Since 1979 I have been in the tide of the times

Chapter 160 Subcontracting
After Wang Weidong left, Han Guiqin scolded her husband and said, "Just now you didn't need to ask Wang Weidong how much money he paid. How could a person like him treat us badly? You made him look down upon you asking!"

"I don't know him as well as you do, knowing that he is rich and generous!" Han Guiqin's husband said angrily.

Han Guiqin remained silent.

In the 80s, society became more and more open, and there were more and more divorces. One very important reason was that there was no common language.

Wang Weidong returned to the coal mine and saw Ou Xiaoyang standing outside.

He let the child enter the room, and stood outside with Ou Xiaoyang himself.

"I just talked with Zhou Maocai. He said that after seeing the coal, each shift can fire three shots and dig four to five meters. This way the progress is faster and more coal can be produced." Ou Xiaoyang said.

Wang Weidong shook his head and said, "I've thought about this too. I can give the workers more money, but I'm afraid of accidents at the work if I work too fast. If an accident happens in the coal mine, it's a big deal. It's not a crime to kill people in order to make more money!"

Hearing Wang Weidong talk about human life, Ou Xiaoyang also nodded.

The two of them don't plan to work here for a long time. It's really not worth it to have an accident for hundreds of tons of coal.

"Zhou Maocai has really worked hard for more than a month. We promised him to add 1000 yuan to him after he found the coal. I think it's a little bit less now, let's add [-] yuan." Wang Weidong said.

"Yes, this little money is nothing." Ou Xiaoyang nodded and said.

"Yu Delong also called me at night to discuss the subcontracting of the coal mine and asked me to go to the city to talk." Ou Xiaoyang continued.

"I suggest that you don't answer Yu Delong's phone calls these days. I'll tell him that you're going to meet friends. I'm too busy to see him these days. Hang him for a few days first. If you want to keep working for a long time, you put on an appearance that you have to contact other people besides him to discuss coal mine subcontracting." Wang Weidong said.

Ou Xiaoyang said with a smile on his face, "That's good. When he talks to me, I'll buy it for 50!"

The two returned to the Datong bunk room where the workers lived. Tonight Ou Xiaoyang will share a quilt with Wang Weidong.

"My quilt was made after I went to the coal mine. My daughter-in-law has never enjoyed it. Now I will fulfill you! I have discovered that you have a problem. It was like this when you were in the radio factory. You have a beautiful daughter-in-law at home, but you just ran away. Go to the factory and share the same bed with me!" Wang Weidong said.

"It is said that it is a bad habit abroad, we are determined not to learn it!" Ou Xiaoyang said.

Ou Xiaoyang lay down on his side, facing the face of the child sleeping next to him.

"Whoever is so cruel, just leave the child here." Ou Xiaoyang said with a sigh.

"I really can't find his relatives, and I will ask you for help when the time comes." Wang Weidong said.

"Okay, I'll contact the Harbin Social Welfare Institute when the time comes." Ou Xiaoyang said.

Wang Weidong only slept for less than three hours before getting up again and turning on the boiler to boil water. After the workers ascended the well, they could take a hot bath and then heat up their meals.

After all this work was done and he returned to the Datong room, Wang Weidong saw Ou Xiaoyang sitting there with his hands in his vest and scratching.

Wang Weidong said while taking off his clothes: "I wasn't used to it at the beginning. I wished I could jump into the frying pan and die with the lice! Now I'm used to it. Besides, if there are too many lice, don't bite."

"Weidong, you've worked hard! I had lice during the two years I was homeless, and I couldn't stand it!" Ou Xiaoyang said.

Ou Xiaoyang took off his vest and began to catch lice.

"Don't catch it, keep it for a month and go to your parents' house in Beijing to let the lice celebrate the New Year in Beijing. Your parents must be so excited and tearful when they see the lice on your body: Our Xiaoyang has finally started to work hard!" Wang Weidong said.

Before five o'clock the next morning, Han Guiqin and her husband came to the coal mine and knocked on the big iron gate.

Wang Weidong opened the iron gate for them and led them into the cafeteria.

He found a large piece of frozen meat and asked Han Guiqin to cook it for the workers, and then took Han Guiqin's husband to the boiler room to let him boil water.

Han Guiqin's husband ate the most at breakfast, and more than a dozen workers watched him stuff fat into his mouth.

A worker said: "At the beginning we were like you. After more than a month, now we can only eat four or five slices for a meal. We really can't eat it anymore!"

Wang Weidong answered Yu Delong's several calls.

Wang Weidong told Yu Delong that Ou Xiaoyang was very busy these days, and friends always invited him to dinner.During the conversation, Wang Weidong put on an appearance that now that he sees coal, he intends to work here forever.

Yu Delong finally couldn't sit still and drove the crown to Tuanjie Coal Mine again.

As soon as he got out of the car, he saw a pile of coal with at least [-] tons of coal next to the waste rock. This was the coal that was mined in the roadway three days after seeing the coal.

Looking at the pile of coal, Yu Delong felt hot.

Ou Xiaoyang looked at Yu Delong and said: "We two are really destined, you came just after I came back."

"Brother Yang, just do as you said before, 40!" Yu Delong said.

"Delong, the plan hasn't changed quickly! That boy Wang Weidong wants to continue working in this coal mine. In the past few days, some friends have insisted on paying 60 million to take over this coal mine. What do you think I should do?" Ou Xiaoyang asked very distressed. .

Yu Delong immediately realized that Ou Xiaoyang was going to raise the price on the ground.

The winch turned, and five mine carts were pulled up the well, and two workers waiting at the mouth of the well pushed the mine carts to unload coal.

Five cars are five tons. Looking at the black and black coal, Yu Delong knew that the more this matter was delayed, the worse it would be for him.

"The price is negotiable, let's go in and talk slowly." Yu Delong said.

Shi Dali felt that he was a ground cannon, he thought too highly of himself, and Yu Delong was the real ground cannon.

In fact, during this period of time, Yu Delong also approached the technical personnel of the Hedong Mining Bureau. He knew the truth, and the 20-ton reserve was indeed real when he dug the roadway through the fault.

That's why he was willing to negotiate the price with Ou Xiaoyang.

Ou Xiaoyang, Wang Weidong and Yu Delong talked in the office for more than an hour, and Yu Delong finally decided to take over the coal mine with 50 yuan.

Yu Delong first took out 20 yuan, and then gave Ou Xiaoyang and Wang Weidong [-] yuan every month. If the contract could not be fulfilled, Ou Xiaoyang and Wang Weidong would take it back.

Zhou Maocai found out at night that Wang Weidong and Ou Xiaoyang had subcontracted the coal mine.

"Don't tell the workers about this. We will continue to work until the end of this month and subcontract at the beginning of February. I have already told Ou Xiaoyang that the 1000 yuan I gave you was too little, so I decided to add another one." Thousands!" Wang Weidong said.

"Actually, this coal mine will be fine for another three years, and there is still a lot to do!" Zhou Maocai said regretfully.

"We really have other things to do, and we really can't move our bodies." Wang Weidong explained.

"Now these workers are tired of eating fatty meat. In the future, when they eat cabbage stewed potatoes, they should want to eat fatty meat again." Zhou Maocai said.
