Chapter 620: The water is deep
"I just slept in a daze, where did I notice Brother Yi'er's eyes?" The fat man looked aggrieved when he heard this, and he was a wicked person just now. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
"Fatty, since Si Yuanjie is with us now, he should treat it as his own person, and don't have this kind of thought in the future......" Fang Yi knew that the fat man still had a distant relative in his heart, but this was also human nature, Fang Yi just clicked to the end and didn't say anything more.
"I know, Fang Yi, don't worry, Si Yuanjie will be my own brother in the future......" The fat man nodded very seriously, he might not listen to the words of others, but what Fang Yi said was better than the words of the fat man and his father.
"Brother Yi, where are we going?"
Seeing that the fat man's face was a little unbearable, Sanpao diverted the topic, his eyes looked around the car window, and said: "Fang Yi, since you have calculated Si Yuanjie's whereabouts, why don't you tell Brother Liu?
"Tell him, how can I tell me?"
Fang Yi rolled his eyes when he heard this, and said angrily: "Could it be that I told him that Poor Dao pinched his fingers and calculated that Si Yuanjie was fifty kilometers north of the east of the city?
"If I were Brother Liu, I would definitely ...... Treat you like a psychopath......"
Fang Yi's words made San Pao laugh, he and the fat man Fang Yi had known each other since they were young, and they also knew Fang Yi's skills, so they did not reject Fang Yi's abilities that were beyond the comprehension of ordinary people, but if he was an ordinary person, it would not be so easy to accept.
"That's it, let's go find it ourselves, and then inform Brother Liu after we find Si Yuanjie......"
Fang Yi drove the car to the east of the city, he had a strong sense of direction, although it was the first time he came to Phoenix, but through the sunlight sprinkled on the car window, Fang Yi could distinguish the southeast and northwest, this skill was learned in the mountains and forests since he was a child.
The traffic in Phoenix is still good, but as soon as you get out of the city, the roads become worse, and the good highway is full of potholes and potholes by the big trucks pulling coal, and there are many vehicles on the road, basically trucks full of coal.
With so many cars and bad road conditions, the speed of the car couldn't be raised at all, Fang Yi, who was driving at a speed of forty or fifty kilometers per hour, followed the car slowly behind a semi-trailer, but when he was passing through a period of uphill road, what happened in front of the car made Fang Yi and them stunned.
"Immeasurable Heavenly Venerable, what is that for?"
In order to prevent the cart from landslide, he deliberately opened a distance from the front car in response, and suddenly found that several vigorous figures came out of the ramp, and two figures climbed onto the semi-trailer with three times and five divided by two, and there were three people below, who were pushing a flatbed truck behind the semi-trailer.
"Damn, this is a coal grabber?"
When the two people who climbed into the car took off the shovels behind them, Fang Yi and the others in the car behind them suddenly understood, daring that they took advantage of the opportunity of driving slowly on a steep slope to steal coal from the car.
It's obviously not the first time that these people who climbed the car have done this kind of thing, and the action is very familiar, shoveling down the coal, and the people pushing the cart behind are also very good, most of the coal is thrown in the car, only a few of the broken coal spilled onto the road, which is almost the same as unloading the truck in the freight yard.
While working hard in the car, the guy wielding the shovel actually had the leisure to grin at Fang Yi and the others, and the face of a coal blackman comparable to Bao Qingtian was particularly eye-catching.
"Dude, awesome!"
The fat man sitting in the front row gave the man a thumbs up, looked sideways at Fang Yi, and said, "Don't the police here care about this?" According to that buddy's speed, when the car goes uphill, I see that they can fill this truck's coal ......."
The fat man's estimate is good, this uphill is almost more than 300 meters, the semi-trailer loaded with dozens of tons of coal can not raise the speed at all, like an old ox pulling a cart, and when it reaches the top of the slope, the board car that follows below has been loaded with all the sharp points.
"Let's go, buddy!"
