Shayuan Town, the second labor area of the mining area.

"Zhang Cai, Zhang Cai, come here."

A guy who looked a little obscene heard the caretaker call him, and hurriedly came over, and asked with a stammering face, "Sir, do you have anything to do for you?" ”

I don't know how long it took to come here, Zhang Cai learned one thing, that is, don't offend the caretakers here, otherwise being whipped is small, and your workload will be doubled or tripled, and it will be fatal.

Next to the caretaker, a person with a document looked at a higher level than the caretaker who called him, "You are Zhang Cai?" ”

Zhang Cai: "Yes, yes, my lord. ”

"According to the rules set by the chief, I was arrested for gambling and sent to work for three months, but in view of the slackness in the early stage, I added three months to work and worked seriously in the later stage, and I was allowed to be free seven days in advance."

Zhang Cai slandered in his heart, there was a whipping waiting at any time, didn't he do things seriously, and those who dared to steal "rape" and play slippery were either to increase the mining time or whip. Suddenly hearing that he could leave, Zhang Cai was a little overwhelmed, the reason is very simple, it is not that he was born cheap, because he has experienced a militarized life, there are caretakers to supervise every moment, and there is a kind of caretaker by his side when he does things, and if he dares to be lazy, he may be whipped.

"Zhang Cai!"

Zhang Cai, who was stunned, hurriedly came back to his senses, "My lord." ”

Caretaker: "This is the reward for what you have done these days, be a good person after leaving, otherwise the next time you are arrested, it will not be as easy as half a year." ”

Zhang Cai has not had his father's discipline since he was a child, only an old lady, but his wife obviously can't discipline him, and then he learned to gamble with the gangsters, and he wants to make a fortune from this, and it is understandable that he wants to make a fortune, everyone will have this kind of dream, but relying on gambling, it can only be said that he thinks too much.

This time Zhang Cai was disciplined by the volunteers, it is regarded as Zhang Cai back to the furnace, and the previous lazy and gambling vices were quit, Zhang Cai was a wicked person in the hearts of the people in Zhangjia Village, but after being arrested here, there were no wicked people, murderous pirates, bandits, that is not more fierce than him, but those people are all managed by the volunteers, Zhang Cai can only be regarded as a little sheep among them!

The caretaker "remember, the next time I am arrested, I will go to the death row mine, and if you don't want to die, you should be a good person." ”

Zhang Cai was scared, people who work in the mining area know that the mine is divided into three levels, a safety level mining area, the people who do things here take the initiative to come to do things, belong to the money to work, there is usually no restriction, if you want to leave, go to the account room to settle the monthly money and leave, this is the most free work, the caretaker of the mining area is polite to the people who come to do things.

One is the mining area where Zhang Cai is located, which belongs to the mining area that restricts freedom, and the people who work here have more or less bad habits, and are forcibly arrested by the police to do things, because the people who do things here are generally three months but between half a year, these people do not dare to have the idea of escaping, as long as they pass the punishment time, they can leave freely, and they don't need to break their heads to escape, instead of thinking of ways to leave, it is better to leave after the punishment time, plus although it is hard to do things here, there is not too much harshness in terms of eating, The level of food here is much better than what they used to do.

The last one is the most terrifying, the mining area is detained for extremely vicious people, the people detained here basically have no possibility of leaving, and they have to complete three times the workload of Zhang Cai's mining area every day, otherwise they will wait to starve to death, and it is as simple as dying in it, and the corpse will be buried somewhere casually, and the people here will live and die casually.

Zhang Cai has been working here for a few months, and he has also entered that place to collect the corpse, and when he first entered and saw the people inside, they all felt deeply ghostly, thinking that he was thrown there, with his little weak chicken, it was really sending sheep into the tiger's mouth.

"Adult, don't dare, don't dare, the little one must be a good person, and he won't trouble the adult in the future."

Soon, Zhang Cai left the mining area, glanced back, and then left here without looking back, with five silver coins in his arms, and the caretaker said that this was a new silver coin from Zhangjiacheng, and one silver coin was equal to one tael of silver.

Don't blame Zhang Cai, I didn't think I could win so much money when I gambled before, and I was satisfied with gambling for two taels of silver, but unfortunately it backfired, and the gambling money never came in and out, only the life of losing money, I didn't expect to be arrested here to do things for a few months, and after leaving, there were five taels of silver, oh, five silver coins, at this time Zhang Cai's heart was unforgettable. This time, the wealth can be said to be a huge amount of money for him.

Out of the mining area, Zhang Cai was a little reluctant, although it was hard work in the mining area, but he didn't worry about eating and drinking here, the daily food was better than what he had eaten during the New Year, he didn't care about eating and drinking after leaving here, it was right to work hard in the mining area, and he could eat and rest when it was time, Zhang Cai's originally thin body, after this period of supplementation, and a lot of labor exercise, the body was much stronger.

"Big brother, I'm going back to Zhangjiacheng, can you take me with you."

