Chapter 618: The Importance of Fresh Water
Although it is known that a large number of pollutants are buried under the desertified land of Sand Reed Island. But no one could have imagined that the amount of pollutants would be so large. The engineering team transferred from the army was busy on the island for nearly a month.
Watching the polluted black soil pulled from the island every day, the people involved in the clean-up work really felt how harmful chemical pollutants are. The work responsible for cleaning up construction waste was also deeply shocked.
But what really shocked the engineering team was Zhuang Haiyang's ability to accurately find out where the pollutants were buried. If they were to search for it, it would be difficult to know that there were contaminants there, so they would have to dig up the entire island.
Li Bin, who is responsible for guiding the clean-up of pollutants, has also begun to believe that Zhuang Haiyang has a way to solve the problem of contaminated groundwater on the island. In fact, in the past few days when he was camping on Shawei Island, Zhuang Haiyang was not idle.
Dinghaizhu is used to sort out the groundwater veins of Shawei Island, and all the pollutants integrated into the groundwater are swallowed and cleaned up. Some of the sandy soil polluted by groundwater is also starting to dilute with clean groundwater gushing out.
It's just that on the surface, the desertified land has not changed much as before. The only thing that can be felt is that after a large number of pollutants are cleaned up, the people who stay on the island also feel that the air smells much better.
Considering the situation here, Zhuang Haiyang directly dispatched a team of nearly 100 people from the farm, drove two of the earliest customized salvage boats, and arrived safely on Shawei Island by sea. These people will also begin to garrison Sand Reed Island.
Looking at Zhu Junhong, who led the team, Zhuang Haiyang also said directly: "Junzi, I'm afraid you need to be responsible for the next thing here." First install and debug the monitoring equipment, and it just so happens that the house here is also cleaned up and ready to move in. ”
"Okay! It's just the job of managing the ranch, I'm afraid I don't know much about it!"
"You take care of it first! Later, if there is a suitable candidate, I will let him come and replace you. If you really can't bear your wife and children, I will take my sister-in-law over at that time. In that case, you won't feel lonely, will you?"
"That's it! I just think I can't manage such a big ranch. ”
Although Zhuang Haiyang also began to try to arrange some comrades-in-arms to management positions in the company under his command. But he also knows that many of his comrades-in-arms are not very good at doing this kind of management thing. So, these things need to be done slowly.
Fortunately, as far as the current situation is concerned, it is estimated that it will take a few months for Shawei Island to officially operate. Pollution control is followed by planning, and then the buildings needed for the ranch and the living quarters of the ranch personnel are built.
Secondly, the forest area where seabirds inhabit is also set up as a seabird sanctuary by Zhuang Haiyang. Even if it is leased, the ranch will strictly prohibit employees from disturbing the seabirds. With these seabirds, the island will be more lively.
As the transferred security team began to take over Sand Reed Island, the visitor center, which was originally empty and transformed, soon became the living area and station of the group. The purchase and installation of various equipment makes Shawei Island look the same every day.
Li Bin and others, who cooperated with pollution control, also felt very cordial when they saw Zhu Junhong and others who had just come over. Even if these people have already left the troops, they still go out for drills every morning, which makes the officers and men from these units feel cordial.
Even Li Bin laughed and said: "If you don't wear military uniforms, I doubt that you are in a certain naval station!"
"We're all used to it! Except for me, Lao Hong and the others have all served in the army for at least five years. It is naturally a bit difficult to change the living habits developed in the army in a short period of time. What's more, they are also used to such a life. ”
At least I know that those non-commissioned officers who have retired from the Navy have made the company under your name a priority to apply for. Compared to other companies, you can adapt faster to your company!"
Unfortunately, my ability is still limited, and the number of retired non-commissioned officers I can recruit each year is also limited. Fortunately, when this ranch is officially put into operation, it is estimated that it will also be able to accommodate Bailai employees. So, I'm going to work hard to make money!"
The placement of non-commissioned officers who have retired from the Navy is not a secret among those who know Zhuang Haiyang. In fact, in addition to the naval base where Zhuang Haiyang served before, the rest of the naval bases have also recommended retired non-commissioned officers to him in recent years.
As the leader of the base, who doesn't want their subordinates who have changed jobs and retired to find a better job?
With the arrival of two salvage boats, there are also ordered motorboats and patrol boats. The security team members who were assigned to come over also began to carry out routine patrols. The appearance of these boats also surprised passing fishing boats.
Fortunately, these fishermen have rarely dared to go to Shawei Island in recent years. First, the government does not allow it, and secondly, there are rumors that Sand Reed Island is very dangerous. If you stay on the island overnight, you won't wake up the next day.
Now that Shawei Island has become so lively, the surrounding fishermen are gradually realizing that this island has been leased. Some time ago, ships came and went, and it is said that they were also cleaning up the chemical garbage and pollutants buried on the island.
