Cheng Feng smiled and said, "Please come and protect the child."

Uncle Chen smiled and said: "Okay, okay, this method is good."

Everyone was let into the room, and Cangman said to Yuhua: "Don't be too excited. You should arrange food and drink for everyone first."

Yuhua nodded in agreement.

Before the food was on the table, Boss Qian talked about his plan: "The mine will open tomorrow, and you two have to go with us."

Uncle Chen was confused by what they said, but he followed them early the next morning, leaving a few women at home.

More than two thousand people went up the mountain. Shang Xi made everyone stop halfway up the mountain. This was the agreement with Boss Qian to start mining halfway up the mountain in a stepped manner.

At this time, this location is easier to excavate and less likely to collapse.

The manager divided the people into several groups to excavate at different heights. The purpose was to create a stepped platform to facilitate excavation and transportation later.

They have already made a transmission tool. Although it cannot be like a modern conveyor, this transmission tool can slide the coal from the upper level to the next level, so there is no need to waste manpower carrying it down.

This thing was suggested by Shang Xi. Boss Qian asked someone to make it. Shang Xi smiled when he saw this tool. He thought that he had chosen the right person to cooperate with Boss Qian. This person is really smart and can make sense once he talks. It's so transparent and has a very high level of understanding.

For money, the workers soon started digging the mines.

At this time, after following Cheng Feng and asking Uncle Chen for a long time, he also knew what these people were doing.

Uncle Chen said: "How much does this worker cost per day?"

Boss Qian said: "Thirty cash."

Uncle Chen heard this: "So many? Do you still need people?"

Boss Qian said: "Do you know anyone you want to work with?"

Uncle Chen said: "I'll do it. I'm in good health. It pays me more than my job of pulling a carriage. The main thing is that it's stable and it's a long-term job."

Cheng Feng was the first to object: "No, how old are you? You are not capable of swinging a sledgehammer."

Shang Xi also said, "Uncle Chen, if you have to work, when Cheng Feng and we open another shop, will you come and help us?"

Uncle Chen said: "I can't let you two give me money for nothing. I am just plowing coal here. Aren't you providing food, drink and shelter? I can do this, and it will be lively when there are many people."

Boss Qian on the side smiled and said: "Uncle Chen, I think you have the bearing of a leader, so you can stay here and help me manage people."

Uncle Chen said: "How can I care about people? You don't need me to give advice here. If this is the case, I'd better go home and drive the carriage to do the work."

Boss Qian said with a smile: "Uncle Chen, there is a lot of work here. How can these few people be enough? When the next batch of people arrive, we will have to do further processing. You stay here and watch them slide. Yes, they are too young to do this kind of work."

The smooth people Boss Qian refers to are the group of people under his own command who specialize in supervising the work of these miners.

In the end, Uncle Chen was persuaded by Boss Qian's sincerity and decided to stay.

Boss Qian had a drink with Uncle Cheng yesterday, and he also respected Uncle Chen very much. Uncle Chen was rare and kind and upright.

However, Cheng Feng and Shang Xi didn't participate in a word, because Shang Xi had already told Boss Qian that she and Cheng Feng would not interfere in the recruitment of people, and they would not interfere in the sales. For other issues, they could go to her and Cheng. wind.

She can do this.

Not only was there a lot of noise and dust on the mountain, but there were also several workers digging wells waiting at the foot of the mountain.

It was up to Shang Xi to decide where to dig the well. Shang Xi walked through the huge territory at the foot of the mountain for three full rounds, and these three rounds took a lot of time.

The group of people digging the well were all anxious, "What are you looking at? There are so many men who still want to listen to a woman."

Cangman said: "Just wait, our bosses don't dare to say anything, what are you talking about?"

He used people's money to eliminate disasters for others. Three hours later, after Shang Xi's measurement and budget, he decided to dig four wells. The locations were already drawn. After looking at them, the well-drilling master said: "These locations are fine. It should be able to produce water.”

Boss Qian had doubts: "Shang Xi, are these four numbers unlucky?"

Shang Xi smiled and said: "Three wells are missing, and there is no room for five wells."

Boss Qian said: "Can't you find a location for the fifth well in such a big place?"

Shang Xi smiled and said: "The place is big, but processing and storage all require space."

Shang Xi said: "Look, this is our processing location, and this is our storage."

After hearing this, Boss Qian felt that what Shang Xi said made sense.

"Isn't that well over there too far?"

Shang Xi smiled and said, "That well is used for domestic water. We rely on that well for cooking and drinking."

Boss Qian nodded and said, "It makes sense."

Yuhua was very busy at home with several women. How could she prepare food for more than [-] people? Fortunately, her mother-in-law and Sister Wu were calm, otherwise she would have cried.

Just one dish, potato and chicken nuggets.

Noon has passed, and the carriage delivering meals has not come.

The workers on the mountain were hungry and there was no drinkable water. Many people went to the river to fill water bottles with water bags.

Boss Qian glanced at his pocket watch and said, "Why hasn't the meal arrived yet? Cangman, let the workers come down and rest."

Shang Xi said: "It should be that the dishes were not cooked."

Boss Qian was worried. If the workers didn't have enough to eat, how could they have the strength to work?

After two thousand workers went to the river to wash their faces and hands, it was completely dark, and they all sat on the ground waiting to eat.

Boss Qian glanced at his pocket watch again and said, "Cangman, go back and take a look."

Before Cangman could get on his horse, the food delivery person came.

This scene really shocked everyone. The steamed buns were packed in a carriage. Everyone was hungry. When they smelled the noodles, they all stood up and surrounded the carriage.

Uncle Chen said: "Don't even take it, line up first."

Uncle Chen came over and asked Boss Qian, "How many buns and vegetables per person?"

Boss Qian's explanation at the time was very vague. He was busy forgetting what was going on, so he didn't know clearly. "Just eat whatever you want."

Cangman said: "You can eat any steamed buns, one bowl of vegetables and two pieces of fermented bean curd."

Uncle Chen nodded and said, "One bowl of vegetables, two pieces of fermented bean curd, and steamed buns for each person."

The workers cheered. They didn't expect that the money given here every day was so high and the food was so good. They were eating fine grains.

According to Uncle Chen's request, everyone lined up in several lines. Seeing that everyone was in a hurry to eat, Shang Xi walked over to help serve the dishes.

One of the people serving the food said, "You're serving it wrong. There are two pieces of chicken in one bowl, otherwise there will only be potatoes in the back."

When Shang Xi saw that she couldn't do the job herself, she had to put two pieces of fermented bean curd in everyone's bowl. Unexpectedly, the fermented fermented bean curd that she couldn't sell actually became famous here. Although it only served as a pickle, everyone also liked it. They didn’t even know what this fermented bean curd was, but few people refused it. After eating it, it became more and more fragrant, and they all said it was delicious.

After everyone had eaten, Shang Xi and the others started to eat. The basins for serving vegetables had been scraped clean, and there was not even a piece of potato residue. Everyone had to make steamed buns with fermented bean curd.

Boss Qian said while eating: "We need to increase the amount of this dish tonight. It's okay if we don't eat it. Some workers didn't get any food."

Although Boss Qian stood still, he saw everything. Many people just ate some bean curd instead of the food.
