It is impossible for a well to be unable to produce water. In ancient times, there were not so many high-tech products to assist in the detection of some data.

But everything has its advantages and disadvantages. Without high-tech products, it was the most inconvenient in ancient times. Similarly, the ancient human environment has not been damaged by large-scale pollution.

The well water here has a hint of sweet taste, so there is no need to worry about whether the well water will be contaminated or not.

For example, the wells here are mostly about three meters deep, that is, one meter deep. Even deep wells can be dug to a depth of two meter deep. Unless such wells encounter severe droughts and even the earth is baked and cracked, it is unlikely that they will dry up in such deep wells.

However, in later generations, more than three meters of foundation was dug for building a high-rise house. It took more than ten meters of wells in rural families to dig casually. Those who can dig out water for more than ten meters will definitely burn high fragrance, and groundwater may not be safe.

For example, the haze in later generations. Hum, when it comes to haze, Qin Chao couldn't help but miss the haze in later generations...

Let’s talk about wells. In fact, it was really difficult to dig a waste well in ancient times, at least in Qin Chao’s opinion, that’s true.

As long as you choose the right position, dig six meters if you don’t get out of water for three meters, and dig ten meters if you don’t get out of water for six meters. Sometimes, it doesn’t mean that this is a waste well, but the depth of digging is not enough.

However, in ancient times when the cost of digging wells was huge, it was not easy to dig a deep well. Even the landlords and powerful people were reluctant to dig a deep well.

However, using the impact drilling method can solve this problem well. Anyway, there is no need for people to dig, just need to be driven down and hit.

It takes ten days of effort to mine it, and it takes less than a day to use this method, and it is just a waste of one day to fight as deep as you want.

Qin Chao's fiefdom was dug in a total of five wells. Two guys Cheng Chumo and Niu Jianhu, as well as some of the more flexible men in the village, all received Qin Chao's true teachings.

Using these five wells, Qin Chao explained to them one by one how to see the color of the mud to determine whether water is about to come out, how to choose the location of the wellbore, how to get the depth, you have to give up, etc.

Qin Chao gave Cheng Chumo the well-driving task to Cheng Chumo.

Anyway, this guy is curious and has a lot of curiosity. Since he learned how to dig wells, he has been digging wells every day. He wished he could just dig a well in Qin Chao's yard to test whether his skills were real.

Now that the tools are ready, Cheng Chumo decided to dig a hundred wells in Chengjiazhuang in one breath. This guy decided to turn all the fields in his family into irrigation fields.

Qin Chao agreed with Cheng Chumo's two-handed behavior.

The Cheng family village is not just a farm. After all, Cheng Yaojin's identity is there. If the Cheng family village only spent 400 guan to turn dryland into irrigation, how big is the positive effect of this news? This is immeasurable. The more people you see, the more impulsive the landlords and wealthy people will be. At that time, every family wants to turn the fields into irrigation. Wouldn't Qin Chao make a profit?

"Continue to fight, water will definitely come out within half an hour." Cheng Chumo squatted beside the mud that had just been lifted for a while, and then carefully compared the mud before. He finally showed an excited expression on his face and shouted at the men of the well-driving team in Xiba Village.

Hearing Cheng Chumo's roar, the men worked harder.

The shorter the time to dig a well, the more they earn. Qin Chao paid a wage very attractive. Although they needed to leave their hometown and leave the work in the fields for the women, the money they earned was enough to buy all the food.

The wages Qin Chao gave them were not given by day, but by a well, and they dug them into a well. They had a commission of 400 yuan, which was equally divided by all the people responsible for building this well.

However, the pipe connection and the water pressure device require separate people to install it, so in fact, after digging a well, their commission is 350 yuan. That is to say, after digging a well, as long as the water is released, the rest of the work can be handed over to others, and they can share it with 370 yuan.

There are seven people in one group, six of whom are responsible for pulling ropes, and one is responsible for pouring water and pumping slurry.

On average, each person can get fifty cents per well. What does fifty cents mean? These days, when you work for people, you only have three cents a day for better days. Some people don’t even pay, just pay for food.

The remaining fifty coins, twenty-five coins, are for those who install pipe equipment, and twenty-five coins are for those who are responsible for transporting water.

Although they don’t have much money, they can draw fifteen groups at the same time. If they count, if they can dig fifteen wells a day, they will earn no less money than those of the well drilled groups.

"Master, it's out of the water..." Xu Zhong hurriedly ran to the field, found Cheng Yaojin lying there basking in the sun, and said in a panic.

"What? Is the water coming out?" Cheng Yaojin was shocked and said, "How is this possible? How can it be out of water in less than a day?"

"It's really out of the water. The young master is so excited that he looks like a madman." Xu Zhong continued.

Cheng Yaojin stood up in a hurry and saw Cheng Chumo who was crazy from afar. With deep suspicion in his heart, he walked over quickly.

When Cheng Yaojin walked to the so-called wellhead of the well, his whole face suddenly turned black, although it was not very white at all.

"Sir, don't be anxious first. At most half an hour, you can see the well water being pumped up." Cheng Chumo had seen Cheng Yaojin a long time ago. Seeing that Cheng Yaojin wanted to get angry, he hurriedly spoke first.

Immediately, regardless of Cheng Yaojin's reaction, he hurriedly called the pipe workers to measure, then made the pipes and lowered the pipes.

The depth of each well is different, and it is impossible to make bamboo poles in advance, but some preparations that should be made must be made in advance.

For example, make bamboo poles into three to five meters each, and carve the upper and lower mounts in advance, and wait for as much as you need, just connect as directly.

Soon, a piece of rope was put down along the wellhead, and long thin bamboo poles were tied to the rope. In a short while, the depth of the well was measured.

The pipe worker quickly connected two five-meter-long pipes together, then sealed the tung oil, and then sealed the melted candles at the connection. Finally, it was used to put the external protective shells in advance at the connection and tightly fixed them together.

After ensuring that the fixing was correct, several pipe workers used the support of the previous drill bit to put the pipe into the well bit by bit until about half a meter left on the upper part. A pipe worker picked up the bayonet bracket prepared in advance and buckled it tightly from both sides, just connected with the grooves carved on the pipe before to prevent the pipe from sinking.

After that, he used a cup of tea to install the water pressing device. After doing everything, Cheng Chumo couldn't wait to lift the bucket and pour some water in it. He only pressed it for five or six times, and a large amount of dirty well water mixed with soil poured out of the pipe.
