Confessions of a Salesman

Chapter 827

I suggested: "Then go down and have a look!"

Yaoyang persuaded me: "If you go further down, it will be difficult to go, it will be full of mud, the puddles are big and deep, it's not safe, you better not go!"

I shook my head and said secretly: "Let's go, it's already here, if you don't look at it, you won't feel at ease!"

Yaoyang couldn't resist me, so he handed me a hard hat with a searchlight on it, put on a raincoat, and led me down, walking down from the ground, going through the first floor, and then to the main building. On the second floor, you can walk to the side of the sump. As you go down, you can clearly see the water on the ground. He asked worriedly: "Why is there so much water? Didn't it mean that it was pumping out all the time?"

Yaoyang also said puzzledly: "It shouldn't be! Normally speaking, there is no water accumulation?"

Then suddenly his face changed and he said: "It's broken! The water here is so deep, so the bottom is flooded! People are still inside!" After finishing speaking, I started running down without waiting for my reaction.

I followed nervously, and I could hear the dripping water on my head dripping on my helmet clearly. When I reached the first floor, the water had reached my knees, and I shouted loudly: “Don’t Go, if there are people below, they would have drowned long ago!"

Yaoyang shouted recklessly: "Maybe the bottom has not yet reached the top of the head, what if someone is trapped below? I have to go and have a look, don't move here, wait for me!"

I shouted anxiously: "The people below are not fools, the water is so big, he doesn't know how to run! Don't go!"

But it was already too late, Yaoyang continued to run down the wall, I could only follow closely behind, Yaoyang's figure could be vaguely seen in the light.

At a turning, I lost Yaoyang's figure, there was a fork in the road, both sides can go down, I don't know which side to choose?Shouted a few times, but no one answered.

I had no choice but to bite the bullet, chose the stairs with less water on one side, and walked down.

After walking the stairs, I felt my feet touch the ground, and the water was already at my waist.

Not far in front of me, I saw a light, wading through the water and shouting, walking in the direction of the light.

When I got to the place where the light was on, what I saw was the hard hat that must have been on, but the person was gone.

The front was pitch black, and even under the illumination of the lights, nothing could be seen, only the sound of rumbling generators could be heard.

The water was still rising, and I started to get a little scared. I called Yaoyang's name loudly, but there was still no response!
What about people?It won't fall into the sump, will it?But I didn't know where the sump was, and I didn't dare to take a step forward, so I just stood there and roared loudly.

Speechless, no one answered, dead silence!
I don't know how long it took, my throat became hoarse and I couldn't make a sound. I also realized that the water level had begun to reach my chest. A voice told me that I had to go back. Got to be drowned here.

I didn't know how long I walked mechanically until I got to the ground and walked into the electric room.A few people saw me in a daze, and hurriedly asked me: "What's the matter?" Then, they didn't see Yaoyang behind me, and knew that something had happened, and one of them asked me the quickest: "Mr. Zhang Woolen cloth?"

I just woke up like a dream, and stammered: "I didn't find anyone down there!"

Several people hurriedly got dressed and started to run down. I followed along and said, "He went down first, and then I lost him, and I can't find anyone!"

One of them said: "The person who just came up said that the water below is very deep, and the water pump may have burned out!"

I groaned and said, "The person who watched the pump came up? Yaoyang went to look for him, and he came up. What about Yaoyang?"

Several people were silent, and an older worker said: "Maybe it's still below, as long as you don't fall into the sump, you'll be fine, maybe you can't find your way, and you will come up in a while! Let's not get lost , go down together, one after another! You lead the way!"

I immediately became energetic and ran forward.

When I passed the first floor, I couldn’t see the entrance to the second floor, and I wanted to go down, but someone hugged me and said, “I can’t go down, I can’t even see the stairs, how can I go down? I stepped on the air and fell! Go back quickly!"

I shook my head and said: "I can see it, I walked by it once, don't worry, you follow me, it's no problem!"

Several people still refused.

I begged loudly: "Trust me! I'll give you money, 1000 per person, and go down with me once. Yaoyang must be still below, maybe where is he trapped? heard it!"

All were silent.

I continued to beg: "One person is 1, 10! I will do what I say! Hurry up!"

Seeing that no one responded to me, I broke free from the arm of the man who was hugging me, and walked down by myself.

Several people hurried forward to stop me and dragged me back to the ground.

One of them persuaded: "The four well-connected down here, maybe Mr. Zhang has already gone up!"

Back in the electric room, my last remaining hope was shattered, I hoped that Yaoyang was sitting there, laughing at me, saying that I came back too late, mocking me for being a coward!It's a pity that everything is my fantasy, and there is no one in the electric room.

I was taken back to the project department by several people, because the water in the electric room also started to accumulate.

Xue Qi sat on the stool alone in a daze, saw us coming in, and said with a smile: "You are too dedicated! It's raining so much, you still have to work! I'm hungry, go eat quickly!"

Then, after looking at everyone, except Yaoyang, he asked me curiously, "Where is Yaoyang? You won't be eating by yourself?"

Seeing that I didn't respond, and seeing the frustrated expressions of other people, I immediately guessed what it was.

Looking at me in panic, he asked, "Is nothing wrong? What about Yaoyang?"

I bowed my head in silence, Xue Qi asked again: "I ask you, what about others? Talk! Are you dumb?"

At this time, a worker who was wiping his hair with a towel in his hand came in, and asked jokingly, "Are you all up now? Fortunately, I ran up in time, otherwise it would be a disaster!"

I stared at that person, and asked viciously, "Are you the one who was looking at the water pump just now?"

The man nodded.

I asked again, "When you came up, did you see anyone going down?"

The man shook his head and said, "No! When I came up, I didn't see anyone!"

