But the action of the child on the opposite side was like igniting a powder keg, and the child on Ah Qiu's side cursed, and the battle soon started.
Two groups of children put down the fragile buckets, yelled in the desert, and kept throwing their fists at the "enemy" in front of them...
From outside the battle situation, one can only see clouds of wind and sand flying up, and the little people are almost buried under the sand.
Ah Qiu was carrying his own bucket, and could only squeak beside him, as if he was cheering for his little friend.
This farce waited until the surrounding adults who came out to observe the corn situation arrived nearby, and finally ushered in a turning point.
Before the adults stopped drinking, the children yelled and stopped in unison. Then they quickly picked up their buckets, still screaming, and ran to the well in the distance.
Ah Qiu followed suit.
Soon they arrived at the well where the water was fetched. The children did not dare to mess around here. They lined up neatly and waited for the water to be fetched.
Ah Qiu was at the end as usual, and the children in front were all whispering, but she remained quiet, as if she had been forgotten by everyone.
By the time Ah Qiu finished fetching water, the other friends had left early, so she could only carry the heavy bucket by herself and move it home step by step.
When she got home, her parents also came home early, and brought back a few extra buckets of water, but at the same time they brought back a large bundle of dried corn stalks...
Chapter 356 Replenishing Groundwater
"This sandstorm can't be helped. The corn stalks will either be blown off or die, and they can't live." My father squatted on the ground and spread the long corn stalks one by one at the door of the house, preparing to use them as firewood when they were dry.
Fuel is also precious in this day and age.
After all, trees and other common plants are extinct, and maybe the last log was thrown into the fire by someone who didn't know how many years ago to cook.
The mother also had a sad expression on her face, "This sandstorm was forecast in advance, and there is nothing we can do about it..."
"The corn stalks can't escape, and the sandstorm blows over them, what can you do?"
Father was nagging, he had already disposed of the corn stalks, turned around and went to store the water in various containers to keep it airtight, while Aqiu and his mother went to prepare meals.
It is said to be food, but it is actually some newly distributed dried earthworms, plus some well-preserved cornmeal and sun-dried corn cobs.
"Fortunately, the food was distributed recently, otherwise the corn would suffer, and I don't know what to do next."
In the gloomy atmosphere, the family was about to start eating, when they heard someone outside the door, and the sound of a machine.
Father put down the old rice bowl in his hand, and walked to the door vigilantly. He didn't open the door until he confirmed that the people outside were not like bad people, and they didn't even come here for his own family.
Outside the door was a long line of excavators neatly lined up, followed by a group of people wearing hard hats, who seemed to be discussing something and kept pointing at the ground.
Ah Qiu's father knew these people, not the people who really knew them, but the clothes they were wearing, and the logo on them was the same as the doctors who gave them free consultations some time ago.
One of the doctors also said that his daughter's throat could be treated with surgery, and also helped to fill in her name in some special patient care list.
Presumably these people should also be good people.
"What are you doing?"
Ah Qiu's father found a young man standing outside who was also wearing a red hard hat and asked.
The other party glanced at him and said with a smile, "We are looking for a suitable wellhead."
"Wellhead?"
Ah Qiu's father weighed his feet, feeling that something was wrong: "Our area has long since had no groundwater. If you want to dig a well, you have to go to the city."
The young man said: "What we want to drill is a wellhead without water."
"what?"
Ah Qiu's father couldn't understand what kind of thinking this was. What's the use of a well without water?
How come there are still people who specialize in drilling this thing?
As if seeing his confusion, the young man explained: "We don't want to pump water from the ground. On the contrary, we want to pour water into the ground and pour the water back."
"In this way, the groundwater can be replenished, and it will be much more convenient for you to use water in the future, and you can directly fetch water on the spot."
Replenish groundwater?
Ah Qiu's father understood.
Isn't that what it is?
There is no water in the well because the groundwater has been drained. Then they pour water back from the well mouth, can't they replenish the groundwater?
but……
"Where does the water come from?"
