Chapter 893: Finding the Water Source (1/2)
"Huh, why did the water stop?"
When he got up the next morning, Zhang Feng found that the water had stopped!
I was about to wash my face, but I turned on the faucet and found that there was not a drop of water.
This is strange, the tap water in the village and the city are not a system, but the villagers themselves from the Qinglong Mountain into the village, this tap water system has been used for more than ten years, there has never been a problem, today it is unprecedented to stop the water.
At this time, not only did Zhang Feng discover the problem of water outage, but even most of the villagers found it earlier, but everyone had to help harvest the vegetables in the field, so they didn't have time to pay attention to it for the time being.
However, the uncle, as the head of the village, could not see it, and immediately checked up along the water pipe in the village, hoping to check the place where the water pipe failed.
As he walked, the village chief came to the door of Zhang Feng's house, saw that Zhang Feng had gotten up, and hurriedly grabbed his strong man.
"Xiaofeng's water stopped today, if you're okay, go into the mountain with me to have a look!"
"Eh, uncle, wait, I'll wash my face first!"
Zhang Feng nodded, it was difficult for him to stop him if there was no water in the water pipe, because the pool in his house was full, and even if there was no water in the pool, would there still be a shortage of water in the ditch in the backyard or the Moon Lake in front.
Although the water cannot be drunk directly, it is more than enough to wash the face.
"Wait, uncle, some of my tools!"
After washing his face, Zhang Feng said a word to the uncle, then came to the utility room, took a few tools for repairing water pipes, and quickly walked out.
"Hehe, it's a good thing that your kid is thoughtful, let's go quickly!" Seeing the repair tools on his back, the uncle nodded with satisfaction.
"Mom, my uncle and I went to repair the water pipes!"
Before leaving, Zhang Feng said to his mother,
"It's okay, you guys go!"
Wang Guilan was combing her hair, and when she heard it, she smiled and waved to her son.
As soon as I walked next door, I met my brother-in-law coming back with a cart full of buckets.
"Brother Jun, where are you going to get the water?" Zhang Feng asked Li Jun while busy moving out of the car.
"On the river beach upstream, the water there is very good, and it can be drunk directly!"
Zhang Feng nodded, the water quality there is really good, I remember that some time ago, the relevant departments came to measure, and it can fully meet the national drinking water standard.
"Xiaofeng, you go and get busy first, I'll let the staff help carry this water later." Seeing that the uncle was still waiting on the side, Li Jun hurriedly said.
"Okay, Uncle and I will go first!"
Bidding farewell to Brother Jun, Zhang Feng and Uncle continued to walk upstream along the thick water pipe.
"Uncle, we must have used tap water in our village for more than ten years, right?" Looking at the rusty water pipes on the side of the road, Zhang Feng asked Uncle.
"Of course, if I remember correctly, the water pipes in our village were repaired in 2000, and each family paid 500 yuan at that time!" the uncle nodded and recalled.
Hearing the five hundred yuan, Zhang Feng also remembered.
At that time, for the 500 yuan, the village was about to turn upside down.
Don't look at it now, 500 yuan doesn't seem to be much, but in 2000, everyone's salary was only seven or eight hundred yuan, and if you can have an income of two or three thousand yuan for planting land for a year, you can count it as a big family in the village, so 500 yuan is not a small amount of money for everyone.
At that time, Zhang Feng's family did not have a deposit of 500 yuan, and in order to pay this money, his father went to work on the construction site outside, and it took a month to get the 500 yuan.
"Uncle, the tap water source of our village is in the mountains, right?"
"Well, from here, you have to climb two more mountains!" the uncle nodded, and then pointed to the mountain peak not far away.
"So far?" Zhang Feng was a little surprised, and then continued to ask: "Then how did you get water from where in the first place, isn't it more convenient to get water from the Dabang River?"
"Do you think we want to get water from the Dabang River? Do you think about where the water from the Dabang River comes from?" Hearing Zhang Feng's words, the uncle couldn't help but roll his eyes.
"Oops, damn it, I almost forgot!" Zhang Feng patted his head embarrassedly.
The Dabang River is known as the mother river of Qingshan County, so it is needless to say that the Dabang River flows from the edge of the county, and almost all the sewage of the residents in the city was discharged into it, and the downstream water can still be drunk.
Fortunately, the Dabang River entered Qinglong Mountain out of the county seat, and after the replenishment and purification of mountain spring water in the mountains of Qinglong Mountain, the water quality became better when the Moon Lake was poured.
So ten years ago, no one dared to drink the water of the Tabang River.
But now it is different, the country is paying more and more attention to environmental protection, and the river water in the city has become clear again.
Especially since ten years ago, Qingshan County has invested tens of millions of yuan to build a sewage treatment system covering the county, and the Dabang River has finally gotten rid of its turbid state and gradually regained its beautiful color.
…………
The further he went, the more rugged the mountain road became, which had no effect on Zhang Feng, but the uncle was tired and out of breath.
"Uncle, why don't you wait for me here?"
"Alas, time is not forgiving, and it will be old in a blink of an eye!"
Hearing Zhang Feng's words, the uncle sat down halfway up the mountain, took out a cigarette from his pocket and lit it.
"Uncle, where are you old, look at your hair is still black and thick," Zhang Feng hurriedly comforted......
"Hehe, okay, you kid don't have to comfort me, I just have some feelings!" Uncle smiled and waved his hand, and then said to Zhang Feng: "You hurry up, see what is wrong in front of you, fix it if you can fix it, forget it if you can't fix it, I will find a professional person to repair it when the time comes." ”
"Uncle, then you rest here, I'll leave first!"
"Well, there you go!" the uncle waved his hand,
Saying goodbye to his uncle, Zhang Feng continued to climb along the valley to the top of the mountain, although the mountain road here is a little steep, but it is not difficult for him at all, since taking the gene solution, his physical fitness is super strong.
Walking on the mountain road, Zhang Feng seemed to have wind on the soles of his feet, on the rugged rocks, kept climbing and jumping, followed the water pipe, and quickly found the fault.
At this time, the water pipe in front of it is flowing with clear water, and there is a stone the size of a watermelon on the water pipe.
Zhang Feng guessed that it was the stone that rolled down from a height and broke the village's water pipe, which caused the village's tap water to stop.
It's not easy to find the leak, because it's an old-fashioned iron pipe, and there are no replacement tools in the tools you bring.
So what to do?
"It looks like it can only be tied with rubber skin and wire!"
Although this is only a palliative treatment, there is no replacement steel pipe in the village, so Zhang Feng can only do this.
When Zhang Feng barely repaired the leak, his body was already wet, like a chicken in soup.
Zhang Feng smiled bitterly, wiped the water stains on his body, packed up his tools, and prepared to go home.
