We had large plate chicken for dinner. Large plate chicken is a very famous delicacy here. The skill of Master Wu is unparalleled and the taste is very good.
Lin Yi had just arrived at the plateau post, and he was still a little uncomfortable. When working, he couldn't exert his full strength, and he was prone to sweating, and asthma was common.
But just like that, I made two big bowls of rice, especially when the soup was poured on the rice, it was so fragrant that Lin Yi could swallow his tongue.
After eating and drinking, and another cup of tea, squad leader 8 looked at the time and shouted: "In half an hour, we will gather in the conference room for the class meeting."
The purpose of class meetings is to study the advanced content of newspapers and summarize some outpost issues. In fact, it is a cliché, but it is not enough if it is not held. First, it is boring. It is really boring. If you don't hold class meetings, you will have no way to pass the time.
The second is to write meeting minutes. Meeting minutes can be very repetitive, but you must not fail to write them. Failure to write them is a violation, and it just doesn’t work.
It is estimated that the 8th squad leader wanted to increase Lin Yi's popularity, so today he specifically talked about Lin Yi's reinforcement of the cave leading to the dry toilet, and expressed Lin Yi's idea.
When everyone heard this, they applauded one after another. After saying so many big words every day, it is better to do something practical. What is practical is something that can make the soldiers feel the changes.
Normally when I go to the toilet, it’s fine when the wind doesn’t blow. But when it does blow, it’s bitingly cold and not safe. The snow hills are said to be very solid, but if they’re not kept straight, you’ll miss the mark. So every time I look through the snow hills,
, everyone climbed over using their hands and feet.
It's really quite inconvenient.
If Lin Yi really built a passage directly leading to the toilet, not only would he be able to avoid cleaning the snow behind him throughout the winter, but it would also be safer for everyone to go to the toilet.
This is really a good thing.
Lin Yi waved his hand, "This is not a big deal. Now the outpost is our home. We can also make various suggestions. As long as it can facilitate everyone's life, then we can try it."
"Don't be afraid that the suggestions you put forward are unreliable. After the suggestions were put forward and everyone discussed them, they all said that the three stooges were even more powerful than Zhuge Liang. As long as we pool our wisdom, we can always solve many problems in life."
As soon as Lin Yi finished speaking, Master Wu raised his hand and said, "I'm thinking about a question, can we build a water storage tank so that we don't have to melt the snow every time in winter."
After hearing this, Squad Leader 8 knocked on the table and said, "Old Wu, what Platoon Leader Lin means is to make a slightly more reliable suggestion."
"It's obviously impossible to build a water storage tank. It won't work in the winter. It's minus 30 degrees outside. How can we store water? It won't work in the summer. Our wells can be used in the six months from April to October.
If you pump out the water, you can't use it however you want."
Master Wu was not surprised, "Anyway, it is difficult to use water in winter. This is a fact. I feel that there is not enough water every day. When I wash the dishes, I wipe them with snow first and then wash them with water, which is not good."
Deputy squad leader Qiao smoothed things over, "Just get over it if you don't feel good. There's so much snow outside that you can't use it up. Just scoop up a basin of snow and wipe it away. It's no big deal. Old Wu, don't let Platoon Leader Lin see the joke."
ah."
Lin Yi waved his hands repeatedly, "I didn't see the joke, this is a very practical issue. When I was using water this afternoon, Master Wu looked at how much water I was using, as if he was guarding me."
"I know this is because there is not enough water in winter. If water can be pumped out in summer, Master Wu will definitely not be searching like this. Since the demand for water has caused inconvenience to life, let's think of a way to see if we can
If it can’t be solved, what method should we look for to solve it?”
At first glance, Lin Yi's words made sense, but after living in the outpost for a long time, I realized that Lin Yi was really suspected of shouting slogans.
This is not to say that Lin Yi doesn't do things, but there are many things that even if he does them, there will be no results. Anyone who has been at the outpost for a long time does not know that water is difficult to use in winter.
But the conditions of the outpost are like this. You can't add a water storage tank. The boiler room is not that big. As for building a special water room, how much heating will be needed?
And there is no guarantee whether it will be effective.
Taken together, this proposal is in vain.
In fact, the water from the melted snow during the day is enough for washing and cooking. Even if you want to wipe yourself with hot water, it is enough.
However, it is indeed a bit difficult to take a comfortable bath. However, around the Chinese New Year or festivals, you can use a stove to boil snow and melt water to take a bath, which is much faster.
Suddenly Lin realized something. Since we can't increase the size of the water tank in the boiler room, we can increase the speed of snow melting.
"Don't we have heating rods that can heat up quickly? Anyway, the outpost has electricity. Get a few more heating rods, but the speed of melting snow won't be very fast. Use as much water as you want, just go outside and get as much snow as you want, and then come back
Just heat it up and it's done."
As soon as these words came out, the conference room suddenly became silent.
Everyone looked at Lin Yi in surprise. The serious problem of water shortage in winter was actually solved by Lin Yi so lightly and with such a simple method.
Squad Leader 8's face turned red. He didn't expect that the water reservoir plan that he had rejected so many times could be solved with a few heating rods. Why had he never thought about these problems in all his years at the outpost?
Is it because Master Wu has never expressed lack of water, which has led to his failure to take this matter seriously?
Or do you think that if you are used to eating snow outside while on patrol, you will have to live such a hard life after arriving at the outpost?
This kind of lazy thinking is really going to kill you.
Lin Jing noticed that everyone was silent and didn't know if he had made a mistake, so he asked carefully: "Our outpost should be able to carry a boiling water stick. When I was in school, I often used a boiling water stick secretly.
To boil water, the one with low power is about the same power as the kettle in our restaurant."
Master Wu suddenly burst into tears, "If you can bring it up, you can definitely bring it up. Now it's better. The problem of water shortage in winter will finally be solved."
Squad Leader 8 also said, "Platoon Leader Lin, I'm sorry for my work over the years. I was derelict in my duty."
Lin noticed that the 8th squad leader lowered his head and said quickly: "You have failed in your duty. I haven't solved any big problems. The problem of water shortage in winter still exists. As long as we keep going outside to shovel the snow and come back to turn it into water for drinking,
That problem has always existed."
"The weather is usually fine, but once a blizzard blows, it will be difficult to dig out the snow. This is at most a small problem solved. We still need to make more efforts."
