Regarding the update, it was basically two to three chapters in the afternoon and at night.
(Subtitle: Chunhua Yuanbao backs Buddha statue and offers money)
On November 10th, 1979, three days after the beginning of winter, a jeep drove out of the coal mine office area in the county and headed toward the Wutai Mountain scenic area along the snow-covered road.
The driver was the only one in the car. It was Qin Shi, who had come to discuss business.
In just a few days, he had already settled a total of 20,000 tons of coal for power generation. The first heavy-duty coal train had been sent out late at night and was directly sent to the Beijing East Transportation Station.
While the negotiations were still ongoing, the first payment of 2500 tons of coal arrived by wire transfer, which made the subsequent negotiations exceptionally smooth.
Originally, they were only going to give him 2500 tons of coal, but because of Qin Shi's preferential terms, the supplier immediately agreed to add 15,000 tons to the 5000 tons as long as the payment was made in time! Even the relationship with the railway was handled by the coal mine.
These few days, he should eat and drink. For an open-pit coal mine with an annual output of 600,000 tons, the demand for 20,000 tons was not small. The extra 20,000 tons of coal needed before the new year could allow the price of coal to rise by 8% generously.
More importantly, he could still follow this method in the future, with at least 80,000 tons a year.
With such a price, not to mention this coal mine, all the nearby coal mining companies would warmly welcome it!
Only a few customers in the central and southern provinces had the courage to do so, because the economy there had been partially liberalized, and some had implemented a " bargaining system." This was not the case on Wutai.
In fact, these 20,000 tons of coal could only be given to the power plant for 10000 tons at most. The Material Bureau would still have to rip off the power plant!
The remaining 10,000 tons of coal were planned to be used to do favors and earn a lot of money. The coal market was in a tight spot, and the price set by the government would be a huge favor to any unit if it was tens or hundreds of tons, and this was under the condition that it was 60 to 70% higher than the price of the goods.
He could even make a huge profit with the bargaining method that was at least twice that of the 'White Market'!
As for bringing back the coal and earning back the money, it was already meritorious. Who cared about the tricks inside? The planned economy also had loopholes, not to mention that it had already loosened up.
Qin Shi had done a meritorious deed.
In the middle of the night after he arrived at Wutai Station, he spoke directly with the director of the bureau on the inter-provincial long-distance call that took more than three hours to connect. The leader had given Qin Shi the right to increase the price by at most 15%, but he had only used 6 points to settle it.
When they returned, they would reward him, raise his salary, and give him bonuses. If there were any reasonable requests, they could just mention them.
Why did she have to call him in the middle of the night?
If you used an urgent telegram, the other party would know the bottom line of your negotiation. In fact, the phone call was not very safe. The operator could hear you, but the dialect of the director (southern dialect) was a super password, so it was absolutely safe.
The director told him that he would need to stay at Wutai Station for at least half a month. Every week, a huge amount of money would arrive at the post office of MT County. He had to sign and sign it personally before it could be cashed.
"As long as you give me coal, I'll pay you in cash!”
This open-pit coal mine was designed to produce 600,000 tons per year and 50,000 tons per month. However, as long as the bonuses given to the employees were enough, it would not be a problem to dig an additional 10,000 to 20,000 tons per month.
This was all money. The additional tens of thousands of tons of coal was the "living coal and living money" that the company had a lot of control over. This customer was a typical "stupid person with a lot of money". They just needed to settle the railway.
This time, the coal mine was even more enthusiastic towards Qin Shi, who was in charge of the transaction." He stayed in the best room in the guest house and ate a big meal every day. He didn't have to pay for the receipt, so he could go back and claim for reimbursement.
He even suggested that he could ask for as many copies as he wanted. The coal mine knew that all the salesmen had a hospitality fee. Even if they didn't spend a single cent, the coal mine had to pretend that they had already spent it so that the other salesmen could get more benefits.
He was not polite about this. Compared to pocketing the floating points of the coal price, this was not a big deal.
The day before had finally come to an end. The next half of the week was to rest and do nothing. It was time to do something serious.
Xiang Meikuang wanted to borrow a three-wheeled motorcycle so that he could go to Wutai Mountain scenic area and stay there for two days. In the end, the coal mine gave Qin Shi a jeep with a local police license plate.
