Goldfinger is a bit strange
Chapter 601: Source of Life (1/2)
The rumbling sound of machines began to roar in the camp.
Engineer Wang and others were directing the well drilling rig to drill the first well in the base.
It is the dry season here now. There is no river here at all. There is only a seasonal river when the rainy season comes.
This well has been under construction for a week, and the depth has exceeded 100 meters, but the water layer has not been found yet.
"Engineer Wang, how about changing the place?"
When the workers took turns to rest, the engineering team leader handed Engineer Wang a cigarette. He was not optimistic about this place.
The geological structure here is somewhat different from that in China, and his previous experience is a bit useless, but generally speaking, at this depth, water should have come out long ago.
"To the water layer!"
The excited shouts of the workers suddenly came from the workbench.
Everyone was excited and surrounded.
As long as there is water, this place will be completely alive.
At this moment, Liu Qingshan was not in the station. The medical team he led was in the tribe of Evera in the west, delivering medicine to the countryside.
The four-member band also accompanied them to experience life, which was a rare life experience for them.
Among the goods transported this time, there were many medicines, and there were also two doctors and several nurses, one of whom was a Chinese medicine practitioner.
The tribe that Efuya incorporated was far worse than Chief Adu, and could not even solve the most basic problem of food and clothing.
The skinny little black children could be seen everywhere in the garrison.
The poorer the people, the less able they were to resist diseases. According to Efuya, their tribe had almost lost half of its members in the past few years.
At this moment, on the folding bed in front of Liu Qingshan and the others, there was a little black child lying, so thin that his joints were protruding all over his body, but his belly was round and bulging, like a small pot.
The doctor who was examining him gently tapped the baby's belly, making a bang bang sound, just like beating a drum.
"There must be parasites in the stomach, but I don't know what kind of worms there are, so it's not easy to prescribe the right medicine."
Dr. Hu, who treated the little kid, was also a little embarrassed.
He is a Chinese medicine practitioner in his forties. He worked as a barefoot doctor in the countryside and was invited here by chance.
Liu Qingshan thought about it and asked the nurse to bring a package of medicine powder. This was an anti-worm medicine produced by Jiapigou Pharmaceutical Factory. It seemed to be prepared by the dumb grandfather. It was very effective against many parasites.
At that time, because the sanitary and medical conditions in China were relatively poor, there were many people with worms in their stomachs, especially children.
The more popular anti-worm medicine is tower sugar, which many children eat as a snack. In fact, it is specially used to treat roundworms.
But tower sugar is only effective against roundworms, while what Liu Qingshan brought is equivalent to a broad-spectrum insecticide.
"Oh, it's produced by Jiapigou Pharmaceutical, so the effect should be good."
When the doctor saw the manufacturer, he immediately gained confidence. He tore open a package directly. There was reddish-brown medicine inside. He mixed it with a bowl and asked the little black boy to drink it.
When this medicine was made, a lot of sucrose was added to suppress the bitterness, so it tasted a little sweet. The little guy drank it with great enthusiasm.
After licking the bottom of the bowl clean, the little guy ran away barefoot, chasing those little friends, and talking about something in his mouth, probably showing off the delicious food he had just eaten.
Everyone looked at each other and felt a little sad for no reason.
After a while, a few more kids ran over, patted their bellies and said that there were worms inside.
There were no advanced instruments here, so the doctor could only ask questions while checking, such as whether they had excreted worm eggs during defecation, and the children couldn't explain it clearly.
While he was hesitating, a black man came running over in a panic. He was Daru, the second-in-command of the tribe.
This guy gestured and said that his wife was going to give birth, but after several hours, she couldn't give birth.
There is no hospital here, let alone a maternal and child health care center, so giving birth to a child is basically like walking through the gates of hell.
Even if a child is born, the mortality rate is very high due to limited conditions.
When everyone heard this, they did not dare to neglect it and hurriedly followed Daru.
When they arrived in front of the small hut where he lived, there were bursts of wailing from inside. Doctor Hu was about to step in, but was pulled back by Daru's big hand:
You are a man, what do you want to do in there?
There was no choice but to ask a nearly 30-year-old female nurse Xiao Wang to go in. This nurse used to work in the township health center and delivered many babies.
After the female nurse Wang Chunying went in, she ran out in less than a minute, her face was sallow and terrified.
"How is it?" Doctor Hu asked hurriedly.
He knew that Nurse Wang had seen some scenes before, and now she was so scared, it was probably not a good situation.
"I haven't seen it clearly yet."
