Chapter 1720 The mourning of migrant workers

When Liu Qingyu arrived at the construction site, the rescue work was in progress. Guo Changde, secretary of the Lujiao County Party Committee, and Zhu Linzhi, the county magistrate, were standing at the scene to personally direct the rescue forces. With the assistance of the workers, various rescue forces moved carefully. Open scaffolding and other various objects and carefully rescue the workers who fell below.

Seeing Liu Qingyu coming, Guo Changde, Zhu Linzhi and others quickly came over to say hello to Liu Qingyu. Liu Qingyu waved his hand directly and said: "No need to be polite, just tell me how the situation is at the scene."

Seeing this, Guo Changde quickly said: "Mayor Liu, so far, 9 people have died and 8 people have been injured. Three of them were seriously injured and five were slightly injured. There should be some workers who were hit below. We are working hard to rescue them." middle."

When he heard that nine people had died, Liu Qingyu's face suddenly darkened.

9 people, that's 9 lives. Although they were all migrant workers, in Liu Qingyu's eyes, migrant workers were the same as all the citizens of Luming City. There was no distinction between high and low. Every one of them was Everyone is the backbone of their family. They use their hard work, sweat, and blood to nourish their family and raise their children. Maybe their generation is migrant workers, but it is very likely that they will be next generation. Among the children of a generation, there may be a good official who serves the country and the people, a Chinese Bill Gates, and a new era Jack Ma.

The life of migrant workers is very hard, and Liu Qingyu of this generation is deeply touched by it, because Liu Qingyu had the experience of living in rural areas when he was a child, and he deeply felt the bitterness, sweetness, and sourness of rural life at that time, and felt the hardships of peasant life. It was not easy to feel the simple character of farmers. Because of this, Liu Qingyu was able to deeply understand farmers and migrant workers.

Liu Qingyu knows very well that for farmers, if farming and farming at home can make them worry-free and have enough food and clothing, then they will never go out to work. A warm bed for their wives and children is what many farmers pursue.

However, the reality is cruel.

Although the country has now abolished agricultural taxes, grain subsidies, and guided grain collection prices, for farmers, farming is still a very low-income industry. After a year of hard work, it is hard to catch up with the good years. Scenery, maybe you can earn four to five hundred yuan per acre of grain after excluding the cost. If you grow cash crops, you may be able to earn eighteen hundred yuan. But once the market goes bad, it would be a good thing if you can guarantee that you will not lose money. Ah, after all, the prices of agricultural production materials such as fertilizers and seeds are skyrocketing almost every year, forcing farmers to rely on farming to support themselves and feed their families. It has become almost a luxury.

Therefore, there are more and more migrant workers, and more and more farmers are going out to work, which has caused the problem of left-behind children and left-behind women. The problem of left-behind women is becoming more and more serious. When he is in the office, Liu Qingyu often thinks about these issues. Thinking about solutions, especially the various national guiding policies, Liu Qingyu conducted in-depth research, and based on the national policies and the current situation of Luming City, he thought about how to solve the problem.

At this time, two migrant workers were carried out on a stretcher by the doctor. One of the migrant workers had a steel bar inserted into his chest, and his chest was stained with blood. The migrant worker next to him had a broken arm and was covered in blood. body.

The migrant worker with the steel bar looked at the steel bar on his chest, smiled sadly, glanced at the migrant worker next to him, and said loudly with all his strength: "Shi Laosan, we two brothers are from the same hometown, I guess I won't survive this time. If you can, please help me collect my salary for more than two months before this year after you recover from the injury, and send it back to my wife and mother. They and their two children who are in elementary school are still here. We are waiting for the salary to live on. Also, last year we worked for the Third Construction of Luming City for a whole year and they have not paid us the salary yet. If you can get it back at some time, please help me give it to my wife. I took my wife back with me. My mother is over eighty this year and needs to take medicine every day. My two children will soon go to junior high school and they have to spend a lot of money. It is not easy for my wife to support the whole family by herself. I originally wanted to earn some money to support my family, but I didn't expect to die in Lujiao County. It's really bad luck, Shi Laosan, brother, I beg you."

"Brother Sun, don't say that in front of you. You will be fine. Believe in yourself and the doctors. They will definitely save you." Shi Laosan tried his best to comfort Brother Sun and said.

