Chapter 285 Helping in times of need

"Then, what if we are fed?" A timid and honest person asked in a low voice, "After all, isn't it said that our food is all obtained by the Prime Minister's wife in a deal with the gods? They help the prime minister to farm, so it is normal to give them enough to eat."

"You are stupid, what are you doing? If we are given food and water, isn't it just farming? Except for lazy people, who hasn't farmed before? Who doesn't know how to farm?"

When Lin Jin heard that the number of people who went to help farm the next day had quadrupled, he was not too surprised. He just asked them to prepare meals and water like he did yesterday. But the same thing applies: don't be lazy. As long as you are not lazy, you can support more people.

Because people have spontaneously started to help with farming in the past two days, Lin Jin's pressure has been relieved a little. Although the land she grows can be exchanged for ten times more grain than others, the physical strength still reduces her work efficiency.

She spent more time on the deep water well, and even asked Liu Zhengqing to lead people to observe the geology and look for places where groundwater might be found.

After ten thousand kilograms of grain were divided into several portions, only a few thousand kilograms were left in the city. With thousands of people in the city, the food was eaten up in a few days. Fortunately, these people helped with farming. Lin Jin had made up for the gap of ten acres of land and started to buy grain on credit again.

The officials of Taiyuan Prefecture looked at the more than 10,000 kilograms of grain that Lin Jin once again took out with admiration in their eyes. No one doubted Lin Jin's decision during this period anymore.

The Prime Minister's wife was either the reincarnation of a goddess or was instructed by the gods. What else could they doubt? After all, it was Lin Jin who saved Taiyuan Prefecture during this period.

Lin Jin knew that more and more people would help with farming in the future, so she was not so anxious about farming. Now she was trying to find as much water as possible.

Liu Zhengqing did lead his men to find several places where there might be water underground, but only two of them were suitable for digging wells.

"Even if we dig a well, there may not be water." Liu Zhengqing was a little worried. After all, if they were sure there was water underneath, the well would have been dug by now no matter how deep it was. The reason they didn't dig it was because they didn't know either. They could only make possible and rough inferences based on past experience.

Lin Jin supported her chin: "System, can you help check it?"

[Host, this is not the function of the farming system. You are making things difficult for me.] The system was helpless. It even turned a blind eye to Lin Jin's substitution of water for other purposes. Anyway, as long as Lin Jin planted the land, it would be fine.

What's wrong with using a lot of water? Its host is just a little girl, so it's normal for her to have no experience.

"Okay." Lin Jin had a headache and could only continue to study the useful knowledge in the books, but it was indeed a bit difficult to rely entirely on experience without any instruments.

Lin Jin was worried for a few days but couldn't find a solution. He decided to give it a try, just in case he found underground water.

Just as Lin Jin and Liu Zhengqing were discussing how to dig a deep well to ensure the safety of the workers digging it, a guard hurried in.

"Why are you in such a hurry?" Liu Zhengqing said with a gloomy face.

"My lord, my lady, it's water! It's water! There's water, and there's a lot of food! It's right over at the martial arts arena!" The guard's face was filled with ecstasy. He really saw hope now. "God has opened his eyes!"

The guard thought that Lin Jin had exchanged the food and water for them, and wiped his eyes with his arm: "Thank you, Madam, for saving our Taiyuan Prefecture. Madam, you are so kind, and Taiyuan Prefecture will never forget it."

Lin Jin didn't understand. She had just exchanged food with the system two days ago, and the food had not been used up yet, so she had not exchanged it again.

She went to the martial arts arena, which was filled with food and water, and even vegetables, meat and eggs. The prosecutor was counting the food and water, and everyone had a happy smile on their face.

Lin Jin looked at the huge water tanks and knew that they were sent by Lin Lin. Although she didn't know how the other party came and went without a trace and took out all the supplies silently, it could only be her.

"Is it Lin Lin?" Liu Zhengqing knew from seeing her like this that these were not taken out by the system on her body.

"Yeah." Lin Jin suddenly grasped Liu Zhengqing's arm with some weakness and smiled, "In fact, I can't hold on any longer. If I can't find groundwater, I really don't know what to do."

She was extremely glad that Lin Lin came.

"Madam, there is an oracle!" Someone found the letter left by Lin Lin. There were words on it that they couldn't understand. Everyone regarded it as an oracle, and Lin Jin was the messenger who communicated with the gods, so they quickly took the letter to Lin Jin.

Lin Jin unfolded the letter, which contained only a few short sentences, concise and to the point:

I have sent supplies to other counties affected by drought. These are for this city and do not need to be transported everywhere.

There is only enough water for people to drink for three months. You have to find ways to get more water on yourselves.

Lin Jin showed the letter to Liu Zhengqing: "We can probably relax a little during this period."

Liu Zhengqing didn't understand, so he just crumpled it up and threw it away. She looked at him helplessly.

"There's still fruit!" Someone exclaimed, then hesitated, "But, but there's only this much. It should be left by the gods for Madam, right?"

"Of course it's for you, not for Madam." The man said as he held the small box of fruit in front of Lin Jin, "Madam, this is left for you by the gods."

All other things were piled up like a mountain and placed randomly on the ground, only the fruit was specially packed in a box, and it was obvious that it was left here on purpose.

Lin Jin looked at the various fruits in the box. Longan, mango, passion fruit, etc. looked visually messy when put together, but it seemed as if all the seasonal fruits were packed in.

Liu Zhengqing frowned, not understanding what Lin Lin was trying to do: "This person is really sick."

If you care so much, why did you do such a thing in the first place? Can't you even love the whole person as well?

Lin Jin pursed her lips slightly, and asked someone to move the box to her place: "Let's not talk about this anymore, after all, it really helped us a lot."

"Madam." Everyone came towards Lin Jin at the same time and knelt down in unison. "If it weren't for you this time, Taiyuan Prefecture would really not be able to hold on."

"No, these are not my achievements, but the achievements of Princess Lin Lin of Jin. These foods and water were sent by her, and have nothing to do with me." Seeing that they took all the credit from her, Lin Jin quickly explained, "Hurry up, you shouldn't thank me, this time you should thank Lin Lin."

"Princess Jin? But the goddess clearly said your name before she left. Did you remember it wrong?"

Lin Jin was stunned when she heard this, and suddenly understood why Lin Lin left a letter that no one else could understand.

"No, it's not me. It's really not me. It's Princess Jin Lin Lin." Lin Jin didn't know what Lin Lin was going to do, but she didn't need to do this. The credit should be given to whomever it is.

Because of the sudden appearance of food and water, the people of Taiyuan Prefecture knew that not only the Prime Minister's wife had come, but even the Princess of Jin had come. They probably thought that since these dignitaries had come in person, the court would not ignore its own people even if it did not care about their lives, and they all believed that they would definitely be saved.

The people now firmly believe that Lin Jin made a deal with the gods. They address Lin Jin from "Madam" to "Sir Liu Jin". Lin Jin's reputation in Taiyuan Prefecture has reached its highest point in a short period of time.