Wang Chunying covered her chest and gasped.
Doctor Hu couldn't help but glared at her: "Then what are you doing in there!"
Wang Chunying stammered: "That parturient, that place, seems to have been cut, so scary!"
What exactly do you mean? This made Doctor Hu a little confused.
Liu Qingshan understood, he knew that here, both men and women had to be circumcised.
It was better for men, but it was very cruel for women.
So Liu Qingshan explained to the female nurse and helped her to prepare herself psychologically, and Wang Chunying gritted her teeth and went into the straw shed again.
Inside the straw hut, there were also women wearing headscarves coming in and out, all with worried looks on their faces, and it was obvious that the situation inside was not optimistic.
"The wizard is here!"
Suddenly, a child shouted.
Liu Qingshan couldn't help but blink his eyes: this was the first time he saw a wizard here.
Accompanied by the sound of clattering, a middle-aged man came in the crowd, with dishevelled hair and colorfully painted on his face and body. He wore several strings of bones and shells around his neck. He held a bone stick of an unknown animal in one hand and a leather drum in the other hand, banging it.
While beating, the wizard circled around the straw hut, his long hair swung back and forth, and he made strange noises. It was probably performing a ritual, praying for the safety of the mother and child inside.
"This place is really too backward."
Looking at this scene, Ka Kui couldn't help but feel a lot of emotion.
Liu Qingshan looked at him quietly: "Perhaps our arrival can bring some changes."
For a moment, everyone fell silent again.
After a while, an old woman with a headscarf came out and muttered something to the wizard. The wizard stopped dancing and sat down on the ground, sweating profusely, completely helpless.
Daru also completely lost hope. He squatted on the ground, holding his head with both hands, crying silently.
Even the children who were playing seemed to have a premonition of something. They all stopped and stood blankly behind the adults.
Liu Qingshan saw that Nurse Wang had not come out, so he came to Daru, leaned over and patted his shoulder gently: "Maybe there is still hope."
"Wow!"
A hoarse baby cry came from the straw shed.
The women outside trembled and hurried into the straw shed.
Daru also stood up suddenly from the ground, clenched his fists excitedly, and his eyes were bigger than a camel's eyes.
"It's born, it's born!" A surprised cry came from the house.
Daru cried with joy and was about to rush into the straw shed, and then he heard another cry from inside: "No, the mother can't stop the bleeding!"
Daru felt his legs soften instantly and fell to the sand again.
He welcomed a newborn child, but he was about to lose his wife. Between life and death, joy and grief were intertwined, and he couldn't bear this kind of blow.
A tribe member came to comfort him: "At least one was saved."
Daru could only cry silently.
"The bleeding has stopped!" There was another shout from inside the house.
The people outside the house breathed a sigh of relief, and Daru rushed into the straw shed regardless.
After a while, the people inside came out. People gathered Wang Chunying in the middle, with very pious respect on their faces.
As the women talked about it, everyone understood what happened: it was this nurse Wang who successfully delivered the difficult-to-deliver baby first.
Then when the parturient was bleeding heavily, she gave her two packets of medicine, which miraculously stopped the bleeding.
First she saved the baby, then the adults.
Everyone in the tribe looked at Nurse Wang quietly. Her forehead was covered with sweat, her face was still a little pale, and the blood on her hands had not been washed yet.
But in the eyes of these natives, Nurse Wang was the most beautiful and lovely person.
Amid cheers, people surrounded Nurse Wang and danced.
At this moment, she was not Nurse Wang, but the Nurse King.
Even the wizard came up, took off a necklace from his neck, and solemnly hung it on the neck of the Nurse King.
Nurse Wang had not yet completely recovered from the shock, and she could not understand what the natives around her were saying.
But she could feel the respect and love from the bottom of her heart.
Involuntarily, a smile appeared at the corner of her mouth, a proud smile.
"Great!" Ka Kui clapped his hands vigorously, and a creative impulse surged in his body: he wanted to write a song, a hymn about rebirth and life.
"You are great!" Liu Qingshan also clapped his hands and looked at Wang Chunying with a smile.
Wang Chunying was a little shy, because the hemostatic medicine she gave to the parturient was stuffed into her by Liu Qingshan.
She didn't know that it was from this moment that she, who was originally an ordinary nurse, officially started the legendary life of the nurse king.
I don't know how many babies were born into this world from her hands. Her hands were affectionately called "the source of life" by the local indigenous people.
After obtaining permission from Chief Efuya, Daru specially slaughtered two sheep.
