Chapter 163: Gambling

"Let's go out and have a look?" Chen Xiangshui said. There is no way to defeat this. You can't wait for the fire to come here!

Everyone agreed, but Xu Fan knew that this was useless. He had already discovered in his mind that it was basically impossible for him to pass through the 15th and 14th floors of the safe passage. Now the staff on the 15th floor are using foam fire extinguishers to extinguish the fire and retreating to the 16th floor. If they can go down, would they still need to retreat?

As expected by Xu Fan, everyone left the calligraphy and painting room. After turning a corner, there was a door with a safe passage. When they opened the door, they saw thick smoke everywhere below, and the temperature was too high, so they immediately retreated.

After returning to the calligraphy and painting studio, everyone was confused. Now they went down and were even more worried about death when they went up. They couldn’t jump off the building, but it was the 16th floor. If they jumped down, they would definitely turn into a pile of meat sauce!

If the people standing here are standing outside to deal with this emergencies, they will probably be able to calmly command various units to fight together. But the problem is that they are in the center of the fire and are about to become victims of the fire. At this time, they are just confused and have performed much better than ordinary people. I guess most ordinary people will have some hysterical performance in this situation!

I just celebrated the birthday party happily, but now I suddenly realized that my life is about to end. The difference between the two is really unacceptable!

"Dear leaders, should we prepare?" Xu Fan slightly used the Holy Court missionary to make everyone feel more at ease, and then said, "First collect the calligraphy and paintings on the wall, these are all flammable items."

"Yes!" Hearing Xu Fan's words, everyone took action immediately. At this time, they were afraid that no one would stand up and would die faster while sitting and waiting for death!

The wooden screen, paper calligraphy and painting, and other flammable items were all piled up in a corner. While everyone breathed a sigh of relief, they all turned their eyes to Xu Fan. Mr. Chen asked, "Xiao Xu, what should we do now?"

You just gave the order, so now do you give some instructions too?

Xu Fan was a little amused and hilarious. You guys have seen many more scenes than me, and they should have more experience than me. But since I asked, it would be better to find something for them to do, so he said: "Go to the bathroom to wet all the towels. When the smoke comes up, you can use them to block your mouth and nose."

These towels are used to cleanse the writer's hands and come in handy at this time.

There was another rush, but after the matter was over, it was fine again. This time Xu Fan didn't know what to order them to do, so he spread his hands and signaled that he was powerless.

However, in order to reassure everyone, Xu Fanba called Zheng Muyue, the city fire brigade leader: "Muyue, a fire broke out in the Jing Hyatt Hotel. Has your fire brigade sent someone here?"

"Director, don't worry, I have sent out all the treasures of our detachment. No problems will be caused." Zheng Muyue said in a relaxed tone.

But after hearing this, Xu Fan almost fell to the ground. The "treasure of the team" mentioned by Zheng Muyue is the domestic Steyr 32-meter climbing car purchased in 1996. The operating height of this thing is less than 10 floors, and it is overdue. Now all the performances are completely unable to meet the requirements for dealing with fires in high-rise buildings!

Is it meaningful for you to get this thing here?

"Hurry up, Mr. Chen, Secretary Xiong of the Municipal Party Committee, Minister Chen of the Provincial Party Committee Organization Department, and several leaders were trapped in the hotel. If something went wrong, you know the consequences!" Xu Fan said.

"Ah! What?" Zheng Muyue yelled, it was over, but when he thought, it wasn't right, how could Director Xu know so clearly? Could it be...

"Director, are you trapped inside too?" Zheng Muyue asked cautiously.

"Yes, the leaders and I are in the 16th floor calligraphy and painting studio. Give me a speed!" Xu Fan said.

"It's coming soon, it's coming soon!" Zheng Muyue ran out while replying to the phone, and shouting, "Brother, search the guy and go and save our Director Xu!"

Xu Fan's face was covered with black lines when he heard this. Those who didn't know what to do would think you were gangsters who were planning to break into someone else's hall to save the boss!

After hanging up the phone, Xu Fan said to everyone: "Haha, please rest assured, the fire brigade will arrive immediately."

Xiong Pingsheng, as the secretary of the municipal party committee, sighed when he heard this. He also knew about the equipment of the fire brigade. In the past few years, the city was in poverty and quarreled. This year, he made a small fortune by taking advantage of the east wind of Tiefan Group. However, there were too many leaks in the past, and he asked for money everywhere. Departments like the fire brigade were naturally ranked behind him.

Moreover, if you want to build a firefighting force that you can make, the money you need is not ordinary. A 32-meter intelligent shock-absorbing straight-arm ladder fire truck will cost 6.7 million yuan, and you can’t just buy one. If you want to adapt to the current construction situation in Tianyan City, the ladder truck alone must be equipped with at least 55 meters, 42 meters and 32 meters in three specifications. Just these three treasures will cost more than 20 million!

