"I know, I know, I know the approximate location of that coal mine..."

After hearing the middle-aged driver's words, the fat man hurriedly said, "The coal mine I am going to is out of the city and walking fifty kilometers northeast. Brother, is my direction right now?"

“Fifty kilometers northeast?”

Hearing the fat man's words, the middle-aged driver thought for a moment, looked back at his companion, and said, "What he was talking about should be Lianshan Coal Mine? It seems that the direction he was talking about was more in line with Lianshan Coal Mine..."

"It's Lianshan Coal Mine, but it's a little closer than he said, and it's only more than 40 kilometers away from the city..." The middle-aged driver's companion nodded. Their semi-trailer was specially used to pull coal, so he knew all the big and small coal mines around Phoenix City, and he had basically dealt with them., Chinese, novels...

"I just said it wrong, it's about forty kilometers..."

Hearing the conversation between the two, the fat man took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket, and without taking them apart, he put them in front of the driver, and said, "Brother Driver, where is the exact location of the Lianshan Coal Mine? What is the situation inside? Can you tell us?"

"Of course, coal mines are mined..."

The driver laughed when he heard this, honestly and unceremoniously opened the pack of cigarettes, took it out and dispersed it for his companion, and even put the box in his pocket. His behavior also made many people around him curse in their hearts. People here can basically answer the things the fat man asked.

After lit a cigarette, he took a good sip. The middle-aged driver pointed to the outside of the hotel and said, "You have not taken the wrong path. There is a fork in the road four or five kilometers ahead. Turning in, it is a road into the mountain. It looks like you drive six or seven miles along the road. It is Lianshan Coal Mine..."

"Then isn't this coal mine in the deep mountains?" the fat man asked with a confused look on his face.

"There are many coal mines in the mountains..." The driver said with a smile: "There are two types of coal mines, one is open-pit mine and the other is underground mine. Open-pit mines are easier to mine, and underground mines are time-consuming and labor-intensive..."

"Brother, you know so much. Is the Lianshan Coal Mine underground or open-air? Is it private or state-owned?" The fat man showed a strong desire for knowledge, and looked at the driver with his eyes shining. His admiration made the driver embarrassed not to talk.

"Most of the private, state-owned coal mines are concentrated in the west..."

The driver thought for a while and said, "Lianshan Coal Mine is a relatively large mine in a private coal mine. The quality of the refined coal produced is also relatively high. However, the coal in this mine is too deep underground, not easy to mine, and there are frequent accidents. I heard that several people died in the landslide under the mine cave last year..."

"Is anyone dead?" The fat man looked as if he was amazed, "I heard that deaths from coal mines were a big accident. A few years ago, a landslide was collapsed under a coal mine, and even CCTV reported it..."

"What a big accident, which small coal mine is a private coal mine that won't kill anyone?" The middle-aged driver looked sneering at the fat man's words. Not only him, but even the drivers next to him looked disapproving.

"Young man, I will tell you one thing, that is, the people will not prosecute officials, and as long as no one sues, the government will not care about these idiots..."

"Can the family of the deceased be willing?"

Fang Yi, who had not spoken, suddenly flashed a light in his heart. He seemed to have grabbed something and interrupted, "It's no small matter to die, right? How can the coal boss solve the problem after the dead? Are they not afraid that the family of the deceased will go to the government to file a lawsuit?"

"Brother, in Jin Province, death is really not a big deal..."

After hearing Fang Yi's words, the driver curled his lips, "How much do you think the life of those hard laborers can be worth? If you die, you will die. At most, you will be able to pay some money. The family members will not make trouble after taking the money, because if they make trouble, they will not get the money..."

According to the national policy, whether it is a state-owned enterprise or a private coal mine, after a safety accident, inspections must be paused. These inspections often last for several months, and relevant departments will also send inspection teams to settle in.

However, even if state-owned enterprises can implement these policies, private coal mines do not take this policy seriously. You must know that if they pause for one day, they will lose money for one day. If they pause for a few months, it will be like cutting their flesh with a knife.

Therefore, after a safety accident occurs in a private coal mine, the usual practice is to contact the family of the deceased, and then negotiate with the family a number that both parties can accept, and in the end it is to lose money, the difference is just how much it will be paid.

Because the mining tools of small coal mines and private coal mines are relatively simple, and the rules and regulations for going down the mines are also very imperfect, the accident rate is still very high. Basically, a few people die every year in which small coal mines and private coal mines have long been used to this. Drivers who often go to coal mines have long been accustomed to this.

"I really don't take human lives seriously..."

After listening to the driver telling these things, a sharp light shot out in Fang Yi's eyes, coal mine accident, death, and compensation, these words were connected together. Thinking that the fool and Si Yuanjie who were found by You Long and Youhu brothers were orphans, Fang Yi's originally confused head began to gradually become clear.

