137 Witnessed
"Damn it!!"
At the scene of the accident, countless people gathered here to participate in the rescue of the collapsed mine cave, which made Yang Siyu, the supervisor who came to be in charge of the matter, feel bad, and at the same time there was not much other way.
Among the Hongmen and its affiliated forces, there is only one person who can be called a lady and let them be like this, and that is the only wife of Li Tianyang, the leader of the Hongmen, Chen Yumo.
Since Li Tianyang and Chen Yumo got married, although the family life of both parties is inevitably bumpy, as Li Tianyang's first fan sister, Chen Yumo's support for Li Tianyang's work is also an important factor for Hongmen to reach this height.
Moreover, in the Hongmen territory that has been profoundly influenced by Chinese culture, although the idea of three wives and four concubines is not welcomed, it is not without a market, after all, in this era of male superiority and inferiority of women, it is not a big deal for a successful and strong man to marry two or three wives and concubines.
However, in Hongmen, under the influence of Li Tianyang and Chen Yumo and his wife's example, as well as the idea of equality between men and women promoted by Hongmen, etc., the status of women in Dayuan Island and its affiliated territories has been improved, even worse than that of Western women who can be kings.
So far, Li Tianyang, the leader of the Hongmen who has more than one million people under his command and hundreds of thousands of sons under his command, has not had any unruly things with any women outside of work.
Under his influence, most of the members of the Hongmen learned to respect the female friends around them, and at the same time, they all began to respect the monogamous system. At least one-third of the positions in Hongmen are held by women.
At the same time, Chen Yumo herself is also very hard-working, although she does not set foot in the Hongmen power field, but she has prepared and carried out many public welfare actions, helping countless lonely old people, women and children who have no support to stand in Hongmen, eat and clothe warmly.
In the drama club under her leadership, hundreds of different styles of dramas and dramas have been performed, which are deeply loved by the people, and at the same time, they are also imperceptibly enlightening the people's wisdom, so that the people can learn more about self-awareness through these plays.
Chen Yumo, as Li Tianyang's only wife, is also the parent of Li Yun, the parent of Li Tianyang's future successor, who is unanimously recognized by the Hongmen, but she has never been arrogant to others because of her noble status, and her eyebrows are cold, but what she brings to people is more warm greetings and kind eyes.
All these things make Chen Yumo, the first lady of Hongmen, although she has not stepped into politics, she still has a very high influence among Hongmen and its affiliated forces.
As the president of the drama club, as well as the founders of many public welfare groups, Chen Yumo has also not been idle at home over the years, as Li Qiong, Li Yun and other children gradually become adults and go out to experience the society by themselves, Chen Yumo is also encouraged by Li Tianyang, and takes a group of women out to observe the people's feelings, understand the current situation of the people at the bottom, and practice the style.
Anyway, today's ocean journey, with the gradual rise of steamships, has reduced the risk of ocean voyages to a very low level, which is enough to ensure that Chen Yumo and her family have a guarantee when they travel far away.
In other aspects, Chen Yumo and the ladies of the elite class can't enjoy much experience, but in terms of personal safety, they are still very different from ordinary people, like the steamer that is difficult to buy in the eyes of outsiders is the standard for Chen Yumo and her travel.
This time, Chen Yumo and the others had a whim, thinking that while they could still walk around, they would go to see the world farther away, and see the scenery of another land under the Hongmen system, and finally they had this trip to visit the Medan mine.
"Hurry up and clear the field! Clear! ”
"What are so many people doing here, except for the necessary rescuers, what should the rest do!"
Yang Siyu angrily scolded the gathered crowd and drove most of the workers away, while arranging a small number of workers to rescue them, at least not to make the rescue scene look too conspicuous.
"Fortunately, in the collapsed mine, there are no Han people trapped in it, otherwise I would really not be able to ignore it now."
After such a big incident, Yang Siyu was now in a somewhat fortunate mood, silently observing whether there were unfamiliar faces around him, and not forgetting to mutter.
There is no way, with such a large mining volume of Medan gold mine, if there are not a few collapse accidents every month, a supervisor like Yang Siyu will be a little unaccustomed to it.
In this era, most of the mining methods still use crude benzene manual excavation methods, and the deeper the mines, the more they dare not use gunpowder blasting methods on a large scale. Even a rich mine like the Medan Gold Mine, where almost the entire mountain range is a gold mine, will cause dangers such as mountain disintegration due to blasting if you are not careful, so you still rely more on low-cost black slaves and Indian slaves as the main mining force.
Under the influence of Hongmen, the management of black slaves and Indian slaves in the Medan mine has been relatively humane, as long as they work in the mine for 20 years, they can get a free body, and at the same time get a settlement fee, so that these unfortunate slaves have some hope.
In the daily work, the mine basically ensures that the workers have enough rest time, although they have to do more than 12 hours of work every day, but the minimum sleep and rest are still available.
The Luzon Islands' favorable climate and environment made it easy to grow food crops, which ensured that the slaves could eat enough and not starve.
At least compared to the treatment of black slaves by Westerners, the treatment of slaves by the groups under the command of Hongmen is quite good, and even the mines do not prohibit the marriage between miner slaves and female slaves, giving them a little living space so that they can reproduce.
However, as the only place under the Hongmen system that does not prohibit the use of slaves, the high-risk working environment of the mine itself still makes the labor losses here the highest in the entire Hongmen system.
If it weren't for the use of these low-cost slaves as the main labor force, but the use of Han Chinese and drawings as the main mining workers, perhaps the output of the mine today would not only not reach such a scale, but even because of the cost of pensions and other costs, the Nanyang Chamber of Commerce investment merchants and Hongmen would not have made much profit at all.
Therefore, in the eyes of Yang Siyu and other supervisors, as long as there are no Han people or local laborers in the collapsed mine, then it is not a big deal for him, and the loss of dozens of slaves, in his eyes, may not be comparable to the loss of several Han laborers.
It's just that what Yang Siyu didn't know was that when he was urgently dealing with the collapse accident, a team of dozens of people led by Chen Yumo happened to be in an open area above the mine and took this scene into view.
