The scavengers used metal detectors and were nearly a meter away from the bicycle, and the metal detectors issued a siren.
The citizens were familiar with the image of the scavengers. They wore a woven bag and held an iron bar to seek out the work site. However, this group of scavengers is different from the others. They have shotguns and even spent thousands of dollars on the "mine detector."
Yesterday morning, Mr. Chen went through the construction site under the Luling Road Railway Bridge and saw five or six men and women. The same thing as a mine detector, like the engineering soldiers on the TV, facing the ground, walking back and forth to “explorationâ€, and sometimes also Take out the shovel to grind the ground. Strange behavior caused people to watch.
When the reporter arrived, only two men and two women remained at the scene. These people are professional scavengers. The "detection device" they use is called a metal detector. If the underground is buried with metal, the detector will send a signal. One of them also gave a live demonstration to the reporter. The detector disc immediately sounded a “beep†sound to the back seat of a bicycle that was nearly 1 meter away.
It is understood that this kind of detector was bought by his hometown in Guizhou for more than 1,000 yuan and was able to detect the metal in the depth of one to two meters. They usually wander around the construction sites in Xiamen. If they are left unattended, they step forward to “exploration†and have good luck. One day they can even “hundred†hundreds of tons of scrap iron.
A "female engineering soldier" said that there are hundreds of people from their hometowns that have collected iron scrap in Xiamen. Now, there are basically detectors for doing this, so that not only the metal on the ground but also the metal buried in the ground can be found.

Are the scavengers really able to take away the metal objects buried under the ground? If they are dangerous goods (such as artillery shells, chemical objects, etc.), who will bear the harmful consequences?
With these questions, the reporter interviewed Lin Shikun, a lawyer of Fujian Qinxian Law Firm. He believes that if these items are not to be discarded from the construction site and the demolition site, the metal objects are non-substances, and those who collect scrap iron can take them away. Conversely, if the owner of the metal object does not expressly or impliedly deny such items, the person who collects the iron scrap has no right to take away other people's items.
Regarding the problem of dangerous goods and personal safety buried in the ground, if the land user, construction site builder or the demolition party knows underground to bury bombs and other dangerous goods without any precautions or reminders, the person who collects or scraps the iron and the above-mentioned persons Should bear some responsibility. If the land user, construction site constructor or demolitioner does not know that there are dangerous goods underground and accidents result in injury to the scavengers themselves or third parties, the scavengers shall bear all responsibilities.
