Chapter 126 Mr. Tao
As soon as You Anhua stepped onto the corridor on the sixth floor, he felt something strange.
However, the leader's earnest words were still ringing in his ears, and the investigation team members below were encouraging him, so he did not stop and continued to move forward.
He remembered that when Fan Yajun walked to the room at the east end, Tao Nanfeng did not raise any alarm, and it was only when she broke open the door that someone shouted from downstairs. Even after hearing the danger cry, Fan Yajun did not retreat immediately, but insisted on opening the door before leaving.
You Anhua secretly laughed at Fan Yajun in his heart.
——A woman is useless, what’s the point of having her come up? It sounded extremely tragic, but in fact no useful information was obtained.
——Two women were playing tricks, one was shouting danger below, and the other was running away in fear above. If you ask me, women shouldn’t go out to work. Isn’t it better for them to just stay at home and give birth to children and cook?
But the feeling of emptiness under his feet became stronger and stronger, and You Anhua felt anxious.
——It can’t be true? Could it be that the pregnant woman’s judgment is true?
——I can’t die. I can’t die. I finally got into the special investigation team and became the deputy team leader. I just got in touch with Director Ding. My future is bright. How can I die?
I walked nervously to the last house at the east end. The wooden door that Fan Yajun opened was half open, revealing a solid iron door inside.
Oh my god! The iron door was stronger than he had imagined.
You Anhua thought of Fan Yajun swinging the axe to chop the wooden door, gritted his teeth and raised the axe high.
Before the axe was chopped out, I heard someone shouting something below. He turned his head subconsciously, but before he could see his surroundings clearly, he felt a void below him and the world was spinning.
The whole building seemed to shake.
The floor beneath my feet collapsed!
Everyone standing downstairs in the office building panicked and screamed.
"It's over, it's over, the floor has collapsed!"
"Someone come quickly...Team Leader You has fallen down!"
You Anhua only had time to yell "Ahhhh... Help!" before he fell to the next floor.
Ding Wangjian was so frightened that his first reaction was to step back. A gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall. This building is so crooked. If it is disturbed again, it will collapse and bury itself.
A group of people ran like the wind. When they passed by Tao Nanfeng, they heard her voice, which was neither loud nor soft.
"This building is quite robust. Even if some parts are damaged, it does not affect the overall stability. The fifth floor is fine. We can send someone to rescue Team Leader You. Nothing will happen."
When Ding Wangjian heard this, he stopped involuntarily and looked at Tao Nanfeng.
This pregnant woman has some real skills! He finally figured it out. It was her husband who came over to warn her just now, but she ignored him. Now she says it's okay, is that true?
Ding Wangjian looked at his men behind him and said, "Send someone to carry Deputy Team Leader You down."
Unexpectedly, the subordinates who had just expressed their loyalty were all frightened and retreated.
"Team leader, the building is about to collapse, who dares to go up there?"
"Deputy Team Leader You signed a waiver when he went up, so we are not responsible if anything goes wrong."
"Yes, I have old people and young children to take care of, I don't want to die..."
Ding Wangjian was so angry when he saw these subordinates who were afraid of death. But getting him to go up would be extremely difficult, absolutely impossible.
Five minutes later, the building stood there steadily. Except for a part of the floor of the corridor on the sixth floor collapsing, nothing happened.
Now everyone believed what Tao Nanfeng said.
Everyone's eyes turned to Tao Nanfeng, who had an unusually large belly. Her belly is like an inverted large basin, and you can't see her feet when she stands. Generally, if a pregnant woman has a belly this big, her walking posture will change accordingly.
The hands will subconsciously support the waist and the feet will turn outward in an effort to maintain balance. But her posture did not seem heavy at all, as if her stomach was stuffed with cotton and everything was a fake.
She was the one who gave the warning just now, right?
Didn’t she just say that the floor would collapse but people wouldn’t die?
Liu Sen looked at Tao Nanfeng in disbelief and asked, "How did you find out there was something wrong with the floor? When will it collapse?"
