Before the official start of construction, Zheng Quchi asked the workers to organize the craftsmen to carry out safety training and guidance.
Anyone who has worked on a construction site knows that in actual engineering construction, various construction safety accidents always occur frequently, which not only bring property losses but also personal injuries, and in serious cases, can be a devastating blow to a family.
She knew that in feudal society, equality of human rights was not emphasized. In the eyes of slave owners, a human life was probably just the value of a piece of property.
But her concept is different. She cherishes human life, so she attaches great importance to the safety of her projects.
It's a pity that only a few people came, or those who came did not come, and they all kept nagging her for a long time without taking her seriously.
She also clearly understands that she currently does not have enough prestige, so she can only reiterate it as strictly as possible, urging the craftsmen time and time again that safety ropes must be fastened in areas with steep and slippery terrain, or when working at high altitudes.
But no matter how rigorous the security system is, it cannot guarantee that there will be no accidents.
In particular, these craftsmen were accustomed to blind confidence in their own hands and feet. They found it troublesome and did not use the method of tying the descending safety rope that she taught. Therefore, it snowed for a while, and their feet were slippery. If they lost their balance, they would fall.
The craftsman who accidentally fell, during the fall, instinctively reached out to grab anything that could be grabbed or climbed along the way. It might be a stone or a branch, but it only provided a buffer.
He couldn't help his weight, it was pulled loose and broken, and he couldn't control it and continued to slide down.
The most worrying thing is that at the end of this long slope, it looks like it has been cut with a knife, forming a vertical section. The highest point is at least twenty meters above the ground.
If this person fell straight down from above, he would either die or be injured.
No, perhaps we can make a bolder conclusion that death is inevitable.
Zheng Quchi saw the slipper trying to save himself, tightening the root of a finger thick, desperately trying to stop the sliding speed.
Her heart was beating very fast at this time, and the blood in her body was boiling, but her mind was extremely calm.
There was no pause or hesitation at all. All movements were as if they were instinctive. He rushed to the crane parked aside in a few steps. His light-colored pupils were like moving mechanical eyes. He collected patterns and extracted information, quickly calculating distances, angles, and time...
The object slides down at high speed, V is the speed, v+at, initial velocity, acceleration...
At the same time, her body did not stop. Her arms sank, her lower body stabilized, and she used all her strength to push the heavy crane up.
Someone heard the noise and suddenly looked back. The next second, they were all stunned.
Under the crane, there were six wheels half as tall as a man. They were originally firmly fixed on the ground, but now they were shaking and being pushed forward with difficulty.
She... she was the only one who actually pushed a crane that only six people could pull to move? !
Fuck, what an amazing power!
No, what is she doing? What was she doing pushing the crane at this time?
Some people think fast enough.
Does she think that she can catch people falling from above with just a crane?
This is simply impossible to do. Although the trajectory of a person rolling down from a height seems to be vertical, if there is an angle in the middle, the falling position will be offset by an unknown amount.
Besides, the boom of this crane is narrow and there is no net or hanging board attached. The probability is almost the same as threading through a pinhole. It is very difficult to align it in one go and then pass it smoothly. You need to practice the angle. Finally Slow work produces fine work.
Why does she think she can handle such an urgent situation now?
Zheng Quchi had no time to pay attention to other people's doubts and jokes.
Arriving at the approximate position she had calculated, Zheng Quchi jumped onto the console before he could take a breath.
She moved the direction of the boom and then adjusted the height. It seemed like an unthinking move, but it was the result of careful calculation. Then, her eyes remained motionless as she focused on the fallen person.
I saw that he finally couldn't hold on any longer and fell down the rocky slope to the edge of the cliff with a howl. The next moment he saw that he was about to fall from a height to the ground and be smashed into pieces like a smashed tomato.
"Oh my god, it fell!"
"If you fall from such a height, you won't be able to survive. You won't be able to survive."
All of them watched with nervous bated breath. Some seemed to anticipate the tragic death of that person next, and quickly covered their eyes, sighing and shaking their heads.
