Chapter 193: The Mine

The Oriental Port Quarry is located six kilometers south-west of the Oriental Port, close to the Glorious Ridge oil production point, which is the only limestone mountain in the entire Oriental Port that has been proven and confirmed, the mountain is about 200 meters high, covered with vegetation and shallow soil layer, and is a fairly excellent limestone mine. net

It is also the supply point of limestone for the whole Port of Vostochny, limestone is very versatile, not only can be directly processed into stone, but also can be fired into quicklime, but the main customer of limestone in Port Orient is the Port of the East Cement Plant. The cement plant uses limestone and clay to be crushed, batched, and ground to make raw meal, and then fed into the cement kiln to calcine the mature material, and then the clinker is added to the appropriate amount of gypsum to grind finely.

With the massive use of cement in Dongfang Port, the heavy industry sector has invested a lot of money and raw materials to establish multiple groups of cement production kilns, even so, it still can't resist the huge demand for cement in Dongfang Port, not to mention that there are more indigenous people seeking channels to buy cement from Dongfang Port.

Naturally, there is only one solution to the shortage of supply, which is to continue to increase production lines and increase output. While the heavy industry sector produces supporting cement production equipment, the demand for limestone mines has also increased significantly.

The transportation department is now using the manpower assigned by the human resources department to lay a railway from the mine to the unloading yard of the cement plant, hoping to use the rail to directly transport a large amount of ore after it is put into operation, so as to improve the transportation efficiency, and under such conditions, the mining of limestone mines has also changed from the previous ten hours a day to start at dawn and rest after dark.

Shen Bin was sitting in a police car, heading towards the limestone mine, and behind him were three police cars of the same size, all of which were covered with canvas at the moment, leaving only the windows, which were directly inlaid with glass to ensure that the wind would not blow directly into the faces of the occupants in the cars. However, the sealing effect of such a vehicle is very bad, the canvas is often worn out by the opening and closing of the door, and because the weight of the car body is required to be lightweight, so the door itself is also ventilated everywhere, and now it can only be said that it is better than nothing. The police officers in the car rubbed their hands together one by one and put their feet on the driving pedal, so that the vehicle continued to drive on the road.

However, the road was not in good condition at the moment, and such a road was built according to the standard of the standard senate road, and the road was made of compacted earth pavement, and the layers were paved with a layer of gravel. After the completion of the construction of a long time continuous operation without adequate maintenance, plus rainy days will not stop transportation, heavy wheels crushed the road surface caused serious damage to the road at the moment, the ground is full of deep pits, limestone gravel and powder due to the road bumps scattered everywhere along the way, a lot of road gravel has been completely gone, leaving only a large mud pit.

The police car was originally designed to have rear two-wheel drive, and there is not too much suspension system, resulting in the rear wheels often hanging in the air on such a complex road, and the wooden body is easy to be damaged.

Today is the Spring Festival of 1630, and according to the requirements of the Senate, all departments except the police, fire and military departments are on holiday for three days, but this does not include the quarry of Port Orient at this moment, because the people working in the quarry are not all naturalized people, and even the people who are naturalized people are all guilty, and they need to use their own labor to clear their crimes.

Shen Bin knew that there were many complainants among the policemen who came with him today, and no one wanted to be far away from their homes on this festive day of family reunion, and he asked so many policemen to follow him to drive along such a bad road to this quarry, and he could think with his feet how the policemen below would complain.

"What the hell, it's the Spring Festival today!" "Yes, everyone is off for the Spring Festival, and we will continue to work as usual." "What is this? We don't have a rest on holidays, we can only take turns off, and the salary we get is not much higher than that of ordinary people. "We're working with our heads up!" "That's right, it's so far away from the city on this cold day, and the road is still so bad when you run to this wilderness." "yes, such a big pit, how did these people run on this road?"

While the group of policemen were chatting indignantly in the car, a huge truck was slowly approaching in the distance. The wagon's carriage is made of railings, two meters high, with a large diameter of wheels, and two oxen in front of the wagon, while the driver looks nervously at the road, carefully driving the oxen to avoid the deep potholes on the road. The wagons were visibly full of mined ore, and the wheels drove through the potholes of the road, and the ore piled high in the wagons would fall to the road from time to time due to the bumps in the car.

Several police cars hurriedly pulled over to the side of the road and waited for the truck to drive first. The police officers in the car all looked at the driver. The coachman looked helpless, his overalls were covered with a thick layer of rock powder, and his face and hair could not be seen. Seeing the police car pull over, he hurriedly nodded to the police car, shouted, and drove the ox over quickly, so as not to block the police car.

"It's good that I don't work in the transportation department, but if I work in the transportation department, I would be driving a big car every day." "They don't have to rest today!" "How can they have a break? Now the cement plant needs a lot of ore. Besides, today is a holiday, and if you work overtime, your salary will be tripled! "That's right, my second uncle in the cement factory said that at least 30 tons of ore are needed every day, and it can't be run at full capacity, otherwise it won't even be able to open in the afternoon and will have to stop working."

"Wouldn't it be better to stop work early?" "You know an eggplant, take an early break and leave work early, and if you leave work early, you will have less work hours, so the salary will be much less." Several policemen were chatting in the car, and when they saw that the car in front of them had begun to start again, they also drove forward.

"Hurry up, you guys are the sixth car today, good job!" The person in charge of counting held a bamboo slice in his hand, distributed one to each of the people in the cart, and then waved his hand and said, "You can already eat steamed buns today, if you want to eat better, you have to continue to work hard!" ”

The people in the cart took the pieces of bamboo that were used to count them, and carefully placed them in the only pocket of their trousers, which already had several pieces of bamboo, which were now crackling as they were walking. These people were sweating profusely, and their faces were covered with a thick layer of powder from the shattering of stones, and their faces were washed with sweat. They weren't wearing much of any clothing either, most of them were wearing a tank top or jumper, and underneath were torn trousers — most of them looked like old-world cropped pants, and some were worn out from the knees to look like beach pants. Everyone had no shoes on their feet, and they were all walking around in the mud barefoot, and although it had not snowed in the winter in Annam, the temperature was still quite low.

