Surviving the famine: I made my fortune by helping others

She had been busy traveling these days, so she bought the water directly through the system mall.

Because the water in the system mall is sold cheaply, one point can buy about one ton of ordinary water.

Although it was called ordinary water, it was not comparable to any other water, so she spent her points to buy a ton of it and stored it in the space.

She had just casually passed on the water they used for cooking these days. Since she had water on hand, she didn't care much about the water shortage.

I didn't expect things to be so serious.

"The task system is out. Isn't it a system of helping others? Why don't you issue a task when someone in the team is short of water? Providing water to others, isn't that helping others?"

Baizai stared at the host blankly, not understanding why the host was angry.

Why didn't the host scold it this time when he was angry, but scolded the task system instead?

The task system has no intelligence, it can’t hear!

Ye Chuyi didn't care what Baizi thought. After she questioned, a crackling electronic sound came into her head.

Although the sound was very subtle, she still heard it because she was paying attention.

Seeing this, she couldn't help but sneer, what a coward.

"Why, have you done something shameful and are afraid to show up in public?"

Ye Chuyi lowered his voice with a hint of threat.

The crackling sound of electric current suddenly stopped.

"I know you heard it, don't pretend you didn't know. If you can't give me an explanation today, don't blame me for not doing any missions in the future."

[If the host fails to complete the task on time, he will be punished by the system. Please correct your attitude towards the task, actively complete the task, and do more good deeds.]

The mechanical sound of the system is still emotionless.

"Don't talk nonsense here. I don't care who you are. If you can't do the system work well, go back to where you came from. Don't waste my time here."

[The host has been detected to have violent tendencies. This behavior will be detrimental to the development of a harmonious society and will be punished with electrical charges. Please take this as a warning and do more good deeds. Helping others is everyone's responsibility.]

The mechanical sound of the system was still rigid, but Ye Chuyi did not feel any electric shock this time, and he couldn't help but feel more certain.

This broken task system must have done something behind her back.

[Host, are you okay?]

Baizai asked weakly. He felt that his host seemed to be possessed by evil spirits. Why would someone be so eager to be punished?

"You useless thing."

Ye Chuyi glared at it unhappily, and seeing that he could not get a response from the task system, he began to arrange the matters at hand.

"Second Aunt, tell everyone that those who don't have water can come to my place to get some, but the amount of water is limited, so don't hold out too much hope. If you don't really need it, don't come."

Although water is not a very precious thing to her, the necessary rules should still be followed. If other people don't care about saving water just because she has water, that would not be a good thing.

"Hey, I'll go get someone."

Aunt Du responded while calculating in her mind. Although she didn't know how much water there was, she still had to focus on the children and the elderly first.

After all, their bodies are weaker. If they fall on the road, it will be difficult for them to continue their journey.

When you cook in the evening, just make the meal a little finer so that others can drink more.

Aunt Du is very fast, and Ye Chuyi is not slow either.

Almost at the moment when everyone else gathered together, Ye Chuyi quietly put water into the big pot they usually used for cooking.

Although it was a bit strange to give water directly from the pot to others, it was better than her making it appear out of thin air.

Perhaps because of the friendship gained from fleeing together during these few days, the atmosphere among everyone was quite friendly.

Most of those who came to get water were women holding children, followed by some elderly people. There were almost no adult men and women.

Ye Chuyi didn't give out much. She would scoop out a spoonful from those who came over with water bags or bowls or other water containers.

Those who didn't bring any tools just drank on the spot using a wooden bowl.

Everyone's attitude was quite friendly, and most of them just wet their lips or took a few sips. There was hardly anyone who would just gulp down the food without caring about anything.

"Although we didn't store much water, we did store some during those days in Daqing Mountain, so the situation here is not that serious. But looking at other people passing by, it seems that the water shortage is quite serious. Should we think of some way to eliminate the water shortage problem?"

While helping to fetch water for people, Wang Chengde reported to Ye Chuyi the information they had collected.

The boys from the Zhao family and the Du family were smart. They had noticed the problem long before there was a water shortage in the team, and they had discussed some countermeasures early on.

At first, some people thought that they were making a big deal out of nothing. But when they saw that there was actually a child who almost fainted due to lack of water, they became very convinced of their situation.

Wang Chengde is one of them.

Although he did not disbelieve it at first, he did not expect the matter to be so serious.

"It's time to make some preparations, otherwise someone might come and grab the water."

Ye Chuyi looked at the refugees around him who were eyeing him eagerly, and spoke in a calm tone.

It was noon and everyone else was rushing on their way, but they were the only ones who stopped. This was already eye-catching enough, and now they suddenly gathered together, which naturally attracted the attention of others.

When the people in their team started drinking water, those who were watching them in the dark became restless.

In just a short while, a lot of people gathered around them.

Although the refugees were short of water, they did not act rashly because they had more people on their side.

"When did they show up?"

Wang Chengde looked up and saw the people surrounding their team, and he was stunned.

Aren’t the others just busy on their way?

Don’t they think that people who take a break during the journey are mentally ill?

Why did they suddenly stop and look around them?

"Don't just stand there like an idiot. Go tell the men in the team to be alert."

Ye Chuyi glared at Wang Chengde unhappily.

After she had scooped water for the last old lady in the queue, she put down the wooden bowl that had washed the spoon and looked at the people around her.

"There's no water left. Everyone should save it. We don't know when we can find water again."

"Hey."

"We're all awake now."

"Thank you, miss."

……

There were sporadic voices coming from the crowd, and Ye Chuyi calmly put away his things.

"Let me go! How could you snatch the water from the child? Someone come quickly, someone come quickly..."
