It was only after he asked that he saw the large puddle of water on the ground. He didn't need to guess where the puddle of water came from. Suddenly, his face didn't look so ugly.
So, all his buckets of water are gone, there is nothing left at all?
"Man in charge, the water is gone, all gone."
Shitou, whose name was called, raised his head and looked at the steward. He was really sick in his heart. Until the steward came over, he could not find the person who destroyed their barrels.
"Bastard, who did this? Do you know?"
The steward looked at the mess and messy footprints on the ground, and he was so angry that his heart ached.
Of course he knew that there was no water. If there was water, why would it be snatched away by the common people? What he needed to know now was who was the person who ruined their plan to harvest grain!
"No, I don't know."
Shitou shook his head, if only he knew who did it.
If he knew who did it, he would definitely not let that person go. There would be no place for that person in Guangye City in the future.
But what they don't know now is that all the people here who are queuing up to fetch water don't look like people who can do such a big thing. What can he do?
"Manager, look at these barrels. They have all been smashed through, and the holes are extremely small."
He reminded the manager to look at those wooden barrels. The holes in them were only as big as his thumb. It would be fine if they were hit with a big stone, but the thumb-sized holes must have been made by something small.
What kind of skill does a person have to be able to smash their thick wooden barrels with such a small thing?
What's more, not just one barrel was smashed, but all the barrels.
When the steward heard this, he ignored the wetness on the ground and walked forward to check the holes in the barrel. When he saw the culverts, his pupils also shrank.
"These holes..."
It's not something that ordinary people can smash.
No, it was probably not smashed, but someone shot through the barrel with internal force.
"Steward, there are stones in the barrel."
Among the people who came with the steward, some people had already climbed onto the cart, stood on stools and looked into the barrel.
After seeing the small pebbles in the barrel, he stuck his head out and told the steward who was standing not far away who was able to smash through their barrel with such a small pebble.
"These stones are only about the size of a thumb. Someone in charge deliberately smashed through our barrels," the man said.
Hearing this, the person in charge just rolled his eyes at him.
Does he need to remind him of this? He has already thought of it. He is just thinking, who has such ability and can send such people to disturb his good deeds?
Someone from the government? I guess there is only one answer, right?
But he didn't understand that they had been getting along well with the government people in the past few days. The government people guarded their wells and fetched people one or two buckets of water every day.
As for them, they just use water to harvest food, and no one is in the way.
Why did something happen today? Did the officials get someone's idea and send people to stir things up?
He didn't think it was possible. Maybe other people came to the city and couldn't stand the fact that they used water to harvest food, so they deliberately did this to arouse the rebellious psychology of the people?
