    (Dingtian Novels.dtxsj.)

    On November 2, Beijing suddenly cooled down, with scattered snowflakes floating in the sky in the afternoon. By the evening, it was already snowing heavily, and the snow kept falling all night long.  (Just read the novel.)(. wo.)

    The next day, Zhang Anle got up and opened the door to face the cold wind carrying snowflakes.  Zhang Anle quickly closed the door, and the glass on the window was also covered with ice flowers, which was really beautiful.

    Haha, wiped off the ice flower, and looked out, the snow outside could no longer have an ankle.  The snow was still falling in the sky, and he vaguely felt that something was wrong. He seemed to have overlooked something, but for a while he couldn't figure out what the problem was.  Ignore him, the snow is so heavy today, so I won't go to work. Zhang Anle made up his mind and returned to the back room.

    "I didn't expect winter to come so early this year. Fortunately, I had already prepared winter clothes for Xiao Rui, otherwise I would have been in a hurry." Wang Shuyi also got up and said happily when she saw the snow outside.

    "Haha, you are still attentive, I have never thought about this." Zhang Anle heard what Wang Shuyi said and agreed smoothly.

    After saying this, he finally realized what was wrong. Winter clothes were indeed preparations for winter.  This sudden heavy snowfall caught many people by surprise. Needless to say, wealthy people had already prepared winter clothing, coal or charcoal and other heating supplies.  However, many poor families are not prepared at all, and most of the money they earn is spent on food.  Many people don't even have cotton-padded clothes, let alone coal or charcoal. For the poor people in this sudden heavy snowdrift, it is very likely that they will die.

    Thinking of this, Zhang Anle couldn't sit still.  Don't say they didn't prepare winter clothing for such a heavy snowfall. Even if they did, I'm afraid many people wouldn't be able to survive the cold winter.  After the heavy snow, clearing the snow and treating the people is a lot of work. I wonder if Lin Changmin has made relevant preparations.  ¡¾*You¡¿

    Thinking of this, Zhang Anle walked to the phone and shook it for a long time, but there was no response.  It's probably because there was so much snow outside that the power lines were damaged.  This heavy snowfall is a big test for Lin Changmin.  Zhang Anle can only hope that Lin Changmin has enough sense of responsibility now.

    No, I have to go out and take a look.  Zhang Anle wanted to know what was going on outside.

    He walked to the closet and found his coat, cotton hat, gloves, and scarf.

    "Why do you still have to go to work today?" Wang Shuyi asked softly when she saw Zhang Anle was so well prepared.

    "I want to go out and have a look. It's snowing so hard, I'm afraid many people can't stand it." Zhang Anle said as he put on his cotton-padded jacket and coat.  Wear a cotton hat, gloves, and scarf.  After wrapping himself tightly, he put on his leather boots and walked out of the room.

    Walking to the front yard, the guards were busy sweeping away the snow.  Seeing Zhang Anle come out, they quickly saluted Zhang Anle.

    "Cough, cough, it's snowing so heavily, you should go back to your room and rest until the snow stops." Zhang Anle opened his mouth, and the cold wind poured into his mouth, and he couldn't help coughing twice.

    "We are idle and idle. Let's sweep it now, otherwise it will be difficult if there is too much snow and it freezes." said the leading captain.

    "Okay, you guys get busy first, I'll go out and take a look." Zhang Anle waved to them and walked out of the gate.

    Zhang Anle is going out.  The guards must follow.  They had already arranged the duty list, and three people immediately followed Zhang Anle out.

    Except for the fact that outside the gate is busier than at home, there are also many people clearing snow on the street.  The place where Zhang Anle lived was either rich or expensive, and every household had servants.  They got up early and started clearing the snow, but it was still snowing heavily, so their efforts were basically in vain.  Just as the front feet were swept away, the snow fell again on the back feet.

    Walked a few steps down the street.  It's windier outside than at home.  His walking was a little unsteady. Seeing this, Zhang Anle gave up the idea of ??continuing.  He greeted the few guards who followed him and returned home.

    In the afternoon, the snow gradually decreased.  Zhang Anle tried the phone, but there was still no sound. With such heavy snow, even communication became a problem.

    The next day Zhang Anle got up and saw that the snow had cleared and the sky had cleared up.  Zhang Anle tried the phone but still couldn't get through. After having a simple breakfast, Zhang Anle rushed to the executive government.

    Fortunately, the phone number of the executive government was open, and Zhang Anle dialed the number of the Beijing Municipal Government.  The person who answered the phone became a little excited when he learned that the call was from Zhang Anle, and it took him several times to explain the situation clearly.  Lin Changmin was not in the office and went outside to inspect the situation of the snow disaster.

