People always have the most simple wishes, hope to have a good living environment, hope to be healthy, hope to make more money this year, and so on.

Butcher Xiao doesn't know Zhou Xiao's identity, but in their eyes, it must be the people above who can come down to investigate the environment. He also told his wishes and hoped that the environment in the village would be better.

Zhou Xiao couldn't give butcher Xiao an accurate answer at this time. He just said, "I'll reflect this to the above."

After receiving Zhou Xiao's reply, butcher Xiao was a little lost.

Many villagers who followed butcher Xiao also said:

"Now there are so many cancers in the village, it must be a problem of environmental pollution."

"Isn't it? In the past, there were many long-lived old people in our village. Now many people have cancer at the age of 40 or 50."

Mo Li estimated that the groundwater and air must have been polluted, which induced the group cancer of the villagers. She asked naively, "why don't you find a way to move away."

The villagers said, "where to move? The house price in the city is so expensive... "

"If I could move, I would have moved."

Now young people, who wants to stay in the village?

Those who can move and those who can buy a house in the city have already moved away, leaving behind are the old, the weak, the sick and the disabled, who rely on the land to earn hard money.

When Zhou Xiao saw that Mo Li and others were paying attention to environmental protection, he pulled the topic back and said, "the sampling should be faster."

"Oh! Ok... "

Seeing the environment in the village, everyone must feel bad.

In the city, unless a water purifier is installed at home, they don't drink tap water but bottled water.

But in the countryside not far from the city, many people still drink groundwater unconsciously.

The groundwater in recent years is different from that in decades ago. Now there are so many factories, and the groundwater has long been polluted.

Zhou Xiao suddenly thought, "Zhang Sheng, you and captain Xiao go to his house to get some water."

"OK!" Zhang Sheng took a cigarette out of his pocket, handed it to captain Xiao and said, "Captain Xiao, please."

"Oh, say that!"

In addition to sampling, Zhang Sheng is also responsible for the video and license plate of the experimental process. These materials are important materials in the experimental process.

Came to captain Xiao's home, Captain Xiao warmly greeted Zhang Sheng into the house.

Captain Xiao's daughter-in-law took out melons, fruits and cigarettes to entertain Zhang Sheng, which was politely declined by Zhang Sheng.

Here, Zhang Sheng saw captain Xiao's father basking in the sun in the yard.

The old man sat alone on the stool, wearing a thick cotton padded jacket, and there was a brazier under his feet.

Zhang Sheng greeted warmly: "good afternoon, uncle!"

The old man reluctantly cheered up, looked at Zhang Sheng, smiled, and then closed his eyes again.

Zhang Sheng asked with concern, "uncle's spirit doesn't look very good."

Captain Xiao was used to it and whispered, "you say my father? He is also a cancer, rectal cancer, which has metastasized to the lungs and brain. I only went to Jiangcheng people's hospital last week. The doctor said that at his age, surgery is meaningless. Chemotherapy is useless except for the pain of the elderly. Take it home as long as it lasts. "

Cancer, cancer, cancer again.

The word "cancer" in the mouth of the villagers is as simple and habitual as the common cold.

If the elderly are just lung cancer, they can be treated with symbiotic protein after surgery.

If the elderly are just rectal cancer, they still have a good survival period after surgery.

But the old man has both lung cancer and rectal cancer, and the cancer cells have transferred to the brain, resulting in the old man's hemiplegia and unable to speak, so the old man has to wait for death.

As children, all we can do is to make the old man happy and happy in his last days.

When Zhang Sheng saw this, he felt flustered and very uncomfortable.

Zhang Sheng is a medical student. He knows that in the case of the elderly, if conditions permit, he can go to the United States for targeted treatment, which can prolong the survival time.

But ordinary Xia people, many of whom have never taken a plane, have no conditions to go abroad for treatment.

The expensive medical expenses in the United States can't even afford the middle class in Xia, let alone ordinary people.

Zhang Sheng was very uncomfortable. He also felt deep powerlessness

After working for more than an hour, the sampling was completed.

The experimenters sampled domestic garbage, ditch water samples, Bailong River water samples, groundwater samples and soil.

Finally, thank the villagers and prepare to leave.

Zhou Xiao suddenly mentioned, "do you want to go to the factory opposite?"

Zhou Xiao pointed to the sewage outlet outside the factory and said, "we take samples here. The sewage has been diluted by the river. Anyway, we have to go to the industrial zone. If there are ready-made factories here, it's better to have a look."

"Really?" Mo Li has been unhappy since she entered the village.

She grew up in a honeypot. After graduation, she practiced in the hospital for a period of time and entered the laboratory of origin technology.

She believes that life is beautiful and that drinking pure water is a matter of course.

