Chapter 581 Drilling a Well
Zhou Ziwen readily agreed to host the banquet.
Not to mention that it was Wang Hongbing who asked personally, even if he was an ordinary person, he would agree.
If you have money and don't make it, you're a bastard, especially if it's a quick buck.
It only takes an hour or two to cook a meal.
I can earn several dollars an hour or two, which is higher than the salary of factory workers.
After confirming the banquet time, Zhou Ziwen did not stay in the guard team for long, because it was about to get off work and he was ready to go back to prepare dinner.
But it was already late. When he returned home and just took out the steamed buns he had made in the morning to steam, the two sisters came back.
"Brother Ziwen, how did you do on the exam? Was everything okay?"
As soon as she entered the door, Chen Qiaoyi started yelling.
"No problem, the results will be out tomorrow."
Zhou Ziwen nodded calmly.
"Hehe, that's great."
Upon hearing this, Chen Qiaoyi and Chen Shiying were very happy, and Tang Yaoyao beside them also had a smile on her face.
Zhou Ziwen also knew why they were so happy.
Compared with health workers, doctors with medical qualifications are regular soldiers and are of a higher level.
With this certificate, you can go to other places and interview at the hospital in the future.
When Zhou Ziwen agreed to let Wu Dagang work as a hygienist, he actually had this consideration in mind.
As long as you become a medical worker, you can take the exam to become a doctor and join the regular army.
Although with his abilities, it doesn't matter whether he has a medical qualification certificate or not.
But this certificate is still very useful at times and can avoid a lot of trouble.
For example, if you encounter an emergency in the future and have to save someone, this certificate will be very useful.
While eating, Zhou Ziwen talked about digging a well.
"Can we dig a well in our yard?"
Chen Shiying asked.
"Sure, I've seen it."
Zhou Ziwen answered.
"That's great. Brother Ziwen won't have to go to the village to fetch water anymore."
Hearing this, Chen Qiaoyi was even happier than Zhou Ziwen.
"yes!"
Zhou Ziwen was also very happy.
Now he has made this house very nice, all that is missing is a well.
"Brother Ziwen, if the well is dug, can I use it later?"
Tang Yaoyao asked expectantly.
"Sure, feel free to use it. You're welcome."
Zhou Ziwen nodded readily.
Their place is different from the Youth League Home, there are only a few of them in total.
One well is more than enough.
"Thank you, Brother Ziwen."
Tang Yaoyao thanked him sweetly.
"You're welcome."
Zhou Ziwen waved his hand indifferently.
After lunch, Zhou Ziwen took a nap.
When the announcement for work sounded, he also got up from the kang.
But he did not go to work. Instead, he stayed at home and prepared to dig a well.
After taking out the tools at home, Zhou Ziwen started working.
The location he chose to dig the well was right next to the laundry trough.
He didn't need to do any preparation, he just drew a circle with the hoe.
This circle is where the well is dug.
Because there were no high-tech products, digging wells in this era was just hard work.
In order to facilitate operation, the digging area is a bit large.
For example, the circle drawn by Zhou Ziwen has a diameter of at least three meters.
As for the depth, Zhou Ziwen estimated that it was at least twenty meters.
The most important thing about digging a well is to choose a good location, and the actual operation is not complicated.
It is said to be digging a well, but in fact it is just digging a well.
Zhou Ziwen is strong and has good physical strength, so digging a well is not difficult for him.
After determining the location, Zhou Ziwen did not delay and picked up a shovel and started digging on the spot.
Zhou Ziwen was quick and dug a big hole in no time.
However, digging a well is different from working in the fields. The deeper you dig, the more difficult it is.
Especially when digging below one meter, people have to stand in the pit, which makes the operation a bit troublesome.
Fortunately, Zhou Ziwen has a foundation in full-level Bajiquan, so even if the operation is a bit awkward, it doesn't have much impact.
With his level of boxing skills, he is very good at exerting force.
Although the activity space is small, it does not affect the drilling speed.
But when he dug deeper, it became less convenient to operate.
Because the excavated soil needs to be put into baskets and then transported out.
Every time a basket is full, Zhou Ziwen has to carry it back and forth. If it were someone else, they might not even be able to straighten their backs after going back and forth like this.
At this moment, Zhou Ziwen's physical fitness was revealed.
He is strong and in good health. He doesn't feel tired even if he works all day. He is more like an animal than an animal.
If it weren't for this physique, he wouldn't be able to deal with Chen Shiying and Chen Qiaoyi.
And he still had the energy to change places in the middle of the night and spend half the night with Shen Zhaodi.
Zhou Ziwen achieved great results in the following afternoon. When he was about to finish work, he had already dug five or six meters deep.
According to the current progress, the excavation will be completed in a few days.
However, the deeper you dig, the more difficult it is to operate, and it will be more difficult to get in and out, and it will take more time.
"Wow, Brother Ziwen, you've dug so deep?"
Soon, the two sisters returned home from work and the first thing they saw was the hole in the yard.
"Well, you guys are back so early?"
This afternoon, Zhou Ziwen was so busy digging a well that he forgot about the time.
I saw the two sisters and only realized what was happening after hearing the broadcast outside.
"Yes, we are all off work. Brother Ziwen, you should take a rest too. You have been exhausted all day."
Chen Qiaoyi said with heartache.
"Okay, then move aside, I'm coming up."
Zhou Ziwen spoke.
"Um."
After they moved aside, Zhou Ziwen didn't bother to pack up his things. He just pulled the hemp rope in front of him and started climbing up.
Zhou Ziwen was agile and climbed out of the well in just a few moves.
After climbing up, he pulled the rope and pulled the basket full of soil out of the well.
"Ziwen, take a rest first. Look at you, you are covered in mud. Go take a shower first!"
Like a virtuous daughter-in-law, Chen Shiying patted the dust off his body with a towel.
"Well, I'll take a break first."
After working for a whole afternoon, Zhou Ziwen felt a little reluctant to move.
"Brother Ziwen, have a cup of tea!"
As soon as Zhou Ziwen lay down on the recliner, Chen Qiaoyi came over with an enamel teacup.
"Okay, my wife is really nice."
Zhou Ziwen praised with a smile.
"Hehe, of course."
Chen Qiaoyi raised her neck, and the smile on her lips could hardly be suppressed.
After resting for a while, Zhou Ziwen began to clean up the battlefield.
We dug a lot of soil while digging the well today, and it will all be piled up in the yard and needs to be cleaned up.
This is easy for Zhou Ziwen.
Two large baskets were filled with the food, one basket at a time, and piled up behind the house.
When he has free time, he plans to plant something in the back.
By the time he had almost finished cleaning up, the Chen sisters had also prepared dinner.
After dinner, Zhou Ziwen had just taken a short rest when Zhou Chaoyang came to his house excitedly.
"Brother Zhou, guess what I heard?"
You can tell from his excited expression that this is a big news.
