"Here in the capital, people are now using coal for heating, boiling water, and cooking in winter. This coal is made into briquettes. It is said to be very convenient to use and very economical."
"So the demand is very high and a lot of manpower is needed to do the work. Now everyone is competing for people."
"The treatment of those Zhang's Coal Industry, Zhou's Coal Industry, Sangong Coal Industry and so on just now is far less than that of Xishan Coal Industry. They also provide food and accommodation. Xishan Coal Industry can still make a few pence per day."
"I have already calculated that this winter, as long as we work hard, we will be able to bring several hundred people back after spring."
"You two are lucky to have met us. If you were as stupid as those people and were hired away as soon as you arrived, you would be doing the same work but making hundreds of pennies less."
Dahu and Shaxiong exchanged words with each other, and finally explained everything in front of them clearly, and also allowed Tian Erniu and Zhao Houhou to figure out the situation.
"I see, let me tell you, when did the people in this capital become so enthusiastic?"
"They all want us to work for them."
Tian Erniu looked at several other places, and in each place there were dozens of people dressed like himself gathered together.
"Food and lodging are included, and we still have money. This winter will be easy, but I don't know if they will lie to us."
Zhao Hou thought for a while and said with a slight worry, there will be no pie in the world, and even if there is, it will not fall on refugees like them.
"Never mind it, anyway, as long as you give me something to eat, I'll do whatever you ask me to do. It's such a winter, if you don't have food or shelter, you'll either freeze to death or starve to death."
But Dahu didn't care, he had already reached the level of a refugee, so who cared about this.
"That's right, as long as I'm full, I can do whatever I want."
The Silly Bear Man is very tall, a bit silly, has a huge appetite, and also has huge strength. He can eat as much as ten people in one meal. If he eats with his mouth open, the whole mountain will be empty.
"We're almost here, let's go, let's go, our group will go to Xishan first~"
Here, the guys stationed here from Xishan Coal Industry counted the number of people, and there were 50 of them, so they took them and sent them over to Xishan first.
Tian Erniu, Zhao Houhou, Dahu, and Silly Xiong also followed the steward and walked towards Xishan.
Xishan is not far from the capital, and we arrived at Xishan after walking for more than an hour.
Xishan is very lively now. More than 2,000 people are busy here. Here, the coldness of winter seems to disappear all of a sudden.
"You go to the bathhouse to take a bath first, wash off the lice and other things on your body, and put on our Xishan uniform work clothes~"
When they arrived at Xishan, Tian Erniu, Zhao Houhou and others were quickly taken to the bathhouse in Xishan. The bathhouse in Xishan was also a very interesting place.
In order to prevent the emergence of diseases and plagues, Liu Jin also made a rigid rule that all refugees recruited must first take a bath in the bathhouse and then put on uniform clothes, which is both hygienic and convenient for management.
"bath?"
Tian Erniu and others were all dumbfounded. They actually asked everyone to take a bath. You must know that people like them may not take a bath in the whole winter. Firstly, it is troublesome and expensive to boil water.
Secondly, firewood is not available. If you don’t have a bath bucket, you can only wash outside, and it will freeze you to death.
With a trace of doubt, they lined up, got new clothes, took off their old, black, rotten cotton-padded jackets with many small animals in them, and walked into the bathhouse.
"Look at it all. When you see this nozzle, stand under it, then turn the opening, and hot water will come out. When taking a shower, remember to apply soap on your hands so that you can wash it clean. Also remember to wash your hair.
Wash it."
As soon as I entered the bathhouse, waves of hot air hit me. At the door, there were people wearing Xishan Coal Mining costumes teaching everyone how to use the bath switch inside.
"There are so many benefits to taking a bath~"
Zhao Houhou couldn't help but muttered.
"It's also for your own good to take a bath. Look at how many lice there are on each of you. These lice are contagious, can bite, and may also carry some infectious diseases, so you don't just need to take a bath.
, I need to get my hair cut later, so it’s more hygienic.”
The person in charge of managing the bathhouse today is Du Laosan. He has been coming to Xishan Coal Industry for many days. When he first came here, he was just like the people in front of him. He was very repulsive to everything. But slowly, he found that he
We can never go back to the life we had in the past.
Here in Xishan, he not only had a job, but more importantly, he also learned a lot. The boss of Xishan Coal Industry, Mr. Liu, told everyone about export hygiene, infectious diseases, etc.
"What about our clothes?"
Tian Erniu and others took off their clothes, thought for a while and said.
"What should I do? Put them together and burn them later~"
Du Laosan said without even looking at it.
"What? Burn it, that's not possible. Without these clothes, we will freeze to death in the winter."
When Tian Erniu heard this, he immediately became anxious and quickly put on the clothes he took off, for fear that his clothes would be burned.
"Looking at your little potential, why would you keep these rags if you don't burn them? Don't worry, if you work hard here in Xishan, you will have everything. Isn't it just a piece of clothing? I didn't see it in your hands.
Were you given new clothes?"
"You can wear these clothes all the time. When you no longer work here, you can take them home."
Du Laosan looked at Tian Erniu and couldn't help but laugh. He had forgotten the day he came, and he was even more reluctant to leave than Tian Erniu.
"Is it okay if I don't burn this? I can take it home and wear it for my child."
When Tian Erniu heard this, he looked at the clothes in his hand again, and he really couldn't bear to part with them.
"No, there are too many people here in Xishan. It's too dense. These clothes are not clean. We can't do it without burning them."
"Why are you whining? If you don't want to do it, get out now. I'll exchange your old clothes for new ones. You won't lose anything. You don't even look at the new clothes in your hands. This is a coat made of fine cotton. It's the only one we have in Xishan."
Only Mr. Liu would treat us like this, you will be unlucky enough to go to another coal industry..."
Du Laosan glared at Tian Erniu fiercely and said impatiently.
"Okay~"
Tian Erniu was really reluctant to part with it, but he looked at the brand new set of clothes in his hand and saw that it was a complete set, including underwear, underpants and a jacket. As soon as he touched it, he knew that they were indeed good clothes. In the past, he would never be willing to buy them.
