Although it was dark underground and the air was bad, the shopkeepers, whose curiosity had reached the sky, still rushed to follow Zhao Hao down to the well for a look.
Because there were so many people who wanted to go down, they had to be divided into two groups, half of them went down to the well first, and the other half waited at the mouth of the well.
Zhao Hao led his men up the wooden ladder and went down to the bottom of the well, which was more than two feet deep. They saw the sixth disciple Zhang Jian waiting there.
The light in the coal kiln is dim, relying entirely on a few oil lamps for illumination.
What¡¯s worse is that the water on the ground is up to the knees, and thin streams of water can be seen seeping out of the stone walls.
"In order to let everyone see what's going on, there was no drainage in the past day, and it just rained, so it became like this." Zhang Jian explained.
It was already very uncomfortable for all the shopkeepers to step in the water, so they couldn't help but feel very depressed when they heard this.
¡°It¡¯s only been a day since the water accumulated so badly. How can it be that the roof is still gone after two days?¡± The storekeepers couldn¡¯t help but annoyed: ¡°If it¡¯s so easy to harvest, it¡¯s not an abandoned kiln.¡±
"The water seepage is so serious. If we just rely on buckets and skins to transport it up, how many people will be needed?" Many knowledgeable people shook their heads, and they all saw that the brothel was hopeless.
"Guess how many hydraulic workers were used in this kiln?" Zhao Hao asked with a smile.
"It's not enough to have only one or two hundred people, but if there are too many people to transport water, the coal transportation will be greatly affected"
¡°There are only eight hydraulic workers in this kiln, and they work in shifts.¡± Zhao Hao snapped his fingers after speaking.
"So many people?"
"How can it be?"
??While everyone was shaking their heads, they heard a crunching sound from the mouth of the well.
After a while, I heard a burst of exclamations from the top of the well.
"The water is squirting! The water is coming out!"
"What's going on?" The man at the bottom of the well quickly looked up and saw a worker standing next to the four strange instruments, pressing the handles hard.
"They added a ladle of water to the faucet, then pressed and pressed, and the water spurted out. The water was quite big" The person above shouted excitedly down.
This made the people down there feel depressed, thinking why did they come down just now? Even if your shoes are wet, you can't see clearly.
But they are already looking forward to the effect of pumping water.
After a while, everyone found that the water level dropped significantly.
"It's pretty fast!"
"There is a way!"
Excited cheers came from down the well, and now it was the turn of the people above to be anxious.
"Is the water going under?"
"Where did it go?"
What¡¯s the point of just seeing water? People at the top want to know more about the changes at the bottom!
At this time, everyone¡¯s heartbeat was tachy.
Because even a fool knows that if so many hydraulic workers can be used to drain away the accumulated water in the abandoned kiln, that will mean¡ª¡ª
This is not an abandoned kiln, but a black gold mine that can continue to be mined!
After the meal, they heard the heartfelt cheers coming from below.
¡°It¡¯s bottomed out, it¡¯s bottomed out!¡±
¡°It can really drain out the light!¡±
??~~
The bottom of the well.
When the water was drained away and the dark ground was revealed, everyone completely believed Zhao Hao's words.
He can really solve the water accumulation problem in the coal mine with only four hydraulic workers!
This is a problem that has troubled the boss of Xishan Coal for more than 400 years!
This means that coal mines that have been abandoned for more than 400 years can be turned into treasure again!
With a shout, they surrounded Zhao Hao and asked excitedly in a changed voice:
"Mr. Zhao, what on earth is this that is so magical?"
¡°Yes, sir, this is too draining, isn¡¯t it?!¡±
"This is the power of science." Zhao Hao pretended with a smile, then pointed to the mouth of the well and said: "There are still people waiting to come down. Let's go up and talk slowly with the real thing."
After saying that, he climbed up the wooden ladder and climbed into the well under the protection of Gao Wu.
But before he could take a breath of fresh air, Zhao Hao was surrounded by people above him again.
"Mr. Zhao, what is this thing called? Is it so magical?"
"This thing is called 'Drainage King', and everyone who has used it says it is good." How can I bother you with such an explanation that has no technical content at all? Fatty Tang took over the conversation consciously.
