ore vein

On the way back, Fang Li started coughing again. He tugged down on the neckline, said he was bored, and asked Qin Weidong to talk for a while.

If a person is unlucky, drinking cold water will stuff his teeth.Wang Xiaohu figured it out. Not long after leaving the mine today, the air pipe burst first, flying sand and gravel splashed all over his face, and then the drilling rig broke down again.

A puff of white smoke came out, and the electrician in the village said that the mine burned out because of too much power consumption, and asked them to pay for the maintenance.

"Damn it, our family is the only one mining on the whole mountain? What a bad luck!"

It’s no wonder that Wang Xiaohu scolded his mother. Now that the excavation surface has been drilled for more than 200 meters, there is no trace of gold thread. The six sons in charge of blasting also blasted some small veins, but they were all happy after sending them for testing.

Not worth the money at all.

All the people who came up from the mine had white hair and flour noodles. Qin Weidong poured two basins of cold water from head to toe in the shed to show his appearance. Wang Xiaohu waved to him and stuffed him with a red envelope: "You drive to the laboratory. Room, take it to Xiao Zhao, let him remind me again, and I must bring the report back to me at noon today."

Qin Weidong nodded and said he knew.

Wang Xiaohu let him go, and after getting along for almost a month, he felt that this young man was quite reliable in his work.

Before Qin Weidong left, he went to see Fang Li. The traps they made had been fruitful every few days. Just now, they caught another hare. It looked fatter than domestic rabbits. It was a big fluffy ball, and it shrank inside, not knowing what to do. measures.

"Don't move, wait for me to come back and kill."

Fang Li looked anxiously: "Really kill?"

He reached in and touched the rabbit's ears: "This rabbit is big enough... Maybe it's all spiritual. Look, how good-looking it is."

Seeing Fang Li's hesitation, Qin Weidong thought he was disgusted.

"It's a bit of firewood. I'll catch the smaller ones for you when the spring begins."

Fang Li was speechless: "You...forget it, I'm too lazy to talk about you."

Qin Weidong took out the fat rabbit and threw it into a cardboard box beside him: "Come on, come with me to the inspection office in the county."

Fang Li had no choice but to stand up: "Go again. I checked back and forth several times, but nothing came of it. Have you paid last week's wages?"

"Posted."

But it was less than half of what was said at the beginning, and the mine could not be tapped. As a foreman, Wang Xiaohu was so anxious that he was so anxious that he would be happy if he could pay him.

The two drove to Changding County. Xiao Zhao from the inspection room received the red envelope and said that it would be released immediately, at most half an hour. They were the only ones in the county who had the equipment and qualifications to do the ore composition inspection. They pressed the report until they received the red envelope. is commonplace.

Qin Weidong thanked him politely.

Fang Li couldn't wait, he had been to the inspection center three times, and he knew there was a small shop next to him, so he pointed to Qin Weidong: "I'm getting paid, go and buy me a bag of watermelon candy, and chew on it on the way. "

Qin Weidong glanced at him and ignored him.

The last time he came back to the inspection office, he didn't see Fang Li. Fang Li ran out and bought a bag by himself. Only then did he know that Fang Li still had his private money hidden.

Fang Li blushed a little: "Why are you so narrow-minded? I didn't hide my private money on purpose, and I didn't call it hiding...! It was stuffed in my shoes a long time ago... It's only two yuan...!"

Qin Weidong still ignored him.

Fang Li had no choice but to kick him again: "Don't push your nose, if you weren't so strict with me all the time when you were at home, would I be able to hide my private money to buy sweets?"

Qin Weidong stood up expressionlessly and went to the bathroom.

Fang Li was at a loss, and quickly pulled him back: "Hey, hey, don't go...!"

He rummaged through the pockets all over his body, and showed Qin Weidong all of them. Seeing that Qin Weidong remained silent, he hopped on one leg and took off his shoes, and poured them in his hands several times, "Look, it's gone, look for that I'll give you one yuan and five..."

Qin Weidong still didn't move, his cold eyes fell on Fang Li's other foot.

Fang Li held his breath, and his temples throbbed angrily: "Damn Qin Weidong, are you still a man? You bastard, a big man with a heart smaller than a needle nose!"

