Chapter 274 Water Sources
When Ning Mo heard this, she didn't feel any emotion, but nodded calmly, and continued, "How many people were caught?"

"I caught three, but I always feel that there are more people in the city!" Liu Zhifu said.

"Well, there should be more. Now that it's arranged, it won't be just three people."

Thinking of this, Ning Mo lowered her head and spoke to Liu Zhifu, making arrangements one by one, making Liu Zhifu's eyes bigger and bigger.

"Is this really possible?" Prefect Liu asked.

"Will it work, don't you know if you try it?" Ning Mo said with a smile, looking at the enemies who were full of silence, it is estimated that they are also waiting.

When Liu Zhifu heard this, he also pondered for a while, then gritted his teeth and went out. Now he can only try it out.

The sky gradually darkened, gongs and drums began to be beat on the street, and the doors of every house were opened.

They are used to it these days. Once something happens, they will be notified by beating gongs and drums, so they are all looking forward to it, and they must not hear the sound of gongs and drums.

But there is no way, everyone knows that the water source is poisonous, and you can't drink the water. Looking at your water tank, I don't know how many people are worried.

This day or two is okay, but after a long time, who can stand it.

But no one expected that this time it was not about the draft, but about collecting things.Washbasins, footbaths, tubs, and even pails.

A family must produce four, and every household must have no less.

This is a surprise to everyone. What are you doing with this thing?Is it for firewood?

But everyone is used to it. Now that there is a war, everything is missing.Give what you want, not for anything else, just to survive.

And how well do you cooperate?Even people who live in daily life, they can give the bucket but not the basin, and give it to the best.

Not for anything else, just to be able to win the battle, so as not to lose your life.Life is gone, what else is there to say, what's the use of asking for pots and pans.

As for what are these pots for?
No one knew, but in the evening, they learned a new piece of news, and they felt even more hopeless.

The well was filled, the water was poisonous, and the water was undrinkable, but some people were thirsty and couldn't afford to buy expensive water, so they went to steal the poisonous water to drink.

For this reason, there was a conflict between the yamen servants and the people, and the magistrate was afraid that there would be trouble again, so he directly filled these dozens of wells.

No one should think about fetching water, so they will be honest, but it also makes people who have no water to drink very distressed. What should they do? Are they really going to buy expensive water?
I don't know which wicked person came up with the idea of ​​high-priced water, it's a trap.

The well water is poisonous, so it must be undrinkable, but it can't really die of thirst.Everyone stared at the house with a well.

This well water does not cost money, so it is not a big deal if we borrow some to use it.

But the difficulty is that the well water of a family cannot be borrowed by dozens of families. If you come and go, this family will not have to live.

And, soon someone started selling water.It's not cheap at all, a bucket of water costs a hundred cents.

As soon as this situation came out, some people began to scold their mothers. Isn't this robbery?

One hundred words?It's enough for the family to chew for half a month, but now they can only buy a bucket of water?But even so, some people still buy it, not for anything else, just to live.

As soon as someone bought it, the price of water began to rise, from [-] yuan a bucket of water to [-] yuan, and some people even started selling it for [-] yuan in the afternoon.

As a result, those who would otherwise be willing to give water from their own wells to neighbors are less willing.The reason is simple, everyone is generous with things that don't cost money, and no one is willing to sell things that can be sold for money, even if it's just well water.

So seeing the well being filled, everyone felt very desperate, and now they can only desperately buy high-priced water to survive.

"What can I do! I can't live through this day!"

"Before the enemy came in, we were dying of thirst, and we couldn't survive at all!"

"Adults, think of a way, it really won't work without water."

Crying and shouting on the street continued, men, women and children were all like this, it was very bitter.

The common people are clamoring for the sky and land. At this time, the officials should actually stand up to appease their emotions.But everyone knows that whoever stands up at this time will be unlucky.

The emotions of the people are too excited, and they are all negative, as if they are about to die.Now whoever stands up to say a word, if he doesn't speak well, he will be thrown with vegetable leaves all over his body.

Therefore, no one dared to make a promise, except Liu Zhifu.

No one expected Liu Zhifu to stand up. Everyone looked at him and looked at each other.

"I think you all know me, I won't talk nonsense to you, and I won't say anything to make you bear with it, the enemy is outside, we have to kill the enemy first and then solve the things in the city.

Now I can tell you that we will solve the problems in the city immediately, because I know that people will die without water, and we can't stand it without water.

Now, I, Liu, am here to tell everyone, don’t be afraid, go home now and get the water basins from each household, whether there are too many, one basin of water per family, I can guarantee it! "

Liu Zhifu's words were very surprising, they didn't expect Liu Zhifu to say that, they didn't even have any doubts, and ran home quickly.

Take something, the magistrate said that there will be water!

"My lord, where are we going to find water!" an official asked.

"Don't worry, we can find it."

Prefect Liu was full of confidence, but at this time, the strong laborers drawn from various households had already put on simple military uniforms, and with new weapons in their hands, they knocked on the doors of each household.

How many households in Fucheng have wells in their yards?There are 180 nine households in total.

It doesn't mean that if there is a yard, there will be a well. Only those who are really not short of money will spend this money.

There are 180 households, one family guards four soldiers, two are responsible for delivering water, and the other two guard the safety of the well in shifts.

Don't ask the host if they are willing or not. Asking is a special period, and everything must obey orders,

unwilling?Would you like to go to prison?
So, in the evening, everyone watched one bullock cart after another, pulling buckets of clear water to appear.

Look at that bucket, it looks familiar, it was donated by them one by one.Now they can be regarded as knowing that these buckets are actually used in this way.

They felt that they really met a good magistrate.I never cared about their life and death just because of the war outside. This really put the people in my heart.

Everyone had water to drink, and knelt on the ground to thank Liu Zhifu. Although Liu Zhifu looked calm on the surface, he was moved in his heart.But he was not very happy, after all, the situation outside is unknown now.

It's just that what he said was touching, and it also made people feel that there was a gap in his heart.

"Don't kneel down and thank me, I don't need your thanks. What I need are living people with fighting spirit.

Because you are the last barrier in this war!Save your lives now, and save your lives to fight the enemy, this is not a death in vain! "
