C2069 Quarry Meeting
Two days passed quickly and quickly, but also as if it had been a long time. The same two days were very short for some people, as if it had passed in the blink of an eye. However, for some people, two days were extremely long. It was as if countless years had passed. The short two days were also a kind of torment for the people here.
During these two days, Wang Xiao had seen some hard work die with his own eyes. Some people were beaten to death. Some of them were exhausted, while others died of illness. A huge collapse had occurred in one of the mines, causing more than fifty people to die. If this kind of accident happened in the outside world, it would definitely attract the attention of the society. It was unknown how many people would be punished.
But what happened here was so ordinary. It was as if the people who died were not dozens of people but dozens of ants. Seeing so many people die, Wang Xiao's heart felt heavy. However, there was nothing he could do. Even though Wang Xiao really wanted to help those people, he really wanted to save them, he didn't want them to die. However, his abilities were limited. He couldn't help everyone here.
One day, when he appeared here again, he would appear with the aura of a sovereign descending upon the world. At that time, Wang Xiao would be able to save all the hard work in this place. But now was not the time.
Although there was a cave that collapsed, causing dozens of people to die, However, the higher ups of this sect still did not send anyone to check it out. The hard workers couldn't just casually talk about it. If anyone dared to talk about it, They will be executed. Under the orders of the upper management, the hard laborers did not dare to casually discuss this matter. After all, this matter concerned their life and death. They didn't want to die yet.
This afternoon, everyone in the mine would gather in the mountain valley and listen to Baili Xi's words. Baili Xi was the supervisor here. He was in charge of all the small matters here. With such a big accident, dozens of coolies died, so he had a meeting.
Although the coolies were not as good as pigs and dogs in their eyes, they were still human lives. Dozens of people died at once, making everyone panic. He had to say something to calm everyone's emotions.
Some of the hard workers were already very tired from working at night and wanted to sleep a little longer. However, not long after the afternoon, they were all woken up. Amidst the complaints, everyone had to get up. Although they still wanted to rest and did not want to listen to Baili Xi's nonsense, the people above had already spoken, so they had no choice but to go.
Wang Xiao walked out of the independent room and came to the large cabin. He saw countless hardworking people getting up one after another. These hardworking people all seemed very dissatisfied. "Really? What meeting? Is it interesting?"
A laborer complained, "Even if there are meetings every day, it's not fun. " It doesn't mean anything to him if we keep having meetings at all times. Accidents that should happen will continue to happen. As long as the higher-ups don't take this matter seriously, the collapse will continue to happen. "
Sigh! "
Another coolie sighed. "Forget it," he said. Don't complain, even if it collapses, those higher-ups can still safely leave with their powerful abilities. They are not in any danger of life, so why would they care about this matter "
Wang Xiao remembered that when he first came here, Tenth Cave had collapsed once. However, he didn't expect that after a few days, the other caves would collapse, and the situation was very serious.
What the coolie said was right. In fact, this place often collapsed, but it didn't attract much attention. The biggest reason was that even if the cave collapsed, it wouldn't be able to kill those Profoundness Rank Master-hand warriors. All the managers here were at least at the Late Period of Profoundness Rank realm, close to the Early Period of Earth Rank realm. It was very difficult for an expert of this realm to kill them if the cave collapsed, unless the entire cave collapsed. However, this was impossible.
Since the collapse of the cave could not kill them, they naturally would not care about these things. Let nature take its course. In any case, they were not the ones who died. They did not have the slightest sense of danger.
"Us coolies have a tough life." Huang Nineteen sighed and muttered to himself, "Forget it, let's not talk anymore nonsense. Better get ready quickly and go to the valley to listen to Baili Xi's lecture."
"Tch!"
At this time, Huang Shijiu said with an indifferent tone. "What's the use of lecturing? It's worse than a chicken leg. F * ck, instead of nagging for a long time, he might as well give us a chicken leg. "
That's right, that's right.
Countless people nodded, indicating that what Huang Shi said was very reasonable.
"All of you stop talking nonsense, hurry up and move. If you go late later, you will be able to escape. Be careful of being punished by Baili Xi. Huang Eighteen said with dissatisfaction.
Everyone sped up. Although they were complaining, they were just saying it. In fact, they had to go, and they couldn't be late. They couldn't complain in front of the higher ups.
"Big brother Yu Qiang, you're up." When Huang Eighteen saw Wang Xiao come out, he immediately asked with a smile. Looking at his smiling expression, it was as if he regarded Wang Xiao as a lord.
"En, go and listen to what Baili Xi has to say." Wang Xiao said.
"What is there to hear? Baili Xi is not a good person. He is also a very black-hearted person. If you say he is cruel and merciless, none of the managers here are good." Huang Eighteen said with dissatisfaction.
Everyone nodded solemnly, indicating that Huang Eighteen's words made sense. They also thought so.
"Be careful of the ears on the wall. There are some things you can't say, and don't say them. Misfortune comes from the mouth." Wang Xiao said with a serious expression. Huang Eighteen was really too insensible. How could he say something like that so casually?
