Chapter 597: Chapter 584: Found a Treasure

“Hmm.” Zhuang Qingning nodded, “Though it’s not certain that there’d be a drought, it’s always better to prepare early and avoid rushing when the time comes.”

But there’s no such tool as a waterwheel here. If there was, it would be exceedingly helpful for drought-resistance and regular irrigation.

If there was indeed a severe drought, this waterwheel might help everyone around survive.

Zhuang Qingning thought about this, recalling the appearance of ancient foot-powered waterwheels she had seen. She planned to try to sketch that image once she returned home and then have people try to make it.

But even if she could draw it, it would still be just a conceptual diagram. If she wanted to actually construct it, she would probably have to have carpenters study it for a while to see how to make it work.

[Ding, congratulations to the host for obtaining a 3D waterwheel puzzle model. Once the host completes the puzzle, they can receive a detailed disassembly diagram of the waterwheel.]

The sudden voice in her head caught Zhuang Qingning by surprise and then brought her immense joy.

But soon, the joy turned into a sigh.

Did this really count as a task?

Frankly, this seemed no different from receiving a waterwheel disassembly diagram for free…

[I had no choice.] (The voice grumbled.)

[It’s because your marriage stone has been growing so fast recently that your luck has been extremely high. This has caused the difficulty of your tasks to decrease and the ease of your item acquisitions to increase.]

In other words, she currently had an advantage and everything was going smoothly.

Zhuang Qingning squinted and smirked.

In that case, you should quickly assign some daily tasks for gaining diligence value!

She should take advantage of this time to do more daily tasks and get rid of her debtor status sooner.

[Haven’t you noticed yet?]

[Look…]

As the voice finished speaking, a light flashed through Zhuang Qingning’s mind, and she saw her current accumulated diligence value on the scoreboard.

She was no longer in the red, her balance was now in the positive, albeit a small amount.

Remaining diligence value: 13 points.

Did this mean that she had already paid off the diligence value she owed?

If she hadn’t been at Zhuang Jingye’s house at that moment, Zhuang Quingning would have definitely jumped with excitement. But even as she had to maintain her composure around Zhuang Jingye and Mrs. Ye, the smile on her face couldn’t be stopped.

Having been in debt for so long, suddenly having no debts at all made Zhuang Qingning feel liberated. She just wanted to celebrate.

But even while feeling happy, Zhuang Qingning still kept a cool head and asked her question.

But why is this?

During this time, she hadn’t done any tasks that would have brought a large amount of diligence points. Also, the diligence value from her daily tasks had been quite ordinary. This sudden clearing of her diligence value really took her by surprise.

It was so sudden that it almost felt unreal.

[It’s because of the marriage stone…]
