In order to change the subject and avoid being discovered by Lin Lin, Lin Jin hurriedly asked Xunmian and the others if they had any soup or something that could dispel the cold for Lin Lin. Although she knew that the heroine had cold medicine in her system, she still had to act well and show concern for what she should.

Xunmian pushed open the door, followed by Xing'er who was holding ginger soup. She had originally cooked some for Lin Jin because the weather was a bit cold today. Unexpectedly, she gave it to the second Miss Lin before the other girls could drink it.

Why is Lin Er so ignorant?

Lin Lin took the bowl of ginger soup and saw the reluctant expressions of Xing'er and Xunmian. He guessed that Lin Jin might not have drunk it yet: "Sixth sister, have you drunk it yet?"

"No, I won't drink it since I'm not caught in the rain." Lin Jin thought of the ginger soup she drank last time. It was so spicy that it almost made her break out in a mask of pain. She didn't want to try it a second time. Besides, ginger was her lifelong enemy. She wouldn't drink it unless she had nothing to do.

Lin Lin walked towards Lin Jin with the ginger soup. For some reason, Lin Jin seemed to see the heroine slowly walking towards her with a bowl of poison. In the end, she couldn't control her fear and turned her body to avoid him: "What, what's wrong?"

Will the heroine find out that she is wearing a mask and want to kill people to silence them?

No way? Even if she was wearing it, she didn't intend to go against the heroine, not to mention there were so many people here.

Lin Lin looked at Lin Jin, stopped, and sighed: "I was just worried that you would catch a cold, so I wanted to give you some ginger soup."

"No, no, no thanks. I don't really like ginger." Lin Jin breathed a sigh of relief, sat up straight, and smiled sheepishly, "Sister, you drink it. It's okay. I'm actually very...A-choo!"

Lin Jin sneezed before she finished speaking. The scene was very awkward for a moment. Lin Jin almost cursed her own useless body in her heart. Why did she sneeze suddenly, just when she was trying to show off.

"Maybe... maybe it's because I've been having a good time recently and my body is a little bit pretentious." Lin Jin smiled awkwardly.

Lin Lin drank the ginger soup silently, then took out a small porcelain bottle from his sleeve pocket and handed it to Xun Mian beside him: "Use water to dissolve the powder inside, and make water for your girl to drink."

Lin Jin stared at the porcelain bottle. Did the heroine buy something from the system mall in front of her?

"Sister?" Lin Jin looked at Lin Lin eagerly, guessing that it contained cold medicine, "What is this?"

"It's a medicine to prevent colds. It's not bitter, but sweet." Lin Lin wanted to laugh, but he just pulled the corners of his lips, "Don't worry, I used to take this."

Lin Jin listened to the heroine fooling her again, as if she was afraid that she would not believe it. The heroine was in great health and did not take medicine when she was sick, just endured it: "Really? Thank you so much, sister."

She had long been tired of ancient Chinese medicine and didn’t even want to drink instant powder before. Now she finally realizes the value of modern instant powder.

Xunmian took the porcelain bottle to the outer room, frowned as he looked at the cup of cold medicine, and asked Xing'er to use a silver needle to test the poison. After making sure that there was no problem, he brought it to Lin Jin. However, he still couldn't help frowning when looking at the cold medicine.

I don’t know if it really works.

Lin Jin looked at the familiar color in the cup and the familiar smell coming from her nose, and she knew that it was definitely the cold medicine.

Lin Jin drank the cold medicine in one gulp. In ancient times, if you really caught a cold, you would be in great trouble. You must not be stubborn at this time: "Thank you, sister."

Lin Lin looked at her silently. Suddenly, he couldn't understand Lin Jin. If she was afraid, why did she drink the medicine without asking any questions? Why did she dare not be on guard when she obviously didn't believe him? If she wanted to harm Lin Jin, it would be too easy.

