When Ye Ming heard Su Jinsong mention the names "Ouyang Dan" and "Ouyang Qian", he immediately remembered the three legends Xu Jirong told him about Zhang Jiankun. He knew that Su Jinsong was cautious and kind-hearted, and was unwilling to be
He slandered Zhang Jiankun in front of him, so he said: "I know the rumors about Ouyang Dan, it's okay, just go on and say it!"
Su Jinsong hesitated for a moment and said: "Secretary Ye, many people in the county know the rumors about Ouyang Dan's three sisters, so I won't say more. I'll also tell you about the origin of this lead-zinc mine!"
"Okay, tell me, I still don't know that there are lead and zinc minerals in Beishan County!"
"I once heard my father-in-law say that there is a large lead-zinc vein in the west of Shangmei Mountain. The main mineral deposit is under Jiguan Ridge in Leigong Town. In the 1960s, an exploration team from the Provincial Bureau of Geology and Mineral Resources was in Jiguan Ridge.
Exploration nearby
For more than a year, the lead-zinc ore reserves below have been basically proven. It is said that it reaches more than 500,000 tons, and the ore grade has reached more than 10%, which is of great mining value. However, because there are several underground rivers under Jiguanling, the lead
zinc ore deposit base
Pontu is located under an underground river, and the hydrogeological conditions are very harsh. If large-scale mining is carried out, it will not only damage the underground water resources, but also be very risky. Therefore, although the lead-zinc mines under Jiguanling are abundant, they are not suitable for mining under current technical conditions.
, unable to carry out large-scale mining. Moreover, because the price of lead-zinc ore was not high in the past, and the cost of mining lead-zinc ore in places with complex underground water systems was high, the government has not exploited this huge mineral deposit.
"But starting three years ago, the price of lead-zinc mine suddenly soared, doubling in one year. So Ouyang Zhi used the relationship between his three daughters to apply for a lead-zinc mine "Prospecting License" in the name of
The above is to conduct mineral exploration in an area south of Jiguanling that the geological exploration team has not explored. In fact, they dug a mine from that exploration area.
It was opened to the foot of Jiguanling Mountain and mined from the edge of the mineral deposits that the geological team had explored, and a mineral processing plant was set up to wash and select the raw lead-zinc ore, and then transported it to other places and sold it to smelters, making huge profits.
It is said that Zhenyu Lead-Zinc Mine earned at least 4 to 5 billion in profits during two years of mining, without paying a penny in taxes or other fees to the government."
Ye Ming asked angrily: "For such a big lead-zinc mine, if they don't pay taxes or fees, they must have a justifiable reason. Otherwise, all the leaders and responsible persons of the functional departments will be jailed for dereliction of duty. How can they?"
Are you so brave?"
"There is a reason for this: Ouyang Zhi applied for a "Mining Prospecting License", and the area they were exploring had no mineral deposits at all, so they used the excuse that no mineral deposits were found during the exploration to avoid applying for a business license and tax payment.
Registration certificates and other documents, and no taxes and fees were paid. People in the functional departments all knew about the relationship between Ouyang Dan and the three sisters, so even though they knew that it was illegal for them to not apply for certificates and pay taxes and fees, no one dared to investigate and punish them.
.”
Just as Su Jinsong said this, a loud noise suddenly came from the east of Dishui Village. Ye Ming looked up and saw more than a dozen villagers pouring out of the opposite village, each holding poles, hoes and other equipment in their hands.
They yelled and cursed loudly and hurriedly ran towards Jiguanling. Judging from their angry expressions, they probably had a conflict with someone from Leigong Town, and these dozen villagers were there to reinforce them.
Seeing that the momentum was not right, Ye Ming hurriedly said to Xia Chuchu: "You, Mr. Zhao, and Miss Zhang walk along the river to the mountains, and you can go under the waterfall. There is a deep pool under the cliff.
You must be careful when viewing the waterfall, don't slip and fall into the pool. Lao Su and I will go there to have a look, and we will come back immediately if nothing happens."
After Xia Chuchu nodded in agreement, Ye Ming and Su Jinsong immediately took a shortcut to the northeast along the stream with turbid water flowing across it.
A few minutes later, Ye Ming and Su Jinsong ran to the entrance of the ravine between Jiguan Ridge and Julong Ridge. They saw two groups of people confronting each other on the slope not far away. The group on the east side were all dressed in orange.
Work clothes, wearing orange safety helmet, holding in hand
They were armed with rubber sticks, shovels, shovels and other weapons; the group of people in the west were dressed in various colors, and most of them had their trousers rolled up. There were also several shirtless people, all holding poles, hoes and other equipment in their hands. It looked like they had just returned from the ground.
The villagers came here.
At this time, the two groups of people were arguing loudly, with some pushing and shoving. The whole scene was filled with the smell of gunpowder. As long as someone did something radical, it would definitely lead to a fierce fight...
Ye Ming and Su Jinsong hurriedly accelerated up the slope and stood between the two groups of people.
Su Jinsong has been the deputy mayor of Meishan Town for many years, and his wife She Mengyao’s hometown is from Dishui Village, so most of the villagers know him. When they saw him and a young man standing between two groups of people, one of the villagers pointed
A cement pipe opening for sewage discharge on the right said angrily: "Mayor Su, look at it.
, all this sewage was discharged from the tailings dam of the Zhenyu Lead-Zinc Mine, and all flowed into the Julong River and then into the Huishui Bay, polluting all the water in the bay. Our rice fields are filled with
The water from Huishui Bay was irrigated, and the sewage was poured into the rice fields. All the seedlings died, and there was no early rice harvest this year.
"Yesterday, She Chuchang from East Village took her son to argue with the person in charge of the mine, asking them to compensate for the losses. As a result, Ouyang Zhi's nephew Ouyang Gao led a group of people from the mine protection team and beat She Chuchang and his son to pieces.
, are still being treated at the town health center. We came here today to block the sewage drain, and the mine immediately sent a mine protection team to threaten us.
Whoever dares to block the sewage outlet will have his legs broken. Mayor Su, you are the leader, give us a comment: Their tailings dam is in Leigong Town. Now that the sewage in the dam is full, cement pipes will be erected to go there.
Our sewage discharge in Dishui Village has made our water sources and rice fields dirty and smelly. Should they compensate for the losses? Do we have the right to block this sewage outlet?"
Before Su Jinsong could answer, several more people came down from the east hillside. The first of them was a man with a sturdy build and a sinewy face, who was also wearing an orange off-duty uniform and stood among the group of mine protection team members. He shouted impatiently: "You guys
What are you talking about with these rubbish guys digging the soil for farming?
Don't say anything. As long as anyone dares to block the sewage pipe, rush over and break his dog legs, just like the two mud-legged people who went to the mine to make trouble yesterday. These illiterate and blind people cannot reason with them, they can only use
Use your fists and kicks to talk to them, and if you just break one of their legs, they will be so submissive that they won’t even dare to fart!”
