Sun Fuqiang is a celebrity in Wulong, not only has his own furniture factory in the town, but also opens a large hardware store. There are few people who don't know him, this son-in-law from a foreign country has not only been in the newspaper, but is also the village chief of Sunjiagou Village!

With the help of the faint flashlight light, Fu Qiang looked at the second brother - the brother hadn't seen him for three years, if he hadn't seen the photo at the beginning of the year, he really wouldn't have recognized Fu Shun! said that they are brothers, there is no similarity between the two people, and the eldest brother is shorter than the second brother.

He stared at the black bag in Fu Shun's hand and reached out to help him twist it, but was stopped by Fu Shun. "Big brother, don't touch this ......"

"You doll, you're tired of screwing alone, I'll help you consume (dialect, meaning 'leashed') the back of the car!"

"I'll just take it, it doesn't matter......"

"Forget it, you stubborn temper, very strong! You know my address, why don't you sit down and run into this ravine? Don't you look down on your big brother......"

"Big brother, you know I'm not! Hey, since you're here, I won't hide it from you. Fu Shun pointed to the black bag, "This is Brother Zhu's ashes, I think you are a businessman, I am afraid of causing you bad luck, so I plan to deal with this matter before coming to you!" ”

"What? Ashes? Fu Qiang was taken aback and dodged back, "You ...... How did you get it back? ”

"The company sent a car...... Big brother, if you're scared, go back first, and I'll come back to you after I've taken care of it! ”

"I'm afraid...... There's nothing to be afraid of, you're not afraid to take it so far alone, what am I afraid of, but why did I burn it? Fuqiang took a deep breath and took a step forward.

"Hey, it's hard to say, the city is different from our countryside, and that's the only way to say this hot day! Big brother, I'm sorry for you! ”

"Two brothers, don't talk about that!" Prosperity is for courage. Turn on all the lights on the motorcycle, "I received your letter the day before yesterday, and I wrote you a reply today, but I didn't expect you to come back!" You called me to inquire about this Zhu Jianguo. It is a person from the third group of Zhujiagou, the mother-in-law has been dead for more than ten years, and she has not given birth to a boy and a girl, but a father is still there, and it is said that the money he sent back was to the village party secretary. Then transfer it to his father, by the way, this village party secretary is a cousin of his distant relative! ”

"Do you know?"

"I recognize the village party secretary, but I don't recognize that old man! Why did you come alone, you can explain this kind of thing clearly? ”

"There are three people here, two masters are driving, and they have to rush back tomorrow. The public security and the crematorium have issued certificates, and there is nothing unclear! ”

"You, you're still a tendon when you're so big! Forget it, it's all here. What's going on, I'm still here! What's your plan? ”

"I want to send the urn to his old family hall first, which is considered to be the ancestral hall, and then find a place for Mr. Yin and Yang to see a place overnight, simply make a grave, and then give the company's compensation to the old man......"

"Or! I am two people, I must not go directly to his house, don't scare the old man to death! First of all, we must find the village party secretary......"

"Then this ......" Fu Shun lifted the urn in his hand, "You can't mention the village party secretary's house, right?" ”

"Lock the car first!"

"But the ...... of this wilderness"

"It's okay, you make a deal for him, it won't take long to get it! Walk. Get in the car first, don't be a hal, Secretary Zhu is asleep......"

With the help of the eldest brother, a qiē is much smoother.

Fushun sat on the motorcycle, leaning tightly against the back of his eldest brother. That broad backbone. It's still a barrier that can protect you from the wind and rain. Although there were a lot of potholes on the dirt road, Fu Qiang was skilled and always able to get around those places smoothly, and the motorcycle reached the end of the road smoothly!

"The car won't get in! Let's stop here first, let's walk into the mountains!" Fuqiang parked the motorcycle.

Fu Shun followed what the eldest brother said earlier, and took out three sticks of incense from the side of the black bag. asked the eldest brother for a lighter, and gave Brother Zhu three more moves, so he locked him in the motorcycle basket that the eldest brother usually installed to drag things, and walked deeper along the path to the mountain with a flashlight.

Zhujiagou is indeed in the ditch, a small river flows quietly, the rice in the field has lowered its head, the papaya tree at the edge of the field is full of big papayas, and the large mulberry leaves under the papaya tree are eaten by the occasional wild silkworm are all gaps!

Fuqiang came to this ditch when he was harvesting wood, so he is still familiar with the road. They quickly found the village party secretary - if it weren't for Fuqiang, this evil-looking Secretary Zhu would definitely treat Fushun as a liar!

