Business owners in China’s central province of Henan are still tallying up their losses following record rainfalls that triggered massive flooding in the provincial capital Zhengzhou. The floods on July 20, 2021, killed at least 99 people, and submerged many underground spaces across the city including some busy commercial blocks.
