"I'm sorry, sir, are you okay?"

The waiter looked up and saw that the person who was bumped into was Jiang Lili. He became even more nervous and said, "Shopkeeper Jiang! I'm so sorry, I have something urgent to report to Shopkeeper He!"

Jiang Lili waved her hand to show her understanding: "It's okay, go ahead."

The waiter took a few steps forward, then stepped back. He patted his head and said, "Oh, I almost forgot. Shopkeeper He told you to be the shopkeeper here when he's not around. Everyone listens to you. I need to talk to you about this, too."

Jiang Lili was surprised. He Xiuzhu had actually given such instructions. It was obvious that he was sincere and not just going through the motions. "Go ahead and tell me."

"The Haizhu River has risen so much that ships can't sail. Half a month ago, three distinguished guests, introduced by our shopkeeper He, came to Haizhu County to inspect our shopkeeper He's property. They then took a boat from Haizhu County to Bai'an County."

The waiter said with a distressed expression: "Originally, the guests planned to return to Haizhu County in five days and stay at our inn, but now the road is blocked. The guests can't return on time. It would be bad if it delayed their future arrangements and upset them!"

"I'm anxious to discuss this matter with the person in charge."

Jiang Lili was surprised when she heard this. "Hain't the Haizhu River in Haizhu County flooded? It's only been two days of heavy rain, how come it's flooding so fast?"

The waiter sighed, "You don't know, the rain in the upper reaches of the Haizhu River is much heavier than here in the lower reaches!"

The Bai'an River in Bai'an County is one of the main tributaries of the Haizhu River and is deeply affected.

"I heard that several dikes have been breached. The cargo ships carrying hawksbill turtles and timber from Bai'an County are now stranded in Bai'an County and unable to sail. Among them is our storekeeper He's cargo ship."

This waiter is not an ordinary handyman, he is considered a reserve cadre in the inn and is waiting for promotion and salary increase.

He also worried: "You said that this matter has caused a lot of losses for the He family! I don't know if it will affect the supply of goods from the Lingnan He family."

Jiang Lili was worried about how to quickly solve the drought problem in Mi Country. It was impossible to keep sending out red envelopes wishing for rain.

I'm feeling sleepy. Can someone hand me a pillow?

If this matter is done well, we can kill two birds with one stone.

In modern times, there is the South-to-North Water Diversion Project. With the help of group chat, she can also carry out the North-to-South Water Diversion Project across space!

The waiter said, "Manager Jiang, I have to tell the managers of other businesses and shops that your distinguished guest can't return to Haizhu County on time, and your goods are stranded... This is a serious matter. The managers will probably need to meet to discuss it. Manager He will probably have to come as well."

Jiang Lili: "Okay, go ahead!"

After the waiter and Jiang Lili finished their report, they left in a hurry.

Jiang Lili returned to her room and told Wen Qiao the news. Wen Qiao was still waiting for Jiang Lili to discuss with him how to deal with Miguo. He felt a little excited after hearing the news.

@Wen Qiao: I got it out of that fake god's messenger. People from every tribe were taken to the northern part of Mi Country as soldiers. The northern port of Mi Country is the closest place to the southern island of Haizhou Island.

@Jiang Lili: This means the women, children, and elderly left behind in these tribes are likely the families of the soldiers assembled by the Mi Kingdom to capture Haizhou Island!

@Wen Qiao: I will first pray for rain in the various tribes of Mi Country as a spiritual consciousness. As long as I win the hearts of the people, I won't be afraid. Even the people of Mi Country are our people.

@Jiang Lili: Yes, we can use a trick to cut off the fire. If the Mi Kingdom sends people to attack our Haizhou Island and South Island, then we can capture the people of the Mi Kingdom before they can make their plans.

@Wen Qiao: Yes, if the King of Mi and the leader of the northern tribe insist on capturing Haizhou Island, but their entire army's morale is already broken and they can't defeat them, then no matter how many men they have, the three hundred elite soldiers led by your prince will definitely be able to capture it!

Speaking of the prince, Jiang Lili couldn't help but wonder how Xin Che was doing now. Logically, the He family fleet was about to reach Haizhou Island. She sent a message to Guan Yue, who was also on the fleet, to ask indirectly.

@Jiang Lili: Sister Guan, is your voyage going smoothly? Did the handover with Xin Che and the others go smoothly?

@Guan Yue: It's going very smoothly. Don't worry about me taking care of things!

......

During the conversation, Guan Yue even mentioned the uncle in the mountain village who asked Jiang Lili to help get the wild geese last time, but she didn't mention Xin Che, nor did she mention Jiayu.

Jiang Lili couldn't get anything out of him by asking indirectly, so she gave up and continued to discuss with Wen Qiao.

Wen Qiao and Jiang Lili talked more and more, and gradually sorted out their ideas. Now, even if they were short of manpower, they had a trump card to cover the situation.

The Haizhu River was not far from the inn where Jiang Lili was staying by carriage. Jiang Lili planned to go to the Haizhu River as soon as she was ready to transfer water from the north to the south.

She doesn't have much preparation to do, but Wen Qiao still needs to make some arrangements to ensure that the North-to-South Water Diversion Project achieves the best results.

Another day passed.

When it was time for Jiang Lili to have dinner, the innkeeper personally delivered the dinner and gave Jiang Lili a message.

"Manager Jiang, Manager He would like to ask you to go to the Fuzhu Restaurant at 1:00 AM tomorrow morning to host a discussion among the managers of Haizhu County. I wonder if you are available."

What? 1:00 PM, leading the discussion?

It’s early in the morning and the meeting has to start before 8 o’clock!

When Jiang Lili heard this, her brows furrowed slightly.

The innkeeper's ability to see through people's hearts was comparable to that of a lobby manager in a modern five-star hotel. He immediately noticed Jiang Lili's resentment about having a meeting early in the morning.

The innkeeper quickly said, "Don't worry, Manager Jiang. Our head manager said you don't need to worry about anything. We just want you to keep an eye on the place and get to know the people who work under you."

"Also, you don't have to arrive so early. You can be flexible and adapt. The shopkeepers can wait for you. If they don't even have that patience, they don't have to work for our He family."

After hearing this, Jiang Lili's frown relaxed.

I almost forgot, she is the boss in this meeting!

God damn, it's so cool to be the boss! I can be late whenever I want.

The innkeeper continued, "Our Fuzhu Restaurant's morning tea is truly unrivaled in Haizhu County, and even throughout Haizhou Island. Many wealthy families place their orders 10 days to half a month in advance!"

"Okay, I'll go. That's it."

Jiang Lili's tone was very straightforward.

Jiang Lili still planned to arrive on time. She was very concerned about the flooding in the Haizhu River. She also had morning tea! She could also meet the business owners in Haizhu County. Who knew one of them could help her make a fortune!