The wheels of the cart went round and round, and the man fell from the steep slope to the end——
Immediately afterwards, the person flew into the air, just like a parabola, shouting "Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh" and threw it to the highest point. At this time, Zheng Quchi had already been prepared.
She zeroed in on his position and moved the crane arm accurately below him in just one second. He hit the crane arm with a "snap", blocking most of the force of the rush.
Everyone has the instinct to survive. When he was about to slip and fall, he used up his last bit of strength and hurriedly grabbed the crane arm with his hands and feet.
His mind went blank, and he couldn't even think about why a "life-saving straw" appeared next to him at this time.
Zheng Quchi controlled the crane arm again and slowly lowered the person down.
The man was finally reborn after the disaster, lying on the ground unable to help sobbing and fearing. Zheng Quchi was already covered in sweat, and his eyes were a little tired.
Swallowed.
The others were stunned and looked at the rescued person with disbelief. He actually cried a little selflessly... He was very lucky.
How come...you were rescued?
They looked at Zheng Quchi stupidly again.
What kind of god is she? Is this a coincidence or is she really capable? !
If it was really a coincidence, why didn't they believe it? After all, what she just did was very purposeful, without any hesitation or flinching.
If they really had the ability, then why wouldn't they have their faces swollen to make amends for all the doubts and slander they just made?
Master Li came over from behind, and glanced at her with his snow-green eyes. He saw that she had only been in such a mess for a while to save an unrelated person. He was about to speak, but the next moment she was stopped by her. His rampage shocked the spot.
But she saw a burst of flames burst out of her eyes, and she roared——
"Who the hell told you not to wear a safety rope?! Did you turn a deaf ear to what I said?! I can't control it anymore, okay, from today on, I won't care about it, okay? After all, it's your life, and It's not mine, why should I be more nervous and worried than you guys who are looking for death!"
Her chest was rising and falling violently, her arms were shaking uncontrollably, and her eyes were widened with a layer of moist red due to anger and anxiety. Her whole body was like an angry little leopard.
For a moment, everyone's eardrums were buzzing from her roar, but at this moment, they seemed to have been wiped out of their long-standing arrogance. They all lowered their heads, and no one dared to refute her words.
Yes, seeing her covered in sweat, her clothes disheveled, and panting was enough to prove that she was really trying her best to save people just now.
Come to think of it, there has never been a construction project in the past where some people didn't die. Over time, they even felt that death was actually a normal thing.
Not long ago, when she was conducting safety training, she said that if you don't pay attention to safety and risk your life, there is no use making money.
They only found it funny and even laughed at it.
As for these officials, who only know how to order the craftsmen to work hard to meet the construction deadline, who cares whether one or two craftsmen will die during this period.
What she does is just a pretentious show, trying to win people's hearts. Knowing that she is not convinced, she deliberately does some sensational things to gain prestige for herself.
But now, no one thinks so.
Some people talk a lot, but when it comes to doing things, they just hold back.
But I didn't expect that if something really happened, she would really take it seriously, even more than they did.
The scene just now of her pushing the crane with all her strength and the veins on her forehead bulging out is still shocking enough when I think about it now.
And she used the crane arm to see the right opportunity to save the fallen craftsman. She was calm in the face of danger. When others would just give up in a hurry, she rushed to the front without hesitation...
Now that they were scolded by her, they not only felt guilty, but also ashamed.
"Yes, I'm sorry, we will pay attention to it in the future."
"Yes, yes, I will never do it again."
The craftsman who had just fallen had no idea that he could still survive. He finally stopped crying and remembered that he seemed to have been intercepted by a crane in mid-air. Relying on this buffering relay, he was able to pick up a piece of Life.
He looked at Zheng Quchi next to the crane, endured the pain all over his body, crawled over and kowtowed heavily to her.
"Thank you, Sang Gong, thank you! Woo hoo..."
This man, Zheng Quchi, had not taken a closer look before, but he looked somewhat familiar at this glance.
She remembered, wasn't he the opponent who had recently teamed up with several other hard-fought craftsmen to try, secretly or covertly, to stumble her and make her look embarrassed?
Did she know that when he mentioned her to others in private, they were all that black boy and black boy who spoke with disdain and disdain, but now he was willing to call her "Sang Gong" in tears.
