A peasant girl traveled through time and space, and she became prosperous

Chapter 348 Dispelling Doubts and Establishing Trust

The words "deserved" almost brought tears to her eyes; he had finally seen her goodness.

Seeing her like that, Young Master Wang felt a pang of pity and hurriedly left.

Wen Meijiu and he had discussed it beforehand; someone needed to lure the group of soldiers over before her plan could be implemented.

And this person is none other than Yiran.

"You have to believe that she would do anything for you."

"Maybe you're the only one who thinks she's innocent and naive."

"If you don't believe me, we can bet she'll definitely go."

“If she doesn’t go, I’ll do whatever you say from now on.”

These were the words Wen Meijiu said to him at the time.

At that moment, he felt a mix of emotions.

As Wen Meijiu had predicted, they did indeed go, and the soldiers successfully seized Wen Meijiu's water source. Things were progressing exactly as she had planned.

It's pitiful that she's become someone else's pawn without even realizing it. Whether she's clever or foolish is hard to say.

The thought of being someone who knew the truth made him wonder if he was a bad person.

Giving money is really nothing; it's her knowing that makes her upset.

If it were him, he would really feel humiliated.

The next morning, when Wen Meijiu was about to leave, the soldiers came looking for her again.

"Fairy, have mercy! Please talk to Guanyin Bodhisattva and leave us a way to survive. Could you please make sure the water source keeps flowing?"

Faced with the facts, even the leading officers and soldiers had to believe that what Wen Meijiu said was true; she had received a call from Guanyin Bodhisattva, which was why she dug out the water source.

Seeing his sincere attitude, Wen Meijiu didn't make things difficult for him.

"It's not that it's impossible, but you must let Guanyin Bodhisattva see your sincerity."

You should take the villagers to that water source to atone for their sins, kneel and worship. No one in the village should be missing, including the children.

As long as one is sincere and does not inflate water prices, Guanyin Bodhisattva, with her great compassion, should grant the request.

"No problem, no problem."

Cutting off someone's livelihood is like killing their parents. Besides, the disaster victims passing by need someone to provide water. As long as the price is right, there's no need to make things difficult for them.

There was a solution to the problem, and the leading officer felt it was best to do it as soon as possible. Otherwise, he was unsure what to do if it didn't work and Wen Meijiu left.

Because of this, the leading officer said he would treat them well and even earnestly asked them to stay a little longer before leaving.

Helpless, Wen Meijiu had to discuss with the village chief and ask the villagers to wait until noon before leaving.

The villagers made money here, sold all the water they had in the village, and wanted to sell it to disaster victims passing by. No matter how much, it was all income.

In terms of price, Wenmei wine was priced at fifty coins. Although they had some complaints, seeing the fate of the soldiers and villagers, they all accepted the offer and stopped while they were ahead.

Thus, an absurd and laughable scene unfolded around the water source on the east side of the bridge.

On one side were disaster victims queuing up to buy water, and on the other side were villagers and soldiers kneeling and worshipping, bringing the best food from their homes.

"what are they doing?"

"I heard that this water was created by Guanyin Bodhisattva, so people must be worshipping Guanyin Bodhisattva."

"They look weird, almost like we are, silly-looking, hehe."

The disaster victims in line whispered among themselves as they watched the villagers and soldiers.

"Father, they're talking badly about us."

A village child overheard this and immediately told on him.

"Shut up, don't disturb Guanyin Bodhisattva, this is a great disrespect."

**

While everyone was busy, Wen Meijiu, along with Ate and a few others, quickly slipped into the courtyard behind the village's land temple.

Art ordered a few people to move away the debris from the explosion, revealing the original state of the well.

Besides the well platform being blackened and messy from the blast, digging down another half meter, one found an irregularly shaped round stone blocking the well opening.

With this round stone blocking the way, the well water below was not contaminated by the flying debris and explosives, and remained as it was.

The round stone was held in place by six sturdy wooden wedges nailed to the well wall; otherwise, it would have fallen in long ago.

Art and his companions had spent a lot of effort finding this round stone, and now they had to go through the trouble of moving it, so they were somewhat resentful.

"Girl, if you ask me, just block it up completely, why bother with all this trouble?"

As Wen Meijiu helped tie the rope to the rocks below, she laughed and said:

"They may not be good people, but we're not doing this for them. We're just trying to make our consciences clear. After all, those disaster victims still need us."

"If you ask me, you're overthinking things. Who cares about them? Just focus on doing your best."

Art didn't genuinely think Wen Meijiu was meddling; he just felt it was unnecessary. Seeing Wen Meijiu struggling to tie herself up, he reached out to help.

"Actually, it's also for my own good. I don't know why, but when I do something that benefits everyone and doesn't harm my own interests, I feel very happy, even blissful."

Brother, do you think I'm a little silly? Haha.

With Art's help, the rope was tied, and Wen Meijiu, Art, and the others pulled together, quickly freeing the stone.

After patting herself down, Wen Meijiu thought about it seriously for a moment, then smiled and said this to Ate.

"Yes, a little, but I like it very much."

Art is good at saying nice things, so Wen Meijiu just laughs it off and doesn't take it seriously.

They threw the damaged well platform and stones to the foot of the mountain behind the yard, cleaned up the area around the water inlet, and then quietly withdrew.

When she left, Wen Meijiu lied and said that she had left something behind. She would go back and move the lost item into her spatial storage to prevent future troubles, since Guanyin Bodhisattva does things without leaving a trace.

Back at the water source, the villagers' and soldiers' worship activities were not yet over. Mainly because Wen Meijiu did not speak, they dared not leave, fearing that it would be ineffective.

"There's no water left, we can't sell anything, what are we going to do? I haven't gotten any water yet!"

Suddenly, the people in front of the line started shouting, and the people behind them also became restless, their voices growing louder and louder.

Upon hearing this, the leading officer jumped to his feet, squinted at the direction of the water source, and became suspicious.

Could it be that the water in this source is sometimes there and sometimes not, and that Wen Meijiu was just lucky, or that she really has supernatural powers?

Leaving everyone behind, the leading soldier rushed to the edge of the water pit.

The water in the puddle had indeed become visibly still; after several buckets of water were poured in, it quickly emptied.

"What should we do? Please give us a refund!"

Some disaster victims began to worry, fearing that they would lose both money and water, since this had happened before.

"Refund, refund!"

A bunch of people behind them started shouting.

Suddenly, the leading soldier seemed to snap out of his daze and joined the group of disaster victims in shouting:

"Refund, refund!"

The soldiers and villagers behind them were unaware of the situation, and they all knelt down and looked up, not knowing what to do.

Wen Meijiu calmly walked ashore, stood on high ground, and shouted loudly from above:

"The money will definitely be refunded. Please be patient and let me explain."

If you want a refund, go to the main street and find your seller; you won't lose a single penny.

Those who want water can wait a moment.

"You big liar! What do you mean by 'wait a moment'? You're just looking for a chance to run away, aren't you?"

Taking advantage of the high spirits of the disaster victims, the leading officer raised his voice and spoke his true feelings, even harboring malicious intent towards Wen Meijiu for teasing him.
