Chapter 159 Kindness
"Go."

Xie Yanyan's tone was gentle and very determined.

Xie Anfeng and Xu Wenrong worked together and went to find Li Rong.

Xu Wenrong said: "A week ago, I sent a letter to the Xu family, and a drainage system was delivered to their home immediately. Since the government notice has come out, let's unveil the list."

Xie Anfeng was very moved when he heard Xu Wenrong's words. Xu Wenrong had staked the Xu family's reputation.

The Xu family in Suizhou has many talents, so it is normal for them to be able to build a drainage mechanism.

Li Rong immediately went to reveal the official notice. Within a quarter of an hour, Prefect Yan heard the news.

When he came out, he saw it was Li Rong and Mr. Xu, followed by the little girl who said crucian carp was not a fish.

"When the water is drained, the silver reward will be offered immediately."

Xie Yanyan shook his head: "No silver reward."

"Then what do you want?"

"Let's pump the water out of the moat and let the fish in it belong to us."

If all the water in the moat is drained out, the water logging problem in the city will be solved.

"Okay, if you can drain the water from the moat, you can catch any fish in it." Prefect Yan said happily.

Back at the inn, Datongpu had long heard that they were going to unveil the official list, and they all came over and asked Xie Yanyan: "Miss Xie, do you want our help?"

"We can take a basin and scoop out the water."

"Trenches can be dug."

Tang Zhan also came over: "Miss Xie, I have the strength, feel free to assign me any work."

Xie Yanyan looked at them, all of them were in ragged clothes and looked sick, but their faces were filled with the desire to live.

Everyone stopped and looked at her eagerly.

"Have a good rest at night. Early tomorrow morning, go fishing in the moat outside. Whoever catches it will get it." She said lightly.

In one sentence, everyone's eyes lit up.

"Will the government let me fish it out?"

"I will make an agreement with them. I will not accept the reward, but I will catch fish for you."

Everyone paused for a moment, burst into enthusiastic cheers, and burst into tears of joy.

"Thank you, miss."

"Thank you Miss Third."

When it was dark, Xie Yanyan took an umbrella and left the city. Not long after, he took an umbrella from outside and returned to the inn.

"Father, the water pump has been delivered."

"where is it?"

"The city gate."

Xie Anfeng hurriedly put on his raincoat and followed her out. As expected, there were piles of long and short iron pipes, iron wheels with slots, black iron piers, and ropes on the street outside the city. Lots and lots of round leather plugs.

There is also a waterproof iron box. When you open the iron box, you will find wrenches and other tools inside, as well as two pieces of assembly instructions.

The instructions are in traditional Chinese! !
Xie Yanyan: Xiaomei is quite reliable.

[Yes, Xiaomei does her job. She doesn’t need an awl to put the soles on her shoes. She’s really good at needlework]

Xie Yanyan:
Xie Anfeng called Xu Wenrong and Li Rong and said that the water pump had been delivered.

Xie Yanyan thought for a moment and called Xie Yong to see Prefect Yan.

When Prefect Yan heard that it had been delivered, he ran over immediately without even eating.

Install and try it out.

Not long after, the first artificial water wheel pumping machine was installed.

Xie Yanyan said to Xu Wenrong: "Cousin, please shake that handle."

Xu Wenrong shook the handle of the iron wheel on the high tree stump and saw the accumulated water flowing out along the pipe. It doesn't require much strength at all. Anyone who eats two steamed buns at a meal can do this job.

Yan Taishou looked at the thick pipe with a diameter as big as a bowl, and thought to himself: It takes a lot of money to make this iron pipe!
All pipe connections are made of leather soft tubes, and the interfaces are screwed.

It was the first time for Xu Wenrong to see it, and he was learning while assembling it.

Xie Yanyan said to Xie Yong: "Brother, you study hard and watch carefully. This kind of mechanism technique is not seen every day."

Xie Yong dismantled and reassembled everything that Xu Wenrong had assembled. Prefect Yan also asked his craftsmen to learn from him.

