After Jiang Chuyue finished speaking, she understood what Xiao Yihao meant, "Are you saying that they will suspect there is a tunnel under the warehouse?"

"Yes." Xiao Yihao nodded, "What we need to do now is to prove that this tunnel really exists. This way, even if they discover something unusual in the future and find out the existence of the tunnel, they won't be able to suspect you."

What we need to do now is to hide the secret of Jiang Chuyue.

However, the matter of digging the tunnel cannot be known to too many people.

"Then what do you plan to do?" When Jiang Chuyue heard Xiao Yihao's words, she knew that he already had a plan.

"I will lead my brothers to secretly dig tunnels, but you have to find a reasonable explanation for where these people went, so that others will not notice that something is wrong."

Xiao Yihao had already thought about the arrangements for the future. "Don't worry about my men. They don't know much about the grain store and won't ask too many questions. Naturally, no one will suspect anything at that time."

Jiang Chuyue nodded, and felt that Xiao Yihao's move was indeed the best choice at the moment, but, "But where does the tunnel lead to?"

"Since we are going to dig a tunnel, it would be best if it leads in all directions. Even if something goes wrong, our people can take shelter in the tunnel. As for the exit, I have thought about it. It would be best to open it at the foot of the mountain and a certain distance away from the warehouse to ensure that the county magistrate will not find anything unusual."

Seeing that Xiao Yihao already had an idea and even a plan, Jiang Chuyue confidently handed the matter over to Xiao Yihao.

In order to complete the task as quickly as possible, Xiao Yihao and a team of brothers sneaked into the warehouse that night and began to dig a tunnel. Jiang Chuyue also arranged for people to place dry food and water in the warehouse in advance under the pretext of transporting food.

As for the whereabouts of Xiao Yihao and his team, it was announced to the public that they were going up the mountain to find more water sources.

No one doubted this, but when the news reached Mo Jingchun's ears, he always felt as if something was wrong.

He also made a special trip to find Jiang Chuyue.

"Chu Yue, didn't you find a water source some time ago? Why do you have to go up the mountain to look for a water source?" In Mo Jingchun's impression, Jiang Chu Yue is not a person who does things halfway.

Since she went to look for water herself, she would not stop until she found enough water for farming and the needs of the people at the foot of the mountain.

Instead of searching halfway before sending people to continue looking up the mountain.

"There are many wild animals using the water source, and more and more land is being reclaimed at the foot of the mountain. I'm afraid that the little water there won't be enough. To be on the safe side, I asked Yihao to take people up the mountain to find a water source."

Jiang Chuyue didn't want to hide it from Mo Jingchun, but the existence of the space did provide an extra layer of protection the fewer people who knew about it.

Jiang Chuyue had already taken a huge risk by choosing to let Xiao Yihao know.

Now that we can keep this secret secret, naturally the fewer people who know about it the better.

Mo Jingchun nodded thoughtfully. Although he felt that there was something wrong, seeing that Jiang Chuyue had explained it this way, Mo Jingchun did not ask any further questions.

There are some things that you don't have to understand clearly, it's enough to know the general idea.

Because Xiao Yihao led the team to start digging tunnels, Jiang Chuyue had fewer people she trusted and could use. In order to ensure the smooth reclamation of wasteland, Jiang Chuyue almost lived in the fields every day.

Not only do we have to keep an eye on the progress of reclamation, but we also have to pay attention to the people's diet and even their physical condition.

For this, Jiang Chuyue quickly invited doctors from the town and county.

Fortunately, although some people occasionally suffered from heatstroke due to the drought and hot weather, the problem was not serious and those who received timely treatment recovered quickly.

Even though there were no major mistakes, Jiang Chuyue still lost a lot of weight because of this difficult task.

When Xiao Yihao and his men returned after completing the task of digging the tunnel, he saw Jiang Chuyue again and found that she had become so thin that only a layer of skin was left.

"How long has it been since you had a good meal?" Xiao Yihao subconsciously squinted his eyes when he saw the sun.

I hadn't seen the sun for so many days underground, so I felt a little uncomfortable when I suddenly saw the light.

"I ate well, I was just too busy." Seeing that Xiao Yihao still refused to believe it, Jiang Chuyue grabbed his hand and pressed it on her arm. Feeling the taut muscles under her skin, Xiao Yihao finally believed it a little.

But when he saw Jiang Chuyue's thin body, he couldn't help but feel distressed, "You have to take good care of yourself these few days. Even if you are busy, you have to take care of yourself. Otherwise, if you are exhausted, you will not be able to accomplish anything."

Jiang Chuyue knew that what Xiao Yihao said made sense, but once she started to get busy, she couldn't care less about all these things.

I even wanted to do everything myself, for fear of making the slightest mistake.

"You don't know that the county magistrate and Shuiyun Pavilion are keeping an eye on us. If anything goes wrong, I'm afraid they will use it to make a fuss."

Jiang Chuyue's worries were not unreasonable. Although they had a cooperative relationship with Shuiyun Pavilion, this cooperation was not pleasant.

If Shuiyun Pavilion had no choice but to do so, it would not have cooperated with Jiang Chuyue.

The owners of the grain shop were kidnapped because they thought they knew where Jiang Chuyue got so much grain from. However, they never expected that they had been with Jiang Chuyue for so long and yet they knew nothing.

The county magistrate and Liu Mo, who had gained nothing, had to cooperate with Jiang Chuyue after all the planning.

Jiang Chuyue laughed when she thought of how they were holding their breath.

"Why are you so silly and happy every day?" When Xiao Yihao saw Jiang Chuyue's silly look, a smile couldn't help but appear in his eyes.

"I'm not laughing foolishly. I just feel happy when I think about how both Mr. Liu and the county magistrate suffered setbacks at my hands." Jiang Chuyue tilted her head back with a cocky attitude, which amused Xiao Yihao.

But as they laughed, they both fell silent again.

"Have you heard about the war outside?" Since leaving Shuiyun Pavilion, they have been very slow in synchronizing with the news outside.

Jiang Chuyue could only get some information from the refugees who fled, but the information these refugees knew was only from several days ago or even a month ago.

"I heard that the two princes in the south have started fighting, but the outcome is still unclear. Prince Yu in the north has not made any moves." Jiang Chuyue synchronized the recent news with Xiao Yihao.
