298 The Well-Digger

Du Yue glanced at Wan Dapeng and then at Yu Xinya. She did not know why, but she felt that Wan Dapeng had inexplicable feelings for Xinya. Before Du Yue could come to a conclusion, the car stopped again. There was a special yard in the base with many electric bikes. Each bike was equipped with well-digging tools and water pipes.

They had just stepped into the courtyard's gate when someone came up to them very enthusiastically and asked them if they were going to dig a well. While Yu Xinya was talking to the man, Du Yue saw that the others who were waiting for work in the courtyard were all looking at them with complicated expressions. She even heard someone mumbling, This kid has such a good life! It wasn't easy for a customer to come, but he beat us to it again.

The people around him also echoed in a low voice, We can't do anything about it. He's just too fast?

Don't worry. A lot of people came to the base yesterday. The empty courtyards and houses in the base have all been rented to them. If they want to live here, they must have to dig a well. We'll be able to get a job sooner or later!

Du Yue finally understood what was going on after listening to their soft discussion.

These people were all from the well-digging team. Their vehicles were parked in the yard, and they were all waiting at the door. Now that someone had come in, it all depended on who was faster. They were really earning money with their own abilities. Not only did they have to rely on their well-digging skills, but they also had to be smart and be able to persuade the customers.

How much do you need to dig a well?

The price is charged by the well's depth. One meter is two contribution points. The specific price depends on how deep you want to dig.

What about the water pipe and the water pump? Will you give it to us or do we buy them ourselves?

Of course, you'll have to buy them yourself. The fees we charge only include the digging of the well, not the tools.

Yu Xinya was a little embarrassed, but she knew that this man was not lying to her.

Not to mention after the apocalypse, even before that, these things had to be bought with their own money. Then the price

The price of a water pipe is not high. One meter is one contribution point. There are many kinds of water pumps. The better the price, the better it is. It's up to you to choose.

Hearing the words of the man, Yu Xinya was also calculating in her heart. The sum of these expenses was not small. The contribution points in her card were limited, so she was suddenly in a difficult position. If she spent too much, she was afraid that she would not be able to pay the rent in the future.

Du Yue, who had been listening to the conversation between the man and Yu Xinya, finally opened her mouth. Can we buy the water pump here? Can we take a look at it first?

Yes, we have it here. I'll take you there now!

As they followed the man inside, Du Yue approached He Xing and whispered, Do you know how to operate a water pump?

I do, don't worry. He Xing's voice was not loud, but it was firm.

Du Yue looked at him in disbelief. Do you guys use water pumps too? Could it be that the people in the interstellar also needed to use wells to draw water?

We don't use it, but as long as it's related to machinery, I know about it. I've read all the books you've collected about it.

Du Yue was speechless. She was shocked. Although she knew that He Xing would read a lot when he had nothing to do, she did not expect him to have an eidetic memory! Before Du Yue could recover from her shock, they had already entered the house.

Here are all the water pumps, both expensive and cheap. Do you need me to introduce them to you one by one?

He Xing waved his hand. It's alright. We can take a look at them for ourselves. After saying that, he took two steps forward and began to choose. After scanning through all the water pumps, He Xing pointed at one of them and said, I'll take this one. This one costs 30 contribution points, right?

The worker did not expect He Xing to make a decision so quickly. He was stunned for a moment before he came to his senses and nodded. Yes, 30 contribution points.

Where do I swipe my card?

This side of the counter. Just follow me. Du Yue followed the worker to the counter, took out her identity card, and paid the bill.

Her actions were so fast that Yu Xinya and Wan Dapeng were stunned. Sister Little Sister! Yu Xinya quickly walked to Du Yue. Why are you paying for it? We should think about it carefully. We don't understand these things. What if we buy a bad product
