Chapter 581: Digging a Well
Zhou Ziwen readily agreed to the matter of hosting a banquet for others.
Not to mention that Wang Hongbing spoke in person, even an ordinary person would agree.
You are a bastard if you don’t make money, especially those who make money quickly.
Cooking a meal only takes an hour or two to really get busy.
I can earn several yuan for one or two hours, which is higher than the wages of factory workers.
After confirming the time for the banquet, Zhou Ziwen did not stay in the escort team for long, because work was about to end, and he was also planning to go back to get food.
But it was late now. When he got home and had just taken out the steamed buns he had made in the morning and steamed them, the two sisters came back.
"Brother Ziwen, how did you do in the exam? Are you okay?"
As soon as he entered the door, Chen Qiaoyi started shouting.
"No problem, the results will be out tomorrow."
Zhou Ziwen nodded calmly.
“Hehe, that’s great.”
When they heard this, Chen Qiaoyi and Chen Shiying were very happy, and Tang Yaoyao on the side also had a smile on her face.
Zhou Ziwen also knew why they were so happy.
Compared with hygienists, doctors with medical qualification certificates are regular soldiers and are of a higher standard.
With this certificate, you can go to other places or hospitals for interviews in the future.
When Wu Dagang was originally promised to be a health worker, Zhou Ziwen actually had this consideration as well.
As long as you become a hygienist, you can take the exam to become a doctor and become a regular soldier.
Although with his ability, it doesn't matter whether he has a medical qualification certificate or not.
But this certificate is still very useful sometimes and can avoid a lot of trouble.
For example, if you encounter an emergency in the future and have to save someone, this card will be very useful.
While eating, Zhou Ziwen talked about digging a well.
“Can we dig a well in our yard?”
Chen Shiying asked.
"Okay, I've seen it."
Zhou Ziwen answered.
“Great, Brother Ziwen won’t have to go to the village to fetch water from now on.”
Hearing this, Chen Qiaoyi was even happier than Zhou Ziwen.
“Yes!”
Zhou Ziwen was also very happy.
Now this home has been well done by him, all it needs is a well.
"Brother Ziwen, if the well is dug, can I use it in the future?"
Tang Yaoyao asked expectantly.
“Yes, you can use it as you like, you’re welcome.”
Zhou Ziwen nodded readily.
On their side, unlike the Educated Youth Institute, there are only a few in total.
A well is completely sufficient.
“Thank you, Brother Ziwen.”
Tang Yaoyao thanked her sweetly.
"You're welcome."
Zhou Ziwen waved his hand nonchalantly.
After lunch, Zhou Ziwen took a lunch break.
When the work announcement sounded, he also got up from the kang.
But instead of going to work, 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 next to the laundry chute.
He didn’t need to make any preparations, so he just drew a circle with a hoe.
This circle is where the well will be drilled.
Because there are no high-tech products, drilling wells in this era is just hard digging.
For ease of operation, the digging area is a bit large.
For example, the circle painted by Zhou Ziwen is at least three meters in diameter.
As for the depth, Zhou Ziwen estimated that it would be at least twenty meters.
The most important thing about digging a well is to choose the right place. The actual operation is not complicated.
It is said to be digging a well, but it is actually digging a well. Zhou Ziwen is strong and has good stamina, so the job of digging wells is not difficult.
After determining the location, Zhou Ziwen did not delay, picked up the shovel on the spot and started digging.
Zhou Ziwen was fast and dug a big hole in a short time.
But digging a well is different from working in the fields. The deeper you dig, the more difficult it becomes.
Especially when the digging is below one meter and people have to stand in the pit, it is a bit troublesome to operate.
Fortunately, Zhou Ziwen has a full-level Bajiquan base, so even though the operation is a bit awkward, it has little effect.
With his level of boxing, he is very good at exerting force.
Although the activity space is small, it does not affect the speed of well drilling.
But when he dug deeper, it was not so convenient to operate.
Because the excavated soil needs to be packed in baskets and then transported out.
Every time a basket is filled, Zhou Ziwen has to carry it back and forth. If it were anyone else, he might not even be able to straighten his waist.
This is where Zhou Ziwen's physical fitness comes into play.
He is strong and in good health. Even if he works for a day, he will not feel tired. He is worse than an animal.
If it weren't for this physique, he wouldn't be able to deal with Chen Shiying and Chen Qiaoyi.
And I still have the energy to change places in the middle of the night and go to Shen Zhaodi's place to spend half the night.
In the next afternoon, Zhou Ziwen made great achievements. By the time he was about to finish work, he had already dug five or six meters deep.
According to the current progress, the digging will be completed in a few days.
However, the deeper you dig, the harder it is to operate. It is also laborious to get in and out, and it will take more time.
"Wow, Brother Ziwen, have you dug so deep?"
Soon, the two sisters came home from work and immediately saw the potholes in the yard.
"Well, you guys are back so early?"
This afternoon, Zhou Ziwen has been busy digging wells and has forgotten the time.
I saw the two sisters now, and I didn’t react until I heard the radio outside.
"Yes, we have all finished work. Brother Ziwen, you should also take a rest. It has been a tiring day."
Chen Qiaoyi said distressedly.
"Okay, you guys, get out of the way, I'm coming up."
Zhou Ziwen said.
"Yeah."
When they got out of the way, Zhou Ziwen didn't bother to pack his things, so he pulled the hemp rope in front of him and started to climb up.
Zhou Ziwen was very agile and climbed out of the well in just a few clicks.
After climbing up, he pulled the rope and pulled up the basket filled with soil from the well.
"Ziwen, rest first. Look at you, you are covered in mud. Go take a bath first!"
Chen Shiying patted her with a towel like a virtuous daughter-in-law. The dust on his body.
"Well, I'll take a rest first."
After working for a whole afternoon, Zhou Ziwen didn't want to move anymore.
"Brother Ziwen, let's 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 so nice.”
Zhou Ziwen praised with a smile.
“Hehe, of course.”
Chen Qiaoyi raised her neck and could hardly suppress the smile on her lips.
After resting for a while, Zhou Ziwen began to clean up the battlefield.
Today we dug a well and dug out a lot of soil. It will all be piled up in the yard and needs to be cleaned up.
This is simple for Zhou Ziwen.
Two large baskets were packed out one by one and piled behind the house.
When he has free time, he plans to plant something in the back.
When he was almost done cleaning up, the Chen sisters also prepared dinner.
After dinner, Zhou Ziwen had just rested for a while when Zhou Chaoyang came to the door excitedly.
"Brother Zhou, guess what I heard?"
Looking at his excited expression, you can tell that this is a big melon.
