Chapter 1493 Britannia who don't take a bath

A week after the first well went wrong, all wells in Berlu were scrapped.

No well can produce water again.

However, because the central government of the Frank Empire had already collected all the water resources in the city in advance and provided the minimum water resources for every household in the city, even if all the wells in the city no longer came out of the water, the emotions of all the citizens in the city were still stable and the order in the city could barely be maintained.

However... all the important officials of the Central Committee of the Frank Empire knew that this situation could only last for another half a month...

Because they have calculated that the water resources they currently reserve are only enough for them to use at least half a month, even if they are distributed to each urban citizen at a minimum.

In other words, half a month later, they will be in a desperate situation where there is no water available.

There are still many people in the center of the Frank Empire that have not given up hope.

For example - Xia De.

Xia De now locks himself in the room every day, flipping through the set of books without covers, looking for ways to solve the current desperate situation.

Eat, drink, defecation, urination, and sleeping, all of them are solved in the room.

No matter who persuades him to put down the book and walk out of the room, he will not listen.

In addition to Shade, some important officials led by Erwin did not give up hope.

The important officials led by Elvin summoned all the hydrological experts in the city and tried to make some groundwater in the city.

Groundwater was fired in just half a month - this is basically a fantasy.

However, even in a fantasy, Elvin and others were unwilling to sit there and wait for death, doing everything they could.

Some people are unwilling to give up hope, but in contrast, many people have already given up hope.

Faced with the current desperate situation, these people completely gave up their struggle.

Living a chaotic life that can live a day is a day...

Some people neither give up struggling nor are they proactive...

Allen is a typical representative of such a person...

...

...

The Frankish Empire, Berlu, Allen's home.

"Allen, what happened today? Why did you suddenly come home?"

Alan's wife, Nifa, placed a plate of bread on the table, wondered at Alan who was already sitting at the dining table.

"I just thought of you suddenly, so I planned to come back and have dinner with you for a long time." Allen squeezed out a smile that was not very good-looking.

Allen's arguments are not actually a lie.

He really missed his wife and son.

Because only by returning to his wife and son can Alan temporarily escape from the current desperate situation... let Alan escape from all kinds of difficulties...

In order not to cause panic among the citizens in the city, the Central Committee of the Frank Empire did not inform the citizens of the tragic situation that there was no water in the city.

The people of Bolu who were still deceived can only receive the minimum amount of water every day.

The water you can get every day can only barely support your life, so it is extremely precious.

It is precisely because the water is very precious now that the citizens of Bolu City have not taken a shower for some days.

However, because everyone has no water to take a bath now, everyone smells very smelly, so no one can smell their own body.

At the same time, because water resources are very precious now, people spend less salt when cooking to avoid dry mouth.

Although Allen rarely goes home to reunite with his wife and children tonight, the atmosphere inside the house is extremely heavy.

The reason is that Alan's expression at this moment is so scary.

There was no trace of emotion on his face.

Just gnawed the bread expressionlessly.

Allen's expression directly affected the atmosphere on the scene, making the atmosphere on the scene solemn...

Allen affected the atmosphere, and the atmosphere also affected Nifa and Adam, making the mother and son feel that the bread in their hands was a little difficult to swallow.

"well……"

Nifa put down the bread in her hand and sighed.

"A day like this... I really don't know when it will end..."

As soon as Nifa finished speaking, Adam said hatefully:

"It's all the abominable Britannians and Sheerans! If it weren't for their invasion of us, we wouldn't have to fall into the current situation where we can't even get out of the city of Bellu!"

"The Britannians are just a bunch of hateful barbarians who don't even know how to take a bath!"

Adam turned his head and looked at Allen.

"Father! When it comes to this, I feel distressed for you! I have lurked in a country where no one takes a bath for so long!"

When Adam said this, Allen was a little stunned.

The Britannians did not have a culture of bathing—this rumor was widely circulated in the Frankish Empire.

In the impression of almost all the Franks who had never been to the Britannian Empire, the Britannian Empire was a stinking country.

Alan, who was young, thought so at first.

It was not until he joined the army and began to fight with the army of the Britannian Empire and did not smell any unpleasant smell from the soldiers of the Britannian Empire that Allen knew that the rumor that "the Britannians did not take a bath" was completely fake.

In addition to "the Britannians did not take a bath", there were also many negative rumors circulating in the Frank Empire.

For example - the Britannians like to eat raw meat.

The Britannian women were miserable and were treated like men.

The Britannians were cruel and their favorite thing to do was to abuse prisoners of war.

...

After a long silence, Allen said in a deep voice:

“……The rumor that Adam, the Britannians did not take a bath at all is actually completely fake…”

"The Britannians, like us, can bathe, and they also wash very frequently."

"Some people from wealthy families even take baths every day."

"Father...what are you talking?" Adam looked at Alan with confusion, "Why are you still talking to the Britannians?"

"…I am not talking to the Britannians, I am just stating a fact."

"The Britannians, like us Franks, are just ordinary people."

“No more hand or more foot than we do.”

"They are no different from us except for the different languages ​​spoken."

“There are a lot of bad people among them.”

Alan recalled the eyes of those who had just "returned" to the Britannian Empire, and those who disliked him cast a look at him.

“There are…a lot of good people too.”

Enley, Albert, Gozevin, and... Ilsa's faces flashed before Allen's eyes.

"So... don't say the stupid words of the Britannians who are all savages who don't take a bath..."

"Father..." Adam's face became more and more confused. "What's wrong with you? Why do you talk to the Britannians? The Britannians are all savages who can't even bathe. Is this wrong?"

"I'm not talking to the Britannians..."

"Father, the Britannians are all our enemies. How could they have any good people..."

"Didn't you hear what I just said?! The Britannian Empire has both bad people and good people, why don't you understand?!"
