Hua Wen had something to hide from Didak and Bo Fei, but in the eyes of Didak and Bo Fei, the information disclosed was enough.
Didak looked at Hua Wen and said seriously: "Hua Wen, since you manage the mine...well, part of it, can you hire the two of us into the mine?"
"Why, you two didn't sign up?" Hua Wen asked in surprise.
"Uh, um, we arrived a little late and didn't happen to register." Didak scratched his head in embarrassment and explained.
"That's it..." Hua Wen frowned, "To be fair, I do have the right to hire you two, but the problem is that the number of people is enough, and hiring you again will be an excess. And I can't cross out other people's names. , changed it to the two of you. Mine owner Waltz investigates this kind of thing very strictly... "
As Hua Wen kept talking, Didak and Bo Fei raised their heads and asked: "Does it mean that even though you manage the mine, you can't help us?"
"This..." Hua Wen waved his hand, "Don't worry, let me think about it, there will definitely be a way, um, there will definitely be a way..."
For Hua Wen, to improve his status, he needs to be recognized by others. If you cannot help your friends, you will not only feel guilty, but also feel defeated. Therefore, he really wanted to help Didak and Bo Fei solve the problem.
Hua Wen thought seriously for a moment, then suddenly his eyes lit up and he said to Didak and Bo Fei: "If you really want to find a job, I do have a way. But I have to say first, I will ask you next The work you do... may be a bit special, you'd better think about it before you decide."
"What, is the salary very low?" Didak asked what he was most concerned about.
"No." Hua Wen shook his head, "Not only is it not low, it is also very high, twice as high as the miners. Well, the miners I am talking about refer to the miners in Mine No. 13. If compared with other mines, it is a whole three times."
"So high!" Bo Fei exclaimed, "Isn't that Rijie?"
"No, it's Rijie." Hua Wen said.
"What's so special about that?" Didak asked, frowning in confusion.
"Um..." Hua Wen hesitated for a moment and did not answer directly. Instead, he changed the subject and asked Didak and Bo Fei: "Are you two running fast?"
"Uh, running... not bad." Didak said vaguely.
"Faster than ordinary people." Bo Fei said.
"Okay then, just go and try. If it doesn't work, think of a way. Remember my words, pay attention to safety." Hua Wen said seriously.
"What kind of job is it?" Didak and Bo Fei asked incomprehensibly.
Hua Wen still didn't answer, but looked into the distance, waved his hand, and shouted to someone: "Captain Sean! Captain Sean! Please come here!"
"Ta-ta-ta..."
Accompanied by footsteps, a middle-aged man about forty years old came over.
I saw that the other person's skin was dark, with traces of age on his face, and heavy bags under his eyes, as if he had never slept. A pair of eyes were bloodshot, and his identity exuded some kind of pungent smell, and he didn't know what it was contaminated with.
What is particularly eye-catching is the opponent's left hand, which is wrapped in a thick white cloth, as if it was accidentally injured due to some operation.
The other party walked up to Hua Wen, looked a little cold, looked up at Hua Wen and asked: "Captain Hua Wen, what's the matter?"
"Well, that's it, Captain Sean. I happen to have two people here, they are in good shape and they are not slow in running. Do you think I can try it at your place?" Hua Wen asked.
The man named Sean raised his eyes and glanced at Didak and Bo Fei: "Are these two?"
"right."
"Then let's take a look first. After all, although the salary for my job is indeed high, not everyone can do it." Sean said, without continuing the conversation with Hua Wen, and turned to Didak and Bo Fei and the two of them asked, "You two run very fast, right? Then let me test you. Is there no problem?"
"No problem." Didak and Bo Fei shook their heads.
"Very good." Sean straightened his expression, raised his uninjured right hand, pointed at a rock about a hundred meters away, and said, "Have you seen that rock? I'll count to three, and you guys will run over with all your strength. , and then run back and let me see your speed."
"Okay." Didak and Bo Fei nodded.
Sean was not polite and immediately started counting: "One!"
"two!"
"three!"
"run!"
"Brush it!"
Didak and Bo Fei immediately ran towards the rock in front with all their strength, and ran back panting heavily. They were almost evenly matched - although they were hungry, they exerted their full strength, which was not embarrassing.
After looking at it, Sean nodded and said: "It seems that you can run pretty well. Although it is not too fast, as long as you are smart, there will be no problem. Well, come with me, I will take you there. The second test. If you pass, stay, and your salary can be calculated today, which is three times that of other places. If you fail, or are frightened, just get out of here. Otherwise, you will have no relationship with anyone. use!"
After speaking, Sean walked away without looking back.
Didak and Bo Fei turned to look at Hua Wen.
Hua Er waved his hand and gave the two of them a signal to follow him, and said: "Didak, Bo Fei, I can only help you here, the rest is up to you. If you can't do it, then I will There is no other way.”
"Don't worry about us, Hua Wen, we will work hard to stay." Didak said confidently.
"That's right, don't underestimate us." Bo Fei agreed.
"Then I wish you good luck. I still have things to do. I'll talk to you then." Hua Wen said.
"OK, bye."
"goodbye!"
The three people waved their hands and Hua Wen left. Didak and Bo Fei chased Sean.
…
About half an hour later, Didak and Bo Fei followed Sean to the back of the hill where Mine No. 13 was located.
Here, there are more than a dozen temporary tents standing, which can be regarded as a simple camp.
The air in the camp was filled with an indescribable pungent smell, which was exactly the same as Sean's, making people frown.
As if Sean was used to it, he led Didak and Bo Fei straight through the camp, turned a corner, and walked to an open space two hundred meters away.
There are more than a dozen people here who have been waiting for a long time. They all seem to be here for the test like Didak and Buffy, and their eyes are excited and nervous.
Not far from them, there were a lot of boulders, and further away, there was a simple temporary bunker built, which was half an earth wall, and I don't know what it was used to block.
Sean first asked Didak and Poffy to join the waiting team, and then shouted to the side: "Barry!"
A young man appeared and solemnly handed two iron boxes with handles into Sean's hands.
Under the curious gaze of everyone, Sean gently placed the two boxes on the ground, opened the one on the left first, and took out a candle as thick as a baby's arm from inside.
Um, no, that's not a candle.
Didak's eyes widened.
He could tell that it was indeed not a candle, because he had never seen a black candle before - it was a solid iron shell wrapped around the object. Moreover, the part of the object that resembles a candle wick is too long. It is more than 20 centimeters exposed and can wrap around the surface several times.
What exactly is this
Didak was confused.
