[204] The New Look of Mingyue Village

() Wonderful!

Pulitzer, King Klay and the others glanced at each other. Although they were taken aback by Carnegie's entry, the heart that was waiting to be slaughtered became active again: as long as they have part of the railway construction rights, even We mined a little less ore, which is enough to explain to the family!When the railway is opened, we will report to the family and let them send powerful troops over... Schmidt, hum, let you be arrogant for a while, then we will calculate today's ledger with you...

In the quiet cabin in the corner of Mingyue Village, no one came out of it until the afternoon.

The ones who came out were Uncle Long, TK Morgan and some entourage. Their faces were full of satisfaction, their smiles never left their mouths, and their faces were almost flushed. Among them, Uncle Long walked squarely, holding a few copies of red fingerprints in his hands. , Freshly released contract...

In the next few days, the development of the situation in Mingyue Village suddenly became a bit incomprehensible to the nearly [-] captives. First, they were released unconditionally and their belongings were returned. Mingyue Village evacuated in a hurry, and these 'vicious killers' were rather dingy when they withdrew, with drooping ponytails, far from the arrogance they had when they came. . .

Immediately afterwards, Pulitzer Morgan appeared in front of the crowd full of energy and raised his brows. He was accompanied by King Klay, Gordon, and Hulk. The four of them were not imprisoned at all. The shadow of the prisoner who got up.Not only that, guarding them were not only dozens of remnant security forces, but also a group of 'native cavalry' with fierce eyes and well-equipped equipment.

There were fifty of these native cavalrymen, and each of them had a nightmare horse, blood-red, jet-black... the tall horse body, the shadow cast by it could make people feel oppressed and breathless!

Pulitzer didn't talk nonsense, he announced on the spot to nearly 100 workers, technicians and representatives of minority shareholders.Said that he had united with the natives of Alaska and reached a settlement agreement with the Schmidt Mining Company... On behalf of the seven consortiums, he solemnly promised that the number of security forces used to protect his own safety in the future will never exceed [-] people. Representatives of small shareholders can also return to their respective mining areas to measure, mine, and mine according to their original plan.The seven consortiums will never interfere again.

This announcement not only surprised the workers and technicians belonging to the seven major consortiums, but even the representatives of the small shareholders who were pessimistic about Pulitzer dropped their glasses all over the floor: Didn't Schmidt say that he would invite a judge to judge Pulitzer? How many people are there in Litze?How did the two sides reach a settlement again in the blink of an eye?So where do we go from here?The simplest question is, to survive and to mine, we need a constant temperature tower. Should we buy it from Schmidt?Or should I buy it from the local aborigines who are the same as Morgan Gully?

There are also smart people among the employees of the consortium, and these smart people quickly grasped the key point: the seven major consortiums including Morgan have united with the aborigines!They must have formed some kind of tacit understanding, so Schmidt, who was holding a heavy soldier in his hand, was 'pissed' away!After thinking about it, the nearly [-] employees of the consortium who had insulted the three of Pulitzer at the trial meeting became uneasy.I also scolded Schmidt who was 'fleeing' in my heart: Damn, I used a gun to force me to spit, but now it's good, you don't even say a fart, just pat your ass and withdraw, Those of us who are left to work for others... Isn't this waiting for Pulitzer and some people to put on shoes for us?Wow, bitter too!

I was crying in my heart, but these consortium employees didn't dare to play tricks.Not only because Pulitzer and others still represent their respective families, and their authority is still there.More importantly, the native cavalry around Pulitzer was definitely not a display. The equipment of these native cavalry was not native at all, and the level of sophistication was not inferior to that of the guards!

Ever since, after Pulitzer's announcement, the situation stabilized very smoothly.

In the next few days, representatives of minority shareholders led their subordinates.They returned to their village one after another, organized their team, and developed the mining area with some restlessness.

Fortunately, although Schmidt was 'forced away' by the aborigines, the constant temperature tower promised to be sold to these minority shareholders at a low price was still delivered in time.The constant temperature tower was like a shot in the arm. Representatives of these minority shareholders immediately calmed down their uneasiness and urged their subordinates to work overtime to survey and map the mining area and dig mine holes as soon as possible in order to produce ore and recover costs.

The situation in Alaska is so turbulent, and these small shareholder representatives don't want to stay for a moment. It is a little bit to be able to produce ore earlier and make up for a little loss.

The small shareholders are like this, and the development work in Mingyue Village is in full swing. Let’s not talk about how Pulitzer and others rectified the four major consortiums whose heads were killed, but the population of Mingyue Village has suddenly increased!Longbo dispatched a large number of 'natives', shouting slogans and laughing and joking, driving into Mingyue Village from the north on horseback, setting up camp and settling down with familiarity.

The high efficiency of the migration and the speed of the movement made one wonder whether they had already ambushed outside Mingyue Village!

Therefore, even though the bodies of nearly [-] security forces were cremated and buried in the ground, the excitement of Mingyue Village did not decrease but increased.

