With Pinxixi in hand, I have a supermarket in the Changzheng!

There are no big rivers near Huidong County, and it is very difficult for villagers to get drinking water.

We can only wait for the occasional rain and collect the rainwater in the water cellar for the family to drink.

Rainwater stored in water cellars for a long time will inevitably acquire a strange smell. These yellow and smelly rainwater are as precious as life to them.

Zhou Yue learned through the system that there was a water shortage not only in the 30s, but also in modern Huidong County.

Although we have more advanced drilling technology and the South-to-North Water Diversion Project, Huidong’s water resources are still very tight.

The local water company recommends that people take a shower two to four times a month in the summer to save water.

There will be a water outage for a few hours after 12 o'clock every night.

Water use is restricted in modern times, not to mention how difficult life was in the 30s.

Today's dinner was still plain water and steamed buns. While the soldiers were eating, several children came over.

The children stared at the water in everyone's hands and licked their cracked lips.

“They are so pitiful!”

Brother Zhou Xing handed his bowl to them, and the kids took turns holding the bowl and drinking from it in small sips.

When one child was drinking, the other children looked at him eagerly, which was really pitiful.

Looking at them, Zhou Xing thought of his own childhood. Although he didn’t have enough food to eat or warm clothes to wear, he always had enough water.

The Red Army soldiers rested in Huidong County for one night and were about to leave the next day.

The Red Army wanted to help the villagers due to the extreme water shortage here, but they had no way to do so.

They can open warehouses and release grain to poor areas, but they cannot get water to water-scarce areas.

But for Zhou Yue, this is not a difficult task.

[Tongzi, how many people are there in Huidong County? ]

The system checked the data and replied, [The current population of Huidong County is 4526! ]

The water in the mall is not valuable. One ton of drinkable tap water is only 2 points.

It is estimated that it will take many years before Huidong’s water shortage is alleviated.

Therefore, the amount of water supplied this time will be huge, enough to meet the living needs of more than 4,000 people in the entire county for many years.

Moreover, there will be more and more people in the county town, and the water consumption will also increase.

If too much water is provided at one time, people will not cherish it when seeing how much water there is, and the water bill will become higher and higher.

So Zhou Yue did not plan to build some large reservoirs.

"This wild shepherd's purse is delicious when used to make dumplings!"

"I also got some purslane and will make a cold dish for the kids when I get home!"

"Let's go to the hill in the east next time. I heard there are a lot of wild vegetables there!"

A large group of village women from Huidong County came to the mountains to pick wild vegetables, carrying baskets in their hands.

"Hey! There seems to be water there!"

An old lady who was walking in front screamed and ran quickly to the front.

"Auntie Sun, are you dazzled? Where does the water come from in this mountain?"

"That's right! If it doesn't rain, where will the water come from?"

Aunt Sun, who was running in the front, had already seen the whole picture here clearly.

There is a large pit at a low altitude here, and water is constantly bubbling up from the ground.

The water level in this pit was seen rising little by little.

"Come on! There's really water here!"

"There's really water?!"

The village women carrying baskets looked at each other and hurried forward.

"Strange! Really strange!"

"I was just here on this mountain a few days ago, and there was clearly no water!"

A thirsty old lady scooped up some water with her hands and drank it down in several big gulps.

"This water doesn't have any strange taste, it even tastes a bit sweet!"

A woman in her early thirties also took a few big gulps and tears came out of her eyes after she finished drinking.

"This year, my family didn't have much water left. I thought I was going to suffer. Thank God for that!"

"Oh my god! The water is rising so fast! We have to scoop it into the bucket quickly, otherwise it will overflow and it will be a pity!"

This big pit here will be filled with water in about half an hour at the current water outflow rate.

"Quick! Let's go back and get the bucket!"

They went home one after another to get buckets of water and told people in the county the good news.

Everyone came to the mountain excitedly with buckets and ladles.

People who came to fetch water lined up in a long queue. Everyone's face was filled with joy when they saw this water source given by God.

Aunt Sun, who was the first to discover the water source, stood in front to maintain order.

"Everyone can come and fetch water, but don't waste it! Store it in the water cellar when you go back!"

Although there was a long queue, it didn't take too much time for everyone to get water.

Because its water output is really large, the water output set by Zhou Yue is about twice that of an ordinary tap.

She designed two such water sources, one at the easternmost end and one at the westernmost end.

People will cherish this way of discharging water more than directly giving it to the endless lake.

Because we don’t know when the water will run out, and the water supply is limited, everyone has to use it sparingly.

Fortunately, the water flow is relatively large, which is enough for daily life in this village of more than 4,000 people.

The only drawback is that it is a bit troublesome to get water, and everyone needs to get water at different times.

But for these villagers who are struggling in the sea of ​​water shortage, this is not a big deal at all.

【Ding Dong! Account points added! 】

【Ding Dong! Account points added! 】

【Ding Dong! Account points added! 】

【………】

One of the three greatest joys in life is rain after a long drought. The villagers who have been suffering from water shortage for a long time got these two sources of water.

The gratitude in my heart was about to overflow, and the points in Zhou Yue’s account soared.
