Chapter 388, Arrive at the mining area (2).(1/2)
The car continued driving for half an hour, turned at the intersection, and came to a river crossing.
Only a few hundred meters ahead, some lights could be vaguely seen.
The vehicle moved slowly forward.
And Akun set the car lights to a special frequency.
This time no one stopped me, and the car stopped in front of a building complex.
There was a row of armed men at the door.
After Chen Dagang got out of the car, he chatted with the other party for a while, and then the car continued to start slowly.
The car came to an open place and stopped.
"Okay, everyone, come down."
At this time, the mouse stretched out his head to look, and then said to everyone: "Okay, everyone, go down."
After saying that, he took the lead and got out of the car.
Zhou Xiaochuan followed the crowd. After getting out of the car, he took a look and found that this seemed to be a village.
There is a large open space in the middle of the village.
The car is parked on the right side of the open space, next to four wooden houses. The houses are very long.
There are other vehicles on the opposite side of the square, including trucks, jeeps, and even some armored vehicles.
But these cars are parked at the door of the house opposite.
The house opposite is obviously much better and more refined than the one here. It should be where the soldiers live.
It looks a bit like the wooden villages of the ethnic minorities in Yun Province.
There are ones on one level and some on two levels, but they all have the same feature, they are all made of wood.
There are also some wooden lookout towers around, and people are lying on them.
You must have heard some noise, and two people came out of several houses.
When I saw Chen Dagang, I greeted him happily.
"Brother Gang!"
"Rat!"
…
Chen Dagang smiled and said a few words to a few people.
At this time, Zhou Xiaochuan's attention was attracted by the things in the middle of the square. He saw large and small stones piled on the ground.
Zhou Xiaochuan scanned the nearby stones with his mind, and then a strange color appeared in his eyes.
Because he could actually see the inside of these jade stones.
I thought that I was already here and there was no need to follow me anymore. The old pit of Pagan was not talking about a pit, but a mining area.
There are several river mining and collection points.
Just go out and collect it yourself.
"Okay, A Biao, you take them there. I'll go find the teacher."
Chen Dagang's words interrupted his thoughts.
"Okay, go ahead."
A Biao nodded after hearing this, then waved to Zhou Xiaochuan and others, and led them towards the house in front of the door.
Everyone followed him into the room.
There isn't much inside, just two rows of wooden datong shops on the left and right.
There is an independent small room next to it, which is also a full-length shop.
There are just a few more things in the small room, including quilts, clothes, tables and wardrobes.
At this time, there were forty or fifty people sleeping on the bunk.
Because of the hot weather, the smell of sweat and feet mixed together in the room, making it very unpleasant.
At this time, one of the people who was with Mouse stood up. He was probably in his thirties, close to forty.
He has a Chinese character face, a high nose bridge, and short hair.
It's just that his body and hands are very dark.
Looks very energetic.
"My name is A Biao. We will live together for a long time in the future. I hope we can get along happily in the future. You
Let's go find an unoccupied bed and go to sleep quickly, we have to work tomorrow."
"There is no food now, we won't have it until tomorrow morning."
At this time, the people on the two rows of big beds were looking at Zhou Xiaochuan and the others curiously.
These people all looked haggard.
It looks like he is malnourished.
Seeing that everyone was motionless, A Biao shouted again, "What's wrong? Don't you understand?"
After hearing this, everyone went to find their own beds.
Zhou Xiaochuan walked straight to an empty bed.
In fact, it is said that it is an empty bed, but the space between the two sleeping is larger. After all, there are only two large bunks in total.
When Zhou Xiaochuan came to the place, there was a straw mat on it.
Everyone was shirtless and wearing big underpants while sleeping.
The reason why he came to this place was because the other party just muttered something.
"It's almost a war and you still come here. What a fool."
It's rare to meet someone you can understand and feel a natural sense of closeness to.
Sleeping on the left is a young man in his mid-twenties, thin and with dirty and messy hair. It was he who spoke just now.
And sleeping on the right was a middle-aged man of about thirty years old.
At this time, the middle-aged man had closed his eyes and continued to sleep.
Zhou Xiaochuan smiled at the young man and climbed onto the bunk without taking off his clothes.
The other party saw a man who was about the same age as him coming over, and he didn't look like he was someone who rarely talked about his ethnicity. Communication shouldn't be a problem. He also looked interested.
"My name is Xiaohu, what's your brother's name, and where do you come from?" The other person opened his mouth and realized he was either from Sichuan Province or from Hunan Province.
"Zhang Xiaoming. From Huizhou." This is the fake name on Zhou Xiaochuan's ID.
The other party heard the words and let out a soft ooh.
At this time, Mouse was talking to A Biao and the others.
The mouse opened his mouth and asked, "What's going on?"
"Oh, we had some conflicts with Bakun and fought a few battles. It seems a little serious recently."
"It's only been less than half a month, how come the situation has developed to this point?"
"I don't know. I heard that people from Old M sold some equipment to Ba Kun, and the other party is now a little inflated."
"Will there be a fight?"
"I don't know. It's not like you don't know the situation here."
The mouse was also silent when he heard this.
And here Zhou Xiaochuan also started chatting with the other party.
Zhou Xiaochuan asked, "When did you come here?"
"Oh, in 1961, there was really no food at home, so I ran out. I came here in 1963."
Zhou Xiaochuan was silent for a while after hearing this.
There were a lot of people fleeing in those years, and many of them went abroad.
After saying this, he asked strangely, "You have been here for so long. Why don't you go back? Are you not allowed to go back?"
In his opinion, these people were all deceived.
How is it possible to go back?
"Yes, I go to Teng* City every year to send money to my family." After saying this, he felt helpless for a while, "What are you going to do when you go back? Farming? It's a bit harder here, but you still have 5.5 cents a day.
Where’s the wages?”
Zhou Xiaochuan was surprised when he heard this. He really had a salary and could he still go out?
To be continued...