Tao Nanfeng smiled but said nothing.
When Fan Yajun thought about what Tao Nanfeng said about being sensitive to vibrations, she was 100% convinced in her heart that this was a special ability! It is more accurate than other instruments in detecting engineering quality issues!
The leader of the fertilizer factory looked at Ding Wangjian with a slightly accusing look: "Team Leader Ding, your people are injured, are you really not going to rescue them?"
You Anhua fell to the next floor and held his breath. When he regained consciousness, he found that his right leg was twisted and his head, face, arms, waist... were all covered with scratches. Blood seeped through the cloth and it looked scary. He couldn't help but cry and howl.
“Help—help—”
But who dares to go up?
Ding Wangjian's face twitched twice: "This building is not safe. How can we save people? What suggestions do the experts have?"
Liu Sen sighed and said, "Hurry up and ask the fire brigade to send a ladder over. If we have to wait until the support work is completed before rescuing people, I'm afraid something will happen to the injured comrade."
Ding Wangjian looked at the leader of the fertilizer factory.
The people at the fertilizer factory cursed in their hearts. Damn it, all the employees in our factory were evacuated, leaving only an empty building, that’s why nothing happened. The people in your investigation team tried to be heroes by signing waivers, making it seem as if they were really not afraid of death. What was the result? It's because you are scared to death that you end up causing trouble for us!
He cursed in his heart, but said politely: "Okay, okay, we'll send someone to call the fire department right away."
Xiangbei stepped forward at this time: "No need to bother, let me do it."
After saying that, under the gazes of everyone, Xiang Bei walked steadily up to the fifth floor, carried You Anhua, who was kneeling on a piece of concrete, on his shoulders, and quickly brought him down.
No shaking, no cracking, no collapse... nothing happened.
As soon as You Anhua left the office building, he screamed, "Ahhh, my leg is broken, my leg is broken, this is a work-related injury, Director Ding, this is a work-related injury!"
At this time, the members of the investigation team also crowded over to express their comradeship: "Deputy Team Leader You, you have suffered. We will send you to the hospital."
Xiangbei handed You Anhua over to his colleague, walked over to Tao Nanfeng with long legs, and said with a smile: "You are right, the fifth floor is safe for now. The most dangerous place is indeed the sixth floor. Those rooms must be overloaded."
Party A, the design institute, the construction party, and the investigation team all gathered around Tao Nanfeng, staring at her with sharp eyes.
"What on earth was placed in the room on the sixth floor that could cause such consequences?"
"So it's not the design institute's fault, but Party A's illegal use?"
"The construction company was able to get rid of suspicion. In the end, it was Party A's own fault."
"So, in your opinion, what should we do? Can this building still be used?"
Surrounded by so many people, Tao Nanfeng felt the air around her became turbid, and the fetus in her belly began to move, as if protesting against her.
Tao Nanfeng was originally standing sideways against the flower bed, but now he stood up, straightened his back, frowned and said, "Please move aside, I want to see this office building."
Everyone was intimidated by her aura and subconsciously took a few steps back to make way for her.
Even Liu Sen, the Kyoto mechanics expert who had been so arrogant just now, followed her carefully and listened to her analysis of the building in front of her.
Everyone can see that Tao Nanfeng is really amazing! Her control over the safety of building structures has reached an incredible level. No wonder Fan Yajun invited her to watch when she went to the sixth floor to investigate, and Tao Nanfeng obeyed her orders. It shows that Tao Nanfeng is a person with real abilities.
Those who just thought that women could only stay at home to take care of children and cook, and that pregnant women came to the scene just to join in the fun, all shut their mouths obediently and waited for Tao Nanfeng to speak.
Fang Bo knew that there was no way to suppress Fan Yajun this time, so he thought about it and quietly said to the people from the fertilizer factory: "Can our design institute help you with the building restoration project?"
