Chapter 519

Life in Yuzhou and Fancheng began to be difficult.

From the army, it also changed from the previous three meals a day to two meals.

Even so, they lived a better life than ordinary people.

Although there are drought-resistant medicinal materials in the field, due to the lack of water, the growth of medicinal materials this year is obviously not as good as in previous years.

Moreover, the grain prices in the markets of Yuzhou City and Fancheng have begun to fluctuate.

Yuzhou is better, after all, Qin Zicheng is the only one who decides here.

But Fancheng is obviously much worse.

For the same grain, the price of grain in Fancheng is higher than that in Yuzhou.

When the two reservoirs in the army were completely exhausted, new regulations were placed on the use of water in the military camp.

Now, it has been changed to rice soup every day.

There are several villages where water is completely unable to be produced from the wells.

Moreover, the weather is so hot that people can faint if they only burn in the sun for a quarter of an hour.

"Since February, it has been sunny every day. Our water source is not enough, so how can we withstand such consumption?"

The person who spoke was an official with a beard, who seemed to be a clerk in the prefect's mansion.

"What's the use of saying this? The most urgent thing is to find a way to find a source of water. In any case, we cannot be in chaos. Once it is in chaos, how should hundreds of thousands of people in Yuzhou City be placed?"

Qin Zicheng knew that if he wanted to relieve himself, he still had to wait.

Feng Wuyao, under his suggestion, unblocked the artificial lake. However, for safety and to allow everyone to use water, Qin Zicheng still sent heavy troops to guard it.

This artificial lake is so precious, and it is larger than all the reservoirs dug before.

With this artificial lake, the surrounding villages are probably able to last more than a month.

Of course, this is when water withdrawal is restricted.

In order to prevent the water from evaporating in this artificial lake, Qin Zicheng ordered the people to come to fetch water in the evening or early in the morning, and they were not allowed to fetch water during the day.

In addition, Qin Zicheng released another message, indicating that this was the water used to save lives that the little fairy Feng had specially left for the people, so everyone must do it.

Moreover, Feng Xiaoxian used magic here, and everyone could not see this artificial lake during the day.

In fact, if Qin Zicheng didn’t need to send the news out on purpose, the people would have already spread it to the point of being amazing.

It’s just that I haven’t even seen it before. Suddenly one day, such a large artificial lake fell from the sky, how could it not be surprising?

Some villagers also said that they seemed to have seen it before, but they seemed to have not seen it for several months.

Therefore, this must be a gift from a master of enlightenment, so you must be respectful.

With this statement, the people will naturally become more conscious of getting water.

Considering that it is not easy for everyone, some even pushed cars to fetch water from several villages, Qin Zicheng ordered a few more water intake outlets.

Still, I can only get one bucket at a time and use the wooden sign to get water.

The barrels are all unified. After being shot by the soldiers, they are poured into the vessels brought by the people.

This is also to avoid unnecessary disputes.

A bucket of water will save money on a family of people, and it is enough to eat and drink.

Feng Wuyao sighed, "It's a pity that I can't walk the Cloud and Rain Art here, otherwise, it wouldn't have made the people so sad."

The speaker has no intention, and the listener has his heart.
