Zhao Yuemin received the advanced individual award, and instead of being able to rest for a few more days, he was assigned the task of going to the Jinshui area with the engineers of the Geological Exploration Department to look for oil and gas seedlings.

The distribution of oil and gas resources in the north of Shaohu Town has been fully discovered in the first half of the year. At present, the task of the bureau is to detect oil and gas seedlings in the direction of the Jinshui area on the south side of Shaohu Town and confirm the location of the reference well.

A reference well is a small number of regional special exploration wells deployed for the purpose of obtaining data in order to find out the stratigraphic sequence, regional geology and petroleum geological characteristics of sedimentary basins in the early stage of oil and gas regional exploration. Only when the oil is drilled out of the benchmark well can the derrick be erected on a large scale for paving drilling and oil production.

At this point, Qin Hai, an engineer of the Geological Exploration Department, led the team, plus the members of the drilling team and the material supply department, a total of eight people were ready to go and began to carry out field exploration tasks.

Zhao Yuemin brought college student Liu Guoguang as his deputy. As a team leader, he still respects young people with knowledge and culture, and hopes to give Liu Guoguang more training opportunities.

The Jinshui area has complex terrain and is basically inhuman, with lakes, swamps, low hills, mountain forests, and it is said that wolves are still infested at night, so in general, nearby residents rarely go there.

Dressed in blue labor clothes and yellow suede shoes, the drillers got into the jeep with their bags, drawings and instruments on their backs and drove to the Jinshui area.

"That's it...... Let's get down, everybody. ”

Qin Hai jumped out of the jeep, beckoned the team members to come down, and instructed the team members to carry all the baggage on their backs.

"There are two packages here, one big and one small." Qin Hai looked at the thin Liu Guoguang with a smile, pointed to the trunk of the jeep and said, "College student, which one do you carry?" ”

Liu Guoguang looked at the two packages, one large and one small, with a difference of two or three times in size, and said with a smile: "Qin Gong, can I take that small one?" ”

"You want to take the small one?" Qin Hai asked again.

"Qin Gong, I'm not selfish, you represent the organization, the organization asked me to choose, and I chose it." Liu Guoguang hurriedly explained.

"Of course, I'm just letting you think it through. Do you want a small one? Qin Hai asked with a smile, "This small package, the things inside, are a bit dangerous." ”

"Dangerous?" Liu Guoguang pursed his lips, he didn't believe it. According to his understanding, this geological exploration is nothing more than some shovels, shovels, oil detectors and the like, what is the danger? In the past few days, I have to walk mountain roads and hills, and I am weak, so it is naturally easier to choose a small bag.

For fear that Qin Hai would regret it, Liu Guoguang snatched the small bag and said, "I'm fine." ”

Qin Hai and a few other old geological explorers looked at each other, and said with a malicious smile:

"Okay, college student, since you're willing to carry this explosive bag. Then let's go. ”

Explosives packs?

Liu Guoguang's hand almost loosened, and he touched the package again, his face turned pale.

"Can you do geological exploration without an explosives bag?" Qin Hai said humorously, "And we can't bring less, to put it mildly, where we are going, where we are blown up." ”

"Then we've become a sapper platoon?" Zhao Yuemin said.

"Almost." Qin Hai said, "At present, domestic oil exploration generally uses geophysical artificial seismic methods. The explosion of explosives is used to generate the epicenter, and with the help of seismic wave reflection in the seismic layer, the seismogram is constructed by instruments. The formation is then determined to see if there is oil in the formation. ”

Qin Hai shook the mud on his shoes and said with a smile: "However, many fellow villagers don't understand what we do. When he saw us planting explosives in the wheat field, he scolded. However, we also understand them, the crops that have just been planted have been blown up dozens of meters into the sky, and they are always a little distressed. ”

Zhao Yuemin opened the thermos cup and took a sip of water, and said, "Qin Gong, to put it mildly, if I am a farmer, I will also scold." Your drilling team, except for blowing up the crops, can't you do something good for your farmer friends? ”

"We're not just blowing up the crops." Qin Hai helped his glasses and said seriously,

"Sometimes, we blow up the fish pond as well."

