Chapter Twenty-Four: A Fire Caused by a Great Flood
Zhou Jianhua stared at the car violently and hurried back, wanting to make as many trips as possible before the sky completely darkened. When he was about two or three kilometers away from the Wengong River Ferry Terminal, Zhou Jianhua felt that something was wrong.
This asphalt road is the nearest road transportation line to the county and provincial capital from more than 10 coal mines under the Jiancheng County Mining Bureau. In the past, when these cars waited for the ferry in front of the Wengong River wharf, it was not uncommon for them to line up for hundreds of meters, but today the car queue is one or two kilometers away, and from a distance, the lights of the cars form a long light dragon on the road.
Zhou Jianhua rode all the way to the shore of the wharf only to find that the water of the Wengong River suddenly soared, two or three meters higher than when he came in the morning. Besides, I haven't seen any rain in the past few days!
Zhou Jianhua waited for about 20 minutes before a ferry landed, and it took more than ten minutes for the cars on the ferry to go ashore, and the cars waiting to cross the river on the shore finally filled the parking lane on the ferry, and Zhou Jianhua pushed his bicycle and flocked to the ferry with many passengers who were in a hurry to cross the river.
Zhou Jianhua stood on the side of the boat next to the cockpit, looking at the black and oppressive river outside the boat, the river surface that was originally one or two kilometers wide was no longer distinct in the dark night, and only the thin lights on the opposite bank were reflected on the river surface, allowing people to roughly perceive the distance on the opposite bank. The sound of the diesel engine on the ferry suddenly roared strongly, and the hull of the ship vibrated violently, and the ferry finally started.
A boatman came from the bow of the boat, stood by the escalator in the wheelhouse, lit a cigarette and rested for a while, and immediately someone next to him asked, "Master, why is this water so big?" Will it still go up? ”
"It's definitely going to go up! And that's just the beginning! At this rate, the ferry may have to stop tomorrow and the night after tomorrow. Try to cross the river during the day these days. The master shipwright replied.
"It hasn't rained lately, so why is there such a big water?" Someone asked again.
"We haven't rained yet, but it's been raining heavily for two days in the upper reaches of the Wengong River, and it's estimated that it will take a few more days." The master shipwright replied again.
"Why is it raining heavily in winter...... someone said strangely.
"The weather forecast says it's an El Niño...... "The master boatman finished speaking, dropped his cigarette, turned and went down the escalator into the wheelhouse.
Zhou Jianhua suddenly realized that in his memories of his previous life, he had learned about El Niño events in order to test a remote sensing radar system, El Niño is a global weather anomaly that occurs about once every 7 years, and the El Niño phenomenon that occurred between 1982 and 1983 was the worst in centuries!
When Zhou Jianhua returned home, it was very late, Min Guibao, Zuo Qianghua and Zhong Min were anxiously waiting for him, Zhou Jianhua hurriedly said hello to his mother and said that he had eaten, so he hurriedly went to the motor maintenance room with everyone.
"Why are you coming back so late?!" As soon as Min Guibao came out of Zhou Jianhua's house, he asked half anxiously and half dissatisfied.
"I can't leave if there's something!" Zhou Jianhua replied with a smile.
"Brother Zhong Min came back with two motors today, Zuo Qianghua and I have already dismantled the machine in the afternoon, and the coil didn't dare to move, just waiting for you to come back......" Min Guibao said as he walked.
"Yesterday, the enameled wire of the two motors was also bought, just waiting for you to come back and teach us how to wind the wire." Zuo Qianghua also added.
Zhou Jianhua didn't reply, but his mind was thinking about his own plan.
Seeing that Zhou Jianhua only cared about himself and walked without answering, Min Guibao said tentatively: "Jianhua, do you want to ...... You're not going to go to the coal mines, are you? Running to the coal mine every day, and it's hard, it's not as good as repairing the motor to earn more, how can you come back to do a good deal? ”
"I can't come back for the time being, and the matter over there is also very important!" Zhou Jianhua finally replied: "However, tomorrow I have to take a day off to stay here for a day." ”
"Leave? What is this for? Min Guibao said disapprerovingly: "It's better not to go at all than to ask for leave, you can't get your salary, and you have to deduct bonuses, it's not cost-effective......"