Zheng Quchi was originally very angry, so angry that her heart ached, but as soon as others admitted their mistake, apologized and thanked her, she couldn't stay angry anymore.
She looked at the big men who lowered their heads one by one, but she still had to raise their necks to talk to them. They used to be tall and powerful, but now they were trained by her like grandchildren.
She said: "I won't be able to save you every time, but I will do my best to create a safe environment so that you can minimize accidents. The most important thing is... I have to pay attention to protecting myself at this moment. , you should all have families, the old and the young rely on their labor outside to earn money to go home. If something unexpected happens to you, what will they do?"
"I'm sorry, it's us lard who are so blinded that we actually take things like this to be angry."
"We must listen to your arrangements. If you are told to fasten the safety rope, we will listen to the one who was given the safety training."
"Yes, yes."
She saw that they were all hurriedly promising themselves, and they were extremely sincere. Zheng Quchi frowned, but the two-meter-eight-meter-high flame that had just risen had now faded by more than half.
"Okay, in short, if this kind of thing will never happen again, please remember it. It's snowing tonight and another accident happened. The fortifications are temporarily suspended until tomorrow depending on the weather conditions. You can take the injured to the doctor in the shanty to have a look."
Seeing that she finally calmed down and no longer lectured them in the ice and snow, but even chased them away, these burly men were all happy and returned quickly.
"Okay, okay."
After this incident, Zheng Quchi became more concerned about safety.
She had people build ladders, hangers, gantry-type scaffolding, etc. In short, it cannot be simply carried out cumbersomely by manpower. If you can use tools, use tools.
On the other hand, some craftsmen thought that the things she made were unnecessary at first, but once they started working on them, they found that they were unexpectedly useful and convenient, and their faces immediately changed, and they all secretly admired her.
This man is not only a carpenter, he is also a good hand in fortification and infrastructure construction.
It’s true that geniuses have emerged from youth since ancient times. The truly precocious craftsmen can look down on ordinary people in their teens. But those of them who are still unable to reach the crafts level in their decades have to accept that it is God who rewards talents. ah.
Precisely because Zheng Quchi attached great importance to engineering and the construction safety of craftsmen, this city wall construction project actually caused the lowest number of injuries to craftsmen in the history of Ye State.
There used to be a saying in Fu County that building a city wall in the Guixuan Ridge area was almost like going to die. Some people even said that that place was basically the cemetery of craftsmen.
But now, these statements seem to be false.
After almost a month, the repair and construction of various sections of the city wall have achieved remarkable results. The efficiency of the fortifications far exceeded the expectations of all the workers. Even so far, all the craftsmen and laborers involved in the city wall fortifications have , no one died...
Nowadays, in the entire Fu County craftsmen's association, whoever mentions "Sang Xuanqing" must be silent for a moment, and then say - this kid really has something in him.
——
Yu Wensheng listened to Wei Yao and described to him with excitement and vividness how Sang Xuanqing rescued people in an emergency and saved people in danger that night.
He stared at the falling snowflakes outside the window lattice. This was the second snowfall after the first snowfall. Although the snow this time was not heavy, it lingered for a long time.
"You really admire her, and you rush to her to ask for a reward for the smallest thing." Yu Wensheng said casually.
Wei Yao had a shy face and said with a dry smile: "This, this is not because she went astray in the past, her status is not very good, I want to fight for her to be lenient with the general, and besides... Sang Xuanqing is this person , It’s really not bad. She always works hard in her life and never cares about it. If the general feels that his subordinates’ eyes are biased, then every one of the craftsmen can’t be wronged. They are now secretly Who among you doesn’t praise Sang Xuanqing’s conduct and work?”
Yu Wensheng thought of Sang Xuanqing's little dark face, and the facial features that had always been blurred in the past gradually seemed to have left an impression in his mind.
I have to say that Sang Xuanqing... did gain enough chips for herself to survive.
But this is not enough. As long as she can successfully pass the "test" in the next level, he can try to break his past routine and not care about her past work for the Mo family and the Julu Kingdom.
