Chapter 162 City Cleaning (55)

The next day, the Beijing Military Control Commission officially issued a mobilization order.

Call on all the people in the city to clean up the city, actively eliminate snakes, insects, rats and ants, and reduce the spread of various diseases.

Prevent various epidemic diseases that may occur next spring.

After the broadcast,

The deaf old lady, Jia Zhang, Aunt Yi and other women who made shoes and socks at home to support the front line all put down their work and

They picked up brooms, dustpans, shovels and other tools and started cleaning the courtyard and Maoer Hutong.

Then it slowly spread to Nanluoguxiang.

Finally, the ash, vegetable roots, leaves, waste paper, broken tiles, scrap iron, house debris and other garbage were collected and piled up at the place designated by the street government.

He Yuzhu and a few others also drove a large truck to various alleys to collect garbage.

As soon as he drove the truck to the garbage storage point in Maoer Hutong, He Yuzhu found that there were already people coming and going here, and the garbage had piled up into a small hill more than one meter high.

The neighbors were in a good mood when they saw He Yuzhu coming to collect the garbage so quickly.

He smiled and greeted her.

"Zhu Zi, why are you here so early? The Military Control Commission acted very quickly this time!"

"It's not going to be easy, Uncle Ma.

In March, I also participated in the city-wide cleanup.
At that time, the Military Control Commission did not have enough trucks, so the garbage in Nanluoguxiang could not be transported out of the city after being cleared, and instead piled up into several garbage mountains.

You cursed the leaders of the Military Control Commission at that time.
They are full of bad ideas.
The garbage that was originally spread out on the ground was piled up into such a high hill, which was really an eyesore.

This has severely dampened your enthusiasm for continuing to clean up."

When they heard He Yuzhu say that they had scolded the leaders of the Military Control Commission, Ma Yukuan and the others all rubbed their heads in embarrassment.
"Zhuzi Zhuzi, for the sake of our neighbors, please say less.
Were we not very angry at that time?

You see, the Military Control Commission later promulgated the "Interim Measures for the Transportation of Garbage by Empty Trucks out of the City of Beiping".
Hard regulations,
When cars, rickshaws, animal-drawn carts, rickshaws, etc., whether public or private, need to help transport garbage when leaving the city,
We ordinary people have also responded positively, even rickshaw drivers have come to haul the garbage.”

Seeing that they had given in, He Yuzhu stopped pestering them.

"you do not say,
Last time, it was thanks to the active response of the people in the city, otherwise, when the heavy rain came in July, who knows what would have become of our Beijing!
This time, the Military Control Commission was fully prepared and had prepared enough cars and gasoline in advance.

It is to ensure good logistics support and transport the garbage cleared by everyone out of the city in a timely manner.

I won’t give you any chance to scold us.”

Hearing what He Yuzhu said, the Military Control Commission had no intention of pursuing them, and the neighbors all laughed.

"No, our Beijing garbage has been piled up in the city for more than 10 years.
Everyone has gotten used to it.

The military control makes us work so hard to clean up all the garbage on the ground, which is piled up like a small mountain and cannot be transported away. Isn't it just a waste of time to take off your pants to fart?

Not only is it more annoying to look at, but you also get nothing in return for all the hard work.
The common people would be jumping up and down and cursing!"

"Look how good it is now. The garbage has just piled up a little bit and you drove over here.

We ordinary people see that the Military Control Commission is really doing practical things.
Then the enthusiasm will be aroused!"

"Hurry up, hurry up, Zhuzi, please park the car. We will start loading it right away. Once it's loaded, you can transport it out as soon as possible."

"Okay, then you guys make way and I'll reverse the car." After parking the car, He Yuzhu jumped out of the cab, picked up the shovel next to him and started helping to load the garbage into the basket next to him.

Not long after, the deaf old lady and her friends came over with the garbage.
He Yushui ran quickly to He Yuzhu holding a dustpan.
"Brother, look, I helped too!"

"Okay, okay, our rain is really well behaved, that's great!"

Hearing her brother's praise, He Yushui smiled and narrowed her eyes, then pointed at the truck and said,

"Brother, I want to take a ride. Can you take Zhaodi and me for a ride?"

At this time, the deaf old ladies also came over.

"Zhu Zi, Yu Shui and Zhao Di can't help much, take them out for a walk!"

After hearing what the deaf old lady said and looking at the eager eyes of his two younger sisters, He Yuzhu smiled and agreed.
"Okay, it's just a ride, you guys come with me to haul the garbage later."

"Good! Good! Brother, you are so nice."

Not only were the neighbors busy cleaning up, but even students like Xu Damao, led by their teacher, rushed to the street with their tools in hand.
When Xu Damao and his friends were carrying the garbage to the storage point, they happened to see He Yuzhu carrying his two sisters into the cab.

This guy immediately came over and made a request.

"Zhu Zi, please take me with you.

I have never ridden in a car other than a commuter bus and a tram, so let me ride in a truck."

Seeing this guy coming to him, He Yuzhu pointed at the dirt and garbage on the truck.
"You can see that what I transported this time was all garbage.
At that time, you will not only have to help load the truck, but also help to rest when we get there. As long as you don't mind the dirt, the smell, and don't complain about the hardship or tiredness, then come along!
I guarantee you’ll vomit from riding in the car!”

Seeing that He Yuzhu agreed to take him with him, Xu Damao felt very proud and nodded vigorously with excitement.

"No problem, I have to work if I carry garbage with you. I have to work if I stay in the city. Of course I choose to take the bus!"

After saying that, the guy threw the garbage in his hand into the car.
Then he went to show off to Yan Jiecheng, Liu Guangqi and his classmates.

But all of Xu Damao's classmates were residents of Nanluoguxiang, and most of them were childhood friends of He Yuzhu.

When he heard that he could take the bus, he ran to He Yuzhu and started shouting.

Looking at these young men talking at once, He Yuzhu felt overwhelmed and had no choice but to run away first.
"Alright, alright, just do your job honestly.
I'll talk to you after I finish this trip.

I will take care of whoever works hard, and don't be lazy, the uncles and aunts are watching you!"

"Don't worry, Zhuzi. As long as you take us for a ride, we will definitely not be lazy!"

"Yes, yes, I promise not to be lazy!"

Asking Xu Damao to go to the co-pilot seat and squeeze in with his two sisters, He Yuzhu took out a Z-shaped iron rod from the cab, walked to the front of the car, inserted it into the engine, and began to turn it vigorously.

As soon as Xu Damao and his two sisters sat on the passenger seat, they immediately became excited and kept looking around, unable to calm down.

I heard the sound of the engine coming from the front of the car.

The mouth also began to imitate.

He Yuzhu couldn't help but laugh when he saw this scene, and remembered what he looked like when he was a child.
