4895. Chapter 4895 Pick up fish! Kelp! Crab!
The reason for the frequent and timely rains is not only due to the season, but also due to their luck.
But this probability is already very high...
The two of them removed all the dirt and poured out the water in the bathtub to fill it up again.
Clothes would get wet anyway, so Jing Jiaren wore only a men's shirt, sat naked on the stone with her feet curled up, and looked at Ximen Longting below... cleaning utensils.
The tables and chairs have become stained with dust over time.
Especially their tire bed, Ximen Longting wiped it carefully.
Every time it rains, some fish will be washed up on the beach, especially shells, there are so many.
Jing Jiaren couldn't help but carry a bucket and pick up fish! Kelp! Crabs on the beach!
I accidentally stepped into a puddle and it went up to my knees.
If it were deeper, wouldn't she fall down?
Jing Jiaren frowned and suddenly had a thought——
If we dig sand pits, mud pits, etc., can they also store water?
Even if the water drains out, it will take a long time.
As soon as this method was proposed, it was immediately recognized by Boss Ximen.
Ximen Longting found an iron lever and looked at the rain getting smaller and smaller. He estimated that it would stop raining in less than an hour.
Digging the beach is quick because the beach is soft.
But at the same time, if water is stored in the sandpit, it will also drain away quickly.
On the contrary, digging a mud pit is too slow, and some mud is very hard.
Jing Jiaren made another suggestion: "Then we can dig a big sand pit and cover it with a layer of mud to make it tighter.
This proposal was affirmed by Ximen Longting...
"Damn it, Jing Jiaren, why didn't you come up with your brain earlier!"
"Who called you a sperm~worm~on the brain..."
She didn't have time to think more about it.
"I'm going to dig a sand pit, don't move!"
"The sand pit is very soft. I'll dig it... Can you dig out the mud and bring it over to fill it?"
In fact, you don’t need too much mud, just use their tire cart to dig out a load, and that’s probably enough.
They first found a good terrain, a sandy land with relatively high terrain, where even heavy rain and waves could not wash up - to prevent sea water from washing over and destroying the freshwater area.
Jing Jiaren dug with a small iron pick. The sand was very messy and it was easy to dig. After a while, she dug a small hole.
While she was digging, she saw the rainwater falling down and forming a small puddle.
…
In fact, after it rains, water often accumulates on uneven ground...some small puddles remain there for many days.
And when she was building a sandcastle, she found that the place where she dug the hole was filled with water, and it took a long time for it to evaporate.
In other words, the bigger the hole dug, the more rain will fall and the longer it will last.
At least, you can survive until the next rainy day, and so on.
Jing Jiaren dug and dug and started laughing to herself...
Ximen Longting came back after a while, and what he brought was not soil, but bricks and concrete blocks from collapsed buildings...
The ones he chose were thin and smooth in surface, and some were quite large in size.
Jing Jiaren immediately gave a thumbs up and praised: "This is good. I was just thinking about whether the soil will mix the water very dirty when it meets the water."
Ximen Longting dragged three trucks over and piled a lot. When it was almost enough, he joined the excavation project.
His movements were much faster than hers, several times faster than hers!
He has been doing excavation work these days and has gained experience!
An hour later, a small pool over 3 meters wide was dug out!
Chapter completed!
