Transmigrated To Ancient Time: Thrive With An Auction System!

Chapter 335: Plague ( 16 )

As someone who had wandered the Jianghu since he was young, Physician Mu understood how fickle human hearts could be. So, he didn’t take their words to heart.

He glanced at the villagers and said, ”You are the ones suffering from this illness, so you should know what is best for yourselves. Whether you choose to follow our instructions or not is up to you.”

”Now that we have found the source of the plague and have the medicine, I hope everyone can survive this disaster. We will distribute clean water to everyone, so you don’t have to worry about having nothing to drink.”

After finishing his words, he glanced at Yan Shu. As a Centurion, he had one hundred soldiers under his command.

Seeing that the villagers were no longer as agitated as before, Yan Shu ordered his soldiers to throw away the dirty water, wash the vats, and refill them with clean water.

They worked through the night and only rested when dawn arrived.

Early the next morning, Yao Zhi and her husband woke up before dawn and went to their shared manor.

While Fu Chen’an was busy filling up the empty water vats in his spatial bag with water, Yao Zhi was busy buying soap from the system’s shop.

To maintain basic hygiene, people need to wash their hair, body, and clothes. She browsed for a while and chose an all-in-one shampoo. This type of shampoo was suitable for any hair and scalp condition.

Since she needed a lot of shampoo, she bought the wholesale size, 5 liters per bottle, costing her 10 points. It was cheaper than the shampoo she used, which cost 15 points for 2 liters.

She didn’t know how much shampoo was needed, so she bought 1,000 bottles and changed the container. Instead of using plastic bottles, she opted for water vats. Due to the density of the shampoo, 5,000 liters was equal to 5,550 kilograms.

After she bought shampoo, she bought body soap bars. It cost 1 point for 5 pieces, each was 50 grams. Since the amount of soap needed to wash the body and hands was not small, she bought a total of 100,000 pieces, costing her a total of 20,000 points.

Then she browsed the detergent section. People in this era mostly worked on land, and their clothes would be covered in mud and dirt. They were also stained with fats if they worked in a restaurant or a pig slaughterhouse.

So, rather than the liquid type, she chose the powder type. Detergent powder was cheaper than detergent liquid. It is also effective in removing dirt, mud, and clay. Although it would be hard to dissolve completely in cold water, it’s better for heavily soiled garments.

Since she needed a lot of detergent, she chose the industrial package type. Each type weighed 500 kilograms and cost her 2,000 points. She bought a total of 100 packs, spending a total of 200,000 points.

When she was done, she closed the system’s shop and went to help her husband fill the water vats.

Although it was spring, the water sources on the northern border were scarce. There were mountain springs and mountain rivers, but the risk of being attacked by wild beasts made people unwilling to enter the mountains unless they had no other options.

With this thought, Yao Zhi said, ”Husband, how about we give the bamboo water pipe design to Madam so she could share it with the General? This way, the villagers who live near the mountain don’t have to drink melted snow or rainwater anymore.”

Hearing this, Fu Chen’an thought for a moment and nodded. ”That’s a good idea.”

”But the mountains are full of wild beasts. Will they be able to build the waterway?” she asked doubtfully.

Reaching out, he rubbed his wife’s head and said, ”Don’t worry about this. The General will find a way to help them.”

Recalling that the General was the male lead, Yao Zhi no longer worried about this matter. With the protagonist’s halo, he would be able to do anything he wanted.

They worked for hours before they finished filling all the water vats.

Seeing that her husband’s spatial bag was no longer enough to carry the items, Yao Zhi handed him another spatial bag.

”Husband, this bag is also for you. This spatial bag has an area 5 times bigger than the one you currently use.”

This time, Fu Chen’an didn’t refuse. As before, he dropped his blood into the spatial bag, and Yao Zhi received a notification that he requested to claim ownership.

She pressed the confirm button, and soon, the spatial bag glowed for a second. The moment the light disappeared, Fu Chen’an checked the size and was surprised that it was far bigger than he had expected.

He quickly put all the water vats into the new spatial bag and transferred the grains and other items to the new bag. He only left the items prepared by his wife for his own use in the smaller bag.

Since carrying two bags was too awkward, he put the bigger spatial bag into the smaller one and tied it to his sash.

With the blood seal, even if people stole the bag, they couldn’t open it. What’s more, he was a martial artist, and it was not easy for others to steal anything from him.

The moment they reappeared in their room, the sun had risen. They went to do their morning routine before quickly heading to the General’s mansion.

Seeing how busy their master and her husband were, Ling Yi and his brothers decided to take good care of the land and supervise the workers.

It has been 17 days since Fu Chen’an returned home, but they were too busy to spend quality time together. Besides that one time, they didn’t have any intimate moments anymore.

So, when they were on their way to the General’s mansion, Yao Zhi sat beside him and leaned on his shoulder. Although both of them were wearing their disguises right now, people found it odd for two men to behave so intimately in public.

Under people’s gaze, Fu Chen’an kept his expressionless face, while Yao Zhi had fallen asleep and didn’t notice the strangeness at all.