But before everyone had a meal, they saw two jeeps speeding over with dust in the air. Xiao Wu jumped off the jeep and ran over, shouting:
"It's out, it's out!"
"Of course it's out a long time ago, and both mother and child are safe. Our nurse Wang is amazing."
Dr. Hu thought Xiao Wu was talking about giving birth.
Xiao Wu was stunned for a moment: "I mean, the well we dug has water coming out!"
Liu Qingshan was originally sitting cross-legged on the ground. When he heard the news, he jumped up.
For him, water is as precious as a new life.
So they didn't even bother to eat. Everyone got on the jeep and hurried back.
On the roof of the jeep, Evya and several of his tribesmen were lying down, and they also wanted to go with them to broaden their horizons.
They were on the carport, and this was a real ride.
They rushed all the way back to the Longteng base, where the well was less than a kilometer away from the base.
With a squeak, the jeep came to a sudden stop, and then several people were thrown off the roof of the shed and fell to the ground along the front of the car.
Everya and the others ignored them. After getting up, they ran towards the shaft.
On the ground, a large iron pipe with a diameter of one foot protruded. Accompanied by the roar of the generator and water pump, a stream of clear underground water gurgled outward.
Efuya and others rushed forward, all kneeling on the ground, holding the cool water in their hands, burying their faces deeply in their hands, and drank fiercely.
The coolness seems to be a little sweet, instantly moisturizing the whole body.
Liu Qingshan also came over, took the water glass from Wang Gong, and took a big sip: "Haha, it tastes good!"
Everyone has joy on their faces, and they all know in their hearts what water means here, it is the real source of life.
"Stop drinking, it's already filling your stomach."
Xiao Wu pulled Efuya up from the ground, only to find that in addition to the water stains on his face, there were also tears.
I saw Everya wiping his eyes with his sleeves several times:
"Liu, Wu, please dig a well for my tribe. Damn the pirates, damn the drought. I want to turn my tribe into the most powerful tribe in Lilan!"
The news that Long Teng was producing water soon spread among the surrounding tribes, and Chief Adu even came over in a bullock cart.
After Gududu drank a ladle of water, he said on the spot that the drilling team must go to their station to dig a well. No matter how many camels were used as payment, he was willing.
However, the drilling team has already gone to Efuya, and it is estimated that it will be at least half a month before it is Chief Adu's turn.
The drilling team, following the medical team, has become the most popular people in this land.
As for Long Teng's station, people are already busy building canals and reclaiming farmland.
The tractors with five-share plows dug out neat rows of fields; the women carried buckets, filled the dug soil pits with water, and then sown seeds representing hope.
Because of the long-term drought, special irrigation facilities will definitely have to be laid in the future, but now, everyone can't wait.
The Chinese people's love for the land is also fully reflected here.
A dozen miles away from Long Teng's station, a power station has also begun construction, and the entire station is in a prosperous atmosphere.
Follow-up construction will require more manpower and material resources, and the current situation is: only investment, no output.
If it weren't for Longteng Company's strong ability to attract money, it really wouldn't be able to sustain itself.
Even so, Liu Qingshan felt that the company's financial resources were a bit stretched, and it was already mid-June and he had to leave here.
March, early spring.

The earth was hazy, and there was a ruined city, silent and lifeless in the dim red rain of blood.
The city is in ruins and everything is withered. Collapsed houses can be seen everywhere, as well as blue-black corpses and pieces of meat, like broken autumn leaves, silently withering.
The streets that used to be bustling with people are now desolate.
The sandy dirt road that used to be bustling with people is no longer noisy now.
Only blood and mud mixed with minced meat, dust, and paper were left, indistinguishable from each other, which was shocking.
Not far away, a broken carriage was stuck deep in the mud, full of sadness. Only an abandoned rabbit doll hung on the shaft, swaying in the wind.
The white fluff has long been soaked into wet red, full of eerieness.
The turbid eyes seemed to have some residual resentment, looking lonely at the mottled rocks in front of them.
There, a figure was lying down.
This is a boy of thirteen or fourteen years old, his clothes are torn and covered with dirt, and he has a broken leather bag tied around his waist.
The young man squinted his eyes and remained motionless. The biting cold penetrated his worn coat from all directions and spread throughout his body, gradually taking away his body temperature.

Following his gaze, he saw a skinny vulture gnawing on the carrion of a wild dog, seven or eight feet away from him, occasionally observing its surroundings vigilantly.
It seems that in this dangerous ruins, if there is the slightest movement, it will instantly rise into the sky.
