"You all drank the tonic potion made secretly by my master, and your bodies are not comparable to those of ordinary people."
Chen Yong took the opportunity to exaggerate the potion's effectiveness, "As long as you have the right technique, you will definitely get twice the result with half the effort if you practice it."
Old Madam Shen's eyes lit up, and she said that the summer-heat-relieving potion that Old Seventh gave them was extraordinary.
Sure enough, Old Seven let the cat out of the bag.
It turned out that they drank a tonic potion, so they were tireless along the way.
"Okay, Mom will tell your sisters-in-law to set aside two hours every day to practice martial arts starting tomorrow."
The rest of the time I still have to deal with various chores.
After finishing the work, everyone went back to the yard to think about it. They could practice as long as they wanted, and there was no force.
After all, the daughters-in-law have different personalities, some like to practice martial arts and some don't.
But even if you don't like martial arts, you must practice martial arts for two hours every day and not hold back Lao Qi.
"Okay." Chen Yong finished the last bit of the meat soup, put down the bowl and wiped his mouth.
"Mother, go back and rest early. I will find a maid who knows martial arts tomorrow and go to your yard early the day after tomorrow."
"Mom, tell the sisters-in-law tomorrow and let them rest early tomorrow night. They will be more energetic and have more energy to practice martial arts."
"Okay, if you can't find a maid who knows martial arts, you can find a martial artist."
Old Madam Shen stood up to pack up the food boxes and said with a smile,
"With seven of us, mothers-in-law and daughters-in-law, studying together, we don't need to worry so much about the separation of genders."
They didn't pay attention to these things along the way, but felt very comfortable.
Now the whole city is full of people busy working, and she and her daughters-in-law often see shirtless men when they go out.
I was a little embarrassed at first, but now I'm used to it.
Especially the area where the city wall was being built, there was a lot of shirtless people.
The old woman and the young wife who cook have long been accustomed to it and there is nothing to be embarrassed about.
As long as the viewers don't have bad intentions, everything is normal.
It's a hot day, and it's uncomfortable to have wet clothes hanging on your body.
Thinking of this, Madam Shen paused.
"By the way, Old Seven, there's a water shortage in the city. The water from the well is a bit muddy, and it's not enough for cooking."
It has been almost ten days since the last heavy rainfall in Chenyong City.
The people first used water from the canal, and only used their own water after the canal water was used up.
Nowadays, there is not much water available to every household.
"Okay." Shen Yong nodded, "I understand, don't worry, mother, it will be resolved tomorrow morning."
He has been so busy lately that he even forgot to get water.
"Then you should rest early."
After Madam Shen left, Shen Yong immediately went to the deep well next to the prefectural government office.
It’s exhausting and a waste of time to spread rain all over the city, so just creating a gimmick once is enough.
Now that everyone in the city has submitted to him, there is no need to make such a big fuss.
Chen Yong opened the takeaway mall and found the previous purchase record.
How many tons of water would be needed to cover all the rivers and ditches in the city at 2.5 yuan per ton?
Chen Yong frowned, thought for a while, and decided to buy 5 million tons of water and put it into the well to see if it works.
The water was so cheap that he didn't feel any pain in buying it.
Oh, no, it seems like he no longer feels bad about spending money.
The trouble with having too much money is that you become so sensitive to numbers.
Shen Yong looked towards the well.
This well leads to most of the rivers and ditches in the city. He first released 3 million tons of water, and then he released the remaining 2 million tons of water into other wells in the city.
【Ding, consumption RMB, account balance RMB...】
After the payment was successful, a pipe as thick as the wellhead was extended into the well.
"Clatter, clatter"
Clear water flows into the well continuously through the thick water pipe...
......
"Hiss~"
Zong Wei's ears moved twice, he frowned and took a breath.
"Old He, do you hear the sound of running water?!"
He Feng raised his hand and slapped the mosquito on his arm to death.
"Are you crazy from thirst and hallucinating?"
He Feng took off the water bag on his waist and stuffed it into Zong Wei's hand.
"Here, some hot rice soup. Drink a couple of sips to quench your thirst."
"The rice soup has been getting thicker and thicker lately. It doesn't quench my thirst at all."
He Feng let out a long sigh.
In the past, he would be so happy to drink such thick and fragrant rice soup that he would even eat two bowls with pickled cabbage.
But now, the meat buns, vegetable buns and steamed buns they eat are already very dry, and the rice soup they drink is getting thicker and thicker. They are really thirsty and uncomfortable.
It has been so long since the last rainfall from King Qianhuang, and the city is once again facing water shortage.
With the sun shining so brightly every day, they were covered in sweat and their throats were so thirsty that they were almost smoking.
"No." Zong Wei pushed away the water bag handed to him by He Feng, stood up and walked towards the canal.
“There really is the sound of flowing water.”
He Feng was stunned for a moment, then stood up and followed Zong Wei, muttering,
“Why didn’t I…Oh my god…”
He Feng's eyes lit up and he caught up with Zong Wei in three or two steps.
He also heard the sound of flowing water, which sounded quite rough.
At this time, the soldiers guarding the city wall, who were close to the canal, all saw the water rushing out of the canal towards the city.
"Water, how can there be so much water!?"
"Oh my god, the water is so clear, I want to jump in and take a bath."
"Where does all this water come from?"
"Where else could it have come from? It must be the water that King Qianhuang asked the gods to release. King Qianhuang knew that the city was short of water again, so he prayed to the gods overnight."
"King Qianhuang is mighty and mighty. He lives as long as the heavens. May he live forever!"
“…”
When He Feng and Zong Wei reached the edge of the canal, the soldiers surrounding the canal had already knelt down.
"Oh my god~"
He Feng widened his eyes and sighed.
This is like releasing a river.
Zong Wei looked along the canal towards the city, then turned his head to look towards Bailong City.
"Hurry, everyone grab your shovels and follow me."
This canal leads all the way to Bailong City, and he can't let the water flow into Bailong City for nothing.
Qianhuang City is suffering from a severe water shortage, and this precious water cannot be wasted.
The entire canal was filled with water, and the cracked canal had to swallow a lot of water.
They didn't think of this last time, and the water in the canal dried up in just two days.
He Feng looked at Zong Wei in confusion, but when he saw him running towards Bailong City with a shovel in his hand, he immediately reacted.
"You guys follow Lao Zong, and the rest of you follow me."
He Feng ran to the canal on the other side of the official road with a shovel.
Who knows when the water will be available again? Of course, we cannot let the water flow away in vain.
The soldiers who were kneeling by the canal got up and chased after them with shovels.
The water has been getting less and less these past two days, and they are almost dying of thirst.
Now that we finally have water, we can’t let it flow away.
