Violent sword repair teaches you to be a human being

Chapter 111: The Sword Cultivator with Destroyed Immortal Bones (23)
The negotiation went smoothly and unexpectedly.

Maybe this can't be regarded as a negotiation. Seeing how Zhou Wu agreed quickly without even thinking about it, Lin Zhen felt that he was just going through the motions to inform him, let alone digging canals to divert water. He would nod in agreement with other outrageous things.

Alright, it's a good thing, Lin Zhen walked around the river in Pingze a few times, looked at the rolling waves of the river, and thought: At least the water source of Qianlian City has been secured.

Contrary to Lin Zhen's relaxed mood, Zhou Wu looked at Lin Zhen's leaving back and felt a little scared: Oh my god, I actually sent this terrible guy away!Fortunately, she didn't come to find fault!
Lin Zhen's figure slowly disappeared from Zhou Wu's sight, and he stayed there for a while longer to confirm that the other party had really left, so he breathed a sigh of relief and wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.

Until this time, he had no time to think about what happened just now, and lowered his head to recall: What did she say she was going to do just now?

Oh, it seems that they want to divert water from Mingyue River to Qianlian City.

Zhou Wu had also heard about the situation in Qianlian City, and he felt that Xia Jing was really short-sighted: how many offerings can such a prosperous and magnificent town receive every year, why do such a thing as draining the spirit veins?
However, the extracted spiritual veins were really impressive, and even he felt a little moved when he saw them.

But he is different from Xia Jing after all.Xia Jing has Zhou Daoyuan's backing behind him, so he doesn't have to worry about dismantling a place. Anyway, he can find a way to go to another place to continue to be a fairy official.

But he can't do it, he doesn't have any background in Ming Guangzong, and the position of this fairy official is obtained by relatives who have nothing to do with Zhou Daoyuan. If Zhou Wu dares to mess with Pingze like Xia Jing did With that ghostly appearance, he will have to guard the dying Pingze for hundreds of years in the future!
Although he is not very smart, he still has a bit of a brain, so he must not do such a loss-making thing!
Speaking of this, Zhou Wu frowned again: Qianlian City has already become like that, why does that powerful man named Yun Wan bother to divert water from Pingze?Could it be that she wants to live in Qianlian forever?But now Qianlian City's spiritual energy is exhausted and its water source is dry, how much work it will take to recover!With this time, it is better to find another place rich in aura!

As for the other people in Qianlian City who survived with difficulty...it was completely out of Zhou Wu's scope of thinking.

Lin Zhen didn't know that Zhou Wu thought about a lot of messy things after she left.She inspected the Mingyue River's terrain and water volume in Pingze, then returned to Qianlian City, and immediately began to prepare for digging canals to divert water.

The first thing is to go to every village in Qianlian to issue a notice to mobilize the villagers to sign up to participate in the project of digging the canal——

Of course, this is actually not a very difficult thing.

After hearing the salary of five cents a day and two meals a day as mentioned in the notice, the villagers signed up very actively. If the age was not stipulated, even those young children and seventy-year-old men would be willing to do so. Go ahead and grab a spot.

The disciples in charge of registration had to emphasize again and again: "People who come to dig the canal must be over 16 years old and under 60 years old! There is no limit to men and women! If you don't meet the requirements, please don't sign up!"

They even mobilized their spiritual power to repeat this sentence to the crowd in a 360-degree three-dimensional ring space a dozen times.

Even so, there will still be voices of dispute and defense from time to time.

For example, right now, there is an old man with white hair in front of the team who was rejected when he signed up. He tried to explain to the disciple in charge of the registration: "Hey, old man, I just look old. I'm 59 years old!"

The disciple looked up at his gray hair and ravine face, and then touched his bone age: "Master, you are already 80 years old, don't make fun of your body, please? Digging ditches is too much for you. "

"So what about eighty, who said I can't bear it?" The old man looked a little embarrassed after being exposed, and he was a little bit unconvinced, "I am in good health, and I can carry water, chop wood, and plow the fields. Okay, what about digging a ditch?"

The disciple said coldly: "I'm sorry, sir, it's really not possible."

The people behind pushed him and said, "Uncle Zhang, it's fine if you don't meet the requirements, why don't you ask your son to come over and line up? There are still so many people behind!"

Someone also tried to pull a child who was just waist-high: "Please sign up for my Zhuzi too!"

The disciple who was in charge of the application had to lower his head to see the top of the child's hair. He looked at the childish color on the child's ashen face that had not faded, and said helplessly, "This child is not yet sixteen, right?"

"It's not sixteen, but he's already 12 years old!" The adult patted the child on the back and motioned him to raise his head so that his height would look taller. "Although he looks a little short, he has strength But Dali, I usually work smoothly at home! And this year, I have already engaged in marriage, so I am an adult!"

The disciple helped his forehead helplessly: "No. Regardless of whether you are engaged or not, it is not allowed if you are under 16 years old. Next."

……

This kind of situation is not uncommon, and the disciples who are in charge of registration in almost every village have encountered similar things.

So, in less than half a day, the quota for recruiting [-] ordinary people to dig canals had already been filled, and a large group of people was crowded in front of the disciples who were in charge of registration. surrounded together.

The disciples had no choice but to apologize to others who were still in line: "Everyone, the quota is already full."

Those around who didn't sign up and were still waiting in line let out a burst of disappointed boos, hating themselves for not moving faster just now.

They could only look disappointedly at the backs of those disciples putting away their rosters and leaving.

-

Lin Zhen flipped through the list of people who came to dig the canal collected by his disciples, and said slowly while thinking: "We will start digging this canal tomorrow."

"The wages and two meals given to the people who come to dig the canal must not be short of them. Let them rest for an hour at noon every day. If anyone feels unwell, send them to the doctor in time..."

Lin Zhen listed some situations, but didn't think of anything to add for the time being, and said, "That's all, please pay attention to it."

"Don't worry, Senior Yun!" The disciples patted their chests and laughed, "We are not those unconscionable immortals in the sect!"

Lin Zhen nodded with a smile, and said, "I know, everyone is very kind. Then can I trouble you?"

"no problem!"
