Chapter 215 Seizing food from the tiger's mouth (Part 2)
A man wearing a floral shirt with his belly open and a hideous tattoo on his chest walked up to Liu Sili, pointed at Liu Sili and cursed loudly.
"Tell that foreigner to get out!" He looked arrogant and completely ignored the pistol in Liu Sili's hand, which was pointed at the ground. He took two steps and slapped Liu Sili's face with his hand. "Bring out a fire stick. How can I scare you?"
"Hey, what's going on? You have to stand up for that foreigner, right?!" He opened his eyes and patted Liu Sili's face with a little more force.
"Don't touch my face again!" Liu Sili felt waves of blood rushing to his head. The scene of humiliation in the morning seemed to be repeated in front of thousands of people.
The face was slapped even harder. The man in front of him was Wei San, Brigadier Hu's best assistant. Liu Sili couldn't hear clearly what he was saying. He just felt his head was dizzy. The picture in his eyes was
This hateful face was shouting something to himself with saliva flying all over the place.
"I told you not to touch my face again!" Liu Sili suddenly raised his pistol and put it against Wei San's forehead.
In exchange for bursts of laughter, Wei San's smile became even more contemptuous, "Come on, shoot! Haha, I'm so embarrassed!" He reached out to hold Liu Sili's hand holding the gun, and shouted loudly: "Come on, shoot, shoot!
"
Suddenly, Wei San staggered, and gunshots rang out.
Inside the window of the town office, Lu Ming was also pushed down by Hei Tou, and was pinned down by Hei Tou's muscular body.
Outside, there was already a chaos, and screams and screams could be heard everywhere.
…
When Lu Ming stood on the street, most of the miners had disappeared, and there were still many squatting on the ground with their hands on their heads, including many child laborers who were as small as carrots.
The surrounding shops all have their doors boarded up.
There were seven or eight people on the ground, some holding their guns and screaming, or lying on the ground. They were all neatly dressed. At first glance, they looked like Wei San, foremen of the mine, or the cronies of Brigadier Hu.
them.
Scattered around them were shotguns, firecrackers, machetes and the like.
Wei San was shot in the temple, and the blood hole was shocking. His body lay at Liu Sili's feet, already dead.
Liu Sili stood there in despair, maintaining this posture for a long, long time.
Uncle Sun was calling some miners to help and take the injured to the health center in this town.
Lu Ming walked up to Liu Sili and patted him on the shoulder, "Well done. The bandit gathered his accomplices to besiege the town hall, and then tried to steal Qian's firearms. You shot him to death on the spot. He deserved his death."
Ah..., Liu Sili came back to his senses, looked at the corpse under him, suddenly turned around and ran away, squatted down, and started vomiting.
"Young Master..." Uncle Sun brought over a miner, "He is Zhang Agou."
A swarthy man in his forties had a face full of panic. He didn't know how these terrible people knew his name. Moreover, when he asked loudly who he was, his companions who were squatting next to him all moved aside secretly.
, he was carried out.
Lu Ming looked at Zhang Agou and smiled. When the gun went off, everyone died. Most of the miners ran away. Those who were frightened and squatted on the ground when they were shouted at were all close and obedient. It turned out that Zhang Agou was also inside.
You don't have to go to so much trouble to find him.
"You are the foreman of the mine owner before Brigadier Hu, right? You have a good reputation. In this way, I will rely on you to manage the mine from now on. You go back and tell all the miners, and the matter will be over. I won't
From now on, just do your best and I will increase your remuneration as appropriate!"
Zhang Agou agreed repeatedly, almost as if he was dreaming.
He had a clearer mind than most of the workers in the town, and he immediately knew that the new mine owner had obviously come prepared. Not only the details of Brigadier Hu, but also their hard-working friends were well known.
She was even covered in cold sweat, "Yes, yes, Master, I, we were all coerced. Master, please don't blame us."
"You..." Lu Ming nodded, "Don't worry, just go and reassure everyone. They are all my workers. There will always be a running-in period, right?" I think this person is not wrong, so I use "we"
It's not "I" who comes to plead for mercy, which is a bit responsible.