"Drainage King, what a domineering name!"
"Of course,"??It takes four such machines, which is enough to bring most abandoned coal kilns back to life! "Unwilling to gain weight, Fatty Sun also rushed to say.
¡°What about the remaining abandoned coal kilns?¡±
¡°It¡¯s nothing more than adding four more units and pumping water in stages!¡± Fatty Tang and Fatty Sun fought side by side, they really looked like brothers.
"How long does it take to drain out a waste coal kiln?"
"A day is enough to drain an average-sized abandoned coal kiln." The two fat men said in unison: "From now on, you no longer have to worry about the problem of water seepage in the coal kiln!"
¡°Such a powerful thing must be very expensive, right?¡± Everyone asked curiously.
"Not only is it not expensive, it's also very cheap." Fatty Sun caressed a water pump fondly and said proudly: "It only costs one or two silver! Drainage King, Drainage King, large quantity and not expensive!"
"Only one tael of silver?" The shopkeepers' jaws dropped in shock.
"It's better to act than to have a heartbeat. You can buy a few as a souvenir." Fatty Tang smiled and acted as a salesman: "You can get a 20% discount if you order on the spot!"
In fact, one tael of silver can build five water pumps. But how can profiteers sell at cost price?
"Huh? So cheap?!" The shopkeepers were in disbelief. They thought that such a powerful device would only cost dozens or hundreds of taels!
What makes them even more unbelievable is that outsiders can actually buy it
"Mr. Zhao, how can such a magical thing be sold?" Someone looked at Zhao Hao in confusion, but he was no longer where he was.
Everyone looked around and saw that Zhao Hao was already sitting on the bamboo chair at the door, with his two soaked feet hanging out to dry.
"Oh, I am always willing to help others and never eat alone. It is my unchanging pursuit to lead everyone to prosperity together." Zhao Hao said with a noble face: "I can even help set up equipment and lay pipelines ¡¡±
"Ah, the young master is so old-fashioned and warm-hearted!"
Immediately, someone sneaked out and rushed to buy several abandoned coal mines.
This is simply a hugely profitable deal!
Of course, most people still want to save face, endure the scratching in their hearts, and want to wait until this is over.
"It doesn't matter, you can go if you want. I have always been magnanimous and magnanimous, and I won't be angry about this." Zhao Hao said with a smile.
"Thank you very much, sir" Now many people seemed to have received amnesty, and a dozen more people left in the blink of an eye.
Looking at the remaining dozens of people who showed no intention of moving, Zhao Hao asked, "Why don't you leave?"
"Young master, we are not stupid. The abandoned coal kilns have been taken over by Xishan Coal Industry, right?" Everyone smiled bitterly and said, "I'm afraid that going out will be a waste of joy."
"Don't always think about getting rich overnight." Zhao Hao took the brand new socks and put them on his feet one by one, while teaching him a serious lesson: "With the Drainage King, the price of ordinary coal mines will also increase. Go You can still make money if you buy a few.¡±
"Then there's no need to rush now." Everyone said with a smile, "Besides, I'm lucky enough to go out with you, how can I leave half way?"
"Okay!" Zhao Hao happily put on clean cloth shoes, stood up and asked Fatty Sun beside him: "Did you write down the names of all the people who left just now?"
"Go back to the Young Master, write them all down, leaving no one behind." Fatty Sun nodded hurriedly.
"No one is allowed to enter the Diaoyutai during the eighth day of the shareholders' meeting." Zhao Hao ordered with a smile.
"Yes, young master." Fatty Sun lowered his eyebrows and responded.
The shopkeepers who stayed in the reed shed looked at Zhao Hao with their mouths open. Someone couldn't help but mutter: "Didn't you say you wouldn't be angry if you left?"
"I will not be angry over such a trivial matter." Zhao Hao said to everyone with a bright smile: "I just want to congratulate you for getting the qualification to attend the shareholders' meeting."
"Thank you, sir!" The cheers of the leeks immediately resounded throughout the sky, as if they had become shareholders of Xishan Coal.
