Live again: the pig who is the outlet

Chapter 47 No.40 The Story of Seven Zhang Chengqian ([-])
It was only later that Meng Qingshan chatted with Cheng Qian and found out that the rural man in their place was the head of the family, and his wife would generally not object to a decision, it wasn't a matter of being afraid or not.

It's just that they have basically such a custom where the man dominates the outside and the woman dominates the inside. The man earns money and gives it to his wife to save for living.

The family needs to spend money and the man can't get it back, and will be scolded by his wife as a waste.

But when men need money outside, women have to take it out quickly.

Moreover, when there are guests at home, women only do the cooking, and usually do not eat together at the table. It was an old custom in the past.

Although I don’t pay much attention to that now, rural women feel uncomfortable sitting on the wine table of a group of gentlemen, so most of the guests come to the house. As long as they don’t bring their female relatives, the host’s wife still eats by herself in the kitchen.

When Cheng Qian took care of him so carefully, it was because of the influence of the elders in the family.

Of course, it is not that there are no families with strong women and weak men. Generally, the men in such families cannot support their appearance outside, and women will come forward to make decisions when they have to. However, such men will be laughed at by people in three miles and five villages.

The bad habit of men beating their wives can be found everywhere. If the couple quarrels, it is normal for a man to pat his wife a few times. Women generally do not resist, and they are wronged when they are wronged.

But if the man beats people indiscriminately without reason, then the woman will be a heroine when she explodes.

emmmmm, for details, refer to the day when Cheng Qian beat up three gangsters to scare them away. With that kind of combat power, I can make up my own brain...

In Cheng Qian's words, their place is at the foot of Taihang Mountain, their ancestors often dealt with wild animals, and the folk customs are relatively tough!

To what extent is it tough? It can be said that it has a bandit spirit.

According to Cheng Qian, after they had more small coal mines, they recruited many workers from other places, although the safety guarantee of small coal mines is much worse than that of state-owned coal mines.

But the wages are high, and many people are still willing to work in those small coal mines.

Meng Qingshan was stunned by the toughness of the folk customs. Here comes the key point.

Those seven or eight-year-old snot-nosed boys who had just sewed their crotch pants on in their locality dared to rob the single workers of those small coal mines for a piece of money!
Tsk!What a snot-nosed baby in his [-]s and [-]s!
Fortunately, those who dare to do that are ignorant kids, and the older ones don't dare to do that. First, being caught is a felony, and the sentence is many years.

Another person who can open a small coal mine in the local area is also a well-known figure in the local area. At least he has a lot of friends. If he robs his workers, he will be beaten in the face, or his legs will be broken.

Speaking of beasts, Cheng Qian said that when she was very young, she could often hear wolves howling at home at night.

Later, private enterprises were allowed, and there were many quarries in the mountains. The noise of bombing and blasting stones day and night scared the wolves away.

However, at night, the villagers are still used to not going out to wander around unless there is something urgent.

On the day his father used the donkey cart to get money home, there was no one walking around in the village between nine and ten o'clock in the evening, and this was the reason.

Earlier, when it was dark, few people walked back and forth in the village.

It is said that in the [-]s, in a village not far from theirs, there was a girl in her teens who encountered a wolf on her way home from her relatives in the village in broad daylight.

Hearing her cry, the villagers ran out with sticks and shovels to beat the wolf away, and the girl survived, but the wolf bit off a large piece of flesh on the girl's face.

At that time, the medical conditions were poor and plastic surgery was not possible.

The girl spent the rest of her life covering half of her face with one hand, because a large piece of flesh was missing on that side, and her big teeth were exposed.

Let's talk about Cheng Qian's family.

Ever since his father Cheng Liansheng made a lot of money from opening a coal mine, the family has become richer.

So I entrusted someone to buy a house in the mining area where the housing reform had just started. At that time, it was said that it was a housing reform, but in fact, the unit also posted a lot of money.

I bought an 5000-square-meter house on the fifth floor for more than [-] yuan.

Are you surprised?

Yes, that was the price at that time. This is because his family’s non-mine employees paid more than 1000 more, and the mine employees bought it in their early [-].

But at that time, not many people could come up with 4000 yuan, and more than half of them had to borrow money from their families to get together the money to buy a house.