Upon hearing the news, the fishermen who had been fishing nearby in the early years naturally clapped their hands and exclaimed: "This should have been done a long time ago! Those factory owners should have been pulled out and shot." Because of them, the nearby fish and shrimp are all dead. ”
It is said that none of the bosses who set up factories on Shawei Island in the past received a good death. Some of the people who worked in the factories on the island back then are said to have incurable diseases, and they deserve it!"
The damage to the coastal ecology has directly affected the income and economic resources of the surrounding fishermen. In the past, they could fish nearby, but they had to go deep into the open sea. Not to mention the more fuel is spent, and the greater the risk of going to sea.
Now that the government has finally stepped in to address the pollution of Sand Wai Island, fishermen are naturally looking forward to it. It's just that they all know that even if the polluted things on the island are cleaned up and the damaged marine ecology is restored, they don't know when it will be.
On the other hand, Zhuang Haiyang, who lives on Shawei Island, dives into the surrounding sea water every morning and evening, constantly releasing Dinghai pearl water to improve the surrounding marine ecology in order to breed more marine life.
The freshwater underground water veins around Shawei Island have also been expanded a lot by Zhuang Haiyang. It's just that the island has been polluted for a long time, and even if Dinghaizhu has a miraculous pollution control effect, it is very difficult to recover in a short time.
Soon after moving into Shawei Island, Zhu Junhong proposed: "The ocean, the freshwater problem on the island, I am afraid that it must be solved as soon as possible." Fresh water is always transported from inland by boat, which is expensive and cumbersome. ”
"I will solve this problem as soon as possible. In the past two days, you have carefully cleaned and disinfected all the water transportation and management in the living area. In the future, I will look for a clean groundwater source and start drilling my first freshwater well. ”
"The groundwater here can really be used?"
"Don't worry, wait for the groundwater well to come out and send the water for testing, won't you know?"
"Okay then! I'll take care of that. ”
"That's right, take advantage of the time now, and put the water supply system directly into the desertified area. Taking advantage of the self-circulation effect of the island's groundwater, we strive to eliminate the pollutants left in the ground as soon as possible. Soon I will buy some silt over for a large area covering. ”
"That's not a small project!"
"It's okay! This kind of thing can be done once and for all with just one investment. and so on clean and harmless silt, successfully covering the sandy land. In the future, we can start planting forage grass and cultivate the pasture first. ”
"Okay, if there's anything you need to arrange and explain, just remember to tell me. ”
Taking advantage of the fact that the army's engineering team was still on the island, Zhuang Haiyang also divided the desertification area into several areas according to the ranch design and plan, and built a sidewalk suitable for vehicular traffic. It's just that it looks like the desertified area still looks desolate.
Occasionally, when there is a strong wind, the entire desertification area will become sandy and windy. In order to avoid further aggravation of desertification, Zhuang Haiyang also purchased a large amount of mud, prepared to pull it by boat, and then used mud trucks to carry out sprinkler irrigation operations.
The desertified land is covered with mud, and the groundwater that has begun to be purified is used to slowly transform the desertified land into land suitable for pasture growth. After a long time, the desertification situation can be effectively alleviated.
Considering the future water supply for living quarters and pastures, the construction company, which had previously been responsible for cleaning up construction and household waste, soon received new construction orders. At the location designated by Zhuang Haiyang, a large water tower was built.
For such a project, the construction company naturally did not say a word, and immediately dispatched elite soldiers and strong generals, and completed the construction of the water tower in just half a month. The corresponding water supply pipeline system has also been largely laid.
In view of the increasing supply of fresh water on the island every day, Zhuang Haiyang directly approached Li Bin and dispatched two excavators. Drive to a pasture not far from the seabird habitat and dig according to the location designated by Zhuang Haiyang.
When the excavator dug to a position of less than two meters, looking at the sudden gushing of groundwater, like a fountain rising into the sky, Li Bin and others who were standing nearby also said with a surprised face: "Such a big flow?"
"Actually, the groundwater resources of Shawei Island are still very rich! There are no pollutants around this water source, and it is unlikely that it will be polluted.
Wait a minute, I will have you take a sample for testing to see if it is suitable for drinking water. If you can, install the water tower diversion point here. In a short period of time, it should be no problem to supply water to the whole island. ”
"Awesome! You can't admire your water skills!"
After staying on the island for more than a month, Li Bin also admired Zhuang Haiyang's skills the more he knew. Even if this water has not been tested yet, Li Bin feels that there should be no problem with this drinking point.
Unlike the previous excavation point, the groundwater spewed out from this drinking point looked much clearer, and there was no black water gushing out of the previous one.
If the groundwater in this location is drinkable, it will also play a very important role in improving the situation on Sand Rey Island.
Water is the source of life, and good and clean water can also purify a lot of pollutants. With plenty of fresh water resources, are you afraid that you won't be able to improve the other polluted groundwater on Shawei Island?
