Chapter 458 Accident suspicion

  In this era, high paraplegia is more painful than death!

  When the family members of the workers received the news and came to Haicheng, the operation was already over.

  The doctor diagnosed that the worker had no possibility of recovery, and he could only lie down for the rest of his life, eating, drinking, and diarrhoea, and being taken care of in bed.

  When the family members heard this, they fainted on the spot!

  Then the next day, the workers’ families raised banners on the construction site and made a fuss—

  When Lan Shu received the news of the worker's accident, it was already three days after the worker's family made a disturbance.

  Originally, the real estate department under the group wanted to solve the matter by itself, but the family members of the workers involved in the accident insisted and demanded sky-high compensation!

   In the end, I had no choice but to report the matter.

  Lan Shu asked the secretary, "How much compensation is the other party asking for?"

   Was told by the secretary, "They said one million! This is crazy about money!"

   Speaking of this matter, the secretary felt that the other party's asking for money was too exaggerated.

  Accidents happened to construction site workers. Since the reform and opening up, private ownership has been allowed, and the construction industry has gradually risen. Many people work as contractors and build houses for others.

  No one wants to have an accident in a place like a construction site.

   But since something happened, there must be compensation.

  According to the previous compensation situation, most of them were lightly injured, a few hundred to a few thousand dollars at most, and 10,000 to 20,000 to 30,000 to 40,000 were enough for those who were seriously injured and lost the ability to work.

  Even if the economic situation has improved in the past few years and the wages of workers have risen, which is higher than before, the compensation should also increase accordingly.

  But based on the other party's work-related injuries, the maximum is 50,000 to 60,000 yuan, so this matter should be over.

  But the family members of the other party asked for one million!

   This is not crazy about money, what else could it be?

  After hearing what the secretary said, Lan Shu also thought about this matter.

   It may be normal for the one million compensation to be placed in later generations.

  But in this day and age, it sounds very problematic!

  So she called the group's logistics department and asked for a car to be sent to Haicheng immediately.

  Ten minutes later, Lan Shu was sitting in the car, and when she was about to leave, she saw Xiao Bai driving a car and parked next to the car she was sitting in.

   "Let's go together." Xiaobai also received the message and learned about it.

  He was worried that his daughter-in-law would go to Haicheng alone, so he temporarily put aside the things at hand and planned to accompany her throughout the journey.

   Lan Shu knew that Xiao Bai was worried about her.

   And she was actually a little wary of Gu Cheng who is now in Haicheng, so Lan Shu nodded, "Get in the car."

  So, originally, Lan Shu went to handle things alone, but it turned out that she and Xiao Bai were together.

   Along the way, the drivers, Master Wang and Xiaobai, drove alternately. That night, the three of them arrived in Haicheng—

  …

  The next day, Lan Shu and Xiao Bai went to the hospital early in the morning to visit the workers involved in the accident.

  At first, they thought they could see the family members of the workers, but when they arrived, they found that the workers were lying on the hospital bed by themselves, and there was no one around them.

  After questioning the nurses at the hospital, the two were told that the workers' family members had not been to the hospital since the first night to check on the situation, and hadn't been here since the morning of the second day.

   Lan Shu can understand the family members' eagerness to find the responsible party to take responsibility after the accident, but no matter how anxious they are, they can't leave no one behind to take care of the injured, right?

  Because the worker in the accident fell asleep under anesthesia, Lan Shu and Xiao Bai could only leave, planning to go to the construction site to see if they could see the worker's family members.

  The driver drove the car to the vicinity of the construction site. The surrounding roads were not easy to walk because of the previous construction, and the two had to get out of the car and walk for a while.

   Before going far, Lan Shu saw the white banner pulled up in front of the gate of the construction site.

  The banner was held by two elderly people in their fifties and sixties, a man and a woman, with a few black words written on it—black heart project, harming people and losing money!

  Beside the two of them, there was a young man in his twenties who looked slightly fat, and he was shouting hard, "The black heart project caused my elder brother to lie in bed and ruin his life. Lose money, lose money!"

   Aside, the leader of the Haicheng branch of the real estate company kept persuading, but the fat young man didn't listen at all!

   "The way my elder brother looks like, he will be served by others in this life, don't think about it if he doesn't have a million!"

  Seeing this, Lan Shu frowned slightly.

  At first, she wanted to go forward and talk to the families of the workers involved in the accident about compensation.

  One million is impossible, within a reasonable price range, she can accept it.

  But now, she found that the other party might not want to demand compensation from them, but deliberately caused trouble?

  Although the other party is a family member of the worker involved in the accident, and I shouldn't think so, the attitudes of these family members seem really abnormal.

   And it remains to be verified whether they are family members.

   Lan Shu didn't believe that the family members would leave their loved ones in the hospital and leave them alone.

  So she took out her mobile phone and called the branch office to ask someone to investigate the family background of the workers involved in the accident and determine whether the identities of these family members were true.

  After hanging up the phone, she and Xiaobai returned to the car, waiting patiently for the result of the news.

   Fortunately, when the worker who had the accident was sent to the hospital, the leader of the branch called the foreman who was leading the workers to ask about the situation.

  So the branch office already has some information about the workers involved in the accident.

  The worker involved in the accident is named Li Shan. He is thirty-six years old this year. He is married and has a ten-year-old daughter.

  Li Shan came out of a remote mountain village to work outside. His parents are still alive and he has a younger brother.

  The family members who made the disturbance were indeed Li Shan’s relatives, but for some unknown reason, Li Shan’s wife and daughter did not come.

  After hearing the news, Lan Shu asked the branch office to immediately send someone to Li Shan's village to pick up his wife.

  As for Li Shan's daughter, considering that the family may not want the children to know these things, they may have concealed them.

  So Lan Shu specifically explained that if Li Shan's wife didn't want her daughter to know that her father had an accident, then when they brought Li Shan's wife here, they had to settle the child first.

  After explaining this, Lan Shu asked Master Wang to drive to the branch first.

  At the same time, she also called the foreman who took Li Shan on the construction site, and the workers who had a close relationship with Li Shan on weekdays, to go to the company for questioning.

  Listening to Lan Shu's arrangements on the phone, Xiao Bai seemed to understand something.

   "Are you suspecting that there is something inside Li Shan's accident?" Xiaobai asked.

   Lan Shu shook her head, "Just in case."

   As she spoke, she breathed a sigh of relief again.

   "It's better if there is no inside information. If there is inside information, then you must not let the criminals just like this!" She said seriously.

  Next, Lan Shu and Xiao Bai met with Li Shan's foreman and fellow workers before noon, and asked about Li Shan's injury before and after.
