Storing water to combat drought is a precautionary measure.
However, with less water, it evaporates easily in hot weather. So, as long as the reservoir is big enough and a shade net is put on top, and a way is found to bring the water from the well below up the mountain in the future, there will be no need to carry water anymore.
At this time.
Zhao Xiaotong was glad that he had sprained his ankle, otherwise his shoulders would have been chafed raw from carrying water every day.
Although Zhang Shufang grumbled every day, at least she cooked and served her sweet potatoes, rice, and cornbread.
These past few days, Zhang Shufang has been too lazy to target Lin Yuxi. She's already annoyed enough by Zhao Xiaotong every day, and having to cook for her would only make things worse for her.
After the reservoir was built, the water inside was also filled.
As the commune director, Chen Dajiang personally went to the loess slope to give a passionate speech.
Because everyone must have had grievances during this period, with planting trees, digging holes, and carrying water.
The workload of a few days is equivalent to that of half a month.
"Everyone has worked hard during this time, but I want everyone to know that all the efforts during this period have not been in vain!"
Chen Dajiang gave Yang Daniu a wink, signaling him to turn on the switch.
After a few days of getting used to it, he has become familiar with the machine and knows the general layout of the switches by heart.
The electric motor is connected to only one water pipe, in order to ensure the machine's service life and lifespan.
Everyone stood on the loess slope, not understanding what Chen Dajiang wanted to do.
Immediately afterwards, a torrent of rain poured down from the sky.
"It's...raining?"
Some people looked up at the sky in disbelief; the sun was shining brightly, so where did the rain come from?
Upon closer inspection, it turned out that the water was being sprayed from the nozzle machine.
Zhu Fengru, standing at the bottom of the slope, stared wide-eyed at the water spraying from the black nozzle.
This... it's actually spraying water?
So, is Lin Yuxi working on this all this time?
"This is called a water-saving irrigation sprayer. As long as you put this water pipe into the water storage tank, it can spray water continuously."
As Chen Dajiang spoke, he kept observing the expressions on everyone's faces.
Some people are naturally happy that they don't need to be watered.
"The loess slope is too far from the water source for irrigation projects to reach it. The only solution is this water pump. Comrade Lin Yuxi built this water pump all by herself. From now on, no one will need to water the plants anymore..."
Chen Dajiang's words were all aimed at elevating Lin Yuxi's image, especially highlighting her connection to her hometown.
Lin Yuxi stood below. Actually, it wasn't difficult to get drinking water from the well, but it would require digging a pit and burying it, as well as making a water pump to draw it up directly.
The main problem is the poor terrain.
Suddenly, the sprinkler system made by Lin Yuxi became famous throughout the village.
From now on, all we need to do is carry water up the mountain; we won't have to water each plant on the slope anymore, which will greatly reduce the workload.
Even when Wang Dagang came back, he said at the dinner table that Zhao Xiaotong was sitting in the room eating potatoes and sweet potatoes, which tasted bland.
All I could hear were praises of Lin Yuxi. What water-saving irrigation sprayer? Was it that black machine from that day?
