Chapter 152: Building a Reservoir
readx;? In fact, it is not difficult to dig a 200-meter-deep well, and it takes some time, money and effort to dig it out, and the real difficulty is to locate the source of groundwater. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
The depth of groundwater around Huangsha Town is very deep, generally below fifty or sixty meters, such a deep depth, if you do not have modern groundwater detection instruments in your hands, just rely on manpower to find it, this difficulty and cost is really great.
The Shenzhou Continent is still a slave feudal society, where did they get the modern groundwater detection instruments, what they can rely on is the experience of finding wells passed down from generation to generation, as well as some luck, and if you want to rely on these things to dig groundwater underground, it is too difficult, too great.
If it weren't for the extreme difficulty of locating the groundwater, it would not have taken more than ten years and millions of silver coins to dig 30 deep wells in Huangsha Town.
Let's put it this way, after digging these 30 deep wells, there are still hundreds of large holes in Huangsha Town that are from more than 40 or 50 meters deep to 123 meters deep, all of which are abandoned because no water source has been dug.
Relying on these 30 deep wells, Huangsha Town has been able to feed 100,000 townspeople in the town, but if this number is increased by half, or even doubled, there will also be a water crisis in Huangsha Town.
The groundwater in the well is not infinite, it also takes time to accumulate!
Wang Ming is very clear about these things, so when he was worried about the water situation in the camp camp, he only thought about digging wells and the like, and didn't mention it at all, because he knew that the success rate would not be too high, and even if it was successful, the cost would be too great to draw.
However, Wang Ming still thought of a way to replenish the water source.
He wanted to dig hundreds or thousands of cellars to store rainwater before the rainy season in Huangsha Town, as others have done for thousands of years in other arid areas.
However, now that Lin Ze told him that he could accurately locate the location of the groundwater, Wang Ming was instantly confused, and what he thought was the biggest difficulty was solved so easily here in Lin Ze.
"My lord, you give the order, I'm going to organize people to prepare to dig the well now!" Wang Ming said with an excited face, not doubting whether Lin Ze's words were true at all.
There were already too many miracles in Lin Ze's hands, and Wang Ming had seen them more than once or twice.
For example, the fire armor ox, the Quyuan plow, the ground nest, and the dropper technology just now, these things are synonymous with miracles in Wang Ming's eyes, and now there is a miracle of accurately locating the location of groundwater, so what's the matter.
What's more, Lin Ze will not lie about such a big matter, because once he lies, it will be Lin Ze himself who will suffer in the end, and he will lose the hearts of everyone under him.
What's more, whether such a thing is true or not, it is also very convenient to test, and when the time comes, find a place where Lin Ze finds out where there is groundwater and dig it, and you will know, so Wang Ming believes Lin Ze's words 100%.
At the same time, Wang Ming also understood what Lin Ze meant by the other jobs he said before.
If you want to dig enough wells, you will definitely need a lot of manpower, and this will solve the problem of a large part of the displaced people.
"Wang Ming, let's not be busy organizing manpower first. Lin Ze spoke up to stop Wang Ming, who had already rolled up his sleeves and was ready to do a big job.
Lin Ze just said that he was digging a well, just to explain to Wang Ming that there is not only farming, there are many others, and he has other things to explain to Wang Ming, so it is not yet time to dig a well.
"Young Master......!"
"Your Excellency......" Wang Ming and Lin Fu both shouted at Lin Ze in unison, they both wanted to arrange this matter in place as soon as possible.
Wang Ming wanted to solve the water problem in the camp as soon as possible, while Lin Fu wanted to dig out the 'gold mine' as soon as possible.
In desert towns like Huangsha Town, water can also be sold for a lot of money.
"Wang Ming, Lin Fu, don't be impatient, I'm here anyway, I can start digging wells whenever I want, and besides, I still have something to say here. Lin Ze said with a smile.
"Yes, young master. Lin Fu quickly quieted down.
Wang Ming is the same, however, compared to Lin Fu's calmness, Wang Ming's face is more solemn, because it must be a bigger thing to be able to let Lin Ze put aside such a big thing as digging a well first, and Wang Ming is looking forward to this.
He couldn't help asking, "My lord, what else do you have to explain?"
"Wang Ming, how about we build a reservoir here?" Lin Ze said in high spirits.
Building a reservoir is what Lin Ze wants to do the most, as for digging a well before, it is actually just a temporary transitional measure, or a measure to calm people's hearts.
