Chapter 140 Porters

Under Ryan's guidance, everyone quickly searched for the kind of fertilizer that Iger needed among the piles of fertilizers.

"Here, here are all piles." Ryan said to Iger.

Iger looked at the molecular formula on the fertilizer label, and it was this thing.

Iger looked at his watch, it was already 2 o'clock in the noon, he said to the team members: "Let's take a break and eat."

Nicholas and Ryan didn't expect there to be lunch, they both thought there were only two meals a day.

There is no condition to light a fire today, and each person is allocated a glass of drinking water, a bag of bread and a can.

Lane looked at the label on the can and his eyes lit up.

"Hi, buddy." Looking at Ryan's uncooked appearance, Thomas, as an "old man", said in a very calm tone: "Find a place to light a fire at night and cook a pot of hot soup, and we can Had pasta, and pizza. The baked pizza was delicious."

"No need." Iger opened his can while talking, he frowned, and it was another can of frozen beef.In winter, Iger really wants to eat hot food.

While digging out the canned beef with a spoon and spreading it on the bread, Iger said to several team members: "Eat and take a rest for 30 minutes after the meal, and then start to load the fertilizer. I think we can rush back to the base camp today.

Guys, let's be honest, it's not necessary right now, I really don't want to spend the night in the wild.It's not safe out here. "

When Iger said this, Joanna and Thomas nodded with lingering fear.

After lunch, Iger took the break to check several cars in the yard.

Only one car has a car key, but it may be that the battery has run out of electricity, and the ignition cannot be ignited, so it needs to be wired.

Now there are no extra wires in hand, and there is no urgent need for vehicles, so Iger gave up trying.

Iger wrote down one more thing: In the future, when going out to work, bring two more wires.

After checking the vehicle, Iger looked at his watch, and it was almost time.But before moving the fertilizer, you have to find something first.

The smell of chemical fertilizer is very strong, very choking, and poisonous.Once the fertilizer dust is inhaled into the body, it will cause burns to the respiratory tract and lungs after they combine with water molecules. After they enter the human body along with the mucous membranes, they will cause acute poisoning.

You must wear a mask when handling fertilizers, at least N95.

Iger went to rummage in the staff office and found some cool gas masks in the locker room cabinets.

Iger picked up a gas mask and put it on his head to try it out. There was a bad smell of sweat and bad breath inside the gas mask.

Obviously, the gas mask has not been cleaned for a long time, and the personal hygiene of the person wearing it is not very good.

Iger held back his vomiting and took off the gas masks, and then tried them one by one. Each gas mask has a smell in it, but the severity is different.

Back next to the van, Iger distributed gas masks to everyone.Iger handed Joanna the one with the weakest smell, and then he chose the one with a slightly better smell, and distributed the others at will.

Everyone let out a retching sound after putting on their gas masks.

It's just a small difficulty, and it will be overcome soon.

Everyone put on their gas masks and started working, and Iger hoped to fill up the van by 4 o'clock.

It was very difficult to breathe wearing a gas mask, and everyone's physical strength dropped very quickly, so after working for a while, everyone had to go to a ventilated place, pull off the gas mask and sit on the ground to rest.

After a few rounds of rest like this, Iger saw that the sky was getting dark, and he checked the time, it was only 15:24 in the afternoon.

The truck is only 2/3 loaded, and the efficiency of manual handling is far lower than Iger's imagination.

Although the job of loading cars has no technical content, it is very physical.

Iger breathed the fresh air freely, and said to Ryan: "It's really strange, there is no tool cart such as a forklift in such a large fertilizer storage warehouse. Hey, Ryan, if you usually buy fertilizer, how do they load it? of."

Ryan wiped the sweat from his neck, and said to Iger: "There was originally a small electric forklift, but it broke down. After the forklift broke down, it has not been repaired. It is estimated that the repair price is too high to be worthwhile.

Cargo is now carried by hand.

Here they hire black laborers who cross the border, and each person costs 10 knives a day.This is much cheaper than buying a new forklift. "

Iger was shocked when he heard that this kind of formal enterprise still uses unscrupulous workers, he said in surprise: "No way."

Ryan thought that Iger felt that he was lying, so he sneered and said: "When our farm is busy, we also invite black workers who cross the border to help, and the salary per person is only 8 knives a day."

……

It is worthy of being a capitalist country, a real cow.Iger nodded silently.

No wonder capitalists and the people at the bottom have completely different attitudes towards illegal border crossers. You can understand it by looking at the dispute between the donkey and elephant parties about border immigrants.

There is no love or hate for no reason in this world. The key to love or hate is to see whether you are the beneficiary or the loser.

Suddenly, Iger remembered something, and he asked Ryan: "Is there a lot of illegal border crossings in our area?"

Ryan frowned and said, "Many, very many, more than flies."

"Guys, I think the number of infected people in this area may be underestimated." Iger caught the point, although many people think that the number of infected people is too high to kill anyway, 20% more, 50% more ,Has little effect.

But for Iger, it's bad news.

Iger looked at the sky outside again. If he had to rush back to the camp today, he would have to walk in the dark.It's just that the four lights of the van's high beam and low beam are broken. It's not impossible for this car to drive at night, but the risk factor is a bit high.

Forget it, I won't hurry today, finish the work and take a good rest.

After thinking about this, Iger said to Joanna: "Joanna, go to the office to see if there is any condition for cooking here, or take down the gas stove on the pickup truck. We want to eat some hot food tonight. "

"Okay." Joanna stood up and patted the chemical fertilizer on her body. It smelled so disgusting.

"By the way, the gas stove must be far away from the fertilizer, and it must not be lit in the warehouse." Iger reminded Joanna.

Joanna nodded, she is not stupid.

"Come on, brothers, let's work harder and finish loading the goods." After Iger stood up and put the gas mask on his head, he took the lead and walked into the warehouse.

Everyone was sweating and carrying chemical fertilizers, and suddenly felt a burst of coolness. It turned out that it was raining in the sky, and then the rain became heavier and heavier, and the hot and dry warehouse quickly became very cool.

Iger walked to the gate of the warehouse, looked at the heavy rain outside, and suddenly remembered a story I heard when I was a child.

"On a rainy day, stay with guests, let's stay with me..."

Don't worry about it, I'll keep it for myself.
