"Quickly pay for it, if you don't give it, you won't give it!"

"You're amazing! I'll move it myself! The driver said that he was about to come down to move the wood, and several old men and old ladies simply sat on the ground, connecting the city in a row, with the pride of dying of righteousness.

"Come on! You move! I won't give it if I moved! ”

"You have what it takes to get past us!"

"That's right! It's not a matter of a few hundred dollars to crush us to death! ”

The tractor driver was furious, and while scolding, he took out a hundred yuan and threw it on the ground: "Is there more!" I'll see who of us has consumed whom! Anyway, this is my own coal mine! I'm not in a hurry to ship it out! I'll see what you do when the car comes from behind! ”

A few old men and old ladies were also interested, and they picked up the money on the ground and got up: "It's been over!" Today is a face-saving day for you! Tomorrow won't be so cheap! What a man! Even the old man and the old lady are bullied! ”

After that, he lifted a few logs to the side of the road with great dexterity, and the tractor driver snorted and drove the car to rumble past.

When the car had passed, the old men put the wood back in its place.

Xiao Lin was dumbfounded: "Really...... It's really a poor mountain and a bad water, and there are so many troubled people......"

Xu Zirui said: "It is said that the coal mine is in the hands of a few people, and most people still have to leave their hometowns to work, and these so-called 'left-behind old people' often occupy the road as the king and collect tolls from passing vehicles." ”

"And the government doesn't care?"

Su Nan shook his head: "What's the matter?" Tube? I'm all a handful old, and if I touch it a little, it hurts and itches here, what can I do with them? ”

"Also, disrespecting the old is one of the most difficult problems in our society to solve! You can't beat, you can't scold, you can't criticize education! Public opinion has no effect on them, anyway, they feel that the broken jar is broken, so they simply cause trouble to the society! ”

Su Nan smiled: "I can't see that your consciousness is quite high as a young man." ”

Xiao Lin muttered in a low voice: "Actually, although our young people have a bad reputation, their consciousness has always been quite high. ”

Su Nan nodded in agreement: "That's right, our consciousness has always been very high." ”

Xu Zirui said: "You are no longer a young man. ”

Su Nan was about to kick him, but Xiao Lin laughed and said, "Team Xu, you really can't chat!" How did you catch up with Chenchen's mother in the first place? ”

Speaking of Chenchen's mother, the faint smile on Xu Zirui's face slowly disappeared: "Go and ask them a little bit about the situation." ”

Su Nan was stunned for a moment, then looked at the small hill behind the old men, nodded and walked over.

"Old man, I'll ask you something."

Several old people were also secretly looking at them, and when they saw that people were coming, they all seemed to be facing a great enemy, waving their hands while avoiding them, and even said that several didn't know, didn't know, didn't know!

"How hard are you working here, and you don't go home for dinner in the sun?" Su Nan said and took out a few bottles of Wahaha from the backpack he was carrying, which was originally meant to be brought to the children in the village, and now it is also very good to coax the elderly.

Several old people also came over when they saw that there was a Wahaha drink that didn't need money, and Su Nan gave a bottle by himself, but they were reluctant to drink it, and they must take it back to the child in their pockets.

Now that he has accepted Wahaha, Su Nan's next topic is easy to open.

"Why don't you go back to dinner? Not hungry? ”

An old lady took out half a cake from her pocket: "Carry it, it's too far to go back, it's too tiring to walk!" ”

Su Nan nodded clearly, and simply squatted down to talk to her: "The children in the family have gone to work in other places?" ”

"They're all out! Not at home! It's no fun for us old people to go back! ”

"What about the grandson? The grandson is also out of town? ”

"My grandson and his son and daughter-in-law have gone to the big city," an old man followed: "Other people's grandsons go to school in the town and live in the school." ”

Xiao Lin said: "That's good, reduce the burden on you, otherwise you have to make three meals a day to take care of the child." ”

The old lady nodded, and when she saw that they had no malicious intent, she looked at them with a smile and said, "Where did you come from?" Town? ”

"We came from City A for a tour." Xiao Lin shook the camera in his hand: "The scenery in the countryside here is very beautiful." ”

"Yo, City A, big place, my eldest nephew works in City A! The whole family is in City A! ”

"You city dwellers have never seen the countryside! It's smog in your city all day! I can't see the blue sky, so let's take a look at it when we go to the countryside! ”

"That is, you can still see rape flowers in spring, those patches, it's beautiful!"