Seeing that he was about to reach the top of the slope, the people unloading the coal on the car jumped down with their hands and feet, gave Fang Yi a flying kiss, and then followed the few people who pulled the coal and ran away from both sides of the ramp quickly, and disappeared in less than a minute.
"There are strange things every year, and there are a lot of them today......"
Looking at the figures that disappeared quickly, the fat man couldn't help but mutter, if he hadn't seen the coal ballast all over the ground, Fang Yi and the others would really wonder if what they saw just now was an illusion, and this kind of thing would happen under the blue sky and white sun.
"It's definitely not their family doing this job......"
Fang Yi saw from the rearview mirror that at the bottom of the ramp, several more figures followed a big car, and it was obvious that this ramp had become a place where some people had made a fortune.
However, on a ramp like this, Fang Yi and the others walked more than twenty kilometers and encountered such a place, because there was a big car in front of them to press the speed, it was not until noon that they ran sixty or seventy miles.
Seeing the semi-trailer that followed all the way in front of him to the door of a restaurant, Sanpao opened his mouth and said, "Fang Yi, let's eat something, I'll drive after eating......
"It's okay, I'll open it......"
Fang Yi took the direction and parked the car next to the semi-trailer, on the side of the national highway of three or four hundred meters on both sides of the road, there is a place where restaurants are gathered, there are dozens of restaurants at a distance of three or four hundred meters, many big cars are parked here to eat, and the business of each hotel is very good.
"Fang Yi, those two people are the drivers of the car in front of us......" After walking into the hotel and finding a table to sit down, the fat man touched Xia Yi with his elbow, and the two people sitting at the table in front of them were the ones who got off the semi-trailer just now.
"I'm going to ask them if they know what happened......
Fang Yi didn't hold it, and the fat man rushed to the table in front of him, he was originally a self-acquainted character, and after he was cheeky enough to scatter a circle of cigarettes for the two people, he was already sitting down next to the two people.
"I said two brothers, we have been following you all the way just now......
The fat man first introduced his identity, but then the topic changed and he talked about the ramp, "Two big brothers, there is something I have to remind you, when you crossed the ramp in front, there were four or five people stealing coal from your car......"
Although the fat man's words are a bit of an afterthought, but who wants to cause trouble when he goes out, now he can tell those two people that the fat man is already very kind, otherwise the road will go to the sky, who will take care of other people's affairs.
"Little brother, thank you......" Hearing the fat man's words, the two of them did not show a look of surprise on their faces, but they still politely thanked the fat man.
"Huh, two big brothers, do you know this?" The two were not surprised, but the fat man was accidental, he originally thought that the driver of the semi-trailer did not know what happened behind their car, but now it seems that he obviously thought wrong.
"We've been running on this road for seven or eight years, how could we not know about it?"
The stocky middle-aged driver laughed when he heard this, pointed at the people around him who were eating, and said, "The people who eat here are all sports car people, you ask them who don't know about this." ”
"Big brother, since you know, why don't you come down and stop it?" The fat man was a little confused, that cart of coal was at least a few hundred catties, which was converted into hundreds of dollars, wouldn't they feel distressed if they lost it in vain?
"Stop? How do you stop it? Go down and tell them not to steal coal?"
The middle-aged driver shook his head with a wry smile and said, "Those who steal coal are all people from nearby villages, they are all local land snakes, if you dare to get out of the car, they will dare to beat you, and the coal will be pulled away for you......"
The saying that the strong dragon does not suppress the head snake is applicable everywhere, and there is also the fact that the mountain eats the mountain and the water is draught, and these people rely on the coal mine, so they can only eat coal.
In the beginning, these villages did not use this stupid method, but directly set up cards to charge, and if you want to pass through the national highway near their village, you have to pay money to pass, relying on this income, many villages have entered a moderately prosperous society a few years earlier.
However, this kind of behavior was defined as a road rage in the past few years, and the public security system cracked down on a group of people, even a lot of old men and women in their sixties and seventies were arrested, and this unhealthy trend was curbed.
