"Documentary?"

After being awakened by the familiar local sentiment, Xu Xin suddenly noticed that the filming of the movie was a bit strange and asked in surprise.

Yu Zhen shook her head:

"No, it's a movie. It's just that % of the people in it... well, eighty or so, are non-professional actors. You watch it first, and I'll make the dumplings first. You mainly read the story. After that, we'll chat and watch.

Can I give you any inspiration?"

"……good."

Xu Xin nodded and followed the camera's somewhat documentary-style shooting angle, gradually following the dark blind shaft from the mine outside...

He was very familiar with blind shafts.

What is familiar can no longer be familiar.

According to what dad said, we all rely on this to make our fortune.

If you know there is coal underground, dig a well and dig down there.

It doesn't require any technology or technical content, it's the simplest and most straightforward way to mine coal.

When you find coal, dig down.

What is production safety and the like? Just treat it as free and dig it out.

Then when they encounter a place that cannot be dug, they use explosives to blast it, and then continue to send people to dig.

It's simple and crude, but it has helped countless small coal mine owners accumulate their first pot of gold.

It can be said that Xu Xin's family started from a small coal kiln, but that cannot be said...it can only be said that Shenmu's coal is so good, and the storage capacity of high-quality coal makes people jealous.

At that time, after Xu Daqiang discovered coal, he also started to build a small coal kiln.

If you want to say whether dad is cruel or not, Xu Xin doesn't know. But if you want to ask whether dad's life is good or not, Xu Xin can only say that it is really good.

When he discovered coal, Xu Daqiang had already accumulated a fortune from mixing stations. Then he wanted to build a coal kiln... In fact, it was a special product of that era. For example, coal in large coal mines cost one yuan per ton, and this one yuan

To get coal, you also need various coal stamps, road tickets, queues, and people at some checkpoints or other aspects.

It's actually very troublesome.

But it's different when it comes to finding a small coal kiln.

Although the output of small coal kilns is not good, it can reverse the relationship between supply and demand.

I beg you to come and buy coal, and take the initiative to help you get in touch. Not to mention the boss, the driver has to provide good food and drink when he comes, and let others help promote it, so that more people know that we also have coal here.

Anyway, this thing is just a person's labor cost, coal is readily available, it is just money picked up from the fields.

Therefore, the price of a large coal mine is one yuan per ton, while the price of a small coal mine is 90 cents, or even 80 cents.

Then, the procedures are still those of the "affiliated" large coal mines, and of the 80 cents of coal mines, there may be 10 to 20 cents as a rebate for the buyer.

In short, everyone can make money together.

Think about it, if this continues, will the business of the small coal mine be bad?

And why is it said that dad is lucky... After he rented a small coal kiln, the quality of the coal there was very good. How good is it? No one would believe it. The average fixed carbon content exceeds 7%.

Thirteen.

It has a high ignition point, but is extremely resistant to burning, and is also the most expensive.

And this kind of coal also has a name that everyone is familiar with, called "anthracite".

Under the ground Xu Daqiang bought is a large area of ​​anthracite!

So after realizing the value of this batch of coal, the villagers directly jointly started a joint venture to build the kind of formal mining equipment.

The reason why blind shafts are not drilled is also very simple. First, it is slow and there is not enough effort every day. How can the machine start to pay out money as soon as it turns around? Second, this coal area is a treasure.

, in order to prevent others from causing mischief, you must hire your own people as much as possible. You must be kind to your own people, they are all sisters and brothers in the same family tree. So don’t worry about anything else, the safety factor will be higher. Otherwise, if you are attacked by others

If someone with evil intentions does something bad and someone dies, then this precious land will be gone.

Just these two points... let alone having a conscience or not, it was purely caused by "forced by reality".

Then... Xujiawan Coal Mine came into being.

There is no need to talk about the various cost management in the middle. In short, Xu Daqiang, the factory director, was elected.

Although it can't compare with that kind of big coal mine, it is at least profitable enough.

It's that simple.

When Xu Xin's family was building a mine in the past few years, he often visited the area. He saw too many small coal mines with blind shafts in that area.

So seeing these at this moment is extremely cordial, and I am thinking about how the plot of the story will develop, and whether there will be a time like when a group of people came to the mine to make trouble like when he was a child, and both sides would fight with pickaxes and stuff...

There was a "bang" sound... Among the three people who were younger than each other just now, the thin man with protruding cheekbones was hit on the head with a pickaxe...

"..."

Xu Xin was stunned.

This is……

Killed someone?

…

An hour and a half later.

Xu Xin frowned.

When Yu Zhen, who had been making dumplings, heard the news of the end of the film, she put down the last dumpling and asked Xu Xin:

"How about it?"

"..."

Xu Xin was speechless.

Just touched my pocket...

"I'm going out to smoke a cigarette, Teacher Yu."

"good."

Xu Xin left Yu Zhen's house and lit a cigarette in the emergency passage that he had wanted to smoke an hour and twenty minutes ago.

At the same time, I was thinking about the plot of "The Blind Shaft".

What is the story "The Blind Shaft" about?

A rough summary is that Song Jinming and Tang Chaoyang are desperadoes who specialize in making money and killing people. Their modus operandi is to deceive people into going to the mines, disguise themselves as their relatives, wait for an opportunity to kill each other, and then rely on the "relatives"

A layer of connections, to blackmail the owners of small coal mines who chose to pay because people died in the mines and were afraid of making things worse.

The two of them collaborated in the crime and cooperated tacitly. After killing a miner, they took the money and started looking for a new home. As a result, they met Yuan Fengming, a 16-year-old boy who dropped out of school to work. They used some tricks to get the boy to work in the mine.

Finally, when it was time to kill the young man, Song Jinming couldn't do it. As a result, Tang Chaoyang directly hit Song Jinming's head with a pickaxe, and the two of them started fighting.

But Yuan Jinming was so scared that he ran away directly. After running out of the mine, the miners guarding the door thought that there was no one in the mine and blew up the mine. Tang and Song died in the mine, but Yuan Fengming survived.

Came down.

It's such a story.

Actually the story is quite simple...

But Xu Xin guessed that the director of this story must have drawn on some real events when writing the script.

And these things that really happened... coincidentally, he had heard about them and knew about them.

Therefore, he had a strong sense of involvement in the whole story. While reading it, he recalled the things he had heard from childhood.

Although most of these things came from the words of his father or elders when they were drunk, and they would deny it when asked when they woke up... but they left a very deep impression on Xu Xin's heart.

And the shooting place... although it didn't look like northern Shaanxi, it still gave him an immersive feeling.

Therefore, I endured the cigarette in my mouth for more than an hour.

Even when he took the first puff, he still felt uneasy in his heart. Remembering the chimney in the crematorium at the end, his breathing was up and down.

But after smoking a cigarette and calming down...

He frowned.

After thinking about it, he lit another one for himself.

Then he returned to Yu Zhen's house smelling of cigarette smoke.

When she saw him coming back, Yu Zhen's first words were:

"How was it? How was the movie?"

"generally."

Xu Xin said subconsciously.

"..."
To be continued...
