After the Earthquake of Rebirth

"Have you been able to contact the outside world?" Huzi asked in surprise.

Dong Wen'an nodded, "I heard from them that, in fact, within a few days after the earthquake, City D was in contact with the capital. At the beginning, it was the military equipment brought by the army. I don't know the exact reason, but it seems that it is not affected by the satellite , magnetic field and other influences. Later, the telephone lines that were deeply buried in the ground were rushed to repair in the early days. Now our city communicates with the outside world, most of the domestic telephone lines rely on underground telephone lines, and the foreign ones still rely on that military equipment.”

beard:"……"

It turns out that not only domestic, but also foreign countries have been connected.

"However, although this matter is not considered an internal secret, it is not planned to be announced in the short term." Dong Wen'an immediately explained.

Du Cheng nodded, understanding what Dong Wen'an meant.That is to say, they just listen to the matters related to the outside world, and they can't talk about it for the time being.It makes sense when you think about it.

Today, the surviving citizens of City D are not all natives of City D, there are also many outsiders like Wang Yang and the others, who may be studying, working part-time, or traveling on business or tourism.Anyway, no matter what the reason is, as long as the earthquake stayed in D City at that time, it can only stay here now.

Once the news of the recovery of the communication spreads, they will definitely contact their families as soon as possible. Even the locals in D City, who don't have any relatives and friends in other places, after such a big disaster, everyone must be eager to confirm each other's safety and harmony. no.

But the problem is that even if the city can indeed communicate with the outside world, how many people can meet the needs of contacting with the telephone lines buried underground many years ago?

So don't contact anyone at all, and wait until the communication is restored on a large scale.Or when the reconstruction of various cities in the country is on the right track, the surviving population and the list of victims will definitely be counted, and there will naturally be accurate news at that time.

In fact, when applying for a new citizen ID card, City D had already conducted a census, and the list of survivors was reported to the central government early. However, after experiencing the plague, the previously reported list was no longer accurate.Dong Wen'an said that after the overall relocation back to the new city this time, City D will conduct a final census.As for the census of other cities, it has to be carried out according to the situation of each city, at least after the city is stabilized, the result of the census can be regarded as the final result.

But the most important thing for Du Cheng and the others now is the construction of the farm. Even Wang Yang and the others are no longer worried about the popularity of communication.It's useless to be anxious, it's better to get a firm foothold in City D first.

As for the farming machines, let Dong Wen'an help to keep an eye on them. No matter where there is material exchange in the city, as long as the other party has farming machines, Dong Wen'an will try his best to help and trade them along. It's fine to pay for the transportation costs yourself, and the city is not opposed to giving convenience to its own citizens in this respect.

As for Dong Wen'an, although he entered the deployment department because of the mandatory requirements of government reconstruction, he is quite happy with the content and nature of his current work.If there is no accident, even if two months are up, he will continue to work for a while.

For non-staff personnel like him who should be recruited, they will not have access to the real core transactions of D City, but the work that Dong Wen'an has handled now makes him familiar with other aspects at home and abroad that do not involve the country's foundation and technology core. Have some knowledge.Based on these, Dong Wen'an already has a vague direction for the path he wants to take in the future.

However, one person counts the short and the other counts the long, and when there is a chance, he plans to make a specific total with Ning Qiyan.

If it weren't for Ning Qiyan's ambition not to be here, and to focus on his small farm, Dong Wen'an would have wanted to pull Ning Qiyan into the deployment department.

However, if his idea can be realized, it will have to rely on Ning Qiyan's family farm as the foundation at first, so now that he thinks about it, Ning Qiyan is indeed wise enough. Without him, with the current state of development, many ideas are useless. empty talk.

Dong Wen'an watched over the machine incidentally, and Bai Chengyi and the others helped to spread some news about the recruitment.Du Cheng and Hu Zi planned to go back to the mountains to determine the salary of the recruits as soon as possible, so as to start recruiting as soon as possible.

After bidding farewell to Dong Wen'an, the two drove back. On the way back, Du Cheng made a detour to their family's farm.

With the subsequent rain, the ashes of the burning dry grass had gradually melted into the ground. Without the cover of the grass, the pitted surface was directly exposed in the field of vision.Drive east along the highway for some distance, and you can see a clear dividing line.To the east of the dividing line is the land of the first resident that has been weeded and trimmed very neatly.

With such an obvious contrast, Du Cheng and Hu Zi felt that their land was really horrible.

"Let's hire someone quickly." After holding back for a long time, Beard said dryly.

Du Cheng couldn't help but nodded.

As it is now, there is really nothing to see in his own land. Du Cheng glanced at the neat farmland next to him, thinking in his heart, after the recruitment is completed, his own farm will become so clean and tidy, and his mood will become very happy again. good.

"Slow down, look over there."

