Li Chunhua chuckled, staring at him meaningfully and said, "Everyone in our family is capable. You know I'm a Tongsheng Master, but you still want to mess with me? Your skin has been loosened again recently. Do you want me to tighten it for you?"

Hearing Li Chunhua's words, Laizi couldn't help but shudder, perhaps because he recalled something bad.

"Well, well, so what? I didn't say anything." The beggar said with his neck stiff.

Then he yelled at Liu Xiaohua who was standing behind him, "You bitch, why are you standing here instead of taking your kids home to cook?" After saying that, he ran away without caring about his wife and kids as if there was a ghost chasing him.

Liu Xiaohua shuddered, lowered her head, and quickly caught up with her child.

After returning home and having dinner, the family sat in the main hall to discuss who would dig the well and who would continue to carry water. Li Lan and Li Chunping were definitely going to oversee the well-digging. The final decision was: Uncle Li Chunlei and Li Chunping would dig the well, while Third Uncle Li Chunsheng, Big Brother Li Hai, and Auntie would carry water. Mrs. Wang would take Li Xing to plow the fields, and Li Jiang would take Li Run and Li He to collect firewood.

Lan, who was sleeping on the kang, looked towards Zhang and heard her even breathing. She felt relieved and used her consciousness to call Xiaobao.

"Xiaobao, call Xiaobao."

"Here I am, host. My dear Xiaobao is at your service."

After hearing the system's reply, Li Lan couldn't help but chuckle. "I'm in urgent need of a water pump," he asked.

"Water pump? But you haven't started the mission yet. These are prizes that can only be obtained after the system is upgraded to level two." Xiaobao said in embarrassment.

"I can give you a drawing of a water hammer pump." Xiaobao looked at Li Lan, who had an expressionless face, and said quickly.

"You should find a way to get me a diesel water pump. We have to start digging the well tomorrow, and there is no time to make a ram pump. We also have to find raw materials. The water pump is the first step for our village to become rich. Xiaobao, although I am the host, we have to work together. This way, we can complete the task and firmly grasp the title of excellence." Li Lan advised slowly.

"But……"

"Don't say buts. This is our common cause." Li Lan interrupted it and pressed on.

Xiaobao thought for a moment and said, "Okay. But this is the second thing I asked for you. We agreed on three."

How stingy! Li Lan thought about it, couldn't help but rolled his eyes, and said, "Okay."

"Girl, get up quickly. Your fourth uncle is waiting for you to go out." Zhang patted Li Lan and said.

Li Lan opened his eyes. The room was incredibly dark. He thought about what he had to do today and quickly got dressed and got off the kang.

Outside, the sky was just beginning to brighten. Li Lan yawned and called out, "Fourth Uncle."

Li Chunhua looked at her and said with a smile, "Hurry up and wash up and eat. We have to go to the well early to dig water."

"Fourth Uncle, I want to tell you something." Li Lan walked to Li Chunping, tilted his head, and said softly.

Li Chunhua saw her mysterious look with her head tilted, laughed out loud and said hello.

The uncle and nephew sat down at the table. Li Lan pulled out a yellowed piece of paper with a rough sketch on it. By the moonlight, Li Chunhua could see a field of farmland. About a kilometer away, a well stood. Along the well ran a large canal connecting to various nearby canals.

"Fourth Uncle, the immortal gave me a water pump." Li Lan tilted his head and said softly.

"Xiao Lan, what is a water pump?" Li Chunhua frowned.

"A water pump is used to draw water out of a place. For example, look at our well. We can use a water pump to draw water out, and then send the water through various canals to the vicinity of various farmlands. This way, everyone doesn't have to carry water back and forth." Li Lan explained while pointing to the blueprint.

Li Chunhua's eyes lit up, and she sighed inwardly, "Wonderful, truly wonderful! I really want to visit this immortal world."

"Okay, I'll go over there later. Let's go and take a look at the well early. There's no need to rush. Let's talk about the pump after we dig out water. I still need to think about what to say."

"Our girl has really grown up." Li Chunhua smiled, her eyes twinkling slightly, and reached out to touch Li Lan's head.

I hid, and Li Lan dodged. "Fourth Uncle, I'm grown up now, don't touch my head anymore." After saying that, he ran away.

When they arrived at the place where they were going to dig the well, the village chief and Li Youtian were discussing how to dig deeper.

"Uncle Village Chief, Uncle Youtian." Li Chunhua and his brothers said.

"Village chief, there is Mr. Youtian." Li Lan said.

"You're here. I was just discussing with Arita how to dig this well."

"Uncle Village Chief, what happened?" Li Chunhua asked calmly.

"I just discussed with Uncle Youtian how to dig." The village chief replied.

"Uncle village chief, this morning our daughter Xiaolan told me that if we could pump the water out of the well and dig canals near the well and the farmlands, then everyone wouldn't have to carry water." Li Chunhua said with a smile.

The village chief and Li Youtian's eyes lit up as they listened. They both looked at Li Lan, their eyes full of anticipation.

Li Lan was stunned for a moment, then laughed and said nothing. Inwardly, he thought, "...Yeah, a bit like Erha."

"Then how do we pump the water up? Have we found something rare again?" The village chief always grasped the key point. He leaned towards Li Chunhua and asked softly.

Li Chunhua showed an embarrassment and said, "Uncle Village Chief, this is just Xiaolan's idea. As for the water pumping system, we still need to find out how to do it. I'll go to town tomorrow and ask the teacher, my classmates, and the merchants I know."

The village chief felt relieved when he heard this, but when he thought that there was still a chance, he nodded repeatedly in agreement.

After chatting for a while, the villagers arrived one after another, carrying their hoes. Seeing the group of people working so hard, Li Lan was also full of energy. So she decided to go deep into the mountains today.

The beggar not far away looked at the villagers working hard here, said "Pah" and spat on the ground in disdain.