And you can’t just rely on ladder trucks when doing firefighting. Other equipment adds up in a variety of ways, and it’s a headache to think about it!

Of course, if you expect in advance that you will be trapped in this environment one day, you have to buy these things even if you tighten your belt. However, it is too late to say anything now!

When others saw Xiong Pingsheng's appearance, they knew that things were not as optimistic as Xu Fan said. Mr. Chen asked, "Pingsheng, isn't the situation good?"

Xiong Pingsheng nodded silently.

Mr. Chen sighed deeply, sat on the chair, and said to everyone: "Sit all, alas, it's the old man who has harmed you. If you don't hold this birthday party, there will be no such thing as this now!"

"Old man, no one expected this kind of thing to say," Xiong Pingsheng hurriedly persuaded.

Mr. Chen waved his hand and said, "I am so old, and there is nothing to regret when I leave now. But you, especially you, Xiao Xu, your life has just begun!"

Such a great talent is actually ruined tonight. Is it really a jealous talent? It's such a pity. Judging from the contacts of these few hours tonight, this young man is definitely a talent of generals and ministers. It will be of great benefit to the country and the people for decades!

"Mr. Chen, isn't it a bit too early to say these words? Aren't we sitting here and chatting?" Xu Fan said with a smile.

"Haha, Xiao Xu, you have a good mentality. At this critical moment, you can still be so relaxed. I admire you!" Mr. Chen also smiled.

The other leaders were infected by the two, and the atmosphere was no longer so depressing. Just let it go, it would be a big deal!

"If you don't call someone you want to contact, it may be the last time. Cherish this opportunity!" Mr. Chen said.

When everyone heard this, they felt it was reasonable, so they took out their cell phones, called their families, and explained their "following things".

Of course, Xu Fan had no intention of making a phone call. He stretched his head out the window and carefully observed the external building form of the hotel to see if there was any possibility of breaking out from outside.

"Xiao Xu, don't look at it. This is the 16th floor. Oh, call your parents and fiancée, so as not to regret it when you want to call!" Mr. Chen persuaded Xu Fan when he saw him casually.

When Xu Fan saw that everyone was like separation from life and death, he did not dare to act too special, so he called Cao Keer: "Keer, are you free tomorrow night?"

"I have time! What's the matter?"

"How about watching a movie? I made an appointment with the little boy in our bureau and his girlfriend. Then we will go together." The little boy was sent home by Xu Fan at the end of the banquet. After all, I don't know when his group and his group would talk to the studio.

"Okay, see you all. How about the birthday party tonight? The Chen family is not doing well, right?"

"It's okay, I had a very speculative chat with Mr. Chen, haha, everything went smoothly."

"See you tomorrow!"

"See you tomorrow!"

Mr. Chen had already finished the phone call with his daughter and grandson. At this time, Lu Qingfeng was chatting with his wife and son in a grief, so he happened to hear the phone call between Xu Fan and Cao Keer on the side, and couldn't help laughing and said, "Xiao Xu, you are so sure that you can go to the movie with Miss Cao alive tomorrow."

Xu Fan shrugged and said, "I have to give myself a hope, right? What do you think?"

Mr. Chen has a deeper understanding of Xu Fan's nature and is full of hope for life. If such a person makes great achievements in the officialdom, what changes will a breeze bring to the political circle of Tianyan City like a breeze?!

As time passed slowly, everyone said goodbye, the atmosphere began to suppress again, and the thick smoke from outside gradually floated in, and even using wet clothes to block the cracks in the door, it was useless.

The old man started to cough heavily, and the old man was the oldest and the weakest.

Xu Fan looked down at the window and saw that the firefighters had arrived, but the "treasure of the town team" was really useless. The firefighters below could only use fire extinguishers to extinguish the fire from the thirteenth floor. This efficiency made Xu Fan shook his head. It would take a year and a month to extinguish the fire. It seemed that the fire brigade was indeed not suitable for the fire extinguishing task of high-rise buildings in Tianyan City now!

It seems that it will not be possible to show off one's skills. Xu Fan said to Chen Xiangshui and Lu Qingfeng: "Two, you have seen the current situation. Why don't you let me carry Mr. Chen and try it out of the window!"

At this time, the old man couldn't speak, so he could only ask Chen Xiangshui and Lu Qingfeng, who were closest to him.

"Uh! Climb down from here?" Chen Xiangshui said in shock.

"Yes, I want to give it a try, anyway..." Xu Fan said seriously.

Chen Xiangshui and Lu Qingfeng looked at each other. This was a bet on the old man's life. However, if you don't gamble at this time, in a few minutes, you will probably not even have the chance to gamble!
