Chapter 82: Digging a Well
The drought is severe. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 Although the Info Farm is located in a low-lying terrain and there is still water in the canals, the drilling of wells must be carried out as soon as possible for long-term development.
In the afternoon, Gu Lie Gaoluan left after eating. Fang Xiaobao was not idle, and was ready to go to Ma Wenfang to discuss this matter. Unexpectedly, before he walked out of the villa gate, Ma Wenfang had already arrived.
"The owner."
Ma Wenfang, who had just gone to the city to buy sweet water, saw Fang Xiaobao and immediately reported an important situation. From now on, the sweet water supply points will implement a limited policy, and each household can have a maximum of one truck of sweet water per day.
"How can this be enough!" After hearing this, Fang Xiaobao hurriedly greeted Ma Wenfang and sent someone to Gu Lie's house to get a few truckloads of sweet water for emergency. Not to mention eating, drinking, and drinking, the fruit grove is about to enter the harvest period, and the lack of sweet water irrigation will greatly affect the harvest yield.
Ma Wenfang smiled and said, "Don't worry, I've already arranged it and got ten truckloads of sweet water." ”
"Isn't it a limited edition...... Wen Fang, how did you get ten truckloads of water? Fang Xiaobao's face was full of curiosity.
"With one water truck per household a day, we don't have enough farms, but we have more than enough for other families."
Ma Wenfang's solution is very simple, go home, ask a few neighbors, and use their places to buy sweet water. One household and one car, it doesn't take much effort to make up ten water trucks.
"Well, that's the way to go."
Regarding Ma Wenfang's ability to do things, Fang Xiaobao has always been very sure that since he has this good helper, he has to worry a lot less.
Ma Wenfang's solution can only solve the urgent need. If we want to get rid of the problem of water once and for all, the drilling of wells must be put on the agenda as soon as possible. When Fang Xiaobao was about to say his thoughts, he didn't expect Ma Wenfang to take the first step to propose and hire professionals to come to the farm, survey the terrain, and try to drill wells.
"The owner, the sweet water of the imperial capital comes from an underground spring, with a huge amount of water and branching veins...... According to my rough calculations, the location of our farm is very likely to contain underground spring branches, and if the spring can be dug out, it will not only produce a large amount of water, but also sweet water. Ma Wenfang said his analysis.
Fang Xiaobao's face was full of surprise after hearing this: "Wen Fang, you also have research on geological exploration?" ”
"I learned a little bit from books." Ma Wenfang is very humble. Later, if the proprietor agreed, he had connections in this regard, and there happened to be professionals in the neighborhood who were engaged in drilling wells.
"Okay, I'll take care of this, the sooner the better." Fang Xiaobao clapped.
The proprietor nodded. Ma Wenfang immediately set out and prepared to go home to contact the neighbor who was engaged in digging wells. Before leaving, Fang Xiaobao didn't forget to say a word of concern: "Is Wanwan's illness better?" ”
Wanwan is Ma Wenfang's only daughter, born with a defect, neither deaf nor dumb, but can't speak. For this reason, Ma Wenfang and his wife visited famous doctors and wanted to cure their daughter's illness, but there was no improvement.
Fang Xiaobao has seen a few bends, likes this little girl very much, and gave a black mastiff cub as a gift. I am very concerned about the family situation of Ma Wenfang's right-hand man.
"It's still the same." Mentioning her daughter, Ma Wenfang smiled wryly.
"Don't rush, take your time...... Maybe when the bend is bigger, the disease will be cured naturally. ”
Fang Xiaobao was relieved. Ma Wenfang cast a grateful gaze, then turned to leave.
……………………
Mulberry Lane.
Inside the compound. Wanwan is training his pet black mastiff cub. I don't see her gesturing and giving orders, and the little mouth shouts a few times, and the half-sized black mastiff cub will roll over, prostrate, or squat according to her wishes...... Perform a variety of difficult moves.
One person and one dog, having a good time. Zhao Yaling was busy with lunch in the kitchen, and when she saw her daughter's happy appearance, she couldn't help but smile.
The sound of horses' hooves came from outside the courtyard.
Originally, he was still training the bend of the pet black mastiff, and when he heard it with his little head sideways, he immediately trotted out of the door. The black mastiff cub shook his head and tail, and followed behind the little master.
It didn't take long. Ma Wenfang walked into the house. Holding his daughter in his arms, he was smiling dotingly.
"Wen Fang, why are you back?"
Zhao Yaping wore an apron and walked out of the kitchen quickly. Under normal circumstances, the men in their family are busy with farm affairs, leaving early and returning late, and rarely return home at noon.
Ma Wenfang talked about the situation of digging wells. Then he instructed his wife, "Yaping, prepare a few more dishes, go and invite Li Laohei to come over for dinner, and I will tell him about digging a well by the way." ”
Zhao Yaping nodded. When he turned around and was about to go to the kitchen to work, he suddenly seemed to remember something, pulled his man to the corner, and said with excitement on his face: "Wen Fang, I have good news for you." ”
Ma Wenfang put down her daughter and let her go to the side to play, and then smiled and said, "Let me guess, I guess you have found a miracle doctor again, boasting that Haikou can cure our daughter's illness." ”
"I'm serious with you."
