Chapter 466

"Academician Chen, Vice Mayor Zhao asked me to give this to you." It has become the command room of Chen Xin's office. A staff member of the municipal government handed a document and a letter to Chen Xin with a very solemn expression.

Chen Xin took the things from the staff and was surprised. He asked, "what's this?"

"This is the result of the public opinion survey on whether to carry out the post disaster reconstruction work in the original urban area, and a letter from the people in the resettlement sites to the municipal government. After reading it, Vice Mayor Zhao asked me to pass it on to you. He said you should have a look at it." It seems that the staff have read this letter. They look sad and excited, but more proud.

"OK, I'll see it." Chen Xin seems to be aware of something, seriously nodded.

After the staff left, Chen Xin opened the document in his hand, and the letter was put aside temporarily.

It can be said that the result of the public opinion survey is in Chen Xin's expectation, but it is beyond his expectation.

More than 90% of the people who survived supported the reconstruction of the city and chose the option of rebuilding on the original site of the city.

People support urban reconstruction, which is of course what Chen Xin expected. After all, Yanguo people have always said that people leave their hometown. Although migrants can be resettled to safer places, they are always far away from their hometown and become rootless duckweeds.

If there is no way, who would be willing to stay away from the familiar place and living environment and go to a strange place?

This is the result of the public opinion survey. Chen Xin was not surprised at all. Perhaps the only thing that surprised him was that 90% of the people supported the reconstruction of this road on the original site of the city.

This is really beyond Chen Xin's expectation.

In particular, there is a special note at the bottom of this article, which is written with a pen, and this sentence also makes Chen Xin feel deeply shocked.

This sentence is very simple, but when Chen Xin read it, he felt that every word was more and more important.

"All the people of our city accept and understand the damage to the remains of the victims caused by the reconstruction work."

In a short sentence, it seems very simple at first glance, and the meaning is also very clear. There is no misunderstanding or ambiguity.

But the more so, the more you can feel the weight behind this sentence.

It's not one or two bodies or the simple consent of one or two people. It's the hard and great choice made by the bodies of 100000 victims and 200000 survivors suffering from the loss of their loved ones under great grief and grief.

The choice they made was to give up the remains of their relatives, not only to give up the collection of their relatives, but also to maintain the integrity of their bodies after death.

Life and death matter, in the state of Yan, whether the dead can get peace after death is a very important thing.

In the traditional culture of Yan state, we are very particular about the things behind the dead, not only death as life, but also whether the body of the dead is complete and whether they can be buried in the earth.

If the dead can not be buried, or the body is incomplete when buried, it means that the soul of the dead can not get rest, and will sink into the world forever to bear suffering.

This is a very taboo thing in the traditional culture of Yan state. Even though some feudal bad habits in modern society have been abandoned, the grief and respect for the dead relatives still make Yan people pay great attention to the peace of the dead.

Even in modern society, it is still a taboo thing to be unable to collect the body of the dead and let it be exposed in the wilderness. It is also a great disrespect for the dead and the living.

But now, the 200000 survivors of this city have chosen a very painful choice for them.

Chen Xin did not dare to think about how the survivors, who suffered from the loss of their homes and relatives, made such a decision, and what kind of sacrifice it represented.

Although the living people are more important than the dead, in the current environment and situation, it is the most important thing to let more people live.

But it's not just a cold body.

They were living people not long ago. They are our most important relatives and friends. Now that they have passed away, it is a great blow to the living and an unbearable emotional pain.

Now not only can't collect their bodies, but also rebuild their homes on the ruins where their bodies are buried, and flatten the ruins where their bodies are buried. As a result, their bodies are incomplete and they can't live in peace. This is not easy to accept in terms of emotion, morality and ethics.

In fact, even if everyone is against flattening the ruins, Chen Xin thinks it is understandable.

Now, however, the choice of 200000 people has been placed in front of him. They have chosen the most painful option for themselves.

Chen Xin felt very heavy in his heart. He bit his lip, put down his opinion survey report, pinched the bridge of his nose, and then picked up the letter sent with the opinion survey report.Although I don't know who wrote this letter and what content it contains, Chen Xin thinks it should have the answer he wants.

With a sense of awe, Chen Xin began to read the letter.

The letter is written on a piece of white paper. It can be seen that it is only a piece of paper temporarily found. There are even some stains on the paper, but it does not hinder reading.

Because the content of the letter is not long, only a few lines.

"The earthquake took away our relatives and friends. Their bodies were buried under the ruins and could not be collected. This is really a very painful thing."

"But the dead are gone. Although it's very difficult and painful to make such a decision, I'm still willing to agree with the municipal government's decision to flatten the ruins and rebuild my home."

"Although there are still remains of my family under the ruins, the living are more important than the dead."

"Only by rebuilding their homes can more people live."

"Flattening the ruins and destroying the remains is really unacceptable."

"My family has left me forever. It's really sad and painful, but I can't let other people's families leave them because of myself."

"If I am also one of the victims, and if my body is still buried under the ruins, please take my body as the cornerstone of my new home. This is the only strength I can contribute."

"Dead I have no hope, living people, please take my share of the future, build a new home."
