Seeing Jiang Si staring at those things, Huo Tingzhou explained them to her.
"That's asbestos tile—"
"The people in the camp defense department said that this waterproof and heat-insulating effect is better than the tarpaulin roof."
"They didn't have much left, just a few pieces, so they brought it to us."
The supply of asbestos tiles was limited at the moment, and in their entire military region, only the "self-sufficient" farms below had obtained approval.
If the new approval was not expected in two months, the people in the Camp Defense Unit would have been reluctant to take it out.
In her previous life, Jiang Si worked in architectural design.
Of course she knew it was asbestos tile.
She also knew that although asbestos tiles looked harmless to humans and animals, they were actually a Class I carcinogen!
Every kilogram of asbestos tile contains millions of flocs as small as steel needles.
Once inhaled by the human body, it is difficult to expel, and will cause chronic pneumonia and fibrosis.
Living in an asbestos tile environment for a long time, the risk of cancer will be 50 to 100 times that of an ordinary person.
However, it has an extremely high cost-effectiveness ratio, and it was not officially phased out in China until the millennium.
Jiang Si's good days have just begun, and she doesn't want to put herself in danger every day.
Seeing that she didn't say anything, Huo Tingzhou asked, "What's wrong?"
Jiang Si did not say anything at the time, but just replaced the asbestos tiles with ordinary linoleum on the grounds that she did not like it.
As for why she didn't tell this matter at the first time, Jiang Si had her own considerations.
In this day and age, testing capabilities are limited. Who would believe her when she says without any evidence that this thing can cause cancer?
If she encounters an unreasonable leader, she might even be accused of "destroying the overall economic development".
To take a step back, even if the higher-ups believe it, will this thing no longer be produced?
Jiang Si thinks not necessarily!
It's like, everyone knows that smoking is harmful to health, but cigarette factories are still everywhere.
But she kept it to herself and didn't say anything. Jiang Si felt a little uncomfortable.
According to Huo Tingzhou, the asbestos tiles in these factory buildings were replaced only at the beginning of last year.
If we intervene now, it should still be in time.
After thinking it over, Jiang Si finally took out a pen and paper.
She wrote the words with her left hand, and the words were so ugly that she couldn't bear to look at them.
However, she had already said everything that needed to be said very clearly in the letter.
As to whether this letter would fall on deaf ears or be taken seriously by the higher-ups, Jiang Si was not sure.
We can only do our best and leave the rest to fate.
The next morning, Jiang Si found an opportunity to go out and secretly put the letter into the military district's suggestion box.
When I came here, I happened to pass by the service center and wanted to go in to buy a few things.
Unexpectedly, she saw Hu Meili waving at her from a distance.
"Sister Si, where have you been?"
"I just went to your house and found that you were not there. I was looking for you in the family compound."
Jiang Si's eyes flickered and she said a little embarrassedly.
"Maybe we got lost. By the way, sister-in-law, what do you want to talk to me about?"
"Well, nothing else, I just have to go to town."
"Today, we are going to rush over to No. 7. I thought if you are free, I would take you there to get you familiar with the route."
"Chasing Da-yi?"
"Yes, the nearest one to us is Ning'an Town. People in Ning'an Town have to rush to the big market for numbers ending in 1, 4, or 7."
In fact, there are two other towns that can also catch up with Dayi, but they are more than fifty miles away from the military area.
No one went there at the time, so Hu Meili didn't mention it.
