Chapter 129: The Spring Wells Up
PS: Thank you Brother Billip for the generous gift!
At this time, he was on the other side of the sea and lake, watching the progress of the project. At this time, the lake was basically drained, and there was still about half a meter deep in the center of the lake.
The excavator is busy scooping away the top layer of silt for the cart to pull away.
"This cart is good, pull it to my field!" a villager led the way to the mud truck.
These sludges are still very precious to them. The black soil basically represents fertility in the country, and the most representative is the black soil of the East and North Plains, which has created the granary of today's country.
"Don't fight, it's such a big lake, and there's a lot of mud. "A village cadre was at the scene to maintain order.
"You guys, don't squeeze over there, be careful of falling into ......"
Before he could finish speaking, he saw a young man's foot slip, and the whole person fell into the pile of mud dug by the excavator in horror, and the whole person was gone.
Everyone present was stunned, and Wei Hang was no exception, looking at the pile of mud.
"Damn, why don't you dig him out quickly?" Wei Hang shouted.
The young men who had gathered in the pile just now hurriedly jumped down and used shovels to dig up the pile of mud from the side. The guys on the lake were laughing heartlessly. Anyway, you can't die, when it's fun, there will be another laugh after tea and dinner in the future.
Soon, a clay figure was dug up, exactly as if it had crawled out of the dye vat.
"Hey, don't run! I'll take a picture of you first, you poss!" The photo was even more inconspicuous.
The guy who was running to clear up heard this and ran faster.
This time. Wei Hang and the others breathed a sigh of relief. Look at the boy running like he is flying, and you know that it is all right.
"There's sand down there. This time I saved a lot of effort. The village cadre spoke. According to Weihang's plan, the silt was removed and then a layer of grit was laid on top.
"It doesn't take much effort. Wei Hang found that the groundwater seeped in below, and it was no wonder that the salinity of the lake was not high. However, after being connected to the sea, it should not be very far behind, and there is no problem in cultivating scallops.
"There's a spring in the far north, and it's very big. "Someone told Weihang.
The northernmost corner of the lake. Relatively few people passed. It was also two young people who went there to play before, only to find such a spring. I heard that there was a large sea turtle squatting there, and later everyone carried the big sea turtle away and released it into the sea.
"The village chief should know too, right? What do they think?" asked Wei Hang.
Springs, especially freshwater resources, are important for coastal areas, especially those where there are no rivers.
Tangjia Village faces the sea and is backed by mountains. There is still no shortage of fresh water, and two small streams flow out of the mountains. However, people still prefer well water and spring water. The stream saw the light in the open air, and everyone didn't like it very much. It didn't feel very clean. The water of the stream is only used for irrigation, and no one drinks it.
"The village chief said to let you deal with it. The village cadre spoke.
It's not easy for them to dig a well here. Because the following is often salt water, which is not suitable for diet.
"Let's go. Check it out. "Weihang let people lead the way.
It took everyone half an hour to go around in a circle. It can be seen how big this is. At the northernmost point, you can see a bucket-thick spring of water gushing out, half a meter above the ground.
"Look, it's not a small amount of water!"
Wei Hang nodded, it was indeed good. In that case, you have to take advantage of it. A large public well can be built here, and if there is a shortage of water, everyone can use it.
"Above all, the water is clear and free of mud. The man introduced.
No matter how you look at it, this is a good spring water. Of course, now everyone has no problem with water, and they have no intention of getting involved in this spring. It is precisely in this way that the old village chief let Wei Hang deal with it, and if he discarded it, he felt that it was a pity.
"Organize everyone to build a big well here. In the future, the water demand of our village will definitely increase, and we may be able to use it when the time comes. Wei Hang said.
The village cadre nodded, and immediately contacted Lao Zhanggong and a group of people who had just finished the school playground to find it.
"There's still some hand-to-end work over there that isn't good, and it's going soon. Old Zhang Gong said. The playground cement is laid, and after two days of natural drying, it can be put into use. The flag-raising stand is still being built with fire bricks, and the flagpole is erected.
Yun Rulong asked for a row of flower beds to be built on both sides of the flag-raising stand to plant flowers and plants, and in addition, banyan trees, which are easier to grow, were also planted around the playground. When they grow up in the future, they can be used for everyone to enjoy the shade under the tree, and even the old village chief also praised Yun Rulong for their thoughtfulness.
Old Zhang Gong looked at the spring water, expressed his opinion and said: "The well may not be easy to build!"
The water is so big that it gushes out, can the well hold the spring water? Obviously not.
"What then?" Wei Hang frowned.
Naturally, he also knew that if he built a well, the spring water would gush out of the well. According to his idea, the well should be built higher and several holes in the well outcropping to allow the spring to flow out of the surrounding openings so that it would not overflow.
"It's not difficult! If you want to build a well, it's better to build a big pond. It can store water in normal times, but if it uses a large amount of water, it will not suddenly be unable to supply the spring. Old Zhang Gong said.
