Chapter Twenty-Seven: Money Slam
Mo Bao laughed and said proudly, "Wow, there's finally something you don't know!" Quack, Raven knows! Just behind our mountain, the mud of that mountain is red! ”
Xianghua was overjoyed and touched Mobao's feathers: "How do you know?" Have you been? ”
"Raven hasn't been there, but Raven has heard! Recently, a lot of other birds have come to the mountain, and many of them have moved from that mountain! ”
"Why did they move here?"
Mobao flapped his wings: "The tree of that mountain is gone!" You go and see! ”
Xianghua followed Mobao to the height of Xiaoqing Mountain, she held on to a tree trunk and looked into the distance, and sure enough, she saw the mountain that Mobao said.
"Aren't there many trees here? Where are there no trees? ”
"Chop, chop, chop!" Mobao quacked, "They've all been cut down!" ”
Xianghua took a closer look at the location of the mountain, which is between Qingshan Village and Baishi Village, but I haven't heard that there is a charcoal or paper-making workshop here, what are you doing by cutting down trees?
In the evening, when the family was in a hurry, Xianghua returned.
Cheng Linchang was a little angry: "Xianghua, where have you been?" Taro said that you went along the Qingshui River, and we didn't find you for a long time! ”
Xianghua hurriedly apologized: "Dad, I rested for a while when I was tired, which made you worried." I'm fine, let's eat. ”
Donglin asked excitedly: "Sister, have you found anything?" I've heard what Deng'er said, Granny Yuan is waiting for your news! ”
Xianghua smiled embarrassedly: "It's a bit eyebrow-raising, but it's still a little bit." Dad, do you know why the mountain behind Xiaoqing Mountain is cutting down trees? ”
Cheng Linchang recalled, "I haven't heard of cutting trees, but the village says that there is a copper mine on that mountain, and the government has sent people to mine it." ”
Copper mining?
Xianghua suddenly realized. She asked, "Is it from the government?" ”
"I don't know." Cheng Linchang touched his head.
Taro said: "It's okay to say that other mines are very important, and the government must have sent reliable people." ”
Xianghua nodded again and again, if it is mining, then everything makes sense. She picked up her rice bowl and thought about what she would do tomorrow as she ate - to look around the copper mine and find the person in charge......
"Sister." Kanae called her suddenly.
Xianghua stopped her hand and said blankly: "Huh? What to do? ”
Xiangmiao pointed to her bowl: "You haven't had rice in your bowl yet, what are you eating?" ”
Xianghua looked down at the bowl in her hand, and the bowl was indeed empty.
The family of five couldn't help but laugh.
Cheng Linchang didn't stop Xianghua, he listened to Xianghua explain what he wanted to do clearly and without ambiguity, he felt that Xianghua was more reliable than him.
"I'm not worried about anything else, Taro will go with Hua'er today, you two bring some dry food, go early and come back early."
Xianghua glanced at the taro with a smile and said sweetly to her father: "Okay, I know!" ”
Donglin and Xiangmiao reluctantly sent them away for a while, if it weren't for the fact that the two of them were still too young, Xianghua would have wanted to ask them to go together.
Taro walked ahead and asked, "We will probably not be able to arrive at the time, what will you do when we get there?" ”
The old god of fragrant flowers said three words: "Look at it." ”
Taro paused, and shook his head.
This girl is smart for a while and stupid for a while, and she is not in shape.
"It's almost there." Xianghua pointed to the red dirt along the way.
These miners don't know what to think, and the dirt is just piled up like this. For convenience, the trees in the middle of the mountain have also been cut down, Xianghua saw the side yesterday, and today I went up the mountain to see, and I really felt that it was very shocking.
In the past few days, it has rained continuously, and the mud and sand have all flowed into the Qingshui River. The old people of Granny Yuan and Grandpa Tiezhu's generation never thought that there was such a possibility, and they were almost ready to die.
"Taro, what will they say if I told them that two old men were going to die because of the red mud and sand in the river?"
"Jokes."
Xianghua pursed her lips and stared at him for a while, shook her head and muttered, "I hope we guessed wrong." ”
A moment later, Xianghua and Taro were dejected on the way down the mountain.
Xianghua was indignant: "That money is full, it's really ...... It's really not human! ”
Taro couldn't laugh or cry, he had expected this to be the result. Officials and businessmen collude, and the people are the people who suffer, so how can they care if you live or die?
Xianghua squatted on the side of the road, and it began to rain again, and Taro stood next to her with an umbrella.
"Why didn't this thing be retributed to them, why did Granny Yuan and Grandpa Tiezhu want to die in vain?" The more Xianghua thought about it, the more angry she became.
Taro said: "You did your best, just go back and tell them the truth." ”
"If you can't stop them from messing around like this again, this truth is useless."
Xianghua knew very well that if the rain continued to fall, their Qingshan Village would usher in a flood or mudslide.
We have to think of a way, otherwise not only Granny Yuan and Grandpa Tiezhu will be dying.
Taro suddenly looked to the side, his expression vigilant: "What is it?" ”
Xianghua looked up and saw a white figure jumping out from behind the mound, which was an ingot.
Yuan Bao squinted his eyes and glanced at the taro first, and then walked leisurely towards Xianghua.
"Do you remember it?" Yuan Bao shook off the rain under the umbrella, and Xianghua wiped it with a dry handkerchief.
The taro snorted.
At that time, he was so badly injured that he couldn't move, and he was about to be discovered by the killer who was chasing him, but at the last moment, it was the big white cat that grabbed his clothes and quietly dragged him away.
Xianghua smiled and introduced: "This is ingot, we are friends." ”
Taro glanced at her suspiciously, but Xianghua lowered her head and asked how Yuan Bao came here.
Yuan Bao meowed.
Xianghua: "Ah, you've been here for a long time?" ”
"Meow."
Xianghua: "Do you have a way?" ”
Yuan Bao nodded, "Meow, meow." ”
Xianghua said seriously: "Okay, I know, you be careful." ”
Yuan Bao meowed again, turned and ran towards the mountain.
Xianghua put away the veil and turned her head to find that Taro was staring at her.
"Can you understand cats?"
Xianghua raised her eyebrows and said lightly, "What's so strange about this?" We've been together for a long time, and even if you don't understand, you can guess something. Yuan Bao said that he had a way to get the miners to stop first. ”
"How?"
"Well, I'm not sure if I can do it now, I'll talk about it later. Now we're going to have to go for another money slam. ”
Qian Mangong has a big waist and a round waist, and he is full of confidence, and someone is holding an umbrella for him at this moment, and he is sitting on a chair to supervise the work.
"Hurry up, hurry up, be quick! Does giving you so much pay and feeding you every day makes you like a king? Do you still want to do it? Hmph, none of them are worry-free! ”
Xianghua politely shouted: "Boss Qian." ”
Qian Manguan glanced at her with triangular eyes, and said impatiently, "Why are you here again?" What about the people at the door? ”
Xianghua laughed: "Boss Qian, don't be angry, I'll leave after I say a few words." ”
"Speak up if you have something to say!" He picked up the small teacup next to him.
Xianghua suppressed her temper and said: "You said that the Red River is none of your business, so this mine is your business, right?" ”
