After a whole day of tossing, only three of the more than fifty locations marked by Qin Feng were qualified.
Qin Feng is already very satisfied with this result.
That night, the construction team had already started work.
In order to dig deep wells as soon as possible, Qin Feng formulated an eight-hour work system and three shifts.
Deep wells, as the name suggests, should be deep.
Dig all the way down to the aquifer deep underground.
It could be as little as twenty or thirty meters, or as much as more than one hundred meters.
This kind of depth is an almost hell-like test for the engineering capabilities of this era.
Therefore, determining the water storage area is only half the battle. The depth of the water storage area is the key to digging a deep well.
Qin Feng set a standard and only dug down thirty meters.
All aquifers exceeding thirty meters will be abandoned.
Firstly, there is insufficient engineering capacity, and secondly, human life is at stake, and we are worried about a landslide that may occur at any time.
The diameter of the deep well is two meters, making it easier for civilians to dig underneath.
While digging, use stones to reinforce the edge of the well.
A construction team of four hundred people may seem like a lot, but all processes rely on manpower.
Including excavation, reinforcement, transportation, soil delivery, etc...
In addition, in order to work around the clock and shorten the construction period, we have to work in three shifts and spread it out evenly. In fact, the manpower is quite tight.
Qin Feng casually walked to a construction site, looked at the deep well that had been dug seven or eight meters, and said solemnly: "Pay attention to construction safety, safety! Safety!"
Say important things three times.
"You don't have to dig a well, but you can't die. Have you remembered that?"
The civilian laborers present had extremely hot eyes.
At first, when Qin Xiaofu went to the county to hire workers, they couldn't believe it and thought he was a liar.
After all, these days, there are so many scammers, and there are countless examples of imposters.
It wasn't until Qin Xiaofu happily handed over a tael of silver as a deposit that they were willing to try their luck.
Qin Feng's name has long been spread among the people.
Now that I have seen a real person, how can I not be excited?
A man in his early thirties wiped the sweat from his forehead and grinned innocently: "Master Qin, the lives of ordinary people like us are not valuable, only the deep wells dug are valuable."
Upon hearing this, Qin Feng, regardless of whether he was familiar with it or not, raised his leg and kicked the man's butt.
All the people present were stunned.
I thought Mr. Qin was angry, so he was so frightened that he even stopped what he was doing.
After all, Qin Feng is the son of the war minister, so his status lies there.
Under the silent gaze of all the people, Qin Feng pointed at the rough man and yelled: "Bullshit!"
"Who said your life is not valuable? Everything in this world can be measured, but life cannot be measured."
"In my opinion, all of you are Daliang's wealth."
"If you don't care about your own life, who will?"
"Cheer up, everyone. If anyone is injured during the construction process, I will not only scold you, but also beat you!"
"Don't worry, family. You come to help in Changping County. You trust me, Qin Feng. I will naturally send you back intact."
The fear in the eyes of all the people was gradually replaced by excitement.
They have seen countless officials and squires, but this is the first time for a 'noble' like Qin Feng.
After all, in this era when human lives are nothing but trivial matters, who else but Qin Feng would care about the lives of ordinary people?
The rough guy who got kicked was so excited that his face flushed: "Mr. Qin, don't worry, don't say you give us money, even if you do it for nothing, we are happy with it."
"Who among the people of Daliang doesn't know that you are the only person who sincerely helps us ordinary people?"
"One more good person like you will be a blessing to all the people of Daliang."
The other civilian husbands at the scene had equally hot eyes.
That rough man finally said what everyone was thinking.
Qin Feng sighed, he really couldn't be happy: "Every penny is a penny, and you have to collect money after you have done your work. This is a matter of course."
"I have set a ten-day construction period for you. As long as any deep well can be drilled, I will give each of you an extra tael of silver for your hard work."
"Don't worry, this money is not from my own pocket, but from the ministers and sons of Kyoto to sponsor you."
Upon hearing this, a young man in the crowd grinned: "Hahaha, how can such a noble noble be so kind? Mr. Qin, what method did you use to make such an iron rooster pluck its feathers?"
All the people are also full of expectations.
After all, Qin Feng's great achievements in harming his children in Kyoto have already been spread.
Countless people even made this matter a topic of conversation after dinner.
Some storytellers compiled the story of Qin Feng's battle with Gao Taiwei into a storytelling script.
Of course, Qin Feng didn't care about these.
He even glared at the young man: "Talk too much! I am me, and you are you!"
"Although it doesn't sound good, you are civilians after all. If you can bow your head, bow your head. As the saying goes, there will be no need to worry about having no firewood to burn the green hills. The fight between the people and the officials has never ended well. Nowadays, the world is difficult, so we must be careful in our words and deeds. "
Faced with Qin Feng's lesson, all the people were grateful.
The rough man finally saw the legendary Master Qin, and he was so excited that he couldn't close his mouth as soon as he opened it, saying one sentence after another.
Moreover, Mr. Qin is approachable and always responds to the people's questions.
Not like such a high-ranking official, an official as big as a sesame seed or a mung bean, his head would be raised to the sky.
"Sir, the drilling method of this deep water well is something we have never heard of or seen before."
"Folk wells are mostly large wells one foot wide and two feet deep, which rely entirely on water seepage from the surrounding soil. Some wealthy families also dig private wells, which are four feet wide and two feet deep. If they are three feet deep, they are as high as the sky."
"It would be better for you to just run ten feet away and dig. What's the meaning here?"
Qin Feng did not hide it, and explained the secret loudly in front of all the people: "There is no water on the ground, but it does not mean there is no water underground."
"There are several layers underground. Our target is the deep aquifer. As long as the deep aquifer is opened up, the water will be continuous and inexhaustible, and it will be enough to irrigate farmland."
All the people looked at each other in confusion, having no idea about the term "deep water layer".
The rough man scratched his head: "Young Master said there is, then there must be. After all, who doesn't know that the things coming out of Tianji camp are extremely precious and exquisite objects that ordinary people can't touch. It's just that... Master will use this deep well If you use your drilling skills without any concealment, are you not afraid that we will steal from you?"
This rough guy makes everything he says annoying! But they all got to the point.
Qin Feng put his hands behind his back and said angrily: "I'm afraid you won't be able to learn!"
As soon as these words came out, all the people looked at each other in disbelief.
Craftsmen all hide their skills. How can Qin Feng be so afraid that others won't be able to learn it?
