Chapter 353
Zhang Qian was upset and began to clear the table.Now that there is little water in the drought, no one dares to use water to wash dishes as luxuriously as before.I just wiped it with a rag, and there was no oil or water anyway.

After washing the dishes, Zhang Qian quietly looked outside. Seeing no one, she quickly covered the kitchen door and secretly took out a dried sweet potato the size of half a palm from under the woodpile.Wipe the sweet potatoes clean with the water used to wipe the bowl before, hide under the stove and eat the sweet potatoes in two or three bites.

According to Zhang Qian's lofty temperament before, she would never be able to do such a thing.But there is no way, who makes life so hard now.Three meals a day were changed to two meals a day, and the meals were porridge and pickles, and they couldn't even eat a little bit of oil.In the past, she clamored to lose weight every day, and she would not even touch the oil.Now she can't bear to eat fat every day.

As soon as I stood up from behind the stove, I heard a "bang" and the door was kicked open.The eldest sister-in-law rushed in aggressively: "Are you stealing food? Well, Zhang Qian, a lady official from the city, eats our house and lives in our house, and steals food from my house, how shameless you are? I want to see how much food you have hidden in my house, no wonder the food is getting less and less enough, it turns out that there is a thief in the house."

Even if the matter was true, Zhang Qian had no face to admit it, so naturally she refused to admit it, and immediately retorted.There was quite a commotion between the two, and they immediately attracted others, and soon a family battle began.

On the other side, Wang Zheng brought people back again.Bringing the latest news from the town.

The safe zone has been built. Although the area is not very large, it is enough to accommodate the remaining population.The land around the town has also been taken back, and all future farming will be arranged by the safe zone.On this point, most people are fine.It's easy to handle if you have an opinion, either keep it or don't enter the safe zone.

It's just that I can't grow food now, and if I don't rely on the safe zone, how can I support myself?So basically everyone acquiesced to all the regulations of the safe zone.

When Wang Zheng came back, he reported the news of the town to Wu Qingfeng, and he also reported the drought.

The town is not as unique as Chitose Village, and it can also go up the mountain to find water.Once the wells in the town run dry, everyone can only wait to die of thirst.

"I got news that a reservoir was built on the mountain behind Wangshui Village, and there is still water there."

The water was found, but this water is not lucky!Because of the drought, why are the people in Wangshui Village willing to let people outside the village take away their life-saving water?

For this water, the two sides almost did not stage a full martial arts.

Let's exchange it for grain. The people in Wangshui Village set the price extremely high and limited it.Even if they are willing to spend a lot of money, they can't get enough water, so naturally they won't.

What's more, now that the safety zone has been built, although the land has been taken back, there is no way to farm it at this time. They can only feed so many people in vain, and there is no food income.In this difficult time, it is even more impossible to exchange so much food for water.

The two sides are at a stalemate now, and Wang Zheng has no choice but to come to Qiantui Village to find a solution.

"Is there a lot of water in the reservoir?" Wu Qingfeng asked.

Wang Zheng was silent for a moment, then shook his head: "The reservoir isn't that big, and the water in it is only about a quarter of what it used to be, not a lot."

This is also the reason why they have never been robbed by others.The people in the town wanted to survive, so did the people in Wangshui Village.They cannot ignore other people's lives just for themselves.

Lei Peng took a deep breath, feeling a little puzzled about this matter.Now the drought is widespread, where can I find water?If offering sacrifices to heaven can make it rain heavily, even if it makes him lose the materialistic views that have been rooted in his heart since he was a child.

Wu Qingfeng thought of the waterfall he saw when he went to the mountain to look for Master Yao last time.The amount of water there is not small.

Even though the drought is severe now, Wu Qingfeng feels that there is no shortage of water in Sishen Mountain.It's just that it goes too deep, and even if ordinary people go in, they can't get the water out.

It seems that this matter can only be done by himself.

"Driving the water truck here, I'll take care of the water problem. Water will be delivered three times a week, save yourself some money." Wu Qingfeng made the final decision.

Wang Zheng's eyes widened in surprise, and he turned to Lei Peng inquiringly.Lei Peng shrugged, saying that he didn't know how to solve it.

"Will it be too embarrassing?" Wang Zheng asked with conscience.

Wu Qingfeng looked back at him meaningfully: "What do you think? Since I said I will help you solve it, you just do it."

Wang Zheng's heart shuddered at that glance, and he didn't dare to question this expert who even the instructor respected so casually.

Since they are experts, there must be methods they don't know about.The most important thing now is to solve the immediate problem.

Wang Zheng stood up and gave a standard military salute vigorously, and went back to town to switch trains full of excitement.

On this day, Wu Qingfeng and Lian Yao took three empty Qiankun bags and ran to the waterfall in the mountains that they remembered.This time, the goal is clear, Lian Yao has already built a foundation, and her walking speed is much faster.

Lianyao continued to use the ice condensation technique in front of the waterfall, condensing huge blocks of ice.Wu Qingfeng was guarding beside him, and at the same time, he also condensed a piece from time to time.Although the size of the condensed ice cubes is very shabby, it is better than nothing.

There is plenty of water here, and after refining Yao and building a foundation, the power of spells is greater than before. In about an hour, a Qiankun bag has been filled.

Feeling that there is not much spiritual energy in her body, Lian Yao stopped to meditate to recover, and then repeated the previous actions.

There are many trees and water here, and Lianyao is also the spiritual root of Mizuki, it is simply a resort for her cultivation.If she didn't have something to do, she would be a little reluctant to leave here.

But Wu Qingfeng didn't care, for him, any place with soil was his practice resort.It's the same at the foot of the mountain or deep in the mountains.However, it cannot be denied that the more you go to the remote mountains, the more aura you will have.

It took several hours to fill up the three universe bags, and the two returned to the compound before dawn.And the water truck sent by the town has also arrived.

Wu Qingfeng first dug a large pit outside the backyard wall with the technique of gathering soil, and then hardened the surface of the pit, which looked a bit like cement solidified.

Lian Yao threw the ice cubes from the Qiankun bag into the pit, and then went back to the room with Wu Qingfeng to sleep.

The weather is so hot, these ice cubes should all melt into water when they wake up.Then just pump the water into the tanker.

Wang Zheng didn't expect the problem to be solved so quickly. In the evening, when he was about to serve dinner, he was called to the compound by Wu Qingfeng.When he saw the water tanker that had been filled, his eyes almost popped out of his sockets.

In fact, a carload of water is only three tons, and there are more than 1 people in the town, and only about one or two hundred milliliters are distributed to their hands.On such a hot day, it may not even be enough to quench your thirst.

Wang Zheng couldn't help but feel moved, and asked tentatively: "Can I come to tow another truck tomorrow? This little water can indeed solve the urgent needs of the town, but it must be far from enough..."

Wu Qingfeng raised his brows, obviously he didn't expect that a person who has always been upright would also learn to push his feet.Fortunately, they brought back a lot of ice cubes, and they could fill dozens of trucks casually, so they didn't care about Wang Zheng's snack machine, and agreed readily.

Wang Zheng was so happy that he didn't even have time to eat, so he took three big white flour steamed buns with him and took them back to town.
