Return to the exciting era of 1999

Chapter 1925 Stormy Rain
"Boss Xin, next time I will definitely..."

"There won't be a next time. Call out the person directly responsible for flood prevention!"

Xin Li was very unhappy with He Xiaolong's evasive look. Ji Donglai could let the other party contract and could also take back the elevator factory at any time. This was the layout of Yiyuan Zhizao.

"That Ye Hongshen, step out!"

Knowing that he couldn't get away with it, He Xiaolong called out to his brother-in-law.

The fat boy hurried over, and when Xin Li saw him, she was very angry. The whole company was busy with flood prevention, but this fat boy was hiding everywhere and didn't do any work.

"Report to Mr. He, flood prevention work is proceeding in an orderly manner..."

"You are fired. Get out of here right now!"

Ye Hongshen had just started to flatter He Xiaolong when Xin Li responded directly, causing Ye Hongshen's brows to twist into a knot.

"Why? Who do you think you are? Do you know that the surname here is He? Do you know who I am? I am He Xiaolong's little..."

"Snapped!"

Before Ye Hongshen could continue speaking, He Xiaolong slapped him in the face, causing him to spin around on the spot.

"Someone, throw him out and give him his salary tomorrow. He has such a bad habit!"

He Xiaolong took back his hand and shook it, feeling a burning pain. There were five red fingerprints on Ye Hongshen's face. Several security guards dragged Ye Hongshen out of the factory and found a car to take him home.

"Boss Xin, this is all because I have to meet some important clients today. Our terrain is fine, so we don't usually need to deal with flood control or anything like that, otherwise I wouldn't let this idiot do it..."

Facing the furious Xin Li, He Xiaolong smiled.

"He Xiaolong, President He. I know you were brought up by President Ji and are a hero in conquering the world, but you have to remember that President Ji entrusted you with such an important department as the elevator. This is a sign of his trust in you."

"It's also a way of cherishing the relationship that you have with Mr. Ji in starting a business. If you don't cherish it, this elevator factory can be named He or someone else. There are so many people who have accompanied Mr. Ji in conquering the world, and so many people who are eyeing this business. You should know what I mean."

"The canal in front of your house has not been cleaned on time. Once the water from upstream is blocked, it will backflow into the factory. Will it be of any use even if the terrain is high?"

"The elevator factory is now in production 24 hours a day. I just checked the main power cables you have privately connected in the past two years. Many of them are less than 500 meters from the ground. Compared with the ground outside, this height is already below the water surface."

"I don't need to tell you what will happen if there is a power leak. The damage can be repaired, but what if someone dies? The media won't care if there is a He surname or anything like that. They will only remember the sign and will blame it on President Ji. And you're telling me it's not important?"

Xin Li pointed at the huge Yiyuan Intelligent Manufacturing logo on the factory icon and spoke rudely to He Xiaolong for a while.

At this time, He Xiaolong's face became extremely ugly, especially when he saw that the huge tree roots dug out from the canal by the employees had blocked the canal. Then he looked at the blockage that was transported away by the whole truck, and his face became a little hot.

As the owner of a factory, He Xiaolong has always remained at the stage of a farmer and cares almost nothing about things outside the factory. In the eyes of the other party, cleaning the drainage ditches is the responsibility of the road administration. Now Xin Li is doing this, which He Xiaolong thinks is making a fuss out of nothing.

But since he is the general manager, there is nothing I can do but listen.

He Xiaolong didn't return to the company until Xin Li left. He made a brief summary and was done.

“Boom…” “Cut it!”

"Fuck, it's going to rain heavily!"

He Xiaolong and his gang had just returned to the office when there was a loud thunder in the sky. Then all the light in the sky was blocked, and soon heavy rain began to pour down.

In less than a few minutes, the rain above the factory obscured the view and it was impossible to see what was happening outside.

"hurry up……"

Because the general manager was watching, the deputy general manager who was temporarily in charge of flood prevention brought people to check the sewers in the factory. Water began to accumulate in the yard quickly, and a group of people took tools and started to open the manhole covers and put up signs.

He Xiaolong stared at the monitor closely. The water in front of several factory doors had reached his calves. If it weren't for the flood-control sandbags, the factory buildings would have been flooded back into the water.

The water on the streets is now beginning to overflow. Fortunately, Xin Li has just asked someone to clean up the drainage ditch. Now the accumulated water on the road is rushing down along the drainage ditch.

The factory opposite was not so lucky at this time, because the drainage ditch opposite was not opened in time, and now the water in the site is half a meter deep.

The other party's boss and his team started to work in a panic, but the accumulated water could not be drained out at all, and the other party was so anxious that they cried out.

"It seems that the headquarters is right!"

Looking at the prompt on his mobile phone, He Xiaolong opened the website. At this time, the satellite cloud map of the headquarters area was showing the location of the rain. As time passed, the position of the entire cumulonimbus cloud moved within the display range.

According to the estimation of the company's meteorological department, the rain here in He Xiaolong would need to last for three and a half hours. It has been less than fifteen minutes and the factory opposite has been flooded. If Xin Li had not come here to check, something serious would definitely have happened at the elevator factory.

After turning on the computer, He Xiaolong was almost sober. He thought for a while and started writing a self-criticism.

As a meritorious veteran who grew up with Ji Donglai, He Xiaolong knew Ji Donglai's temper. If he really made rules and didn't enforce them, Ji Donglai would definitely pursue it and would not give him multiple chances.

Similar to He Xiaolong, many CEOs of Yiyuan Intelligent Manufacturing's subordinate factories were standing in front of the monitors in their offices, staring at the screens closely.

The flood prevention team members wore raincoats and protective gear and rushed to every corner of the factory to ensure absolute safety at every location in the factory.

At the company's headquarters, Zhao Shuying was also staring at the monitor closely, his eyes fixed on the river in front of the company. At this time, ten excavators were waiting on one side of the company, and the company's gate was already filled with sandbags.

"The flood peak is coming down, it's coming down!"

It rained heavily for half an hour, and the water level in the river was getting higher and higher. Soon the flood above roared downstream. The vanguard was not blocked, and it swept away with wood, stones, and all kinds of debris with great force.

Wherever it passed, all obstacles were flattened.

Because the entire river channel was cleared, the flood did not cause any blockage in front of the Yiyuan Intelligent Manufacturing headquarters, and the factory was absolutely safe.

Some small factories downstream were not so lucky at this time. The river in front of them was full of debris because no one had cleaned it for a long time. Some people even built houses in it. A large amount of factory domestic waste accumulated, which seriously hindered the flow of floods.
