Chapter 213 Rainstorm Comes

Rainwater flows down the eaves.

A lot of turbidity has accumulated in the drainage ditches around the patio.

Chen Youxi stood next to Lu Fang, gently holding Lu Fang's arm, and said, "It's been raining for several days and it hasn't stopped. I don't know when it will stop."

When Lu Fang heard this, he just sighed softly.

He has made careful observations in the past two days.

Ningyuan County's drainage system can still cope with the current rainfall. Waterlogging will not occur, and there does not seem to be any sign of waterlogging.

However, when there is heavy rain, Ningyuan County's drainage system is not enough.

After all, the drainage design of this era is still far from being comparable to that of cities in the 21st century.

I don’t know if Luliang will be there in time, otherwise there will be a sudden heavy rain, which will be very troublesome.

late at night.

Lu Fang was sitting cross-legged on the bed meditating, and suddenly he opened his eyes.

A brilliant light flashed from the depths of his eyes.

Another breakthrough in cultivation.

Arrive at Shaoyang Zhengjing Zulinmiao Gate.

Of course, this is all due to the hatred value contributed by Liu Mao and others.

Although the hatred value rose to more than 4,000 points throughout the whole day, it was enough for him to break through the Kunlun Wonderful Gate.

Kunlun Miaomen requires slightly more hatred than Qiuxu Miaomen.

This time he cultivated to the Yingdan state, and his experience increased by 19%. The rest was made up with hatred points.

It consumes less than 3,800 hatred points.

There are still more than two hundred points left.

Chen Youxi beside you was already used to strange things. He felt the fluctuation, opened his beautiful eyes, and just said softly: "With your speed, it won't take long to break through to the eighth-level martial artist, right?"

Lu Fang grinned and said with a smile: "It's still very early!"

In fact, I was afraid of irritating Chen Youxi.

It was less than ten days since he broke through and became a ninth-grade martial artist, but he had already penetrated the six wonderful gates of the Shaoyang Canon.

This speed is absolutely appalling.

Although Chen Youxi is a seventh-grade martial artist, it took her more than ten years from practicing martial arts to becoming a seventh-grade martial artist.

That is to say, after being reduced to Zuihua Tower, he no longer had any hope in life, so he gave up the practice of martial arts.

And her bones are also quite good. Anyway, they are much better than Lu Fang's.

The next day.

Lu Fang did not go to Tanzhou City.

The money Wang Sidong sent was only enough to buy a bone-purifying pill and a ground spirit grass. In this rainy weather, he was really too lazy to go to Tanzhou anymore.

I thought that I would wait until Wang Sidong sells some more capsules, and then wait until I have saved up enough money for three doses of medicine.

Having experience in taking marrow-cleansing pills, Lu Fang estimated that he should take three more bone-purifying pills, and the earth spirit grass would still have some effect.

Only the bone elixir and the medicine behind the earth spirit grass can also improve the root and bone, but they are much more expensive.

Going out early in the morning, Lu Fang went directly to the county government office to find Lu Liang.

All the money was delivered, but he was worried about Lu Liang's execution ability because Lu Liang seemed to never take flood control seriously.

Ningyuan County has not had a flood in decades, so perhaps he still felt that the probability of a flood was low.

But Lu Fang believed in his own judgment and intuition.

When something goes wrong, there must be a monster.

Fortunately, Lu Liang is reliable this time.

Lu Fang asked him about flood control, and he smiled and said: "Don't worry, kid, I made arrangements yesterday. Today, workers will go to build temporary shelters outside the city, and Director Zhou will also go to major grain stores.

It’s time to buy food.”

Lu Fang nodded, "That's good."

Lu Liang looked at him and said: "But have you ever thought about it. Now that we are making flood prevention preparations in such a big way, there will be no floods by then, and you still have to return the money to those who donated. You pay for this money...

Or should I pay?"

Lu Fang curled his lips and said: "Don't worry, I know your yamen is poor and there are no floods, so this money will be treated as a free donation from me."

Lu Liang was a little stunned, "You are so rich now?"

"Hey."

Lu Fang smiled proudly, "With your brother's intelligence, isn't it easy to get some money?"

Lu Liang glanced at him and said, "Tell me, what is the purchase price of your ginseng capsules and some hair growth agent?"

It turns out that even he knew about it.

It seems that ginseng capsules and hair growth agents are indeed widely spread among the upper class society in Ningyuan.

But Lu Fang couldn't say it, so he pretended to be mysterious and said: "Secret."

Lu Liang shook his head, feeling helpless.

After leaving the county government office, Lu Fang went straight to Yu Yuanwei's house to study.

What always made him feel something was wrong was that Yu Yuanwei actually talked to him about many systems in Dayu again today, even involving local areas.

This can be regarded as a covert question for Lu Fang.

Because the questions in the imperial examinations of the Great Chongqing Dynasty were often linked to the system and people's livelihood.

Lu Fang couldn't help it anymore and asked aloud: "Teacher, are you planning to go out soon?"

Yu Yuanwei was not in such a hurry before and just let him study by himself.

Yu Yuanwei shook his head, "No."

Lu Fang said again: "Teacher, why do you..."

"fine."

Before he finished speaking, Yu Yuanwei shook his head again and said. Obviously he knew what Lu Fang meant.

Judging from his expression, it's a bit complicated.

Lu Fang noticed something was wrong, but he couldn't say anything. After all, he was just a student of Yu Yuanwei.



In the blink of an eye, two days passed quickly.

A rare moment of peace for Lu Fang in the past two days was that he went out of the city to see the progress of the temporary shelter.

It is said that money can make the world go round, and this is true.

The county government provided money, and dozens of laborers worked in full swing in the rain in an open space more than a mile outside the south gate of Ningyuan County.

Then Wang Sidong sent nearly seventeen thousand taels of silver.

Sixteen more bottles of ginseng capsules and five bottles of hair growth agents were sold.

In addition to the thirty-two thousand taels from before, Lu Fang could buy two sets of Bone Essence Pills and Earth Spirit Grass with the money he had in hand.

But he is not in a hurry for this little time.

Moreover, a sudden huge storm suddenly swept through Ningyuan County.

After all, we encountered such extremely bad weather.

There was no warning.

Chenshi.

Lu Fang was on his way to Yu Yuanwei's house. It was drizzling when he went out, but before he could reach Yu Yuanwei's house, there was a sudden violent storm.

First, a gust of wind blew through the streets of Ningyuan.

Lu Fang was even a little unsteady on his feet, and the oil-paper umbrella in his hand was blown to pieces.

On the street, chickens and dogs were jumping around.

Almost no oil-paper umbrellas held by pedestrians on the road survived.

Many people hurriedly ran to the eaves of street shops or under tents to take shelter from the rain.

But this gust of wind blew many tents away.

Immediately afterwards, without waiting for anyone to react, raindrops as big as soybeans began to fall.

It hurts when hit in the face.

There was a snapping sound on the roof.

The trickle flowing down the eaves soon turned into a waterfall.

Down below, the gutters simply didn't have time to drain away such a large amount of rainwater. The turbid water gathered on the street at a speed that was almost visible to the naked eye.

Lu Fang stood under the eaves of a shop and looked at the sudden change in weather. He knew in his heart that if the heavy rain lasted a little longer, the towns outside Ningyuan County, not to mention, would not have been flooded for decades.

Waterlogging occurred in Ningyuan County.

Is my hunch still accurate?

I don’t know how the temporary shelters outside the city are being built.
