In just one night, the busiest business in the market, besides the place with water to drink, is the iron shop. There are three circles of people inside and outside, and the orders are lined up for who knows how far.
Even the upcoming seventh day of the seventh month, a lively day in the city, was put aside.
Fortunately, the government offices in the huge city of Jiangling stopped sitting idly by and stepped in to recruit blacksmiths. They first installed public distiller's equipment in every village and county, and then formed a fleet to transport seawater.
The purpose of such a grand event is to appease the people.
Although the process was difficult and arduous, it was enough for the people of Jiangling at that time. At least they were not abandoned and did not have to leave their hometown and wander around.
