Traveling through ancient times to survive

Zhao Deyan first set up the filter barrel, placed a clean wooden basin underneath, and then poured the sewage into the filter barrel.

Water began to drip from the bottom of the bucket, and the three people who had never seen it before looked at it with wide eyes and curiosity.

After the filtration was completed, Zhao Deyan pulled out the wooden basin with a smug expression on his face.

"Mom, please take a good look at it. Is it clean? I think it's okay to drink it directly."

Zhao Qing silently reminded: "Brother, but your hands have just been stirred in the water. It's better not to drink the water you wash your hands with."

Zhao Deyan paused as he was about to drink some water: "..."

At noon, Zhao Chengchuan felt uncomfortable in his stomach. Thinking of the pain of finding a toilet in the past two days, Zhao Chengchuan couldn't stand it anymore and had to make a suggestion to the village chief.

After solving the problem of the cycle of grains, he took Zhao Deyan to find the village chief. The village chief, with a worried look on his face, barely cheered himself up and greeted the two of them.

"Chengchuan, you came at the right time. I was looking for you."

"What's the matter, village chief?"

"The masks Qing mentioned are easy to make, but I don't know if they will work without the herbs. And the water source. The flood has already come. Where can we find clean water? And should we tell you about the epidemic now? If we don't tell you, it will be over if people don't take it seriously and get infected. If we tell you, I'm afraid people will be scared and get sick when they are fine. Isn't this self-defeating? Oh, I'm really worried!"

The more the village chief spoke, the worse his mood became. Others thought that he was a very powerful village chief, but they didn't know that he was so worried that he couldn't sleep at night. After this disaster was over, he would definitely give up his position as village chief. If he continued to work so hard, he would shorten his life by several years.

"Uncle village chief, it's okay if you don't put herbs in the mask. As for the water, isn't this a coincidence? I came here to solve the water problem." Zhao Chengchuan turned around and told his son, "Deyan, open your eyes to the uncle village chief."

"Okay, Dad, Grandpa Village Chief, please watch it."

Zhao Deyan demonstrated the steps of filtering dirty water in front of the village chief again. The village chief was very excited when he saw the clean water filtered out.

"Great! That's great. With this treasure, we don't have to drink dirty water anymore."

Zhao Deyan explained the steps of making the filter barrel to the village chief in detail again.

"Village Chief, this is called a filter bucket. All you need to do is... and then... that's it."

"Is it really that simple?" The village chief became even more excited when he heard that the materials needed for production were so cheap and every household could afford it.

"How dare I tease you about this!"

"Good boy! You will be remembered for your great achievement!" The village chief patted Zhao Deyan on the shoulder, overjoyed.

"Chengchuan, you really have a good way of educating your children. Not only is Qing a very special girl, but Deyan is also a very talented person. Everyone in your family is extraordinary. You really gave me a big surprise."

The village chief was shocked and envious. How come other people's children are so promising? Why can't his family produce such a smart descendant? Does Chengchuan have a special education method? How about giving a few grandchildren to Chengchuan to try?

The village chief was seriously daydreaming, and Zhao Deyan, who was praised, was not thick-skinned enough and his face turned red.

"Grandpa Village Chief, you are too kind. I saw others use it this way when I was working in the capital city. It was not my idea."

"No need to explain, I understand."

Explanation is a cover-up. The village chief is already convinced that Zhao Chengchuan's whole family are all talented. He has an expression that says, "I've seen through you. You don't have to make excuses. You can't fool me anyway."

No, what do you know? Zhao Deyan was anxious. What if the village chief misunderstood that this was his invention? His sister did not tell him to take the invention for himself.

"Grandpa Village Chief, I really didn't invent this, please don't misunderstand me."

"I understand."

The village chief had an unfathomable expression. He just didn't want to be in the spotlight and wanted to keep a low profile. I would definitely cooperate with him.

The Chengchuan family obviously all have amazing talents, but they choose to stay silent and dormant. Is this their way of success?

The village chief began to think divergently again, and Zhao Deyan felt relieved. Although he felt that something was wrong, the village chief's understanding seemed to be different from what he thought, but looking at the village chief's serious expression, he should be overthinking.

"Uncle village chief, can we build a toilet first? Our entire village lives here, and we don't know how long we'll be here. We can't just go anywhere all the time." Zhao Chengchuan's eyes lit up as he spoke. "Besides, isn't cleanliness a must for epidemic prevention? This can't wait."

"Chengchuan, you are really thoughtful. We really need to build a toilet."

"And the quarantine area that Qingya mentioned, let's build it together. If someone gets sick, let him live alone in the quarantine area until he recovers. Let's build a few more compartments."

"The quarantine area must be built. How big should it be? Where is the best place to build it? Will it be too late?" The village chief had many questions.

Zhao Deyan thought of a good place and couldn't wait to suggest it.

"Grandpa Village Chief, let's build it where we cut down trees these days. It just so happens that there is a large area free these days. It will be convenient to build there because it is close to where we cut down trees. It can also save time. It is also not too far from where we live now. It is convenient for us to take care of it without affecting the safety here."

The village chief nodded: "It's really nice there."

Zhao Chengchuan added: "Uncle village chief, in order to build it as quickly as possible, the compartment does not need to be very spacious, just leave a space as big as a bed, the quarantined people will sleep there, and food can be delivered by their families. A toilet must also be built in the quarantine area."

"Okay, let's do it." The village chief made the decision.

Zhao Chengchuan looked at the tired village chief and tried to persuade him, saying that everyone was counting on the village chief as a leader and he must not fall down first.

"Uncle village chief, don't worry, take good care of yourself, relax, eat when you need to and sleep when you need to."

"How can I sleep well?" The village chief also knew Zhao Chengchuan's good intentions, but he was really worried.

Zhao Chengchuan deliberately showed an angry look on his face: "Are you worried about the epidemic? That girl is exaggerating something that is obviously not happening. If you fall ill first, I will teach her a lesson!"

"Nonsense, Qing girl is just kind-hearted. She said it so that I can be prepared. How can you blame her?"

The village chief was anxious. How could he wrongly accuse the child? Qing girl was obviously kind-hearted, but not only did she not get any reward, but she was also scolded by her own father. This made the girl feel cold. What if she is unwilling to help in the future?

"That's right, sister is not telling you this to scare you. Besides, there is no epidemic yet. It's just that there is a possibility that if you get scared and fall ill, you will be the first to live in the quarantine area." Zhao Deyan joked with his father.

"Who is scared? I am just worried!" the village chief said stubbornly.

Zhao Chengchuan continued: "You look so sad, it's really scary. If you make everyone feel insecure, wouldn't that be putting the cart before the horse?"
