Dragon Ball: Saiyan's Gourmet Journey

Chapter 67 Wang Duoyu invested in this project
"So as long as we find a high water vein, we can make the dry river full of water again?"

"Once a spring is opened that is higher than the riverbed, this is theoretically possible."

Batunan didn't dare to make a guarantee, as there were many issues involved.

There is absolutely no difference in difficulty between digging a deep well and digging a stable spring to bring life to the entire river.

"In that case, let us help you."

Broly said.

"Eh?!"

Upon hearing this, both the other children and Batunan were stunned.

"I admit that you are quite strong, but finding water veins is a technical job. You, a child, can't help."

Batunan shook his head. He had invested all his fortune in digging deep water wells, but in the past ten years, he could only make some noise in the beginning. After that, he had to do the smuggling water business to barely make a living and continue exploring the water veins near the riverbed.

"Who said there's only one big brother?"

When the children in the room heard what he said, they immediately became unhappy.

These people are the ones who surround Broly and follow him.

“It’s the same with a group of kids.”

Batunan held his forehead. This matter would not be helpful just by having more people. People with professional knowledge were needed to help. But the problem was that ideals could not overcome reality. Those idealistic companions he had gathered had already bowed under the pressure of reality.

"We have money."

"Even if you have money... Hey, what are you talking about? How much money do you have?"

"About 20 million."

"Sigh~"

Batunan took a deep breath and immediately put his hands together with a sincere look on his face.

"I'm sorry, I spoke too loudly just now. Please help me."

"No problem, Wang Duoyu has invested in this project."

Broly said the lines that came to his mind, and the children were confused.

"Brother, who is Wang Duoyu?"

"I don't know. Maybe a fish."

"Is it tasty?"

"Never eaten."

. . . .

"Batunan, where did you get this idiot from?"

"Hush, the sponsor is right behind me."

"Uh, I mean the kind-hearted person who supports your outrageous idea?"

"Why do you care where I got it from? I just want to ask you, are you coming to do it?"

"Why wouldn't I do it if I can make money? However, the Katissi Oasis Cult is very powerful now, and many people believe their theories. We have to be low-key when doing this."

"Nonsense, I've been chased for three years, so I know I have to keep a low profile."

……

With Broly's sudden investment, Batunan's spring digging business received huge support.

In just two days, Batunan gathered a group of old partners and hired them with money.

A group of people sneaked around and started digging in the places where he judged there were high-lying water veins.

Broly's team followed Batunan, and while they were with this group of people, they heard about Batunan's past.

Batunan and others were experts who were invited by local dignitaries to survey water veins and dig deep wells after the Katisi region suffered from water shortage twelve years ago.

Among them, Batunan had the sharpest vision. He was very accurate in digging deep wells. At that time, iron smelting required a large amount of water, so he was sought after by many powerful people at that time.

However, when Batunan expanded the business of digging deep wells to the common people, various places in the Katisi region gradually introduced laws prohibiting private digging of wells.

"At that time, we lost the job of digging wells, and Batunan was the best among us. If he had left directly, the money he earned from digging a large number of deep wells would have been enough for him to be a rich man for the rest of his life. Unfortunately, that guy lost his mind and said something about reviving the Katisi River..."

“I just want more people to have water to drink.”

"This matter should be considered by the big guys. What does it have to do with a well digger like you?"

"It's all because of those people who don't support my plan."

"I don't think they can support you. The rich and powerful at that time all started to make money by selling water. You want to revive the Katisi River. If the Katisi River really revives, who can they sell their well water to?"

"Batunan, just be happy. Your plan is too outrageous. Until now, there is no sign of it being realized. Those big shots either regard you as a clown or forget about you. Otherwise, you will definitely meet with an accident."

"Damn it, I will definitely revive this river and show those guys that I, Batunan, am not someone who talks casually. My name is destined to be engraved on the riverbed that is about to revive."

"What about us?"

Broly asked from the side.

"Of course, as supporters of this great project, your names will definitely be engraved on the riverbed, but only after mine."

Batunan was very adamant about this.

"If the Katisi River can be revived, it will definitely be a big earthquake for Katisi. But Batunan, if you want to be famous, just be famous yourself. Don't count us in. We still want to live a normal life."

An old well digger said that if Batunan had not paid him enough money this time, he would not have done this deadly job. "Broly, do you really want to bring our names in?"

Maillard pulled the boy aside and asked.

"Any questions?"

Broly was a little confused.

"I can already imagine the scene where our names appear on the Assassin's Society's commission list."

Maillard rubbed his temples, feeling a little headache.

Three days ago, when she went to comfort the girl, the entire team made a big investment behind her back.

By the time Maillard found out, the money had already been thrown by Broly to the guy named Batunan.

