Chapter 9 Black Coal Mine
The strange thing is that Li Wei was not assigned any work until lunch at noon.
Zhang Ling took him into a coal mine, where there were the largest number of workers and the conditions seemed to be the worst.
Every breath here feels grainy, and everyone around is covered in soot, as if every inch of space is dirty.
“There was an accident down there in Mine No. 7, which was originally short of people, and work can’t start until the afternoon.”
Zhang Ling took Li Wei and the two to the cafeteria.
"You're in luck. Just wait here after dinner. When you can work, I'll come back to take you down to the mine to familiarize yourself with the process."
Very casual After arranging Li Wei, Zhang Ling left the canteen with a cigarette in his mouth and his hands in his pockets.
As soon as he walked to the door, Yan Li looked at him with a displeased face.
"Why are you in such a hurry? According to our normal process, he has to work here for at least ten days and a half, and everyone around him will be familiar with him before we start. This is only the first day. ! ”
Zhang Ling's face was filled with disdain.
“Of course you have to follow the procedures if you want to get compensation, but this time we are not exchanging his life for money. No one will notice him at all.”
Yan Li just stared at Zhang He was very familiar with his "old partner".
“How much do you owe?”
“Thirty thousand.”
"Bet, bet, bet every day! Sooner or later you have to bet your life on it!"
Zhang Ling, who was squatting on the ground smoking, just smiled with his yellow teeth exposed.
“I went to ask Tian Yazi yesterday, do you know how much you can sell for a decent look?”
Yan Li only made some money from human lives before, and had never been exposed to the business of human trafficking. , of course he doesn’t understand the price.
Zhang Ling proudly stretched out his five fingers and pinched them together.
"Seventy thousand! The base is 70,000, and if the appearance is better, the top is 120,000!"
Yan Li couldn't help but hold his breath when he heard this number.
How much compensation can there be for smelly workers there? If you go down one level at a time, it would be a big deal to get one to ten thousand or twenty thousand.
Now this little girl can sell for 70,000 yuan!
"Of course, he told me that the premise is that the appearance must be correct. Tian's good luck caught up with the master of Yaoguang District. He takes people from below and sells them to the top. He is not generally generous. ! ”
Yan Li fell silent. This silence lasted for about two or three seconds before he spoke again.
“How do you want to divide it?”
Zhang Ling squinted his eyes and smiled.
"I brought the people, and I found the channels. That boy looks strong. When we go to the mine in the evening, you can help me by your side. No matter how much the final sale price is, Qi Three. "
This is obviously different from the previous 50-50 ratio, but Yan Li still agreed.
"Okay!"
The food in the coal mine is terrible.
It was a kind of paste made from rice or noodles. It had a strong salty and sour taste. The only advantage was that there was no limit.
Li Wei and Fengzi, who hadn’t eaten for the whole day, finished three bowls straight away.
“The two foremen want to kill me.”
She had just filled her stomach and was squinting her eyes to take a sip of water in a comfortable manner. Levi's understatement made her almost spit out the water in her mouth!
Her blue eyes widened.
“Why?”
“Coal mine pit, unfamiliar place, foreman who is inexplicably enthusiastic, and many workers’ families are asking for death compensation, all these factors are full.”
Levi said calmly.
He had no evidence, but there was no need for evidence for this kind of thing, because it couldn't be more straightforward. The foreman named Zhang Ling completely regarded him as a fool. After bringing him into the factory, he didn't even bother to pretend.
Fengzi was obviously not a silly person. She understood Li Wei's words and held the corners of her clothes tightly with both hands.
“They have lived so hard, why do they want to harm their own people?”
“Because that’s how people are.”
Levi looked outside the cafeteria while speaking.
The group of family members of workers who came to ask for compensation were beaten by security guards with sticks and driven outside the venue.
But they still refused to leave. Instead, they cried and knelt on the cinder-filled ground, kowtowing in the direction that looked like the director's office.
But the field director, who was as fat as a ball and wore clean and neat formal clothes, named Xie, just looked at them with contempt and cursed in his mouth.
“You lazy people who have nothing to do! Don’t you know how much work I have to do every day! You actually want to come to the venue to cause trouble and ask for money! Don’t say that the boss didn’t approve it! With your attitude, I won’t approve it even if it’s approved. No! You bitch!”
After spitting and cursing, he turned around and never looked at the people kneeling on the ground.
The workers who were passing by and saw this scene stopped. Their expressions looked a little sad, a little angry, but mostly numb.
Fengzi also saw this scene, her hands were shaking.
Li Wei sighed from the bottom of his heart that this game was indeed too real. Not only the graphics and senses, but also the behavioral logic of the NPCs were perfect.
But you can’t make money by trying to be realistic in fantasy works, and it’s also not likable at all.
Li Wei didn't like it very much, especially this city.
Fengzi tried her best to stop looking at the people kneeling on the cinders ground, but lowered her head and asked.
“Should we leave before they take action?”
Li Wei did not answer immediately. He did not move his eyes away from the group of humble people. He did not know what he was thinking. something.
“Don’t worry, aren’t they just trying to make money and kill people?”
As he spoke softly, he also looked at the player panel in his mind.
[Advancement method: Your professional advancement will be converted into experience value upgrades, and you can advance every 10 levels (the current experience acquisition method is to accumulate money, legal channels 1:1, illegal channels 100,000:1 )]
[Level: 1 (16.4/1000)]
Originally, Li Wei thought that the game designed such an upgrade mode to give players two ways to choose.
One is operating legally, which is time-consuming and labor-intensive, but no points will be deducted.
The other is to go on a killing spree.
No matter which path these two take, they are not something Li Wei can consider in his current situation.
But at this moment, a different idea suddenly came to his mind.
Since you want to speed through the main line, it is naturally important to upgrade as soon as possible.
Zhang Ling agreed with Li Wei that the time to go down to the mine was in the evening. It was dark and windy at night, so it was of course the best time to get things done.
This also means that he is still free during this time in the afternoon.
Let Fengzi stay in the cafeteria first, and he wandered to the door of the venue alone.
The group of people begging for compensation were still kneeling there. The security guards seemed to be too lazy to mind their own business and did not continue to pursue them as long as they stopped stepping into the venue.
During lunch time, there were still people watching the excitement from a distance, but once it was time to work, the place became deserted, and the families of the workers kneeling here seemed to have been abandoned by everyone.
So when Levi came closer, those people with gray heads and faces stained by tears and soot all noticed him.
In this world, in addition to his grace, Levi always has a smile on his face no matter who he interacts with, even when facing these miserable people.
"Everyone, I just entered this place today. Can I ask, if you die at work because of work, how much compensation can a normal family get?"
