Lu Yuan's words served as a direct reminder to them.
However, some people raised different opinions.
Zhou Ke: No way, there can be groundwater underground? If there were groundwater underground, wouldn't everyone in the city have started fighting?
Wang Chen: Yes, how is that possible? With so much sand, it would have absorbed all the water long ago! Let's think of a solution!
Lin Cheng: If you ask me, we might as well just send people to the beach to fetch water! The water there is quite good! With some purification and desalination, we can have a continuous supply! Anyone want to join us?
Then the people below seemed to completely disregard Lu Yuan's suggestion.
However, Lu Yuan ignored it after sending that message.
Because if they wanted to live, they would definitely accept it themselves; even if no one wanted to, Lu Yuan wouldn't say a word more.
He would not give these people another drop of water; he had already done more than enough.
As for the others, Lu Yuan felt he had no obligation or responsibility to remind them. Besides, Lu Yuan didn't even know if there was water underground.
However, someone still sent Lu Yuan a private message.
Chen Bin: Brother, are you serious? Is there really groundwater?
Lu Yuan: I don't know.
Chen Bin: Brother, I'm telling the truth, because we're out of water now, and we can't waste any more time.
Lu Yuan: What does this have to do with me?
Chen Bin stared at the contents of his phone for a moment, then a look of displeasure appeared on his face.
"Stop pretending! Honestly! If you don't want to talk, then don't! It's like someone's begging you!"
After saying that, Chen Bin put his phone away.
His first wife, standing to the side, looked at him and asked, "What should we do? You should come up with an idea!"
The concubines urged, "Yes! We don't even have water to bathe! We're starting to stink!"
"Exactly! I stink! We need to think of something!"
Chen Bin was already annoyed, and now seeing his women causing him trouble, he angrily cursed, "Are you all bored? Go back to your rooms and clean up!"
The women rolled their eyes in dissatisfaction and went back to their rooms to pack their things.
After sitting there in deep thought for a long time, Chen Bin decided to go and ask someone for advice.
Finally, Chen Bin found a few people and decided to go to the inner city together to see if they could resolve the water issue.
They were so thirsty; if this dragged on any longer, none of them would make it through.
After they had discussed it, they led their men into the city.
After a busy day, they brought back people, tools, and the remaining items from their home.
Lu Yuan and his family are still figuring out what to eat for dinner.
Their food is still very monotonous, but fortunately, Lu Yuan has many biological embryos and seeds in the dimensional space.
He could cultivate these things into living organisms if he wanted to.
However, Lu Yuan cannot take out these things now, because their feed is simply not enough to feed so many creatures.
Therefore, the thing Lu Yuan is most looking forward to right now is to get the land deal sorted out as soon as possible.
Suddenly, he saw some figures appear in the dim light outside the window.
These people are taking measurements with various objects in their hands.
Lu Yuan then took out his phone and saw that they had already found geological experts and were now looking for water.
Shaking his head helplessly, Lu Yuan drew the curtains and stopped looking.
Two days later, good news came from the group.
Water has been discovered in the city's first super-deep well, and it is now being sold in the city center.
This news immediately gave everyone in the group who were short of water a great deal of confidence.
Chen Bin was overjoyed. Fortunately, they found geological experts and equipment in time, otherwise they would not have been able to seize this opportunity.
Although a well was found inside the city, the daily water output was still very limited.
Moreover, water is very expensive, with a daily limit of a few hundred milliliters per person. If you want more, you need to spend more money.
This has significantly increased the business of the black market in the city.
The black market operators kept finding their informants at the census center, and in just a few days, they managed to create a resident population of nearly 100,000 people.
However, the good news lasted less than a few days before the census center staff were all purged.
It is clear how tough the military's stance is on this matter.
The family members all looked saddened when they received the news.
"It seems like we've gone back to the first year of the apocalypse! It was just like that back then!"
"Yes! I remember when we were short of water, the army would drive over and deliver water, counting everyone's water supply!"
"However, this time it seems the military has learned from previous experience, and the crackdown seems to be more intense than before. Anyone caught falsely claiming property is basically expelled from the camp!"
"Wow, that's incredible! Being expelled is practically a death sentence! In this weather, a person could die in a day!"
"Trust me! It'll be gone in half a day! The dryness of the sandstorm is like a vampire; it blows over and sucks all the moisture off your body!"
"I hope our neighbors can find a water bar soon so we can live in peace for a while. Otherwise, I'm always worried they'll try to harm us!"
"You can argue with that. These people are just too dangerous. I don't want to be neighbors with anyone anymore. Who knows if they'll suddenly discover your secret one day and then ambush you!"
As they chatted, they were both worried about the people outside and concerned that they might take risks, which made them quite conflicted.
As a result, at this moment, Lu Yuan suddenly saw a group of people outside running away in a distant direction like a tidal wave.
Then I saw that the ground in the distance had suddenly turned completely black.
"Huh? What's going on?"
As Lu Yuan spoke, he took out his binoculars.
When I saw what was happening in the distance, I was immediately stunned.
They actually dug up a spring, and the water was gushing out quite powerfully.
Suddenly, their shouts could be heard from a great distance.
Then even more people rushed towards that place.
Seeing this scene, Lu Yuan had a vague sense of foreboding.
Since the place where they discovered the spring wasn't far from them, if they occupied that place, they might also be affected.
"Damn it! How could it be found in that place!"
Everyone was curious and turned to look at Lu Yuan.
"What's wrong? What are you muttering about?"
Lu Yuan pointed outside: "They dug out a spring!"
"What?"
Everyone was stunned.
