Chapter 35: Check Out the Hydropower Station

Looking at his father's unfriendly eyes, Ye Yuze didn't dare to look at him. But the baby was bitter!

He was the one who forced us to drink that wine! At least your son did you a favor by not being drunk by him. It's okay if he doesn't praise you, but why do you want to play mixed doubles?

Mom sighed. "What did the instructor say?"

"The instructor didn't say anything. He is a political cadre. He won't easily express his attitude to someone with a sensitive identity like Lao Wu!"

Dad's expression was a little painful. He seemed to be complaining about something.

"Don't get involved in these things too much in the future. You are just a medical worker. If you always take the lead and go against others, be careful that others will give you a hard time!"

Mom looked a little worried. She has never been able to deal with her husband's straightforwardness.

Dad lit a cigarette and took a deep breath.

"His heart is not very good. There are still old injuries left in his body from the war. I'm afraid he can't stand going into the water like this every day!"

"Dad, who is he? Why is there a gunshot wound?"

Ye Yuze finally couldn't help asking.

"Shut up!"

It's rare for mom and dad to get together, and they're targeting him. They even shouted slogans in unison!

Ye Yuze didn't dare to speak, and secretly wondered what the canal looked like? I have to go and see it.

Although mom and dad were in a bad mood, they didn't miss a meal. There was no way, the snow chicken tasted so good.

Ye Yufan didn't raise his head once during the meal. He was always concentrating on dealing with the chicken bones.

After dinner, mom was busy cleaning up the dishes. The time at noon was very short. Basically, you have to leave after dinner.

Now because Ye Yuze was at home, they could at least rest for a while after dinner.

After his parents went out, Ye Yuze also sneaked out.

If he was found by his younger brother, he would not be able to leave.

He went to Yang Geyong's house to find him and asked him to take him to the canal of the power station to have a look.

The two rode horses to the canal. The rivers in northern Xinjiang are all mountain springs and snow water. Because they flow down from the top of the mountain. So the water is turbulent.

Because half of it is snow water, it is winter. The water flow is reduced by half.

The people in the company used this flow rate to dig ditches on the hillside. To divert water to higher ground.

A large reservoir was also built. To ensure the water supply of the power station.

The canal is not wide, about two meters. Both sides are built with stones. Very clean.

Yang Geyong took Ye Yuze to the edge of the reservoir. It is about thirty meters square.

At this time, the ice had been broken. The water in the pool was clear to the bottom. Even the colorful stones below were clearly visible.

Ye Yuze's heart suddenly moved. The stones in the northern border are good things!

But what is that? Ye Yuze stared at the fish in it with wide eyes.

They shook their heads and strolled leisurely in the water. The key is that they are all big fish!

Ye Yuze looked at Yang Geyong, "Don't people in the company eat fish?"

"Eat! The adults are busy. When the weather is warm, they will go fishing on Sundays."

Ye Yuze nodded, and he didn't expect to accidentally discover a natural fish pond.

The key point is that there is no mud in the river here, only sand and pebbles. What would the fish raised in such clear water taste like?

Ye Yuze licked his lips and seemed to see a braised fish smiling at him.

The east end of the reservoir is the outlet of the spillway.

The water flows down from here to the huge turbine of the generator set with a drop of 50 meters.

Maybe they are afraid that something will be swept in. A thick iron fence made of welded steel bars was installed at the entrance of the spillway.

It seems that the reservoir is more troublesome to break the ice. The two-meter-wide canal is not a big problem.

The two people were strolling when they heard a noise coming from the canal.

The two people walked over and found that it was Wu Tianming who was smashing a large piece of ice there.

He was wearing water pants and standing on a small boat welded with iron plates. He tried his best to swing a pickaxe and smash it from below.

"Bang!" The ice broke into pieces under the pickaxe.

Seeing Ye Yuze and the others coming, Wu Tianming smiled and waved.

"Two little drinking buddies, are you here to drink with me?"

He smiled brightly. But his lips and face were indeed purple.

Working in the water at such a temperature, it is inevitable that your clothes will get wet even if you pay more attention. How can you not be cold?

Ye Yuze's nose was a little sour. Ye Yuze felt close to this optimistic guy from the bottom of his heart.

Now that he saw him suffering like this, how could he not feel uncomfortable?

In the past, the whole company broke the ice once every three days. It was enough to maintain the water consumption of the power station.

But now he is asked to patrol and break the ice every day. In this way, he can't be idle at all.

Because it must be frozen every morning. So in the morning, he has to smash the whole canal and reservoir.

Then he dare not go to bed too early at night, and he has to comb the whole canal. Otherwise, the ice layer will be too thick in the morning and it will be difficult to smash.

But facing such work, this person is still cheerful. How open-minded must his personality be?

Ye Yuze also smiled and responded:

"Don't hurt us, you guy. It's okay if you drink. We both got beaten up when we got home. Our butts still hurt!"

Wu Tianming was stunned for a moment. Then he understood what this mixed doubles meant. He laughed.

He pointed at Ye Yuze and cursed: "Does your mother know that you used this word?"

Ye Yuze quickly covered his butt. "Don't tell on me, or I won't let you drink anymore."

Ye Yuze and Yang Geyong jumped onto the boat, which was very small, about one meter wide and more than two meters long.

There was no oar, only a wooden stick. It seemed that the boat was rowed with the stick.

Ye Yuze picked up the stick and tested the water depth. It was about two meters.

Looking at the wires above his head, Ye Yuze asked.

"Old Wu, do we have any small motors in our company?"

Wu Tianming seemed very satisfied with Ye Yuze's address. He smiled and asked:

"Xiao Ye, there are all kinds of motors in the power station. What do you want to do?"

Ye Yuze coughed. "Do you believe me if I say I can help you make an icebreaker?"

Wu Tianming shook his head. "I don't believe you! You, a boy, go home quickly, or you will catch a cold."

Ye Yuze didn't argue with him, and called Yang Geyong to walk towards the hydropower station below.

The power station was not big, with only three rooms, one of which was a large room with hydropower turbine generator equipment. The other was a distribution room.

Connected to the distribution room was a duty room. There was only a bed inside.

A strong man with a full beard saw them coming in and laughed:

"Ye Yuze, why are you here? There is high voltage here, go home quickly!"

Ye Yuze naturally knew this man. He was his neighbor, Wei Yuxiang's father Wei Zhongyi.

Knowing that he worked here, Ye Yuze dared to push the door and enter. If it were someone else, he would really have to be more cautious. After all, children are not allowed to enter such places.
