Chapter 252 Grabbing water
The old man was collecting money and helping his son as he poured water.
The man poured water from the measuring cup into the containers of the people.
When Lin Ke was free, he took the time to release his mental power and watch for a while, and found that the man was very principled in selling water.
Each person didn't sell much, just enough water to support their shops, and they would also recommend their shops to the refugees from time to time.
Lin Ke thought this person was really interesting.
But at this moment, several burly men were seen pushing away the refugees queued in front and walking to the front of the cart.
One of them said gruffly, "Hey, I heard you're selling water?"
The aura of these people made the refugees dare not speak out or get close.
At this time, there was a large space around them.
The man and his father saw these people who were obviously up to no good and knew that they were not to be trifled with.
The man couldn't help but think that if things went wrong today might end here.
He swallowed nervously, then secretly took out the machete from the cart and held it in his hand.
He quickly put on a smile and said, "Yes, sir, I bought some water from a store a few dozen miles ahead and brought it over to moisten the throats of the people who can't make it to the front.
Four cents for a bowl of water. How many bowls would you like?"
The leader frowned, and the people behind him immediately said, "What kind of broken water is this? It's so expensive. Can't you see that the grandfathers are thirsty? If you know what's good for you, quickly pour a bowl of water for each of them to taste."
The man said with a bitter face: "Gentlemen, this is a small business, I really can't afford it."
The burly man from before saw that his brother had spoken, but this weak man was still whining, and he couldn't help but get angry.
"Hmm? What? You won't give it to me?"
The lackey behind him also said, "You don't listen to me when I talk to you nicely, right? Hurry up and pour some water for our boss, or don't blame us for being rude."
The man's face showed an expression of worry that was hard to conceal, and next to him, his father was shaking with fear.
Seeing that the man didn't move, the men rushed forward to snatch the man's cart.
"Humph, I told you to drink a toast but you didn't want to drink a forfeit. Now I've changed my mind. Leave all your water and carts to me."
The refugees around cried out in surprise, but they were frightened by the aura of the people before them, and no one dared to step forward.
Moreover, they are now extremely dehydrated, and everyone is weak and can't do anything even if they go forward.
Many people couldn't help but start crying, as they saw the life-saving water was right in front of them.
Now it is about to be snatched away by this evil man.
If it is taken away by evil people, will they still be able to drink a sip of water?
The man knew the situation was very dangerous, but he still guarded the water on the cart tightly.
The old man didn't know where the courage came from, and he lay down on the water on the cart.
Trying to protect this life-saving water with your body.
Those people pulled for a few times, but when they saw that they couldn't move it, they became a little annoyed.
He took out the wooden stick in his hand and planned to teach the father and son a lesson.
At this time, the refugees watching nearby could not bear it any longer.
How could they just stand by and watch as the father and son fought against the evildoers for their life-saving water?
If the water gets into the hands of these people, there will definitely be no hope for them.
If these people had the strength to make it to the store, they would not choose to buy water here.
Those who buy water at this time are those who are almost dying of thirst.
They thought that if there was no water, they would die anyway, so they might as well risk it all to help the father and son keep the life-saving water.
So the refugees also gathered around.
A battle to defend water is about to break out.
When Lin Ke saw this, he was very satisfied with the performance of the man and the people.
If these people just watched coldly as the father and son were robbed, then she would have to carefully consider the standards for saving people.
Fortunately, although these people hesitated at first, they still stood up later.
This kind of humanity is worth her saving.
So she moved her mental power slightly, and those big men were suddenly thrown out of the crowd by a force.
It flew for several meters before falling from the air.
The refugees around were all looking at it in bewilderment.
Only the man and his father knelt down and kowtowed excitedly.
"Thank you, gods, for your blessings. Thank you, gods, for your blessings."
The man thought that he had applied to the little god for permission to sell water, and the little god was indeed blessing them.
The other refugees didn't understand what was going on, but when they heard the two people talking about gods, they knelt down as well.
While kowtowing, he chanted: "God bless you, God bless you."
Those refugees who had some thoughts before have now given up their thoughts.
The few people who fell from the sky were already seriously injured and had no energy to cause trouble for the man.
And the force that threw them out just now was indeed strange.
A few of them slowed down, supported each other and ran away secretly.
Lin Ke marked the man, and from then on he was under her protection.
As long as someone wants to cause trouble, Lin Ke will naturally take action.
And from this man, Lin Ke felt that this was also a solution.
They can develop some downlines while completing their own tasks.
Let these people carry water to farther places to rescue those people who cannot reach the shops.
So when she was distributing supplies to other people, she shared this idea with everyone.
I didn't expect that there were men like this in other places.
It's just that they don't have plastic buckets.
So Lin Ke placed two buckets full of water in each person's space.
In this way, if someone wants to transport water over a long distance, it would be more convenient to use this bucket.
It was soon time for dinner. After Lin Ke put some food in everyone's subspace, he, Old Lady Jiang, and Lin Chenyu took turns eating.
Inadvertently, he glanced at the grandparents, grandchildren, mother and son next to him.
They were eating there too.
The woman bought two meat buns and a steamed bun, and gave the buns to her mother-in-law and son, while she herself ate the steamed bun with water.
Fortunately, the steamed buns are all made in space, and they are soft and fluffy when eaten, just like they are freshly made.
The mother-in-law didn't want to let her daughter-in-law eat just the steamed buns, so she broke off a piece of steamed bun from her daughter-in-law and stuffed it into her mouth.
While chewing, he said, "The steamed buns are delicious. I don't like them. You can eat the rest."
Having said that, he put half of the bun that he had already broken into pieces into his daughter-in-law's hands without further ado.
The little boy saw his grandmother share the buns with his mother.
He looked at the fragrant bun in his hand with some reluctance, then broke off a small half and gave it to his mother.
Then he said in a baby voice: "Mom, the buns are delicious, eat some buns."
The woman looked at her mother-in-law with emotion, then reached out and touched her son's little hair, and said with a smile: "Hey, okay, eat it, mother."
"Mom, you can eat too. Don't worry. His father gave me a lot of money. There are plenty of buns."
