I rely on infrastructure systems to build a prosperous village

"Xiaobao, call Xiaobao."

Hearing Li Lan's call, Xiao Bao said happily: "Here I am, my dear host."

"Xiaobao, I want landslide protection nets and cement. Can the system provide them?"

"This……"

"What's wrong? Are you feeling a little embarrassed?" Li Lan raised his eyebrows.

"It's not difficult. You can get it if you want, but you'll have to exchange something for it."

"How to change?"

"Exchange it with your merit points."

"Merit points? How many merit points do I have now?"

"We have completed three tasks in total, but only everyone in Li Village can enjoy the final benefit. There are currently 312 people in Li Village, and each person has a merit value of 100, so the host's total merit value is:."

Li Lan listened attentively, and internally complained: "You bastard system, why are you saying this now?"

"Host, it's not that I'm telling you this just now. It was during the last meeting that the Lord God System redefined the rules. I just haven't had time to tell you yet." Xiao Bao said aggrievedly.

After hearing its answer, Li Lan was too lazy to waste words and asked directly: "Are these merit points enough to buy what I want?"

"Wait a minute, let me take a look."

After a while.

"Host, I see the price tag for the mountain protection net system is: Merit Points, and the price tag for cement is: Merit Points."

After hearing the price, Li Lan's eyes widened and he cursed, "Fuck, it's so expensive! These merit points are so worthless. You're acting like capitalists. Isn't this blatant exploitation of the peasant class?"

Xiaobao: "..."

A moment of silence.

"Host, you can buy on credit." Xiaobao said cautiously.

Li Lan rolled her eyes and really wanted to quit. She took a few deep breaths to calm herself down.

"How much merit can I get from this?"

"Several, host. Once you buy these two items, they belong to you. You can withdraw any amount at any time."

Hearing this, Li Lan felt much more comfortable. He thought: These merit points exchange is quite worthwhile.

He sighed instead, feeling rather miserable. Not only had he lost all the merit he had worked so hard to accumulate, but he was even in debt. Oh, this Lord God System was truly a financial expert.

Thinking of this, she rolled her eyes and said coldly, "Alright. But the prerequisite is that you must ensure that your weather forecast is accurate. If after five days, there are no four to five days of heavy rain, and the rainfall is not high, you must return my merit points. Because this is due to your mistake."

After saying that, I couldn't help but feel a little proud in my heart: You are the only ones who can calculate. I have been working in the financial industry for ten years, and it's not for nothing.

"This... Host, wait a moment, I'll consult the Lord God System."

After a while.

"Host, the main god system has agreed. But the main god system requires us to help several surrounding villages escape this flood disaster." Xiaobao's voice became weaker and weaker towards the end.

Li Lan, who was feeling proud, couldn't help but touch his face. It really hurt.

She closed her eyes, took several deep breaths, and said through gritted teeth, "Okay, but I have one request. Sell the things to me based on my current merit points. Otherwise, I'll quit."

After hearing Li Lan's words, Xiao Bao hurriedly said: "Host, don't be angry, don't worry, I will go and talk to the main god system now."

"Damn it! This is just too much. You really think I'm easy to manipulate. Worst case scenario, I'll just quit." Li Lan said viciously inwardly.

"Host, host, the main god system agreed." Xiaobao shouted excitedly.

Li Lan rolled his eyes and said, "Haha, you're just afraid of losing your life."

"Now give me a map of the villages I'm responsible for during this flood."

"Okay, host. Please wait."

Soon, a scroll appeared in Li Lan's hand. She opened it and took a closer look. The village, mountains, rivers, and even every road were clearly visible.

The more he looked at it, the brighter his eyes became, and he praised in his heart: "Xiaobao, this map is very clear."

"Of course, this is an ultra-high-definition image I obtained using satellites, and then I used AI to generate a painting pattern." Xiaobao said proudly.

Hearing its arrogant tone, Li Lan chuckled and praised it generously.

She lowered her head and carefully examined the map in her hand. Lijia Village was the innermost, surrounded by mountains on three sides. To the lower left was Wangjia Village, with a stream running through it at the foot of the mountain behind it to the north. It and Chenjia Village were in a straight line, sharing a stream. Opposite it was Liujiawan, which bordered the Chu River, a river that met the Qin River. Because it was located at a bend in the Chu River, it was named Liujiawan.