Reviving the Katisi River sounds like a great thing, but for an individual, it is a thankless task.

It can't be recovered. It's like the money thrown into the water and splashed on the water, and no sound can be heard from it.

If it can really recover, it will mean standing directly against the powerful class in the entire Katisi region who benefit from the water shortage.

Are those people strong? They are not. If Maillard goes to assassinate them personally, he can easily kill a dozen of them.

But those people are rich, and blocking someone's financial path is like killing their parents. If the Katisi River is really revived, those guys will definitely send people to investigate.

Unless they silenced the others after digging out the spring, otherwise, with so many eyes and ears, the group of people who used money to fund the revival of the Batunan River would definitely be exposed. The next step would be to be listed on the Empire's wanted list and the bounty list of various assassination organizations.

But can she silence the witness? Maillard can do this without any psychological burden, but this matter was not led by her, and she didn't even pay for it, so she couldn't do anything.

After all, if she really did something, once other people knew about it, they would definitely exclude her.

After traveling together for so many days, Merad didn't want to be hated by these girls. As for the boys, except Broly, he didn't care about the others.

Merad once asked Broly why he did such a thankless task, but the answer he got was: "If there was water, the people here would be happier."

Simple and free-spirited, this is Maillard's latest evaluation of Broly. He just happened to meet a spring digger, who happened to have an unreliable plan to revive the river.

After Broly learned about this, he thought that if this plan was realized, it might make the people in the Katisi region happier, so he directly invested a large sum of money without considering whether the plan could succeed, nor did he consider what the consequences would be if the plan succeeded.

Just because I wanted to do it, I did it.

Merad had to admit that Broly who answered this question was extremely attractive. He had pure kindness towards others, which made her drool like a treasure.

But after all, Merad was an assassin who had been exposed to the dark side since she was a child. She felt that this was asking for trouble, so she wanted to drag others to make Broly change his mind.

The result is that other people wholeheartedly agree with Broly's ideas. People like Akame, who have experienced the sufferings of the world, trust Broly, which makes them highly assimilated with Broly's ideas. As long as Broly agrees, they will also agree.

Merad was speechless. When she wanted to seek help from Esdeath to persuade Broly, she got it from this northern girl who believed in the law of the jungle.

"It's very interesting. A strong person should be like him (Broly), changing the world as he pleases. What do you say? You will encounter enemies. Eh, isn't that better?"

She almost forgot that Esdeath was a battle maniac and her thinking was different from that of normal people. The enemy only made her more excited.

Well, no one in the team is willing to accompany her to persuade Broly to change his mind, so she can only take the risk of being put on the commission list of her own organization and being laughed at by Barbara, and give up her name (not a typo) to accompany the boy she likes, even if it is embarrassing.

If they could really find the source of the leak, those powerful people in Katisi would investigate her and even dare to put her on the wanted list of the assassin's society.

Then she doesn't mind accepting her commission and going to the door to deliver her head. As for whether she is going to deliver her own head or the other party's head, it is hard to say.

However, it is better not to embarrass yourself if possible.

"Broly, it's too tacky to leave your real name when doing good things. How about we learn from some thieves or rebels and leave some powerful nicknames?"

Broly thought about it and felt that what Maillard said made sense, so he nodded and said, "Then my nickname will be the Red Scarf who does good things without leaving a name."

Maillard: “???”

As soon as she made the suggestion, the other children immediately became interested. While Batunan was working hard, they started to discuss heatedly what nickname they should leave behind.

During the journey here, these children have heard many stories about bandits and rebel armies. Although funding the digging of springs does not seem to be related to these two, if they want to leave their names, they must give themselves a resounding nickname.

"I want to be called Red Scarf No. 3 who does good things without leaving a name, and my sister is No. 2."

Hei Tong said decisively.

"Then I'll call you number 4."

Myne said.

"What are your nicknames?"

Just when Broly was clamoring about calling nicknames, a group of kids were preparing to form a red scarf multi-person team led by him to do good deeds without leaving a name.

Someone from Batunan's side also spoke to him: "Batunan, where did you find the sponsors of those children?"

"You may not believe this, but they came to me on their own initiative."

"Then you better be careful. If they find out that you took the money but couldn't dig up the spring, they might come to trouble you."

"Don't worry, I have a hunch, I'm about to find it!"

"Tsk, you said this three years ago, and you're still saying it three years later. If it was really that easy to find a high-lying water vein, would you have to spend all your money to find it now?"

The well digger who was digging in the pit said this and dug in with a shovel.

With a puff, he was splashed in the face by the water that sprayed out from the ground.

"It's out of the water, it's out of the water!"

With a wet face, he lay down at the edge of the pit and shouted excitedly.