I stood up from the stool, held the stool, and threw it on the head of that person with all my strength. The person didn't react for a while, and instinctively blocked it with his arm, but he was still directly thrown by me. Smashed and climbed down.

I continued to lift the stool, and I wanted to smash it again, but was hugged by others.

I cursed like crazy: "Your fucking safety is here, my brother is still down here, it's all because of you bastard, why don't you die for my brother! If my brother has any troubles, you will also give me Go pay for your life!"

The person lying on the ground yelled and complained: "What business does your brother have to do with me down there?"

I was hugged by several people, but I still stretched out my foot, kicked empty, and cursed: "It's not because of you, can my brother go down? You fucking came up and didn't tell us!"

The one lying on the ground was stunned for a moment, and then said aggrievedly: "I really don't know, why don't you go down? I came up and was completely soaked, so I took a shower and changed clothes! I really don't know." !"

At this time, Xue Qi asked with red eyes: "Yaoyang went down, but didn't come up? Why don't you go down to save people? It's only such a short time, there are still people to save!"

The older worker explained slowly: "We went down, the water was up to our waists, and the second floor was filled with water, so we couldn't go down at all, and now we're going down..."

He didn't finish his sentence, but we all know that after such a long time, it is impossible for a person to be underwater for such a long time!
The heavy rain is like the water in the faucet. As long as the water pipe is turned on, it will not stop. When the fire truck arrived, it was more than 40 minutes before we went down.

Just after midnight, the fire brigade personnel told us that there was too much groundwater, and they could only search as hard as they could, but they couldn't find anyone.

I pleaded hoarsely: "Even if we can't find the person, we should find the corpse, right? You can't live without seeing the person, and die without seeing the corpse, right? It's just such a big place!"

The firefighter explained: "The situation below is too complicated, and we can't search all of them. We can only wait for it to rain a little before we go down to search!"

It was dawn the next day, but the rain still hadn't slowed down. The radio said that this rain might be the heaviest rain in the past ten years. It continued to rain for several days without stopping for a moment.

The workers had all left, and Xue Qi and I were the only ones left. Shengnan was rushing over with the others after hearing the news.

I don't know how long it took, I heard Sheng Nan's voice in a trance, I opened my eyes, and in front of me were my parents, Sheng Nan, and Xiao Yaoyang, and beside them were A Liao and Master Yin.

I opened my mouth and couldn't say anything, I didn't know how to tell them.

My mother walked up to me, slapped me directly, and said, "Look at what you did? Did you kill Yaoyang? Wouldn't it be nice for him to just stay at home? Why don't you ask him to come to some construction site? Just come to the construction site, why do you want him to take risks!" After speaking, he covered his mouth and ran to the side crying in pain.

I just sat on the stool without saying a word, my mind went blank, I just repeated the scene when Yaoyang and I went down in my mind!It would be great if I didn't insist on going to have a look at that time, if only I could stop Yaoyang when I got to the bottom!If I search a little longer, might I find him?Why did I come up by myself?
Seeing Xiao Yaoyang in Shengnan's arms, I walked over, hugged him, and said in a low voice: "From now on, I will be your father!"

Xiao Yaoyang seemed to understand something, and while slapping my face with his small hands, he cried, "I want my father, I don't want you! I want my father, I don't want you!"

With tears in my eyes, I hugged him tightly and said, "I am your father, and I will be your real father from now on!"

Xiao Yaoyang cried even harder, and I hugged him even tighter.Shengnan realized my abnormality, and hurriedly snatched Xiao Yaoyang from my hand, coaxing him softly: "Don't cry, baby, don't cry, we are all your relatives!"

At ten o'clock at noon, A Liao took my parents and Xiao Yaoyang back to Zhuhai. Before leaving, my father patted my shoulder and said, "Son, no matter what, remember to find your brother's body!"

A lot of people came from behind, thinking of various ways, the project department was chaotic, I couldn't hear anything at first, but a voice caught my attention, and the older worker discussed why it was so loud down there Water: "It shouldn't be, logically speaking, the four pumps below work at the same time, we have calculated it, even if it rains heavily, it can be pumped out!"

The other also said: "Yes, it rained more than yesterday. When we went down, the ground was just wet, and there was no water at all. I don't know why there was so much water yesterday. It's time to get out!"

I suddenly remembered, when I came here yesterday, those sneaky people at the door, did they do something wrong.

So, he rushed out in a hurry, and Yuan Zhiyuan told a few people to follow me immediately behind me.

I went outside the gate and walked around the fence asking, "Where does the water come from?"

The older worker ran up in front of me and pointed it out to me. When he got closer, he let out a sigh and said, "Why is the pipe folded back? It should be drained outward. Can the water be drained?" ? All flowed back inside, who the hell did this?"

I walked over to take a look, and sure enough, the 50cm big pipe was folded back inside, and all the water was rushing into it!

I said angrily: "I know who did it! Hurry up and pump out the water, look below, and look for my brother's body..." I couldn't continue, then turned around, picked up the phone, and called Xiao Hei.

During this time, Xiao Hei is working with his comrades to set up a security company, which is to lend security to various property companies, and then the property company will allocate funds to him, and he will pay wages uniformly.

At that time, Xiao Hei just told me that he wanted his retired comrades to have something to eat and that he wanted me to solve their employment problems. My suggestion is that if you want to enter Wanzhong, you need re-employment training. One is time. It is relatively long, and they may not pass the assessment. After all, they really have no work experience at all.He proposed an idea to let him set up a labor service company to export labor services and manage them in a unified way. Unexpectedly, he could do this, which not only solved the employment problem of his comrades-in-arms, but also gave him another opportunity to start a business.

Xiao Hei picked up the phone, and I only said one sentence: "Something happened to Yaoyang, hurry to Dongguan!"
