Chapter 38 Asking for Rain
"These are all from the Marquis's hands. Where did Miss Su get them from?"
"It was given to me by a friend. I said I wanted to give it to a senior whom I have always respected, so he gave it to me." Su Yuan responded with a smile.
"Gift?"
Mr. Situ pursed his lips and his expression gradually became solemn.
It seems that this friend is extraordinary since he can give away these precious jade pendants so casually.
Mr. Situ closed the box and looked at Su Yuan again.
Su Yuan met his gaze and her heart involuntarily tensed up.
"Ms. Su, these items are of great historical significance. Please preserve them carefully and try to avoid letting more people know about them. If you are interested in selling them, I would be happy to find a suitable buyer for you."
Seeing Mr. Situ's serious face, Su Yuan couldn't help feeling a little nervous.
She hurriedly avoided Mr. Situ's gaze and responded in a low voice: "Let me think about it first."
"Okay." Mr. Situ nodded slightly.
He rubbed the ring with his thumb, and after a moment's contemplation, he suddenly smiled and said, "I think these jade pendants Miss Su has are quite good. Could you give me one of them?"
Su Yuan looked up in surprise and looked at him in confusion.
Why did the topic turn to trading again?
Seeing her stunned, Mr. Situ coughed twice with a little embarrassment.
"Fifty million for one, what do you think, Miss Su?"
Fifty million!
This number startled Su Yuan suddenly, and her fingers tightened unconsciously. The pain from her fingertips made her wake up immediately.
She nodded with difficulty and agreed: "Mr. Situ is a senior whom I have always admired. Since you have such a wish, I am naturally willing to give it to you."
After getting her promise, Mr. Situ's eyes almost turned into crescents.
Unexpectedly, Mr. Situ started coughing again.
Seeing that his grandson didn't move, he looked up in dissatisfaction and glared at Situ Yefeng.
"Why are you still standing there? Pay up!"
Situ Yefeng was amused and asked helplessly, "You buy things yourself and let me pay for it?"
"This is a good opportunity for you to show your filial piety, don't delay." Mr. Situ urged as a matter of course.
Su Yuan was surprised to find that the private interaction between the grandfather and grandson was like this, and she bit her lip to hold back her laughter.
Seeing this, Situ Yefeng snorted and transferred the money very reluctantly.
Mr. Situ put away the jade pendant with satisfaction and warmly invited Su Yuan: "Xiao Yuan, come and visit me when you have time. I have many treasures to show you. Do you remember the white marble folding fan that your grandfather gave me? It's exquisite."
"Okay, I'll definitely go." Su Yuan agreed with a smile, and was also curious about the things belonging to her grandfather.
Before leaving, Situ Yefeng left a meaningful sentence:
"Cooperating with you, Miss Su, in antique trading is definitely a business where you can reap the benefits without any effort."
The crowd dispersed and the clock quietly pointed to two o'clock in the afternoon.
Lunch lost its appeal, and Su Yuan walked towards the back garden alone.
The snacks and packaging that I promised to prepare for Xiao Yanheng are almost finished, and it's time to arrange for delivery.
When she arrived at the pond, Su Yuan was stunned.
The water level in the pond dropped sharply, and the backs of several fish were exposed above the water surface, creating an unusual scene.
How is this going?
Su Yuan quickly opened the APP to check.
Dear users, Dawei is experiencing a drought rarely seen in a century. If no action is taken soon, the space-time channel may be closed.
"How can we solve this problem?" Su Yuan asked anxiously.
The APP immediately provides operation instructions.
……
The capital of the great Wei state.
Xiao Yanheng stood on the city wall, looking expressionlessly at the people busy building altars and praying for the arrival of autumn rain.
Long Fei hurried over and didn't have time to salute. He looked at him anxiously.
"Your Majesty, Zhang Long declared outside the city gate that we have lost the protection of the gods. Many people believed it, and some even conspired to open the gate for them."
"Imprison the person who spread the rumors, and at the same time thoroughly investigate Zhang Long's accomplices in the city." Xiao Yanheng ordered.
"but……"
Long Fei looked troubled and turned his gaze to the dry river.
Having cut off contact with the fairyland and facing an unprecedented drought, where is the way forward?
Xiao Yanheng had never expected that the drought would become so severe after only a few weeks of no rain.
The river upstream dried up, and the county magistrate was afraid of getting into trouble, so he slipped away early, causing them to fail to notice it in time and have no response plan.
Now, the rebel camp outside the city is clearly visible, like an insurmountable chasm.
Is it true that the fate of the Great Wei will be destroyed in my hands?
"How do we solve the drinking water problem in the army?" he asked in a deep voice.
Long Fei shook his head, frowning, and was filled with worry: "How can it be that easy? Although the Ministry of Industry has made great efforts to dig wells, not a drop of water has come out. The underground water source may have dried up."
"in this case……"
Xiao Yanheng's eyes flickered, as if he was struggling with a decision deep in his heart.
Seeing this, Long Fei suddenly knelt on the ground: "Your Majesty, please think twice. Zhang Long is cruel and ruthless. You must not act rashly."
Xiao Yanheng smiled with authority: "The Great Wei will never perish at my hands. Pass on my order. I will personally lead the army to a decisive battle with the rebels, recapture the well outside the city, and avenge our previous humiliation!"
Upon hearing this, Long Fei looked up in surprise. Could it be that His Majesty really wanted to confront Zhang Long head-on?
He worriedly advised: "Your Majesty, no, we will lead the charge, you just need to wait for good news in the palace."
"If I can't eliminate Zhang Long myself, how can I sit in peace in the palace? Send the order immediately, a surprise attack tonight at midnight!"
Xiao Yanheng's body was as strong as a pine tree, emitting an overwhelming majesty that Long Fei could hardly bear.
Seeing that His Majesty had made up his mind, he resolutely puffed out his chest and said in a loud voice: "As ordered, I will act immediately!"
Long Fei took the order and strode towards the military camp.
After reading the instructions, Su Yuan muttered to himself, how is this different from playing games?
If you are short of water, you have to replenish it, and you also have to ensure that Xiao Yanheng is safe and sound. It is simply a cultivation game.
However, once he mastered the rules, Su Yuan immediately came up with a countermeasure.
She connected the garden hose, placed one end in the fish pond, turned on the faucet, and waited for the changes.
Two hours passed in a flash, and the fish pond was still empty. She rubbed her eyes in disbelief.
Why is there so much water?
Recalling that the stone he had thrown in earlier was nowhere to be found, Su Yuan became suspicious.
She didn't bother about it anymore, just let the water flow and went back to her room to settle the accounts.
Yang Sheng walked in and looked at Su Yuan with a puzzled look.
"Aren't you going to turn off the faucet?"
"Hmm?" Su Yuan looked up blankly.
Yang Sheng was even more surprised: "The water keeps flowing, doesn't Miss Su intend to intervene?"
"Well..."
She suddenly felt that this behavior was quite unusual and indeed difficult to explain.
"My grandfather mentioned that there's abundant groundwater here. I'm just curious how long the water will last, and I plan to have someone repair it. If you don't have other plans in the near future, you don't need to come."
Yang Sheng frowned, and there was a hint of inquiry in his eyes.
This Su Yuan is different today.
Noticing the other person's gaze, Su Yuan managed to calm herself down: "I'm looking for someone to renovate the garden. You should take a week off."
"Okay." Yang Sheng responded.
Without any other instructions, Yang Sheng immediately went back to his room to pack up and quickly left the villa.
Su Yuan breathed a sigh of relief and walked into the garden again.
