When it first started to rain, no one actually cared. At most, they just complained.
It's raining so heavily that it's impossible to go out today. Not only can't I go out today, I'm afraid it will be difficult to walk outside for the next few days.
After all, there are yellow mud roads everywhere in Donggang. When it rains, there will be yellow mud soup everywhere, making it really inconvenient to go out.
Otherwise, there would be no words like "When you come to Donggang Township, your crotch will be wet with yellow mud."
But when the heavy rain continued into the evening, many people realized that something seemed wrong.
Those who lived along the Huangni River and were persuaded by the brigade to evacuate originally complained that the brigade was just looking for trouble and was just messing around.
At this moment, I didn’t say anything. I crowded in the houses of relatives and friends, looked at the rain outside, and began to secretly rejoice.
Thanks to the early move, the river water may have risen so high now that their house is flooded.
Donggang Commune organized militiamen and young laborers to patrol along the river with flashlights.
Everyone's hearts were beating loudly as they watched the river, which was like a yellow mud soup mixed with dead trees and branches, roaring past like thousands of horses galloping.
This scene is really a bit scary.
Just as I was thinking about it, I heard a click in front of me, as if there was something breaking.
Everyone hurriedly looked ahead with flashlights, and found that a wooden bridge in front was broken.
It may be that the wooden piles rotted over the years and were broken by floods. Then the entire bridge broke off and the bridge boards rushed down along the water.
"Hey, thank you for evacuating all the people on the other side of the river. Otherwise, the bridge would be broken and the water would be so strong that we wouldn't be able to get over."
The patrolling militiamen saw this and sighed happily.
"Yes, thanks to our brigade's quick response and timely evacuation, otherwise it would have been really dangerous.
I don’t know what’s going on on the other side of the Xiaohei River?” These patrollers were all members of the second brigade, and they were talking as they walked forward.
"It should be fine. The Xiaohei Heigeng field is quite high, and it's quite far away from the river.
I am just afraid that there will be heavy rain on the mountain and the water on the horse trail will be too deep.
Didn't our secretary take people to the mountain? They must have dug ditches. As long as the water can be drained out, it will be fine without flooding the sticks."
Everyone was thinking about the topography of the Xiaoheihe Ginseng Field and felt that it should be no big deal.
On Xiaoheihe Mountain, Yu Shouguang led people to dig ditches in the rain for a whole day.
By evening, all the horse paths had been cleared, and deep drainage ditches had been dug around the ginseng field.
The ginseng land is not flat, but is all hilly. As long as the drainage ditches are dug well and the rainwater flows out along the horse paths and drainage ditches and does not accumulate in the horse paths, then it will be fine.
"Don't sleep tonight, patrol around with your flashlight, and if you find a ditch somewhere that's not working properly, call someone to clean it up immediately.
Grit your teeth and hold on, and you will be sure to keep our club."
It was dark, and Yu Shouguang did not dare to go down the mountain. He led his people to guard the mountain.
The hope of more than 1,700 people from the whole team is to participate in this field. If it is flooded, how will the next three years go?
"I don't know, how is the breeding farm of our third child doing?
There is a big pool at his end. If the water comes up, all the animals there except otters will drown."
Xu Chenghou looked at the heavy rain outside and was worried. If this continued, he was afraid that the breeding farm would be destroyed.
"Oh, God, you are so imperfect, why don't you let people live?"
"Brother Xu, don't worry, your family's Shiyan is a man of plans, he must know what he's doing.
I didn't let him come up today, he is probably at the breeding farm right now." Seeing Xu Chenghou's worried face, Yu Shouguang could only comfort him.
Yu Shouguang guessed right, Xu Shiyan was really at the breeding farm.
With such a heavy rain, he must go to the breeding farm to sit down.
When choosing the site for the breeding farm, Xu Shiyan had thought about the problem of flooding.
Therefore, the forage planting area was placed on a flat open land, and the animal enclosure was placed on a sunny hillside.
When the fish farm was being built, several drainage ditches were set aside, but they were not in use and were blocked.
At noon, Xu Shiyan and a few blind men dug a drainage ditch. In the afternoon, seeing that things were not going well, they dug another ditch.
At night, Xu Shian saw that it still didn't work, so he discussed with Xu Shiyan to dig out the last one.
"Well, let's dig it up. Don't be afraid that a few fish will escape. If the fish are gone, we can still raise them again. If this farm is flooded, years of hard work will be in vain."
Xu Shiyan looked at the rain still falling outside and nodded. Then the group came to the last drainage outlet, swung the shovel and dug out the drainage outlet.
The last drainage ditch is the lowest and the channel is wide, so when this ditch is dug, the water level in Paozi will no longer rise.
Everyone finally breathed a sigh of relief and stared here for a while. After confirming that there was no danger, they went back to rest.
That night, I don't know how many people stayed awake all night, all staring at the dark night sky outside, praying in their hearts that God would open their eyes and stop it from falling again.
However, the reality disappointed everyone. It was still raining. This rain lasted from the 26th to the 28th.
In this rain, the average rainfall was more than 210 millimeters, and the average rainfall in Manjiang, Donggang, and Quanyang areas was more than 223 millimeters.
The water level of the first Songhua River and Songjiang River surged. During the peak period, the water level rose by more than 30 centimeters per hour, with a peak flow of 4,800 cubic meters per second.
Houses and crops in low-lying areas were all soaked in water, causing heavy losses.
Fortunately, the county took timely measures to organize people to evacuate in advance, and there were no casualties, which is fortunate.
The rain stopped, the water slowly receded, and everything was in a mess.
The commune and the brigade quickly called on everyone to clean up the flooded land and help up the crops that had been washed down by the water.
Bridges and roads need to be rebuilt, and houses that cross the water need to be renovated.
Ten days and a half months of this busy work passed by in the blink of an eye. When all this work is over, it will be time for the autumn harvest.
Crops are divided into plots. Those that have been exposed to water will not be harvested temporarily, while those that have not been exposed to water will be harvested in batches according to their maturity.
On September 16th, Xiaoheihe Ginseng Field started to produce ginseng.
This year there were more than 4,500 feet of sticks, all of which were made with base fertilizer and top-dressing fertilizer last year. When the sticks came out of the ground together, everyone was shocked.
Those who were planted in the ground on the first and second roads, and sticks of three or four ounces were everywhere.
The heaviest tree weighed more than half a kilogram. Yu Shouguang took it away, washed it, soaked it in wine, and sent it to Chen Jianzhang's office.
This is a milestone in the development of the second brigade's participation industry. It must be kept as a specimen, but cannot be sold as goods.
When all the ginseng comes out, the total output can be calculated. After applying fertilizer, the output per foot of ginseng can be increased by more than 50%.
The Second Brigade's 4,500-foot ginseng production can catch up with the previous 7,000-foot production. This is definitely a huge leap forward.
The news was reported to the county, and the county leaders discussed and decided that this year's advanced collectives would be returned to the Second Brigade of Donggang Commune.
Of course, compared to honor, members of the second brigade care more about work points.
The output of sticks is so high this year, every family can earn a lot more money.
It will be updated on time at 7 o'clock tomorrow. Thank you for your support. More genuine good books can be found on the Qidian Chinese website.
