When Huo Qianli and Qin Shan arrived at the fire scene, the scorching temperature was still impacting the skin of the people on the sidelines, as well as their moods.
In front of Huo Qianli's eyes was a scene mixed with red and black.
The red ones are the stubbornly leaping flames, the residues still showing high temperatures, and the pairs of eyes that are about to burst;
The black is the deep night, the ruins where the temperature has been lost after the fire, and the dirty hearts!
The town leaders arrived one after another and stood beside Huo Qianli and Qin Shan. They looked at their terribly gloomy faces and remained silent.
Hushan Pharmaceutical Factory, as the largest enterprise in the industrial park, is a major taxpayer in Dongjiang County and a leading agricultural industrialization enterprise recognized by Shuzhou Province.
When it was first designed, it only had two warehouses, one for raw materials and one for finished products.
Considering the needs of fire prevention and theft prevention, one was placed on the east side and the other on the west side.
Later, the business developed well, and a new raw material warehouse and a spare parts warehouse were built next to the two warehouses.
The fire this time occurred in the finished product warehouse and the spare parts warehouse.
Although it was fortunate that the raw material warehouse was not damaged, the loss of these two warehouses was almost astronomical for Qianfu Town.
Time passed slowly, and with everyone's best efforts, the fire was gradually brought under control.
To be precise, it was blocked.
With the limited firefighting forces in Qianfu Town and the Industrial Park, they could only prevent the fire from spreading to other factory buildings, but the two connected warehouses had almost been burned to ruins.
What is a little bit of relief is that the rescue workers have managed to rescue a lot of supplies at their selfless efforts, and they are now being placed on the open space in front of the warehouse.
"Secretary Huo!" Zhan Baoxing came over in a hurry, covered in dust. "The fire was too big. Our firefighting equipment was too poor, and we were short of manpower. We could only block the fire. More than half of the goods in the two warehouses were burned."
Huo Qianli's face was darker than the night at this moment. He said coldly: "Have you found the cause of the fire? Have you counted the casualties? How much is the property loss?"
Zhan Baoxing shook his head. "I don't know yet. I have arranged for someone to check the warehouse surveillance. So far, I haven't heard of anyone dying. Only a few people were burned while fighting the fire and have been sent to the town's health center. As for the property losses, Mr. Qi, please talk to Secretary Huo."
Qi Mingguang from Hushan Pharmaceutical Factory also came over with a dusty face and looked at Huo Qianli, "Secretary Huo, we have two warehouses on fire this time, and the main loss is in the finished product warehouse. The exact damage is still being counted, but..."
Qi Mingguang glanced at Huo Qianli and gritted his teeth and said, "The finished products stored in the warehouse are worth about 27 million, and less than one-third of them have been salvaged."
Huo Qianli clenched his fists and said nothing.
The police station chief, Wu Siwei, came to Huo Qianli with a shabby face and dishevelled hair. "Secretary Huo! Mayor Qin! The relevant responsible persons have been controlled by us. Please instruct us on how to deal with them next!"
Qin Shan asked in confusion, "Didn't they say the cause of the fire hasn't been found out yet? Who are you controlling?"
Wu Siwei said, "The factory security and the park security personnel, they are the most direct persons responsible for such a big incident!"
"That's true!" Qin Shan nodded slowly, then was suddenly stunned.
He remembered that the head of the security department of the industrial park was Tie Niu, and the security captain of Hushan Pharmaceutical Factory was Tie Niu's son Er Niu? !
He suddenly turned his head and looked at Huo Qianli.
Huo Qianli narrowed his eyes and nodded, "Director Wu handled the situation very quickly. I hope you can find out the cause of the fire even faster."
Wu Siwei put his legs together and said in a deep voice: "Don't worry, Secretary!"
Huo Qianli thought for a moment and said, "Comrade Qin Shan, please take care of the follow-up here. Everyone, please follow the command of Mayor Qin. Director Luo, please come with me to the hospital to see the wounded."
Everyone nodded, and Qin Shan also hummed, "Okay, Secretary."
With that, Huo Qianli turned and left. Just after he took a few steps, Wang Anquan caught up with him, glanced at Director Luo, and pulled Huo Qianli aside.
"Secretary Huo, you can't do this!"
Huo Qianli frowned, "What do you mean?"
Wang Anquan whispered, "It's obvious, they're here for Tie Niu, they want to cut off your minions! If you fall out with Tie Niu, no other villagers will dare to trust you! Your biggest advantage will be gone!"
Huo Qianli was silent for a while, then patted Wang Anquan on the shoulder and said, "I understand."
Wang Anquan hesitated and said, "Then you..."
Huo Qianli paused and said, "I have no choice."
The car drove out of the industrial park. The night wind poured in through the open windows, bringing a refreshing coolness, but Huo Qianli's chest always seemed to be blocked by a fire.
He knew that when his counterattack hit the opponent's vital point, the opponent would definitely take action. At that time, the rats and termites hiding behind Qian Renping would slowly reveal their true colors, and he would be able to follow the clues and catch the opponent in one fell swoop.
But he really didn't expect that these people would be so bold as to do such a thing!
Twenty million!
The warehouse, whose goods alone were worth more than 20 million, was burned down in a fire!
Just for that purpose?
Or is there another intention?
He closed his eyes, recalling the tragic scene just now, and recalling the words and actions of each person in front of him.
Could there be something wrong with any of these people? And who could it be?
