In the early morning, the sun rises in the clear blue sky without the crowing of the rooster.

In the bedroom of County Magistrate Zhou in the backyard of Linshui County Government Office.

Zhou Zhanpeng, the 30-year-old county magistrate, had a sad face, dull eyes, and looked like an old man. He sighed as he got up...

"Master, you tossed and turned last night and hardly slept the whole night. You should take care of your body. If you fall ill, who can Yan'er and I turn to?"

Mrs. Zhou, Mrs. Qiao, said as she helped County Magistrate Zhou put on his clothes.

"Madam, you don't know that Linshui County is in dire straits right now, with internal and external troubles.

It felt like there was a fire burning in my heart and I couldn't sleep at night.

I am so worried! I am so worried!

The water levels in several wells in the county were getting lower and lower. Not only were the government warehouses out of food, but the grain shops in the county town were also running out of food to sell.

As long as the wells in the county town dry up or food is unavailable, the people will immediately abandon the city and Linshui County will become a deserted town.

The refugees outside the county town are gathered in groups and may riot again at any time.

If the drought is not alleviated and food cannot be transferred from other places, Linshui County will sooner or later fall into chaos.

Madam, look at the sun in the sky. It is already late autumn, but the sun is still shining brightly every morning.

God doesn't want ordinary people to have a way to survive!

Things seemed to be turning around, but Li Lao Er messed it up!"

Speaking of Li Lao Er, County Magistrate Zhou was so angry that he couldn't even breathe. After taking a breath, he continued, "The day before yesterday morning, the people from Qian's grain store came to the county government office and said that the grain that Xinglong Escort Agency had pledged to Qian's grain store was not far from our county town.

When I heard the news that the food had arrived, I felt relieved and happy...

What happened? That damn Li Lao Er!

The food had already arrived outside the county gate, but his men did not open the gate in time, so the food was snatched by the refugees..."

Magistrate Zhou became more and more angry as he spoke, and could not help but punch himself in the chest a few times.

"Oh! Master! What are you doing? Calm down first, calm down...

Didn’t Li Laoer get beaten with ten boards?

In fact, it’s not all his fault, he doesn’t have any bad intentions.

It is said that Li Laoer has a younger sister, who seems to be the daughter-in-law of the Lin family.

The master has beaten him and scolded him, so let it go. What if in the future..."

While persuading County Magistrate Zhou, Qiao tried to pull his hand which was beating his chest.

"Madam, the food has been looted by the refugees. Not only will the county's grain stores have no food to sell, but the Xinglong Escort Agency will also have to pay a large sum of money.

The owner of Xinglong Escort Agency is the in-laws of Lin's children. How can this happen... How can I face the Prime Minister in the future? Li Laoer, that idiot, has no tact and has killed me!

If one day there is no food to buy in Linshui County, the people can abandon the city to escape the famine. If I also abandon the city, I guess my career as an official will be over.

Now, it’s hard for me to leave, but it’s also hard for me to stay!

Madam, something big will happen in this county sooner or later. I am worried about you and Yan Ge'er being here.

I will ask Li Laoer to bring some people to escort you and your son to your hometown in the countryside of Hanzhou. You go and pack your things quickly..."

As Magistrate Zhou spoke, he was anxious to go out the door...

"Master, there's no point in being anxious now, why don't we go find Chief Lin and see if he can help us think of a solution.

Patriarch Lin is Prime Minister Lin's cousin. Even if he has no solution, the master's difficulties can be solved by Prime Minister Lin.

If anything major happens in Linshui County in the future, Prime Minister Lin will be able to give the master a few words of advice in front of the current emperor.

My hometown in Hanzhou is about 700 miles away from here. It’s so chaotic outside now, it’s too dangerous for me to take Yan’er all the way back.

Why don't I take Yan'er to live in Linjia Village for a while?

Linjia Village is not only the prime minister's fiefdom, but also has high mountains and dense forests, making it a safe place to live.

Once I live in Lin Village, it will be convenient for me to find Chief Lin and come up with a solution."

Hearing Mrs. Zhou's words, County Magistrate Zhou's eyes lit up. He was about to step out of the door, but he took his foot back and then slowly paced in the bedroom...

After a while, Magistrate Zhou, who had been thinking over and over again, agreed with what Madam Zhou said: "Madam, you are right. Before you go to Linjia Village, remember to prepare a decent gift for Chief Lin. When you live in Linjia Village, you must keep a low profile and control Yan'er. Don't let him do whatever he wants..."

"Yes! Master, I'll go and clean up then."

Watching Qiao walking away, Zhou Zhanpeng felt that his late mother had a good eye for marrying him such a virtuous and intelligent wife...

-

A ray of sunlight shone from the window onto Lin Baoer's bed. Lin Baoer opened her sleepy eyes, stretched herself, and looked out the window...

Why is the sunlight so dazzling so early in the morning!

