Chapter 9: Uncle Rhodes Online Shifts
Of course, when it comes to thermal power generation, it is actually a simple steam turbine made by a steam engine, and then a steam turbine is used to push and cut magnetic lines. So why not use a steam engine with a power arm to shake a hand-cranked generator?
In fact, the reason is very simple, that is, the hand-cranked generator is also a circular motion, if it is simply connected, it will waste most of the energy, and it is not the same nature as mining.
The advent of power generation equipment means that mines can operate at night. Rhodes naturally knew the benefits of electricity, and not only fulfilled his promise as promised, tripling Cheng Shaowei's treatment, but also completely improved the status of the people.
However, as soon as the news of the night work came out, it caused an uproar in the mine.
"What? I was tired from working during the day, but now I have to work at night, and I can't let people live? ”
"Yes, I don't know when Rod's heart was dark, and he actually did this kind of thing at this time, the sun rises and the sun sets and rests, this is an eternal truth. Working at night? Don't go, don't go! ”
"Don't make a noise yet, I'll tell you something, you are not allowed to spread the word."
The miners, who were still talking just now, suddenly heard the captain of the second team, Hal whispering something, hurriedly pricked up his ears and closed his babbling mouth.
Hal looked at the curious looks of the miners, and his heart was also secretly proud, and he smiled mysteriously with his nostrils facing the sky and said, "Do you know who made this power generation equipment?" ”
"I don't know, captain, don't sell it, hurry up."
Hal chuckled, but he was despising the miner's monkey anxiety in his heart, and he deliberately stretched it for a while before he said slowly: "Do you remember the document on our mine, Cheng Shaowei?" ”
The miners thought about it for a long time, but they couldn't think of this person, and they were all at a loss. Hal is in a hurry at this time, how can I talk about it today if none of you answer! He hurriedly added: "It's that tall little white face that looks okay." ”
"Oh, I have the impression that the little white face always seduces my wife." A miner clapped his head and shouted, gritting his teeth in anger at the words.
"Cut, come on, Lao Wang, your wife is still seduced by other people's little white faces, your wife looks like a big fat pig, and at a glance, your wife wants to seduce people." Another miner laughed.
"What do you say, damn it!" Lao Wang angrily punched the face of the person who was laughing at him just now, and the man was not to be outdone, and punched back, and the two of them hugged each other in the mine.
This situation like the second team is not uncommon, and it is rumored that Cheng Shaowei invented electricity at night, so he will have to work during the day and work at night in the future. In the afternoon of the same day, a large number of miners crowded the door of Cheng Shaowei's laboratory, scolding so much that Cheng Shaowei only closed the door of the laboratory and did not dare to come out.
At this time, Lin Qiang was strolling around and said that Cheng Shaowei wanted two light bulbs, and went back to install them on the second-story building, so as not to turn around and pull his feet again, Lin Qiang was also startled when he saw this scene. "Hey, hey, what are you doing? Why are you blocking here and scolding? Lin Qiang patted the back of a person who was afraid of scolding. The man turned around and said angrily, "Don't you know? Just because this product invented an electricity, and a hell of a lamp, I want to go to work at night in the future. ”
"Ah, and then?" Lin Qiang was a little puzzled, what's wrong with the night shift, don't you have to get overtime pay, tired is tired, sleep during the day.
"Hey, it's going to be." Another older old man mocked Lin Qiang and said, "I'm tired enough during the day, and I won't be allowed to sleep at night." We are coolies, but we are not death row inmates. ”
"That is, I heard that only commoners who have offended the lord or cannot pay the agricultural tax will be sent to work 24 hours a day, and those places will not sleep, even the strongest man will not last a week." Others chimed in.
After Lin Qiang heard this, it suddenly dawned on him, it turned out that these miners thought that when they went to work at night, they were not allowed to sleep at night. But he also shuddered in his heart, this world is really terrible. People who know magic are kings and hegemons, all of them are nobles, they are all masters, and ordinary people are tortured in all kinds of ways? I thought it would be hard enough to be in the mine, but I didn't expect that there was a place where I wouldn't even be allowed to sleep.
"It's time for them to know about the advanced production system, otherwise if Cheng Shaowei is made up by them, the lamp will not be used. I must not allow myself to pull my foot on a second time. Lin Qiang said secretly in his heart, so he shouted: "Everyone, be quiet, be quiet, all the goals are on par with me!" ”
"Cheng Shaowei get out!" "Cheng Shaowei of all evils!" "Come out and see if I don't kill you!"
...
Lin Qiang looked at the people who were scolding endlessly, and felt powerless, his own shout was like a light boat in the wave of scolding from the miners, except for a few people closest to him who heard it, the others did not react at all.
