After dinner, Wang Han and a few other men installed the generator, and the entire homestay was powered.
This small generator can easily power their small house, not to mention they don't have any large-powerful household appliances, just a light now.
"This is a water purifier, it's great. The quality of our tap water has been getting worse recently." Zhou Yingying complained.
Most of the water they drink recently is the water condensed by Xin Li using his supernatural powers, and the rest of the water is tap water.
"This is normal. The water plant is not operating anymore and the large filters are aging. The water quality will only get worse in the future," said Ding Yunxuan.
"If you drink too much water of poor quality, you will get sick." Zhu Jingjing frowned and said with some concern.
The days ahead will only get worse. How can they get better and live safely and stably in such apocalyptic world?
"From now on, to ensure safety, we will use water purified by Xinli for drinking, and use filtered water for washing clothes and bathing." Lin Xiajin said in a deep voice.
"I'm fine!" Xin Li said. She has now crossed the bottleneck of level 1 and has recently absorbed a lot of crystal beads. She is almost at level 2. The amount of water she condenses every day is enough for them to drink.
In the past, when people in Huangshi Ancient Village were short of water, they would ask Xin Li to condense water.
"How many filter elements are there? They need to be replaced once every half a month. If the water quality is worse, it may take a week." Wang Han asked.
"There are several large boxes." Lin Xiajin said after thinking for a while.
That will be enough for them for now.
This time, not only did they discover the problem with the water quality, but others also noticed that the water quality had deteriorated.
"Mayor! The water quality is getting worse and worse. Can't we use our water plant?" Guo Kai asked.
"It's not that it can't be used, it's that the water plant's filter tanks need to be replaced with new ones. The ones in the warehouse have been used up long ago." The mayor sighed.
"Then boil the water first. This is the only way now. Where else can we find a sink like this?" said another man.
"Go to other cities to look for tap water?" Guo Kai frowned and said.
If the water quality deteriorates for a short period of time, you can still use it, but if the water quality deteriorates for a long time, people will have problems.
"There are also water-related psychics in our town, and many of them have started selling psychic water now."
"Oh, or we can go to Yancheng and find some purifiers to put in the water pipes."
A few people discussed and decided that finding a purifier would be a good idea...
The number of people going to Yancheng has increased significantly in the past week, most of them going there to look for air purifiers.
However, Lin Xiajin's homestay suddenly had electricity. No one noticed it during the day, but at night, the electricity was quickly discovered.
It’s just Lin Xiajin’s side, and Xiao Yuan’s side as well…
On the evening when the electricity was turned on, the neighbor next door knocked on the door again...
"What's the matter?" It was Zhang Yuan who opened the door.
"I want to ask how you get the electricity? Do we want it too?" the woman asked.
"Think for yourself!" Zhang Yuan slammed the door.
The neighbor across the street made trouble the last time they found pork, and now she wants to make trouble for them again this time?
You're really sick!
There was no problem on the second day, but on the third day, they turned on one more light and found that the power was unstable.
"What's going on?" The light flickered...
"I'll go take a look." Wang Han took his tools and went to check the generator in the yard, and found that the power was too large...
"I see that the neighbors across the street also have electricity." Xin Li said. They lived on the second floor and could see that the lights across the street were also on.
"What's going on?" Zhou Yingying asked.
"Did they steal our electricity?" Lin Xiajin frowned. She couldn't see anything now and didn't know whether there was light on the other side.
Soon all the lights on the opposite side went out.
"Someone secretly connected our wires from the outside, which caused the generator power to become too large and unstable." Wang Han said, picking up a bunch of wire ends in his hand.
"That's too much! He even steals electricity!" Zhou Yingying said angrily.
There are all kinds of people these days!
Not only Lin Xiajin and his team encountered this problem, but Xiao Yuan also encountered this problem, so they handled it in a timely manner.
Soon some people started coming to the house to cause trouble. They were all neighbors who had secretly installed their electrical wires.
“How come you cut our wires!”
“That’s right!”
"Pay me money! Don't match the crystal beads!"
There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!
Bang, bang, bang, there was constant knocking on the door.
"I'll go take a look." Lin Xia Ran said.
When I opened the door, there were quite a few people standing outside.
"So many of you secretly connected our electrical wires, causing our electricity supply to be unstable! I haven't settled the score with you yet! But you guys did it first!" Zhou Yingying ran over and yelled outside.
"What do you mean by stealing wires?"
Everyone seemed to know that they were in the wrong and remained silent.
"You didn't get our permission, isn't this stealing..." Lin Xia Ran frowned and said.
"That's right! So many people are secretly connecting wires, and now no one can use electricity!" Zhou Yingying said, "We just use your electricity! We are all neighbors and we should help each other..." a woman said shamelessly.
"Yes! Look! I'm more than 8 months pregnant now, and I'm going to give birth next month. It will be more convenient for me to have an electric light at night." said a pregnant woman with a big belly.
Lin Xiajin frowned slightly as she heard these words. They had never thought that there would be such a trouble when they brought back the generator.
There weren't many people in the Huangshi Ancient Village at that time, so there wouldn't be so much trouble.
Lin Xiajin said a few words in Xin Li's ear...
Xin Li frowned slightly and asked, "Is this okay?"
"Well, otherwise they will come to cause trouble again!" Lin Xiajin said.
Xin Li nodded. What Lin Xiajin said was a solution. Otherwise, even if all the wires were cut today, wouldn’t they be able to secretly connect them tomorrow?
Xin Li walked to the gate and said to them, "Let's put it this way! It took us a lot of effort to bring this generator back, and you connected it randomly, so the power is unstable and no one can use it."
"Any of you who want to use it can pay me three crystal beads every month. Any attribute is fine!"
Everyone was silent! I have to pay crystal beads just to use electricity?
"This...otherwise no one can use it!" Xin Li said.
"And we will remove all the external wires, so you won't be able to use them even if you want to!" Xin Li continued.
"Can you make it cheaper? Three crystal beads are a bit too much!"
“That’s right!”
"Three crystal beads, that means we need to kill three zombies every month!"
Everyone was a little dissatisfied and wanted to lower the price...? Lin Xiajin also walked over slowly, and she said coldly: "Then each family can get one crystal bead per month, but we will limit the time and power!"
