Chapter 271 Water Diversion Project (3)

According to the principle of thermal expansion and contraction, the thick part of the bamboo will expand when heated, and the originally thin end will be stuck deeper.

However, as the heat fades, the part that was originally expanded by the heat will slowly shrink. But because the other parts are already stuck, the details of the shrinkage will automatically adjust according to the thin end. In this way, those invisible small gaps will be properly filled.

"Feel it and see if it's more stable than when you first started." After the bamboo tube in her hand had completely cooled, Xia Tian handed it to Si Ye. "Burn it with fire and see how sturdy it is."

Si Ye took it and examined it carefully. Because the girl's hand strength was limited, he had not had high hopes for its sturdiness. However, it actually felt even more secure than if he had just forced it in with his hands.

"It's really... amazing." Si Ye thought of the "thermal expansion and contraction" principle the girl mentioned, and couldn't help but feel curious. "What principle did you just mention? Why is it so strong?"

Xia Tian explained it to him and also to the audience in the live broadcast room.

[Oh, this already looks familiar! I think it's very practical in daily life~]

[I think so too. It's just a simple change of hot and cold, but I didn't expect it to have such amazing effects when used in different places!]

"As expected of Xia Xia! I knew it. I was worried about the sealing issue just now, but now it's all solved."

[It's really a simple principle, but its effect cannot be underestimated! ]

After listening to Xia Tian's complete explanation, Si Ye also felt that this was not a very profound topic, but the difficulty lay in the clever idea.

In fact, even if other people know this principle, they would not think of applying it in this aspect.

"Xia Xia, your hometown... should be a very prosperous city, right?" He suddenly thought of the girl's life experience.

She comes from a world where she can apply seemingly ordinary principles so skillfully. It is conceivable that the people there must also be full of wisdom in life.

A place with such wisdom in life should not develop too badly.

"Uh... well, it's not about whether it's prosperous or not." Xia Tian couldn't say she was from the future, from a place where productivity was thousands of years ahead of the Beast World Continent, could she? She had to put it another way.

"I think the development of a city or tribe does not depend on how prosperous it is, but on whether the people here are happy and whether they feel a sense of identity with this place." Her hometown is a remote rural area, but she later visited many prosperous big cities, and in the end she still felt that her hometown was the best.

"I can only say that in my hometown, everyone is very hardworking and cherishes their current life. Most people are hopeful about the future, and you rarely hear complaints. Everyone is also very down-to-earth and always thinks about solving any problems they encounter."

Xia Tian thought carefully about the customs and culture of her hometown and found that she had been influenced a lot without realizing it.

For example, we must always be sincere and kind, be tenacious and down-to-earth, and be optimistic and strong.

It was that childhood, coupled with her subsequent complicated life experiences, that gave her the complex personality she has today.

Hearing her say this, Si Ye understood, "Your hometown... is a very excellent place, and so is your race."

These hard-working and down-to-earth qualities are easy to say but hard to do. It is even harder to put them into practice in daily life and truly believe in them.