"Sister?" Lin Jin blinked, feeling panicked. Could it be that when she drank the cold medicine just now, she revealed some details of modern people, which made the heroine suspicious again? Otherwise, why was she looking at her like this without saying anything?

"It's okay, I just think you're a little cute." Lin Lin retracted his gaze, "I don't know if the rain will stop today."

“It should be possible, right?” It was unclear whether the rain would stop today, but Lin Jin knew it would definitely not rain continuously for a long time. The rain would fall intermittently, and then stop for a while. When everyone thought nothing was wrong, it would start to rain heavily and flood a large area.

Lin Jin felt a little anxious when he thought of this. Even in modern times, flood discharge and flood control is still a project, and many places are flooded every year. What could people do in ancient times?

"Sister, it's raining so hard. If it doesn't stop, people's houses and fields will be flooded. What should we do? Will their livelihood for the whole year be wasted?" Lin Jin tried hard to act innocent, wanting to hear an effective solution from Lin Lin.

Others don't know about this flood, but she does. Maybe she can take precautions in advance?

Lin Lin glanced at Lin Jin in surprise. He didn't expect Lin Jin to care about this. "That's true, but now it's almost autumn, so there shouldn't be any floods. Instead, we should worry about the dry weather and sudden flooding. And sudden snowstorms after winter."

Lin Jin knew that this logic was correct, but damn it, this year it rained for almost a month during the transition between autumn and winter.

There is no need to do this if you want the heroine to show off her skills. The people are really innocent and can only blame it on natural disasters and consider themselves unlucky. Sometimes you really can't hide the desire to strangle your best friend to death.

Lin Jin huddled on the bed with her hands on her knees, trying not to look too abrupt. "It would be great if there was a way to prepare for the rainy season next year. Who knows, there won't be so many disaster victims."

"It's very difficult." Lin Lin shook her head. Even though she had the system in her hand, she felt that this was unrealistic. If a flood really came, no matter how she prevented it, it would be useless. There were no tall buildings in this era, so people could only hide in high places. However, when a flood came, there was also the risk of mudslides. In this era, it was good enough to save lives and reduce casualties. Crops and houses could only blame themselves for their bad luck.

There was disappointment in Lin Jin's eyes. It turned out that the heroine had no other choice: "So we can only watch them like this?"

"When encountering such things, we can only rely on God's will and the power of the country. For example, if the harvest is good this year, we can save some money and hold on for a while after the disaster. If the officials in charge of disaster relief provide timely rescue and do not engage in corruption or extortion at every level, the relief food can really fall into the hands of the people. This is also a way for the people to quickly recover and live." Lin Lin didn't know whether Lin Jin could understand, but since Lin Jin cared about these things, she was willing to tell Lin Jin.

"Miss Lin Er, these things are not for you to discuss right now." Xunmian was worried that someone would tell others about what happened today. If the emperor was displeased, it would be considered as discussing state affairs without permission.

Lin Lin just glanced at Xunmian and said, "I remember that Daxia's current regulations are that as long as they don't incite people to panic, even civilians can discuss disaster relief plans. As the saying goes, brainstorming. Working together, this is the fundamental reason why Daxia has become rich and strong in recent years."

"It's okay, Xunmian, I believe you won't say anything nonsense." Lin Jin quickly comforted Xunmian and continued to look at Lin Lin, "Sister, you have something to say, I still want to listen."

"It's not that there is no solution at all, it's just that it can't be used." Lin Lin hesitated whether to continue. After all, she didn't think Lin Jin understood what the following flood control and flood discharge meant. "But these are not something we can do alone. In the face of natural disasters, it is more the power of the country and the masses."

Building reservoirs, planning flood routes and dividing flood storage areas all require measurements by professionals. This is a huge project that was a waste of money and labor in ancient times and was not guaranteed to succeed.

If you are not careful, there may be complaints. In this era, such an approach goes against the advantages of the place and the people.