    It seems that Lin Changmin takes this matter very seriously, and Zhang Anle feels a lot more relieved now.  However, he was still worried that Beijing did not have enough manpower, so he called the direct division stationed outside Beijing.Let Zhang Qifeng lead his troops into the city and wait for Lin Changmin's orders.

    At noon, Lin Changmin called Zhang Anle back.

    "This snow disaster is huge! When we organized snow clearing in the morning, we found several corpses. They were all people who usually begged for food on the street. There were also some people whose houses were too dilapidated and crushed by the snow. These people probably also  It's more bad than good." Lin Changmin said on the other end of the phone.

    "How is the snow clearing outside now? Are there enough manpower?" Zhang Anle had expected what Lin Changmin said, and was not surprised to hear him say it now.

    "The snow on the main roads has almost been cleared, the direct divisions are in place, and the manpower is sufficient. It's just that the funds for disaster relief have not yet been received." Lin Changmin answered on the other end.

    "There should be a lot of money left from the last National Day. You should use all this money for disaster relief. If it is not enough, you will report to the State Council. In addition, patrols must be strengthened to prohibit price gouging in the market. Prepare more food and coal.  , we must ensure that the people can eat. We must seize the time and organize manpower to dig out the people buried in the snow as soon as possible, and save as many as we can. The crushed houses must also be sorted out as soon as possible. It has just entered winter, and it is even colder.  The sky is still to come! If you need anything, report it to the State Council and do a good job in disaster relief." Zhang Anle knew that there was a lot of money left over from the National Day celebrations, so he directly transferred all the money to Lin Changmin, and he also ordered a few more  Issues to note.

    "Don't worry, Commander-in-Chief, I will take care of these things right away." After receiving Zhang Anle's promise, Lin Changmin seemed to be energetic and said loudly on the other end of the phone.

    In the afternoon, Zhang Anle walked around the streets and found that there were government food distribution offices at several intersections.  The snow on the road has also piled up into large snowdrifts, and from time to time, police or troops can be seen patrolling.

    Zhang Anle went to several grain stores and asked, but the price of grain has not increased.  Zhang Anle knew that Lin Changmin had indeed worked hard, and he could finally rest assured this time.

    A week later, the snow on the streets had almost melted.  The situation of this snowstorm is also clear. According to Lin Changmin's statistics, more than 80 people froze to death on the roadside. More than 2,000 houses collapsed, causing more than 1,000 deaths. Thousands of others suffered varying degrees of frostbite.

    "Now the houses have begun to be repaired, but many people's whole families have been buried in the snow. This was during our previous National Day celebration, when we repaired many dilapidated houses, otherwise the number of casualties in this snowstorm would have doubled." Lin Changmin  He felt very heavy. After all, Beijing was under his rule and he had a great responsibility.

    "This snowstorm came suddenly, which really tested our ability to work. I am gratified that you have withstood the test. Your work has been done very well. As the saying goes, everyone learns from a cut.  We don¡¯t know when it will happen. But once it happens, it will cost lives. Whether our government departments can quickly and effectively perform their functions is the problem we should think about and solve. Make more preparations and make plans in case of an accident.  When it comes, we can face it in an orderly manner, and this is what we should do." Zhang Anle reassured Lin Changmin, and at the same time put forward requirements for future work.

    "Don't worry, Commander-in-Chief, I will draw lessons from this snow disaster." Lin Changmin did not expect Zhang Anle to make such a request and quickly assured him.

    "What I say are empty words and clich¨¦s. You have to do the real work." Zhang Anle said with a smile.

    "The Commander-in-Chief's speech is very instructive. We must study and understand it seriously." Beijing's Senate President lost no time in flattering him.

    "Yes, yes, we must study and understand it seriously." Others did not dare to lag behind and agreed one after another.

    "Well, I have other things to do, so I'll leave first. You can continue." Zhang Anle said, got up and left the small auditorium.

    This time, the Beijing Municipal Government held a snow disaster summary report meeting. Zhang Anle learned about it and went to the meeting to say a few words.  Unexpectedly, he has become a person who talks empty words now, Zhang Anle muttered in his heart.

    When watching the news in his previous life, Zhang Anle always hated watching the various meetings held by leaders at all levels. All they said were empty words, clich¨¦s, and nonsense.  Now that he was standing in this position, he found that what he said was empty words, clich¨¦s, and nonsense.

    After the snowstorm is over, the next step is to prepare for the National Congress of Representatives from all walks of life.  Gu Weijun has been busy with this matter since he returned from Harbin.  During the snowstorm, he had to focus on disaster relief. This time he finally had time to study the meeting.  (You are welcome to come. Your support is my biggest motivation.)
