The next day.
Saturday.
Zhenshui County, County Party Committee Family Compound.
Early in the morning, Dong Xuebin sat up in bed with a stretch, still a little sleepy. He did not get up right away, instead grabbing a Soft Zhonghua from the table and putting it between his lips. Then he casually turned on the old twenty-nine-inch color television and used the barely functional remote to change channels. He had no idea whether the batteries were dying or the remote was simply too old and its buttons had stopped working properly, but he had to press hard every time he switched channels. It was a real hassle, and the picture was not very clear either. Many channels flickered constantly. Still, after more than two months in Zhenshui County, Dong Xuebin had gradually gotten used to the poverty here. Having a television was already pretty good. Many families in the townships could not even afford one.
One... The Power of Time and Wealth 1394
Two...
Three...
When he switched to the fourth channel, it was Meihe City's Television Station's Morning News.
The first report was about yesterday's major accident in Chenggang County. Unlike yesterday's brief coverage, this report described the circumstances of the accident in detail. It even mentioned that Li Zhixin and the Construction Company's senior executives had been detained. Finally, it announced the cause of the accident: the preliminary investigation showed serious problems with the construction materials. Random inspections found that many materials had failed to meet standards, with numerous issues such as cutting corners and using substandard materials.
Just as expected.
Dong Xuebin shook his head to himself. If he had not caused this incident, those problems might never have come to light.
Those bastards.
They were utterly lawless.
This counted as delivering justice on heaven's behalf, right?