What if someone complained about it or someone outside heard it? He would definitely die.
"Big Brother Yu Qiang, thank you for your teachings. I understand." Huang Eighteen said in fear. Just now, he had only said those words because he was angry for a moment. When he calmed down, he felt that he had made a mistake and had been careless.
"Hurry up."
After saying that, he turned around and left the warehouse, walking towards the valley.1
"Brothers, let's hurry up. Brother Yu Qiang has gone out. We have to keep up with him." Seeing that Wang Xiao had already walked out of the warehouse, Yellow Eighteen shouted.
Under his lead, the two hundred laborers moved very quickly. They were all ready very quickly and followed behind Wang Xiao. After walking out of the warehouse, they saw a dense crowd of people in front of the valley. The large warehouse was built at the bottom of the cliff of the mountain valley. In front of it, there was a sea of people.
At a glance, there were at least a few thousand people standing in the cove. One must know that there were dozens of caves here, big and small. There were five hundred people in the Tenth Cave alone. However, because the Tenth Cave was the biggest mine here, there were five hundred of them. The remaining dozens of caves also had two to three hundred people or dozens of people.
The crowds that were moving shoulder to shoulder looked like a surging tide. At this moment, the scene in front of them was even more magnificent than when they would go to work in the morning.
The sound of footsteps that were as dense as locust could be heard. The scene of people moving was like the waves on the surface of the sea. They saw a group of experts standing on a tall rock in front of the cove.
Baili Xi stood in the middle. Eight men and another unfamiliar man stood on his left and right respectively. Baili Xi looked at the countless people who were working hard. His eyes showed a look of contempt.
"The people of Tenth Cave, all of them are standing behind me." A voice was heard. Fei Xiong and Yin Hong were waving their hands. When the people of Tenth Cave saw the two of them, they stood behind them.
Captain Sha Qiandao was standing on the stage, enjoying the treatment of his captain. The dozens of people standing on the stage were all above the rank of captain. Vice Captain was not qualified to stand on the stage.
"Hurry up, hurry up, don't be slow." Fei Xiong scolded.
Yin Hong also scolded along with Fei Xiong. He scolded the hard labor of Tenth Cave and asked them to be faster. Only at this time could they show off their leader's prestige.
The remaining cave Vice Captains also asked the coolies under their command to stand behind them. Under the arrangements of the cave leaders, in less than ten minutes, thousands of people stood in their respective teams.
It seemed that this was not the first time that a meeting had been held here, and it had definitely been held before. Therefore, although the speed of the people was not fast, it was not slow either. Thousands of people stood in the mountain valley, and there was no sound at all.
Everyone looked at the leaders on the high platform, waiting for them to speak. Moreover, everyone was very envious of these higher ups. If they could become the higher ups here, or if they could be used by these higher ups, their future would be much better.
Wang Xiao stood together with Huang Da and the others. A group of Yellow Rank coolies stood beside him. Currently, the Yellow Rank coolies of Tenth Cave were led by Wang Xiao. Everyone wanted to build a good relationship with him.
Huang Da originally wanted to talk to Wang Xiao and establish a good relationship with him. However, after seeing that no one was speaking among the thousands of people here, he held back his impulse, worried that he would offend the higher ups here.
Standing in the coolie troop below, Wang Xiao also raised his head to look at the people on the platform. Among the higher ups, there were Late Period of Earth Rank Master-hand, Middle Period of Earth Rank, Early Period of Earth Rank and even Late Period of Profoundness Rank.
The higher ups were full of vigor and aggressiveness, and their team was also extremely powerful. With such a powerful team and so many experts, if they were in the outside world, they would be able to dominate a region and become the overlord of a region.
One had to bear in mind that before Wang Xiao became a Celestial Rank warrior, the Huaxing Gang was not as powerful as the group of people above. However, at that time, the Huaxing Gang occupied the entire Qingcheng City, as well as the military provincial capital, and became a big shot.
All the hard-working men looked at those people on the high platform in awe. Anyone who stood on the high platform was someone who held the power of life and death, an existence that could kill them.
Baili Xi looked at the hard laborers below with a serious expression. It was unknown whether his serious expression had become extremely serious because of the collapse or because he wanted to show off, so he deliberately put on this expression.
Everyone patiently waited for Baili Xi to speak. What would Baili Xi say? After glancing at everyone below with a serious expression, Baili Xi seemed to be about to speak.
At this time, the eight of them spoke first. "Everyone, the reason why we gathered here today is because Sir General Manager has something to say. Let us give you the most enthusiastic applause. Please speak, Sir General Manager."
Papapapa!
The eight of them applauded with all their might. It was as if only his applause could show his respect for Baili Xi. The higher ups on the stage also immediately clapped, as if they wanted to use the most enthusiastic applause to invite Baili Xi to speak.
However, the hardworking people below did not have such high passion. They only clapped a little bit.
"Brothers, let's applaud, welcome Lord Chief's lecture, welcome Lord Chief's lecture for all of us." The Vice Captain Flying Bear kept applauding with a very hardworking expression. Yin Hong also clapped along with it.
