The president is committing suicide

After Shen Cong finished his meal, he pushed the dining cart out the door and lay back on the sofa to continue sleeping.

He couldn't sleep either.

He was terrified and wanted to kiss her to ease his fear.

But he had no choice but to endure it.

Both of them had a sleepless night.

When I woke up the next day, the wind and snow outside showed no sign of stopping.

The vast primeval forest is just a fragile man-made structure in the mountains. If you cut off contact with the outside world, there will be no problem with food and other things.

I’m afraid that if the heavy snow continues, it will break the power lines and electricity and heating will become problems.

The hotel has already contacted the people at the foot of the mountain and is trying to dispatch a snowplow to clear the road. In any case, they have to open the road first so that people can evacuate.

After all, the residents on the mountain are all rich or noble, and it would be difficult to deal with if any of them is dissatisfied or has any problem.

There was no way to ski or go out, and people in the hotel had already complained, and the hotel manager was busy apologizing everywhere.

Ding Jiaying didn't think it was a big deal. She called Mulan and told her that there was traffic congestion in the city due to the unprecedented continuous snowfall.

"All the New Year's goods I bought were stuck on the road. There is really no way to deal with the icy roads. Fortunately, I went home with the bonus and did some shopping. There is no problem with the inventory. I can pick some vegetables from the vegetable garden. Mr. Ding, it will be even more difficult for you to transport supplies in the mountains. Are you all right?"

Ding Jiaying wrapped herself in a blanket and said that it was okay. Some people had already started to clear the road.

"Luckily you all got the day off, otherwise you would have been delayed on the way."

"Yeah, luckily we had an early holiday, otherwise we wouldn't be able to enjoy the air conditioning and the fire comfortably now."

After chatting a few more times, Ding Jiaying hung up the phone.

Shen Cong came back from outside at this time, looking unhappy.

"How about it?"

Last night, what Ding Jiaying was worried about happened again. It rained and snowed repeatedly, and the snow melted and froze again. The frozen rain and snow broke the power lines.

The power outage was not very obvious at first, as at least there was still some heating in the room.

As time went by, the coldness Ding Jiaying felt became increasingly unbearable.

Shen Cong asked her to wrap up her clothes and went out, and now she came back just to shake her head.

"very bad?"

"It's not that bad. We just need to stay calm and wait for rescue."

"That's bad."

Xiao Mimi suddenly rushed in: "What should we do, Aying? Amu said that the ice-breaking operation on the road below is also encountering difficulties. Power repair is also impossible. We won't be frozen to death on the mountain, right?"

"No, it's just a temporary difficulty. The hotel must have a backup plan for power outages, and there should be generators and so on. There is still so much food, survival should not be a problem. Don't worry." Ding Jiaying's mind was working very quickly, and she used these words to comfort her and herself.

"It's okay, it's okay. Don't worry about it. Where's your Amu?"

Xiao Mimi hugged Ding Jiaying and started crying: "Amu said he wanted to work with the hotel staff to shovel snow and build a trail down the mountain. It's better for both sides to work together than to just wait."

Ding Jiaying hugged her backhand: "She looks like a little puppy, but at the critical moment, Shangguan Mumu is not so dull, she looks like a lion."

Xiao Mimi burst into laughter and said, "What kind of metaphor are you using? They are just small animals. It's like you are coaxing a child."

"It's just coaxing a child." Ding Jiaying dodged her pretend slap and grinned.

The two of them were in a mess, and Shen Cong stood aside like an unnecessary invisible person.

"Since Amu hasn't come back, you'll stay with me. The power is out now, so let's wrap ourselves in a blanket to keep warm. We'll see what arrangements are made later." Ding Jiaying told Xiao Mimi about her conversation with Mulan. "It's the same outside now. We don't have to worry about the company."

Xiao Mimi obediently wrapped herself in a blanket with her, and they snuggled up to each other on the sofa.

Seeing that she had someone to accompany her, Shen Cong thought she was safe for the time being and quietly walked out the door.

The current situation is quite dangerous, and there may be no heating tonight. He just met with the hotel manager. As it is expected that there may be no electricity in the next few days, the diesel generator set is mainly used to supply electricity to necessary equipment for emergency lighting.

The manager originally wanted to save as much as possible on food supply, but Shen Cong suggested that it would be better not to do so.

"If there is a problem with the heating system, it is easy for people to panic psychologically. If there is a problem with the food supply, especially the lack of warm food and sufficient protein, people will worry about survival. It may cause big problems."

"Mr. Shen's consideration makes sense, but due to the heavy snow for several days, the guests who were originally scheduled to leave have been delayed. Now the hotel is almost full, including the staff. The food here is purchased every 3-5 days, and we must reduce consumption to last a full week. This is the safest way." The manager also has practical difficulties to face. Although there are ski resorts in the mountains and forests in the central region, they are rarely closed due to heavy snow.

There is always a big difference between writing an emergency plan on paper and actually dealing with it. Ensuring survival is important, but ensuring stability is even more important.

If a crisis of competing for survival resources really arose as Mr. Shen said, he couldn't even imagine what kind of scene would unfold, and he broke out in a cold sweat.

"Then, ensure you have a staple food and a bowl of hot soup, and reduce the consumption of vegetables and meat appropriately."

The manager approved the plan and prepared to discuss it with the chef.

"Manager, did you send a team down the mountain to dig the road?"

"Yes. Our top priority now is to restore the power supply. The maintenance team at the foot of the mountain is very busy now. Our roads are not open yet, so it is difficult for them to go up the mountain. We also have engineers from the power bureau on the mountain. If both sides work together, we should be able to find the damaged area soon."

"Can I be one of them and go with you?"

The manager was very hesitant. Mr. Shen was of noble status, so he did not dare to agree to his request. This mountain is not among the top ten peaks in the country, but it is also a mountain with a low degree of development. The deep ravines on both sides of the road are very dangerous.

"Mr. Shen, our team members are all experienced, which is enough for now. As a vanguard, the number of people is not important, as long as we can effectively open the road. Thank you for your enthusiasm."

The manager was actually very touched. Many people said that President Shen was a notoriously cold-blooded person with a cold face, a cold heart and no humanity.

But now that it has happened, those good people who claim to be kind and good-hearted only want to complain about the lack of heating and the power outage that makes it inconvenient to watch a movie.

After the manager left, Shen Cong felt lost.

The brief silence was broken by the ringing of the telephone.

"explain."

"We have contacted the helicopter, but it is still raining and snowing, so we cannot fly in the mountains. We have to wait for the weather to clear up."

"What about electricity?"

"Although it is not as serious as in 08, there are still cases of high-voltage power towers falling down, especially in mountainous areas. The power system is fully staffed and at full capacity. The road conditions are too bad, and it takes more time to reach the destination on foot."

"how long it takes?"

"We have mobilized the group's forces nearby to participate in the road repair, and mobilized small excavators. It is estimated that it will take at least three days to reach the ski resort."

"Three days, no problem for now. But my phone might run out of battery after that. Please write down a phone number and ask the hotel manager to contact me."

"Yes."
