Chapter 760 Mining

Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Lao Hu and his companions walked out of the mine together and looked up at the sky. It was already dusk and getting dark.

    "Lao Hu, how much did we dig today?" A companion walked up to Lao Hu and asked him about the results of today's labor.

    Not all of the dozen or so men went down to the mine. Only eleven of them actually worked underground, and three others were responsible for processing the ore they dug up.

    "You have to ask Xiao Tang and the others, but they should have dug more than a hundred tons today, right?" Old Hu shook his head. He could only estimate the approximate amount.

    Before the disaster, a small iron mine of the size they contracted could dig about 20-50 tons of ore a day.

    And Lao Hu and the others have greatly improved their production efficiency by relying on the drill bits on the industrial ship and the mining exoskeleton provided by the country.

    Digging out more than a hundred tons of ore in one day is not an exaggeration.

    "The standard set by the state for us is to dig one hundred tons a day. The extra money is ours. It seems that our hard work has not been in vain!" Another person on the side said happily with a joyful smile.  He also did not forget to ask Lao Hu: "Lao Hu, what do you think we should exchange these ores for? How about we change to a living cabin? The cabin on the ship is still a little too small, and it is still a bit difficult for a family to live together.  It¡¯s cramped.¡±

    "What kind of living quarters are you changing? If you ask me, just buy a new set of mining equipment. The mining area we contracted is quite large. We can open another branch mine and dig more to be serious!" Another person on the side said  People obviously have different opinions. He hopes to have more equipment to dig more mines and to have more income.

    This is a very simple thought, and it can be said that it is quite thoughtful, but Lao Hu shook his head at this.

    "I have already thought about it. This month, I will ask the country to build an ecological greenhouse, let the women grow some vegetables and fruits, and improve the food for the children. This is a time when the body is growing, and it is impossible not to eat better." Lao Hu's  The idea is simpler, but also more far-sighted: "Aren't we working so hard just to live a better life for our wife and children? And I also asked Xiao Tang, and he said that the reserves of this mining area are limited, and the geological structure is not very good.  Stable, if you dig too fast, the mountain will collapse.¡±

    Hearing what Lao Hu said, several people stopped talking and nodded in agreement.

    After all, everyone does work for the sake of their wives and children. As for not digging more mines, these rough guys don¡¯t understand very well. Among them, only Lao Hu has worked as a miner before, and the Xiao Tang they mentioned is  The only one among them who studied geological exploration was the reason why they dared to contract the mine.

    ¡°Before, Xiao Tanghua studied the distribution of ore veins in the mine and told them how to dig to get more ore, so that they could dig more than a hundred tons of ore a day.

    " Otherwise, by themselves, even with the mining equipment provided by the state, they can dig eighty or ninety tons a day, which is already the limit. The standard of one hundred tons requires women to work in the mines to help.

    So when Xiao Tang said that he shouldn¡¯t dig too much, everyone had no objection.

    As for Lao Hu¡¯s need to exchange ore for a greenhouse instead of a residential cabin, everyone can understand that it is indeed more important to let the children eat better and improve the food.

    They are now living on an industrial ship. Although the cabin is indeed a bit narrow, everyone lives in a bit crowded, and life is not very convenient, but it is still suitable for people, and the insulation and heating effect of the industrial ship is good, and there is nothing  Uncomfortable place.

    They want a living cabin because they just want a better place to live.

    But to be honest, Lao Hu himself actually wants the living cabin provided by the country, because it does look very comfortable.

    The so-called living cabin adopts a comprehensive design similar to trap houses and container houses. A living cabin is ten meters long and six meters wide. It is divided into upper and lower floors. It has various functions and is completely an integrated residence.  Can accommodate 3-5 people.

    Lao Hu and his group can exchange for about ten living cabins, which is enough for everyone to live in. After all, several single young men can squeeze in together.

    Excluding the state¡¯s commission for the ore dug out by Lao Hu and the others, one ton of the remaining ore can be exchanged for one point, while a living cabin costs 100 points. There is also a deluxe version of the living cabin, which is 20 points more expensive.

    For Lao Hu and the others, it¡¯s not that they can¡¯t afford to buy one set per person. If they work hard and save for two months, it¡¯s basically enough.

    However, the ecological greenhouse that Lao Hu wants to replace is much more expensive. A greenhouse costs 500 points. Not only can you grow fruits and vegetables, but you can also use water tanks and breeding boxes to raise some fish and poultry, which can meet the food needs of about 50 people.  .

      It¡¯s just that the ecological greenhouse requires additional heating and power supply. The equipment on the industrial ship cannot afford an ecological greenhouse. They must spend an extra amount of points to exchange for supporting equipment.

    ??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????OUTOUT OF THEIR PLAN: In fact, heating and power supply equipment were also included in their plans, and everyone had discussed and formulated the regulations before.

    It¡¯s just that now that we have some points in our hands and can live a good life, everyone inevitably has some new ideas and wants to think better.

    This is understandable. After all, a group of people just let Ansheng live in the shelter. When they come out to contract the mine, they just want to live a better life through their own efforts.

    Now that the good days are around the corner, everyone naturally hopes to improve their living conditions. There is nothing to say about this. In fact, even Lao Hu himself thinks the same way, but he thinks more.

    The group of people returned to the industrial ship, took off their mining exoskeletons and dusty protective clothing, and then walked into the living area on the ship and returned to their respective cabins.

    It has to be said that mining exoskeletons and protective clothing are a huge boon to miners who need to work underground.

    ¡°If it had been in the past, I¡¯m afraid the first thing they would have done when they came up from the well would have been to take a shower and wash off all the dust and slag from their bodies.

    Unlike now, as long as you take off your protective clothing, your body is basically clean, you can simply wash your face, and then you can eat with your family.

    The men who returned to their respective cabins sat down at the dining table. The women had already prepared meals for them. The family ate their dinner happily. Although it was just a simple meal, for the men who had worked hard for a day, they could  Having dinner with your wife and children is already a taste of happiness.

    The father asked the children about their homework today, and the wife told her husband about the trivial matters of the day. The ordinary life was also filled with the satisfaction and warmth of life.