Lin Ze has taken Huangsha Town as his starting point, and in the future, Huangsha Town will become the center of Lin Ze's career, and at that time, Huangsha Town will not only have a population of more than 100,000 people (including displaced people), but also millions, tens of millions is her real scale.
Therefore, for the sake of future development, Lin Ze is going to build a giant reservoir around Huangsha Town, a giant reservoir as large as the Dense //Yun// Reservoir in Kyoto, China.
(Dense / cloud / reservoir circle is 200 kilometers)
"Reservoir?!" Wang Ming was stunned, he didn't know what a reservoir was, he had never heard of this term before, so he asked Lin Ze very suspiciously: "My lord, what is a reservoir?"
"You don't know about the reservoir?" Lin Ze looked at Wang Ming in disbelief, and then something that made him dumbfounded appeared, and he really saw Wang Ming shake his head.
Lin Ze turned around and asked the others again, and got the same answer.
(In fact, reservoirs first appeared in the early nineteenth century, such as Dujiangyan, Zhanghe Canal, Zhengguo Canal and other projects, not reservoirs in the real sense, can only be called water diversion projects, they are still a little different from reservoirs.) )
"Now it looks like I'm going to have to tell you what a reservoir is. Lin Ze said helplessly, Wang Ming and Lin Fu didn't know what a reservoir was, so Lin Ze only had a detailed explanation.
"When I talk about a reservoir, it's actually a ....... that can regulate water sources and intercept floods. Lin Ze explained to Wang Ming and Lin Fu in detail what a reservoir is and what it does.
Lin Ze's explanation was very comprehensive, and Wang Ming understood what a reservoir was as soon as he heard it.
Once the reservoir is opened, it is a very simple thing.
"It turns out that this is a reservoir, such a project is indeed beneficial to the country and the people, if you really build a reservoir, it is really good, in this way, it fundamentally solves the problem of drinking water in Huangsha Town. Wang Ming agreed, Lin Ze's plan was better than the previous plan to dig a well.
"Young Master, if we can really build such a reservoir, then we don't have to worry about water shortage in the future. Lin Fu on the side also agreed with Lin Ze's opinion.
However, compared to Wang Ming, Lin Fu's view is still a little shallow, he only sees the role of reservoir storage, as for other roles, Lin Fu does not see it at all, which is related to Lin Fu's identity as Lin Ze's housekeeper.
"Very good, now that you know what a reservoir is, do we need to build a reservoir?" Lin Ze asked rhetorically.
"Yes!"
"Yes!"
Wang Ming and Lin Fu replied in unison, and their answers were so resolute and powerful.
Seriously, after understanding what a reservoir is, Wang Ming was calmed by Lin Ze's fantastical idea, and then, Wang Ming's heart was aroused by Lin Ze's great idea, and he wanted to participate in such a great project.
"My lord, tell me what you're going to do. Wang Ming suppressed the excitement in his heart and said, he couldn't wait to know the reservoir construction plan in Lin Ze's heart.
As for digging a well, Wang Ming has now forgotten about it.
"Okay, I'll talk about it. ”
Wang Ming did not shirk it, and soon told Wang Ming and the others about the reservoir construction plan that he had planned in his heart.
"Wang Ming, Lin Fu, here I have to explain first, if you want to build a reservoir, it is not a simple thing, the reservoir seems to be simple, but when you really start to build, you will find that it is actually a bit difficult.
First of all, this place must have the conditions for building reservoirs, preferably those natural basins, so that you can dig a reservoir on the ground, saving time, effort and money;
Secondly, the geological conditions of the reservoir location are very good, and it is not possible to choose those places with poor geological environment, otherwise there will be a large number of geological disasters before the reservoir is established;
Finally, there must be sufficient water sources at the location of the reservoir, otherwise it will be embarrassing to wait for you to see the reservoir well, but find that it cannot store water at all, so only when these three conditions are met, can you say that the reservoir can be built. ”
Lin Ze first talked about the preliminary conditions for the construction of the reservoir, which was to let Wang Ming know that the construction of the reservoir is not such a simple matter, he is a very serious matter, and there are many things that need to be paid attention to.
Wang Ming nodded, it was easy to understand what Lin Ze said, while Lin Fu and his party on the side were relatively poor, and their IQ was still a little worse than Wang Minglai.
However, Lin Ze didn't care, he didn't have any hope that everyone would be able to understand his words, as long as Wang Ming could understand the meaning of what he said, Lin Ze would be satisfied, as for the rest, as long as there was such a concept, Lin Ze didn't care about the rest.
Therefore, when he saw that Wang Ming had understood what he was saying, Lin Ze continued to talk about ....... (to be continued.) )
