The Boss of the Yan Family in Siheyuan

Chapter 141 Difficult Itinerary

It snowed for three days in a row.

On the fourth morning, Yan Jiecheng woke up and saw that the snow had stopped.

The sun came out in the morning, and the sun shone on the snow, making people's eyes hurt.

Fortunately, in the small courtyard of the headquarters, Commander Shen Youliang led all the staff to sweep the snow in the morning.

Yan Jiecheng and the others also participated. After all, it often snows in the capital in winter, and the staff in the unit yard cleaned the snow by themselves.

Nowadays, the top leaders of general units like to end in person at this time.

One is to lead by example, the other is to have fun with the people, and the third is to be like this.

Unlike later, they were all posing for a show.

When all the snow is gathered together, everyone takes the shovels and throws the snow blocks into the water cellar, and then the work is over.

Yan Jiecheng was also curious as to why they threw the snow into the water cellar.

Someone told him that this is collecting snow water, which can be drunk after melting.

They are also very curious about Yan Jiecheng, the water cellar here in the Western Regions.

The three of them studied around the water cellar for half an hour.

Lao Xie looked at the opening of the water cellar and said, "This is a buried underground water storage project. Usually it should be a collection and utilization project for collecting rainwater or snowwater."

After watching it, Chen Bo said, "It's like a huge vase buried underneath.

It consists of a water inlet, a grit chamber, a cellar tube, a cellar platform and a cellar body. "

Yan Jiecheng shook his head and said, "None of you have noticed the core problem. Although the construction of this water cellar is easy, two people can dig one in a few days.

But you must know that this is water storage, so seepage prevention is the key.

I don't know how to deal with this? "

Both of them were engineers, and after hearing Yan Jiecheng's words, they couldn't help but think about the solution.

After a while, Chen Bo said: "It may be that heavy silty clay and composite soil were used to tamp the cellar wall and the kiln bottom with the mud-beating method."

Lao Xie also followed up and said: "The walls of the cellar are smeared with 3 to 4 layers of yellow mud, each layer is 1 cm.

Then stagger the mud stubble, compact it with a hammer to make the mud wall smooth, seal it after completion, and spray clean water several times in the cellar, so that there should be no water seepage. "

Yan Jiecheng nodded and said, "It should be like this. After the mud is hit, a dense layer will be formed on the surface, which has the effect of preventing water. Repeating it several times should prevent leakage."

Shen Youliang at the side heard what the three said with a smile: "The three are indeed experts in the ministry, and you can tell the principle of this thing just by looking at it."

Several people were talking, when a staff member came over and said to Shen Youliang, "Commander Shen, the horses are here."

After hearing this, Shen Youliang smiled and said to Yan Xie, "Director Yan, the two experts are coming to see the horses."

While walking, Shen Youliang explained with a smile to Yan Xiecheng and the others: "Director Yan, the roads are blocked by heavy snow in the windy area, and the car will definitely not be able to drive.

If you want to go, you can only ride a horse, so I let someone lead a few horses, and you can learn and practice in the yard. "

When the few people heard that they wanted to learn how to ride a horse, they naturally became emotional. After all, they were all men, and who hadn't thought about riding a horse.

It was only then that Yan Jiecheng saw that there were three horses in the yard, and the black ones couldn't tell what kind they were, and they probably couldn't be bloody horses.

But it doesn't matter, it doesn't matter whether he is a sweaty BMW or a rouge horse or a Yangzhou skinny horse, as long as he can ride it.

The comrade who taught Yan Jiecheng how to ride a horse was called Song Jianzhong. He was only 21 years old, but he was an experienced rider.

A few people walked towards the horse. In addition to the riding equipment, there was a large saddle on the horse's back.

Song Jianzhong said that it can hold things, such as pens and notebooks, or small items such as food.

The three of them practiced horseback riding for two days. Except for Yan Jiecheng who was more proficient in riding, Lao Xie and Chen Bo could barely do it.

The few people didn't want to stay in the headquarters to do nothing, so they decided to set off for the wind area.

It takes more than 200 kilometers from here to the windy area, and it is estimated that it will take a week to ride a horse.

After all, we don't have a horse that travels thousands of miles a day and eight hundred nights.

Even if there is a red rabbit horse, a few rookies can't ride it fast.

Yan Jiecheng decided on the departure date, and the headquarters was making preparations for the trip.

Well prepared, food, water, quilts, fodder, etc. are available.

This time the team was quite large, in addition to Yan Jiecheng, Shen Youliang, Shi Dunzi and other technicians, as well as security, logistics, etc., there were more than 30 people in total.

At nine o'clock in the morning, as soon as it dawned, everyone had breakfast and set off on the road.

After Yan Jiecheng and the three experienced the novelty at the beginning, they began to suffer both physically and mentally.

The team walked for three hours, and when it was almost twelve o'clock, Yan Jiecheng only felt a burning pain in the inner thigh.

The wind blowing on the face was like a knife, and it hurt people's faces.

After one o'clock, everyone found a leeward place to stop and rest.

Everyone took out the dry food they prepared, which were some naan and beef jerky.

The water in the kettle had long been frozen into icicles, so he quickly lit a fire and set up a large pot.

I found some clean snow from the ground and threw it in the pot, and after a while, there was a pot of hot water.

Everyone fetched water, and then began to eat naan and beef jerky.

Seeing that Yan Xiecheng and the others were walking strangely with their legs crossed, Shen Youliang said with a smile, "Director Yan, are you all right? This is the first time riding a horse like this, and it will gradually get better later on."

After resting for a while, everyone went on the road again.

After a journey of thirty to forty kilometers, the sky began to darken, and a row of bungalows made of soil blocks appeared in front of Yan Xiecheng and the others.

Reining in the horse and stopping, Yan Jiecheng followed Shen Youliang and they opened the door, only then did they realize that it was a hotel.

Yan Jiecheng took a look around, and he really had a panoramic view of this hotel.

Apart from rows of Datong shops, the only equipment is an oil lamp.

There wasn't even any bedding on Datong's bunk, and Yan Xiecheng knew the reason why they brought bedding when they set off.

There is a row of Chase bunks where several guests from afar have lived.

In this desolate country, none of the three of Yan Jiecheng would be picky about the accommodation conditions.

They are all holding their thighs and waiting to sleep and rest.

Someone from the headquarters showed the letter of introduction to the hotel staff.

The letter is uniformly issued by the unit, and the letter states the identity of the business traveler, the reason for the business trip, and the destination of the business trip.

Without this letter of introduction, such a Datong shop would not be possible.

After the hotel staff checked the letters of introduction one by one, everyone hurriedly put their carry-on luggage on the Datong bunk, each taking a place.

Shen Youliang arranged his night duty again, and then rested.

After all, with so many supplies and horses, a sentry must be arranged.

at night.

The whole room is full of snoring, sleep talking, farting, teeth grinding... mixed with the sour smell of sweat and excreted carbon dioxide, hydrogen and methane, it permeates the room together.
