It is naturally not a rare thing for Zhuang Haiyang and others who often float on the sea. It is just that the islands we come tonight are not the kind of uninhabited islands. In some cases, we still need to avoid it.

Except for Hong Wei and another security officer who stayed, the rest of the crew members who boarded the island on a lifeboat all returned to the fishing boat to rest without exception. Xu Hui and others naturally did not have any taboos, and they also came to inspect the work.

Under the leadership of the island's chief, Zhuang Haiyang briefly checked the situation of the island. The land area of ​​this island is not even as good as Nanshan Island. The area available for construction is not small, but there is very little land available for planting.

Most of the land is rocky with reef structure. It is possible to build houses on such rocks, but it is naturally unlikely to think of growing vegetables. Even if you come from the inland soil, it is difficult to grow anything.

After checking, when he returned to the outpost to prepare for rest, Xu Hui also said curiously: "Ocean, how is the situation?"

"I didn't look very carefully! However, there are several places on the island that can still be reclaimed as vegetable fields. The most important situation now is to find relatively reliable freshwater resources. Without freshwater, it is difficult to reclaim vegetable fields!"

"Yes! Although we have many islands in the sea area under our jurisdiction, there are not many islands that are truly suitable for garrison. However, in the current situation, we must strengthen the actual control of surrounding sea areas. Some constructions cannot be done without it!"

Zhuang Haiyang naturally knew the difficulties that Xu Hui mentioned. With a long coastline, it is difficult to achieve actual control by relying on the normalized cruise of the naval fleet alone. Sometimes, the only way is to rely on the nearby island troops.

Once a suspicious crew member is found, the outpost stationed in the nearby waters can be immediately driven away or warned. For the naval fleet, sailing above the sea and cruising alone may take several days.

Sometimes, the suspicious ships invade again shortly after the cruise fleet leaves. In this case, only by strengthening the actual control of the surrounding waters can we ensure the safety of coastal defense and prevent other ships from invading easily.

Zhuang Haiyang, who knew these, could only say, "Company Commander, don't worry too much. There are always more solutions than difficulties. Since I have come, you give me a name for an expert. If things cannot be done, I will be very embarrassed!"

After saying this with a smile, Zhuang Haiyang did not talk much to Xu Hui and others. He returned to the room arranged for him to rest. In the early morning, when most of them were resting, Zhuang Haiyang quickly walked out of the outpost.

The sentry on duty also received a notice in advance. Seeing that Zhuang Haiyang was about to go out, he also said enthusiastically: "Squad Leader Zhuang, why did you get up so early? Are you going out?"

"Well! I'm used to getting up early and exercising, and I like to go swimming a few laps in the morning. You keep standing guard, I'll go outside."

After chatting with the sentry for a few words, Zhuang Haiyang came to the island pier, took off his coat, and jumped into the sea directly under the gaze of the sentry. Although the sentry was a little puzzled, he knew that Zhuang Haiyang should not be in any danger.

From what they learned last night, the three people staying at the outpost were all veterans from the army. Although Zhuang Haiyang, who was led, looked very young, was invited by the superiors to improve the outpost environment for them.

For these sentries, if they have the opportunity to eat the vegetables they grow, they will feel very accomplished. Even if they sometimes encounter typhoons or bad sea conditions, and the supply ships cannot arrive on time, they do not have to eat canned food every day.

Stationed on an isolated island far away from the inland, there is no shortage of staple food and meat. What is really lacking is the vegetables that the inland people do not lack. If you stay on the island and don’t eat vegetables for a long time, your body will be prone to problems.

A seemingly small vegetable garden is an important nutritional supply station for these officers and soldiers stationed on the isolated island. If the outpost needs to be expanded, then owning a vegetable garden is of great significance!

He dived into the sea and swam around the sea area where the island is located. Through his mental power, he sensed the water veins of the island. When he saw that the island actually had fresh water veins, it was just that the blockage was quite serious.

Thinking of the limited time, Zhuang Haiyang did not hesitate too much and released Dinghaizhu and threw it into the island's freshwater veins. As Dinghaizhu began to sort out the water veins, Zhuang Haiyang also chose a water source explosion point.

After doing this, looking at Dinghaizhu, which also absorbed a lot of beneficial energy, Zhuang Haiyang also smiled and said, "It seems that if you have the chance, you should still let Dinghaizhu sort out more water veins. There seems to be a lot of energy in this water vein!"

Collating the water veins can effectively improve the ecology of an island. Most of the beneficial energy contained in the water veins is accumulated over time. Taking advantage of the opportunity to sort out, Dinghaizhu can also absorb the energy in it while feeding back the energy.

When the outpost sounded the wake-up call, Hong Wei and others woke up when they heard the call. Seeing the empty bed beside them, Hong Wei also smiled bitterly: "It seems that our alertness needs to be improved. We didn't even notice someone leaving!"

"Yes! I guess, the ocean is going to go to the sea to exercise again!"

