The heavy rain persisted for three days before it finally cleared up. Although everyone was restricted from going outside due to the rain, just listening to the gentle sound of rain outside the factory was enough to delight their spirits.

Thanks to the continuous downpour over these three days, the survivors could finally freely enjoy the "nourishment of drinking water," and even the luxury of bathing became a regular occurrence during this period.

As soon as the sky cleared, the air was still filled with the scent of moisture, and the small puddles formed on the ground reflected specks of light like mirrors.

Currently, Zhao Yunhai was most concerned about his Water Storage Tanks. It was crucial for the entire factory, and if they were unable to store water as expected, it would undoubtedly be a significant blow to the morale of the survivors.

Almost all the team members gathered outside the ironing room, nervously watching Zhao Yunhai and Wang Junfa as they stood before the Water Storage Tanks.

"Zhao Shu? How's it going? Is it holding water?" Tang Xiaoquan asked in a particularly soft voice, with a cautious demeanor as if the slightest neglect would cause the tank in front of them to shatter.

Zhao and Wang didn't hurry to answer. They first inspected the surroundings of the tank. Unfortunately, the recent cessation of rain made it impossible to determine from the wet exterior whether there was any seepage inside.

Left with no choice, Zhao Yunhai lifted a corner of the waterproof cover and reached inside. The result was the same—the heavy rain had completely soaked both inside and outside of the tank.

Given the circumstances, Zhao Yunhai had to give up, and with a bitter smile, he shrugged at Tang Xiaoquan who asked the question earlier, shaking his head and said, "The water is indeed filled to the brim, but the tank is soaking wet. Given the current situation, we still can't confirm where this moisture originates."

Tang Xiaoquan nodded indifferently after hearing Zhao's response, feeling a twinge of tightness in his heart.

If the source of the moisture was merely due to rain, that would be acceptable. However, if it were due to the waterproof fabric inside being inadequate, that would be...

He wanted to speak to Wang Junfa again to confirm the reliability of the so-called fabric certification. But after some hesitation, he dismissed the idea.

Firstly, because Wang Junfa had just recovered, Tang Xiaoquan didn't want to upset him over this matter.

Secondly, they had only known each other for a short time, and altogether they had exchanged no more than three sentences, so it felt somewhat impolite to question him with such distrust.

With this in mind, Tang Xiaoquan reluctantly agreed, "Oh, in that case, let's move these Water Storage Tanks indoors first. As for confirming the details, there's no need to rush. When the sun comes out, everything will naturally become clear."

After listening to the young man's words, everyone found them reasonable, and they all pitched in to move the tanks.

After all, the sun is scorching and water is precious; any loss of water due to evaporation is something the survivors couldn't afford.

However, the process of moving them turned out to be far more complicated than the survivors had imagined, and ultimately, they had to use pushing and pulling techniques to get the three heavy tanks inside the ironing room.

To ensure the cleanliness of the water, Lin Junfu routinely cut several large pieces of waterproof fabric and placed them over the surface of the tanks.

Thus, even if the rainwater evaporated due to the rise in temperature, it would condense into water vapor on the waterproof layers and fall back into the tanks.

Once everything was completed, everyone exited the room, and Lin Junfu carefully locked the door tight.

Undoubtedly, from this moment on, the room's importance to the entire group of survivors was beyond question, so the manager naturally needed to choose someone responsible and meticulous to oversee it.

Scanning over everyone in front of him, Lin Junfu finally set his gaze on a graceful figure standing in the rear of the crowd.

"Hehe, Xiao Wei!" A smile appeared on his face, but Lin Junfu quickly returned to seriousness and said solemnly, "From now on, I'll entrust you with the key to this room. You'll be responsible for coordinating all water needs in the factory."

"Me?" Wei Yang responded somewhat uncertainly, clearly surprised by his arrangement.

She was well aware of the earlier conflict between Dazhuang and Lin Junfu regarding bathwater when they first arrived, although she didn't think she would manage the water any worse than Wei Dazhuang.

However, previously, the management had been in Dazhuang's hands, and she hadn't long ago had a significant dispute with him, so taking over this task might seem like overstepping her boundaries.

So...

With a polite smile, Wei Yang humbly declined, "Manager Lin, I'm still too young. Such a heavy responsibility placed on me makes me worry about my lack of experience, leading to potential mistakes in the future."

Upon hearing this, Lin Junfu chuckled. He understood the girl's real concerns and immediately, to dispel her doubts, said with a smile:

"You shouldn't be too modest, Xiao Wei! I chose you for this role because I have full confidence in your abilities. Firstly, you check and medicate the patients timely, which shows patience. Secondly, your argument with Dazhuang shows your ability to stand by your principles. Lastly, your medical knowledge is crucial for ensuring the safety of our water supply. Considering all this, do you still think you're not qualified for this responsibility? Of course, as an administrator, you shouldn't feel too burdened. If you encounter any unsolvable issues, you can always come and consult with everyone. Hehe."

After saying this, Lin Junfu again turned his gaze towards Wei Yang, with his signature smile once more on his face.

By this point in the situation, if Wei Yang continued to refuse, it would seem overly pretentious, so she didn't hesitate and quickly responded, "Alright then, since Manager Lin insists, I'll give it a try. If I don't do well, you can replace me with someone else."

Having resolved the Water Room issue, everyone gradually returned indoors. Although the waterproof nature of the material hadn't been verified, overall, there was no immediate concern about the water supply for a while.

After all, the survivors had survived for nearly half a month relying on just one water tank for over 20 people, so with three additional tanks, it was believed they could manage for about a month with careful use.

With the water problem essentially solved, the food problem was once again brought to the fore by the survivors.