"Tsk tsk, this Liujiawan is quite difficult to deal with." After looking at the map, Li Lan frowned and sighed.

She put away the map, stood there thinking for a long time, sighed softly, and murmured: This is really a bit tricky.

Thinking of this, he walked towards the village chief's house.

"Village chief, are you at home?" Li Lan shouted towards the yard.

"Huh? Miss Lan?" the village chief asked in surprise.

Hearing the village chief's voice coming from behind her, she quickly turned around, walked up to the village chief and said, "Village chief, I have something to tell you."

The village chief looked at her and said, "Come on, follow me into the house."

After saying that, he walked in first with his hands behind his back.

The two sat down in the main room. Li Lan took out the map from his arms and spread it out on the table.

The village chief was so surprised by the detailed map that he stood up from his seat and pointed at the map on the table, unable to utter a word for a long time.

Seeing his astonishment at the map, Li Lan didn't explain and said directly, "Village Chief, let me cut to the chase. I just walked around our village and found that the soil in some places at the foot of the mountain is slightly moist. I have a feeling it will rain in a few days."

As soon as she finished speaking, the village chief, who was about to sit down, froze in disbelief, "What?"

"Yes, it's just as the village chief heard."

"Okay, that's great." After receiving her affirmative answer, the village chief sat down on the stool and choked up.

Li Lan saw his slightly red eyes, feeling uncomfortable, but also very touched and relieved. From the beginning until now, no matter what she said or did, the old man never asked any more questions and chose to believe her without hesitation.

She couldn't help but sigh, thought for a moment, and said seriously, "Village Chief, it's going to rain. But as our folks say, after a severe drought there will be a major disaster."

"This, but...what should we do, girl Lan?" The village chief stood up in panic and said anxiously.

Li Lan gave the village chief a deep look, beckoned him to sit down, and said, "Village Chief, I've already come up with a plan for our village. But as the saying goes, saving a life is better than building a seven-level Buddha butcher, so I'd like to warn a few nearby villages. Do you think this is feasible?"

After hearing her words, the village chief frowned and thought for a moment, then said in a deep voice, "That's possible. I have some friendships with the village chiefs of these villages, and they are all excellent people."

After a pause, he looked at Li Lan deeply and continued, "But how can we make them believe what you say?"

Li Lan drummed his fingers on the table, pondered for a moment, and said with a smile, "Then come up with something that will convince them. Village Chief, time is running out. Please find someone to call the heads of several villages over to take a look at our rice seedlings, wells, and ram pumps."

As soon as she finished speaking, the village chief's eyes became brighter and he said happily, "Okay."

In the mid-afternoon, several village chiefs appeared at the intersection of the road leading to the farmland in Lijia Village. They appeared to be about the same age, in their fifties, all of them tall and thin. They wore their hair in buns, had long beards, and wore coarse linen clothes and straw sandals. Their skin was dark from years of hard work.

Looking at the green in front of them, they all stood there in a daze, with shock on their faces.

"This, this, this..."

Village chief Wang of Wangjia Village couldn't help but run to a farmland excitedly. He looked at the canal on the ridge not far away and froze in place.

The few people who followed behind were also stunned when they saw the scene.

"Oh my God. Old man Li, how did you do this?" Village chief Chen of Chenjia Village looked at Li Hongwu (village chief of Lijia Village) in amazement.

Village chief Liu from Liujiawan did not say anything, but the shocked expression on his face was self-evident.

Seeing their expressions, the village chief smiled and said proudly, "Oh, old friends, our village is indebted to Miss Lan."

He said and pointed at Li Lan beside him.

When they heard this, they looked in the direction of his hand and were even more surprised to find that it was a girl of about ten years old.

"Hello, grandpas." Li Lan shouted to them with a smile.

The few people who reacted nodded in agreement.

"Old friends, let's go. Let's go and see the well dug in our village and the water hammer pump invented by Lan Yatou." After saying this with a smile, he walked over there with his hands behind his back.
