Chapter 716 Willingly
After the strike, when those people needed water, they filtered it on the spot and used it right away.

"Don't tell me, the filtering technique Ye Yan taught us is good, but I don't know why he came up with some bad ideas." A man laughed while fetching water.

"Who knows, you see we are on strike, but we are still living well. If you ask me, he is not as smart as everyone said." The woman echoed beside him.

The man smiled and said: "Look at the house next door, those foolish boys are still working."

The woman followed the man's gestures and looked over. The boys in the yard next door were still busy following Ye Yan's instructions.

At this time, it was noon, the sun was shining on the top of the head, and the old yellow dog at home kept sticking out its tongue.

"I said, boy, why are you so stupid, Ye Yan is Nan Li's master, so you can do whatever you want?" The man laughed.

Not only that, the man moved a bench, sat at the gate of the yard, and looked at the busy young men next door.

"Uncle Wang, it's your business if you don't listen. The brothers in my family are honest people. What the gentleman said must not be wrong." The eldest brother in the family replied politely.

The man shook his head, looking at his brothers as if they were fools.

"Daughter-in-law, look at these stunned youths, they are stupid in reading." The man's mouth was full of sarcasm.

"Brother, look at their eyes." The younger brother felt a little uncomfortable.

"That's right, big brother, the other neighbors didn't work anymore, or we could go on strike." The second brother also said.

"No, you can't be like them. Look at the weather. It will rain heavily in a few days. You two plan to go to the mountains to fetch water?" asked the elder brother.

The two boys glanced at each other and shook their heads in unison.

"Don't worry about it, Mr. Ye must have a reason for us to do this." The elder brother knew it well.

"Really?" The two younger brothers looked puzzled.

"Really, Mr. Ye is Nanli's master. It's not like you and I don't know the environment in Xiqiu. What can he have for us." The elder brother snorted coldly.

Although they didn't know what their elder brother meant, the two younger brothers knew that listening to what the elder brother said would not hurt them.

On the other side, Ye Yan looked at the sky, and the heavy rain came in three or two days.

This heavy rain is not easy. Many places in Xiqiu are afraid of being trapped indoors.

Ye Yan, according to my experience, Xiqiu will be flooded this time in all likelihood. "Changqing also understands a little bit.

"That's right, those people who don't know good people will be thirsty this time." Ye Yan said innocently.

"However, flooding the village is not a good thing. Aren't there still so many honest workers?" Chang Qing reminded.

"I've planned this a long time ago." Ye Yan smiled and said mysteriously.

Changqing was puzzled this time: "What did you secretly arrange?"

Ye Yan shook his head: "How can I be so powerful, but this time they help themselves."

When repairing the well, Ye Yan assigned other tasks, including digging ditches.

Most of them stop working halfway through the work. They don't understand why they need to dig trenches to build a well.

There are also those who have dug along steadily. Ye Yan has carefully inspected the dug trenches, and there is no problem in terms of quality.

"By the way, the thing you mentioned has been manufactured to seven or eight points, and it can be inspected and accepted this afternoon." Chang Qinghui reported.

"Just right." Ye Yan clapped his hands.

Ye Yan was already studying how to simplify the water purification process when he learned that everyone was on strike.

Ye Yan knew that they went on strike because they were too tired from work, so it was somewhat understandable for them.

However, Ye Yan didn't explain much to them in advance, because as a commoner, trusting the leader unconditionally is the first step.

After Ye Yan finished his work, he went to check and accept the automatic water purifier made by the craftsmen.

When he came to the workshop, Ye Yan personally tested the usability of the equipment, and the results were very good, exceeding his expectations.

"Send this machine to someone who has finished their work." Ye Yan ordered to his subordinates.

The subordinate replied with a smile, "I'll go right away."

The strikers looked at the people Ye Yan sent, busy in several yards, loading something into the well.

"Brother, what are they doing?" the two younger brothers asked in unison.

The young man smiled: "I guess, it's a good thing."

"How do you know?" The younger brother was puzzled again.

"Look, none of them are on strike." The eldest brother gestured to the two younger brothers with his eyes.

The two children nodded half-understanding.

"Little brother, turn this place, and the well water will be pumped up, and then filtered automatically, so you can drink it directly." The subordinate instructed.

The three children were ecstatic, and hurried forward to try it.

Sure enough, the clear water flowed down.

The men next door looked at it, and suddenly they felt uncomfortable.

"This..." The strikers were suddenly at a loss for words.

Suddenly, the sky changed drastically, and the clouds suddenly covered.

"It's going to rain heavily." The brothers collected the things in the yard and quickly hid in the house.

The rain soon became heavy, with lightning and thunder. The terrain of Xiqiu was already low, and water accumulated in a short while.

The people who were on strike suddenly realized that something was wrong, water began to accumulate at the door of the house, and they couldn't get out even if they wanted to go out.

Seeing the next door through the window, those honest and hard-working homes did not accumulate rainwater.

Upon closer inspection, the water actually flowed elsewhere along the ditch.

There was lightning, thunder, and strong winds outside, and it was impossible to go out, but Ye Yan sent someone to bring something to the well, which was able to pump water to the house.

"Come on, we really misunderstood Mr. Ye!" The strike leader realized it later.

This rain has been going on for a long time, maybe five or six days in a row.

During this period of time, those who went on strike had a very bad life. There was no fresh water at home, and they lived in poverty for so many days.

Not only that, there is water in the house, the room is humid everywhere, and some people accidentally get eczema.

The more they thought about it, the more they felt that they were stupid, and even took King Nanli as a laughing stock.

After the rainy season passed, they returned to work as soon as possible, not daring to say anything more.

Remembering that they had spoken badly to the people Ye Yan sent to help, the people of Xiqiu quickly conveyed their regrets to Ye Yan.

When Ye Yan received these words of apology, he was not surprised at all, it was all in his expectation.

There was a reason why people in Xiqiu had a miserable life before. They didn't have any advantages in terms of terrain, and they refused to listen to other people's suggestions.

Everyone was willing to work and everything went smoothly.

Although the process was tortuous, fortunately, it was successful on the whole.

Seeing that the results were good, Ye Yan began to plan for the second round of enrollment. They still have a lot to learn.

After this time, Ye Yan's position became stronger.