"Secretary Zhu, I'm sorry, I'm coming to quarrel with you so late!" Fu Qiang said as he handed over the cigarette.

"Boss Sun, you said that these are out of sight! Collecting wood in the bends? Say it earlier, I told my mother-in-law to make the whole meal for you! The branch secretary took the cigarette and instructed the woman watching TV, "Go and boil two bowls of mash eggs!" ”

It seems that this kind of polite and interesting name is not only in the city, but also in the countryside!

"No need, no need, just say something and go! The secretary is not here to collect wood, but for the thing I blew on the street yesterday! Fuqiang lit a cigarette to the branch secretary, "This is my brother, my brother, a big company in Guangsha!" ”

"Guangsha? Oh, it's for Zhu Jianguo's business, right? Hey, I won't tell you everything, the opinion of the town government is that we don't care, let the unit that happened send people back, and be responsible for my second uncle's pension! I, the lobby brother, have hurt me enough, and I ran away...... It's comfortable now, and I don't care if I kick my legs! The young branch secretary crackled and said, "Boss Sun, why are you here to go to this troubled water?" ”

Fu Shun sat aside, and stopped talking several times, although he already felt that this branch secretary was not a kind person, he believed that the eldest brother could handle this matter.

Fu Qiang smiled, "Secretary Zhu, the two of us can be regarded as trustworthy brothers, I just told you about this!" My second brother is a small head in Guangsha, a branch of Huajian Third Bureau, and the company considers that he and Zhu Jianguo are fellow villagers, and asks him to send Zhu Jianguo's ashes back......"

"What? Ashes? You two brought the ashes with you? Where is it? The branch secretary jumped up anxiously by the two unfortunate words "ashes", and tore open Fushun's crossbody bag to see.

"Secretary, don't panic, I don't understand this rule? The ashes didn't bring you home, they are still ...... in the ditch," Guoqiang said.

Fushun's crossbody bag was torn open, and the thick stacks of money inside were exposed to the light! Fu Shun noticed the shiny eyes of the branch secretary, quickly covered it, and took out a few copies of the text from the side, he put the last one in his bag, and handed the other pages to the branch secretary.

The branch secretary sat down. Flip through them one by one. The first is a letter of introduction issued by the company, the second is a death certificate issued by Guangsha Huajian Hospital, the third is a cremation certificate stamped by the crematorium, and the fourth is a certificate of ashes claim stamped by the Public Security Bureau and the Civil Affairs Bureau...... After reading it. The branch secretary looked back and forth, and finally returned to the first one, "Boss Liu?!" is really young and promising, Boss Sun is well-educated, this is your brother in Shiqiao, your hometown, right? The branch secretary smiled and shook hands with Fushun.

Fu Shun smiled reluctantly. "Secretary, don't listen to my brother, I'm not a leader, because I and Brother Zhu are good friends, and the company leaders trust me to send Brother Zhu home......"

"You and my cousin are brothers, that's my brother!" The joy of the branch secretary was annoying, "Chunmei, is the mash boiled well?" Two more dishes, I'll have a drink with the two bosses! ”

"Nope. No! Fu Shun hurriedly stood up, "We are mainly for Brother Zhu's affairs, secretary, the deceased is the greatest, can we let him enter the old house first?" ”

Fuqiang also stood up, "Secretary Zhu, what my brother said is reasonable, he wants to put your cousin in the hall of the old house first, put a few pillars of incense, and it will be counted as the ancestral hall!" It's best not to alarm your second uncle. Entered the ancestral shrine. Buried him night after night! ”

"This ...... Don't panic! Boss Sun, you are also a village cadre, and you know that this matter is not so over-the-top (dialect, meaning 'easy'). At least invite those masters from the Civil Affairs Office to come here! After the secretary finished speaking, the mash eggs were already on the table.

Fu Shun's face was full of displeasure, he took the few copies of the text from the branch secretary's hand, and pulled the eldest brother to prepare to go out, but was stopped by the eldest brother. Fu Qiang pulled Fu Shun aside and whispered, "Don't panic. This matter has to go through the village, and it is difficult to offend him. I guess you didn't have dinner either, so let's get something to eat first and discuss slowly! ”

Fu Shun had no choice but to sit down at the table, although he was already very hungry, he had no appetite at all - Brother Zhu was still alone in the ditch!

"The branch secretary, if you are looking for civil affairs, you will find civil affairs, the director happened to order a set of furniture from me, and I will drive a motorcycle to bring him over tomorrow. What about tonight? Fu Qiang took a bite of the egg and said with a smile.

