Era: I was a farmer at the foot of Yaoling Mountain

Chapter 24: Water dragon dances, water flows steadily

On the third day after the well-drilling team arrived at the second team, a piece of news caused a sensation in the village.

This time they actually dug a well. When the wet soil layer was broken, clear and sweet groundwater gushed out, like a crystal clear water dragon flying in the air.

"Captain Zheng, we're very lucky this time. With Fang Wei pointing out the location of the water vein, we've finally dug this well.

Furthermore, this is an artesian well. The underground pressure is very high, and water will continuously flow out of the wellhead. You'd better build a reservoir here."

Technician Liao was in high spirits. Being able to produce water was a victory, and his face was beaming.

The previous perfunctory work was forced upon me, and it would be better if I could achieve results.

At the same time, he mentioned Fang Wei, saying that Fang Wei played a key role in this matter.

This surprised Zheng Xianfa and others.

"Thank you for the support from the county and the commune! Thank you, Technician Liao and the two of you!"

Zheng Xianfa insisted on taking Technician Liao and others out for dinner. He prepared homemade sweet potato wine, which was considered to be a big investment.

The second team does not have much farmland, and the water output of this well is particularly large, so using it for irrigation should be able to solve most of the problems.

After sending off the well-drilling team, Zheng Xianfa led the members to dig a short canal, which was connected to the original irrigation canal.

This saves a lot of trouble. The terrain of the well is higher, so everything will go smoothly.

Later, with the support of the brigade, the second team built three large reservoirs.

The reservoir is in the shape of a Chinese character "品". Once the reservoir is put into use, the well water can be utilized to the maximum extent, avoiding waste of water resources.

Members who need water can also fetch water from the reservoir.

This well has greatly alleviated the local drought. Although the autumn harvest will still be reduced, it will be much better than previously expected.

The team was bustling with activity, but Fang Wei didn't want to stand out, so he went into the mountains carrying his gun.

He has been very busy recently, so he hasn't been to the valley for some time.

When I opened the fence, I saw that the sweet potatoes were growing very well and were not harmed by wild animals.

Fang Wei was busy for a while, weeding, watering, and repairing the fence. Now the fence was like a wall of thorns, and even wild boars were reluctant to get into the thorn pile.

After resting for a while, he got up and walked around.

At this time, the various traces in the valley are clearer.

He basically understood the relationship between the system and himself, and certain properties of the designated areas (buildings) were tailor-made for him as the host.

As the level of the designated area (building) increases, the benefits brought by the attribute bonus will become more and more obvious.

For example, upgrading the level of the [Hunting Area] will increase his agility, speed, strength and other attributes, while the [Picking Area] will increase his identification, detection, speed, strength and other attributes.

At first glance, the attributes between the two seem to overlap, as both possess the attributes of speed and strength.

But after Fang Wei's personal experience over this period of time, he found that the two are not the same.

The speed and strength attribute blessing of [Hunting Area] is aimed at the overall speed and strength of Fang Wei's body.

The speed and strength attributes of the [Picking Area] strengthen his hands, making them stronger and more dexterous, greatly increasing his picking speed.

"We finally dug a well, but it looks like we didn't get much!"

Fang Wei took out the bamboo tube and drank a sip of water, then glanced at the message prompt.

[Stable output of water wells, steady flow of water, daily harvest points 20]

[Current settlement until the last day of the next month, points +616 points]

【Total points are 651 points】

He felt that such a good well should give him at least 100 points every day.

It’s a pity that he has no right to bargain with the system and cannot communicate effectively.

Actually, if you think about it carefully, it’s pretty good to gain a fixed number of points every day, which is a steady stream of income!
However, Fang Wei was still a little confused as to why this well could be designated and owned by someone, but this piece of land in the valley could not.

It's really hard to tell the difference. Is there a difference between land above ground and water below ground? I really don't understand!

Fortunately, he is not a fussy person. The answer is not important, but the system's judgment is important.

After working until the afternoon, Fang Wei left the valley and set off on his journey home.

After digging this well, the pressure in his heart was relieved a little. At least he would not have a total harvest in the autumn.

Humming a little tune, Fang Wei walked quickly in the forest.

His physical endurance and reaction speed have made great progress, and the time he spends traveling between the village and the valley has also been reduced.

Before evening, he returned home.

Dinner consisted of stir-fried peppers, loofah soup and some vegetables. Fang Wei ate it with relish and finished two bowls of sweet potato rice in one go.

"Third brother, how's the situation over there?"

After dinner, Fang Ping asked how the sweet potatoes were growing over there in the valley.

What he was most worried about was that someone would find out that he and his younger brother were secretly clearing land and growing sweet potatoes.

"I don't see any signs of anyone being there, and the fence is intact, so there shouldn't be any problems."

Fang Wei was not too worried. That area was at the edge of the primeval forest, where poisonous insects and ferocious beasts often appeared. Few people dared to go there.

He went to the mountains to play with his classmates. Because of a small conflict, he went deep into the forest out of anger. By chance, he discovered this Feng Shui treasure land.

He suffered a lot that time and almost couldn't go back.

So far, Fang Wei has only met Pan Lianhua in the valley.

Fang Ping nodded, feeling relieved. If it hadn't been a bad year, he wouldn't have done this.

Later, Fang Wei returned to his residence.

Before it got dark, he fed the chicks some food and water, then cleaned up the chicken manure in the yard and piled it in the corner.

Things like these should be collected and used for composting.

There is no chemical fertilizer at this time, and farming depends entirely on organic fertilizer. How dare he waste it?
Fang Wei has already adapted to the life of a farmer. There is nothing he can do if he doesn't adapt. He has to survive, right?
He can be sad one day or cheerful the next; his attitude is always very good.

The weather had been scorching recently, and after walking such a long distance up the mountain, he decided to take a cold shower. A bucket of water poured down his head, giving him a shudder. The refreshing feeling was as good as a second of happiness.

After taking a shower, he picked up some tomatoes, eggplants and peppers that he had grown himself and gave them to Wu Maosheng and Uncle Guan.

Wu Maosheng has no private plot of land. Uncle Guan is a five-guarantee household, and the village will be responsible for his food rations and vegetables, but the variety and quantity are relatively limited.

Wu Maosheng and Uncle Guan were very grateful for Fang Wei's behavior.

Both of them were marginalized people in the village and rarely had anyone to care about them, so the two old comrades had beaming smiles on their faces.

After coming back, Fang Wei closed the door and lay down on the bed.

He now does not have enough points to upgrade the [Planting Area] again, and he has now changed his mind and plans to upgrade the levels of the [Hunting Area], [Picking Area] and several facilities.

"[Hunting Area] and [Gathering Area] have the greatest effect on my attributes, but the others shouldn't be ignored either."

If Fang Wei intends to pursue a path of balanced development, he cannot ignore his own strength.

The body is the capital of revolution. Only with a good body can you do more things and live a better life.

[Temporary Land] → [Woodland] → [Hunting Area]

【Area: 50 square meters】

[Area Level: (Level 3, 0\100)]

[Regional attributes: Agility, Speed, Strength, Hunting Skills, Success Rate Bonus]

[Hunting in this area increases all attributes by an additional 15%]

[Points: 601 points]
