My Ranch

Chapter 461: Excavation!

According to my design, this river will not be too wide, and the most important thing is, Mr. Jiang, you are not just here to raise fish, right? After getting off the helicopter, Jiang Hai took Hurt-Charles Arriving at his villa, he also drew a simple diagram on paper in front of Jiang Hai. On his diagram, the river course he designed for Jiang Hai was very interesting.

It is an S-shape rotated 90 degrees to the left. The top part of the S is near Jiang Hai's villa.

Then there is an arc that allows the river to bypass the residential area on Jiang Hai's side, but forms a natural barrier on the river in front of Jiang Hai. In this way, the temperature here will be very comfortable in summer. At the same time, It will be easier to catch fish in the future.

Then the river continues to walk. After passing the residential area, it goes up and uses the S-arc shape on the other side to bypass the wineries and pastures until it reaches the forest, and then changes to a straight road and flows into the sea.

In this way, in the open space behind the winery, some pens for the things Jiang Hai originally wanted to raise could be placed.

Jiang Hai created this river not only to raise fish, but also to use fresh water for the pigs, chickens, sheep, etc. he imported from the country.

In order to prevent these creatures from making the water smelly, it is naturally impossible to place it at the source. Instead, it is placed at the forest where it is easy to be eaten. You must know that there is a family of mountain lions living there, so you can only place it at the source. Located behind the winery.

Here, the river passes through pig pens, sheep pens, chicken coops, etc., and it will be easy to take care of them. Unlike the pheasant nests and flying dragon nests in Jiang Hai now, it is really troublesome to take care of them once, and it is also very tricky. Bugs can all be moved away when the time comes.

Although designing the river in this way requires more construction money, it ensures the integrity of the pasture, which is also in line with Jiang Hai's wishes.

OK,

So let’s dig in. When will we start? Looking at Hurt-Charles, Jiang Hai said with certainty.

Hey, Mr. Jiang, you are still too anxious. Before digging the river, we have to dig a well, and we have to discuss the price. Hearing Jiang Hai's words. Hurt-Charles here couldn't help but shake his head, this Jiang Hai is really wealthy.

Ah, oh, you said it. Seeing Hurt-Charles talking about the price, Jiang Hai smiled awkwardly. He was indeed used to being wealthy, and then Hurt-Charles roughly discussed the price of the construction with Jiang Hai.

Drilling a well actually means digging a source. This is calculated separately from the cost of the river, because it is very troublesome to find water, dig a well, and reinforce it. The cost is actually only one-third of the cost of building the river. The price is lower.

According to Hurt-Charles's price, he dug a well 20 meters deep, and he gave Jiang Hai the first three meters for free. After three meters, the price for the next meter is US$320. Jiang Hai knew that this price was very reasonable and even a bit cheap. Other companies would even charge US$400 or even US$500. Of course, if In Nevada or Arizona, one thousand meters is a fair price, just kidding. When digging a well in the desert, does one thousand and one meters count as black?

From 20 meters below to 150 meters, each meter costs $470, according to Hurt-Charles' calculation.

This small river in Jiang Hai. It takes about seven kilometers, because there are many curves in the middle, and because it is not deep, the displacement is not very large. It requires about 400 tons of displacement.

Winthrop is rich in underground water resources, and it can be dug up to about 13 to 14 meters depending on the time. Water will definitely come out, but the amount of water produced is not very approximate. It is difficult for a well to produce more than 100 tons of water, so Jiang Hai needs to dig four or five wells, or dig a deep well, so that it can be guaranteed The water flow is plentiful.

After hearing what he said, Jiang Hai also made some calculations in his mind. If he dug five wells with a depth of 20 meters, the cost of drilling the wells would be very cheap. It would cost 20,000 to 30,000 yuan, plus the cost of strengthening the wells and regulating the water flow. , almost fifty to sixty thousand, not expensive at all.

Although it was twice as expensive as he had imagined, there was not much difference between thirty thousand and sixty thousand for Jiang Hai.

So he immediately made a decision, drilling. As for the money for the river outside, according to Hurt-Charles, he was responsible for digging the river for one kilometer, adding river banks, and helping Jiang Hai transport sand from the sea. There was no need for this anymore. Pay for it.

Not including riverside wires, street lights, etc., he charged Jiang Hai thirty-two thousand US dollars for one kilometer of the river, and these things were all included. Later, Jiang Hai said that if several bridges were to be built in the middle of the river, they could not be left unfinished all the time. Come on, there are still trees to be planted on both sides of the river bank, forest paths and street lights. In fact, this is what Jiang Hai wanted to do on a whim. In the past, when he ran, he always ran on the originally paved path of the pasture. But now he can run on the riverside road, a fourteen-kilometer trip, which also serves as a warm-up. After hearing Jiang Hai's words, although Robbins and the others felt that it was not necessary, Jiang Hai did not do it. There are many things that are necessary.

There is no need for those of them who are subordinates to talk about this matter. Jiang Hai can do whatever he wants.

