Chapter 513 Ways to deal with fire
It has become the practice of the Great Qin Dynasty Hall to ask the prince in case of trouble!
Ying Zheng's trust in Ying Yu, of course, needless to say, whenever Ying Zheng encounters any difficulties, the first person Ying Zheng thinks of is his eldest son, Prince Ying Yu.
"Father, in my opinion, as one of the most common disasters, fire is too destructive, and countless lives and property are swallowed up by it."
"In recent years, fires have occurred frequently in Daqin, not just in a specific area. In fact, this can already explain a problem, that is, in terms of fire protection, in addition to the lack of due diligence of relevant officials, Daqin itself There are also quite a few deficiencies in the methods of protection and response to fires, so if you want to solve the current situation of frequent fires, you must prescribe the right medicine, starting with changing the methods of protection and response to fires.”
Ying Yu pondered for a while, then spoke.
Hearing Ying Yu's words, all the ministers in the DPRK and China nodded in agreement.
After all, if there are frequent fires in one area, it can be said that the officials in this area have neglected their duties and did not stick to their posts. But now that fires are happening in various places, then this is not just a problem of the officials in charge.
"Looking at you, it seems that you already have a countermeasure in your mind. Tell me in detail and let me listen to your suggestion."
Ying Zheng said.
"Father, when I heard about the fire in Xianyang City just now, I did have some ideas. Therefore, I think that fire prevention should be divided into four parts: understanding fire, preventing fire, preventing fire, and fighting fire. "
"Knowing fire, as the name suggests, is to understand fire and know fire. As the saying goes, knowing yourself and the enemy will never end a hundred battles, and the same is true for preventing fire."
"We can use private schools, universities, books, etc. as platforms for knowledge popularization across the country to popularize the composition of flames to the public, and let the public know clearly that their actions may cause fires and cause fires. Your own vigilance, so as to fundamentally reduce the occurrence of fire."
Ying Yu said loudly.
"But Your Royal Highness, although our Great Qin is now prosperous and prosperous, and the education popularization at all stages is relatively in place, after all, some places are relatively remote, lack educational institutions, and have no relevant books. Then I don't know what to do in these places?"
Dunwei asked questions beside him.
"If it is an area where there are few educational institutions, then specially send officials to these rural towns to gather the people, hold lectures, and teach them about the fire and the conditions that cause the fire."
"In addition, you can also assign classroom tasks to the students in the classroom and encourage them who know the fire and know the fire to make more publicity, so as to achieve the effect of spreading the word to ten, ten to hundreds."
Ying Yu replied.
"So that's the case, I understand the fire, but what about other aspects?"
Ying Zheng nodded, and then asked.
"After understanding fire, it is natural to eliminate fire. The elimination of flame here does not mean that people are not allowed to use fire, but that people are restricted from using open fire in certain specific places."
"For example, cotton processing factories, granaries for storing grain, and fireworks and firecracker manufacturing places. These areas need to be kept in a dry environment throughout the whole process, and there are a lot of flammable materials stored, which are extremely prone to fire."
"Father can promulgate some laws and regulations specifically for this purpose, directly prohibiting the use of open flames in places where fires are more likely to occur. Anyone who violates this law, whether they are officials or civilians, must be severely punished according to the severity of the circumstances. "
"In addition, strict controls must be imposed on the sale and use of flammable and explosive items such as fireworks."
"For example, the manufacture of flammable and explosive products can be carried out in the form of government-private cooperation. That is to say, the public can manufacture and sell fireworks, etc., but they must report to the government and inform the government of the daily production volume, and there are government personnel. The amount of purchases and shipments are strictly monitored to prevent people from hoarding a large number of fireworks and firecrackers without permission, causing fire safety hazards."
"At the same time, set up a reporting mechanism. Anyone who sees someone violating Du Huo's regulations can report to higher-level officials. If the evidence is true after verification, the whistleblower can receive a national reward and record it as a personal achievement."
"I believe that under such strict regulations, no one should dare to do anything reckless, and the frequency of fires will naturally be much smaller."
Ying Yu said with a smile.
If it is only heavy penalties for those who violate the regulations, then there are too many loopholes.
Because things like using open flames in violation of regulations, or selling fireworks and firecrackers without permission, are destined to be discovered and reported only by others.
But if there is no hatred between them, who would take the risk of offending others and do something that is not beneficial to them?
Even if someone uses an open flame in violation of this regulation and is seen by others, there is a high probability that they will pretend to be deaf and dumb, pretending that they did not see it, or if they have a better relationship, they may say hello to each other and pass away. It is human nature to take this rule seriously.
As a result, it is obviously not conducive to the implementation of the fire prevention regulations.
But after setting up this reporting mechanism, the situation will become completely different.
Because all things, as long as interests are involved, then no one cares about them will definitely become scrambling for the first.
Some people may not care about rewarding money for successful reporting, but if it is counted as personal merit, it is different. You must know that if you want to be promoted in Daqin, most of them will depend on your performance appraisal. , your chances of being promoted or becoming an official in the future will be much higher.
At that time, in order to obtain these benefits, each of them will be staring at each other closely. In such an atmosphere, the observance of this law will definitely be greatly improved.
"Knowing fire and Prince Du Huo's words are very good, and the methods are also feasible. Then what about fire prevention and fire fighting?"
Ying Zheng smiled and asked with great interest.
"In terms of fire prevention, because most of the old buildings in my Daqin are made of wood, once a fire breaks out in a certain room, it is very likely to cause the entire surrounding buildings or streets to be affected, causing massive damage. Severe fires in the area."
"Therefore, I think that when building houses, we should use more new materials such as cement, concrete, bricks and tiles. The houses should be properly separated from each other by a certain distance, instead of connecting everything for the sake of beauty. The firing process is quite mature, and the price has been reduced a lot, which can completely replace the role played by wood in building houses."