But there are also countermeasures under the policy, it doesn't work to set up cards to collect money, and the villages around the national highway have changed their methods, they don't want money, but directly ask for coal, these people first built a coal yard in their own villages, and then organized people to steal coal on the national highway.
Don't look at a car stealing a few hundred catties is not much, a few hundred catties of coal on a semi-trailer is not a few hundred catties, but it can't stand a large amount, a car of hundreds of catties, ten cars is several tons, the one hundred and a thousand cars of coal, one day can fill half of their coal yard.
The first village to seize the national highway found that this was more profitable than setting up a card fee, and even if they were caught by the police, the price of a cart of coal was not enough for detention and sentencing, and at most they were only taken to the police station and fined a few hundred yuan, which was a drop in the bucket for their income.
Therefore, the ramp on the national highway suitable for stealing coal has become a battleground for soldiers, and each village has to have a fire fight almost every few days in order to seize the advantageous terrain.
Roads are only one aspect of the money, but there are also railways and river transportation, which are the targets of various forces.
Therefore, in recent years, the election of village cadres in those villages around Phoenix City is based on whether they can lead the villagers to occupy the national highways, railways and canals.
"Damn, that's okay?"
The fat man was dumbfounded when he heard the driver's words, and even Fang Yi and Sanpao, who had ears pricked up next to him, also gained knowledge, the ancients said that reading ten thousand books is better than traveling ten thousand miles, it is really very reasonable, if you sit at home, where can you know that there is such a thing outside.
"Big brother, what about the coal you lost?"
The fat man digested the driver's words for a while, and then asked: "A few hundred catties at a time may not be much, but you have to run once a day or two, right?
"Little brother, are you from out of town?" the middle-aged driver looked at the fat man.
"Yes, our brothers heard that the coal situation has been good recently, so they thought about coming over and taking a look, and if they have the opportunity, they will pour a sum of coal and sell it to us......" After more than half a year of training in the antique market, the fat man's nonsense came casually, and Fang Yi and Sanpao next to him almost believed his words.
"If you come to sell coal like this, you will probably be able to pay ...... death."
Hearing the fat man's words, the driver couldn't help laughing, took a cigarette handed over by the fat man, and said: "No matter how much coal is stolen, we won't lose money if we engage in transportation, because we only go out of the car to get a transportation fee, and the goods on the car are not ours, and this loss is borne by the coal boss......
"Then his own coal was stolen, can the coal boss be willing?" the fat man asked, saying that the coal boss is not a fool, can they be happy to throw so much coal for no reason?
"Of course they don't, but what can they do if they don't?"
The middle-aged driver patted Fang Yi on the shoulder with a smile and said, "They have also thought of a way, those fare road rages were hit by them back then, but if they want to put an end to the theft of coal, they are not so capable......"
In Jin Province, the coal bosses are definitely a very energetic group, that is, it is not an exaggeration to say that black and white are all-inclusive, but no matter how strong they are, they are helpless in the face of the people's ocean offensive, and they can't let the people of the mine protection team follow the car with guns to do escort work.
"Then the coal bosses are not going to pay for it!" The fat man pouted, saying that the coal boss was rich, but in this way, the coal business was not so easy to do.
"What are you kidding, whoever pays them can't pay ......"
The fat man's words caused a burst of laughter from the surroundings, and a driver who was pulling noodles into his mouth said: "Little brother, you are also here to sell coal, are you not afraid of losing all the money your father earned?" If you want me to say, you better go back and find some other business to do......
"Am I wrong?" the fat man was laughed at by everyone inexplicably, how could he not lose money if he was stolen coal like this all day long.
"Young man, the water is deep in here......"
The old driver who sat at the same table with the fat man made a gesture of smoking, and the fat man was still very eye-catching, so he hurriedly handed over a cigarette, and after thinking about it, he simply stuffed the remaining half of the pack of cigarettes into the old driver's jacket pocket.
