In fact, there is no need for Team Zhang to stop. The other two had already stopped at the place where the hoe fell, as if this was done often.

"In another twenty minutes..." Team Zhang looked at his watch and said lightly, "The Third Mining Team is about to change shifts. They don't come to this mine often, so we probably have two hours!"

"So that's it!" Xu Zhi suddenly woke up, "They are stealing... coal from Nixiang Coal Mine!!"

"Captain Zhang..." A slightly older black and thin man whispered, "Since it's just opened, we can't mine too much. Don't let them discover it..."

"Well, I know it!" Captain Zhang smiled and said, "Liu Shun, take a few people to the mine we opened the day before yesterday, let's do it first!"

"Okay!" Liu Shun nodded, waved his hand at the few people, and was about to leave.

"Bring the black egg with the college student!" Captain Zhang ordered.

"I won't take it!" Liu Shun shook his head, "How much strength does he have? It's not enough to lose my humanity!"

"He is not counted as your wages!" said Captain Zhang, "He can't mine much coal in this mine, so why not let him go there and practice first!"

"Let's go..." Liu Shun was too lazy to say anything more, and waved his hand to leave. Xu Zhi and Heidan hurriedly followed everyone behind.

After finding another mine track, Xu Zhi finally started working with Heidan.

The sharp-mouthed hoe looked not big, but it was really heavy. Xu Zhi started to feel sore after digging a few times. After all, he was a student, not a mining material! However, Xu Zhi did not dare to give up because this private small coal mine was different from the Nixiang coal mine. He calculated the money based on the coal pulled to the entrance of the mine. If he didn't dig the coal blocks or send the coal blocks to the entrance of the mine, he would have no money!

When Xu Zhi filled his basket with coal, except for the black egg waiting, the others had already returned.

"Sorry!" Xu Zhi said embarrassedly when he knew that he had delayed the other person's black Dan'er making money.

Heidan waved his hand and said, "It's okay, who made you new?"

Then, Xu Zhi carried the basket containing coal blocks and followed the black egg to the ground.

The coal was originally a stone, and it was heavy in the basket. Xu Zhi was so tired that he was panting halfway through his walk. He wanted to put the coal in the space, but he couldn't even see the black egg next to him.

Seeing Xu Zhi like this, Heidan walked behind Xu Zhi and helped Xu Zhi carry the basket forward. After he got the entrance of the mine, Xu Zhi truly understood what labor means.

The tunnel leading to the mine entrance is obliquely upward. I didn't feel anything when I got down, but it was difficult to return with a coal basket on my back. It was like climbing a mountain with a load on my back. Xu Zhi's body was tilted towards the front, and he tightly pulled the rope across his neck with both hands and moved forward step by step.

Halfway through the way, Xu Zhi couldn't walk anymore, so he threw the coal basket on the ground and gasped! Fortunately, he was approaching the ground at this time, and a lot of fresh air was pouring in, which was much stronger than the stuffy heat below the ground.

"College student..." Heidan said, "If you can't do it, I'll take some coals to my coal basket first. Don't worry, when I get it on, I will definitely return it to you!"

"Wait a minute!" Xu Zhi knew that Heidan was kind-hearted and gritted his teeth and replied, "This is my coal transport, and I must deliver it to you!"

Heidan thought for a while and said, "College student, if it doesn't work, put the rope longer and put the coal basket on the ground..."

Xu Zhi took a break for a while, put the coal basket on the ground as Black Egg said, and slowly dragged it to climb tonight! At the end, Xu Zhi was so tired that he had to kneel on the ground and finally delivered a basket of coal to the ground!

But when Xu Zhi felt dizzy when he saw the sunlight falling on his clothes covered with coal dust like golden silk, he felt dizzy and his physical strength was a little overdrawn.

"Xu Zhi..." Old Feng happened to be at the entrance of the mine, so he hurriedly supported Xu Zhi and shouted, "If you don't have it, forget it!"

"It's okay!" Xu Zhi shook his head, and the black egg behind him helped him take down the coal basket and took it to a floor scale. After the measurement was done, someone recorded it in the notebook.

Heidan returned the empty basket to Xu Zhi and said, "You have a rest. I will take you down when I come up next time!"