When Brother Sun heard this, he couldn't help but smile bitterly. After spitting out a large mouthful of blood, a blush flashed across his face. At that moment, his spirit seemed to become very good, and his voice seemed to be full of energy: "Shi Laosan, I know my physical condition well. I know that I won't live long. When people are about to die, they also speak well. I know that when we two brothers were together in the past, I liked to occupy your little one. It's cheap. I like to make you pay when I go out for a drink. Don't blame me. I'm born that way too. My family is poor. My two children haven't bought new clothes for two or three years. They always wear the same clothes. They are leftovers worn by relatives. As a father, I feel ashamed of them. I can only break a penny in half and spend it. You must not bear grudges against me. If you feel unbalanced, I am helping you. After I receive my salary, I will use part of it as compensation for taking advantage of you. For the rest of the money, I beg you to help me take it home, I beg... please... please."

As he spoke, a stream of blood gushed out from the corner of his mouth again, and his eyes began to widen. He looked at Shi Laosan with expectation and longing. His eyes gradually became blurry, but his eyes were still tight. Staring at Shi Laosan, he refused to close his eyes. At some point, his slightly raised neck was no longer able to support his head, and his head was already leaning on the stretcher, but his eyes were still staring. He looked at Shi Laosan wide and expectantly, waiting for his reply.

At this time, the doctor next to him checked Brother Sun's condition and sighed: "He is dead." As he said that, the doctor gently placed his hand on Brother Sun's eyelids, trying to cover his eyelids. Eye.

However, when he reached down and touched it, he found that Brother Sun's eyes were staring like that, and his eyelids refused to close no matter what.

At this time, Shi Laosan next to him suddenly felt sad. He remembered that the two of them went out to work together, worked on the construction site together, bought a bottle of cheap wine for 5 yuan a bottle, and asked for a plate of peanuts in their free time. Dou, when he was drinking and bragging about B, the tears in his eyes could no longer stop flowing down. His voice was choked and he said: "Brother Sun, don't worry, I will make every penny more of your salary." I will help you get it back, and I will help you send it back to your home for a penny. As for the fact that you took advantage of me, I have never cared about it, because I know that the situation at your home is not good. , the situation in my family is much better than yours, and I didn’t care when I came out, so you can go with ease, go, I believe that the government will definitely account for you and your family."

While speaking, Shi Laosan was already bursting into tears.

The reason why he said this was actually just to comfort Brother Sun, because last year they worked hard for a year in the city's third construction, but as a result, they were not given a penny for the wages that were supposed to be settled at the end of the year. They formed a group and wanted to go There was a riot in the city hall. Before anyone could reach the city hall, they were beaten back to the construction site by a large group of people armed with sticks. Many people had their hands and feet broken during the fight. From then on, no one was allowed to Dare to go to the city hall to cause trouble. Although occasionally some people go to the city's third construction department in groups to ask for money, they can't see the person in charge at all, so their wages have never been paid.

Brother Sun is even more miserable. Since his salary for the year has not been paid, his family is in urgent need of money, so he can only go to the black blood station to sell blood to send money to his family to support his children, wife, and mother. I just got pregnant on the fifth day of this year After that, Brother Sun hurriedly went out to look for a job.

However, God is so blind. No one thought that in this collapse accident, a steel bar directly penetrated his lungs, causing him to die before he was sent to the hospital.

At this moment, after listening to Shi Laosan's words, Brother Sun's eyelids seemed to be closed a little, but still not completely closed, as if there was still something that he was worried about.

At this time, Liu Qingyu was standing nearby. When he saw the scene happening in front of him, he felt that his soul was completely shocked. He walked over and followed the stretcher and said to Shi Laosan as he walked forward: "I am Lu Mayor Liu Qingyu of Ming City, I heard that the third construction project of the city still owes you one year's wages."

Shi Laosan heard Liu Qingyu's voice, glanced at Liu Qingyu, and suddenly burst into tears: "Mayor Liu, it's really you, Mayor Liu, please help us, we That group of workers worked for the city's third construction project for a whole year last year, but we didn't get a penny of wages. We responded through various channels, but no one ever helped us to solve the problem. Since you took office , we heard that you are on the side of our people. We have always wanted to go to you to report this matter, but we have been too busy and have no time. Brother Sun and I originally planned to wait for this weekend or even take a day off. I also wanted to go find you to report the situation, but I didn’t expect that Brother Sun would... unexpectedly go there suddenly..."

Speaking of this, Shi Laosan, a man in his fifties, started to cry, his voice was extremely sad, and he seemed to be extremely aggrieved.
