Chapter 222
In the cage of the side shaft of the reform-through-labor coal mine, a group of people had just boarded the cage when a middle-aged man suddenly held on to the wall of the cage.

A young man next to him hurriedly supported the middle-aged man, and while stroking his back, he asked with concern, "Dad, are you okay?"

"It's okay!" The middle-aged man rubbed his chest vigorously, "Xiao Hai, including this mine, how many have we visited?"

"This is the seventh one!" The young man replied.

"Xiao Hai, we're going to start mining in the future! I haven't done this business before, and I don't know what to do! In the past few days, you should get in touch with that guy surnamed Yang and see if you can dig some capable people from his hands. Come here! Spend more money, it doesn't matter!"

These two people are the cousin of Yang Dongsheng's third brother-in-law, and Boss Liang, the father-in-law of the third brother-in-law's cousin.

"Dad, it's okay for me to get in touch with him more! I'm just afraid..." The third brother-in-law's cousin looked at his father-in-law. Although he didn't say his name, he believed that his father-in-law understood who he was talking about, "I won't be happy! The first time I came back from the Municipal People's Hospital, she didn't let me sleep in the bedroom for more than a month."

"Nonsense!" A stern look flashed across Boss Liang's face, "When a man is doing business, no kind of person is allowed to come into contact with him! Just feel free to do it, and if something like this happens in the future, just tell me directly."

The cousin of the third brother-in-law felt relieved, "Dad, we have spent so much effort and almost reached an agreement with the steel factory. Why did we suddenly stop talking with Zhang and start a coal mine again?"

"It's not that easy to run a steel factory!" Boss Liang replied lightly.

Seeing this, the third brother-in-law's cousin dared not ask any more questions.

At this point the cage starts.

As the cage descended rapidly, everyone felt that they heard a strange noise.

"What's that sound?" Someone couldn't help asking.

"Don't worry, everyone, this is a normal phenomenon caused by air pressure!" The young technician hurriedly explained that he had seen this kind of situation a lot these days.

The cousin of the third brother-in-law felt that the voice was not right, and suddenly felt a coldness on his face. After wiping his face, he only felt a little damp, but did not touch the water.Is it an illusion?

Just then the cage jumped and stopped at the bottom of the well.

"This is the water leakage in the auxiliary shaft that I told you about before, and it is also the most troublesome place in the mine..." After getting off the cage, the technician introduced the "waterfall" next to him according to the habit of many days, and was suddenly taken aback—today Why is the water so muddy?
Although the shaft of the auxiliary shaft usually leaks water, the leaked water is very clean, even clearer than the water flowing from the faucet in the mine.

But today the water flowing out of the auxiliary well is very turbid, almost like yellow mud soup, and it also has a strong salty smell.

Others came here for the first time and didn't find anything unusual about the water, so they urged the technicians to move on.

The technician could only ignore the water quality problem and continue to the next stop of today's visit - the water tank and pump room.

To put it bluntly, the underground water tank is a tunnel dug out to store water.

There are multiple water tanks in the Laogai Coal Mine. The bottom one is the largest. It has a main water tank and a secondary water tank. The water will gather here and then be discharged to the ground.

Since Yang Dongsheng and the others found the water tank and pump room by themselves, visiting here has become a common practice in the mine.

Large state-owned enterprises may indeed have poor economic returns, but they are willing to invest money in safety. Anyway, no matter how much they earn, they will not be able to get into the pockets of the leaders, and the leaders will bear the responsibility instead.

After visiting along the way, Boss Liang felt that it was very novel. This mine is too formal. Compared with this mine, the first mine in Hedong is just a piece of shit.

There is a parking lot at the bottom of the well, and there is a small electric train similar to the subway as a commuting tool. I took the train for half an hour, got off the train, and walked for more than ten minutes to the working surface.

Compared with the monkey car that swayed from side to side on the first mine in Hedong, it is not known how many times better.

The production conditions at the working face are also very good, and you can enter and exit with your waist bent.

According to the son-in-law, when they were in the first mine in Hedong, they crawled in and out of the whole process.

And there is a lot of coal left in this mine.

This mine was designed according to a hundred years of mining, and it has been put into production for less than 40 years. Due to the passive slowdown of the miners, aging equipment, water leakage in the shaft, etc., most of the time the design capacity has not been reached, so most of the coal is used. Not mined yet.

Boss Liang secretly made up his mind that he must win this mine, and let the surnamed Yang play with the Hedong mine.

After going around in a circle, everyone returned to the parking lot at the bottom of the well, got off the small train, and just as their feet hit the ground, Boss Liang heard a "click" sound from under his feet.

Boss Liang pointed his miner's lamp at his feet, only to see a bright reflection on the ground, which turned out to be water, "Where did the water come from?"

Since the underground production has stopped, the lights in the parking lot at the bottom of the well are turned off when there is no one there.

The technician ran to turn on the light, only to see that the water had overflowed from the gutter next to the parking lot, and even overflowed onto the railway tracks.

"Run!" I don't know who shouted.

Everyone ran to the bottom of the auxiliary well, where the water had reached their ankles.

Looking up, I saw that the water gushing out of the auxiliary well had returned to its usual clear appearance, but a large amount of water jetted out from the well shaft horizontally, as if countless high-pressure faucets were installed on the well wall.

The young technician was frightened and dumbfounded, at a loss, not knowing what to do.

Since the mine has been converted to production, most of the technicians have been transferred to other places, and he is the only one left here to lead people to visit the mine.

"Go!" I didn't know that the water gave the technician a hand.

The technician followed the crowd into the cage, and the crackling water droplets hit the top of the cage, which felt like a bus driving in a summer rainstorm.

After the cage started to rise, it was even more unlucky. The water on the well shaft sprayed out horizontally, and the front and back of the cage were not covered.

This is water in December.

Although the temperature of groundwater is a little higher than that of surface water, it is not a few degrees higher.

In this short minute, everyone felt as if a lifetime had passed, and no one knew whether they could still rise to the ground alive...

The cage was simply strong enough, and finally rose to the ground smoothly.

Everyone was just like those who were fished out of the water. When the northwest wind blew, there was a sound of upper and lower jaws fighting.

"Dad, Dad!" A young man shouted, "Doctor, is there a doctor? My dad has a heart attack!"

When the Laogai coal mine was in trouble, Yang Dongsheng was also in trouble.

Everyone was happily preparing to welcome the main leaders of the county party committee and the county government. Suddenly, a man in his 40s rushed out with an old lady behind him.

"Master Qingtian, call the shots for us!"
