Chapter 284: The best of both worlds
When Wang Hao heard Barnett's shout, he immediately wanted to laugh, but it was inappropriate to think about it, so his expression became weird. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
Aviva also heard the sound outside, came out of the kitchen with the kettle of boiling water, and said to Wang Hao: "Don't pay attention to him, Barnett never remembers the kindness of others to him, he must have no choice, so he will come to beg you!"
"Hmm!" Wang Hao nodded, and after a pause, he asked again: "Is the punishment of digging a well really that terrible?"
Aviva said: " You should also see that we are very short of water here, the original well, now not only the amount of water is becoming less and less, and the water quality is also getting worse and worse, there have been outsiders to say, this is because there are too many mines on the periphery, the structure of the surface of the land is damaged, the specific reason is not clear, but no matter what, it is necessary to drill a deep well, and relying on the limited number of people in our clan now, if you want to drill a qualified well, it will take at least half a year, which is not known to outsiders。 ”
At this time, Barnett outside seemed to have been caught, and he was shouting loudly, wanting to beg Wang Hao to help him.
Wang Hao shrugged his shoulders and said to Aviva: "Look, it's best for me to go out and have a look, maybe I can help you solve the problem of water sources." ”
Aviva was stunned, looked at Wang Hao in a daze, and stopped talking.
Wang Hao got up and walked to the outside of the stone house, Shen Bing also put down the tea bowl, followed out, and asked curiously: "Wang, you don't still want to get the water pipe from the town here, right?"
"No!" Wang Hao shook his head.
"Then where did you bring the water from?" Shen Bing wondered.
"Oh, I forgot to tell you, yesterday I drilled a water-rich well in the mine, and we can't use up that much water anyway, so let's try it and see if we can help them solve the water problem. Wang Hao said.
Shen Bing: "......"
Wang Hao walked outside and happened to see Barnett being pressed to the ground by two young and strong natives, and took out a rope, ready to tie Barnett up.
Barnett fell to the ground, gasping for air, his clothes were all soaked with sweat, and the sweat on his face dripped from time to time on the dry earth, as if he didn't want to resist any more uselessly, waiting to be captured.
However, when he saw Wang Hao appear, Barnett's eyes lit up, and he immediately broke away in surprise from the two indigenous strong men who wanted to tie him up, jumped up from the ground, and shouted happily: "Boss Wang! I'm here!!Save me!!"
At this time, several natives chased after Barnett, and the old patriarch also appeared under the protection of several natives.
Barnett spread his hands at Wang Hao in despair, and said: "Boss Wang, I was wrong with the previous thing, I shouldn't offend you, if you open your mouth to help me plead for mercy today, I will do whatever you want me to do in the future, I don't have special skills, but I have the guts!"
Wang Hao took a look at the surrounding situation, and thought that Barnett would not be able to run, so it was better to be a favor, so he stretched out his hand and waved, signaling the two natives who wanted to escort Barnett to wait first.
"Don't worry, I don't think Barnett will run anymore now!" Wang Hao said.
Barnett was overjoyed, nodded again and again in a hurry, wiped the sweat on his face with his sleeve, and said flatteringly: "Boss Wang is right, Boss Wang has spoken, I will definitely not run!
The two natives looked back at the patriarch who was walking over, and saw that the patriarch had no clear order, so they nodded and temporarily abandoned the plan to bind Barnett.
Soon, in addition to Barnett, the other four bullies were also brought over one by one, and they did not have Barnett's good luck, they were all tied up like a big dumpling, with a loveless expression.
Patriarch Lu smiled and said, "Mr. Wang Hao, it just so happens that you are also here, so I will announce the punishment of these five people who offended you!"
When Barnett heard this, he was anxious and said loudly: "Don't, patriarch, can't I be obedient in the future, I won't mess around again, just ask me not to dig a well!"
Patriarch Lu turned pale and reprimanded: "You are the strongest in the clan, you don't dig wells for the clansmen, do you want me, an old man, and women and children to dig wells?"
"These people who are chasing me are stronger than us, why can't they!" Barnett looked at the strong clansman behind him.
"They didn't make a mistake, let them dig wells, you have to pay them, do you have this money?" said the Lu patriarch angrily.
Barnett was stunned and didn't dare to say more, but still protested: "Patriarch, it's too hot now, if it's winter, I'd be willing to do this, it's better to wait for winter." ”
Patriarch Lu shook his head, waved his hand, and ordered the clansmen around him: "Tie it up first!"
"Boss Wang!!" Barnett had to plead with Wang Hao again.
"Well, don't worry!" Wang Hao nodded and smiled slightly, he didn't interject just now, just a bystander, and considered a feasible plan, and now he has an idea.
Seeing this, Patriarch Lu politely bowed to Wang Hao and asked, "Mr. Wang Hao, do you have anything you want to say?"
Wang Hao nodded and said, "Yes, Patriarch Lu, I have a way to get the best of both worlds, you might as well listen to it." ”
"Well, tell me about it!" Patriarch Lu nodded.
The clansmen who followed the Lu clan also focused their eyes on Wang Hao's face at this time, wanting to hear Wang Hao's method.
"Wang, have you thought about it?" Shen Bing touched Wang Hao's arm on the side and reminded.
"Yes, I'm in my own way. Wang Hao said.
Barnett was overjoyed at this time, and thanked him repeatedly: "Thank you! Thank you, Boss Wang!!"
Wang Hao smiled and said, "Barnett, I'll ask you one thing first, and I'll talk about this best of both worlds method after asking!"
"Of course, Boss Wang, you ask, don't say one thing, it's a hundred things, and I'm willing to answer you!" Barnett smiled flatteringly and nodded repeatedly.
"Okay, I ask you, Barnett, you're reluctant to dig a well now, mainly because it's too hot, right?" Wang Hao asked with a smile.
Barnett looked around, hesitated, and then replied loudly, "Yes, if it's a very cool environment, I'd dig a well!"
Want to cool off?
The surrounding natives turned their faces away with disdain.
Want to be cool in this tropical desert climate?
Even in winter, the weather is only a little cooler, and it won't improve much!
Wang Hao didn't care about this, he just had to say this sentence in front of Barnett in front of their people.
"Okay, Barnett, I'll meet your request!" Wang Hao said loudly with a smile.
