My Abandoned Oil Town Became a New Frontier

Chapter 27 The Tangled Toilet

Binghu Village,

Xu Xing didn’t know that his resume had caused a sensation in the Nanjie office.

hang up the phone,

 He returned to the house again.

“Uncle Liu, I was a community worker in Asai County just now and chatted with them about the water and electricity issues in Binghu Village!”

Xu Xing said to Liu Ming.

 Liu Ming is now considered a member of Binghu Village, and there are some things that he must know.

And if nothing else happens, he was also the first village director of Binghu Village.

no way,

There is no third person except them in Binghu Village.

 “Ice Lake Village?”

 “Well! It is now affiliated to the Asai County Nanjie Office.”

“Will the water and electricity be delivered back and forth from the county? In that case, we probably won’t be able to get there within a few years.”

 A trace of worry flashed across Liu Ming's face.

 Obviously,

 Liu Ming is well aware of the efficiency of certain units.

 He chose to live here because he likes the night sky and the exclusive solitude, but this does not mean that everything has to be done by hand, especially water and electricity.

Summer is okay,

If you don’t have stable water and electricity in winter, it’s not about whether you want to live there permanently, but about challenging your limits.

“No, I finally chose to handle the water and electricity by myself. The water and electricity subsidy there is 400 per capita per year.”

 Xu Xing shook his head.

“Do it yourself? Yes! You can do it yourself faster than they do.”

Liu Ming breathed a sigh of relief, and the way he looked at Xu Xing changed slightly from before.

"Um!"

“Uncle, what do you want to eat for lunch? I’ll cook for us right now!” He raised his hand and looked at the time.

Xu Xingxing again.

 After a few phone calls, it was already 12 noon before I knew it, and it was dinner time.

“Xiao Xu, you can eat whatever you want! By the way, are there any other carts besides pickup trucks here?”

 Liu Ming stood up and moved his body slightly.

 In fact, Liu Ming originally knew how to cook, but after trying Xu Xing's cooking yesterday, he completely gave up the idea of ​​cooking for the two of them.

It's not that he's too lazy to cook, but that he's afraid that Xu Xing won't be able to eat the food he cooked.

“Trolley? Uncle Liu, why do you want a trolley?”

Xu Xing paused, a little surprised.

“That’s right! I checked the weather forecast this morning, and it said that there will be a heavy rainfall in northwest Xia starting the day after tomorrow, and it will last for a long time.

 I just thought that while the weather is fine, we can get a toilet outside for us, which would be more convenient. "

 Liu Ming explained.

 Others don’t know his details, but Xu Xing knows very well that building a toilet is more childish than pediatrics.

“Ah? It might rain the day after tomorrow? Is it going to last for a short time?”

Xu Xing was startled.

To be honest, he has never cared about the weather since he came to Binghu Town. He subconsciously thought that it was sunny most of the time in the northwest. If Liu Ming hadn't reminded him at this time, he would not have known.

"Um!"

“Uncle Liu, can you drive?”

Xu Xing suddenly thought of something, and immediately looked at Liu Ming.

"Can!"

"Otherwise, I'll take care of the toilet repairs. This afternoon you drive the pickup truck to Asai County to purchase some supplies. I'm worried that if the rain lasts for a long time, things will be delayed."

Xu Xingxing again.

  "Purchasing supplies?"   Liu Ming subconsciously turned his head and glanced at the Caigang kitchen.

“Yes, the rainfall process seems to be very long this time, so we should replenish it.”

"Well! Uncle Liu, in addition to some daily necessities, I will buy you a quilt! By the way, if you are done with things, go to the Nanjie Office in the county seat and do a permanent residence registration."

 Xu Xing nodded.

If it had not rained, there would be no need to purchase supplies now, but now that the situation is not right, we have to change our plans temporarily, because once it rains, there will be no way to dig through the ruins for scrap materials to pawn.

 Once the **** value system is gone, it is just a decoration and must rely on existing supplies.

 Having said that,

Xu Xing took out another two hundred yuan in cash and handed it over.

“Uncle Liu, take these two hundred pieces first, and I will transfer three thousand to you later. It should be enough.”

no way!

Xu Xing also wanted to give more, but now he only had so much, and it was all given by others in the past two days. If it had been a few days ago, he would have just stared at it even if he knew it was going to rain.

"Registered permanent resident? Okay! Then I'll go this afternoon and try to come back early tomorrow! But you keep the money, I still have some here, it should be enough."

 Liu Ming did not receive cash.

　　He lost his supplies but not his wallet while hiking.

 “How about that?”

 Xu Xing gave way again.

During the chat in the morning, Liu Ming talked a lot about the past. He knew that although Liu Ming had a high social status before, he no longer had much money in his hands.

"Xiao Xu, I'm very grateful that you can take me in! Besides, if it weren't for me, you wouldn't have to buy supplies! The rain in the northwest is not the plum rain in the south."

 Liu Ming shook his head firmly.

"Can"

"Xiao Xu, just listen to me this time, otherwise I will feel really bad! When I really run out of money, how about spending the money again at that time?"

 “That’s okay then!”

Looking at Liu Ming's sincere and persistent eyes, Xu Xing hesitated to speak, and finally took the money back.

he knows,

If Liu Ming is not allowed to spend money this time, Liu Ming will not be so comfortable living here, which is actually not good.

 “Okay! Make a list when you have lunch!”

"Um!"

Time flies and it’s two o’clock in the afternoon.

Beside the hut,

A pickup truck drove away, leaving only Xu Xing alone.

After making a decision at noon, the two had a hasty lunch, and then Xu made a list of supplies.

 Except for the bedding that Liu Ming needs, he basically has some grain, oil, vegetables, and meat.

And this time Xu Xing specifically told Liu Ming to buy fresh meat.

 As a top chef,

Even without a refrigerator, he still has a way to store these fresh meats and vegetables.

“Uncle Liu is right, the toilet must be built before it rains, otherwise it will be inconvenient, but what kind of toilet should be built?”

Xu Xing glanced behind him.

 In fact, you don’t have to worry about the location of the toilet at all. There is a large open space to the west of the three color steel houses, which is mainly used to build some type of toilet.

 A dry toilet?

 It’s quite easy to build, just dig a hole there and build a shed over it.

 But it’s summer now,

 The smell of the toilet is definitely not light.

Water closet?

The smell of water toilets is much smaller than that of dry toilets. But now there is no water or electricity in Binghu Town, so there is no condition for building water toilets!

“Then how can we do it? Neither dry toilets nor water toilets work. What other toilets are there?”

 Xu Xing was in trouble for a while.

Jingle Bell.

But just when Xu Xing was hesitant about going to the toilet, his cell phone rang suddenly.

"Um?"

Take it out and take a look,

 After seeing the caller ID clearly, Xu Xing suddenly showed a look of surprise.
