The rural life of a peasant girl

Chapter 229 Solve (2)
The water level of this pool is already very low, Su Ling observed to see where the water came from, or if it was the pool's own spring, several people were looking for it.

Soon, Su Ling discovered that there was a spring on the edge of the pool that was gushing out water, pouring into the pool.

Walking in, he found that the spring was blocked by a stone. The water wanted to wash away the stone, but the stone was tightly packed, and Su Ling couldn't get the stone out even with his own strength.

This made Su Ling have to wonder whether the stone fell into the spring accidentally, or someone did it on purpose.Su Ling remembered what the village chief said before, even in dry weather, the Huaxi River has never stopped flowing, and now there is no water in many river sections downstream. Since the flow has not stopped before, how can it stop now? It is said that the stone fell in naturally, so it shouldn't be so tightly packed, but if someone did it on purpose, what was he doing for it?Su Ling was puzzled.

"Uncle Lin, come here quickly, look, the spring here is blocked."

The servant Lin came over to take a look, and wanted to pull out the stone with his hands, but he was not strong enough, so dig her out with a knife!

Yamen Lin took out the small dagger he carried with him. The rock here is very hard, and the stone was packed tightly. Yaya Lin took a lot of effort to dig it out.

Without the restraint of the stones, the spring water in the spring is gurgling, which is many times larger than before.

"Let's look around to see if there are any other springs!" From the fact that the stones were stuffed into the spring just now, Yamen Lin knew that this was not accidental, and if there were other springs, they must have been blocked by someone.

Sure enough, after a while, I found a few more springs, all of which were blocked by stones. Although some water overflowed, it was only a little bit. How could it afford the water flow of the Huaxi River!

"I didn't know it was water, but it was so vicious that it blocked the spring." One of the yamen servants said angrily.

"Go down first! If it gets dark after a while, we can't spend the night in this cave! Let's talk about going down if we have anything to do." Lin Yamen said.

"Uncle Lin is right, let's go down! Now that the stones in the spring have been removed, it shouldn't take long for the pool to be filled with water, and when it flows out, it will flow into the Huaxi River."

The speed of coming down was much faster than that of going up, and the four of them came down in less than half an hour.

"Miss, how's it going inside?" Chazi asked very curiously, although Yanhong also wanted to know, but she didn't make it so obvious.

"Pack up everything first, let's leave here first, we can't spend the night here tonight, let's talk as we walk." Su Ling untied the rope, and asked Chazi to put it away.

The sun was about to set in the sky, and the few people quickly fixed everything and left the waterfall.

Along the way, Su Ling and the two little maids talked about the situation in the cave, and the other servants who did not go up also listened very seriously. When they found out that someone had blocked the spring with stones, they were very angry. When they heard Su Ling say The stone has been dug out by the Lin Yamen, and the Huaxi River will not stop flowing, and I am very happy.

Tongnan.

"Mo, the water source is still not found. If this continues, the water will really be cut off. Two of the five rivers have stopped flowing today, and the residents on the banks of these two rivers can only go to the other three to fetch water. " Duanmuyu said anxiously.

Not only Duanmu Yu was anxious, but Xuanyuan Mo was also very anxious, but this matter was not something he could change, "Is there no water in the wells in the village?"

"It disappeared two days ago, that's why they use the river water. The river water is not as clear as before, it's very turbid. I'm afraid the villagers will not be able to bear it if they drink the river water for a long time."

"Notice first, if you drink the river water, you must boil it before you can drink it. Didn't you send the news to Ling'er? What did she say?"

"I haven't replied yet!" Duanmuyu was very depressed when she said that, Ling'er didn't know what she was busy with, she sent several letters to her during this time, but she still didn't receive a reply.

"Wait a little longer! You go to raise funds for food tomorrow. There are more and more victims now, and the food in the granary is not enough."

"Understood." Duanmuyu replied.

Early the next morning, Duanmuyu took his men and horses to various rich merchants to visit.

Look at the large group of people he brought, those who didn't know thought they were going to rob!Of course, Duanmuyu would not do this kind of thing, she brought so many people just to give these wealthy businessmen a sense of oppression visually.

Every time he came to a wealthy businessman, Duanmuyu would list the conditions that Xuanyuanmo offered them. As long as he was willing to raise funds, they would be considered first in the supply of the palace in the future. There will be no official protection on the way.

Leaving aside the government's protection and non-protection, the condition of becoming an imperial merchant is very attractive. You must know that if they can become an imperial merchant, the things they supply can be branded with the royal label. This is a good publicity. And now if you offend the government, it is really difficult to do things. As the saying goes, the people do not fight with the government, and many wealthy businessmen and landlords have seen the current situation of the Huangfu Empire, so they all expressed their willingness to donate.

After drawing up the agreement, Xuanyuanmo's people are still very powerful. The approximate assets of each family and how much to donate are considered reasonable. They have been found out one by one. The news that Mo got was very close. He couldn't ask these people to be so righteous. It was impossible to donate all their wealth for the sake of the country.

Some wealthy businessmen who were not willing to donate saw that other people had donated, and they also donated some symbolically. Of course, these Duanmuyu were very clear in their hearts, thinking that even if there was a chance for cooperation in the future, they should not consider these things. People are so fast.

It took two full days for Duanmuyu to complete this properly.

Dongyi started to move around again, Xuanyuanmo focused all his attention on the battlefield. Most of the soldiers of the Huangfu Empire were not good at water warfare. Soldiers are still worse.

Dongyi Kingdom is located on an island. The people of the country are very familiar with water and are good at fighting on water. Moreover, their warships are very strong. Thinking of this, Xuanyuan Mo's eyes dimmed. The war is long over.

Thinking of how they used warships to attack ordinary people every time, Xuanyuanmo's breath became cold. The Huangfu Empire was on a plain, and the shipbuilding technology was not as good as that of Dongyi. He also ordered people to transform the warships. , it's just a pity that it still can't achieve the desired effect.