"Fatty, let's go!" Fang Yi stood up suddenly and walked to the checkout place at the entrance of the hotel to throw down a hundred yuan.

"Hey, Brother Yi, I...I haven't started eating yet..." Seeing Fang Yi leave the hotel, the fat man suddenly screamed in anger. He was just shopping for the driver's words, but the knife-cut noodles he came up didn't move at all.

"Take two cakes and eat them in the car..." Fang Yi said without replying.

"Okay, just eat cake..." The fat man muttered, took two sesame cakes from the basket next to the counter, followed Fang Yi and Sanpao and chased them out.

"Hey, young man, if you want to buy coal, don't forget to find me..." The driver, who didn't know why these people suddenly left, shouted behind the fat man: "If you need a cart to pull coal, please contact me. I'll calculate the cheapest shipping fee for you..."

"Okay, brother, wait, I'll call you..." The fat man waved behind him, but rushed into the van, and said angrily: "Isn't this coal trafficking just dumping coal? Coal dumping is unlucky. Fat man, I don't do this..."

"Stop talking about those useless things, let's go to the Lianshan Coal Mine first..."

Fang Yi's face was quite serious and said to the fat man: "You just thought about a quick trick. When you turned around, you went to the Lianshan coal mine and said that we are here to buy coal. Fat man, you are quick-talking. I will leave it to you for dealing with people in the coal mine..."

"Brother Yi, have you seen something?" The fat man didn't have Fang Yi's insight, and he was just so happy to talk, and he didn't think so much about it.

"Fatty, your brain is really a mess..." After fighting with Fatty for more than ten years, Sanpao would not miss any chance to hit him verbally.

"Your mind is just a mess. Why didn't you get up and talk to me just now..."

The fat man glared at Sanpao unhappily and said, "If it weren't for my loneliness, would we know what coal mine Si Yuanjie is in now? So if we can find Si Yuanjie, I will make the first contribution..."

"Fatty is right. When you find Si Yuanjie, you are the first to win!" Fang Yi, who was originally serious, was also amused by the fat man's words, and said immediately: "Fatty, I'll ask you, are there any similarities between Si Yuanjie and that fool?"

"Same thing? No?"

The fat man scratched his head when he heard this and said, "Si Yuanjie is not stupid. I said to Brother Yi, don't look at that boy who is quite kind, he is actually a bad guy. When he sells things, he kills people more ruthless than me, and he is much smarter than Sanpao..."

"What's wrong with me..." Sanpao looked at the fat man speechlessly. The revenge came so quickly.

"Fatty, your IQ is not much better than that fool..." Fang Yi smiled bitterly and shook his head. Sometimes his fat brother is very smart, but sometimes his mind cannot be turned around. He cannot find many obvious things.

"Brother Yi, you can insult my personality, but not my IQ!" Hearing Fang Yi's words, the fat man was furious. If he hadn't known that his martial arts value was far lower than Fang Yi, the fat man really planned to take action and measure it with Fang Yi.

"Fatty, think about it again, do you really have nothing in common between Si Yuanjie and that fool?" Fang Yi glanced at the fat man and gave him a chance to save his IQ.

"Hey, I remember, these two brothers have something in common!"

The fat man who was thinking hard suddenly slapped his head and said, "Brother Yi, Si Yuanjie is a man, and that fool is also a man. Isn't this the common point? How about it, my IQ is still good..."

"I can even see this in common!" Fang Yi moaned in his throat. This fat man was hopeless.

"Si Yuanjie is an orphan, and that fool is also an orphan. Tell me if they disappear in this world, will anyone think about them and look for them?"

Seeing that there was a fork in the mountain ahead, Fang Yi was too lazy to talk nonsense with the fat man anymore, and directly told what he was thinking. In fact, as early as in Hebei Province, Fang Yi learned that the You brothers had taken away a fool, and this idea vaguely appeared in his heart.

"Everyone said they were orphans, who would think of them?"

After hearing Fang Yi's words, the fat man understood a little, but he was far from thinking as thoroughly as Fang Yi. The main reason was that the fat man had not yet thought about the motives of the You brothers and others to take Si Yuanjie and the fool out.

"No one cares about it, that is to say, Si Yuanjie and the fool die, no one will pursue it. Fatty, don't you understand?" Sanpao looked at the fat man with contempt, and said this, but the fat man was still confused.

"You...you mean, the You brothers and others are trying to kill themselves for money? But...but they don't have money either..."

As soon as the fat man was halfway through his words, he suddenly showed a shocked expression on his face, and he immediately slapped him hard on the head, "Grandma, they have no money, but the coal boss has money. These grandchildren are really cruel!"—

ps: I have been attending Qidian Salon in the past few days. This update, Fatty will not say anything, which makes me ashamed for a while (to be continued.)
