Chapter 203 Magic Emperor (42)

Everyone knows that enough water can solve the problem of food and clothing, but the question now is how to get this water of life?
There is no rain, the river is dry, the vegetation is withered, and even the morning dew is difficult to collect. I have never seen the nobles in the imperial capital who love the most rare treasures. ?

In today's world, not to mention ordinary people, even noble families can maintain their daily eating, drinking and washing, as well as extra watering of flowers, if they don't rely on the pool of running water fountains in the imperial capital city. The city will also become water-scarce now or soon.

In the evening, at a welcome banquet held by the people of Jindu Village for the new arrivals, with a crowd of people grabbing food around a big pot in the background, the village chief asked His Highness Ninth Prince Yi.Longstreet: "Your Highness, do you have a good idea about water?"

"Yes." His Royal Highness Nine firmly affirmed.

"Oh... oh?" The village head asked casually without hope, the purpose was just to dispel the enthusiasm of His Royal Highness to win over and support so many refugees, and to recognize the reality and not waste rations. In the end...he heard What's up?Is... Did you hear me wrong?

The village chief asked hesitantly: "Your Highness Ninth, do you...have a solution?"

"Yes!" His Royal Highness reaffirmed that he had a way to get water.

"Wh...what can I do?" The village chief gulped down the saliva in his mouth like water, and looked at the little Ninth Highness in front of him with fiery eyes.

"Before my Highness answers Your Excellency, please tell me, where did you get the water for cooking the food in your cauldron?" His Highness Ninth Prince asked without answering.

"This..." The village chief hesitated for a moment when he heard the words, as if he was considering whether to tell such a precious secret, and finally figured it out, leaning over and biting his ear, he said to His Highness Jiu: " Your Highness, please come with the officer!"

As a maid, I followed the two of them, twisting and turning, and came to an empty house. Isn't this... the empty house that leads to the tunnel with the iron barrels for storing corpses? !

With this doubt in mind, we followed the village chief all the way down the tunnel to the iron barrel where the body was stored. Then, we saw the village chief step forward and vigorously move the iron barrel that made people panic, revealing the iron barrel. The hole hidden below.

There was a hemp rope hanging at the entrance of the cave. The village chief let go of the iron bucket and stepped forward to pull up the rope. After waiting for a while, he saw the village chief pull out a small wet bucket. Water!

"Your Highness, please take a look!" The village head carefully placed the bucket on the ground, calling for His Highness Ninth Prince who had already stopped to come forward to watch.

His Highness Jiu and I looked at the water in the small bucket which was almost half full, it was very clear, and then looked into the hole, it was dark and steep, if I hadn’t become a blood clan, I would definitely not be able to see clearly what was inside, but now I prefer the dark, but I can see the cave as clearly as I can in the daytime or under the light.

The hole should be a drinking well dug by the villagers. Now it is clear that the water used for eating and drinking by the people in Jindu Village is precious groundwater.

After figuring out something that I had never understood, I suddenly admired the forty-year-old village head in front of me. During the severe drought, he shouldered the burden of raising a village, picked up corpses for food, and protected the precious water source of the village...

What a good parent of the people!
"Then...His Highness, can you tell the officer now, is there any way to make the sky rain, or to find as much water as the lake to irrigate the crops?"