But after hearing what Jiang Hai said, Hurt-Charles also made some calculations in his mind.

Because for him, this was also an income. In the end, he decided to give Jiang Hai the whole package. He originally wanted to dig the rivers, boulevards, street lamps, and trees directly from Jiang Hai's forest, but Jiang Hai disagreed and wanted to dig them out. To transport it out from the Appalachian Mountains, he paid Jiang Hai 61,000 US dollars per kilometer. This price was still within the range of Jiang Hai's heart. Although he was not building a small river to sell tickets and use it as a park, it was still in his heart. Being comfortable is the most important thing.

The initial price for the river channel was US$427,000. Hurt-Charles directly helped Jiang Hai solve the problem of the entrance to the sea.

The price of digging a well at the same time is about 60,000, which is within Jiang Hai's affordability range, so there is nothing to say. Let's sign the contract and start finishing it. This contract, with a total value of no more than 500,000 US dollars, has no Need to show Moses Adams.

After Jiang Hai sent it to Penelope, Penelope had finished reading it and said there was no problem.

Jiang Hai signed his name with Hurt-Charles, and Jiang Hai also gave him a $100,000 first move.

As soon as the money came in, Hurt-Charles was ready to start moving. That night, he went back to find people. The next day, the man who dug the well from Hurt-Charles had already arrived first. There is something special about digging a river. I didn’t start digging directly.

Instead, we need to dig out the wellbore first, and then dig the river channel after determining the location. However, we do not dig out the soil on the other side of the wellbore. Instead, we dig the river channel at a certain distance. After all the river channels are constructed, we can dig the river channel. The spring was dug out and the water rushed out to form a small river. Jiang Hai didn't understand this at first, but it didn't matter if he followed and watched the excitement.

Hurt-Charles led a few people and began to check at a position about one meter away to the left of Jiang Hai's villa. Winthrop's groundwater resources were quite abundant, and it didn't take long for them to determine the location. .

Jiang Hai hadn't seen the well digging yet, so as soon as these people came, Jiang Hai took the initiative to get over and look over there.

Seeing Jiang Hai approaching, Hurt-Charles thought he was afraid that he would not be able to draw water, so he took the initiative to walk over and explain to him: Mr. Jiang, don't worry, the wells we have drilled are not worth 500 yuan. It’s already four hundred. It’s definitely possible to get water here. Let me explain it to you. I think you also know that the inside of the earth is the core, the liquid layer and the like, and the crust we are standing on is actually A layer of hard stone, and there are many cracks in these stones, which contains a large amount of groundwater. The freshwater resources near Winthrop are quite abundant, and water can definitely be pumped out.

Oh... After hearing his words, Jiang Hai couldn't help but smile awkwardly. Could he say that he was just here to watch the fun?

After choosing the location, Hurt-Charles here no longer cares about Jiang Hai. It's not a secret anyway. He and his colleagues started playing with the machine. Drilling is not as simple as imagined. There is a drill bit. That's it.

In addition to drilling rigs, there are also mud machines, machines for mixing mud, and machines for pumping mud.

In addition, there is a cement machine next to it. If the water comes up, then we will start to drill the well and consolidate it with concrete.

Anyway, there is a line of doorways. Jiang Hai looked at it for a long time and didn't understand it clearly, but the machine has already started to run.

With the roaring sound, the drill bit entered the ground, and Winthrop was surrounded by seas and rivers, and the water resources were quite abundant.

It didn't take long for mud to appear, but Hurt-Charles did not call for a stop, but continued to drill out. Although water began to come out, the tonnage of such water coming out was small, and it was not a problem for ordinary people to use it, but It’s difficult to make a river!

As there was more and more water, it meant that they had hit the right place. At the same time, the mud pump also started working to move the mud to the side. However, as the water got deeper and deeper, Jiang Hai found that the spiritual energy in his body suddenly It moved.

Then he saw that the water from the drilled well was actually steaming faintly. In fact, Hert-Charles and the others had also seen ordinary steam, but it was not possible for it to be so scary, and it seemed More and more.

At this time, Hurt-Charles couldn't help walking to the place where the mud was being discharged, and gently tried it with his hands, and then a trace of horror flashed across his face.

It's hot! Is this a hot spring? Jiang Hai was confused after hearing Hurt-Charles's words.

I immediately ran over here and touched it with my hands. Sure enough, this was indeed a hot spring. The water was hot and the temperature was not too low.

I went there, it's really a hot spring! Seeing that the muddy water was full of warm water and had a slight smell of sulfur, Jiang Hai couldn't help but feel happy. What's such a good thing? And here, Hurt-Charles has already brought the drill back up.

Looking at the water that has been drilled to a depth of about two meters, it is true that the water inside is steaming with a heater. I measured it with the thermometer I brought with me and found that the temperature was as high as 42 degrees. As I drilled deeper, the water was definitely still there. It was hotter, it was indeed a hot spring, and it was a natural hot spring that could be soaked in directly. Jiang Hai couldn't help but feel happy when he saw this. It looked like he was in good luck! (To be continued.)