They have to pay to buy such an institution. They must research it and maybe sell it to generate income.

Seeing that the water accumulation was decreasing rapidly, Prefect Yan was so happy that his beard stood straight up. He smiled and asked Xu Wenrong whether he could sell them one at a cheaper price.

Xu Wenrong glanced at Xie Yanyan, and Xie Yanyan stretched out five fingers.

Xu Wenrong: "Fifty thousand taels."

Prefect Yan almost fell down and said pitifully: "Master Xu, Yongxing City doesn't have a salt market like Chencheng. Here we only have local people selling vegetables. We are so poor!"

Xie Yanyan quietly said to Xie Anfeng: "Five thousand."

Xie Anfeng then said to Xu Wenrong: "Ning's daughter-in-law gave birth to a child a few days ago. Prefect Yan enthusiastically gave away eleven fish, so I will accept five thousand taels. Thank you Prefect Yan for caring for the people like your own son."

Xu Wenrong's mouth twitched, was he enthusiastic about giving fish? It’s not because of my sister’s sophistry!
He thought Xie Yanyan's five fingers were worth fifty thousand taels.

Five thousand taels is too cheap.

"Since my cousin said so, let's give it five thousand taels. Prefect Yan is saving people, and we are also saving people."

Only then did Governor Yan take a good look at Xie Anfeng and Xie Yanyan.

Only now did he understand that the father and daughter, who had almost no sense of existence in his eyes, were the most powerful.

No, why did he think that Mr. Xu and his cousin both listened to that girl?

Prefect Yan stayed on the front line and summoned a few strong men from the common people to take turns turning the turbine. The only sound was the gurgling sound of water.

In the middle of the night, Prefect Yan couldn't stand it anymore and fell asleep on the table.

Xie Yanyan took a nap, woke up at the fourth watch, and scanned the water in the city. A lot of the accumulated water had been drained out, but there was too much water in the moat, and it couldn't be drained out manually in a week.

On a dark and windy night, when drainage is cheating! Let her do her good deeds to the end.

The accumulated water in the city and the water in the moat instantly reached her three-dimensional space, and a new lake instantly formed in the open space.

Naturally, a lot of fish in the moat also came.

Originally, I wanted to transfer the water to a distant place, but there are farmlands outside. Although it is not very fertile, it is still farmland, and crops are grown.

Forget it, I'll release it next time when I find a dry place.

Taishou Yan fell into a drowsy sleep, but the master shook him awake with a roar.

"My lord, my lord, the water has been drained."

"What? Finished smoking?"

Taishou Yan put on his raincoat and immediately ran out with his master. The guard on guard held up a lantern happily and said, "Master Yan, the water is gone."

After walking around in a big circle, sure enough, the water in the city was gone. I went to the moat to see that the water in the river was gone.

The water in the moat was only half a foot deep, and the river crucian carp kept splashing in the water.

As soon as he saw the crucian carp, Prefect Yan immediately said: "Quickly, find someone to surround the moat. Miss Xie wants to catch fish, and no one else is allowed to come near."

When Taishou Yan realized that crucian carp was not a fish, he was as happy as a child and laughed loudly: "I'm wrong, it's not fishing for fish! It's fishing for crucian carp, silver carp, and snakehead fish, hahaha."

At five o'clock in the morning, Governor Yan came to the inn and tried his best to persuade Li Rong and the others to stay for one more day. He wanted to fulfill his loyalty as a landlord.

Li Rong said to the people in Datongpu: "Get up quickly. Miss Xie has drained all the water from the moat. You go fishing. Whatever you catch is yours."

Xie Tingting asked: "Can I catch him?"

"Ms. Xie said that anyone can be arrested. Whoever catches him will be the one to catch him. It depends on his own ability to catch as many as he wants."

I have something urgent to do today. I gave rewards, voted monthly, and left messages yesterday. Thank you all for tomorrow.
