Chapter 114 Coal Preparation
Red shrimp, paired with green asparagus, looks really appetizing.

"Mr. Yang, how about you try it!" The master handed over the chopsticks graciously.

Under the expectant eyes of the master chef, Yang Dongsheng picked up the shrimp and asparagus respectively.

"The shrimps are firm and the asparagus are fresh and tender, not bad! I haven't practiced hard for a few years, so I'm afraid it won't come out?"

"You have won the award, as long as you like it!" The master smiled happily.

"The dish is good, but how long did it take you to make this dish, how many shrimps like this can you fry in a day, how much does this dish cost, and how much are you going to sell it for?"

"This..." Although the master didn't count what Yang Dongsheng said, he was not stupid, and the dissatisfaction in Yang Dongsheng's tone almost sprayed on his face.

You said it was delicious just now, so how can you turn your back on it?
"Even if your plate is not more expensive than meat, I'm afraid it's not much worse, right? If this is the case, what's the point of asking you to buy shrimp?"

"I..." The master was sweating coldly, and he glanced at Mine Manager Wang for help.

"The reason you are asked to buy shrimp is to make the workers have meat to eat and work more vigorously. Who are you going to sell it to?" Mine Manager Wang glared, "Hurry up and find a way to rectify it!"

"But..." The chef immediately encountered a difficulty. It has only been a few years since the crayfish entered the dining table of the Chinese people, and he has not yet developed any spicy or boiled shrimps. This dish of fried shrimp is still just learned by him.

The master went to rectify it himself, and if Yang Dongsheng was not satisfied with the reform, what should he do?
Yang Dongsheng didn't make it difficult for him, "If you do this, wash the shrimp, remove the shrimp line, add some salt, pepper, aniseed ingredients, and cooking wine, and cook it directly in the big pot according to the method of braised vegetables. Whoever wants to buy it, just weigh it for him. They peel the shells themselves, understand?"

"Mr. Yang gave you all the recipes, why don't you follow what Mr. Yang said?" Mine Manager Wang gave the master winks.

"Okay, okay!" The master burst into tears of gratitude.

Yang Dongsheng suddenly realized that he had just sung a red face for Mine Manager Wang.

In the future, the rice at Shunhe Coal Mine cannot be eaten, at least they cannot eat the stir-fries they make separately, otherwise, the dishes will definitely be full of the spittle of the master chef.

The braised pork is sweet and soft, fat but not greasy.

Especially the broth, it seems that all the essence is concentrated in the soup.

Yang Dongsheng also made braised pork at home, but it was not as delicious as the big canteen.

"This braised pork needs to be stewed in a big pot to be delicious!" Mine manager Wang seemed to have seen Yang Dongsheng's thoughts.

"Yeah!" Yang Dongsheng deeply agreed.

After eating three bowls of rice in a row, Yang Dongsheng put down the bowl.

Seeing this, mine manager Wang also put down the bowl, hesitated for a while, and finally asked tentatively, "Mr. Yang, there is something I want to report to you!"

"you say!"

"That's right! Our Shunhe Coal Mine has always been selling raw coal. Although this saves trouble, it is really a loss. The price of a ton of lump coal is several times higher than that of raw coal."

Mine Manager Wang is asking Yang Dongsheng for a coal preparation plant.

Yang Dongsheng also wants to build a coal preparation plant. After all, most of the domestic raw coal has been washed, and building a coal preparation plant is the general trend.

However, the Shunhe Coal Mine was contracted by Yang Dongsheng. Now that the price of coal has risen, Yang Dongsheng has basically completed the reclamation. At this time, the establishment of a coal preparation plant will not force the township to default on the contract?
Yang Dongsheng would not go to the coal preparation plant without sufficient preparation, but Mine Manager Wang had to appease him.

"Mine Manager Wang, don't worry, I have plans for the coal preparation plant, and now is not the time!"

Mine Manager Wang was not at all disappointed by Yang Dongsheng's words, "Mr. Yang, the coal preparation plant has a large investment and a long construction period. Of course, it is not just built. I have a way to solve the immediate urgent need. I don't know Mr. Yang... "

"tell me the story!"

"The output of Shunhe Coal Mine has been greatly increased, but the maximum daily output is only more than 400 tons. We believe that this output can be washed by people."

"Manual coal preparation?"

"That's right! We don't need to divide coal as finely as a real coal preparation plant. As long as we separate the large and medium coals, and then pick out the blasting wire and waste wood, the price can increase a bit!"

"It's a good idea!" Yang Dongsheng likes the method with small investment and quick results, "I think it's feasible!"

Yang Dongsheng picked up the teacup and raised it to Mine Manager Wang with tea instead of wine.

Mine Manager Wang quickly picked up his teacup, "Thank you, Mr. Yang!"

The busy autumn vacation was much shorter than before, Yang Dongsheng didn't feel anything, Yang Richu had already started school.

Yang Dongsheng sent Yang Richu to school, "Don't be reluctant to spend money, just tell me if you need anything, you know?"

After leaving Shunhe Middle School, Yang Dongsheng rushed directly to the quarry.

The main road reconstruction project of Shunhe Township, which has been officially renamed Shunhe Avenue by the township government, is about to start.

Since there is no slag, only stones can be used to pave the road this time. All the stones used come from the Shunhe quarry.

Mine Manager Zhang of the quarry took Yang Dongsheng to visit several surrounding villages.

The work of gravel has been handed over to them, and the working conditions are still so bad, with dust flying everywhere.

But fortunately, the labor enthusiasm is very high, and the stock is sufficient.

Walking all the way to the village, just as he was about to get in the car, a stone lion suddenly caught Yang Dongsheng's attention.

This is a stone lion as tall as a person, with a simple shape and extraordinary power.

An old man in his sixties was carving another stone lion, apparently a pair.

"Master, who did you learn this skill from?"

"Does this still need to be learned? You will be born!" The old man gave Yang Dongsheng a white look.

"Mr. Yang, their village has been carving stones for generations." Mine Manager Zhang said.

The so-called relying on the mountains to eat the mountains, several villages near the quarry are good at stone carvings, and it is said that the craftsmanship of carvings has been passed down for hundreds of years.

Later, the village designated several big mountains as quarries, and they were not allowed to enter the mountains to quarry. At the same time, there were fewer people buying stone lions, so they had to go to the quarry to smash rocks to make money.

Now there are still stone carving craftsmen in the village, all of whom are elderly people.

"It's a waste of money!"

"Mr. Yang, you have good eyesight. A leader said the same thing yesterday!" Mine manager Zhang gave a thumbs up.

"Which leader also said that?"

"I don't know!" Mine Manager Zhang shook his head.

"I don't know? If I don't know you, how do you know that he is the leader?"

"looks like."

"Looks like it?" Yang Dongsheng sneered for a while, "Tell me, where did you meet, why does it look like a leader?"

"It's like this! Yesterday a car got stuck at the gate of our quarry. We helped them push the car out. Standing next to the car was a man in his 40s. Leader. He also brought a 30-year-old attendant and a driver, 45-[-] years old, black and thin. The leader also asked me to take him to visit these villages.”
