The onlookers were also eager to get started. They said, "What the boss orders must have a reason. See? It's done."
"Boss, can we go dig now?"
They can't wait any longer.
Looking at the newly filled well, Yin Li respectfully bowed to Luo Xi: "Rest assured, Chief, I will immediately lead the people to get things done."
He really overthought things this time.
"Brother Wei, how about you take charge of the villages and towns south of the manor, and I'll take charge of the villages and towns north of the manor?"
As long as it benefits the people, Wei Qing had no objections: "Okay."
The two reached an agreement and then walked over to the people, waving: "You all come with us."
The people first turned to look at Luo Xi, and when they saw her nod, they followed her in a flurry.
Looking at the vibrant people of Chaoyang Manor, Si Jia felt a complex mix of emotions.
Such scenes are now rarely seen in the Tianqi Dynasty.
Whether in the imperial court or in the countryside!
"Boss, would you like to take a rest?" He had already noticed that Luo Xi's complexion was much worse than before.
Regardless of how she knew water would come out below, she must have paid a considerable price.
Loxi raised her hand and pressed her throbbing temple: "That's exactly what I was thinking."
"By the way, Prefect Si, the water issue has been resolved. I'll soak the seeds for you in a few days. Why don't you send someone to inform the people in your prefecture to prepare the land first?"
"When the seeds arrive, it's best to plant them immediately so they grow the best."
Si Jia cupped his hands in thanks: "Thank you for your trouble, Boss. I will make the arrangements immediately."
Luo Xi nodded to him, and then, urged by Liu Xiaoyu with concern, went back to her courtyard to rest and recover her powers.
Within half a day, the fact that Luo Xi had dug a well and found water was known to almost everyone in Tongning County, and some people initially made sarcastic remarks.
"Maybe it's just luck. Look, wells in other places might not yield water."
Then everyone pricked up their ears, waiting to see what would happen, especially Zhu Da's spies, who were basically always lurking nearby.
However, they were destined to be disappointed. Every well that Rosie specified to be dug was bubbling up with water, which was clear, sweet, and quite good.
Immediately, Tongning County, which had been suffering from water shortage for a long time, was revitalized.
When Zhu Da found out, he secretly followed suit and sent many people to dig pits everywhere. As a result, not only did none of them yield water, but the already impoverished people under his rule became even more resentful.
"Butler, tell me, is my luck really worse than that of a mere bandit like Luo Xi?"
housekeeper:"……"
That's not a good answer.
"Sir, she's just been lucky lately; it might not be the same next time," he said against his will.
Zhu Da, however, wholeheartedly agreed: "That makes sense. Pass the word down and let the people over there try to find opportunities to cause trouble."
What good is good luck if others interfere? Even the best luck can turn bad in an instant.
How could Lolo and the others possibly give them a chance? She had already arranged for people nearby to deal with those who caused trouble one by one.
In just a few days, Zhu Da lost many men. He was so angry that he smashed several teacups. But before he could calm down, Du Hong sent someone to scold him.
Zhu Da: "..."
He'd really had enough.
Baihu told Luo Xi about Zhu Da's affair as a joke.
“Boss, you don’t know, that idiot, he smashed his teacup in anger, and then cursed in heartache afterwards. He’s a complete madman. Now everyone in his mansion is like a mouse seeing a cat when they see him.”
The crazier he is, the more at ease Rosie feels: "Let him be, as long as he doesn't get in our way, the more abnormal his mind is, the better."
"By the way, have you made any progress on the person I asked you to find?" She was naturally referring to Chu Zhe.
White Tiger: "..."
I didn't dare look at Luo Xi for a second.
There was nothing else that Luo Xi didn't understand. She really found it incredible; it was only a matter of moments, how could it all disappear so suddenly?
Could it really be...?
No, no, no, absolutely not.
He survived for so long in an apocalyptic environment, there's no reason for him to die here.
"Boss, I'll add more immediately..."
But before he could finish speaking, a man in black suddenly emerged from the darkness: "Lady Luo, Protector Bai, there's news about that young man surnamed Chu."
"Really?" Rosie sat up straight immediately. "How is he?"
The man in black had a blank expression, but something about him was hard to describe: "He was rescued by people from General Yue Zheng's mansion and has been unconscious ever since. He only woke up two days ago."
"That day, he was being pushed out for a walk, and it happened to be seen by a subordinate who was working undercover in the general's mansion, which led to the report."
White Tiger: "..."
I don't know what to say anymore.
He's been lying unconscious in bed, no one can find him. He's been getting beaten up by the landlord every day recently, isn't that a huge injustice?
"Is it the general's mansion in the capital or..."
The man in black looked even stranger: "It's the residence of General Yue Zheng, who is stationed at the border."
The white tiger is about to become withdrawn.
The General Yuezheng's mansion on the border is only ten days' journey from here, in the neighboring Fengchuan County.
After hearing the explanation, Luo Xi remained silent for a long time.
It was right under their noses, yet they searched the whole world for it. It's really...
Luo Xi quickly picked up a piece of paper and wrote a letter to Chu Zhe in English, telling him about their current situation and her Chaoyang Villa.
Needless to say, after so many years together, Chu Zhe knows what to do.
“Send it to him,” Rose said.
"Yes." The man in black took it and disappeared in a flash.