In the eyes of the employees of the consortium who stayed in Mingyue Village, most of these aborigines were orientals with yellow skin and black eyes. It is a descendant of Genghis Khan. In the middle of the Yuan Dynasty, he crossed the Bering Strait and came to this vast snow field to take root.

No wonder they are so good at riding!It turned out to be an ancestral skill!

Some employees of the consortium with historical knowledge thought so, you know, the 'yellow peril' caused by Genghis Khan is well-known in Western history files!

The residents of Huaxia Town who were mistaken for the descendants of Genghis Khan didn't care about the strange eyes of these consortium employees. After they settled in Mingyue Village, they immediately used tools and started construction. Almost overnight, several large artificial fish ponds were built in the village. It was built on the ruins, and in the area of ​​the mining area outside the village, a closed area was built with giant logs, bricks, steel bars and other materials. Cavalry patrols and guards stood guard at the door, and ordinary people were not allowed to enter casually.

The employees of the consortium were very curious about what was in this enclosed area, but their gossip souls burned for a short while before being ruthlessly extinguished, because Pulitzer's order to "open up the mining area and build production" had been issued.The tasks of each employee are at least twice as heavy as before!

The employees of the consortium knew well that this was Pulitzer's revenge, or in other words, the head of the Morgan consortium needed to make some achievements after losing so many security forces.Come to head office.

Surveying and mapping new mineral deposits, excavating new mines, and excavating brand-new ores are the best "communication", so there is no way, these consortium employees can only grit their teeth and sell more labor!

In this era, there is no labor protection law of "eight hours a day". Facing the fierce-looking supervisory team (served by the surviving security forces) and the cold-faced indigenous soldiers, the employees of the consortium swallowed their saliva and resisted a little. I didn't even dare to acquiesce to this kind of oppression without thinking.under pressure.Many consortium employees are quite uncomfortable. After all, they were able to be employed by super consortiums like Morgan before, and their technology is top-notch in the United States. Or in other words, what they are used to selling is wisdom, but Not just strength.

Because of this, when Pulitzer issued the order.Let these 'mental workers' complete additional 'physical work' on the basis of completing their own work.It was unavoidable that these employees of the consortium who had never experienced such hardship complained and were full of dissatisfaction.For example, a geological surveying and mapping technician used to look at the terrain and calculate the data one day ago, but now it is different, during the day.Not only does he have to walk back and forth in the mining area without leaving the ground, surveying the terrain, and drawing patterns, but also digs a few shovelfuls of ore with the workers at night when surveying and mapping is impossible. The surveying and mapping technician was so tired that he even forgot his own name.

Another example.An ordinary miner, his job in the past was to remove a certain amount of stones and clean the mining area. However, now, he not only has to transport the waste deposited in these mining areas to far away, but at night, he also has to bear the burden of Mingyue Village. Street lamps, clean up the garbage cans in front of the houses responsible for the dry-out, and clean up the silted open sewers that are responsible for dry-out... Now, his workload has more than doubled. The strong worker was so tired that he almost went into shock.

The situation above was repeated a week after Schmidt withdrew.

Nearly 100 workers and technicians were so overloaded with labor, there were as many as 157 accidents caused by loss of strength, drowsiness, and numbness of the head, and as many as [-] people were injured!However, the effect is also astonishing. The original mining area around Mingyue Village was only a few square kilometers, but after a week, the mining area seemed to expand tenfold, and many open-pit mines had already taken shape. The raw ore slag is loaded on the truck and transported out, which can form the first income of the Pulitzer families after they came to Alaska!

However, the aftermath of large-scale production under heavy pressure is huge!On the eve of the 'oppressed' employees being unbearable and about to erupt, Pulitzer issued an announcement: Since the mining area around Mingyue Village has been almost developed, the next goal of the work will be to the north, where there are still Many mining areas that have been auctioned off by the seven major consortiums urgently need manpower to develop there.

As soon as this announcement came out, the workers and technicians who were almost exhausted and mentally ill rushed to sign up, asking to go to the north to open up new mining areas!There is only one reason why they are so active. Pulitzer mentioned at the end of the announcement: People who go to the north to open up new mining areas can get help from the local indigenous people. Correspondingly, their work intensity will not be so great, about It is now doubled and remains the same as before.

In this way, a total of 800 people's "Northern Exploration" team was recruited in only one morning. They took the vehicles provided by the natives and marched to the north along the spacious road.

Let’s not talk about this “northward march” team, but the employees of the consortium who didn’t sign up and stayed in Mingyue Village were dumbfounded: Mother, the work tasks were already arduous, but now they have lost half of them all of a sudden. People, we don't have to get tired and fly out!

Fortunately, the Pulitzer is exploitative and unkind, but the native brothers are emotional.

