"Does the village chief have any concerns?" Jiang Chuyue took the initiative to break the silence.

Shen Rong hesitated to speak. Seeing the impatience on Jiang Chuyue's brow, he finally spoke, "Chuyue, there is not much spring water left in the mountain now. There are too many places in the village that use water. Even if you divert the water down now, there may not be any water left."

The climate is becoming increasingly drier and mountain spring water is gradually drying up. Shen Rong's concerns are not unfounded.

Jiang Chuyue pondered for a moment, but still refused to give up on this matter. "Since there is not much spring water found so far, let's look for other spring water and bring down a few of them. This way, we can survive this period of time."

When the drought becomes more severe, it may develop into a drought disaster. What Jiang Chuyue can do now is to help everyone fight against the dry weather. There is not much water now, so we must not waste it.

The crops and medicinal herbs in the fields use too much water, so Jiang Chuyue has made a decision: to introduce drip irrigation technology, which can save both water and labor.

Villagers no longer have to go up the mountain to fetch water every day. This will solve the water problem and make everyone's life better.

In just a few days, there were several cases of severe heatstroke in Wanshan Village. Fortunately, Jiang Chuyue and Doctor Zhou were in charge of the village, which saved their lives.

Seeing that Jiang Chuyue had made up her mind, Shen Rong stopped trying to persuade her and immediately took Shen Da and Shen Er to the mountain to find spring water. Jiang Chuyue returned to the space to make the equipment needed for drip irrigation technology. There were no plastic pipes in the space. When Jiang Chuyue was worrying, Aunt Zhang mentioned a bamboo pole. Jiang Chuyue then remembered that she was too picky and did not think of using the existing resources here.

Jiang Chuyue led people to cut a lot of bamboo poles. She first poked open all the bamboo joints to facilitate the flow of water in the bamboo poles. Then she chiseled a small hole about every ten centimeters on the bamboo pole so that water could flow out from the small hole later.

After everything was ready, Jiang Chuyue brought water from her home and conducted experiments using the crude drip irrigation facilities. After confirming that it was feasible, Jiang Chuyue immediately summoned all the people in Wanshan Village and taught them in detail how to make a simple version of the drip irrigation equipment.

Everything was ready, but Shen Rong and others who went up the mountain to look for water found nothing for several days in a row, and saw that the amount of water in the mountain spring they found was getting less and less.

Jiang Chuyue couldn't sit still, so she took Wu Gang and a few others to the mountain to look for water. Fortunately, hard work pays off. After three days of searching for water, Jiang Chuyue successfully found the underground river with the help of the equipment in the space.

After opening a passage, Jiang Chuyue led all the villagers of Wanshan Village and used bamboo to make a device similar to a water pipe bit by bit, which brought down the underground river and the mountain spring water that was discovered later.

The water flows down the mountain through the bamboo poles and will not be directly evaporated by the scorching sun, which greatly reduces water consumption.

In order to avoid excessive evaporation of water, Jiang Chuyue diverted part of the water into a well, and the rest was directly drip-irrigated on the dry land through simple drip irrigation equipment.

In order to avoid excessive water loss due to drip irrigation, Jiang Chuyue also specially developed a valve to shut down the operation of the drip irrigation system.

After everything was done, the villagers of Wanshan Village could finally breathe a sigh of relief.

"Tell me, how did Sister Jiang come up with this idea?" Aunt Wang and Aunt Zhang talked about this in private.

"Sister Jiang is very smart. We just need to follow her and do whatever she tells us to do." Aunt Zhang laughed and perfunctorily replied. They didn't know where Jiang Chuyue got so many ideas from, but Jiang Chuyue's ideas were indeed useful and did make their lives a lot better.

Such conversations happened from time to time in Wanshan Village, but no one mentioned them to Jiang Chuyue, as she was focused on the drip irrigation system.

After the drip irrigation system was put into use, Jiang Chuyue was still worried and personally watched it for several days. After confirming that water waste was greatly reduced and the growth of crops and medicinal herbs in the fields was normal, he finally felt relieved.

"Village chief, you need to pay more attention to the follow-up maintenance of the drip irrigation system. Once there is a problem, you must deal with it and replace the bamboo in time." Jiang Chuyue knew that although the bamboo was still strong, it would not last long under the scorching weather.

However, the subsequent maintenance and other matters could not be entirely left to Jiang Chuyue alone. Jiang Chuyue informed Shen Rong of all the precautions and handling methods, and asked him to find a suitable person to monitor the drip irrigation system.

After explaining all this, Jiang Chuyue thought about it.

In order to make the crops and medicinal herbs grow well, she would go to the spring every once in a while and pour the spiritual spring water in the space into the spring. In this way, the crops and medicinal herbs could grow well, and it would also be good for the health of the villagers in Wanshan Village.

After the drip irrigation system was implemented in Wanshan Village for some time and confirmed to have no problems, Jiang Chuyue did not rest and immediately started to promote the drip irrigation system. With the promotion of the drip irrigation system, the lives of the people in the nearby villages finally had a little hope.

After finishing all this, Jiang Chuyue finally had time to go to the grain shop to check the accounts in person. After confirming that several grain shop owners in the county were doing business honestly, Jiang Chuyue was still worried.

She knew clearly that the two grain shops in the town and the county had been in competition with each other and had disliked each other, so she simply took advantage of this and let them supervise each other. Once they found problems with each other, they could inform Jiang Chuyue and they could also get a large sum of silver as a reward.

After this move was made, both sides became even more displeased with each other. They monitored and warned each other, but nothing serious happened.

Because Jiang Chuyue provided sufficient food every day, their business was getting better and better.

The person in charge of purchasing grain at Shuiyun Pavilion had tricked Jiang Chuyue in the past, so after cooperating with Manager Zhang several times, he secretly proposed cooperation with the grain shop in the county.

However, as soon as he contacted the owner of the county grain store, the news was delivered to Jiang Chuyue.

Jiang Chuyue held the message in her hand, hesitated for a moment, and decided to temporarily suppress the message so as not to let Xiao Yihao worry about it.

"It's been so long, and I still don't know what the situation is like inside Shuiyun Pavilion?" Jiang Chuyue muttered to herself.

But I didn't expect that someone would respond to my casual words.

"The situation in Shuiyun Pavilion is relatively stable."

Jiang Chuyue turned her head and saw that it was indeed Xiao Yihao who came back.

"Why did you come back at this time?" The smile on Jiang Chuyue's face deepened.

Xiao Yihao climbed through the window and entered the room.
