Chapter 236 I appreciate your kindness, let's talk business
For a while.
More than thirty people gathered around, chattering to Jiang Tian about the situation.
The scene was a bit noisy, almost like watching a show.
Jiang Tian was speechless as he looked at his subordinates who were watching him.
He clapped his hands and ordered:
"Okay, be quiet first! Come and stand in line in front of me!"
As soon as these words came out, the noise immediately stopped.
Huo Qubing took the lead and arranged for everyone to line up neatly according to their size, age, etc.
After everything was arranged, Jiang Tian looked at the people in front of him and said loudly:
"I have something to announce to everyone. According to Mr. Gang Song, there may be a heavy rainstorm accompanied by strong winds in the next two days. Therefore, I hope everyone will be mentally prepared to face this natural disaster together."
Hearing this, the people who had received this news for the first time looked at each other again.
Many people tentatively asked:
"Heavy rain? Extremely heavy?"
"How big is it?"
"Boss, we have had rain here before, and there was hail a few days ago... How big can this rain be to make you so interested?"
"As for the scale of this heavy rain, I don't know yet. This is what Mr. Song just told me."
Jiang Tian shook his head, and then shouted to one direction of the crowd:
"Mr. Song, please come and introduce the situation to everyone. According to your estimate, how big this heavy rain will be."
Song Yingxing nodded, walked out of the queue and stood next to Jiang Tian.
I also asked others to estimate the intensity of the rain.
When making the estimate, I pointed towards the wooden house where a few little old men lived.
What it means is that this unstable wooden house may be washed under the island by this violent storm.
After Song Yingxing finished his introduction.
Jiang Tian told everyone:
"Everyone should be aware of this situation, so now we need to make some changes to our work arrangements.
The construction workers and blacksmiths temporarily put aside their work and took the time to re-lay the foundation of the wooden house firmly.
In addition, wooden buildings such as warehouses, cowsheds, old kitchens and toilets were demolished, and the wood was recycled to build warehouses and cowsheds with larger space and stronger foundations. A large warehouse dedicated to storing wood was built on the east side.
At the same time, a group of people were assigned to make plant ash cement and paste it on the outside of the wooden building to prevent heavy rains from causing water seepage inside.
People in other positions will remain as usual for the time being... By the way, Mr. Song and Mr. Sun.
In terms of growing plants, collect all the mature fruits and vegetables and put them in the stone brick house.
Some immature plants that can be planted in pots or barrels or can be transported indoors should be transported indoors temporarily and do not plant new plants in the past two days.
Then, temporarily recycle the vegetable greenhouses, and then consider planting after the heavy rain is over."
Everyone nodded in agreement to these instructions.
However, Shi Zhigang glanced at the water storage pond to the north again, with an awkward expression on his face.
"Boss, there's nothing else, except that making cement requires water. If the surfaces of all wooden buildings are covered with cement, a lot of water will be needed.
We don’t have much water left, not to mention there are a lot of fish in it, you see..."
Jiang Tian also glanced at the reservoir, waved his hand and said:
"You don't have to worry about the water problem. As long as it is for making cement, just use it. Of course, you have to save it for washing and washing these two days.
As for those fish..."
Jiang Tian thought for a while and made a decision:
"If there is not enough water in the pond for so many fish to survive, then I will sell all the fish and focus on the work I have arranged. As long as it rains then, all the water resources will be replenished, so it will not be a problem.
"
At this time.
Tang Yan, who had not yet arrived and left, interrupted.
"No, boss. What if we run out of water and it doesn't rain?"
As soon as these words came out, the other members who had not left also looked at Jiang Tian with worried expressions.
In this weather, if the stored water is used up, how will we live in the future?
Song Yingxing looked a little embarrassed when he heard this.
He said it was going to rain.
If it doesn't rain in two days, it will be a slap in the face and the entire island will be in trouble.
For a moment, the atmosphere at the scene was a little subtle.
This time, Jiang Tian did not blame Tang Yan for being so talkative.
After all, even he himself doesn't know whether there will be heavy rain in two days. Water is also very needed in this weather, so it is normal for his subordinates to worry about water resources.
Seeing the expression on Song Yingxing's face, Jiang Tian patted the little old man on the shoulder.
Smile in front of everyone.
"You don't have to think about this kind of thing. I trust Mr. Song's judgment. Besides, even if it doesn't rain, I have a way to solve the problem of water resources. Okay, everyone, just do as I say and speed up."
"Yes, boss."
Seeing Jiang Tian's attitude, Shi Zhigang could understand the seriousness of this matter even more.
After answering, he and Lu Ban began to assign work to the construction members.
Tang Yan said no more and returned to the blacksmith shop to continue his work.
After finishing the instructions, Jiang Tian walked back to the room as he watched each of his subordinates return to their respective posts.
Jiang Tian didn't think there was anything wrong with his decision.
If it were any other survivor, they would definitely be extremely hesitant when faced with this kind of choice.
After all, the weather is getting hotter and hotter now.
If the water is used up but it doesn't rain because of a little old man's guess, it will be a dead end in this environment.
However, Jiang Tian was fearless.
I had a lot of drinking water in the past, and there was so much ice. Even if I ran out of water, I wouldn't die of thirst.
At most, it's just a matter of using a little more water.
Now that you have decided to trust Song Yingxing, there is no need to worry about it.
What should be considered now are other preparations for this heavy rain.
Thinking of this, Jiang Tian opened the trading house.
To make so much plant ash cement, you naturally need a large amount of clay and plant ash.
Then he opened the world channel and regional chat channel and shouted loudly.
"Collect clay! Collect plant ashes! Who the hell sells clay and plant ashes?!
The demand is high, and the price is negotiable! There are also fresh fish for sale!”
As soon as this statement came out.
The originally noisy world channel was shocked again when it saw the messages sent by Jiang Tian.
"cnns1111? This ID looks so familiar!"
"ns1111! He is the shopkeeper of [Business Alliance No. 1]!"
"Collecting clay? Are you going to build a house?"
"It must be. I also wanted to use clay to make bricks and build one for myself, but I had to give up because there was not enough water... By the way, what is the use of collecting plant ash?"
"Didn't he sell plant ash in his store before? Why are they closed now?"
"I've heard of a local method that can use plant ash and clay to make stones. Is this guy going to build a stone-brick house?"
"Oh my god, this is the first time I've heard of such a method!"
"You are focusing on the wrong thing! As we all know, water is needed to build a house. In today's environment, there is not enough water for drinking, and this person actually wants to use it to build a house!
This person's idea is too bold and arrogant! How much water does this person have?!"
