Chapter 208 Discovering New Features
Wen Qiao saw that something was wrong and immediately called Jiang Lili.
Jiang Lili just sent the blueprints to three escorts and asked them to find the craftsmen introduced by Zhang Xin to carry out the tasks.
Not long after the escorts left, Jiang Lili received a video call from Wen Qiao. She answered it immediately, thinking it must be an emergency.
In order to conceal her presence, Wen Qiao spoke in a low voice, but it was too noisy around her and Jiang Lili couldn't hear what she was saying.
Seeing the commotion over there, Jiang Lili asked hurriedly: [What happened? Is there a fight going on over there? What kind of weapons do you need?]
Jiang Lili saw a speaker icon on the video call interface between her and Wen Qiao. She wanted to turn up the volume so that she could hear clearly what the people around Wen Qiao were saying.
So the speaker icon was turned on, and Wen Qiao's voice became louder. Jiang Lili heard Wen Qiao say: [Someone wants to steal the well! ]
Wen Qiao was about to continue speaking when there was a knock on the door outside Jiang Lili's room. Wen Qiao subconsciously stopped talking. Jiang Lili also turned off the speaker out of caution. After turning on the speaker just now, Jiang Lili had a feeling that Wen Qiao's voice was echoing in this room.
After the speaker icon was turned off, the room became noticeably quieter.
He only heard the voice of the person outside the room saying: It was the voice of the maid who brought him hot water yesterday and the evening: "Manager Jiang, I'm here to bring you breakfast!"
Jiang Lili shouted outside: "Come in!"
The maid came with a three-layer food box, and she placed the bowls and dishes in the box one by one on the pear wood table in the wing room.
The breakfast was very rich, with boat porridge, crab roe buns... Jiang Lili thought that Wen Qiao hadn't had breakfast yet, so she planned to feed Wen Qiao some after the maid left.
Unexpectedly, after the maid had arranged the dishes, she asked with a puzzled look on her face: "Manager Jiang, I heard you mention a well just before I came in. Are you looking for water from a well? You can just ask the innkeepers to do these things. You don't have to go there yourself."
"The wells here are very deep. It would be terrible if you fell in."
Jiang Lili was stunned. She didn't say the word "well" just now. Could it be that this maid just heard the last words Wen Qiao said?
Jiang Lili looked calm as usual and said to the maid, "Okay, thank you for your help."
Her brain was working quickly as she added, "I just heard that the water from your wells is generally very sweet. I'm just curious."
The maid understood and smiled softly, "Yes, our Haizhou Island has many mountains, trees and rivers. The water under the ground is especially sweet, and it is very convenient to dig wells, so there is no shortage of drinking water. We have two wells in our inn!"
She told Jiang Lili the location of the two wells in the inn and left with the food box.
After the maid left, Jiang Lili breathed a sigh of relief.
Are there any instructions for using this group chat interface? You have to explore the functions on your own. The first time I sent a red envelope, I cheated a pair of geese, and I almost cheated myself the second time.
Wen Qiao listened to the conversation between Jiang Lili and the maid and guessed what happened: "Did the maid hear us talking?"
That’s not right. Normally, the voice messages and video sounds from their chats only ring in the minds of group members.
Jiang Lili told Wen Qiao about the changes that had just been made to the speaker function.
[@温翘: So, turning on the speaker function is equivalent to turning on the video and voice playback, and outsiders can also hear the sound of our chat? ]
Jiang Lili felt that the function of the speaker was just as Wen Qiao described.
Wen Qiao's eyes flashed with contemplation, and while she was thinking, a group of people had already galloped to the only well with water in the tribe.
At the same time, many people exclaimed: "The Lord of God is here!"
The man called the God's Messenger wore a golden mask inlaid with agate gems and a black riding suit made of silk.
His dress was in stark contrast to the tattered and linen-clad tribesmen in the tribe.
The horse he rode looked like a BMW, with smooth and clean black fur and a hint of white on its head, which looked like clouds, making people think of the phrase "dark clouds chasing the moon".
This horse is in high spirits and you can tell at first glance that it has been carefully raised.
Wen Qiao didn't expect that under such a severe drought, there were still people who could live so well.
Jiang Lili saw the envoy of God riding a horse and exclaimed: "Sister Qiao, this envoy of God's mask and horse are so beautiful."
Wen Qiao replied domineeringly: [Just wait, I’ll take you there. ]
The messenger saw that there was no one left to guard the well. He then saw that the five guards had been tied up. He flew into a rage, "How dare you!"
"Our northern tribe wants to requisition this well, and you dare to resist!"
The messenger of God was riding his horse and approaching the tribesmen. He looked down at the tribe, which only had the elderly, the weak, women and children left.
The tribal chiefs used to respect the northern tribes very much. Even though these messengers of God acted a little overbearingly in their daily lives, they could accept it. After all, they were messengers of the shepherd god, different from mortals like them.
But this time, due to the severe drought, the other side plundered them again and again, captured able-bodied men, and snatched water sources, without caring about the lives of their tribal people. Many people could no longer blindly worship the northern tribes.
The chief stood in front of the well and argued: "The water in this well is saved by all our tribe for the children to drink."
"Your northern tribe has occupied our ponds and lakes, and now you don't even have a well left for us? This is really too much!"
The chief who protects the tribe is like an angry lioness and is very intimidating.
The messenger of God was startled by the chieftain. After realizing that he had been intimidated by the frail woman for a moment, he became even more angry: "It is your honor that we requisition your well. This is the will of the shepherd god. Do you want to go against God's will?"
The chief was filled with grief and indignation when he heard this: "Three elderly people and two women in our tribe have collapsed on their sickbeds because they have not had water for a long time. Why does God still want water from us?"
Jiang Lili looked at such a heroic scene in the tribe and sighed in her heart. She looked outside the inn. A cold front passed through Haizhou Island in the past few days, the temperature dropped sharply, and it rained frequently. At this moment, it was raining heavily outside the inn, and raindrops as big as beans hit the window frames.
Jiang Lili wished that the rain could be transferred to Mi Country.
Hiss, Jiang Lili thought about it carefully, and it seemed that it was not impossible?
Jiang Lili got up and went downstairs, asked the waiter for an oil-paper umbrella, and then went to the backyard of the inn.
Jiang Lili already had a plan in her mind at this time. She told Wen Qiao about her plan and asked Wen Qiao to be ready to take action at any time.
While discussing the plan with Wen Qiao, Jiang Lili saw in the video that the messenger of God did not directly answer the chief's question, but instead reprimanded the chief.