Zhangjiacun became Zhangjiacheng, Zhang Cai heard some people, some time ago, there were a large number of gamblers who heard that they gathered to gamble in Zhangjiacheng and were arrested, Zhang Cai talked to those people about some things, and knew that Zhangjiacun was no longer the original Zhangjiacun, but became Zhangjiacheng, with more than 200,000 people.

Well, what is the population of 200,000, I don't understand it, this data is beyond the scope of his imagination, after all, he is illiterate, he knows the number of hundreds, thousands, and when it comes to the number of tens of thousands, 200,000 levels, he knows how big it is.

Zhang Cai was talking to a transport team, he didn't know the road when he returned to Zhangjiacheng, but it was okay to follow these people, after all, the transport team had transportation tasks every day, and Zhang Cai was more or less familiar with the people in these transport teams.

Knowing Zhang Cai's matter, the people of the transport team generously asked him to follow, after all, Zhang Cai was not arrested because of gambling, he was not a big evil person, to put it bluntly, the gambling thing hurt his family, and it didn't have much impact on outsiders, plus Zhang Cai was released, and the matter was even more nothing.

Following the transport team, Zhang Cai was stunned along the way, why did he have such a reaction, it was very simple, because of the cement road under his feet!

Before Zhang Cai was caught in the mining area, the Zhangsha Highway had not yet been proposed, it was a common kind of dirt road, and now the road he is walking on has become a smooth cement road, and the ox carts of the transport team walk on it steadily, and next to the cement road, I can see what people are doing.

Zhang Cai was curious and inquired and found out that it was a railway, which would be used to transport iron ore in Shayuan Town in the future, well, after going to the mining area for a few months, Zhang Cai felt that he was not dreaming, how could there be such a thing.

Together with the transport team, he rested for an hour in a place called the service area, and in less than half a day, he had arrived at the periphery of Zhangjiacheng, where Zhang Cai was separated from the people of the transport team and returned to his hometown alone.

Zhang Cai looked like a person from Zhangjiacheng, so there were no police officers coming to look for him along the way, and there was no need to go to the epidemic prevention station to wash his body, and the cleaning had already been completed in the mining area.

Entering Zhangjiacheng, Zhang Cai looked at it all the way, wanting to find his hometown and go back to be filial to his mother, but unfortunately Zhangjiacun has changed too much, there is an illusion of changing the world in half a year, there is no familiar place here with Zhangjiacun at all, it turns out that the grass house where the people of Zhangjiacun live, all the way to the past did not see.

Zhang Cai appeared in his hometown in his memory, why could he find it, because there was a familiar tree in that place, and the big tree that could only be surrounded by a few people was not cut down, so Zhang Cai could find here, but it had become a red brick house, and it was not familiar with him at all in his memory.

At this time, Zhang Cai didn't know what to do, and he had only been away for less than half a year, how could the change be so big, although I heard that Zhangjiacun had changed a lot, but this was too big! In addition to the large natural environment, such as the hill opposite the big tree, the small river, these are difficult to change in a short period of time by the current manpower, and the original artificial buildings have all become unrecognized.

Zhang Cai tried to find the landlord's mansion in Zhangjia Village, and walked down, Zhang's mansion was renovated and renovated, and became a paradise for everyone to go, which made Zhang Cai feel that Zhang's mansion was so unattainable, Zhang Cai had to be careful when he passed by, otherwise he was bitten by the dog that ran out of it and could only admit that he was unlucky, and now it has become a paradise, what else can he say.

When I was in a daze, I heard someone ask suspiciously, "Zhang Cai?" ”

Zhang Cai came back to his senses and saw an acquaintance, the patriarch of Zhangjia Village, who taught him for his mother when he was young, but unfortunately Zhang Cai was deaf to the patriarch's teachings when he grew up.

"Clan Elder!"

The clan elder "bastard boy, I still want to come back and harm your mother, believe it or not, Lao Tzu beat you to death." ”

For the back of no interest, the clan elder has a feeling of hating iron and steel, the young man of the same generation as Zhang Cai has already started a family, this bastard thing, except for the scourge of the family, there is nothing to take a shot, who has a girl who dares to introduce him to ah, other people's children can play soy sauce, Zhang Cai is still a bachelor.

Zhang Cai blushed a little, this kind of reaction had not been done before, after entering the mining area to build it, he came out like a person, and he already felt blushing when he was scolded by the clan elder.

"Clan elder, I know it's wrong, I used to do bastard things and I was a brute, and now I will treat my mother well when I come back, you see, this is the silver coin I earned, go back and be filial to my mother."

The clan elder glanced at Zhang Cai's few silver coins, and a few silver coins were not uncommon, but he was very satisfied with Zhang Cai's attitude, and took out the silver coins, indicating that he had the idea of reforming himself, which was good.

The patriarch sent Zhang Cai to his house, and all the houses here were rebuilt, and others didn't know him, so he, a local, naturally wouldn't admit his mistake.

Zhang Cai returned home and saw the old lady he hadn't seen for many days, and his attitude of kneeling down and admitting his mistakes was recognized by everyone.

A new life will wait for Zhang Cai, who returns late.
