Chapter 15 Geothermal Wells

In a bungalow of more than ten square meters, there is a stove connected to a kang. On the top of the kang, a few people are sitting, playing poker. At first glance, they are the personnel of the geothermal company. On the edge of the kang, sitting upright, they are from the army Soldiers, and only them, can always maintain an upright sitting posture.The fire in the middle is booming. It is very warm in the hut. There are also many people heating up by the fire. They seem to be from the army. On the desk by the window, there is a stack of blueprints, and there is a computer next to it. Laptop, at this time, Wang Zhen was sitting by the table, discussing blueprints with geothermal experts from time to time.

"I didn't expect that your company still has such talents. The drawings basically don't need to be improved. The difference is basically only some specific dimensions. Only the drawings of the geothermal system are not comprehensive enough. This can be formulated by our company's technical staff. At that time, your company will see if there is any room for improvement." Professor Li from the geothermal company said with a smile.

"Hehe, Professor Li, you are too polite, so I won't bother you. If you have any questions, you can call our company at any time. We will discuss the specific areas that need improvement when the real construction is in progress." replied politely.

In the following days, Wang Zhen hardly participated in the company's affairs. He was busy going to the construction site tomorrow. Recently, some manpower has been added to the construction site, and it has been dug to a depth of more than 40 layers. The stone layer has already been seen below. Now The waterproof layer has just been finished, and the upper part is being constructed, and the side culvert is also being excavated. The entire culvert is more than six meters high and ten meters wide. The excavated part has basically been simply constructed. The geothermal well space dug here has been constructed and is being drilled.It seems that everything can be done a few years ago, and the construction can be done directly.

In a flash, the Chinese New Year is coming soon, the company is on holiday, and Chen Dong and the others are going home to celebrate the New Year.Wang Zhen was going to take the little girl to visit her parents. After Chen Yaliang knew about it, she must follow her, saying that she wanted to see Wang Zhen's parents: "You went to your parents for the Chinese New Year, and left me to celebrate the New Year alone? I’m going to join in the fun too, I haven’t celebrated the New Year in Country Z yet!” Wang Zhen looked at her helplessly and said, “Don’t you know what it means for a girl to go home with her to celebrate the New Year in Country Z? Wouldn't it be nice for you to follow?" "I know, isn't it just the daughter-in-law coming? Then let the two elders come as the second wife, hehe."

Wang Zhen looked at her dumbfounded, no matter how much she tried to persuade Chen Yaliang, she couldn't persuade Chen Yaliang, she just said a few words, she immediately looked at Wang Zhen with her big watery and red eyes, tears were holding up inside, as if they were about to fall , the little girl Yao Jia was also there, there was no other way, Wang Zhen's heart softened, so he had to take her back to his parents' house.For example, for the New Year's Eve, I really can't bear it, and I don't feel at ease leaving her at home. The newly bought house of my parents is quite large, and it should be able to live in it.

As soon as she arrived at her parents' house, Chen Yaliang opened her sweet mouth, saying hello to uncle on the left and hello to aunt on the right, which made Wang Zhen's parents happy. Wang Zhen's mother even secretly took Wang Zhen to the kitchen and asked Wang Zhen Zhen, is she the future daughter-in-law? Wang Zhen couldn’t laugh or cry when she said no, and her mother didn’t believe it, so she scolded Wang Zhen: “You are getting old, it’s time to start a family, don’t always pick Pick and choose, I think they have nice girls, if they don't like you, can they come and celebrate the New Year with you?"

At this time, Chen Yaliang jumped out from nowhere: "He doesn't like me like this. He has high eyesight. Auntie, let me cook for you." Wang Zhen glanced at Wang Zhen, and Wang Zhen glared at her angrily. As a result, in return for his mother's angry eyes and chattering, Wang Zhen fled back to the living room in fright, only to see the little girl playing chess with Wang Zhen's father. , while pursing his lips and snickering, the angry Wang Zhen glared at her angrily, and went to the corner to play on the computer by himself.

Two dead girls, sleeping together these two nights, there must be some kind of conspiracy, there must be some conspiracy, after thinking about it for a long time, I can't figure it out, why did the two girls join forces to run away from their parents to harm themselves, forget it, don't think about it , Let's continue to figure out the design drawings of the underground part of the new company, so as not to delay the construction progress.

"Don't be too busy, eat, old man, stop playing, clear the table and eat." His mother's voice came from the kitchen, and Wang Zhen quickly stored the design files in his hand, and then washed his hands and prepared to clean up. He didn't want to be talked about by his mother for a while, but when Wang Zhen arrived in the dining room, the table had already been cleared up, Chen Yaliang was setting the chopsticks, and the little girl Yao Jia came out of the kitchen with dishes.

