Chapter 334: Digging Out the Water

When the other members of the club saw the collective dispatch of the brigade headquarters, they seemed to smell something, and they also rushed to see the excitement.

Not to mention the others, Qiao Xiangbai is so nervous that his hands are trembling now, and his palms are sweaty.

He chose Xinyuan as the first well, this place has a water source, and the amount of water is large, so the reason why he chose this place is to make a good start and prove that he is indeed not lying.

However, this kind of cheating behavior is really exciting.

And Qiao Liu'an and his family didn't expect their old father to jump out to pick up the beam, so they didn't want to think about it immediately, picked up the hoe and went to dig until the water was dug out.

Qiao Liu'an and his family worked hard, and when the others saw this, they also followed to help.

They dug for about ten minutes, and a large stream of water gushed out, and a puddle of yellow water quickly gathered in the pit, which overflowed the ankles of the people in the pit in a blink of an eye.

The members who were still watching from the side were anxious when they saw it, and hurriedly picked up their hoes to help.

"Hurry up, dig the pit deeper. ”

"Quick, get rid of the dirt, and don't let the water run out. ”

"Out of the water!

……

The members were very happy and excited, and now the rice in the field was saved.

Qiao Xiang Bai Silly stood aside, with a smile on his face, but with a hint of confusion and disbelief, he dug it out so easily?

Qiao Yibing was also surprised, he didn't expect it to be really successful, he asked, "Is there still a water source in other places?"

The fields of the Takayama Brigade are scattered and divided into several areas, and they are basically terraced fields of different sizes along the mountain.

So it's useless to dig just one spring, you have to dig two or three of each one.

"Yes. Qiao replied to Bai, this time he was a lot more confident.

Except for a dozen people who were left to dig the puddle bigger, deeper, and reinforce the spring just now, the others rushed to other places.

The good news kept coming, and even if Qiao Jiayue was in the team, she could know in time where she had found the water source.

The good news is given to the children, who are not in class now, they are energetic and fast, aren't they the best messengers?

Although not every water source found produces a large amount of water, at least it relieves a lot of pressure on everyone.

Driven by the severe shortage of water, coupled with the strength of the large number of people, the Alpine Brigade spent two days and almost no break to dig out more than 20 large and small ponds.

And in order to reduce water evaporation, the alpine brigade reluctantly bought oilcloth and plastic sheeting, and made a shelter with bamboo, hay and other materials above the pond.

Shading can reduce the evaporation of water, and the evaporated water touches the oilcloth and plastic sheet above and condenses into water droplets and falls back into the pond.

Maybe this approach doesn't have much effect, but it's a good psychological comfort.

For the sake of water, they also fight.

After the water was available, the whole brigade, men and women, young and old, went into battle, holding water scoops, buckets and other containers, running back and forth in the fields.

One more scoop of water, and one more ear of rice will be filled, and this is a ration!

In order to clarify the responsibility, Qiao's father specially divided the labor, who is responsible for where, it is clear at a glance, and there will be no situation where someone is tired and half dead and someone is lazy.

Because the members of the club focused their energy on the fields, sweet potato fields, peanut fields, etc., and the growth was even worse.

But the rice in the field is more important, and the sweet potato is drought tolerant, but the peanut is afraid that it will not be able to cope with the task this year, but fortunately, there can be other ways to remedy it.

Although everyone is also distressed, these are really not as important as rice fields.

If you don't work hard, you won't be able to pay the public food, and if you want to apply for relief food, it's better to dream.

If it was so easy to apply for relief food, and the application was made in the first three years, and the situation at that time was not as serious as it is now?

The members of the Gaoshan Brigade were busy, and the brick kiln factories were stopped, and several large orders were pushed off for this purpose.

It's not the list that is pushed away, it's all money, and the members are distressed, but the rice in the field is all fate!

The members of the club get up early and water greedily at night, and they also work at night to watch the water, although it is very hard, but now the hard work is nothing, and the harvest is the last word.

At this time, the Changshan Brigade next door also heard the news that someone in the Gaoshan Brigade could find a water source and rushed to ask for help.

In the face of drought and reduced production, their Changshan Brigade Headquarters also had to put aside their internal struggles and deal with this difficulty together.

As a neighbor, the Alpine Brigade Headquarters naturally responded to it, and this was a good opportunity to enhance the reputation of the Alpine Brigade, how could you give it up?

Qiao Xiangbai was a little weak and didn't dare to respond directly, but Qiao's father told him not to worry, and then called Qiao Hongyuan to help.

He is in the third graduating class of junior high school, and now that the school is on vacation, and there is no news of the high school entrance examination, it is better to go out for a run than to stay at home.

Besides, letting Qiao Hong go far away to help Qiao Xiangbai find a water source is the most suitable candidate.

After all, he knows how to operate a digging truck, and he is also a smart person, so he will definitely not show flaws, and maybe he can help Qiao Xiangbai cover up his mistakes.

When Lu Aijun saw Qiao Hongyuan, he was surprised for a while, and he didn't think much about it, thinking that he was learning the kung fu of finding water from Qiao Xiangbai.

It's very difficult to learn a skill from a master these days, so it's really rare to have the opportunity to learn a job that others can't.

So Lu Aijun encouraged Qiao Hongyuan a few words, and continued to work in the fields.

Qiao Hongyuan made the process of finding water sources reliable in order for them, but he had done his homework on how to identify underground water sources according to topography, plants, animals, etc.

Not to mention the actual operation, anyway, it is a set of things, and it can definitely fool people.

After understanding this, combined with the function of the digging truck, it is easy to find a water source, and it can also block the mouth of some people who are suspicious.

Qiao Xiangbai was already a little weak-hearted, and when someone in the Gaoshan Brigade asked him how he found it, he smiled and didn't speak.

Others thought it was confidential and didn't ask any more questions, but who knew that he didn't know anything about it.

With Qiao Hongyuan's theoretical knowledge, Qiao Xiangbai didn't dare to write it down lazily, no matter what, what he remembered in his mind was his own.

In Qiao Hongyuan's hands, the digging truck was found to have more functions, and since it couldn't be dismantled, he always had to study this thing thoroughly.

So compared to Qiao Jiayue, who was only used to dig basements and underground passages, Qiao Hongyuan could do more.

Qiao Hongyuan followed Qiao Xiangbai for three days, found a lot of water sources, and received a lot of thanks.

The area of the Changshan brigade is larger, the span is also relatively large, and three days looks like a lot, and this is still the case that they only point to the water source and do not wait for the results of the excavation.

Although the soles of his feet were blistered and his shoes were almost worn out, Qiao Hongyuan thought it was quite interesting.

Some of the knowledge he usually learns from books can gradually be verified and practiced in this kind of walking, which not only deepens his impression, but also arouses his thinking.
