Chapter 127—The Son of the Earth. palace
A refuge for grandpa, a playground for grandchildren. The pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info696 is authentic and is the secret of this country. On the timeline, what has changed is only the shell, the inside of the thing, and there has never been any change.
The drumming and passing of resources has nothing to do with all sentient beings. Most people are more like bystanders, in Cao Xueqin's words, to come to the world and go badly.
Later, with the decline of the traditional energy industry, the Donghong Mining Group cut down some coal mines with poor efficiency and transferred them to private individuals, and the Kaiqu Coal Mine was not spared.
Thinking that Lu Zehuan was in Donghong Mining, he called him and asked him to meet in the evening. He asked me to go to his house after work.
When he came to Lu Zehuan's place, he had already prepared a few dishes.
Ask me if I drink.
I said no, just plain water.
Seeing that his roommate Zhao Ran was not there, he asked, "What about your senior brother Zhao Ran?" ”
"Oh, he? I went to the mine and won't be back this week. ”
I tasted a bite of the dish: "Yes, my cooking skills have improved a lot, have you learned from Yin Zi?" ”
"What's the matter, usually I cook at home, and when I practice, I practice my skills."
"Zhao Ran doesn't have a girlfriend either? Rub your food every day. ”
"No, this senior brother is a celibate, and it is estimated that he will not find a woman in his life."
"What about you, now it's time for the two of us to talk about your secret lover."
"Let's not talk about it......" Before he finished speaking, Lu Zehuan began to cough violently, and his neck was red.
I hurriedly brought him a glass of water.
He took the cup and said, "It's okay, it's just a choke." ”
"Fenzi, you've lost a lot of weight lately, what's going on?"
"It's okay, maybe I'm tired from work, and sometimes I have to work overtime."
"Are you alright? Could it be that the secret lover has squeezed your kid dry, take it easy? ”
He smiled, waved his hand, and coughed again.
I said solemnly, "You have time to go to the hospital for a check-up, you know!" I'll be honest, I'll go with you tomorrow. ”
"Don't don't, I'll go when I'm free, it's okay, let's get down to business first."
I told him about the opening of the coal mine.
"As far as I know, the coal mines cut down by the group at that time did not produce high coal, the coal quality was poor, and they could not pass the inspection, unless the coal was washed, but that would increase the cost, so the group simply closed it down, and then transferred it to private individuals through internal relations."
"This is understandable, but why did the private people stop the coal mine after they took it over, and the problem is that they are still discharging wastewater, causing people and animals around them to get sick and even cancer?"
"The main thing that comes out of coal mines is mine water, and in the process of coal mining, in order to ensure the safe production of coal mines, a large amount of mine water must be discharged. Mine water contains suspended matter impurities and microorganisms such as coal dust and rock dust, and the color is gray-black, and some mine water from high-sulfur coal seams is acidic due to the oxidation of sulfur-containing compounds such as pyrite, and contains a large number of pollutants such as iron and heavy metal ions. In addition, some mine water contains a high level of salt, and some also contain contaminants such as fluoride and radioactive radium. ”
"Then the situation I am talking about, could it be caused by mine wastewater?"
"I don't think so. In the past, when coal was produced, the wastewater was purified by coagulation and sedimentation technology, and the discharged water was not toxic. Even if it is discharged directly without any treatment, it will not cause human and animal harm so quickly. ”
"What do you mean?"
"I mean, someone is discharging highly toxic wastewater through this coal mine!"
"It's different to have you as a professional coffee, you analyze it like this, everything is thorough, thank you so much, Qiang!"
"It's a lot of work, but I'm a little bit professional, haha." He was never humble in front of me.
"Okay, okay, thanks to you this time, how do you want me to reward you."
"What are you talking about, you know, I'm also an environmentalist, I've helped with this, I'll go with you to the open canal coal mine to sample. These are not our own affairs, this time we do not speak for the victims, maybe tomorrow, we will also be victims, no one speaks for us. ”
The most different thing between Lu Zehuan and Yin Deji and Geng Hao is this, he has the public thinking of an intellectual, which is a rare altruistic temperament at the moment, which I have always admired him.
We made an appointment to go to Handan together on the weekend. When I was leaving, I asked him and Xu Lu what was going on.