At that time, most of the houses were bungalows, and there was a building that was 80 to [-] square meters like a pigeon cage. The [-]-square-meter building that her family bought was said to be designed by foreign countries, which was awesome at the time. .

Cheng Qian was also transferred to a school in the mine by his father's help. Naturally, if she was rich, she couldn't let her daughter go to school in the village. It wasn't to show off her wealth, not to mention the quality of teaching in the village school.

The family moved into the city, asked someone to spend money to transfer their daughter to another school, and bought a car. Cheng Liansheng can be said to be proud of himself.

Cheng Qian also became rich because of her family, and her clothes and shoes became fashionable and expensive. Every girl in the school counted as one, and almost none of them could wear the same style of clothes as her.

Because he bought all his clothes in the provincial capital, even in the capital city.

It's a pity that his father drifted away after he got the money.

It's not the kind of floating around when you have money and don't care about your family.

Cheng Liansheng bought his own small car and building, and he still had a deposit of nearly one million in his hand. He became overwhelmed and wanted to build a small coal mine by himself.

The reason is simple. The small coal mine they partnered with has little reserves and will be exhausted soon.

He urgently needs to build another small coal mine to prevent his snowballing deposits from stagnating.

He said he was floating because he felt that the first small coal mine cost less than 50 yuan to dig coal, and now he has millions of deposits in his hands, plus more than a year of mining experience.

Even if I am unlucky, I spent twice as much as last time, and my own money is enough for 100 million out of coal.

It's a pity that he didn't think about it, even if he went to an expert to read it, he couldn't guarantee that the package was [-]% correct.

Even if there is a real coal seam under the exploration, the coal seam abandoned by the local mining bureau must have very small reserves. If you choose the position of the wellhead a little bit, you may miss the coal seam.

Moreover, he insisted on doing it alone, and he didn't even think about continuing to find a partner to share the risk.

As a result, well drilling started in the spring of 100, and three or four months passed, and the [-] million yuan in his hand was spent without coal.

Having already invested 100 million, Cheng Liansheng was definitely not willing to admit defeat, so he sold the shares in his first small coal mine.

Because the small coal mine produced less and less coal, and he was in a hurry to spend money, so he only sold 50 of his shares.

As a result, 50 yuan was gone in less than two months, and there was still no sign of coal.

Then Cheng Liansheng started to borrow money frantically, ran around the bank for loans, and finally got another 100 million.

And then no more!

The failure of the second mine made him not only lose all the money he had earned, but also sold the shares in the original small mine, and owed millions of dollars to banks and individuals.

Cheng Qian's father couldn't bear the blow. One night, he invited his friends and creditors to his home.

Set up a table of wine, kept saying sorry to the creditor, told my friends that I might not be able to turn over this time, and asked them to take care of my wife and children when they can help in the future.

After sending all the guests away, Cheng Qian's mother, Ma Guihua, waited for a long time and did not see Cheng Liansheng going upstairs, thinking that he was in a bad mood and dragging his friends down to talk drunk, so she didn't pay much attention.

In the end, after waiting for almost two hours, I still didn't see my man going upstairs to go home. I finally felt that something was wrong and was about to go downstairs to find him when I heard a loud "bang" downstairs.

Then I heard the neighbor who came out to check and shouted in panic: "It's not good, someone jumped off the building!"

Ma Guihua only felt a buzzing in her head, and hurried downstairs to check, and saw that the person lying in a pool of blood was really her man, Cheng Liansheng, who had already vented more than breathed in.

Just now he had a premonition that Cheng Liansheng might be the one who jumped off the building. When he ran downstairs in a panic, he lost one of his shoes and was out of breath.

Shocked by her man's miserable state again, Ma Guihua didn't get up in one breath and fell straight down.

Seeing Ma Guihua running, the neighbors who had already recognized who jumped from the building were already prepared. Before Ma Guihua fell to the ground, the people around her hurriedly supported her, pinching her and shooting her behind. back.

Although Ma Guirong was rescued before the ambulance arrived.

But she was already frightened by this sudden change, she was so frightened that her eyes were blank, she stood there motionless like a fool and didn't speak.
