"Okay, sis, please go and explain things to Fang Shizhong for me."
"Okay! But Little Fish, since Amu has already gone to the Northern Frontier, how about we donate some more alfalfa there?"
"Okay, I had the same idea!"
I'll mention this to Fang Shizhong when I go out to see him in a few days.
Chi Qiao has a high level of initiative, while Fang Shizhong's is even higher.
As soon as he received the news from Chi Qiao, he immediately ordered his attendants to recruit people to do the work.
Of course, the excavation site had been surveyed by someone beforehand.
There is a water source underground, but the exact amount is unclear.
The commotion here was quite significant, so much so that families with larger members, such as those in Chijia'ao and Xiechi'ao, would send one or two people to help.
Moreover, among those queuing for water, some who weren't short of water at home would lend a hand.
Chi Yu gradually learned about these events from her older brother and sister-in-law.
She "came back" after resting for three days.
Upon her return, she went out to find Fang Shizhong.
Fang Shizhong had been busy at the water source these past few days, but he was keeping track of the time.
Therefore, when the fish in the pond emerged from the wooden wall, what they saw was him guarding the entrance.
"Young Lady Chi!"
Chi Yu nodded and said in a low voice, "Sir, I wonder if my sister-in-law mentioned my request to you a few days ago?"
Fang Shizhong replied in a low voice, "Yes!"
As you wished, Miss Chi, I ordered people to dig a pond while simultaneously instructing those over there to place the water-collecting containers in the designated spot.
Before dawn today, I had people open all the lids on the jars and wooden barrels.
"Yes, have someone dig the pit bigger and deeper, preferably as big as the lake at Tiger Head Cliff."
Dig up a couple more, then find a few more people who can keep their mouths shut to guard them.
"Okay, don't worry, I will!"
"Furthermore, since Amu has already gone to the Northern Frontier, I will not go there."
However, I have a batch of dried alfalfa that I want to donate to northern Xinjiang.
Upon hearing the word "alfalfa," Fang Shizhong became somewhat excited.
Since it has already rained in northern Xinjiang, there is no need to worry about water for the time being.
With water readily available, the immediate concern is food.
The men are alright, but at this critical moment, the warhorses are the most important.
"Thank you for your kindness, Miss Chi!"
Chi Yu remembered what her sister had said: that the people from Wuning Prefecture and Fuhanyang Prefecture would transport the water away.
That will be another great act of merit.
In this way, perhaps more places can get some rain.
Her sister asked her to find a way to talk to Fang Shizhong and suggest that they bring rain to the various drought-stricken areas.
However, what she overdrawn was her qualification as an immortal.
Once the people have safely weathered this disaster, she will return to being an ordinary person.
In this way, those in power will be grateful and will no longer be so wary.
They also told her to act convincingly when the time came.
Every time it rains, the body will be weak for a few more days.
Yes, it gets worse each time.
It must be something Fang Shizhong saw with his own eyes!
Thinking of these instructions, the fish in the pond showed compassion and said:
"My lord, the ancestors of the Chi clan are connected to me by fate."
I originally intended to only protect the people on this side.
Little did I expect that I would be indirectly involved with you, sir.
I can help you, Da Chu, through this calamity.
She had just finished speaking when she saw Fang Shizhong about to thank her again, so she quickly reached out to stop him and continued:
"As an immortal, my presence in the mortal realm is subject to limitations."