Just as the officers and soldiers at the outpost went out for morning exercises as usual, Xu Hui and others who also arrived also saw the disappearing Zhuang Haiyang and were curious: "Lao Hong, where is Haiyang?"

"I just asked the sentinel, and he got up very early. Now, I guess he is slapping in the sea! This is his habit. As long as he goes out of the sea and doesn't go into the sea to exercise for a while in the morning, he will probably feel uncomfortable all over."

When he heard this, the officer accompanying the island was also surprised: "Squad Leader Zhuang is so good at water?"

"Well! He not only has good water quality, but also has good physical fitness. It's okay, depending on the time, he should be back soon."

Sure enough, just as Hong Wei and others acted as spectators and watched the sentry officers and soldiers perform morning exercises, Zhuang Haiyang, who had gone to sea to exercise, had already returned to the outpost with the wet clothes he had changed.

After breakfast, Zhuang Haiyang took Xu Hui and others to a relatively large area near the outpost. After walking around several pieces of land, Zhuang Haiyang pointed to a piece of land and said, "Old Company Commander, do you think this piece of land can be done?"

"You are an expert in this regard. Just say it's OK. But is this location really OK? I see that this piece of land is full of sand and soil. There is not much vegetation nearby, and probably not much fresh water. Can vegetables be grown in this land?"

In front of Zhuang Haiyang, Xu Hui naturally didn't have to hide any real thoughts. He also knew that Zhuang Haiyang's personality was also straightforward. When Dou Wanzi talked about things, they would feel tired.

Listening to what Xu Hui said, the whistleman also looked suspicious, and Zhuang Haiyang smiled and said, "Don't worry, this land seems inconspicuous, but if you improve it, it should be a good land. Lao Hong, give me the shovel!"

Taking the shovel from Hong Wei's hand, Zhuang Haiyang immediately dug a shovel of soil. Seeing that the soil covered on it was indeed more sandy. You can dig a little below, and the soil will appear sticky, which is different from the soil above.

Seeing the digging of soil, it should be suitable for growing vegetables or something, the whistleblower said a little cautiously: "Squad Leader Zhuang, the soil on this piece of land is really good! But there should be no fresh water here, right?"

"Master Qian Shou, don't worry! Since I dare to choose this piece of soil, there is naturally a reason. No matter what, I am also an expert hired by your Chief of Staff. If you can't even get a piece of land, this expert will be unreasonable!"

After saying these words, Zhuang Haiyang looked around the land. Under the gaze of everyone, Zhuang Haiyang began to use the engineer shovel in his hand to dig one of the locations. Not long after digging, he saw the rocks below.

After thinking for a while, he said, "Company Commander, is there something blasting on the outpost?"

"What? Do you want to blow up the stone below?"

"Well! If I read it correctly, there should be a good source of water under this stone. The reason why I can't see fresh water here is that this rock is blocked. As long as I explode it, fresh water should be able to emerge."

"Okay, Xiao Qian, go get some tools and blow up this rock."

Although he thought Zhuang Haiyang's approach was a bit unreliable, but seeing that the other party was not joking, Xu Hui was still willing to believe in the other party's ability. Otherwise, why would he call and ask the other party to come and help solve this difficult problem?

Following Zhuang Haiyang's instructions, after installing the blasting thing, with a loud bang, the seemingly hard rocks split in an instant. What shocked everyone was that when the rocks exploded, a stream of spring water rushed out instantly.

Looking at the water column that was several meters high, everyone present suddenly became excited. The Qian Wushou, who had been a little suspicious before, said excitedly: "Wow, Squad Leader Zhuang, you are really amazing! There is really Danshui here!"

"That's right! Judging from the height of the water column, it is estimated that the amount of fresh water in this spring should be quite large. I suggest that you find a way to dig a water well nearby. You can even use this well as a drinking water for the outpost."

Although the outposts have installed marine desalination equipment, the cost of turning on the equipment is quite large. If there are natural freshwater resources, many problems can be solved. Correspondingly, the outpost officers and soldiers do not need to save money on water as before.

Previously, the Dinghai Bead was used to direct the explosion point of the water vein to this position. As long as there is no major changes in the earth vein and water vein, I believe that the fresh water provided by this water source should be sufficient for the daily use of the outpost.

Looking at the water column gradually falling down, Xu Hui and others also ran over and took a few sips of water with their hands. After confirming that this was indeed fresh water, everyone felt extremely happy. With such sufficient fresh water, are you still afraid that there would be no water to water the ground?

In addition to successfully finding the water source point and solving the problem of insufficient freshwater supply for the outpost, with this water source, there is soil suitable for planting nearby. In the future, Zhuang Haiyang will naturally not need to do it yourself.

Leave two packs of mysterious fertilizers specially brought, and ask the head of Qianshou to mix these fertilizers into the reclaimed soil when reclaiming the vegetable fields. I believe Zhuang Haiyang doesn’t have to worry too much about how to plant and manage the vegetable garden in the future.