The fertilizer factory leader gave him a displeased look and said, "Your design institute? Forget it! Three groups of experts came, but none of them really found the problem. On the contrary, Tao Nanfeng found out at a glance that the sixth floor was overloaded. If we want to hire someone to do the repair work, we must ask Tao Nanfeng, Professor Tao, to do it."
The construction team members also laughed: "Yes, why bother to go far away? You people from the design institute... I think Fan Yajun is the only one who is responsible."
Dean Fang's face turned purple with anger and he could only grit his teeth.
Tao Nanfeng now just wanted to end the battle quickly and didn't want to get entangled any further. He took Party A for a walk, bent down, marked the green light column in his eyes, and said a series of professional terms.
Others couldn't understand it, but Liu Sen could.
——Using the complementary principle of piles and rafts, the foundation is specially treated to form a composite foundation reinforcement platform, and a three-dimensional support structure system is adopted for the walls on the periphery.
Liu Sen nodded as he listened. Although he was familiar with these methods, he could not be like Tao Nanfeng, who could start directing on the spot without any basic information or complicated mechanical calculations.
Where reinforcement is needed, where support is needed, where structural treatment is needed...it is clear and obvious.
In one word, awesome!
In the end, the leader of Party A was convinced and asked, "Mr. Tao, according to your opinion, can our office building still be used normally after the support reinforcement?"
When Tao Nanfeng heard the honorific title "Sir" for the first time, he was obviously a little embarrassed. She lowered her head and gently stroked her belly, which touched the little feet kicked out by Tingzhi and Tingyu.
Tao Nanfeng was very confident in her perception ability. When she raised her head, there was a gleam in her eyes: "Yes!"
The leaders of the fertilizer factory and the employees present cheered: "Yeah!"
That’s great! If the office building only needs repair and reinforcement, the fertilizer plant can save a lot of money! This building is a star project in the city and a treasure in the eyes of employees.
If it collapses, is damaged, and needs to be rebuilt, how much will it cost?
Ding Wangjian came over and asked, "What on earth is installed on the sixth floor?"
Tao Nanfeng glanced at him and said, "After the reinforcement, Director Ding can go up and open the door himself and see what will happen, right?"
Ding Wangjian touched his nose awkwardly, feeling that the woman in front of him was not easy to mess with.
Because Tao Nanfeng was still studying for a master's degree, the fertilizer factory decided to sponsor a scholarship and transfer the design consulting fee of 1,000 yuan to the account of the Department of Architecture of Jiangcheng Jianzhu University.
One thousand dollars! In the late 1970s when the monthly scholarship was 26 yuan, this thousand yuan was a huge sum of money.
The news spread quickly in Jiangcheng Architectural University, and every student expressed envy, admiration, and love for... Senior Sister Tao.
The magic of Tao Nanfeng is well known in Jiangcheng's construction industry.
It was late September 1979, two weeks before the due date. Tao Nanfeng lay leisurely on the rattan chair, eating the snacks brought by Fan Yajun, and listening to her report on the progress of the fertilizer factory office building.
"The foundation has been reinforced, the office building has been straightened, and the three rooms at the east end have been opened."
"What?"
"You can't even imagine it! The people from the Revolutionary Committee actually built a bunker with reinforced concrete inside, filled with gold and jewels collected from who knows where, saying it was to defend against some black weapons..."
"absurd!"
"Who said it wasn't? You have absolutely no common sense. Even if you were to dig a basement on the first floor, you wouldn't be so exaggerated."
"The public security department interrogated the director of the Revolutionary Committee overnight. He said that he was inspired by a book to build an aerial fortress."
Tao Nanfeng found it unbelievable: "So much cement, steel bars, and formwork had to be transported to the sixth floor. Did no one know?"
Fan Yajun shrugged: "Maybe, but who dares to say?"
The two looked at each other and laughed.
This smile pulled the abdominal muscles, causing a spasm-like pain and causing Tao Nanfeng's breathing to stagnate.
Fan Yajun asked nervously: "What's wrong?"
Tao Nanfeng supported herself on the rattan chair with her hands and slowly stood up: "I might be giving birth soon."