Fang Li can't do anything about scolding, Qin Weidong has held grudges since he was a child, Fang Li didn't tell him when he was playing at Peng Chao's house late when he was a child, Qin Weidong can not give him a good face for a month, if he doesn't treat himself After picking it clean, this dog may have to settle the old score with himself one day.

Fang Li sat down on his buttocks, took off both shoes cursingly on the chair, and turned his head upside down back and forth: "It's really gone! See it!"

Indeed, there is no penny left.

Qin Weidong saw that the sole of the shoe in Fang Li's hand was glued and cracked, he frowned and squatted down: "The shoe is broken?"

Fang Li pushed his head angrily: "Get rolling..."

Qin Weidong grabbed Fang Li's ankle, touched the front of the sole of the shoe, and said, "You're too young, why don't you say it?"

"I'm getting taller..." Fang Li didn't care too much, he pulled his foot back: "It's not too small, it can be worn."

Qin Weidong looked up at the clock in the corridor. There was still time. He put Fang Li's shoes on, led him out of the inspection office, and turned into a small alley on the side.

Inside is a small wholesale market, where many small merchants gather to set up street stalls and sell some daily necessities.

"What are we doing here?"

He knew that Qin Weidong didn't pay much this time, and Wang Xiaohu originally asked him to drive the mine to refine.

But now that the mine is not out, Wang Xiaohu broke up with the old man again. Seeing that Qin Weidong can do any work when he goes to the mine, he pays him first according to the worker's salary. .

"Buy shoes."

The weather was getting warmer, and Qin Weidong didn't know how to choose, so he simply bought a pair of thinner ones for Fang Li, and a bottle of mosquito repellent water for Fang Li.

Fang Li put on new shoes, and they fit perfectly. Qin Weidong always knew better than himself what size he should wear. In other words, as long as it was given by Qin Weidong, it must fit.

When the inspection report came out, Qin Weidong took a look in the inspection office, put it in his pocket, and told Fang Li back.

On the way back, Fang Li started coughing again. He tugged down on the collar, said he was bored, and asked Qin Weidong to open the window for a while.

Qin Weidong watched Fang Li leaning against the window with his head propped up, but he seemed to be out of energy after only one afternoon. Qin Weidong rolled down the window on his side, but only opened a crack, so Fang Li could not be blown.

The three inspection reports were more unsightly than the last one. Wang Xiaohu called Boss Xu while the workers backed off.

Within two days, the boss Xu Jianchuan came over in a Santana himself.

Xu Jianchuan had never been in the ore business before. His brother-in-law was transferred here from the capital. He came here first to explore the way, and set up a clothing factory years ago.

But when I bought the equipment, I was confused, and it didn’t meet the production standards. Later, I got drunk with some mine bosses at the dinner table, and once I made a deal, I contracted the place. When the mining license was issued, those bosses disappeared. Now his group of friends often laugh at him because of this.

"Today's meeting, I don't want to go around with everyone. I don't understand mines. After almost a month of delay, I dropped [-] to [-] yuan, and now I haven't even heard a sound."

Wang Xiaohu's face froze, and he interjected: "Boss Xu, I guess the laneway is going in the wrong direction, but there's not enough explosives..I guess there's more...how much more? Don't tell me these things!"

Xu Jianchuan took a sharp puff of cigarette: "Don't think that I didn't inquire. At the beginning, you gave me a guarantee. Don't take the porcelain job without the diamond. Now that the mine is like this, no one can turn around. !"

Wang Xiaohu fell silent, and Xu Jianchuan continued: "I heard from Wang Xiaohu that the masters sitting here are all old men who have worked in the mine for several years. Now I will ask who is capable of finding the right way. Just find the right way for me." Yes, if you can get gold, I will award five thousand directly!"

After finishing speaking, Xu Jianchuan took out two thick stacks of red banknotes from his purse, and placed them on the table with a click.

The two wads of cash seemed to be reflected in people's eyes. Many workers smacked and touched, but they didn't dare to move their minds. They had to pick up cigarette butts on the ground to smoke, and whispered to each other.

They watched the mine blast one after another with their own eyes. They have blown up three times. Now that the new year is starting, the explosives are expensive. No one knows if they can’t get the gold out of their wages. After paying for it again, after a long discussion, no one dared to stand up.

