The plane was humming, but the pilot didn't hear it very clearly. He could only vaguely hear a few words, something like "I'm not happy alone."

morning
In the courtyard, it was busy and depressing.

Everyone wears masks. They know that the courtyard is not clean!
In the Yang family, Ran Qiuye looked haggard. It was not only the things in the courtyard that worried her, but also worries about Yang Xiaotao, her parents, siblings and the rest.

It's a pity that in the era without telephones, we could only miss you and miss you, and we couldn't do anything.

Ran Qiuye shook his head helplessly after looking at Dragon Boat Festival who was about to go out to play and Mr. Yang who was coaxing him.

Fortunately, there is a lot of food at home, which can last for a while.

"Dragon Boat Festival, wash your hands, it's time to eat!"

backyard.

Xu Damao got up from the bed and then glanced at Qin Jingru who was still sleeping, with a proud face on his face.

Since taking the medicine, he feels much better than before.

Counting the days, if there was no problem last night, I should be able to get it.

Of course, it just should.

"Get up and cook!"

Xu Damao shouted, Qin Jingru had woken up a long time ago, "What are you going to cook? Save the food, there isn't much food at home!"

"No? It can't be. Didn't we just get the food?" Qin Jingru turned around and said, "Is your share enough for us to eat for a month?"

Xu Damao moved his neck, "What should we do? Borrow it?"

"Whose borrowing is it? It's the same, let's keep it next to each other. From now on, we'll have two meals a day, and we can still wait until next month for food distribution!"

Xu Damao stood up and put on his clothes, "If you don't want to eat, don't eat."

"But those who were taken away, I heard that they don't have to pay for meals? This is a good thing that only happened during the big pot meal!"

"If you are willing to go, it will be fatal!"

Qin Jingru glanced at Xu Damao and continued to lie on the bed, moving less and not hungry!
"By the way, there was a lot of noise in the middle courtyard last night. What happened?"

Qin Jingru was too lazy to speak. Seeing this, Xu Damao laughed and opened the door.

Seeing that there were not many people in the backyard, I put on my mask and walked out.

Although I can't go out, it's still nice to walk around in the yard.

Thinking of Qin Huairu, whom she met in the toilet the night before yesterday.

Although it is just holding hands, this is
Beside Silly Pillar!

Thinking about taking advantage of his woman made me excited.

"Xu Damao. Go back!"

Just after passing the Moon Gate, I heard a scolding!
"Wang Dashan's family, what do you mean? This courtyard still belongs to you?"

If it weren't for the fear of her men and Wang Dashan's rough appearance, Xu Damao would have stepped forward to argue!
Just being stubborn.

"It's good for you to let you go back!"

"Did you see that there is an infected person in our hospital? If you just wander around without a mask, don't you think your life is too long?"

The Wang Dashan family member said angrily while wearing a mask.

"Huh? Who? Someone in our hospital is infected?"

Xu Damao subconsciously hid in the backyard and quickly covered his mouth with his hands.

"Stupid pillar..."

"Silly Zhu? Hahahaha!"

Xu Damao laughed just after hearing the name. Seeing his rival being unlucky, he felt very happy.

"I haven't finished speaking yet. Silly Zhu has taken the Jia family to the hospital. These rats from the Jia family are secretly picking up birds..."

pat! ! !

Before Wang Dashan could finish what he said, Xu Damao's legs softened and he sat down on the ground.

His face was pale, his head was dizzy, he felt a tightness in his chest, and he couldn't help but want to cough in his throat.

"It's over, it's over!"

"Now we have free food!"

After half an hour.

In the backyard, Xu Damao and Qin Jingru were picked up by a car sent by the street office.

Reason, suspected!
……

At noon, Yang Xiaotao received another call from Director Ji.

On the phone, Yang Xiaotao asked what happened.

But Director Ji said it was inconvenient to disclose.

Yang Xiaotao didn't ask any more questions, but just explained the arrangements of the machinery factory, and Director Ji agreed.

Of course, she also knew that the soap thing was just an experiment.

Best of all, they found a solution.

If it fails, start from other aspects.

The two agreed to call once a day at noon to report the results.

On the other side, Sijiu City is also looking for someone.

Find the person who first spread the word about using Plum Blossom brand soap to treat illnesses.

It just took too long, I searched a lot of people, and I just heard about it, but in the end I couldn't find the source.

So two more days passed.

The ninth day of the first lunar month!

The tenth day of the closure of the machinery factory!
The sky is clear and cloudless!
And now, it's sixty-nine o'clock.

As the saying goes, [-], look at the willows by the river.

Spring is here, and even the wind blowing from the northwest is softer and no longer so cold!
And this is also an important day for the machinery factory.

In the office, Station Manager Hu came running in early in the morning.

After last night's statistics, the number of new people in the machinery factory was finally negative, still half less than the previous day!
Among them, only one-tenth of these new personnel came from numbered personnel.

It’s the people who use soap.

Moreover, one-tenth also comes from three bars of soap.

Of course, this is not what Webmaster Hu is most happy about.

What made him happy was that among the sick people who kept washing their hands and faces with soap, more than ten of them actually had their temperatures drop last night!
This is a good sign.

Yang Xiaotao looked at Webmaster Hu's slightly scrawled notes, which were obviously written in excitement.

"Stationmaster Hu, these people who have recovered, take out the used soap and let all the sick people use it!"

"I know, it was already done when I came here, but the soap is only so big and won't be used many times."

Webmaster Hu was both excited and worried.

Fortunately, this soap turned out to be really useful, which completely subverted his understanding of hospitals.

But the patient is cured behind the door, regardless of whether it is soap or not.

The worry is that not all of these soaps are effective, and there is not much food!

Yang Xiaotao pondered for a moment!
"In this way, make the soap into soapy water, spray it, and spray it around the ward and in the isolation area!"

"That's a good idea!"

Stationmaster Hu patted his head and said excitedly, "I'll make arrangements right away."

"By the way, don't touch the remaining 40 yuan, let someone keep an eye on it for me."

"clear."

Here, stationmaster Hu led people out to make arrangements, and Yang Xiaotao glanced at the report.

After a while, I heard a shout from downstairs. I touched the beard on my lower lip and it felt a little prickly!
Just pick up the phone.

"Uncle Xu, it's me!"

In the chemical factory, Xu Yuanshan has also been under a lot of pressure recently, but there are few people here, and with effective control, there are not many personnel infections, but the supplies are not that abundant.

If it weren't for the support of the machinery factory, it would have been unable to survive long ago.

Hearing Yang Xiaotao's voice, Xu Yuanshan sat up from the ground and opened his coat, "Xiaotao, tell me!"

"Uncle Xu, I have something to tell you."

Immediately, Yang Xiaotao told Xu Yuanshan about the experimental results of Meihua brand soap.

He didn't need to tell Xu Yuanshan what to do, he just needed to explain the situation. Xu Yuanshan had his own judgment.

"Now it seems that there is a one in ten possibility!"

Xu Yuanshan had already stood up from the ground, regardless of the coldness of the office, holding the phone with his face flushed.

"Don't say one tenth, even one hundredth or one thousandth, we have to do it!"

"Wait, I'll have people resume production immediately."

"Okay! Once they are produced, I will have someone pull a batch and send them to the first branch factory and the steel plant."

"You can use your inventory first and spray it with soapy water..."
