Chapter 17

Li Yuan smiled: "Well, digging a well in the countryside is indeed a big deal. Even when buying couplets during the Chinese New Year, I will specially buy a red letter of 'Jingquan Daji' and paste it on it."

Studio:
"The anchor is not very old, how can he know so many things?"

"Learn more!"

"Of course, our anchor is Xueba, haha!"

While paying attention to the situation on the well drilling side, Li Yuan chatted with the audience in the live broadcast room.

More than ten minutes passed so quickly, and at this time the depth of the well had reached 16 meters.

"When will the water come out? I can't wait."

"Yeah, I'm too curious about what it looks like after the well is drilled and the water comes out."

"The anchor, please tell me, when will we see the water coming out?"

Li Yuan: "It's 16 meters now, which is already considered deep in the village, so it should be soon."

"16 meters? So deep?"

"Is there anything else to say about this depth?"

Li Yuan nodded.

"Actually, there's nothing wrong with it. It's just that the deeper the well water is, the cleaner it is. The water in a deep well is much more than that in a shallow well."

At this time, there are more and more people in Uncle Wang's house.

But now the water hasn't come out yet, most people are standing on the sidelines watching the fun, they can't help much, they are almost talking and laughing, it's very harmonious.

Finally, with a burst of rattling noises, the sound of water finally came from the mechanical outlet of the well.

And hearing this voice, everyone stopped talking for an instant, and looked at the direction of the well drilling with joy.

"It seems to be there!"

"The water is coming, the water is coming! Everyone, get out of here!"

After someone in the crowd yelled, the people around hurriedly dispersed, and the experienced old man quickly retreated towards the distance the moment he heard the voice.

After the sound of the small water flow at the beginning, and then a bang, the water under the ground gushed out towards the ground in an instant!

Ginger-colored well water with sand and gravel scattered around, and the neighbors with tools in their hands hurriedly got to work, stopping the dirty water everywhere.

And several neighbors who were covered in mud and water because they couldn't dodge in time, didn't show any anger at all. Instead, they laughed along with the people in the village watching the excitement.

That scene can be described as extraordinarily harmonious and joyful.

And at the moment when the well water sprayed out, in Li Yuan's live broadcast room, thousands of people watched it almost in a few seconds.

"Is it out of water? Is it really out of water?"

"I don't know why, I was so happy when I saw this scene in front of the screen..."

"Me too, I just started giggling at the screen."

"This is a bit different from what I imagined. Shouldn't the water be clean?"

"I'm also curious, the water is so dirty, how can I drink it?"

Li Yuan explained with a smile: "The water from the wells that have just been drilled is like this. After the wells are drilled, the water will slowly clear after a day or two of precipitation."

"However... if you want to drink the water from this well, you have to wait for half a month."

A netizen couldn't help asking in surprise: "Have to wait half a month? Isn't it possible to eat it when the water is clear?"

Li Yuan shook his head.

"Although it can be eaten, basically there is still a lot of yellow mud and sand in the water. In the later stage, we need to put water for several hours a day, and put the water in the well for seven or eight months in a row, so that it will seep out again. The water that comes will be sweet and clean.”

"Anchor, have you ever dug a well at home?"

Li Yuan smiled and nodded.

"I did, but it should be when I was six or seven years old. I don't remember exactly what it looked like."

"But since I don't remember, why do you know so much, anchor?"

"Yeah, I'm also curious about how you know these things, the anchor, it completely subverts my positioning of the anchor..."

"May I ask what is the position of the netizens upstairs?"

"Of course it's...little boy, haha!"

Many people immediately agreed.

"It's really quite white..."

While Li Yuan was speaking, he had already drilled another two or three meters, and as the sound of the machine stopped, the well-drilling machine was slowly brought out from the ground.

At this moment, it was the beginning of the real work, and Li Yuan, as a strong young man, naturally joined the working team.

I saw a group of men in the village, first using lead wires to tie bamboo strips around the cement pipes, and then fix the cement pipes.

After tying a section of cement pipe, put it down, then separate the bamboo strips, and put down another section of cement pipe.

In this way, this process was repeated more than ten times until all the cement pipes were placed at the bottom of the well, and then everyone stopped and wiped the sweat from their heads.

This is physical work.

During the entire process of lowering the cement pipe, the audience in the live broadcast room have been watching with great curiosity.

For urbanites like them, they may not have the opportunity to participate in and witness the birth of a well in their lifetime.After all, in a city with towering buildings, as long as you turn on the tap, you can get water conveniently.

Seeing the yellow mud all over the floor in the video, and the appearance of more than a dozen people scrambling together to help lower the cement pipe, many people in the live broadcast room flew up their screens again.

"My God, I actually witnessed the birth of a well with my own eyes, and I was inexplicably excited."

"Ditto! For the first time in my life, I know how the well came to be. It's really a long experience."

"No."

"I finally know... why our uncle called so many people to help."

"Sure enough, it's a big project. If it's just one or two people, it's really too busy."

"I looked at it seriously in front of the screen, as if the well was drilled for me..."

"I don't know if this is a waste of water..."

"Shouldn't it count? Logically, the water should seep into the bottom again."

A group of people started seriously discussing whether the water just sprayed out was a waste in the live broadcast room.

Everyone was collecting firewood and the flames were high. Finally, with everyone's help, the well of Uncle Li's house came to the end of the last step of pumping the water, and the process of drilling the well was finally over.

The yard of Uncle Wang's house was in a mess at this time, and almost half of the crops were covered by the cement sprayed from the well.

Fortunately, the preparations were sufficient, and Uncle Wang blocked most of the well water with bags filled with sand, which prevented the entire garden from being wiped out.

On the other side, the Li family had prepared water and soap long ago.

"Come, come, everyone has worked hard, wash your hands, and eat some watermelon."

Aunt Li took out a large pot of cut watermelon with a face full of gratitude, and there was a box of mineral water beside it, which seemed to be specially prepared for these helpers.