"Yuanbao, what time is it? Why hasn't anyone called me for breakfast yet? At what level do I need to upgrade my system to buy a watch? This is so inconvenient!"

"Host, at dawn, after the trading hall is upgraded to level 2, you can buy things from the primary technological civilization plane. Then you can buy a watch."

"Um, ingots, how many points do I need to upgrade the trading hall to level 2?"

"Host, 100 million points."

"What? One hundred million points? Doesn't that cost 10 taels of silver?"

Lin Baoer, who was lying on the bed with sleepy eyes, was stimulated by Yuanbao's words "100 million points" and immediately sat up and couldn't help shouting a few words.

Why did I get so upset that I started chatting with Yuanbao about watches so early in the morning...

Forget it! Don't think about it! I don't have any money now anyway.

Why is the yard so quiet?

Lin Baoer released her spiritual sense and looked around the front and back yards of the Lin family...

Except for a few little people still sleeping on the bed, everyone else is not at home.

"Yuanbao, what's going on? Why are there only me and a few kids left at home? Where did the rest of the family go?"

"Host, something happened in Lijia Village last night. Now the Lin family is busy settling the people in Lijia Village."

"Yuanbao, are there any refugees coming into Lijia Village?"

Lin Baoer, who was choosing cloth in grandma's room, heard clearly what grandpa and the others said in the main hall yesterday, and knew that Taoyuan Town had been robbed by refugees.

"Host, yes, there are hundreds of refugees in Lijia Village. Fortunately, Lijia Village was prepared, and everyone in the village escaped safely."

"Yuanbao, it seems that our Linjia Village is not safe anymore. I don't have any points now, so I can't even buy a weapon. What should I do?"

"Host, troubled times are a good time to earn money, and with money you can buy anything.

Having weapons does not mean you are safe. As long as the host has points, he can directly buy people and formation diagrams.

Buy a master who has achieved great perfection in the world of innateness, and let him protect your Linjia Village.

Buy another formation map and set up a formation for Linjia Village.

Linjia Village is protected by experts and formations, so we feel safe now!"

"Oh! Yuanbao, you are so smart, and your idea is very good, but it's a pity that I don't have any silver!"

"Host, what is the most in need out there right now? What is the best thing to earn money from? If you don't have money, go earn it!"

In the system space, Yuanbao was helpless and could only worry when he saw his little master who had no business acumen at all.

If the old master had not personally instructed me not to interfere with the young master's life, I would have moved all the gold mines in the world of Jiuzhou into the space long ago. Why would I bother to earn money...

As soon as Yuanbao thought of his old master's instructions, he immediately became depressed.

Yuanbao, you must not interfere in Xiaobao'er's life...if anything goes wrong...

"What's important now? Water, of course! Yuanbao, can we go sell water?"

Before Yuanbao could answer, Lin Baoer asked, "Yuanbao, can the water in the space... be released outside? If the water in the space can be released, how many points are needed?"

Yuanbao requires points for everything. Lin Baoer doesn't expect to release space for free, so she consciously asks how many points are needed to release space.

“Host, points are definitely required. There is no limit to how much water can be released from the tap. One cubic meter of water requires 10 points.

The water in the planting space and the breeding space has a slight spiritual energy. Mortals who drink this water for a long time can be healthy and live longer.

The host can use unlimited water in these two spaces for free.

The water in these two spaces will also collect points as long as it leaves the space.

To release the water in these two spaces, one cubic meter of water requires 12 points, and only one cubic meter can be purchased within hours.

As the trading hall is upgraded, the water and spiritual energy in these two spaces will become more and more concentrated, and the price will be different at that time."

"Uh-huh!"

The water from the tap can be released into the space in unlimited quantities, with 10 points equaling one cubic meter of water.

There is a drought right now, and water at this price is not expensive at all, and it is not limited...

As for the water in the planting and breeding space, if you have money, you can buy some for your family to drink. It's better than nothing. If you don't have money, forget it...

After listening to Yuanbao's words, Lin Baoer thought for a while and felt hungry. She was ready to get up and go out to find something to eat...

Lin Baoer got out of bed and was about to tidy up the bed when she suddenly saw herself in the dressing mirror beside the bed: her clothes were wrinkled and her hair was a mess...

It seems like I took a shower last night but haven’t changed my clothes yet…

When she thought about changing clothes, Lin Baoer took a look at the clothes she was wearing...

Not only are they wrinkled, but there are also a lot of sweat stains on the clothes!

Lin Baoer instantly felt like there were little bugs crawling on her body, and quickly found a set of clothes in the cabinet next to the dressing table...

After changing her clothes, Lin Baoer looked in the mirror again and saw her hair which looked like a chicken coop...

My mother and elder sister are not at home, so I have to comb my hair by myself...

Lin Baoer sat down in front of the dressing table, took out a small comb from the drawer, and gestured with her hands on her head...
