I’m Hoarding for the Apocalypse

300 You’re Actually a Well-Digger

When He Xing was choosing a water pump earlier, he only wanted to choose a cheap one. However, he did not expect that the well would be 52 meters deep. This water pump obviously could not bear the intensity of the work.

Even if it managed to hold on, it would not take long before it broke down. Du Yue knew very little about this. Naturally, she would listen to He Xing. She nodded and said, “Alright, we’ll do as you say.”

As the two of them talked in a low voice, the large water tower connected to the water pump was slowly filling up. Hearing the sound of water flowing, everyone’s face was filled with happy smiles. Especially those young children, who were jumping up and down in joy. These kids were all around three to four years old and were the youngest residents in Sunshine Base. Most of them were born in extremely hot weather, so they could be said to be very experienced despite being young. The children who had survived all kinds of natural disasters had good physical fitness and rarely fell sick.

It was just that all of them were very thin. Children naturally had bigger heads and smaller bodies, but due to long-term malnutrition, these children were too thin, which made their heads look particularly big. Before the apocalypse, there were many children in the community where Du Yue lived. They often played hide-and-seek in the community garden and slid down slides. They were so happy just jumping around.

Du Yue had also heard their parents gather together and complain that their children had too many toys, so much so that their houses were almost full of them. However, every time they went out, the little devils at home would insist on buying new ones. Looking at the children in front of her now, they might not even know what a toy was.

They were so happy just because they had dug a well. The sound of water flowing could make them so happy. As the water tower was huge and the well was too deep, the water came out slowly. It took half an hour before the water tower was filled. After turning off the water pump, He Xing walked over and said, “Take the water pump down. I’ll modify it. The speed of water extraction is too slow now. It’ll spoil easily.”

When Wan Dapeng heard this, he looked at He Xing in shock. “Brother, I didn’t expect you to be a well-digger considering your fair skin! You really can’t judge a book by its cover!”