But after entering the village, she found that no matter how good the place is, there will be forgotten corners. Xia country is still a developing country. In recent years, everyone's living standards have made significant progress. Even in captain Xiao's village, everyone doesn't worry about food and drink. Even many people have bought cars, but we have to work harder to get a better life.

Mo Li thinks he has little power and can't do anything great, but he can figure out what the factories across the village do, provide evidence for law enforcement departments and create a better ecological environment for the people in the village.

Although it was across the river, there was no highway on both sides. Zhou Xiao drove around for more than ten kilometers to get across.

The opposite is also a village, but the economic conditions are a little better than butcher Xiao. Almost every household has access to the cement road, which may be the reason why there are many factories here.

At three o'clock in the afternoon, Zhou Xiao and others stopped to find someone to inquire about the factory.

"What does the factory in front of you do? Leather shoes! There are leather shoe factories around here. "

Leather shoes factory.

It is an industry with low technology content and high income, but it is also a high pollution industry.

The factory costs more than ten yuan and twenty yuan of leather shoes. They are marked with the brand logo and sold outside. They are dozens or even hundreds of yuan.

Don't underestimate these factories like small workshops. The owners behind them have at least millions of assets, all driving BMW and Land Rover.

Zhou Xiao and others strolled around to see if they had a chance to go to the sewage pipe by the river.

"Is everything ready?" Zhou Xiao asked.

"Of course!" Xu Yang holds several plastic bottles in his hand.

In order to be less conspicuous, the plastic bottle of mineral water is better than the reagent bottle in the laboratory.

Zhou Xiao said, "if you see the ridge in front of you, you can go down to the river. I, Zhang Sheng and Xu Yang go down, and Zhang Sheng takes videos with his mobile phone. Mo Li, you're in the car. Chen Hao, you drive. "

"I'm going!" Mo Li insisted, "according to the division of labor, I'm responsible for the sewage. Xu Yang, I'll change you."

Knowing that Mo Li was in a mood, Zhou Xiao said, "then Xu Yang is waiting for us in the car."

When they were near the river, they were choked by the pungent smell.

Mullite filled several bottles of water with plastic bottles, and filled those yellow white bubbles.

Zhou Xiao is familiar with the taste.

Zhou Xiao is a student of biology. One of the courses is to design environmental biology, which focuses on the BOD value (biological oxygen demand) and COD value (chemical oxygen demand) of sewage. These two are important biochemical indicators of sewage. Zhou Xiao once smelled this smell when he was doing experiments outdoors.

This is the taste of organic pollutants (including phenolic substances) and sulfide substances.

"Well, let's go and get some more." Mo Li whispered.

"What are you doing?" The loud scolding frightened the people.

Two strong men blocked the way of Zhou Xiao and others.

"What, what!"

Mo Li quickly put the bottle in her bag.

The two men didn't come down from above, but came out of the back door of the factory, so Zhang Sheng and they didn't find it.

In recent years, the environmental protection of Jiangcheng has been relatively strict. In order to avoid trouble, these factories generally do not discharge pollutants at night unless there are many orders, just like today.

When sewage is discharged during the day, someone will be watching. Zhou Xiao and others are watched.

In broad daylight, Zhou Xiao was not worried.

Zhou Xiao said, "let's come and have a look and go outing."

"What's in that woman's backpack! Take it out. "

Zhang Sheng said, "brother, can you do this? You're not JC. Why! You have to be reasonable. "

"You can take it if you want. There's so much nonsense! Labor and capital don't understand culture. Don't reason with me. "

Chinese characters have tattoos on their hands. These people are usually bastards in the village. Maybe they have been squatting in the Bureau for a few years. They only listen to the boss for money and make no sense.

Zhou Xiao nodded and said, "Mo Li, take out the bottle."

"But!" Mo Li was reluctant! All the data in the bottle will not only improve the experiment of digestive bacteria, but also prove to the relevant departments that the factory here has been banned, but also provide a clean environment for the opposite village.

Mo Li also knows the current situation. People can't leave without handing in the bottle.

Mo Li took out the plastic bottle and the strong man grabbed it.

He also scolded and said, "where are you shameless wild reporters? Do you know where this is! Dare to sample in the river, don't die! "

Zhou Xiao was calm and said, "can we go now?"

"Go what go! You're still taking a mobile camera! " The man scolded: "search, search, and see if there is anything else. These reporters are thieves."

The situation at the scene was very bad. Not only Zhou Xiao was surrounded here, but also the car nearby was surrounded.

Moreover, the car is surrounded by basically factory workers, most of whom may also be villagers in the village.

Occasionally, a passing villager took a look and walked away. He was not surprised at this.

This is not only the industrial chain, but also a very thorny problem.

These small workshop factories have indeed seriously polluted the environment, but it is undeniable that they have brought income to the village. Many young people work here and may still count on this salary.

In the face of environmental protection and life, the devil cares whether your river is clean or not.
