but.
Having said that.
No matter how clever the child was, Zhou Sese didn't think that Xingxing could come up with these words on her own.
But now is not the time to worry about this.
Zhou Sese held Diandian's little hand and said, "Then I'll take Diandian with me."
Diandian nodded his little head happily.
Xingxing grabbed her sister's other hand and said, "You can't go! Diandian, don't you listen to your brother?"
Diandian pursed her lips and frowned in embarrassment, "Brother, Mom really won't sell me out, why don't you go with me?"
Xingxing clenched her fists, "Then I'll go with you!"
He Dahua smiled carelessly beside her, "If she wants to sell it, neither of you two will be able to escape today."
Just saying.
The mother and her two children were sent out.
Zhou Sese took her two children and walked for more than half an hour to reach the coal mine.
Even the wild flowers and grass on both sides of the road were covered with a layer of coal dust.
Diandian pointed at the small wildflowers on the roadside and said, "Black flowers."
At this time.
Three workers who had just come out of the mine were walking towards us. They were covered in black with no other color on their bodies.
When the three of them saw Zhou Sese with two children, they thought it was some worker's wife and child who came to visit, and they smiled at Zhou Sese politely.
It’s better not to laugh.
This suddenly smiled.
Showing white teeth.
Diandian was so scared that she threw herself into Zhou Sese's arms.
The three of them saw the child was scared and had embarrassed expressions on their faces. "We just came down from the mine and didn't have time to wash our faces. We scared the child, sister-in-law. I'm sorry."
Zhou Sese held Diandian in her arms, gently rubbing the little guy's head with one hand.
I smiled and said to them, "The child is just shy of strangers. Are you going to have lunch?"
One of the young men shook his head and said, "I just came out from the mines all night and am going to have breakfast. Sister-in-law, if you're here to look for someone, just go to the front and ask the security guard. Let's wash our faces and go eat first."
The three of them waved to Zhou Sese and left side by side.
After the people walked away.
Dian Dian finally opened her big black eyes and said, "Mom, why are they even dirtier than I used to be?"
As Xingxing walked, she said sarcastically, "Otherwise, why would the people in the military compound call them charcoal blacks?"
Zhou Sese suddenly stopped.
Lower your eyes.
Looking at the stars, "Do you look down on their work?"
Xingxing snorted, "Everyone in the compound says that if someone has some other skills, they won't go down to the mines to make a living."
Zhou Sese frowned, "But some work always needs someone to do it."
Xingxing shook her head.
As they walked, they said, "That's not the case. We don't have to dig coal. We can burn firewood for heating. There are so many forests and so many trees in them. No matter how many years we burn, we won't burn them all."
Zhou Sese took a deep breath and asked, "Do you know how coal is formed?"
The stars turned around.
His eyes, which had always been filled with disgust, now showed a bit of curiosity and thirst for knowledge.
Obviously, there is some interest in this.
But the desire for knowledge soon disappeared.
Xingxing said with a half-smile, "You definitely don't know. Aunt Liu said that although you are nominally from a wealthy family, you grew up in a remote mountain village."
Aunt Liu.
Liu Hongxia.
It was indeed her.
Zhou Sese's eyes turned, and a smile appeared between his eyebrows. "I really know this. The coal you see now is the remains of plants in the woods millions of years ago, formed through countless compression and chemical reactions."
Xingxing shook her head. "How is that possible? How could coal be formed from plants?"
Zhou Sese shrugged her shoulders. "In addition, you think that the role of coal is only for heating, which is completely wrong. Coal is both an energy resource and a chemical resource. It can be widely used in industry, power generation, hot water heating, chemical raw materials, and building materials. It has a very wide range of uses."
When technology becomes more advanced in the future, coal resources can be used to synthesize various chemical products and even be used in cosmetics.
Although it has also brought countless environmental problems in the future, the role of coal in industrial development is unquestionable.
Xingxing was a little confused after hearing this.
I just felt that I could understand every word that Zhou Sese said, but I couldn't understand them when they were put together.
He didn't want to admit it, so he turned his face away and said, "You're bullying me because I'm young. Even if you're talking nonsense, I can't hear it. I don't believe what you're saying. You must be bluffing me."
Zhou Sese continued to move forward indifferently, "Believe it or not."
"Little guy, your sister didn't mean to scare you when she said these words."
A mature and steady voice came from the side.
Zhou Sese subconsciously turned her head to look over.
All I saw was a man who was about forty years old, wearing a neat silver-gray Zhongshan suit, with a Hero brand fountain pen in his right breast pocket, his hair neatly combed back, and a notebook in his hand.
It's a typical look of an intellectual from the 1980s.
Xingxing walked over and asked, "Didn't she lie to me? How did you know?"
The other person patted Xingxing's shoulder and said, "Because I'm a coal mine engineer, specializing in coal exploration across the country. Everything your sister said is right. Coal is a treasure left to us humans by nature millions of years ago."