"As soon as possible..." Xu Zhi was determined, but he knew that he would delay the black egg and nodded.

After the black eggs were down, Liu Shun and others quickly delivered the second basket of coal. Liu Shun looked at Xu Zhi and smiled and said, "College student, this is not the place you stay. You should find a table to sit down!"

Xu Zhi smiled and said nothing. After Liu Shun and others went down, Xu Zhi waited deliberately for a while and said to Lao Feng: "Uncle Feng, I want to go down now, but I don't want to follow the black egg anymore. I transport coal slowly, delaying others making money..."

"That's not going to happen!" Old Feng shook his head hurriedly, "You are not familiar with the underground mines, and you can easily get lost!"

"I see, Team Zhang has a map? Do you have one?" Xu Zhi said with a smile, "Just let me see it?"

"This..." Old Feng hesitated a little, but he thought for a while and nodded, "Of course, but you must keep it confidential after reading it!"

"Don't worry!" Xu Zhi smiled, "I'm here to make money, not to be a spy!"

After saying that, Lao Feng took Xu Zhi to another iron room, took out a map from a drawer and said, "You can just read here, remember how much is, you can't take it away!"

"Okay!" Xu Zhi agreed, and Lao Feng opened the map. Looking at the dense lines of the map, Xu Zhi frowned and said strangely, "Brother Feng, is this Boss Qian's coal mine? Why is it so big!"

"Look here!" Old Feng didn't answer, and said with his hands to draw at the corner of the map.

"Oh, I understand!" While Xu Zhi looked at that corner, Yu Guang swept across the entire map! As his ostentatious light had just swept over, Lao Feng had already folded those places.

In this moment, Xu Zhi had already remembered the entire map in his mind.

However, Xu Zhi was still puzzled and pointed to some places marked with gray pens on the map and said, "Huh? Why do these places make them gray? What does it mean?"

"These are abandoned mines." Lao Feng explained, "It's very dangerous inside. Many places have collapsed or supported things have been taken away. Remember not to go in!"

Then, Lao Feng pointed to some places circled with red pen and said, "These places are where coal blocks are found, and many of them still have some residues. If you want to go, just go to these places to bring the remaining coal blocks up!"

Speaking of this, Lao Feng hesitated and explained: "However, Xu Zhi, those coals are relatively loose and have poor texture, so the wages you will be given may be less!"

"Haha, Uncle Xie Feng!" Xu Zhi had already remembered everything in the map, but he still said, pretending to put his face on the map, looked and looked, and finally said, "You always know that I am not good at health, so let's take these scattered ones. You can't waste all these coals!"

"It's up to you!" Old Feng carefully rolled up most of the map, just letting Xu Zhi see that small part.

With the map, Xu Zhi was much more relaxed. After entering the mine, he took the mine lamp and walked towards the mined place with his memory. The mine channel was very high and low, and there was even a sound of water droplets from time to time, and the sound of wind blew strangely. But Xu Zhi was walking in it differently than before. Although he could only see that it was only a few meters, it seemed that the entire mining area was in his mind.

Since it was a small private coal mine, the mine was not so neat. A lot of stones and debris were thrown away in a low voice, and even some broken hoes and other items. Xu Zhi, based on the principle of not wasting, would enter the space whenever he saw what could be used. After walking for nearly twenty minutes, he turned over three mines and finally walked to an abandoned place. He raised the mine lamp and took a rough look around. This was about fifty square meters of space, surrounded by thick tree trunks. On one side, there were many traces of giant beasts gnawing. The pits were bumpy. At the bottom of the stone wall, some large and small stones were paused. There were also some coal blocks in the stone, and the coal seams on the stone wall were shining brightly under the mine lamp.

Xu Zhi hummed a small song, hung the mine lamp on a tree trunk, then placed the basket on the ground, and began to use the shovels he picked up on the road to put the scattered coal into the basket. When the basket was full, he would be filled. In just twenty minutes, the coal blocks around had been picked up, with four or five baskets.

"Hehe..." Xu Zhi clapped his hands, moved his muscles and said with a smile, "No wonder others won't come! A basket of coal is so far away and the texture is not good. Of course, it's better to get new coal in the newly opened mine road!"
