Qiao Yaozu couldn't figure it out, but now he had reinforcements. No matter how many devices she had, they had more people and could easily defeat the minority with their superior numbers!
Qiao Yaozu thought about the large amount of food he had mortgaged to Qiao Xuejun, gritted his teeth and agreed: "Okay!"
There were so many. If he hadn't given them to Qiao Xuejun, he could have eaten them all by himself for several years! So, even if he divided them among these two buddies, he would still have a lot left, enough to eat. He just had to snatch them back!
The bearded man let go: "Good brother, that's right."
Qiao Yaozu asked: "Of course, of course. Then when are we going there?"
The bearded man waved his hand and said, "Why are you in such a hurry? We just came all the way here to seek justice for you. We are so tired. Of course we need to rest for a while and eat something. After we have enough food and drink, we can go over!"
Rest, eat and drink!
Qiao Yaozu opened his eyes wide. If they rested now, the sun would have risen soon and it would not be suitable to go out. Wouldn't that mean they would have to rest at home for the whole day and have three meals a day at his house!
This, this is too resource-consuming.
Qiao Yaozu couldn't help but doubt again whether the decision to call them over was correct.
"Lead the way." The bearded man called him.
Qiao Yaozu led the way while asking tentatively, "Brother, you said before that there is a way to force her out without entering her house. What is it?"
The bearded man was pleased with himself and glanced at Qiao Yaozu: "Your water supply should have been cut off a few days ago, right?"
Qiao Yaozu nodded: "Yes, it has been cut off. There has been no water supply. We have been using the water stored at home. It will soon run out. When it runs out, we will have to go to the mountains to fetch water."
Their toilet hasn't been flushed in the past few days! It stinks! Grandpa and grandma even said they have to go outside in the bushes to relieve themselves at night and are not allowed to use the toilet.
The bearded man laughed and said, "Of course, we have taken over the water plant. If you want to use water, you have to pay for it! It's the same for everyone. If you don't pay for it, you won't get any water. Every mountaintop will have our people guarding it, and you have to get our permission to get water!"
Qiao Yaozu's eyes lit up: "So, they would take the initiative to offer tribute for the sake of water!"

"Fixed it, try again."
In the shelter, the young carpenter took a hand-cranked well pump component made of wood and some hardware parts and inserted it into the wellhead.
They dug this well two days ago, but there were still some problems with the hand-cranked parts made by the carpenter. It took another two days to fix it.
The well mouth is not big, a person can stand in it, and it is not deep, about one person tall. The bottom of the well and the stone wall are covered with stones, and the yellow mud is used to make them fit together. But the water inside has just seeped out, and there is a lot of mud, which looks like yellow mud.
After the hand crank was placed into the well, the carpenter used a few wooden boards to fix its position: "Okay, let's try again to see if water can come out."
The four men looked at the well expectantly.
Kuang Qianli stepped forward first. He grasped the hand crank and pressed it down gently. Creaking - creaking - the handle moved up and down, making a friction sound.
He moved slowly and gently, for fear of damaging the water pump.
The young carpenter poured water into the water pump to expel the air in the bamboo tube and make it easier for water to flow out. He encouraged him: "Don't be afraid, just shake it harder and move faster."
After hearing this, Kuang Qianli increased his strength, and the sound of the water pump became louder, clattering.
But the sounds became more and more different, and a gurgling sound came from the bamboo tube.
Qiao Xuejun leaned in to listen: "The water seems to be coming up, Kuang Shen insists."
Wang Juanfeng also leaned in to listen, his eyes slightly lit up, and nodded: "Yes, yes, Kuang Shen insisted!"
Kuang Qianli pressed the handle with great effort and shook it up and down rapidly. Veins on his temples bulged: "This thing is too strenuous." It doesn't look like a big machine, but it is long and thin. It is very strenuous to use. It is difficult to press the handle down, and even more difficult to lift it up.
But his teammates encouraged him, and he did not stop, shaking the pump repeatedly with all his strength. Finally, water came out of the pump!
Once the water was shaken up, it became unblocked and it became less difficult.
"Keep going!" Qiao Xuejun took the watering basin next to her and collected the water. "It's all dirty water now. We need to make the water clear."
Qiao Xuejun took turns collecting water in two basins, and she poured all the dirty water into the potato field.
The ten or so basins of water in the front were all similar, all yellow muddy water. Towards the back, the yellow color seemed slightly less thick and sticky. Although it was still yellow, it was no longer muddy.
After dozens of basins, the water began to become clear. There were some yellow mud impurities at the bottom of the basin, but they did not affect the color of the water.
The four were pleasantly surprised: “It really worked!”
The water is now completely usable. Although it smells of yellow mud, the yellow mud in the well water will become less and less after a long time of use, and the water will become clearer and clearer. Besides, Qiao Xuejun still has a lot of water purification tablets and a kettle.
Now if you need to use water to wash your hands and feet, you can use this water directly. If you want to wash vegetables or face, you can let it sit overnight and it will be clear the next day. If you want to drink water, you can make a filter, boil it and bottle it.
Both Qiao Xuejun and Kuang Qianli can make filters.
Wang Juanfeng said: "This water is really hard to come by. I have been waiting for two days to get it. I am reluctant to use it to take a bath."
They were all dirty and needed to be cleaned up.
Wang Juanfeng suddenly asked: "Where is our water discharged? If the used sewage is poured into the potato field, will it seep into the ground and become well water for us to use?"