The old man lit a cigarette for Boss Xu again: "Boss Xu, look, Xiaohu is the only one who does this, so there must be mistakes. I still have friends who can introduce us to a master who knows how to blast, but it will be a little later." In a few months, there is still salary..."

Fang Li rolled his eyes behind him, isn't this just taking advantage of the fire, and he said the same thing.

He was just about to grab Qin Weidong's clothes and say this, when suddenly, he heard Qin Weidong squatting in front of him.

"Boss Xu, I want to try."

Qin Weidong stood up, and the workers squatting in a circle all looked up at him.

"Qin Weidong, don't make trouble!" Old Fu said.

Xu Jianchuan also looked at him. He was a young man who was quite tall. He didn't know if he was in his twenties.

"You? Have you done demolition before?"

"Worked in the mine back home."

"Do it yourself, or learn from the master?"

"Learn from the master first, and then do it yourself."

Wang Xiaohu was scolded at first, but Qin Weidong didn't know what he was doing right: "Qin Weidong, don't talk nonsense, do you know how expensive explosives are now, we don't have enough, you..."

"That's enough."

Qin Weidong glanced at the explosives piled up next to the prefabricated house. They were left over from the recent blasting, and the quantity was not enough for one blast, so they stayed there all the time.

Xu Jianchuan waved his hand: "Let him try, let him try."

"Boss Xu, but he doesn't understand...!"

Wang Xiaohu wanted to say more, but Xu Jianchuan scolded him directly: "You can understand if he doesn't understand? If it doesn't work this time, just go home. I'd rather close the mine than be taken advantage of by this person!"

Even if Xu Jianchuan doesn’t know much about mines, he knows that if he waits any longer, this mine will be abandoned. The government here has little control. He saw several mines being mined on the way here. Following this momentum, wait for those people to break through and hit him. Come on, then his one million yuan will be completely in vain.

Soon, the machine started, and everyone followed Qin Weidong down the mine, including Xu Jianchuan.

He put on his safety helmet and watched the violent pneumatic drill firmly controlled by the young man, making regular holes on the hard operating surface.

Qin Weidong calculated that he didn't hit much, and when the drill bit became slightly blunt, he put it down.

Old Fu asked suspiciously: "Is this enough?"

"enough."

The rock here is dense, hard enough, brittle and fragile. After the six sons blasted the cannon a while ago, the water flowing out actually had a faint metallic smell. Qin Weidong knew it well, as long as the holes were arranged properly, The success rate is high, and he doesn't have that many explosives available.

Arranged the gun positions, and then, Fang Li, who was waiting above, heard a violent explosion from under his feet, and the dust shook. Fang Li didn't know whether Qin Weidong had succeeded. He was worried that there were too few explosives.

He kept looking inside, and when he was about to pick up the hard hat on the ground and go in, three or two workers ran out.

"Hurry up and push the shelf cart to install it!! That kid is really capable!!"

"I can see it! There are gold grains next to the sulfur thread! It's so bright!"

"Your eyes are really sharp! Get another one!! Who is that! Go and push two more shelf cars!"

Xu Jianchuan, who came up with a gray hat, lit a cigarette first, and then laughed, laughing loudly, his joy was completely different from that of the meeting just now!Just holding those stones just now, even he can tell that there is definitely gold in them, and a lot of them!With his leather bag in his hand, he took out the wad of money inside and stuffed it into Qin Weidong's arms.

"I, Xu Jianchuan, keep my word! You typed it out, and I'll give you the five thousand. Take it, haha!"

Xu Jianchuan patted Qin Weidong's shoulder with a cigarette in his mouth. Fang Li didn't hear what Qin Weidong said clearly, but he heard Boss Xu say again: "It's not luck, it's like a cat if it can catch mice! Wang Xiaohu, this person you But let me watch it, continue tomorrow, and rely on him! Haha, hurry up and ask someone to send the ones shot today to be tested...!"

Xu Jianchuan was really happy. He didn't expect that this young man would hit a dead mouse and hit a mine vein, and he might be able to pay a lot of money.

After he left, the atmosphere in the mine was a bit strange, Wang Xiaohu's face was so pale that he looked like a dead mother, he rushed two steps forward, and punched Qin Weidong in the face: "You fucking hide deep enough!"
