Chapter 286: Preparing The Soil
Xu Xiang watched with interest how the villagers successfully moved the five large water turbines to the river. Although the technology in this world is very backward, from the performance of the villagers just now, she realized that the human beings in this world only need opportunities to grow and develop their world by themselves. All she needs to do is give them a little push, and provide opportunities for them.
Mu Yucheng noticed the changes in her expression and asked, "What are you thinking about?"
Xu Xiang let out a sigh and said, "I just realized that my thoughts are very arrogant."
"What do you mean?" He asked again.
Xu Xiang pondered for a moment and said, "I used to think that the human beings in this world needed my help in everything, just because they lacked knowledge and supplies. Unknowingly, I had put their standing below me. I also underestimated their worth and power as human beings. Just because I got better knowledge and supplies than them, I forgot that every living being in the world should be treated equally. It’s really scary to have power if I can’t control myself and fail to remind myself not to get carried away."
After listening to her words, Mu Yucheng patted her on the head, and said gently: "It’s good that you can realize your mistakes before it’s too late."
When he looked at Xu Xiang, pride and gratitude flashed in his eyes. Unfortunately, before Xu Xiang could see it, those feelings had already disappeared from Mu Yucheng’s eyes.
Hearing what he said, Xu Xiang smiled and held his hand that was patting her head. "Mhm."
It didn’t take long for the villagers to install the water turbines according to Huan Yun’s instructions. When the water turbines are placed in the river, Huan Yun directs the villagers to arrange the waterway made of bamboo to channel the water to farmland.
After Huan Yun unplugged the stopper on the water turbines, the river flow began to push the turbine. Seeing the water slowly flowing through the waterway to the farmland, the villagers couldn’t help cheering with excitement.
Huan Yun watched the water turbines for a while to make sure that there were no problems with the water turbines and the waterway, then looked at Xu Xiang and gave her a thumbs up. Soon, the dry farmland was slowly wetted by the river water. Looking at the happy and excited villagers, the corners of Xu Xiang’s mouth also raised slightly.
Followed by the villagers of Mei Hua Village, Han Yizi approached Xu Xiang, Huan Yun, Mu Yucheng, and Hu Wenfeng. Standing in front of the four of them, Han Yize bowed deeply, and said in a choked voice: "Thank you, Venerable Master, Young Ladies, and Young Master, for saving our village."