The young man's smile suddenly became brighter, and he gritted his white teeth and said, "Brother, if I say that the water is pumped from the South Pole, do you believe it?"
Ah Qiu's father pondered for a moment, staring at the young man in front of him, and asked very studiously: "Where is the South Pole?"
Uh……
The young man was speechless for a moment.
……
Zheng Xu never expected that the man in front of him, who looked only 30 or [-] years old, didn't even know about Antarctica, which made him very surprised.
Suddenly his eyes moved down, and he saw a little girl next to the man's legs, who seemed to be familiar, and seemed to be the little girl who helped him and Captain Yin to guide them when they first came to this time and space.
Zheng Xu raised his eyebrows, and didn't worry about the Antarctic anymore, he reached out and touched the girl's head: "Brother, is this your daughter?"
"Well, her name is Aqiu."
Ah Qiu also stared at Zheng Xu closely at this time, and nodded to him, obviously remembering him.
"Has Qiu gone to school?"
Aqiu's father shook his head: "I want her to go to school, but there is no school on our side, and it would be too far for her to go to other urban areas."
Zheng Xu is not surprised either. It is normal that the renovation work in various places is fast and slow.
"I guess it won't be long before your city is here. When we finish replenishing the water for you, the school should be remodeled. Maybe Ah Qiu is doing well, and he will be a top student in the future..."
Ah Qiu's father rubbed his chin, he was still eager to learn: "What is Xueba?"
Zheng Xu: "..."
A low-lying area tens of kilometers away from Zheng Xu.
Zhang Tianyuan and Yuan Heguang are here at this time.
Now it has changed from a desert to a construction site, and nearly a hundred excavators are working here.
The methods of artificial groundwater recharge can be roughly divided into two categories.
One is the surface infiltration method, that is, the water that needs to be recharged is diverted to low-lying seepage depressions, ponds, sand pits, and specially excavated ditches, canals, and pools, so that the water can infiltrate through the bottom to replenish the phreatic aquifer.
One is the well-irrigated recharge method, which uses existing pumping wells or specially built water injection wells to recharge water into the ground, which is what Zheng Xu is doing.
And what they practice here is naturally the first method.
Now these excavators are digging seepage ponds designed to allow water to seep back into the ground.
There are at least hundreds of construction sites like this in China, all of which are prepared for water storage.
This is also the most suitable method for interstellar time and space after research.
Otherwise, if the water from the acquired time and space is introduced into the ground, it would be too wasteful for the desertification to be serious now.
And building a special sealed canal is time-consuming and labor-intensive.
So the engineering team set their sights on the ground.
When the terrain and geological conditions are suitable, the subsurface aquifer can be used directly as a natural underground water reservoir.
In the wet season, when the surface water source is abundant, the water is stored in the aquifer void, and a fairly good storage condition can be obtained.
Moreover, since the movement of groundwater is relatively slow and evaporative excretion is also very limited, it is not difficult to successfully recycle most of the artificially replenished water in the future as long as it is properly allocated.
According to the current exploration and the geographical and hydrological data left before, the Mutual Rescue Society and domestic engineering personnel have marked all the "underground reservoirs" across the country.
In the Antarctic of the day after tomorrow, the ice crushing factory has been in operation for a long time, and a large number of ice cubes have been prepared. As long as the seepage pool here is dug, the ice cubes can be sent directly to let them melt naturally and infiltrate Ground……
Chapter 357 Three Months
half a month later.
In the infiltration pond selected by the engineering team, the excavator is still expanding the excavated area.
And in the center of the pool, there are icebergs piled up one after another. These icebergs are high and low, but the shortest one is more than ten meters high. Under their refraction, the scorching sun becomes cold here.
And because of the massive melting of these icebergs, the ground changed from the previous dryness and became muddy and difficult to walk. Some areas even directly turned into lakes. Let alone people, ordinary tracked vehicles could not pass.