After shouting a few words, no one paid attention to him, his temper also came up, twisted his fat belly, and squeezed to the front row in a group of strong men, and then gave a big mouth to the people who shouted the most, and scolded: "Shut up Lao Tzu!" ”
Several people were suddenly slapped in the mouth, stunned for a few seconds at first, and then angry in an instant. Among the people who were smoked was the captain of the second team, Hal, who covered his face and looked at Lin Qiang incredulously: "You dare to hit me?!" ”
Lin Qiang made this move impulsively, and he also regretted it a little, he felt that his legs were a little twisted at this time, and he forced himself to keep his words from vibrato: "Do you know who I am?" Don't move! ”
When several sturdy miners who had been beaten were about to rush up and beat him, they were stunned after hearing his words and did not dare to step forward
Hal sneered, "Who are you?" Aren't you one of those new guys? By the way, some time ago, the steam engine was invented, and it wasn't your people who robbed us of our jobs? ”
Hearing this, the previous miners surrounded him again, and the momentum was violent, as if their fists could hit Lin Qiang's face in the next second.
"Ahem, I did just arrived, but my identity scares you to death!" Lin Qiang argued.
Hal smiled angrily, waved his hand and asked a few people to stop moving, "Come, tell me who you are?" ”
"I, I am..."Lin Qiang's eyes rolled wildly at this time, damn it, what was he anxious about just now, now he misses Changshi very much, but far water can't quench his thirst, he was heartbroken, and shouted: "Listen, I'm Rod his uncle!" ”
Hal was stunned, he really couldn't imagine that the dead fat man in front of him could give such an outrageous answer. How old is Rhodes, and you are his uncle? But he didn't dare to bet, in front of so many people, this fat man dared to shout like this, is he really... Rod's uncle?
Hal's face changed several times, and years of flattery had cultivated his face thicker than the city wall, and his face instantly changed from sneer just now to a look of concern: "Well, even if you are the owner of the mine... Well... Relatives, you can't just hit someone, right? ”
Lin Qiang was also stunned, and in an emergency, he came up with an answer, but he didn't expect the fool in front of him to really believe it. He began to doubt himself, could it be that he really looked like Rhodes and his uncle?
A few miners around wanted to beat Lin Qiang just now, but when they heard that Hal was the first to "admit" Lin Qiang's identity, they quickly shrank back, and their hearts became panicked: "Good girl, it's a shame that you didn't start just now." "Yes, no wonder he dares to hit people casually, it turns out that he has no fear."
"That, uncle, we are so troublesome because Cheng Shaowei's kid invented the lamp and let us go to work at night. Only stroke Shaowei, not others. A miner sneered.
Lin Qiang's nerves are also big, he didn't think about what would happen if Rod knew about this matter, and at this time, he really picked up Rhodes's uncle and taught him a lesson: "Stupid! The scolding miner shrunk his neck.
"You stupid hats! Who told you to go to work at night and during the day? Lin Qiang was shy, and his nostrils looked humane.
"Huh? After that, I went to work at night and didn't go to work during the day? ”
Lin Qiang laughed angrily and scolded again: "You are really stupid to say that you are stupid." Let me ask you, there is a steam engine in the mine, is there no need for so many people? ”
Hal nodded, "yes." Now that Lin Qiang said anything, he cooperated, looking at Lin Qiang's arrogant and fearless attitude, Hal was very glad that at that moment just now, he controlled himself and didn't make a move.
Lin Qiang smiled with satisfaction, patted Hal on the shoulder and said, "You're good." Then he smiled and said, "You don't need so many people at a time, can you take turns?" Hal said with a twinkle in his eyes, "You mean?" Lin Qiang nodded and said, "That's right, uncle, I thought of an idea for you." In the future, those who work at night can sleep at home during the day, and those who work during the day can sleep at home at night. If you work during the day and at night, then take a day off the next day! It's called three shifts! ”
The miners were shocked. In their hearts all year round, they really can't imagine what it is like to rest. "Rest? Uncle, what is rest? A miner asked.
Lin Qiang sighed at the hardships of these miners in the other world, and said sympathetically: "Do you want to rest? How to describe it...", he paused and said, "It is that you don't have to work that day, you can do nothing, you can do whatever you want." He recalled the happy winter and summer vacations when he was a teacher in the past, and recalled with a face: "Rest, that is, you can go out to play, you can play games, you can lie in bed and play with your mobile phone, eat delicious food, you can go out to pick up girls, and date." The more he talked, the more excited he became, and the more he spoke, the louder he said: "Rest is to be able to stretch out your hands and eat to open your mouth, you can do nothing and get a salary, and you can be the happiest person in the world!" Speaking of this, he excitedly raised his fat arms, and the fat on his body resonated violently!
The miners, including Hal, were stunned. The silence in the air seemed to be audible even the sound of needles dropping, and in an instant, the miners erupted in thunderous cheers: "Long live my uncle!" Long live my uncle! Uncle, long live!! ”