"Alas! This salary bonus is nothing, and the far water can't save the near fire! Zhou Jianhua sighed and replied.
"Firefighting? What fires to fight? Min Guibao and Zuo Qianghua walked on Zhou Jianhua's left and right and asked in surprise.
"The Wengong River is flooding, so I have to come back to put out the fire." Zhou Jianhua replied with a mysterious smile.
"This ......" both of them were confused by the second monk.
"Guibao, tomorrow you can find three or four reliable people to come and repair the motor together, and pay them a salary of five a day." Zhou Jianhua said again.
"For what?! Why do you want so many people, isn't it almost the same with a few of us? With such a high salary, why not leave it to us to earn for ourselves? Min Guibao's eyes widened in confusion and asked in surprise. Five a day, forty-five a month, which is equivalent to twice the income of young workers in the seed farm.
"In the next few days, I estimate that Zhong Min Ge will be able to receive no less than three or four motors a day! So we need to reserve more manpower, otherwise we will miss work. Zhou Jianhua said.
"Three, four?! You mean three, four?! Why? Zhong Min, who had been walking behind the three people, hurriedly walked a few steps in front of Zhou Jianhua and asked.
"The Wengong River is rising, and the whole Jiancheng County may be tense in the next few days, like our situation here, this winter I am afraid that we will have to fight drought while preventing floods. Flood control and drought control are major events, but flood control must be the first, many pump motors used for drainage are probably in a hurry to overhaul these days, those who have been waiting in a long queue for maintenance of drought-fighting motors, maintenance units may not be able to take care of it for the time being. At this time, as long as they know that we can repair it, they will definitely send the machine over crying and shouting and begging us to help repair it. Zhou Jianhua looked at Zhong Min and explained with a smile.
"Oh......" Zhong Min finally understood, and couldn't help but admire in his heart, he didn't expect that this week, Jianhua was young, not only had outstanding skills, but also had such a good business acumen, he was ashamed!
Min Guibao and Zuo Qianghua also secretly admired Zhou Jianhua's open-mindedness and keen thinking, which is called vision! What kind of vision can we sixteen-year-olds have? I really don't know how Zhou Jianhua suddenly became so powerful these days, could it be that his character exploded? ! Compared to him, he is really too tender!
"But...... Why do you have to take a leave of absence when you're looking for so many helpers tomorrow? What a toss! Zuo Qianghua still asked puzzled.
"I came back to put out the fire, not to engage in crowd tactics, but to engage in decapitation tactics." Zhou Jianhua explained: "Director Min Chang approved a loan of 50 yuan for us, and in the past two days, we have connected wires, bought the first batch of enameled wires for two motors, and other maintenance materials and tools such as insulating paint and insulating paper, and it is estimated that it has already cost about 30, right?" ”
"Hmmm! It's already cost 33 bucks. Zuo Qianghua replied that he was responsible for registering these accounts.
"Then, the rest of the money is only enough to buy the maintenance materials for the two motors that came back today, and if Brother Zhong Min comes back tomorrow with a few more, what will we do to repair them?" Zhou Jianhua asked.
"Oh my God! None of us thought of this problem! This is in trouble! Min Guibao exclaimed.
"What can I do?! It's really burning eyebrows! Zuo Qianghua was also anxious.
"I'm taking my leave tomorrow just to come back and put out the fire." Zhou Jianhua said calmly: "From tonight onwards, we will go all out to ensure that all the follow-up procedures for the first motor that Zhong Min Ge picked up are completed, and strive to ship it tomorrow afternoon and recover the maintenance money, so that if we come back tomorrow, we don't have to worry about running out of money to buy maintenance materials the day after tomorrow." It's just that Min Guibao and I are going to stay up all night tonight......"