When Wei Hang heard this, his eyes lit up, and he said secretly: Sure enough, Jiang is still old and spicy!
"Well, let's build a big pool. In the future, anyone can come here to pick up water and go back, which is good. Weihang immediately agreed to this approach.
Lao Zhang Gong first measured it, then thought about it, and finally decided to build a large square pool, and left water outlets around the pool for everyone to take the water back. In order to create water pressure, he also specially prepared to build the pool a little higher.
"It may take a lot of materials, but for you kid, it should be a small matter. Old Zhang Gong said with a smile.
He made a list of building materials such as cement, red bricks, etc. The cost of building such a large pond is more than 20,000 yuan, and ordinary people cannot build it.
Wei Hang threw the list to the village cadre next to him, and he would give the money, but he didn't want to trouble himself, so he handed over the procurement to these people.
"Okay, leave it to me!" The village cadre didn't say a word, and immediately found a car in the village and ran to the town streets.
Lao Zhang Gong took people to clean up the place where the pool was planned to be built. Dig a part of it first, build a foundation, and then build a shaft. Build a pond outside the shaft so that the spring water is clearer and something settles.
"Regardless of the other personnel, get out!" Old Zhang Gong saw that so many people were watching, getting in the way, so he immediately drove people away, and even Wei Hang was not polite, so he asked him to look at the side, and not to hinder everyone's work.
At the bottom, a layer of bricks had to be laid to prevent creatures such as eels from getting in from underneath.
In the countryside, people hate it when the eel runs into a spring or a pool. Those things always inadvertently get into the water pipes, plug the water pipes, and cause no water to come out of the faucets in everyone's house.
"Hey, your eyes are on point, is the ground flat?" old Zhang Gong began to curse again.
The young men who followed him hurriedly worked hard to remove a layer of mud from the uneven places. This old guy is usually not very good, once he gets to work, he will scold him if he makes a mistake, and everyone is very unhappy anyway.
Wei Hang looked towards the pier and found that the fishing boat was actually moving and slowly leaving the shore.
At this time, the phone rang, Yun Rulong and they told sù Weihang, they went to sea to play, there is Daniel Zhang and them, it must be fine.
Wei Hang was also too lazy to pay attention, those guys asked him to go to sea before, he was too lazy to move, he didn't expect to bewitch Daniel Zhang and them together. These guys, after two or three days of picking up treasures, are addicted, do they really think they can pick up treasures every day? That's too naïve.
It's okay, let them hit the wall, don't always think that the treasure of the ocean is so easy to pick up.
"In the future, those excavators will work here, and they must be reminded to be careful, don't dig too close, it is easy to loosen the foundation here, understand?" said to Wei Hang.
"Okay, I'll talk to them when I get back. ”
As soon as Wei Hang finished speaking, a person hurriedly ran over, and shouted at the same time: "That big sea turtle has run ashore again!
Uh! Can't get rid of it? Could it be that this place is a treasure of feng shui, and you have to climb back and squat to defend it?
"That turtle is really big enough, and a person standing on it can crawl and walk, it's amazing. Someone said.
Hearing these words, Wei Hang was a little surprised. What kind of sea turtle is so powerful? The largest leatherback turtle has a record of thousands of pounds, which is very large. In the ocean, it is no problem to ask someone to swim, but it may be difficult to climb to the shore.
He hadn't seen the turtle before, and when he heard those people say it, he was already very suspicious. Since it's a turtle, how can you squat in a living spring?
In addition, there are only a few kinds of turtles, and he can't think of which one they are.
There are seven species of sea turtles living in the ocean: leatherback, loggerhead turtle, hawksbill turtle, olive green scale turtle, green turtle, ridley turtle and flatback turtle. All turtles are listed as endangered.
Leatherback turtles are more special, except for leatherback turtles, all turtles have shells. Leatherback turtles have a thick layer of oily skin on their body, showing 5 longitudinal ridges.
"That turtle may really be a thousand-year-old turtle. ”
Wei Hang scolded with a smile: "Thousand your heads! The longest life of a sea turtle is only a few hundred years, where is the thousand years?"
"Impossible! People say that there are 10,000-year-old turtles, but is it very surprising that thousand-year-old turtles are very strange?" A young man in the village disagreed with Wei Hang's statement.
Weihang was speechless, the thousand-year-old turtle, the 10,000-year-old turtle, are all symbolized by the people, because the turtle has a long life, everyone likes life and death, and pursues a long life of 100 years, so the turtle is regarded as a symbol of longevity, these thousands of years, it has been passed down to become a thousand-year-old turtle and a 10,000-year-old turtle, but in fact, the longest life of the turtle is only a few hundred years, which is already the longest known longevity on the earth.
"Let's go, go see the turtle, how it's crawled back again. Wei Hang said. (To be continued......)
