Section 08 Mine
"Bang dang...... Bang Dang ......"
Conveyor belts transport the crushed ore out of the depths of the mine, with a rhythmic crashing sound every time the ore hits a turn.
Countless angular ores hit the heavy iron plate at the corner, leaving an insignificant pit in the iron plate, and then fell onto another conveyor belt and continued to move out of the hole.
If you look along the conveyor belt, you can see a camera-like device at intervals. Behind each camera, there is an earthling monitoring everything here.
Deep in the mine, at the end of the conveyor belt, a huge one was roaring, like a huge drill bit, smashing the hard ore in front of it into pieces, and falling on the pile below with a thud.
The smaller ores are dropped onto the conveyor belt through a sieve, while the larger ores are picked up by a masked miner with a robotic arm, crushed, and then put back in.
The work here is the most dangerous and strenuous in the entire pit, but it is also the highest "pay" in the entire pit.
Working here for a full day can earn two or three times the "salary" of other jobs, which means that you can rest for two days and two nights without having to go to work again.
There is a lot of noise and a lot of dust all the time, and even if you stand still, the huge vibration from the drill will be transmitted all the way down the heel to the knee and lumbar spine...... Then people's brains are shocked like tofu in boiling water...... Endless churning.
Every now and then, the dusty miners had to wipe the glass from their masks, otherwise the dust would soon be so thick that it would obscure the entire view.
"Bell bellβ"
Suddenly, a crisp bell rang.
Compared to the loud roar of machinery, the bell can be called "inaudible".
However, as the bell rang, the huge roar of the machine gradually weakened, and finally it simply stopped.
Then the miners, who were covered in dust and could no longer see the true color of the protective clothing, turned off all the machinery in an orderly manner and gathered towards the elevator behind them......
When all the miners entered the elevator, the foreman locked the railing and pressed the button. With the sound of electricity, the simple elevator also drove slowly upward.
In the patio, the square sky grew larger and larger...... Finally, the disgraced miners reached the end of the light.
But above it was not the sky, but a high-wattage light bulb.
The miners seemed to have become accustomed to the dayless life, and as the foreman opened the railing, the miners rushed out and lined up into the bathroomβnext to them, another group of miners preparing to change the guard, wearing crisp protective suits, were walking this way.
After the dirty miners rubbed shoulders with the clean miners, they passed through a long washing corridor with water spraying above, and then passed through a steam-sprayed air-drying corridor, before they could take off the helmets they had been carrying for more than ten hours and relax.
"Whew...... It's finally out! Haha, cafeteria cafeteria! The werewolf boy cheered.
"You like the cafeteria so much?"
The burly man next to the werewolf brother also took off his helmet, revealing his swarthy face.
"yes, yes! The sandwiches are delicious, and so are the hamburgers! The best thing to eat is the thin, crunchy stuff with a strange aroma...... It's so delicious! β
The werewolf brother was drooling as he spoke.
ββ¦β¦ What are you talking about...... Potato chip? The black-faced man thought for a moment and asked.
"yes, it's the latest one...... It's delicious...... No, no, no! "Werewolf Brother's vocabulary is limited, and it's hard to come up with an adjective that suits the situation.
"......" the black-faced man was silent.
The kind of potato chips that the werewolf said were actually the rhizomes of the kind of plants that Chen Zheng found that earless rabbits liked to eat. It itself has a volatile oily substance, and after identification, it can be determined that they are not toxic to humans.
However, even if it is not toxic, the pungent smell makes all aliens shy away...... But in Chen Zheng's opinion, the taste of that thing is actually similar to that of an onion.
This tuber contains a lot of starch, cellulose and is rich in trace elements. In addition to being pureed as a type of hamburger sauce, cut into thin slices and fried in oil until crispy, and sprinkled with a thin layer of salt, it tastes like onion-flavored potato chips.
The yield of "green onion potato" is very impressive and widely distributed, but it has an onion-like smell, so it is a bit nerve-wracking that it cannot be used as a staple food.
However, with the potato chips being made, everything fell apart.
This snack quickly became popular throughout the base, and its huge output was so large that even the girls could not eat it even if they were willing to gain ten pounds...... So potato chips were a supply on the miners' diets.
When it just appeared in the ordering machine on the first day, the werewolf brother, who is a big foodie, immediately exchanged a lot of valuable points for a paper bag, and then it was out of control...... I'd rather skip the main meal than eat it.
However, the expensive price of potato chips is destined to make the foodie wolf open its belly and fill it into the stomach, so everyone rests for a day or two in the next day, while the sad foodie wolf is in the well every day! That's why I stuttered......
"Click...... Click......"
"It's delicious...... It's just delicious...... How could there be such a delicious thing on the Star Road? β
ββ¦β¦β
In the restaurant, the black-faced man looked at the compressed biscuits on his plate with a straight face, and suddenly felt that this kind of food had never been missing and had never paid attention to throughout his life...... Seems to be a little out of your mouth?
"Ahh......h Ahh......hh Delicious, so delicious......"
The foodie wolf opened its mouth and bit into the sandwich, the red sauce squeezing out of the fluffy bread as it bitten, and the juicy steak was ......
"Gollum."
The black-faced man silently swallowed the dry food in front of him, no longer looking at the sweet foodie wolf, put his hand on the backrest, and turned sideways to look at the former colleagues in the restaurant.
I saw that some of these imperial soldiers' friends were sitting together playing cards and gambling, and there were a few bottles of "green onion and potato" wine on the side, and from time to time they took a big sip of it, and then pointed to the opposite nose and scolded...... It was a very lively scene.
And some Imperial soldiers are obsessed with the Tetris in the corner......
β¦β¦ Among those large game consoles, the core is Chen Zheng's latest achievements on analog circuits. With just a few points that are incredibly cheap, you can play on that machine for a long time.
Solitaire, game consoles, beer, ...... Looking at the Imperial soldiers around him, the black-faced man suddenly had an unrealistic feeling.
"Ding-dong-"
In a noisy hall, a female voice suddenly sounded:
"Urgent notice, due to the reconstruction of the line, there will be a power outage from 3 pm today for maintenance, please all miners go back to their rooms and do not panic."
ββ¦β¦ Depend on! What a power outage! β
"Lao Tzu just scored 80,000 points!"
"Don't run! You can't leave until you're done with this sentence! β
ββ¦β¦β
In the midst of the noise, the black-faced man suddenly moved in his heart, and ran to his room with the foodie wolf who was still eating.
"What's wrong? Top dog? What's the situation? β
ββ¦β¦ It's hard to say, but in short, it's definitely right to go back first. The black-faced man frowned deeply, "I hope I'm wrong......"
