Su Xiao curled her lip in disdain, "This well is only one meter deep, how many buckets of water can it hold?"
"Hmm?" Xiao Liu asked in confusion, "When I saw other masters using the spiritual spring water in the well, I never saw the spiritual spring water in the well decrease. Even if they took too much at once, it would be full again in three to five days."
"Bang!"
"What did you say?"
Su Xiao threw down the shovel, put her hands on her hips, and glared angrily at Xiao Liu.
Xiao Liu was startled and shrank back as far as he could.
Su Xiao looked at its cowardly appearance and didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
She walked to the dry well, and combining what Xiao Liu had said earlier, she had a bold guess in her mind. Excited, she immediately left the space and came to her own well.
She fetched a bucket of water and went to the space well, poured it in, and then, to her surprise, found that the water slowly seeped through the cobblestone walls and disappeared.
With a snap of his fingers, he exclaimed, "Just as I thought!"
"Master, what does this mean?" Little Six floated over and asked timidly.
"Hmph, what use are you to me?" Su Xiao felt wronged when she thought about how she had worked herself to the bone watering the plants these past few days.
"Little Six is very useful." Little Six said anxiously, "Master, Master, I'm here to report on Su Peipei's latest situation. She just got thwarted again..."
Su Xiao was just saying that casually. Little Six was still quite cute, and seeing its anxious attempts to please her, she went along with it and asked, "What happened?"
Su Peipei has been very busy these past few days. After leaving the state-run restaurant, she went home first and stole a large sum of money that Liu Cuihua had hidden. Liu Cuihua usually left this money untouched, so she hadn't noticed it was missing all these days.
With her capital, Su Peipei began to travel around the streets and alleys of Nancheng, visiting several scrap metal collection stations and exchanging several good items at low prices from different people.
Just like the pickle jar that came from the Zheng family, it was an antique from the Tang Dynasty. In later years, it was bought at a low price by someone who knew its value. That person even took the jar on an antique program. When the Zheng family heard the news, they were not happy and went to ask the other party for money. This matter caused quite a stir at the time, and Su Peipei remembered it.
This time, she acted first and got the treasure first.
In addition, she focused on visiting the homes of those who had been denounced as part of the "five categories of elements" (a term referring to elements of the five categories of criminal elements).
Even a starved camel is bigger than a horse, and a broken boat still has three pounds of nails.
Everyone has a backup plan.
Only families like that would have good things, and indeed, she knew of several families who, shortly after being exonerated, either revived their businesses or simply went abroad.
Using this method, she did indeed earn her first pot of gold from Wang Biao.
However, she knew that Nancheng was only so big, and she couldn't make money by collecting antiques forever.
If you want to make a fortune, you have to go out and explore.
With the capital she had, she wanted to go to Haishi to see if there were any business opportunities, or perhaps even start her own small workshop...
She had many ideas, but at this time, even going on a long trip required a letter of introduction, and the first thing she needed to do was get one.
At this moment, she thought of Shu Bowen again. As the son of Factory Director Shu, it would be a piece of cake for Shu Bowen to get her a few letters of introduction. So, she had to get on Shu Bowen's good side first.
Today, seizing the opportunity, she sneaked into the machinery factory and quickly found Shu Bowen's workshop.
Shu Bowen is a technician who is involved in researching a new project at the factory. His workshop is required to keep it confidential.
Su Peipei was arrested as soon as she entered and locked in a small dark room.
Xiao Liu described it vividly, and Su Xiao listened as she walked towards the moat in the south of the city.
She suspected that the dry well could hold water and that it was connected to the underground soil.
Once the water is filled, she might not need to water the plants anymore.