Driving along the road towards Cangyun Mountain, before passing the entire farmland that was divided by the government, the beard suddenly pointed to the front left.

Du Cheng slowed down and looked in the direction he pointed out.

In a desolate land, many people suddenly gathered together.When they got closer, they could clearly see that more than half of the people in the group were soldiers in military uniforms, and the rest were mostly people in dusty overalls.

It was still early, the two parked the car on the side of the road, watched the movements of the group of people and the tools beside them for a while, Du Cheng and Huzi suddenly realized, looked at each other, then got out of the car together, got off the road, and walked towards the crowd .

There is no need to ask carefully. After getting closer, I can see the obviously newly dug deep well in the middle of the crowd and the newly pumped water in the bucket next to it that is being tested.Du Cheng and Huzi's guess before getting off the car was correct, they were exploring water sources.

I looked around at the people, whether they were wearing work clothes or military uniforms, no one was familiar with them, Du Cheng and the others didn't make trouble, and stood quietly watching.

Someone in the crowd noticed the two people who appeared suddenly, but the drilling of the well was not a secret, so no one drove them away.

After another hour or so, the oldest-looking man in overalls nodded.

"There is no problem with the water source, and the water output is sufficient. The supply of farmland is sufficient."

Not only the soldiers next to him, but also Du Cheng and Hu Zi's eyes lit up.Once the water source is determined, they can lay the irrigation system in advance, so that the manual workload after planting will be greatly reduced.

Seeing that the staff responsible for surveying the water source was about to pack up and leave, Du Cheng paused and stepped forward.

"Hello, I want to know, is there a well in this farmland?"

The old technician looked up at Du Cheng, "You are..."

Du Cheng pointed to the west side, "I'm from the farm at the farthest west end."

The old technician had some doubts in his heart. Didn't this land be allotted to the troops?Du Cheng didn't look like a soldier at first sight.

However, no matter who the land is allocated to, it does not affect the old technician to explain: "In such a large place, we must not just open this well. Even if the water output is enough, the water is too slow. But where else can it be drilled?" The well is not sure yet, we have to look at the direction of the underground river. If the drainage problem is not serious, we will try our best to ensure that there is a well on the land of each resident." Then, the old technician looked at Du Cheng and Huzi again. , "Aren't you from the army?"

Du Cheng paused for a moment when he heard this, and looked at Hu Zi, a little hesitant.

At present, the farmland on the Xincheng side is only assigned to the army. Du Cheng is worried that if he directly says that they do not belong to the army and privately contract the land, it may cause trouble for the army.Although the reason why they were able to contract the land was the reward for saving people, but in the end it was the army who helped them get through the back door.

Seeing the reaction of Du Cheng and Huzi, the old technician understood, and it was not difficult for them. He took out a pen and paper from his pocket, wrote down the location of his office, and handed it to Du Cheng.

"You take this. Even if you don't belong to the army, we will also take on some work to explore water sources. No matter where it is, you can come to this place in the city to find me in a few days. I will help you find the location, and find someone to dig the well yourself. "

Du Cheng took the paper, folded it carefully and put it in his pocket, before thanking the old technician.

Now that the water source is available, Du Cheng and Hu Zi are even more anxious to go back.If you want to plant a season of crops in the field this year, irrigation, cultivation and greenhouses are all rushed together, and the originally abundant time has become very tight.

After returning to the cave, Ning Xiaowen and Ning Qiyan were both there.Now Ning Qiyan can't move, it's not as convenient to enter and exit the space every time, so after Du Cheng and the others left, Ning Qiyan and Ning Xiaowen simply waited in the cave.

Du Cheng and Huzi were a little anxious, and it took only half of the usual time to go up the mountain. After entering the cave, the two of them sat directly on the kang where Ning Qiyan was lying on his stomach. After a sigh of relief, they poured beans and told everything over again.

The salary of the recruiter can be studied slowly at night. Ning Qiyan directly took out the revised irrigation map from the side of the pillow, and all the required materials have been marked on the back.

Huzi didn't delay, picked up the blueprint and went down the mountain.Their farm area is not small, and the materials they need are naturally indispensable. It is impossible for the redemption point to store so many engineering materials, so now he goes down the mountain and reports the list of materials to the redemption point. After the redemption point clears the materials from the inventory, directly Transport it to the redemption point in the university city, and then trade directly in the university city, which is still close to the farm.

After Hu Zi went out, Du Cheng also went out to find Zhang Pingguo.With the salary that Bai Chengyi told the government to rebuild the recruitment, they knew exactly what they were recruiting.They don't plan to hire people to work on the farm for a long time from the beginning, but in the short term, in order to catch up with time, even if the salary is slightly higher, as long as they can harvest a batch of grain before winter, they will make a steady profit.Moreover, the salary cannot be generalized. Only by dividing the salary level according to the workload can the enthusiasm of the employees be stimulated to the greatest extent.
