Chapter 157: Mine
In fact, the signs that coal mines can make a lot of money began to appear in 2001, and then continued for ten years to reach a peak and then decline again, during which it also created an extremely complex label for coal bosses.
Before that, the coal boss was not as easy to do as people now remember.
It should be from the 80s, private began to enter the field of coal mining, the main reason is that in the environment at that time, in order to solve the problem of energy shortage, the state encouraged the coal province of Shanxi to speed up the development of the industry, since then, Shanxi and other coal-producing provinces, began to emerge a large number of small coal mines, like mushrooms after a rain, there are coal mines in every village, is the best portrayal of that time.
However, on the other hand, due to the low coal price at that time, it was basically difficult for the village mines to make a living, so most of the village mines that could not survive would choose to contract to individuals, so far, state-owned enterprises began to be privatized, and China's first batch of "coal bosses" was born.
Having said that, don't think that contracting coal mines was a very beautiful and very prestigious thing at that time, just the opposite, in the eyes of ordinary people, contracting coal mines to live by digging coal, are all some indiscriminate settlements, all day long, do not do business, do not do business, only such people, choose to dig coal, the villagers look down on it, at the beginning, no one wants to send the pit for nothing.
And the first batch of coal mine owners, according to their words, had to think about eating bowls of noodles for a long time at that time! Some people who have good brains can still support their families, but if they do not manage well, they dare not stay at home during the New Year's holidays, and they have to go out at night to avoid debts.
In the late 80s and early 90s, the coal mining industry began to decline, and by 91 and 92, each ton of coal could only be sold for 20-40 yuan, and it could not get up, and it fell into an unprecedented trough, even if it was a state-owned mine, it often failed to pay wages, and those private coal mine owners were almost desperate.
The year when Yuan Yu and Liang Shui came to Heilongjiang, it happened to be the beginning of the signs of coal price decline, the price fell, and the coal mines that wanted to make more money mainly paid workers' wages and a series of expenses, so they could only dig more and mine more, when every coal mine owner did this, the coal began to accumulate a large amount of coal, paving the way for the trough in a few years.
Of course, in the eyes of those mixed private coal bosses, in order to survive the difficulties and make money, then only workers who do not have to pay wages are the most cost-effective, and coal, always stained with blood, is black enough.
"So-and-so was deceived into a black factory, and he can't find it until now!" Such stories and examples will always be used by the old people of the time and later to scare the young people in the family for generations.
And every year, there will be black trade that surfaces with the escape of black laborers, and such things as black labor have never been eradicated since ancient times......
。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。
For Yuan Yu, when he arrived at the place, he never thought that he would be sold to this gray place.
It is indeed not stunned, this small city near the small Xing'an Mountains and the west of the Songhua River, even the clothes worn by people seem to be gray, and there are almost no people in restaurants and shopping malls.
When Yuan Yu and Liang Shuan and his gang got out of the car and walked on the road, Yuan Yu could often see half-grown children like himself picking up pieces of black and shiny coal on the open-pit mine with grain bags.
Yuan Yu thought that he had arrived at the place, and looked curiously, and Liang Shuan on the side asked his eldest brother: "Brother, I also heard that I went to work in the mine, and I just signed it at the restaurant for dinner in the future?" ”
The eldest brother replied with a sneer: "People work in the country's mines, how do you compare with others?" Besides, what a signature, to put it bluntly, is not an IOU! ”
Liang Xuan actually didn't understand his eldest brother's temper, why he became more and more irritable along the way, as if the closer he got to the place, the more capricious his temper became.
Liang Bolt wanted to ask if they were going to work in a state-run mine, and if so, it would be a unit, which was an extremely stylish thing in the minds of the common people of Liang Bolt.
But in the end, Liang Bolt didn't ask, because they didn't stop in this small city at all, but followed the imprint of the car wheel all the way, all the way to the outside of the city, and got on a small train.
This kind of small train, the body is black, it is a special railway line of state-owned mining enterprises, that is, it pulls coal, and it does not run too far, and the head of the locomotive must have a master who constantly adds coal and water to the furnace, and boils the water, and the car runs.
This kind of car, which also solicits customers, is also cheaper to take a trip, and if it is a coal mine, it will be cheaper.
Before arriving at the mine, the eldest brother took them around and walked along another mountain road for a long time, until it was completely dark, Yuan Yu vaguely saw that among the ups and downs of the mountain shadow in front of him, there was a huge lamp, which was shining with a miserable yellow light, and the sound of diesel engines could be vaguely heard.
The tired Liang Xuan wiped the sweat on his forehead happily, and complained to the people around him that it had finally arrived, everyone was happy and talked more, but the eldest brother who brought them was unusually silent, just silently leading the way in front.
Yuan Yu was a little strange, and his steps were getting slower and slower, not for anything else, just because, under the dim light, the mine was too quiet, and this should not be the scene that a place of work should be.
Except for a few carts, there were random wooden sheds made of wood, which were littered with wires and a pile of broken copper.
Coal mixed with dirt and gravel scattered randomly at the mouth of the mine, and the steel brace surface supporting the mine road was exposed from the mine, and even broken.
The eldest brother of the leader, Liang Xuan, asked the dozen or so people to wait on the side, and one person walked away and got into a barely looking room.
Yuan Yu saw a small gossip copper sword hanging in the center of the door from the corner of the door, and on both sides, there were also some yellow papers with unknown fonts.
Liang Shu, who was closest to Yuan Yu, should have sensed Yuan Yu's uneasiness, but before he could ask, the eldest brother came out of the house.
Yuan Yu saw it clearly, and the moment Liang Xuan's eldest brother went out, he put a pile of thick things in his trouser pocket.
Walking up to a few people, the eldest brother took out two boxes of red plum cigarettes, stuffed them into Liang Xuan's hands, told Liang Zhuo to disperse the cigarettes, and took out three hundred yuan, and said apologetically: "The brothers have lived in the coal mine owner for the past few days, and in half a month, the mine will be able to get people down. ”
Liang Xuan asked blankly: "Big brother, all the people in our mountains are here, don't you stay here?" ”
The eldest brother's cheeks twitched stiffly a few times, and he squeezed out a smile and said: "Brother, there are still a group of workers outside, waiting for me to pick it up, a big project, there are many people, you stay here for a few days, ah!" When I come back, the money is not enough, and after eating, it will be counted in my account, and I will come back and settle it together! ”
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, lit a cigarette, laughed and scolded a few words, and didn't mind.
As he spoke, the eldest brother said goodbye, turned around and left, halfway through, turned back again, and stuffed a hundred yuan into everyone's hands, including Yuan Yu, and when he was finished, the eldest brother said absentmindedly to take care, and dragged his steps......