Zhao Yaping glanced at her. Don't blame her man for teasing her, since her life has been better, she has spent a lot of money to hire someone to see a doctor for her daughter over the years, and she has not encountered swaggering liars.
But this time, it's absolutely genuine.
Aunt Qin next door has an eldest brother of the same clan who serves as a royal doctor in the inner court of the palace, and because of her age, she returned to her hometown a few days ago and opened a medical clinic in the city. can serve as the imperial physician of the inner court, and his medical skills are excellent, which is obvious. The clinic has just opened, and there is an endless stream of patients who come to seek knowledge, and business is extremely hot.
"This Qin Divine Doctor has the means to bring the dead back to life, and he only sees ten patients a day, and it is said that it is the turn of the queue to start spring tomorrow...... Wen Fang, I begged Aunt Qin for a few days to get a registration card through the back door. ”
Zhao Yaping took out a bamboo plaque, which indicated the detailed date, the 28th of the end of the month, at nine o'clock.
Ma Wenfang held the bamboo card in his hand, looked at it, and his face was full of joy. Aunt Qin next door has relatives who serve as the imperial physician of the inner court, and he has also heard from his neighbors that there should be no fake. The imperial doctor's methods are clever, not as good as those in the rivers and lakes, perhaps...... This time there is a real chance to cure my daughter's illness.
"Yaling, you have made a great contribution this time, you should be rewarded!" Ma Wenfang was in a happy mood and made a joke about his wife.
"If I don't get out of the horse, count on you, no way!"
Zhao Yaping was very proud. Tell your man to remember the date, don't forget to take half a day off, and accompany her daughter to see a doctor together.
…………………………
Afternoon.
When the sun is in the sky, it is spicy and hot, and the earth is baked. Fang Xiaobao led a group of people to walk among the wheat fields, pausing from time to time to look around.
Ma Wenfang's work efficiency is very fast. After noon, professional well-drillers were brought in.
The foreman Li Laohei, who has been engaged in drilling wells for three generations, has excellent technology and rich experience. With seven young people, all of whom are his sons and nephews, it can be said that the construction team is all a family team.
All drilling equipment has been shipped. Just wait for the survey, select the location, and start work.
Water is the lifeblood of farm development. Fang Xiaobao attached great importance to it and personally led Li Laohei and them to explore the terrain. After turning around a long time, after returning to the villa on the top of the mountain, Fang Xiaobao asked Zhao Yaling to prepare cold food for melons and fruits and warmly entertain the guests.
"Uncle Li, do you think my land is suitable for digging wells?"
He was born poor, although he is developed, Fang Xiaobao never looks down on craftsmen like Li Laohei, on the contrary, he respects him very much.
As his name suggests, the old black man is swarthy and honest. He thought for a moment and said directly: "Boss Fang's farm is low-lying, adjacent to the Weishui River, and has abundant groundwater resources. If you want to dig a bitter water well, it is very simple, and you can definitely get water out of any place on the other side of the wheat field if you drill six meters. ”
At this point, he paused and said, "But if you want to make a sweet water well, you must choose a spot on this mountain." ”
Fruit groves need to be watered with sweet water. At the moment, sweet water is also the most scarce. Therefore, of course, Fang Xiaobao had to dig a sweet water well.
"Just pick a spot on the mountain."
Fang Xiaobao looked at Li Laohei and said with a smile: "Uncle Li has a agreeable place?" How good are the chances? ”
"There are four jujube pear trees in the middle of the waist, the root system is developed, and there must be few underground rocks in the ground, which should be suitable."
Li Laohei already has a favorite place, but the probability of successfully drilling a sweet water well is difficult to deduce in his words, it all depends on luck.
"The secluded spring pierces the rocks!"
Ma Wenfang expressed his opinion on the side. Most of the underground springs run through the underground mountains, and there are only two options for successfully digging sweet water wells, one is to dig through the rock formations, and the other is to follow the cracks in the rocks to open the springs.
The amount of work to drill through the rock formation is too large. Not to mention the cost of manpower and financial resources, it is not certain that there will be a spring after it is opened.
Therefore it is not feasible.
The second method saves time and effort, but there is no normalcy in the leylines, and even professionals like Li Laohei are not sure that they can lock the cracks in the rocks and drill wells for water.
Fang Xiaobao thought about it. The area of mountain fruit forests is not large, but it is not small. Unless Li Laohei and others have perspective eyes, it is difficult to find the exact point.
Either way, you can give it a try first.
Fang Xiaobao said what he thought. Tell Li Laohei to choose a few more points, start work immediately, don't worry about salary, no matter whether you can dig a sweet water well or not, half a copper should be given.
Luck!
If you want to dig a sweet water well, it is luck in the end. Fang Xiaobao is very confident in this regard, his luck has always been very good, and this time he may be able to bump into shit luck.