Only mechs can work in this environment.
Large mechs can even walk in the environment like the bottom of the sea, so the little bit of mud right now is of course nothing.
Of course, it would be too expensive to call a large mecha just for this job, and the mecha is too big, so it is actually not convenient to work.
Surrounded by icebergs are actually small mechs less than 20 meters high.
These mechas are all samples designed by Mako Mori. They can not only be operated by one person, but also generally have good performance and battery life.
If it is not for the use of more system materials for transformation, by the way, waiting for the special building "Mecha Factory", it has already been launched on a large scale.
It is precisely because of the high degree of completion of these small mechs that they were assigned to work here.
blah blah!
Raleigh Beckett stood in the mech cabin, controlling the arm of the mecha. It was supposed to be a small plasma cannon, but now it was temporarily changed to an impact drill...
He listened to the sudden sound of drilling outside, and watched the ice cubes more than ten meters high outside being shattered by his operation.
Raleigh took two steps back, avoiding the large chunks of broken ice that fell from the iceberg, and while standing in front of the space-time tunnel waiting for the next piece of ice, he couldn't help but sighed.
He joined No. 0 support team before, thinking that he would continue to fight monsters in No. 0 time and space. Who knew that he didn't fight a few monsters now, but he was transferred here to work as an ice breaker.
He has broken the ice here for ten days, and his heart is as cold as these ice cubes.
Behind Raleigh, seeing that he had finished crushing the ice cubes, other larger mechs came over, nailed them into the ice cubes with the catapult hooks on their arms, and dragged the ice cubes away. to further afield.
The pilots of these mechs are the three Wei brothers...
These days, they have been acting in this way, and the results are remarkable.
The groundwater reserves in this area have increased significantly, and together with the recharge work around the city, the wells in the city can now get water.
After staring blankly for a while, Raleigh saw another large block of ice being pushed over from the space-time tunnel in front of him.
Opposite is the Antarctic in Houtian time and space, and his new partner Zhang Qing is the one who is responsible for pushing the ice.
Raleigh turned on the hammer drill again and started a new round of work.
On the periphery of the ice crushing site, a large group of scholars of various specialties gathered, mostly studying paleontology. These scholars regarded the site as a workshop, and carried out detection research on the spot, and the surrounding area was lively.
These mecha pilots in Raleigh have been busy in the interstellar space-time for nearly three months, playing the role of "Wang Wang" every day, responsible for crushing ice in various infiltration pools, and then it is the turn of the newly trained mecha pilots to go into battle , gradually replacing them.
The time has come to December 2067 in interstellar time and space.
During these three months, interstellar time and space have not changed much.
Yuan Heguang has been promoting the restart of industry while ensuring social stability. Thanks to the replenishment of groundwater, water sources in various places have gradually begun to recover.
Not to mention industrial water, but at least domestic water is no problem.
Moreover, the food in Legendary Time and Space also ushered in the first bumper harvest after sowing. These grains were basically provided to Wandering, Finch, and Interstellar Time and Space in the form of loans through economic and trade organizations.
Among them, Interstellar Time and Space takes the bulk.
After all, the famine is the worst here.
Moreover, in order to alleviate the famine, Yuan Heguang opened warehouses to release grain, and the grain reserves were greatly reduced. Now there is an urgent need for a large amount of grain supplements.
You have food in your hands, don't panic.
In short, although there are still problems of one kind or another, under the coordination of Yuan and Guang, the atmosphere of slow recovery is already very obvious.
Moreover, Yuan Heguang has already set his sights abroad. The visiting groups sent by the Mutual Rescue Association and him have already set off in various directions, preparing to investigate the current situation in various countries on the spot.
In contrast, North America is experiencing a heated situation.
With the assistance of the Mutual Rescue Society, the total storage of granaries occupied by the hungry people has reached 900 million tons, and the number of people has reached 700 million.
In other words, in the eyes of the opposite side, there are now 700 million rice worms living in their granaries.
