People live in the courtyard, pledge themselves to the country

It’s not that Lin Xiao didn’t think he could do it in one step, but it’s shocking enough to dig a well in a few days. If he is equipped with automatic tools such as a water pump, he will be quarantined and inspected soon, and he will have to explain the source of the things. .

Even so, Director Wu looked at Lin Xiao with strange eyes:
"Director Lin, is there any water in this well?"

Director Wu almost had three words of disbelief written on his face. After all, when he first built the base, he led people to drill countless detection holes. The deepest part was drilled to more than 20 meters, but no water came out. Now Lin Xiao drills a well in a few days, isn't this just for fun!
Lin Xiao smiled and didn't speak. He reached out and took the bucket hanging from the windlass and threw it directly into the well. After a while, he heard a "plop".

However, this voice was no different from the sounds of nature to Director Wu, he rushed to the well in excitement, and directly inserted his head into the well!

"My God, there is water! How deep is the well, why can't I see the water?"

Lin Xiao smiled and said, "It's not very deep, maybe more than 50 meters!"

In fact, there is no shortage of water sources in the Northwest, but there is no water on the ground. Groundwater resources are still very rich, but the groundwater is hidden in places tens to hundreds of meters underground, and it was impossible to detect that deep with the domestic level at that time. The place.

Director Wu trembled when he heard this. In just a few days, Lin Xiao dug a well of more than 50 meters by himself?Is he still human?
In fact, what Director Wu didn’t know was that Lin Xiao actually dug this well in only one night, and the rest of the time was only used to reinforce the well wall and build the earth platform and potter’s wheel.

Lin Xiao didn't explain much. He shook the handle and started to fetch water. He was very fast, and a bucket of water came up in a short time.

Looking at the crystal-clear water, Director Wu tremblingly stretched out his hands to hold a handful of water.

"It's so cool!" Director Wu murmured.

The cold and clear water in his hand made Director Wu realize that he was not dreaming.

Bringing the water to his mouth and taking a sip, Director Wu shuddered, and tears flowed out immediately:
"It's sweet, it's actually sweet, hahaha, we finally have water to drink, and it's still sweet water! Wooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooow."

Director Wu was so excited that he burst into tears, and wept bitterly. No one knew the pain in his heart.

The salinity in the Northwest is heavy, and the water picked up is bitter and astringent, which is very unpalatable, but even so, there are thousands of people in the base and the guards, who only rely on carrying water to drink, and each person's daily drinking water is limited Yes, not to mention domestic water such as bath water!

Therefore, the people in the base basically wash their faces once a week, and it would be nice to take a bath once a month. I don’t know how many people can’t stand this difficult condition, and try to transfer them away!

Food, water, housing, these are a few big rocks on the chest of Director Wu. Unexpectedly, after Lin Xiao came, he not only found limestone, but also killed tens of thousands of catties of prey for the base. He dug a well without saying a word, he is simply a great benefactor of the base!

"Woooooh, Director Lin, I don't know what to say, I'll give you one, otherwise I really don't know how to thank you!" Director Wu was about to kneel down to Lin Xiao as he said that.

Lin Xiao hurriedly grabbed Director Wu: "This is impossible! Director Wu, don't be polite to me here. The most important thing now is to quickly find someone to protect the well. It will be troublesome if any child runs away and falls into the well!"

There are more than 1000 workers in the base. Some of them must have children. Those children are usually free-range. If a child runs to the well out of curiosity and accidentally falls, it will be cool!

But Director Wu thought of something else: "Yes, yes, yes, you are right, we must protect it quickly, if another Bao Yuanchang poisons the well, something serious will happen!"

After speaking, Field Manager Wu hurriedly ran towards the base, but Lin Xiao didn't even have time to stop him.

In fact, Lin Xiao wanted to tell him that the well water here comes from underground rivers, and poisoning is useless.

Seeing Director Wu running away in a hurry, Lin Xiao let it go, and stayed here by himself to prevent someone from accidentally falling into the well.

After about half an hour, several military vehicles were seen galloping from the base, and the leader of the vehicle hadn't come to a complete stop before his eyes, and Commander Zhou jumped out of the vehicle.

"There is really a well!" Head Zhou's eyes were like copper bells. He couldn't wait to take a sip of the water in the bucket: "It's really sweet!"

Director Wu got out of the car slowly, with a disdainful expression on his face: "Commander Zhou, can I still lie to you?"

Lin Xiao smiled and didn't expose Director Wu. His performance just now was not much better than that of Captain Zhou.

"Everyone is there, with the well as the center, a 50-meter radius is on guard, and no one is allowed to come close!" Commander Zhou ignored Mr. Wu's ridicule and ordered loudly.

Several cars behind immediately jumped down and dozens of soldiers surrounded the well.

Director Wu immediately became impatient: "Commander Zhou, you don't allow anyone to approach, so what should the people in the cafeteria do with the water?"

Head Zhou said in a deep voice: "Captain Wu, this well is related to the entire base, and it is of great importance. No matter how careful we are, we can't be too careful. Now we can produce cement by ourselves? Turn around and build a water storage nearby. The base water is taken from there, and I will set this well as a warning zone, and no one is allowed to approach it!"

Director Wu thought about it for a while, but Captain Zhou was right, no matter how vigilant this well was, he agreed to the arrangement of Captain Zhou.

Lin Xiao didn't care. The wells were originally for them. No matter how they arrange them, it doesn't matter to him. He will come over next time and just build a few more wells, and then arrange the pumps so that they can use tap water directly. .

"Okay, it's almost time, I should go!" Lin Xiao interrupted Team Leader Zhou and Team Leader Wu.

"Brother Lin, I really don't know how to thank you. I thank you on behalf of my soldiers!" Captain Zhou solemnly gave a military salute to Lin Xiao.

Lin Xiao hurriedly replied, "Brother Zhou, you are serious. Compared with your hard work in protecting this land, I really haven't done enough!"

"If it weren't for my mission, I really want to stay and build the base with you! But when I finish the work at hand, I will definitely come back and fight side by side with you. I will bring a few more bottles of Erguotou with me. Get drunk!"

Head Zhou laughed loudly and said, "Okay, I'll rest when I'm drunk, I'll wait for you!"
