Liu Hai didn't ask anything. After all, it was not a factory. An accident in any factory would be troublesome.
After getting off work in the afternoon, as soon as he entered the house, Xu Damao appeared and whispered: "Something happened to Jia Dongxu, on the spot..."
"What happened?" Liu Hai opened the door and asked while turning on the briquette stove.
Xu Damao said: "Jia Dongxu smoked at noon, and he smoked a relatively good cigarette. One of Jia Dongxu's creditors saw it and said a few words, and Jia Dongxu fell out. The other creditors also came up and started fighting for some reason. During the struggle, the buttons of my clothes were torn off, and somehow my clothes got caught in the machine in the afternoon. It is said that I was in a terrible state and my body was deformed."
"The first uncle, the second uncle, and the people in the factory have just sent Jia Dongxu back to the countryside for burial. Qin Huairu and Banggen have also returned to the countryside together." Xu Damao added.
When Liu Hai heard this, he sighed: "This guy, I can't explain clearly."
"But it seems that I heard that Jia Zhang was sent back to his hometown a few years ago, and it seems that he got married. It is said that the local people found a powerful man for Jia Zhang and asked him to strictly discipline Jia Zhang." Xu Damao added.
When Liu Hai heard this, he was very surprised and asked: "Brother Xu, how did you know?"
"Both the second uncle and the first uncle know that the streets should be careful and don't let Jia Zhang enter the city again." Xu Damao said.
Then Xu Damao shook his head: "Those who struggled with Jia Dongxu at noon were unlucky."
"Why?"
"Accidents caused by fights are called man-made accidents. It is not a fight but an operational error. If an operational error occurs, the workshop director will be criticized." Xu Damao said in a low voice.
Liu Hai understood that there was such a saying in it. Xu Damao chuckled: "When Jia Dongxu married Qin Huairu, I said that he was not strong enough to hold down women. The more beautiful a woman is, the more strength she needs. Only a man can hold it down."
When Liu Hai heard this, he was noncommittal. Xu Damao continued: "Qin Huairu might be relieved. I heard Jia Dongxu beat and scold Qin Huairu several times. A woman's family has no job, and half of the man's salary must be paid back. It's good to smoke. Jia Dongxu is also a good smoker. He is addicted to cigarettes. Why don't you buy some dry cigarettes? You can buy a big handful for 20 cents and smoke for a few months."
Liu Hai also lamented: "Working in a factory, you must follow the instructions."
Xu Damao took a sip of water and said, "The master looked pale this afternoon."
Liu Hai was still feeling very emotional. Jia Dongxu didn't have many friends with him, and he wasn't a nice person. Although he expected his death, he didn't expect it to come so suddenly.
Xu Damao was gone, and Xu Damao was a little bit sad. He didn't expect that Jia Dongxu would be gone by himself, and he would be gone as soon as he said so.
As soon as Liu Hai came to work the next day, the factory director held a factory-wide meeting to learn about safe operations. He also strictly investigated irregular operations and punished those found guilty.
The factory director talks, the secretary talks, and then each workshop director goes up to talk about what his or her workshop will do next.
Half a day passed like this, which is actually not bad. In future generations, once a serious accident occurs somewhere, various units may have to stop for a week or more to study safety and check the company's safety measures. In fact, some usual tasks are not in place. , I’m afraid that if the authorities find out, I will be criticized.
Generally speaking, after an accident, the superiors will not come down to check other colleagues within a week, giving you enough time to make corrections on your own. They will come down to check later, but you haven’t changed yet... hum!
When I got home from get off work on the third day, the first and second uncles came back.
The second uncle and Liu Hai sat face to face. The second uncle sighed: "I didn't expect that a living person would be gone."
"Buried?" Liu Hai nodded and asked.
"It's buried. Fortunately, the factory people contacted the local township or village first. Otherwise, it would have been a big trouble."
"Jia and Zhang are still fighting for the pension given by the factory. The men married by Jia and Zhang in the countryside also look like they want money."
"Qin Huairu's family also came, as well as Jia Dongxu's Jia family, and they had a fight. The Jia family drove Jia and Zhang away. If they dared to enter Jiajia Village again, their legs would be broken, and they were not allowed to use it. "Jia" is the name, and the man named Jia Zhang was beaten almost to death." The second uncle said while smoking a cigarette.
When Liu Hai heard this, he also curiously asked: "Jia Zhang has remarried, why do you have the nerve to fight for Jia Dongxu's pension? It's weird as long as someone in the Jia family doesn't get killed, and she brings the remarried man with her?"
"It is said that Jia and Zhang remarried in Wangjiatun, next door to Jia's family."
"The factory arranged for Qin Huairu to take over. The creditors who were entangled with Jia Dongxu in the factory pooled together a sum of money, and when Banggeng reached the age of succession, Banggeng would take over. The factory had an agreement with local cadres and other members of the Jia family. Then they were buried.”
"But it cost a fortune to bury Jia Dongxu. There is not much left for the coffin and other things. He still owes Lao Yi a large sum. Jia Dongxu is really not a thing. He has lived a good life like this." The second uncle shook his head. said.
People of this era still like to live an honest life. When Liu Hai heard this, he asked: "Second uncle, how is the recovery of stolen goods at the police station? You can go and ask. You are now in charge of the yard and the director of the workshop, so Whoever is given more stolen money and who is given less does not depend on the situation."
"Hey, Xiao Hai, you have a good idea. I'll go and ask about it tomorrow." The second uncle really wanted to do something, and hearing Liu Hai's words felt a bit manipulative.
The second uncle added: "I don't know if my thinking is wrong. I feel that Jia Dongxu's death will make their family better off. With Jia Dongxu's bad state, I'm afraid the family will never be able to get up."
"Hey, second uncle, you are kind-hearted. You, the administrator of the hospital, can send Jia Dongxu back to his hometown. Your merits are already immeasurable." Liu Hai consoled him.
"I like what you say. Qin Huairu won't come back until March 7th, so he won't be able to eat as much cabbage."
"I said it is yours to give to you. You can do whatever you want with it. I can feed myself and the whole family will not be hungry. The cafeteria is convenient."
"That's okay."
What Liu Hai didn't know was that the second uncle went to the police station the next day and asked about some stolen goods that had not been disposed of. However, considering what the second uncle said, Jia Dongxu's family could come and get the money first when they had time.
The second uncle was very happy when he heard this. I think the second uncle's mentality was that he felt that the compound was his own territory.
In fact, it's almost the same. Every yard on the street is competing with each other. Whoever manages the yard well will have a reputation in the surrounding area.
Last night when Liu Hai was talking to the second uncle, a middle-aged man from Hong Kong took a few men and took advantage of the darkness to get ashore from a barge. There were already people on the shore to receive him. After a simple handshake, this A middle-aged man, accompanied by several men, embarked on his journey north.