But not many people are thinking about their welfare, because they are criminals serving prison sentences, and this is one of the camps in the labor camps, the mine camps.

The men in charge of the counts were the correctional officers of the labor camps, who carried only a bamboo strip that could be used to beat disobedient prisoners, and they were not equipped with lethal weapons, whether pistols, rifles or daggers. You must know that if the criminals want to cause chaos, they will definitely attack them en masse, and the weapons in the hands of the correctional will not be used, on the contrary, the weapons in the hands of the prisoners will often exert a more terrible effect, so the correctional is not equipped with any lethal weapons, and their safety is guarded by the guards holding sniper rifles at the remote duty tower.

There is a 100-metre exclusion zone between the labor camp and the duty tower, and anyone who walks into this restricted area without reporting can be killed directly, and the body that has been shot will remain there until it decomposes. After several prisoners who tried to escape or attacked the correctional were shot dead on the spot, no prisoner dared to make a bad decision.

At first, there were inmates who slacked off their work through passive labor, but they soon found that such a move was absolutely thankless, because the food supply in the labor camps was not the same as that of the naturalized system in the Eastern Port. Each prisoner can only get a piece of bamboo after completing a work process, and the amount of food that each person eats here is distributed according to the number of pieces of bamboo they count by hand, the less you make, the less bamboo pieces you eat, and the less you eat; And the less you eat, the less energy you have to do more things, and the less bamboo you get. Over time, people who don't work will become less and less able to eat, and in a place where every day is heavy physical labor, not having enough to eat can only mean starving to death. So after starving to death a few prisoners who didn't want to work, these prisoners also knew that they were powerful, and now they are all working hard, because in addition to the sticks, the labor camp also has carrots, and the bamboo chips obtained from the daily work are returned to the discipline without being used up, and you can give yourself points, and each work point can reduce your sentence by one day.

Bao Ping patted his pocket lightly with his hand, there were already seven pieces of bamboo, and if he exchanged two for one steamed bun, he would be able to eat enough, and he walked in the direction of the quarry while calculating how many pieces of bamboo he could leave for himself today. Bao Ping is a native of Guangxi, and when he came to Dongfang Port with a caravan to buy goods, he found that Dongfang Port was actually a good place for his dreams, so he took his family to sell his property after he went back, and his family came to Dongfang Port to ask for a sale in the Senate.

But something started to go wrong after entering the clean-up camp, which was separate for men and women, and there was only one chance a day for the couple and the children to meet each other. First of all, his wife's face was pale every time they met, and it was also a very uncomfortable posture when walking, he didn't pay much attention to it at first, and after a few days, he found that his wife always wanted to say something to himself, but every time he wanted to say something. When he began to feel that something was wrong, suddenly one day he was called by the staff of the decontamination camp, saying that his wife suddenly couldn't think of hanging.

After the revenge of the far back of the ball by the early star

He was a wooden man, and what the staff said he believed until one day a staff member who participated in the purification kindly and quietly reminded him that his wife was insulted and could not think of committing suicide, which made him suddenly wake up. He didn't have much knowledge, he only knew that he ran to the side of the office building and asked to see the "chief", but every time he beat several supervisors and guards and drove them out. Finally, after the purification period, Bao Ping was assigned to work as a porter in the cement factory. After working for several days, the director of the previous purification camp came to him and gave him a sum of money, telling him not to pursue his wife's death anymore. However, there were guards in front of the executive committee building, and it was impossible for these workers to make an appointment with the executive committee, so they were also driven out by the guards.

Soon after, he and his two sons were arrested by the police and sent to a re-education camp for public disturbances, where he was sent to a re-education camp, where his two sons were not sent to an unknown location. After being sent to the mining site, Bao Ping was discouraged, and there were many vicious criminals in the group of criminals around him, but after hearing what happened to him, they couldn't help but get angry one by one, they didn't bully him, and even often secretly helped him, so that he at least had a thought, thinking that he could leave the labor camp as soon as possible and then go to sue the emperor.

After the feud is not alone, the technique is dominated by the cold enemy

"Bao Ping!" He suddenly heard someone calling him, and quickly turned his head, and several discipline guards were gathering together in the distance, and one of them was waving to him, "Bao Ping, come here!" ”

"Yes! Discipline! Bao Ping hurriedly trotted towards the discipliner, as the distance got closer and closer, he suddenly found that the person standing next to the discipline was different, the person was wearing a black police uniform completely different from the discipline, and there were many stars on his shoulders, although he didn't know what these stars represented, but he thought that it should also indicate his identity.

He suddenly felt a little weak in his legs, and the next time he saw the police, he was sent to a labor camp, and now the policeman suddenly appeared and called him over, did he feel that he still had a chance to turn over and put himself to death at the request of those supervisors? His eyes began to wander, and he quietly looked towards the forbidden area of action, and in the forbidden area of a hundred meters between the two white lines, there were still several corpses lying horizontally at this moment, and several of them had already exposed their white bones, which looked very terrifying. A thought popped into his mind, Run! You can only get revenge if you escape!

Shen Bin was learning about the situation with the discipline, and his eyes caught a glimpse of Bao Ping, who was originally walking to this side, suddenly ran towards the forbidden area, he hurriedly pushed the discipline away, and shouted at the tower, "Don't shoot indiscriminately!" This person can't be shot! He shouted as he chased after Bao Ping.
