Chapter 87 Not Feeling Bad Anymore?
"Did you go to Liuxia Village to find the village chief?"
"I did! I contacted the chiefs of these villages! Jinhai Company even sent a department manager to respond to my interview, and they took me on a tour of the mine and the company."
"How did it turn out?" She looked at Su Ronggui’s face and could tell the situation wasn’t good.
"The result? Everything seemed fine. Sun Yulin’s company had compliant equipment and cutting-edge processes, comprehensive safety measures, and distributed personal protective equipment effectively. They even held weekly meetings for workers to learn about safe production and health knowledge, and the workers had regular health check-ups. The village chiefs expressed their distress over the many cases of pneumoconiosis in the village. Sun Yulin’s brother-in-law said that if Sun Yulin was to blame, he wouldn’t cover it up and would ensure Sun Yulin took responsibility. But Sun Yulin had nothing to do with these patients. He said Sun Yulin only took over three years ago, and these workers had no affiliation with his company; their labor contracts were with a previous company. By the time Sun Yulin took over, these people were already gone, and even those who stayed eventually left. Sun Yulin even offered some compensation out of humanitarian considerations. According to them, Sun Yulin is a good person, Jinhai is a conscientious company, and the workers are just making trouble without reason."
"Are there still workers at the mine?" Wasn’t Liuxia Village already wary of the mine?
"Yes!" He fell silent for a moment. "Quite a few."
"Are they all from nearby villages?"
"Some are from nearby, and some are from outside," Su Ronggui furrowed his brows habitually. "I always feel everything is too perfect and seamless."
"Are you saying it’s too polished, to the point that it feels like they’re covering up something?" Tu Hengsha looked at him sideways.
He didn’t notice the meaning in her eyes and responded with a "hmm."
Tu Hengsha pursed her lips, "You said it yourself, in our line of work, we rely on evidence, not intuition."
He paused, and his gaze gradually changed.
