An accident resulted in 17 people seriously injured and dozens more slightly injured in the frontline work team of Qianchuan Forest Farm.
Work on the mountain was naturally impossible, and the slightly injured people stayed home to rest the next day.
The bureau sent a crane and an investigation team.
A crane was used to right the overturned trolley and commuter vehicle and tow them back to the forest station for repairs, while the investigation team stayed behind to investigate the cause of the accident.
Driver Lao Zhang and tractor driver Wang Tianliang were both at the forest farm. Since things had already come to this, there was no need to hide anything, so the two of them told everything they knew.
Wang Yuanjun, Wang Tianliang, and others loaded the branches and timber, but did not accompany the vehicle. Instead, driver Lao Zhang drove the trolley back to the forest farm and dumped the trolley into a side road.
Driver Lao Zhang said he glanced at the vehicle when he got off and it seemed normal. He didn't know how the vehicle ended up at the scene of the accident.
Based on the on-site investigation of the trolley's stopping location, it can be roughly deduced that when the trolley was stopped on the branch line, it was unknown why it became uncoupled from the locomotive in front.
The trolley had no braking system and slid along the railway branch line all the way to the accident site.
Thus, the commuter bus carrying off-get off work workers collided with the trolley parked at the bottom of the slope, causing the accident.
The investigation concluded that the driver bore primary responsibility for the accident, while the four workers loading the truck bore secondary responsibility.
As the secretary of Qianchuan Forestry Farm, Feng Baosheng was also responsible for the firewood being delivered to his family.
During the investigation, someone blurted out that Feng Baosheng was determined to hold the mountain opening ceremony.
The investigation team was shocked. What kind of era is this? Who would dare to pry into these things?
So when the investigation team returned to the bureau to report, they mentioned this incident as well.
When the leaders in the bureau heard this, their faces turned green. "Nonsense, this is pure nonsense."
How could Feng Baosheng, as the secretary of the forest farm, make such a basic mistake? I need to compile the investigation results and report them to my superiors.
Zhao Yongsheng slammed his fist on the table in anger, stood up abruptly, and roared.
With such a big incident, they didn't care about the New Year or not; Songjianghe immediately reported it to the province.
The provincial department was shocked when they received the news. The people who had originally arranged for Feng Baosheng to go to the grassroots level were now facing a headache.
Feng Baosheng has not achieved anything since he arrived at Qianchuan Forestry Farm, but he has made a lot of messes. Even if people want to protect him, they don't know where to start.
After a meeting at the provincial level, it was decided to remove Feng Baosheng from his position as secretary of the Qianchuan Forestry Farm and transfer him back to the province for further processing.
As for the two tractor drivers who went to Qianchuan Forest Farm with Feng Baosheng, they were transferred back to their original forest farm and demoted to forest clearing workers.
Guo Chunsheng and Zhao Qingli, the two foremanes, were also affected. They couldn't be foremans anymore, so they just went back to doing what they were doing before.
Driver Lao Zhang bears primary responsibility for this accident. After a meeting, it was decided that he would be dismissed from his post and placed on probation.
Although this matter is not directly related to Zheng Xianyong, as the director of the forest farm, he also bears some responsibility for his lack of awareness of safety production, and was criticized by his superiors.
This result was already quite good. Zheng Xianyong, Zhao Limin and others breathed a sigh of relief. It didn't matter if they were criticized or reprimanded, as long as they didn't lose their jobs.
"Alright, there are only a couple of days left before the New Year, so let's not cause any trouble and just have a peaceful New Year."
"Let's wait until after the New Year and see what the leaders say. We can't let our work on the mountain be delayed."
Zheng Xianyong waved his hand, telling everyone in the field to go home and rest.
"Oh, by the way, let's all keep quiet about the outcome. Don't let people think we're gloating or kicking someone when they're down."
Zheng Xianyong is a very kind person; even at this point, he is still thinking of others.
Zheng Xianyong's generosity doesn't mean others are the same.
These people agreed verbally, but once they left the field headquarters, the news spread like wildfire.
On the Sheng family's side, Sheng Liancheng came down from the mountain, and the whole family was chatting on the kang (a heated brick bed).
"Sigh, if only I hadn't gotten injured, I could have gone up the mountain these past few days to gather something for the New Year," Sheng Xiping muttered to his parents as he sat on the kang (a heated brick bed).
The situation was urgent, and Sheng Xiping couldn't think of anything else. He just felt that he couldn't lift his arm and couldn't exert any strength, so he went to the clinic to see Dr. Qiao.
After resting at home for a night, I discovered that I had bruises on my legs and back, and it hurt whenever I moved.
It must have been hit when the commuter bus overturned; we were just too busy rescuing people to notice.
When a person is in a state of excitement, the pain is not obvious. It is only after resting and calming down that the pain can be felt.
"Don't go. Just stay home and be safe. That's better than anything else."
Look at those families with serious injuries, they're all at the hospital with their families. They won't be able to have a proper New Year this year.
"Just shut up already, don't make us worry," Sheng Liancheng and Zhang Shuzhen said in unison.
"No matter what, we'll get through the New Year. We still have some meat at home, which Yujiang and the others sent over. I also bought some more at the store. That should be enough for the New Year."
Now that they say we can raise livestock, we'll build a pigsty in our backyard next spring and raise a couple of pigs.
Your dad and I will clear a little more wasteland, plant some corn or beans, and feed them a little bit to raise them until they're big enough to slaughter and eat.
A few days ago, the radio said that policies would be relaxed in the future to encourage individuals to raise livestock.
Zhang Shuzhen had already planned it out: after the New Year, she would catch two piglets and raise a few chickens to lay eggs.
Now they're letting us pick up small plots of wasteland to cultivate. There are quite a few places around the forest farm; we'll clear some out then.