Su Nan nodded: "That's really not the right time to come, someone told me to be careful before I came, saying that landslides often happen in this place, are you okay sitting under the hillside?" This slope looks a bit steep! ”

"Hahaha!" Several old men all smiled and leaned back, looked back at the hillside and said, "Look at you people from the city, you haven't seen anything in the world!" I don't understand any of this! ”

"You think a good end of a mountain will slide! Which is so easy! ”

Su Nan frowned: "But this mountain looks like a vertical plane dug for paving the road, it's very steep, is it really not a landslide?" ”

Xu Zirui explained: "This hillside was reinforced when the road was built, but if the wind and rain are too strong, there is also the possibility of landslides, but as far as I know, the local climate is relatively dry, there is no heavy wind and rain, and there has never been a major landslide incident, not to mention that this is just a small hillside, and you are worried about it." ”

"That's right...... Then I'm relieved, relieved. Su Nan patted his chest: "Earlier, a relative from other places died of a landslide while traveling, so I was very worried when I saw a mountain or a hillside!" ”

"Who said no, yes!" An old lady vowed, "We used to have landslides here!" In the summer, when there are thunderstorms! ”

The old man next to him also slapped his thigh and remembered: "I've also stoned people to death!" It's been a few years! A couple of two! You should all have heard of the Stone Ridge mine! ”

"Don't talk nonsense, those two people didn't die in a mudslide! I was watching when I dug people out! ”

"I also heard that there are many wounds on my body, and there are big cuts on my face, and everyone who sees them says that they were cut with a knife! That guy, the dirt and stone on this mountain, can smash people out of such neat holes? ”

"How impossible! It doesn't have to be a wound with a branch! ”

"How many years have passed, and there was only that accident, and then everyone went out to be careful, and tried not to take the mountain road when it was windy and rainy."

Su Nan said: "Which mountain did these two people encounter in the mudslide? ”

The old man pointed in the direction they came: "Right there, this is the road!" You say it's a coincidence! ”

Xiao Lin was shocked and grabbed Su Nan's arm: "It's really a coincidence......

"Alas......" Su Nan couldn't help but sigh: "It is inevitable to encounter natural and man-made disasters, and I left by myself, leaving my family sad and missing for a lifetime." ”

"Isn't it, when these two left, there was still a son at home, just such a son."

The old lady who had something good to do without waiting for Su Nan to ask said, "What about the son?" Is it okay? How old are you now? Have you married a daughter-in-law? ”

"I don't know, Shiling!" After the old man finished speaking, he pointed in the direction where the coal cart was coming.

Another coal truck roared over, they quickly got up and went over, the driver was also happy, immediately threw out two hundred yuan, a few people moved the logs away, and waited for the car to go back again, so many trips a day, the money is also hard money.

Su Nan said: "They are from Shiling, and they also have a coal mine at home?" ”

"Yes, it's a big mine, the scale was still small when the two of them were there, and now I heard that it has expanded, how many years have I been digging, and I am still mining!"

"Their son took over?"

"We know this, no, it was acquired by a big boss from out of town! As for whether their son is there or not, we don't know. ”

Su Nan glanced at Xu Zirui, and also noticed a trace of doubt in the other party's eyes, and said to several old people: "You also have to be careful, when you are old, you are exposed to the wind and sun outside, and your children are not at ease when they are in the field." ”

"Okay, okay, we have a number, alas, this man is old, and he doesn't want to add a burden to his children, so he wants to earn something!"

"If you earn more and earn less, you just don't cause trouble to your children!"

Although this kind of roadblock blackmail is very despicable and suspected of violating the law, it is really impossible to say cruel words in the face of these people.

Su Nan simply didn't say anything more, said goodbye to them, and a few people continued to set off towards Shiling.

Su Chen's father was indeed a dry coal miner back then, but he didn't expect to find a huge coal mine in his homestead, and immediately went to the mine to mine.

At that time, he seemed to be able to see the future, and to see that the living conditions of his family would be greatly improved.

But the family has no chance of improvement, leaving only a young son and a treasure trove of wealth.

Most of the residents of Shiling have made their fortunes from coal mines, and the so-called coal bosses who own the big mines have moved their families to other places.

In addition to large mines, there are also family-run workshops, small mines mined by manpower, mined in limited quantities per day, and usually saved up to a certain amount before being transported.

They have seen many of these workshops along the way, because the mining equipment is old, and safety has always been a major hidden danger.

Fortunately, the town government of Shiling was not far away, and they went straight to the government office compound, two three-story buildings, which were also of decent scale.

When I went in, I directly explained my intentions, and someone immediately went to inform the secretary of the town party committee, the criminal police from City A, this is the first time, and no one dares to slack off.

The secretary of the town party committee is a middle-aged man in his early forties, with a dark complexion and a simple dress.

As soon as he entered the door, he shook hands with them one by one and invited people into his office: "You three are from City A?" Why did you come? Was it a mine accident that happened before us? ”

Xu Zirui shook his head: "No, it's for a murder case ten years ago." ”

The secretary looked surprised: "Ten years ago? It's been a few years, so what do you need my help with? You just say. ”

"Okay, there was a mudslide caused by a landslide in Shiling ten years ago, and a couple who opened a coal mine were stoned to death, do you have any impression?"