He looked at me innocently and said it's still the case, ordinary friend.
I didn't persuade him, saying that you kid lost a priceless treasure, do you know?
This guy hummed and chirped and didn't speak.
Handan, a city with more smog than Beijing.
It is said that in ancient times, Nuwa, the ancestor of mankind, was here to make people from the soil and refine stones to make up the sky. Nowadays, people are mining from the land, which can be regarded as an echo of Nuwa Niangniang.
The Kaiqu Coal Mine is located in the western suburbs, 20 kilometers away from the main urban area. Two kilometers down the hill there is a small town, near the coal mine, which belongs to the urban-rural junction, and the streets are full of grocery shops, massage parlors, restaurants, fortune tellers, and most families do not have running water, they all dig their own wells. A child was carrying water at the mouth of the well and taking a cold shower, and his teeth were so cold that he was shivering.
When we come to the Kaiqu Coal Mine, it is like walking into a miniature version of Chernobyl, where cinders, tattered overalls and hats are piled up everywhere, and in the low and dilapidated factory buildings, it seems that a zombie will jump out at any time and bite our necks.
Everything in ruin here is a metaphor for the bleakness of collective life in the era of large factories. An era of extensive energy has come to an end.
The iron door was locked, but the chains were new and not rusty, proving our suspicions, and there were frequent people coming and going.
After going around the circle, I found a broken wall and got into it.
Coming to the entrance of the mine, it is tightly sealed by a concrete wall, but at the very bottom there are four holes with a diameter of 10 centimeters, which, if our guess is correct, are the inlets where the pipe is used to discharge wastewater.
"It seems that what we expected was exactly right." Lu Ze picked up a handful of dirt at the entrance of the cave, "The situation is not good, the soil here is all salinized, and there are traces of corrosion by heavy metals. ”
"Someone is illegally arranging here, and this seems to be a sure thing."
Lu Zejun nodded: "We need to collect some evidence, let's stay here tonight, I hope to take pictures of them doing bad things." ”
We found a place in the hidden room, which was supposed to be the original weighing room, with two tattered sofas, to pack up and sit.
I took out the mineral water and dry food I had bought and handed them to Lu Zelian.
As he drank water, he asked, "Who told you about this coal mine?" ”
"Yuan Zheng, he has a friend who does environmental protection and public welfare, and told him about the situation here, and then he asked me to pay attention to it."
"Oh, in this way, it seems that everyone is alert, there is always a kind of careless behavior in this world, and it is always the weak who suffer."
What is even more terrible is that no one pays for all this, but the people who run for justice are afraid all day long, and sometimes think about the real world. upside down. ”
"Well, we can only be angry. We who study mining call the mine the son of the earth. Palace, these people are mutilating the mother body that gives us warmth, it's so shameful! ”
"No, we're not just angry, we're not trying to save the world, save the earth. Is the palace a deal? ”
We bragged about it one after another, and at twelve o'clock in the middle of the night, I let Lu Zehuan sleep first, and I stared.
From time to time, the sound of rats tearing in the shadows of the corners could be heard.
The wind blows in, bringing with it the smell of coal dust.
Lu Zehuan quickly fell asleep, leaning back on the sofa and snoring slightly. I took off my coat and draped it over him.
At about two o'clock in the morning, my upper and lower eyelids began to tear uncontrollably.
At this time, I heard the sound of the iron chain of the coal mine gate being opened, and my spirit was immediately half sober, and my eyelids were no longer torn, and then the sound of the iron door being opened.
The roar of the motor is getting closer and closer to us, it is the sound of a large truck driving, when we were children, we called such a car an old sow, and we were afraid to avoid it when we encountered it on the road.
Lu Zehuan woke up, turned over and stood up: "Coming?" ”
"It's coming!"
Through the dark shadows, we walked towards the entrance to the mine.
Saw 4 taels 40 tons of fuel tankers parked there. Several people were pulling pipes from the car. I took a few pictures.
He lurked at the entrance to the mine and saw that the men were inserting pipes into the hole.
After plugging it in, they returned to the back of the car.
Flat tubes with rapidly congested yin. The stems bulged up, and the grunts of sin continued to pour into the mines, defiling the sons of the earth. Palace.