As he spoke, the four of them entered the maintenance room, turned on the light, Zhou Jianhua saw a wooden winding machine placed on the wall at a glance, Zhou Jianhua walked up and shook it a few times, it felt very stable, and the hinge did not have obvious radial and axial jumping, and he couldn't help but ask happily: "This is a good job!" Who did it? ”
"This is the carpenter who made the sofa next to the elementary school according to the sketch you drew, and the two winding boards are also, three things, and the work and materials cost a total of two yuan and five cents, a little expensive, okay?"
Zhou Jianhua took a closer look at the wood of the winder, and felt that the texture was good, the structure was also very stable, and the quality was really good, so he looked up at Min Guibao with appreciation and nodded and said, "Yes, it's not expensive!" You're going to make another one tomorrow and come back! If you want to do a good job, you must first sharpen your tools, and spending some money on production equipment can improve production efficiency and product quality, which is very worthwhile! ”
"Okay, I'll let him make one more tomorrow!" Min Guibao happily agreed.
"Guibao, I can remind you, you have to hurry up and learn the art of repairing electric motors, I told you two days ago, have you spent some time in this area in the past two days?" Zhou Jianhua asked.
"Oh...... This one...... I've been busy with these things for the past two days, and I haven't bothered about ...... Hehe......" Min Guibao replied, scratching his head embarrassedly.
"We are about to add manpower, we have to have someone to be the master to guide them in their work, now Zuo Qianghua has some knowledge of electricity, and for the time being, he can barely help guide the newcomers together, but when he starts school, how can you get it alone?" Zhou Jianhua unceremoniously continued to question.
"Isn't there still you?" Min Guibao replied with a smile on his face.
"I have other more important things to do, and so do you, learning skills is more important to you now than making money - money is never enough, and if you worry that spending time studying will affect the small amount of money you make, you will never make a lot of money." Zhou Jianhua said seductively.
"That'...... Well, I listen to you, what do you say I'm going to do? Min Guibao asked helplessly.
"From tomorrow onwards, no matter how busy you are, you have to spare at least 2 hours a day to learn the electrical knowledge of junior high school physics, and if you don't understand something, ask Zuo Qianghua or ask me; Today is February 5th, and there is still a week before the Chinese New Year, and you must master all the electrical knowledge of junior high school physics before the year. After the year, I will find some motor maintenance books for you to read, you must be able to learn to repair the motor independently before Zuo Qianghua starts school - if you can't do it, we will have to break up after Zuo Qianghua starts school. Zhou Jianhua threatened half-truthfully.
"Okay then......" Min Guibao agreed helplessly, pouting at Zuo Qianghua, who was pursing his lips and snickering on the side.
"I'm sure you can!" Zhou Jianhua smiled and patted Min Guibao's shoulder and encouraged.
Zhou Jianhua and Min Guibao were busy all night at night, before the coil of the first motor that Zhong Min received was wound and embedded in the stator trunking of the motor.
And Zhong Min No. 6 also went directly to the outside of the state-owned motor maintenance unit in the county to squat, and sure enough, he came back with 5 motors in one day. Fortunately, Min Guibao found a few temporary helpers, led by Zuo Qianghua, and took on most of the time-consuming and labor-intensive maintenance links that did not require high technical requirements.
No. 6 was supposed to be a Sunday, but for any coal mine, there are no Sundays and holidays. Because after the mine is shut down, it is necessary to do a lot of system restoration work such as gas discharge, drainage, and roadway repair, which has a large investment and potential safety hazards, so under normal circumstances, the coal mine cannot be shut down. This is the inherent particularity of coal mines, and Tonglin Coal Mine is no exception. Therefore, Zhou Jianhua went to the switchboard room of the improved seed farm with the assistance of Min Guibao on the morning of the 6th, called Director Chen Guodong in the Tonglin Coal Mine and asked for a day of personal leave, and went to the Tonglin Coal Mine to work normally early in the morning on the 7th.