The secretary took a bottle of wine from the cabinet and said as he poured it, "What happened tonight?" Drinking is tonight's thing! The two brothers have come so far, and they are relieved! ”

"I don't know how to drink," Fu Shun didn't move his chopsticks, "Secretary Zhu, what my eldest brother said tonight is whether I can let Brother Zhu go into the house first......"

Fu Qiang raised his glass and saluted the secretary, "Secretary, you are a sensible cadre, and you don't want your cousin to spend the night in the river, you lead the way, we will put your cousin's urn into the hall, and I will bring Director Li early tomorrow morning, and this matter should not ......be publicized."

"Yes, yes," Fu Shun added, "Secretary Zhu said when he sent a telegram back to our company, you can't stimulate the old man!" ”

"I know this, but my second uncle is just this one doll, why is it gone when he says no on the construction site? In the days to come, there will be no source of income! The branch secretary drank a glass of wine sadly, "I don't know what to say about the company's compensation, I didn't see the ...... in the text just now."

Fu Shun knows the scripture that this guy reads in his stomach! Brother Zhu sends all the money to his home every month, and the recipient is the person in front of him! I didn't know before, but in the past two years, it will not be less than 15,000 per year, so how can it be impossible to spend all the money in the countryside? Of course, it's too early to draw conclusions, and I'll wait until I see Brother Zhu's father.

Fu Shun thought for a while and asked tentatively: "Branch secretary, how much do you think is appropriate?" ”

"Hey, how do you make that clear? The death certificate said that he fell to death, and the Public Security Bureau concluded that Zhu Jianguo was his own fault, so I can't say it! The branch secretary looked at Fu Qiang, "My cousin, who is about the same as you, is also a carpenter, if you are in your hometown, Boss Sun, you have less than three or four thousand net income a year, right?" ”

What bullshit logic is this!

Fu Shun held back the anger in his heart, he regretted his stupid question just now, how can a person's life be measured by money? He doesn't want to talk about this problem anymore, at this time, he should stand in the company's position!

"Secretary, I'm sorry, I'm too shallow, Brother Zhu's life is priceless, and I can't get any less money! Like you, I began to suspect the cause of Brother Zhu's death, and even because of this, Brother Zhu's two good brothers were fired from the construction site! But this is the result of the investigation of the public security organ, as Brother Zhu's brother, I don't have any opinion, if you think there is a problem, you can file a lawsuit against them! ”

"I don't have to doubt it, besides, we have a lawsuit with the unit, isn't that asking for trouble? I just asked, the construction site finally lost a lot of money to my cousin, to see if it was enough for funeral expenses, and ...... My second uncle is ...... old-age pension," the branch secretary finished speaking, and drank another one with Guoqiang.

Two more dishes were added to the table!

Guoqiang put down his wine glass and said to the branch secretary: "Secretary, we have almost drunk, you can rest assured of my brother's character, if the company takes 5,000 to compensate, he will definitely not only take out 4,000!" Let's go and get down to business first, let the dead brother go into the lower house, hey, he who has no children and no daughters also creates evil, and he was going to be buried secretly tonight, you have to call the civil affairs to ......"

Secret burial is a form of funeral in the Jianan area. Do not look at the time, do not invite relatives and friends, do not move the ringer, and are generally buried at night.

"Five thousand?" The branch secretary didn't listen to Guoqiang's "if" at all, let alone the words behind, "Five thousand is a little less, right?" ”

The more Fu Shun listened, the more angry he became, he stood up with a "whoosh", and was pulled down by the eldest brother again. He Liu Fushun has suffered a lot of crimes, but if you want to say that he is angry, he really hasn't suffered much! "What a discredit for rural people!" Fu Shun muttered, he suddenly felt that Ma Ziang, who had been "inhumane" before, was so tall!

But now I have to listen to my brother, otherwise Brother Zhu may not be able to enter the house, and even alarm Uncle Zhu, when the time comes, I really can't afford this responsibility!

"Secretary, that's right, my brother came with two colleagues who live in the town's guest house. My brother values feelings, so if you have to let your cousin go into the house, I will bring him over first, and I will talk about the compensation tomorrow ...... about it" Fuqiang's brain is easy to use, and he keeps playing rounds.

The branch secretary stared at Fushun's satchel and clinked glasses with Guoqiang suspiciously.

"Shun'er, give me the bag! Collect some arrears in Li Jialiang today, hehe! Guoqiang put Fushun's bag on his body, and got up after speaking.

"Haha, Boss Sun has really made a fortune! The dead are great, let's go! The branch secretary put down the dishes and chopsticks and followed with a smile...... (To be continued.) )
