So Bao Yu wondered if he could do the same as the village and build a water storage well.
After observing the direction of the rain today, she felt that this method was worth a try.
After returning home, she shared her idea with the rest of the team. After discussion, they unanimously decided to give it a try.
After the rain stopped, Bao Yu joined the others in inquiring about the water storage well.
Initially, Bao Yu's idea was to directly construct an underground reservoir, but this was rejected for a simple reason: insufficient funding.
Underground reservoirs are too expensive, and also time-consuming and labor-intensive. The team's idea is to help the villagers build more of these water storage tanks to make it easier for them to use water.
However, while water storage tanks are easy to build, their routine maintenance and rainwater collection efficiency are not perfect. Moreover, each water storage tank can pose a safety hazard to the village.
The situation suddenly reached a stalemate, and the viewers who were watching the show were also caught in a difficult predicament:
[It's just money, right? The program has set up a donation channel. With so many people in our country, even if everyone only donates one yuan, it'll be enough!]
Yes, a donation channel has been opened!
Yes, we are willing to donate money!
Donations cannot be made casually. If the proper procedures are not followed, it constitutes illegal fundraising. Even if your intentions are good, it is still unacceptable.
Because initially, they were using the program's profits for charity, which was a spontaneous act. But if they were to accept donations from everyone, then they would be considered a charity organization.
Unlike last time in Xiaoyang Village, where the large sum of money came from the profits of the big movie, this time there was no source of profit.
Just when he was at his wit's end, a phone call came to Sun Zhibin's cell phone.
It turns out that their variety show appearance was not only being watched by the general public, but also attracted the attention of leaders.
So, it was like having a green light given, and things went much more smoothly afterward. Because, including everyone's donations, as well as the 2 million yuan that the production team and Bao Yu had, a total of 200 million yuan in donations were raised.
In addition, the leadership directly arranged for the most professional construction team to conduct on-site inspections and studies.
Finally, the final solution was determined.
This time, they plan to build an underground reservoir in a depression in the middle of several villages.
The reason it's an underground reservoir is to minimize water evaporation. It doesn't rain for one or two months at a time here, and the weather is very dry. If it were a surface reservoir, a lot of water would be lost.
Considering that the rainwater collected here would carry soil, the construction team came up with a solution to make it easier to clean the soil from the ground.
Pipes are buried at intervals at the bottom of the reservoir. After the water settles, the soil will settle to the bottom. The underground pumping mode is turned on to slowly suck the soil into the pipes and pump it out.
The pumped-out wastewater will enter another small pool, where it will undergo sedimentation again. The clean water will then be returned to the large pool, and the sludge will be disposed of.
This project was enormous and incredibly demanding. It took almost a year to complete.
Because the matter attracted attention from higher authorities, it became a key project, and Bao Yu, being an outsider, did not participate much in the specific operations and construction.
On the day the project was completed, Bao Yu returned to the village and discovered that everything had changed after a year.