Zhao Yuemin was drinking water, and when he heard this, a mouthful of water squirted out.

"Land exploration and burial of explosives, we commonly call ground artillery. If you are exploring lakes and oceans, then fire guns in the water. Qin Hai pointed ahead, "It's this kind of lake, buried with explosives, as soon as it is detonated, it is called a spectacular, white water column rises directly from the ground, and the fish at the bottom of the water are blown up, like a goddess scattering flowers." What crucian carp, big carp, fell from the sky with a bang, and the nearby villagers ran to pick up the fish, and we have to thank us. ”

The crowd laughed.

However, when Liu Guoguang knew that he was carrying an explosives bag, he said that he didn't want to learn from Dong Cunrui, but Zhao Yuemin volunteered to take the package and let Liu Guoguang carry the tent in the team.

A group of people walked for seven or eight hours over the hills and across the creek, using wooden sticks as trekking poles.

"Climb over this hill again, and we'll be there." Qin Hai pointed ahead and said.

The drilling team began to climb the mountain, and before they were halfway there, an accident occurred in the team. When Liu Guoguang was climbing the mountain, he fell and accidentally dropped the package carrying the tent of the whole team into the cliff.

When Qin Hai heard the news, his face turned green. At this time, it was getting late, and the mountain wind was biting.

The tent that was supposed to camp on the mountain was lost, what should the whole team do?

Liu Guoguang looked at a loss, and said tremblingly: "Qin Gong, I will do a profound review, a profound review......"

"Deep review?" Qin Hai frowned, "I think the lives of the whole team will be reviewed by you." Now it's so dark and there's not enough light to go down. Without a tent to shelter from the wind, I can't carry it at all with only the cotton clothes and sleeping bags on my body! ”

"It's really not good, everyone squeeze it." Someone suggested.

"Squeeze?" Qin Hai responded unceremoniously, "It's zero in the middle of the night on this mountain, I'm afraid you'll freeze before dawn." ”

Qin Hai's words made everyone in the team have worried looks on their faces.

"Qin Gong, this is a problem with the people of our drilling team." Zhao Yuemin stood up and said, "Don't worry, I will give an explanation to the team, so that everyone can have a place to spend the night at night." ”

Qin Hai looked around: "There are no caves around here......"

"Qin Gong, aren't we carrying a woodcutter?" Zhao Yuemin's eyes showed composure and calmness, "Let's split three thicker tree trunks first, and I'll make an Indian-style spire shack for everyone." ”

Zhao Yuemin recently won the advanced individual in the bureau, so his words still carry a lot of weight. Soon, the team worked together to cut down three thicker tree trunks. Zhao Yuemin built these three tree trunks into a triangular shack as a beam. Then I found some thick tree trunks and arranged them neatly to cover both sides. Then, put a layer of large branches and grass on the outer surface of the shack to cover all the gaps, and then, starting from the bottom of the shack, layer on top of each other. In the semi-middle waist of the shack, a single beam is propped up.

He dug up some earth with a sapper shovel, covered the outer surface of the branches and grass, and explained to the crowd:

"Pressing the soil prevents branches and grass from being blown away."

Soon, a sturdy triangular roof shack was erected.

Qin Hai personally went to the shack to lie down and tried it, and exclaimed: "Not bad, not bad." Sheltered from the wind and rain, it is stronger than the tent. ”

"Yuemin, you're such a generalist." Qin Hai's face was overjoyed, "You saved the lives of the team members, I must report to the bureau again when I go back and give you a reward." ”

While the sky was not completely dark, Zhao Yuemin and his team members hurried to make a similar shelter, and just eight people could sleep.

At night, the team members set up a stove on the mountain, cooked some noodles, and everyone was also very tired, and after eating a full stomach, they fell asleep.

The night wind whistled, and suddenly, a terrible wolf howl was heard in the mountains.

"Whew-"