"Look at how sensible other girls are, huh? Look at you. You can't even take care of yourself all day long. When the meal is ready, you need someone else to bring it to you. You know that when the ready-made ones are ready, you can't even take care of your little sister." Why don't you let me feel at ease when you're out of town like this? Why don't you hurry up and find a suitable marriage? When will you let me and your dad wait?" While muttering, the mother looked at Chen Yaliang, as if she was the future daughter-in-law Yes, it made Wang Zhen very depressed.

After finally eating, Wang Zhen ran back to the bedroom as if fleeing. Of course, during the meal, my mother would not miss the opportunity to bombard Wang Zhen with words, and the two girls would not miss the opportunity to watch jokes .

The blueprints have been completed, and every day at home, she is bombarded by her mother's language. Chen Yaliang is becoming more and more like a daughter-in-law. She rushes to do all kinds of housework, and rushes to learn what she can't do. Even the little girl Yao Jia can't do it anymore. , It’s just that it’s okay to always make fun of Wang Zhen, and even once, when Wang Zhen’s mother got up, she was sleepy and yawned from Wang Zhen’s room, and when she saw Wang Zhen’s mother get up, she immediately pretended to be blushing She ran back to her room to change clothes, causing Wang Zhen to be scolded by her mother. She blamed Wang Zhen for being like someone else's daughter, but refused to marry her. Explain, Wang Zhen was very depressed.

After finally surviving the new year, on the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, Wang Zhen escaped from his mother’s language bombing area on the grounds that the company was busy. After getting in the car, he angrily questioned Chen Yaliang: “Are you trying to harm me? Why did you run to my room early in the morning? You ran out in front of my mother, did you do it on purpose? Seeing that I was scolded by my mother, you didn't even explain it?"

Chen Yaliang looked at Wang Zhen innocently and said: "People just want to see how you sleep, you are a big man, are you afraid of people watching? Besides, you didn't tell me to explain, why should I explain?" Jia was in the back, already laughing forward and backward, Wang Zhen was so angry that he didn't know what to say, he glared at the little girl, "What are you laughing at? You are alone, what the hell are you doing? Praise her in front of my mother, and say My bad words?" "Where...how can there be? My brother is the best, how can I say bad things about my brother, you must have heard wrong, it must be."

Wang Zhen looked at the two girls angrily, and had no choice but to drive to the company depressed, left the two girls, and went to the construction site by himself.

Although it is only the fifth day of the new year, the construction site has already started normally. It is a bustling scene, and all kinds of construction machinery are constantly busy. They take the winch and go down to the bottom of the pit. I can see that the concrete floor and the walls on all sides have been finished. I was busy building the geothermal well area inside the culvert. Only when I found a technician did I know that the entire ground had been dug down to a depth of nearly 200 meters. The geothermal well had already been drilled below 2000 meters, and stones containing a lot of heat energy were drilled. Preliminary estimates , Now if you drill into the groundwater layer, there may be high-temperature steam between 240 degrees and 280 degrees.

The two of them were talking, when suddenly there was an excited and noisy voice from the walkie-talkie. They could vaguely hear someone shouting that they had already drilled into the water layer. Several high-power fans are discharging the water vapor inside, and it took a long time to see the internal situation clearly.

The geothermal expert saw the two people running over excitedly and said: "Haha, this is the deepest and best hot water well I have drilled. The preliminary test shows that the steam temperature is above 300 degrees. The geothermal equipment can be installed later. , It is estimated that after the drilling of more than a dozen pairs of wells underground, the electricity generated by geothermal energy alone will be able to provide electricity for two cities."

Wang Zhen and the technicians were also very excited, and immediately began to direct the ground personnel to lift down the geothermal energy equipment. They worked on the construction site until midnight, and finally installed all the wellhead equipment. After the drilling equipment was removed, the water quality could finally be tested. If If the water quality is not up to standard, the geothermal system will be in vain. The groundwater contains a lot of acid-base minerals, which will corrode copper, carbon steel and other metals. If the acid-base content is too high, no one can stand it for several months. , and even change equipment several times a month.

The experts of the geothermal company were also excited that they failed to drill a high-temperature geothermal well. They began to take samples for testing overnight. Before dawn, the test and test results came out. At around 400 degrees, the water quality not only meets the current geothermal water standard, but also contains a lot of minerals that are beneficial to the human body. It is quite ideal for drinking mineral water, but the temperature is too high to drink normally.Moreover, when the groundwater layer is detected, there is a high-temperature underground river below, and the water volume is sufficient, and even no recharge is required, and geothermal resources can be continuously used.

Wang Zhen was also very excited when he heard the news. Now, even the drinking water in the new company building is available. Good stuff, can you still think of a way to use it?
