Wang Weidong stood up violently and spat everywhere.

He pointed to his thighs and said, "It's November, and the women there are still wearing skirts!" ”

Han Guiqin covered her face with her hands and said with a smile: "Oh, Mom, they're not afraid of the cold?" ”

"Don't be afraid, beautiful frozen people, beautiful overcome the cold!" Wang Weidong sat down slowly and said.

He was telling Han Guiqin about his wonderful experience after going abroad.

For Han Guiqin, these things are too novel.

Han Guiqin chatted with Wang Weidong in the office for two hours before reluctantly standing up and saying goodbye.

"Do you have a flashlight here, it's too dark outside, I'm scared to go back alone." Han Guiqin said embarrassedly.

The flashlight was in the office drawer, but Wang Weidong said: "I don't feel at ease to walk so far and let you walk alone, I'll go to the worker's room first to get your pocket and then send you back." ”

If the flashlight is lent to Han Guiqin, Han Guiqin will have to go to the coal mine to return the flashlight a day or two later, and Wang Weidong cannot let Han Guiqin's conspiracy succeed.

After speaking, Wang Weidong walked out of the office and came to the room where the workers lived, and more than ten catties of melon seeds could not hold more than 30 workers, and the pocket containing the melon seeds was empty.

"She's gone?" Zhou Maocai asked.

"Not yet, I'll send her back." Wang Weidong replied.

He turned his head and saw the child who was picking up coal sitting on the edge of the bed, holding melon seeds in one hand and stuffing them into his mouth with the other.

"Eat so many slices of meat at night, go out with me!" Wang Weidong took the child's arm and said.

Han Guiqin saw Wang Weidong pulling the child into the office, and the corners of her mouth inadvertently smiled.

"Let's go, I'll send you back." Wang Weidong said.

The three of them walked out of the coal mine and walked towards Tuanjie Village.

"From the chat just now, I think you are still very cultured." Wang Weidong complimented.

"In the first two years, the county selected a group of junior high school graduates to train in the county to become English teachers, and I was pushed down, otherwise I would be a teacher now." Han Guiqin replied regretfully.

From the third grade of primary school to primary and secondary schools in the early 80s, there is an urgent need for a large number of English teachers, but they cannot be found at all, and the country has stopped teaching English for more than 30 years, and there are not many people who can speak English.

Many high school graduates and even junior high school graduates in Hei Province were sent to the county to study English for a few months, and then sent to the countryside to work as teachers in various primary and secondary schools in the towns.

As a result, many young people have turned over and found formal jobs.

Han Guiqin lost the opportunity to be a teacher for some reason.

"Your grandfather is also a farmer?" Wang Weidong asked.

"Yes, it's not a good deal! When I was not married, I looked beautiful, dead-skinned, married, disgusted that I couldn't farm, couldn't feed pigs, couldn't cook, and looked at me every day like a thief! Han Guiqin replied angrily.

She deliberately glanced back as she spoke.

Sent to the entrance of the village, Han Guiqin said to Wang Weidong: "Just send it here, it's too late, go back." ”

Wang Weidong turned around and walked back with the child, and when he walked out of a few dozen meters, he vaguely saw a person squatting there in the bare crop field.

"Who is that, what are you doing there so late?" Wang Weidong said in wonder.

"!" The child said loudly.

Soon after Han Guiqin returned home, her husband opened the door and walked in.

"Sneaky behind like a spy!" Han Guiqin said.

"Who's that guy with the baby?" Han Guiqin's husband asked.

"He is Wang Weidong who subcontracted the coal mine, and the child is an orphan who was thrown in the coal mine, and Wang Weidong deliberately took the child to me to avoid suspicion." Han Guiqin replied.

"Shi Guozheng is using this coal mine man, and you are also an accomplice! Shi Guozheng, why is so kind to let you send melon seeds to the coal mine? I don't know what the hell I'm going to do! Han Guiqin's husband said.

Han Guiqin did not answer.

Wang Weidong returned to the coal mine and let Zhou Maocai live in the office, while he lived in the Datong room where the workers lived with his luggage.

He spread the futon next to the child.

"I haven't asked you yet, where is your home? What's your last name? Wang Weidong asked the child lying in the bed.

The child closed his eyes and pretended to be asleep and did not hear.

The next morning, the twelve workers who had been in the Unity Coal Mine were reluctant to leave.

A worker asked Wang Weidong, who was getting up and getting dressed, "Comrade, can we also work here?" Don't worry, we promise to do a good job! ”

"No, you have also seen that there are enough people to work, I left you for two meals yesterday, and let you sleep here at night, you have done your duty, you must leave today!" Wang Weidong replied very simply.

Twelve workers tied their luggage with ropes, carried them on their shoulders, and left the Tuanjie Coal Mine to find work in other coal mines near the Hedong Mining Bureau.

There was no work for the whole morning, and from the afternoon four trucks loaded with logs and cement slabs drove into the coal mine in succession, and Zhou Maocai instructed the workers to pile the logs and cement slabs near the mouth of the mine.

The next day, 10 more truckloads of logs and cement slabs were unloaded.

By the third day, 800 logs and thousands of cement slabs were piled up like a hill in the open space of the coal mine.

Zhou Maocai chose a good location in the underground and used a compass to set the direction.

"I'll start working tomorrow, and I'll see coal in two months!" Zhou Maocai said to Wang Weidong.

"It's up to you to decide what to do, and I'll go down tomorrow to see how it's excavated," Mr. Wang said.

After breakfast the next morning, Zhou Maocai held a pre-shift meeting for six workers in the outhouse of the office.

"I have already chosen the location of the location, use the mine truck to transport six logs and cement slabs down the mine, and dig one meter to erect one meter of scaffolding to go up the well and get money!" Zhou Maocai said.

These workers are all workers who have been working in the Daguogou Coal Mine for several years, and they are very experienced, they have changed their clothes and boots, received the miner's lamp, put on a helmet, come to the mouth of the mine, carry the log cement slab, load it into the minecart, and the winch will start to put the minecart underground.

Workers carry twist drill pipes and explosive detonators down the shaft.

Twist drill pipe is generally used when drilling in the coal seam, the rock at the fault is relatively soft, and it is more convenient to use electricity to drill holes.

Wang Weidong and Zhou Maocai went down the well and walked to the working face, when the workers had already begun to work, the workers used twist drill pipes to make more than a dozen holes of one meter two or three deep in the place where Zhou Maocai drew with chalk, and a worker inserted the detonator into the explosive roll and then inserted it into the bottom of the borehole and then connected the line, Zhou Maocai pulled Wang Weidong out of dozens of meters away and hid behind the corner of the roadway.

Rumble!

Wang Weidong felt the roadway vibrate, and then there was a popping sound from the rubble. The yellowish smoke like thick phlegm slowly spread, and the wind in the wind belt blew away the smoke from the work face, and the six workers returned to the work face and began to work.

"Let's go, they will have to work for three or four hours, and then I will go down to the well to check whether the scaffolding they have erected is qualified." Zhou Maocai said to Wang Weidong.