Who said that only the coal mine boss from a few decades later was powerful? At this time, the coal mine was also an awesome existence in the local area!
He also gave her a gas ticket and an envelope with 500 yuan in cash. He even let her play with it and open it as she pleased.
…….
"It's really cold! No wonder it's called Qingliang Mountain!"
Following the map of the city that he had obtained from the coal mine, he drove the car into the Wutai Mountain area. The cold hit him in the face!
Although Mount Wutai was located at the same latitude as Beijing, its climate was similar to that of a certain place in northeastern China. The temperature in the relatively low-lying areas was already around zero degrees during the day, and at night, it was even-10 degrees!
On the other hand, Qin Shi's destination was the top of Mount Wutai's middle platform. It was 2894 meters above sea level. It was a place where there was no summer, and the extremely low temperature in winter could reach-44 degrees Celsius!
There was a simple road leading to the top of the middle platform, and the road was basically submerged in snow.
He installed snow chains on the tires, pulled up the power bar, and went up with difficulty under the four-wheel drive. Zhang Nan spent more than two hours on the 10-kilometer road from Taihuai Town to the top of the platform!
There was not a single tree here. The top of the mountain was flat and huge. It was 150,000 square meters! Because the altitude was too high and the wind was strong, the snow was not as thick as the mountainside, revealing countless boulders and dense half-dried moss.
The cold wind was bone-piercing, and the clouds in the sky were getting lower and lower, as if it was going to snow heavily.
He parked the car under the leeward side of a huge rock, got out of the car, put on a military coat, and went around the huge rock. After passing a gentle slope that was only two to three meters high, he took out a telescope and observed a building on the other side of the mountain. There were five weather stations about 600 meters away.
"There should be someone on duty inside. If it snows, we can start work. Otherwise, we have to wait until night.”
Less than 30 meters away from the boulder, there was a large building ruin. It was said to be the former site of the Yanjiao Temple that was built a thousand years ago. It had been empty for at least 20 years, and almost all the buildings had been completely destroyed. This was Zhang Nan's goal.
Wait, wait quietly. He observed the weather station every once in a while. It was Monday, and the weather was cold. Not to mention tourists, even the staff on duty at the weather station did not come out.
At one o'clock in the afternoon, it was snowing heavily. It was impossible to see anything from twenty to thirty meters away. Moreover, it seemed that it would not stop for a while.
Braving the snow and carrying a backpack that had taken out all the unnecessary things, he came to the ruins and observed the surroundings. In less than ten minutes, he confirmed the specific target.
This was the base of an ancient tower. The components on it were completely gone and had been completely removed by people. They could only judge from the traces left on the ground that there was once a tower here. Ordinary people would not be able to recognize it.
He selected the center of the tower base and took out the tools to dry it.
It took more than an hour to move away the bricks and mud with an engineering shovel. In the middle, they had to go to the car and start the engine for a few minutes to prevent it from freezing completely.
In the snowstorm, people were exhausted and could not bear to return to the jeep. Fortunately, this jeep was equipped with a heater. After starting it, they turned on the heater to cool down for a while.
Back at the base of the tower, a large stone slab covered the middle. He used the hoe to dig a few times from the corner and found that the stone slab was only seven to eight centimeters thick. However, even so, this stone slab was not something that Zhang Nan could move alone.
Then he could only smash it open!
The cold wind howled around them. If they were not wearing professional winter mountaineering equipment, they would have been frozen to death! Through the goggles, the boulders 30 meters away were blurry. It was estimated that if someone threw a grenade here, nothing could be heard a few hundred meters away.
Hoe Axe's axe was extremely hard and tough. He didn't use too much force to chisel the stone slab a few times to test the feel.”The stone slab cracked open with a loud bang!
With a few more horizontal axes, the stone slab cracked into several pieces.
They were moved away piece by piece and cleaned up. At this time, the sky was already dark. He put on the helmet and turned on the portable lamp.
There was a thin layer of soil under the stone slab, and hundreds of square and round ancient coins appeared in his sight.
He directly picked it up and put it into the canvas bag that he had prepared. He did not care about the soil on the coins. Under the light, some of the coins were wiped off by the gloves, revealing a mesmerizing golden color!
Yes, this was gold!
The world's only batch of "Chunhua Yuan Bao back Buddha statue offering money" was right in front of him!
