Beidiao Workplace Illustrated Book

Chapter 244 Summer 2020 (16)

After returning from the power bureau, Chen Mo was still waiting, waiting for the intermediary to pass the message back and forth. Now he was uneasy in his heart, not knowing what the final opinion of the bureau was, and his trump card, his hole cards seemed to be used up.All he can do now is wait, and only wait.

But this waiting is not passive, because he knows that during the October [-] holiday, the provincial inspection team will come to supervise the work of the county's electric power. Give him an accurate answer before October [-]st.He would contact the family members of the people who died of electrocution before, and block the entrance of the power bureau to meet the provincial inspection team.

He must have a result this time. If the County Electric Power Bureau does not give a result, he will fight them to the end.

It wasn't until the last day of September that the middleman passed on the message, telling Chen Mo to stop making trouble and stop making troubles.The director has already let go, and the director said that he will give Chen Mo a satisfactory answer.After the holiday on October 9 is over, and after the inspection team leaves, the power bureau will take the initiative to negotiate with Chen Mo for compensation.

Things finally came to an end.

For Chen Mo, this October 1st holiday has been extremely long. He is always waiting for news, waiting for the message from the middleman. This is such a torment for him, every minute, every second is a torment.He asked himself in his heart, Chen Mo, at the age of 28, why do you have to go through this torment? Before the age of 28, your previous experience was generally flat, but now, why do you have to go through this hurdle?

He was also a little uneasy in his heart, because he was afraid that the bureau would just perfunctory him, and after the inspection team left, the county would suddenly deny it.But considering that the middleman is a person of prestige, and the middleman once held an important position in the county, even if the county does not admit to Chen Mo, it cannot deny this middleman.

Wait, only wait, waiting is the only thing Chen Mo can do now.

On the National Day of October 2st, several members of the Chen family got married. One was Chen Mo's younger brother, one was Chen Mo's nephew, and the other was Chen Mo's uncle and sister. Chen Mo went to help. The people working here have heard the wind, and the director said: [-] yuan in compensation.

But the intermediary can talk, and the intermediary is also a member of the Chen family. The intermediary refused on the spot: 2 is not acceptable, absolutely not.

Everyone estimated that it was only 3 yuan. Let Chen Mo be mentally prepared to accept it as soon as it is good, and also give the middleman a face. Don't make things so that there is no room for maneuver. Chen Mo nodded in agreement.

After the National Day holiday, Chen Mo still didn't go back to BJ to go to work. He was still waiting, waiting for the last negotiation with the Electric Power Bureau, waiting for the compensation from the Electric Power Bureau.

Under the mediation of the intermediary, the two parties reached a settlement, with a compensation of 3 yuan, and Chen Mo had to delete the article he published on the Internet before, and write a letter of guarantee, guaranteeing that this matter will not be pursued in any way, and he will not make any comments through any media .

It took two full months from the time my father was electrocuted to the time when the two parties reached a settlement.

In the end, the power bureau sent a deputy director and a director in charge to the village with 3 yuan in cash. Witnessed by the middleman and the village party secretary Chen Guozhang, the power bureau handed over the 3 yuan in cash to Chen Mo, and Chen Mo followed suit. He took out a pen and paper, wrote a letter of guarantee and handed it to the Electric Power Bureau.This matter is finally over.

Holding 3 yuan in cash, Chen Mo felt happy and happy.He has endured these two months of torment, a torment he has never experienced in body and mind.In addition to suffering, he also endured anxiety, loneliness, and even threats and pressure from different aspects. He has endured too many things. And now, it is finally a victory.

From then on, people in the family and in the village will look at him highly, thinking that Chen Mo is a capable person, that Chen Mo is a person with a background, and no one can figure out what Chen Mo is doing in BJ. He was able to mobilize the newspaper office to send a letter, and he was able to make possible the seemingly impossible compensation.One of his articles can be exchanged for 3 yuan in compensation, and there was a lot of discussion in the village, thinking that they took Chen Mo too simply.

But Chen Mo felt extremely sad in his heart. For 3 yuan, his father's life is worth 3 yuan. Why is his life so cheap? But who can blame it?If it were someone else, without Chen Mo's troubles, without the contacts of these newspapers, and without Chen Mo's ability to post articles on the Internet to attract the attention and sensation of the county, he would not even get the 3 yuan.

Because Chen Mo conducted investigations during this period, there were several incidents of villagers being electrocuted and killed in the past three years.These are all clear-cut things, and they are all things that Chen Mo has determined through various means.

Compared with those people, Father Chen's compensation is the only one given so much, Chen Mo should be content.He has saved face and received high compensation, he has done a good job, he has received enough.

But is father's life really worth 3 yuan? Does 3 yuan define the father's life?
The matter finally came to an end, and Chen Mo had to go back to BJ. Many projects in JDZ now need him, his team needs him, he must return to his job as soon as possible, he decided to return to BJ tomorrow, and then fly to JDZ.

Before leaving, Chen Mo went to his father's cemetery alone. He lit two cigarettes, put one on his father's grave, smoked another one himself, and began to burn paper money for his father.

He doesn't want to cry anymore, he doesn't want to cry anymore, he wants to report to his father what happened in the past two months, and have a good talk with his father, "Dad, your affairs are all over, it's already mid-October now, It’s time for me to go back to work, and I’ll be back in BJ tomorrow. I’ve sold a lot of sheep at home. I saw my mother secretly shed tears several times because of the sale of sheep. She felt sorry for selling your beloved sheep. She said I am a prodigal son, and I have ruined all your family business. Dad, don’t blame your mother, she is a woman after all, she can’t get so many sheep, and now there are sixty or seventy sheep, she can now alone The sheep are well cared for."

"Dad, the Electric Power Bureau ended up paying 3 yuan for your matter. Do you think this is a lot of money? If you learn that someone died after being electrocuted and didn't get a penny of compensation, after learning the ins and outs of the whole thing , Knowing that I have gone through so many troubles and ups and downs after running around for this matter, looking for someone to rely on, you will definitely say, quite a lot, quite a lot.”

"Dad, you are very happy to get the money. It means that you didn't die in vain. Do you know why people compensate our family? It's not because of the article your son wrote. Dad, when you were alive , unknown, always low-key. After you died, but because of my article, the city was full of storms. Now you are a celebrity in the county. You didn’t expect you to be famous in such a way. If you are still alive, you should Criticize me for being too high-profile and too ostentatious. Alas, Dad, I have been forced to nowhere, and I am about to collapse. Dad, please forgive me for being too high-profile and ostentatious this time. "

"Dad, look, isn't your son very powerful? He didn't embarrass you. Your son is not a coward. Now no one dares to look down on us. Dad, your son has given you credit, and now everyone has to look up to you My son glanced at me, and they dare not talk to me anymore." Chen Mo said, tears streaming down again, and he began to cry loudly: "Dad, I am so wronged, Dad, I just feel wronged , I feel aggrieved in my heart, and my heart is uncomfortable, Dad, I miss you, I miss you so much, if you miss me too, please give me a dream."

After the parting of life and death, the sudden death of a loved one, the torment of many nights and days in the heart, the fickleness of the world, and many helplessness. Chen Mo, 28, seems to have grown up overnight.

But his father's departure didn't knock him down, on the contrary, he became stronger inside.Compared with the love for children, the joys and sorrows, and the changes in the workplace that he experienced before.Only then did he realize that apart from life and death, everything else in life is nothing but scratches.
