Yan Hu sighed again
Chen Jun is a novice. He doesn't quite understand what it means to decide life and death with one shot. He knows very well. In this case, Chen Jun is basically impossible to dig out good coal. But let him try it or not. How can he give up if he doesn't try it!
Not only Chen Jun, but also Xu manling can guess that the situation is not good when she sees the heavy faces of these men. So he came to Chen Jun and asked him what was the matter?
"Not so good! It's possible that this worthless peat is all over the ground. I'm going to lose money this time. " Chen Jun replied.
Xu manling's face was full of disbelief. After a long period of stupidity, she said to Chen Jun, "this is just the beginning! Why don't you try digging down? Or can we change our position and blow up another pit? "
Chen Jun nodded: "well, that's what I plan to do."
…………
So, under the leadership of Chen Jun, the miners began to re select the location. Two or three hours later, it was almost noon, and finally a place with more stones was selected for blasting. At this time, in addition to Yan Hu and Yi Qiubai, most of the guests who came to visit have gone back to dinner.
Although no one said it, they basically understood that the mine was going blind.
Yan Hu said to Chen Jun, "if you can't get something out this time, just wait. I'll help you find a place."
"Well, success or failure depends on this! Brothers, point the lead and blow it up
Because there are a lot of broken stones here, it is easy to splash and hurt people when it explodes. So the lead was pulled very long, and everyone hid behind a huge stone far away. At the command of Chen Jun, someone lit the fuse.
After the deafening sound of blasting, the smoke dispersed, and everyone eagerly gathered around the mine to watch the results.
... the disappointing result is that the dark brown peat is still at the bottom of the mine.
Even the workers said to Chen Jun, "come on, boss, we've tried our best. It seems that there are no good mines in this place."
Chen Jun, Yan Hu and Yi Qiubai were silent. Xu manling was a little flustered. She came to Chen Jun, looked him in the eyes and said, "what should I do? Or try blasting again? "
Without waiting for Chen Jun to reply, the miners retorted: "Madame, you don't know what to do. All of us have been absent from work for several years and have experience. We have encountered this kind of peat vein before. Usually, once we see this thing, we can't dig out good coal within a few miles. Forget it
Xu manling's face suddenly darkened
Chen Jun suddenly said: "good! That's it! Hard work, brothers. I'll settle today's salary in a moment. I'll have a lot of money. It's very likely that I'll open another mine next time, and I'll invite you back then. "
When Chen Jun said this, the miners were immediately gratified. Originally, I was worried that the boss would not be able to get paid after losing money!
Chen Jun was not mean because he lost money. Instead, he immediately settled today's wages for the workers. There was no less than more. The workers took the money and left together.
"Brother tiger, brother Qiubai, you've worked hard today. It's time to go back! I can't catch up at noon. In the evening, I'll treat you to dinner. "
After Chen Jun said this, Yan Hu said, "OK, I'll go back to the mine first. I'm a little busy there. If you need any help here, I'll be on call. "
Chen Jun patted Yan Hu on the shoulder to show his gratitude, and then Yan Hu also left.
"Brother Qiu Bai and brother man Cang, you can all go back and drive back the car that brother Hu sent. Xiao Ling, you can come back with me. It's noon. I'll go home and cook some food. "
Xu manling bit her lip and asked him, "what about you?"
Chen Jun gave a faint smile: "of course, I'll stay a little longer and have a look at this place. At least it cost 500000 yuan to contract. Even if we can't dig out the mine, we can think of a way to see if we can use it as a place for storing finished coal or planting trees. It's better than idleness. "
Xu manling: "you, if you don't go, I won't go either. I want to stay here with you for a while."
Man Cang said, "Hey! Then we can't leave at all. Anyway, it's just a few of us. We're not afraid of shame. We're also idle. Just dig down and have a look. In case the peat has only a shallow layer, there will be anthracite under it! "
... man Cang said that, Yi Qiubai and Chen Jun were a little moved.
Yeah, I'll stay here anyway. I might as well try again. Dig down. If you can't dig out anything by nightfall, you'll be dead hearted.
So Chen Jun said to Xu manling, "well, man Cang can drive. You can drive back to town and get some food and drink. We'll start work here."
Man Cang agreed and took the key.
Then, Chen Jun and Shi Lei Yi Qiu Bai, they shovel and pick up the holes in the blast, and continue to dig down. Although Xu manling can't do much work as a woman, she can also help by carrying tea and water.
Shi Lei is strong and vigorous. He is very quick to do this kind of physical work. Chen Jun is not to mention a fast worker. Although there were few of them, the progress was very fast, and soon they went down a meter or two
Although it was still peat that was dug out, it was strange that none of them was disheartened. On the contrary, they talked and laughed.
Yi Qiubai joked with Shi Lei: "Leizi, make a bet! Guess if we can dig out anthracite one meter further down? I bet I can dig it out. I bet a hundred dollars! "
Shi Lei glared at him: "I won't bet with you! It's not stupid. There must be something good below. Why do you lose 100 yuan in vain? "
Chen Jun was amused by the two people's singing together... However, until dark, there was no harvest except for more moisture and even dripping peat. Peat or peat!
Now no one can laugh
"Come on, don't dig! Brothers, hard work! Brother man Cang, you can drive us back and find a better place in the town. It's my treat tonight. " Chen junshuang said to the crowd quickly.
Although a little unwilling, but Mancang several people have given up hope. So Yi Qiubai asked, "what about you?"
Chen Jun: "Xiao Ling and I are going to pack up our things, and then we will arrive."
"Well, as soon as you can, we'll go back and take a bath, and then we'll wait for you in the restaurant."
"See you later!"
Man Cang, Yi Qiubai and others all went back, leaving Chen Jun and Xu manling at the scene.
It's getting dark and there's a cool wind in the mountains. Xu manling's delicate body was shivering in the cold wind.
"It's getting cold. Go to the car and wait for me. I'll pick up my horse and drive." Chen Jun said to Xu manling.
However, Xu manling said, "I'm ok. I'll help you clean up. I'll go with you later."
Chen Jun did not utter a word again, and began to clean up tools such as shovel on the spot. However, at this time, Xu manling suddenly felt nervous and said to Chen Jun: "anyway, when they go back to take a bath, they go to the restaurant to order food. It's time for them to wait for the food to be served. It'll take about an hour, or shall we try again? If you dig down, you can dig as much as you can. An hour later, no matter what
Chen Jun couldn't help laughing: "ha ha! I can see that you are also a gambler! It's too much of a gamble. OK, in that case, you can be satisfied. It's just us. Another half an hour. If you can't see anything good in half an hour, go back immediately. "
Xu manling: "good! If you dig down, I'll carry the soil out for you... "
Ten minutes, twenty minutes went by
Half an hour has passed... However, Xu manling hasn't mentioned going home yet.
At this time, Chen jungao raised his pick and fell heavily. With a sound of "Ding", it seemed that he hit something hard! The shock made his hands numb!
The sound was so clear that it didn't feel like he had dug into a stone. Instead, it was like some metal
