Chapter 199: Pay Taxes
Seeing the change in their attitudes, Xu Xiang felt that what her elder brother said indeed made sense. There are no eternal enemies and no eternal friends, only permanent interests.
Looking away from the soldiers, she looked at the villagers and said, "Let’s fetch the water."
Qi Nu’a nodded at her, looked at the villagers, and said, "Go."
After that, only Qi Nu’a and a few warriors stayed behind to guard the entrance of the village, while Xu Xiang and the rest of the villagers went back to the village to fetch water.
Xu Xiang took out three large wooden barrels from the space and said, "Fill these wooden barrels and transport them to the entrance of the village."
Standing beside her, A Lu Ge looked at the three big wooden barrels and asked, "Xu Xiang, how much water does this big wooden barrel hold?"
"Two thousand liters of water." She replied calmly.
As soon as she said this, A Lu Ge and the villagers looked at her with puzzled faces. Realizing they didn’t know the measurement in liters, she thought for a few seconds and said, "It’s about four hundred buckets of water."
Hearing her answer, several people nodded and began to fill the wooden barrels with water. Seeing that they were going to filter the well water with the carbon filter, Xu Xiang quickly stopped them.