Then he said: "If you do this, call everyone to the mine at three o'clock in the afternoon. I have something to say."
Zhang Agou agreed repeatedly, and apologized for a long time in fear, before bowing and leaving.
"Are you feeling better?" Lu Ming came to Liu Sili who had just stood up.
Liu Sili's face was pale and he wiped the dirt at the corner of his mouth with a handkerchief. However, he was completely awake now. He was definitely not the one who shot Wei San, and his pistol was still full of bullets.
But looking at the young man in front of him, Liu Sili didn't say much and nodded gently: "Mr. Lu, I'm much better."
"Then Brigadier Hu ordered a group of Wei San gangsters to attack the town hall. I think the county will soon issue a wanted order for him."
Listening to the calm words of this "Mr. Lu", Liu Sili's heart trembled again.
That's it? Is Brigadier Hu finished?
Is it that simple?
Just can't believe it.
"Well, Sili, do you have any candidates who are reliable and have run coal mines?" Lu Ming asked.
Liu Sili was startled and looked at Lu Ming: "What do you mean, Mr. Lu?"
Lu Ming said: "I can't stay here forever. After settling things here in the past two days, I will go back to Donghai. I will come back in a few days when I have free time."
In Jiangning, it is impossible to do anything in ten and a half months, or even a few months.
Now we have a small property for the time being. We have planted a flag here and will take our time in the future.
Go back to Donghai to handle the affairs there, and come back when you have free time.
Just think of yourself as a hard worker. When you come to this world, you have to travel to two places.
Fortunately, it only takes a dozen hours to get from Donghai to Longgang. The round trip can be regarded as two days. The first-class carriage of the train is quite comfortable, and if you travel frequently, you can also prepare a car in Montenegro to travel to and from Longgang without wasting too much time.
.
During his absence, he naturally needs knowledgeable and reliable people to keep an eye on the Sansha Coal Mine.
Moreover, once I leave, many people will feel at ease, thinking that Magistrate Xiyang doesn't have much appetite, and everyone will be able to run around and dance.
Liu Sili hesitated, "Let me help you think about it? Are you in a hurry?"
Lu Ming smiled again: "Sili, I heard that your father, my uncle, is an old coal dealer. He was the accountant and right-hand assistant of a coal mine owner more than 20 years ago. Otherwise, I wouldn't be able to send you to study in the city, right?"
"
Liu Sili was startled, almost like Zhang Agou, and sweat gradually broke out on his forehead.
I thought that this was just a dandy who came here with his relatives to gain glory, but I didn't expect that before he came, I was afraid that anyone who might be related to Sansha Town would have their ancestors checked out for eight generations.
"I wonder if uncle is willing to go out again? In the evening, I will visit his old man." Lu Ming said with a smile.
Liu Sili came back to his senses and said with a wry smile: "Then there is no need to trouble Mr. Lu. I just brought my father to visit Mr. Lu. To be honest with Mr. Lu, if you know this letter, my father will be dancing with joy. He doesn't know how much he wants to work.
, but times have changed. Nowadays, in these coal mines, it is popular to imprison illegal workers for work. My father has always disliked it and even wrote a letter to report it, so he has a bad reputation. No mine owner is willing to hire him anymore. "
"In my mine, there are more than a dozen imprisoned illegal workers doing the most tiring and dangerous work, right? They're all bullshit?" Lu Ming said calmly.
Liu Sili remained silent. There were very few coal mines in Sansha. It was not because Brigadier Hu was merciful, but because there were fewer and fewer people who could be tricked into working as coal workers in Longgang and then imprisoned as illegal workers. Their reputation was bad. Many outsiders had already
You know, those who are recruited to work in Longgang to dig coal are like death notices. Many people go to Longgang and have no news.
Brigadier Hu entered this business late, and the amount of illegal work he could obtain through deception was limited.
"Okay, let's go have lunch!" Lu Ming looked at his watch and ended the conversation, which made him feel unhappy.
