The reborn peasant girl has space for farming

Chapter 899 Developing Xiaojing Lake
After everyone in the Wang family was dealt with, everything was back on track. Cheng Haiyi was specially granted a one-year sentence reduction because of his major meritorious service.

This news made both Cheng Haiyi and Bai Meixi very happy. Counting the time Cheng Haiyi has already served, there are only more than six years left before he regains freedom.

Cheng Haiyi was recognized by everyone here, and it would be natural for him to have his sentence commuted again. He might only need to serve five years in prison before he can be released.

"Cheng Haiyi, you did a good job. It's not easy to get a reduced sentence just after you come in. There will definitely be opportunities in the future."

Director Xu patted Cheng Haiyi on the shoulder and was very satisfied with the result. After those disobedient fugitives were sent away, the management of Gobi Prison became much easier than before.

Several guards in the prison also received a one-level salary increase because they were not afraid of power and had the courage to expose the truth. In addition, when the prison wall collapsed, they dealt with the relevant issues in a timely manner without causing a major incident.

Officer Xu was also promoted and became the leader of the prison. Now he has much greater say than before.

The first thing he did after taking office was to propose building a new dormitory near Xiaojing Lake as a place for family members to live and rest when visiting prisoners, and also as a rest stop for staff to collect water.

This proposal was quickly approved. It is not difficult to build a dry house in the desert, not to mention that after the heavy rain a few days ago, the water level of Xiaojing Lake has increased a lot, and the silt and soil are readily available. of.

Director Xu asked Cheng Haiyi to take a few honest and reliable people to build a dormitory. At the same time, a large number of Populus euphratica trees were transported to be planted between the Gobi Prison and Xiaojing Lake to form an obvious road for people to come and go in the future. People can ride camels and walk, and even people who are unfamiliar with the desert will not get lost.

What's more, Xiaojing Lake has fertile water and soil, and can grow potatoes and other crops as food for everyone's daily consumption. Maybe in the future, they can expand the scope of this oasis and make it a vegetable supply base for the Gobi Prison.

"Xiao Bai, when this place is built, you and your children won't have to suffer so much in the future. Other family members can also come here, which will be of great benefit to the prisoner's reform!"

Director Xu kept describing his ideas. He likes to be bold and bold in doing things. He was suppressed before and had no room to display his talents. Now he has finally been recognized by his superiors. He must make some achievements to reflect his value as a leader. .

"Yes, yes, it would be great if this desert could be planted with Populus euphratica forest in the future. We can walk along the Populus euphratica forest wherever we want, and we won't feel so hot."

Bai Meixi had been struggling for a few days, and her body was a little weak. She was not prone to heatstroke only when she stayed by the water. But she still felt indescribably happy when she saw that what she wanted to do finally came to an end.

Moreover, her husband was working beside her. This feeling was like going back to when they built a house for their family. Bai Meixi even had the illusion that Cheng Haiyi had gained freedom.

Director Xu asked everyone to build bungalows. In just five days, five main houses were built by the lake, and there was also a bathroom. The water flowing out of it could irrigate the surrounding Populus euphratica forest, killing two birds with one stone.

Cheng Haiyi also planned a place to grow potatoes and raise livestock. In the future, they can build Xiaojing Lake into a long-term office.

In the future, family members who come here to visit the prison, officers who come to work, and even residents passing by will be able to have a good living environment, and maybe they can also help people who are lost in the desert.

"Brother Haiyi, you are working hard to hurry up for the sake of your sister-in-law and your children. In fact, you should build slower and stay with your sister-in-law for a few more days." The inmates in the prison kept teasing. After several fugitives were severely sentenced, everyone gave up the idea of ​​​​escape, for fear of losing their lives, not to mention that the prison treatment here is getting better and better, and maybe their family members can come next year.

"It's too hot here, it's better for the two of them to move in as soon as possible."

Cheng Haiyi felt very distressed when he saw Bai Meixi sleeping on the ground with her children every day. He knew that the thin tent could not block much wind.

He used mud to make a bed and table in the room, and used some plastic sheets to make windows, which greatly improved the overall quality of the room.

Moreover, this method of using local materials also saves money and effort, and can be applied to a large area.

Officer Xu reported the progress here to his superiors. After learning that they had acted so quickly, the superiors were very happy. They decided to set the approach of Gobi Prison as a model and strive to make all prisons self-sufficient, which can save the country a lot of money. Few resources.

The expedition team that Ali participated in also received good news. After their project was restarted, his mentor discovered an underground water source nearby. The location of this water source is closer to the Gobi Prison than Xiaojing Lake. It can be reached in half a day.

Director Xu visited this water source. The sand layer here is not thick. The location of the entrance seems to be related to the tomb. After walking down for more than ten meters, you can see an underground river.

Although the river is very thin, it is enough to supply the entire Gobi Prison.

It is naturally a good thing to find another water source, but Director Xu's face is a bit gloomy. He has spent so much effort to build a house around Xiaojing Lake. If it cannot be used as a fixed water source, then his previous plan is Empty talk that wastes people and money.

"Director Xu, the location of the new water source forms a triangle with Xiaojing Lake and the Gobi Prison. We can plant Achnatherum splendens in this area and green the entire desert. If we can complete this idea, we will be able to A guiding light has been established in the desert for all.”

Cheng Haiyi helped Director Xu come up with a way to get the best of both worlds. The cost of splendens splendens is not high, and greening planting in the desert is a project strongly supported by the state. Now that they have control of two water sources, they can definitely green this area successfully.

According to the area here, once the matter is completed, Director Xu's position will definitely be upgraded to another level, or even directly transferred back to another urban work permit.

Maybe this large area of ​​greening can also change the climate here and benefit more residents.

"Cheng Haiyi, your proposal is very good. These two water sources are very rare and deserve to be developed."

Director Xu recognized Cheng Haiyi's idea very much and planned to apply to his superiors next year to station a staff member permanently in Xiaojing Lake to continuously develop the value of the place.
