Chapter 340 Get the Buckets Ready
Han Ying and her three companions made four trips back and forth before the water tank in the RV was filled up.
In fact, it is impossible to fill the water tank with 4 round trips.
However, when Han Ying filled the water tank, she also quietly put some water from the space talisman into it.
Others didn't know how much water was left in the water tank, so they just assumed that there was still a lot of water in it.
Han Ying had previously poured more than ten tons of water into the well, and the combined capacity of the three water towers in the small building was about 5.5 tons.
The four of them carried almost 1 ton to the RV.
"The water level is dropping so fast, Xiao Han, do you think it will reach the bottom?"
Wu Tingfang was shining a flashlight into the well.
"I think it's almost done. Lu Yuan said the well is only about 50 meters deep. It seems that there won't be much water left to pump up."
The water tank on this side of the house was full, and daybreak was almost here, so they planned to fill up the last of these buckets, take them back to the RV, and go straight back.
By the time it was pumped, the water had become turbid.
"Do you think there will be water in this well tomorrow? Should we leave some water? I heard that if the well is pumped too dry, there will be no water."
Looking at the water that had become turbid, Lin Ting felt a little worried.
It is not easy to find a well with water. If the source is cut off because they pump too dry, it would be a waste of time.
"Is there such a saying? It's almost daybreak, and our barrels are almost full anyway."
It is not clear whether there is such a statement.
However, given the current depth of the well, it is definitely impossible to pump out water on its own, and it is all up to Han Ying to let the water be pumped out manually.
There are still two buckets that are not full. When these two buckets are full, there should only be a pool of mud and water left, which is not a pity.
After packing up, everyone picked up buckets and water bags and walked towards the RV.
Halfway through the journey, a rustling sound came from the walkie-talkie that Han Ying placed in her backpack.
Letting the others go first, Lu Yuan put down the water in his hand and took the walkie-talkie out of Han Ying's backpack.
Ye Wei's voice came from inside, "Comrade Han, it's almost dawn. Did something happen to you? Why haven't you come back yet?"
"We found a well that still had some water, so we drew some water and are now ready to go back."
"Get your buckets ready. I'll give you some water when we get back."
Han Ying did not intend to conceal the matter of the well water. After all, the well only had water in it for a few days.
After a few days, there was no water in the well. When the official people arrived and wanted to dig a well, they would definitely think of this well that still had water first.
When the time comes, if we dig the well deeper, we should still be able to get water.
"What? You found a well that still produces water?"
Hearing Han Ying's voice, Ye Wei stood up from his chair excitedly.
The two of them searched more than twenty wells, but not a single one had water.
Unexpectedly, these people found a well that was still producing water just one day after they arrived.
What kind of incredible luck is this?
"Well, we found it in Hongmei Village, the same village you came to help clear the way for before."
When they were clearing the road yesterday, the two soldiers also told them that it was their first time there.
In other words, during their stay in Jiangcheng, they have not been to Hongmei Village.
Human power is limited, and Ye Wei and his team are only two people.
Every day we have to guard against attacks by stray animals and complete the tasks assigned by our superiors.
So they could only start from the stronghold and then slowly spread out to the periphery.
After all, there is a limit to what two people can do, so it is normal that they have not found Hongmei Village during this period of time.
After hanging up the intercom, Han Ying and Lu Yuan quickly caught up with the people in front.
Back in the RV, we used a pump to pump all the water in the bucket into the water tower.
Otherwise, the RV will definitely bump on the road, and it will be a waste if the water is spilled.
Not to mention, on this last trip everyone brought water back together and managed to fill the water tower to one-third of the water level.
When they returned to their temporary residence, two soldiers stood at the door and looked out.
The sun had already risen, but a temporary awning had been erected in front of the building.
"Captain Xiaoye, give me the bucket."
After getting off the car, Han Ying extended her hand to Ye Wei who was standing at the door.
"Thanks."
Ye Wei took out two buckets that were placed behind the door.
If such a bucket is filled to 90%, it can hold nearly 30 liters.
Seeing the two large buckets of water, Ye Wei and Zhao Lei couldn't bear to take their eyes away.
These people must be their lucky stars, right?
In just one day, they had enough water.
With this water, I can finally wipe my face after not washing it for more than half a month.
After giving the water to the two soldiers, Lu Yuan took out a piece of paper and handed it to Ye Wei.
"Can you help us find a door while you're out these few days? Here are the dimensions. Once we find it, we'll exchange it with you for water or supplies."
After taking the paper from Lu Yuan, the two soldiers took a look at it and then said, "We will keep an eye on it. You don't need to exchange it. You have given enough water. We will tell you when we find the door."
After putting the paper away, Ye Wei and Zhao Lei carried the water back to their residence.
After the two soldiers left, Han Ying and her friends also carried two water bags and two buckets in their hands and went upstairs.
When Lei Minghu was waiting in the RV, the meal had already been prepared.
Each person took one portion upstairs to eat.
Back at 503, the two people and the dog went straight into the room.
Lu Yuan took out a piece of cloth to fill the gap in the door, and Han Ying took out the swimming pool and ice cubes.
Then he took Lu Yuan and Gou Zi into the space.
Enter the space and eat directly on the rooftop of the villa.
He put the portion made by Lei Minghu into the space symbol and took out what they wanted to eat.
I haven't had a good meal for a while, so the table was full of food.
The dog's three food bowls were also full.
After finishing her meal, Han Ying went to see the mutant soybean that she had received from Zhuang Zi.
She had already inserted it into the soil in the space and planted it near the mutant kumquat.
I don’t know whether the cuttings were successful, but at least it doesn’t seem to have withered for the time being.
As to whether it will grow roots and settle down in space, it is not clear yet.
After looking at the two mutant plants, Han Ying walked into the field.
Lu Yuan is picking watermelons.
Tap them lightly twice one by one to make sure they are ripe before picking them.
Han Ying had bought more than one million kilograms of watermelons before, but the amount consumed in the past two years was not as much as what was grown in the space fields.
Although on average one eats at least one watermelon every day.
There is about an acre of dandelions planted next to the watermelon field.
Han Ying planned to pick it before it bloomed, otherwise once it bloomed, if she moved around a little, the flowers would probably fly everywhere.