Just when the gang of unlucky ghosts who stayed behind were lamenting that they would be 'overworked', the indigenous people announced that they would send a group of young and strong laborers to help the employees of these consortiums work for free, but the request was very simple. Employees can spend a little time in cultivating and cultivating these 'foolish boys' in the process of work.

to be honest.It is the natives who are willing to provide a group of apprentices for these employees to drive. In this way, not only the employees of the seven major consortiums can get a rest, but these young natives can also learn skills from it.

This is mutually beneficial and a good thing that both parties are happy.After Pulitzer nodded, the employees of the consortium almost beat drums to 'welcome' these apprentices coming from the north to share their heavy work tasks...

Speaking of it, this era is both the best and the worst era. It has no national technical barriers of later generations. As long as it is beneficial to oneself and can make a profit, anyone can sell everything around them that can be sold.It is precisely because of being infected by this era that the left-behind employees of the consortium are not at all worried that their skills may be stolen.When they think about it, a bunch of aborigines probably don't even know a few words, let alone the geometry and arithmetic knowledge needed for surveying and mapping. Even if I patiently teach him word by word, he probably won't be able to learn it!

Besides, taking a step back, even if these natives are talented.Learned, what do I have to lose?Are these natives going to put me out of work?

good.The employees of these consortiums admitted that being unemployed is actually a dream they often have recently. Fire me. If I fire me, I can leave this ghostly place of Alaska and return to the lovely and rich America!

It is said that the residents of Huaxia Town have settled in Mingyue Village for a week.The changes have actually been great. Not only has the artificial fishing ground in the village been successfully built, but also lively warm fish have been bred from the fishing ground one after another. This has resulted in no shortage of materials for the constant temperature tower, and the entire Mingyue Village has become like four seasons. Chun.No matter where you go, you can't feel the cold of Alaska.

Not only is the fishery in normal operation, but every few days, a convoy of horse-drawn carts will be brought in from the north, and the whole truckload of supplies will be poured into the area surrounded by the mining area, making it mysterious. However, some careful employees of the consortium once noticed that from the fifth day after the construction of the mysterious area, aboriginals began to come out one by one, carrying a car full of things, driving to the nearest mine, surrounding the mine , began to build a small shed one by one.For several days in a row, the sound of knocking and knocking came from every hut, which made the workers working nearby feel confused.And when the aboriginal apprentices arrived, the confusion was finally cleared up a little: along with the large army of aboriginal apprentices, there was also a whole truckload of nightmare horses!

This cart of Nightmare horses is round and fat, not a breed for war, but for breeding... Those natives actually use Mingyue Village as a base for breeding Nightmare horses!The employees of the consortium were astonished, and it seemed that Pulitzer had no objection to this.

God!my God!

The workers and technicians were a little speechless: These descendants of Genghis Khan are indeed a race born in the grasslands, and they can breed wherever they migrate!Not only horses, but also fish, God knows what they will raise in the future!

It wasn't until three hundred apprentices aged around 15 were assigned to employees of various consortiums that these apprentices revealed what the huts and sheds built one by one beside the mine were used for.An apprentice said mysteriously to his future 'master': "That is a feed processing factory. Only when it is opened next to the mine can it produce the best feed for nightmare horses! Without this kind of feed, The growth of a newborn nightmare horse will be quite unfavorable, not to mention that it has grown to a height of nearly three meters, even if it dies halfway, it is not so uncommon!"

The 'master' asked curiously: "Oh, what kind of feed is that? Why is it set up next to the mine? Could it be... related to the mine?"

The apprentice replied: "Master, you are right. These feeds are indeed processed from the waste residue left after refining the raw ore... This is the secret formula of our tribe, and only people above the elders know... It can be opened in By the side of the mine, the loss of feed during transportation is reduced, so that the breeding of nightmare horses will be more efficient!"

It turned out to be waste recycling!The master suddenly realized, and felt emotional in his heart.

In this way, the huts and huts built by the aborigines were also taken off the veil of mystery in the eyes of these consortium employees, and no one paid more attention to them.

Since the arrival of the native apprentices, the workload of these consortium employees has been greatly reduced. Don’t look at these elementary apprentices who can’t even speak English, but they are really meticulous and conscientious in doing things. Special respect to the master, as long as the employees of the consortium who are masters call out 'thirsty', they will bring clear black warm water with tea leaves, and if they call out 'tired', they will bring chairs, please masters We sat down... In short, the 'serving' was extremely good.

Therefore, the employees of these consortiums are extremely satisfied, and most of the time, they will almost unreservedly teach these obedient and caring apprentices with their own experience.

A week after the apprentices arrived, the mining area around Mingyue Village was expanded three times, and in a small valley with suitable terrain, a breeding base for nightmare horses was also built, and a circle of constant temperature towers were hung locally regardless of the cost. Dozens of lazy nightmare stallions inhabit and breed inside... At the same time, every day, a large number of feeds loaded by cars are transported out of the mysterious huts beside each mine and headed towards this place. Go to the small valley.
