Chapter 81 Let the Cow Pull the House
Su Nuan frowned and said, "All under heaven belongs to the king, and you dare to occupy the mountain and act like king!"
Another older woman quickly said, "No, no, sister, do you want to find wild vegetables or go hunting?"
Seeing that she was kind, Su Nuan said gently, "Hunting, but I won't hunt for nothing. I will give you some compensation."
"If you have any unused mountain products, pickles, eggs, or other food at home, please bring them out. I'll buy them at a 10% markup on the market price when I come back from hunting."
The older woman asked happily, "Dried vegetables here are ten cents a pound, and you're giving me eleven cents?"
Su Nuan nodded, "Yes, take this tael of silver. If I don't come back, this silver will be yours."
"When I come back to collect the goods, this money will be yours as well. It will be your reward for your hard work."
The older woman was smiling happily, which made the young woman who had just spoken very jealous.
She said sarcastically, "They must be scammers. They'll say our products are not good to lower the price."
The older woman had already left those people behind and ran towards the villa.
Su Nuan was too lazy to argue and continued walking up the mountain.
The young woman reached out to pull Su Nuan's backpack. Su Nuan noticed it, turned around, pointed a dagger at her nose, and asked coldly, "What are you going to do?"
The lady was so frightened that she sat down on the ground with a thud, her teeth chattering and she dared not speak.
Su Nuan snorted coldly and quickly walked up the mountain to shake off these people.
There aren't many prey on this mountain, and no traces of wild boars were found.
Su Nuan released the white wolf and asked, "Do you see any prey here?"
The white wolf raised its head, sniffed the air, and then ran in a certain direction.
Su Nuan immediately followed, it must have smelled the scent of prey.
"Yunyue, slow down. My two legs can't keep up with your four legs."
Su Nuan found that she could not keep up with the white wolf's speed. She could keep up with him before, which showed that this guy had grown up well in the space.
As a result, the run lasted for nearly half an hour. Su Nuan was exhausted, but still did not see any prey.
She sat down under a tree and panted, "I can't do it anymore. I'm tired."
Yun Yue looked at Su Nuan guiltily and sat down next to her.
Su Nuan took a break, drank some water, and after regaining her strength, she said, "It would be great if you could carry me."
Yunyue bit Su Nuan's sleeve and pulled her onto her back.
Su Nuan asked tentatively: "You want me to ride?"
The white wolf grew two more circles in the space, like a little calf, and seemed to be able to carry itself on its back.
She mounted it, grabbed the hair on its neck, and said, "Let's go."
Yunyue immediately rushed out, but she didn't expect that it could not only carry Su Nuan, but also run as fast as lightning.
Su Nuan was extremely happy. She thought that she could just ride a wolf when hunting in the future. There was no need to suffer the consequences for her legs.
Yunyue took Su Nuan to another hill, where there were large animals such as wild deer, wild sheep, and wild boars.
Su Nuan caught two wild boar cubs and threw them into the space, and also collected a pair of deer.
Wild sheep are timid and will run away at the slightest movement. Su Nuan, who was unprepared, was unable to catch one alive, so he hunted a few and put them in a safe place.
She looked at the sky and said, "Let's go back."
Yunyue carried Su Nuan back to the mountain next to the village. Su Nuan took out a wild boar, a wild sheep, and two medium-sized deer, tied them up with vines, and dragged them down the mountain.
When I was going down the mountain, I didn’t see any villagers, but I saw Li Shitou leading people up the mountain.
Su Nuan called out, "Little Stone."
Li Shitou immediately ran over, but the joy on his face froze when he was shocked by these prey.
"This, this, this...are all these hunted by my aunt?"
Su Nuan nodded, "What else? Hurry up and drag it away. I'm going to the village to collect dried vegetables."
Li Shitou immediately ordered his men, "You, take the prey back. I will take my aunt to the village."
"Yes!" The soldiers all had happy expressions on their faces because they would have meat to eat in the evening.
Su Nuan took Li Shitou along the village road to the village entrance. There was a big willow tree there. There were some benches made of stone slabs on the ground, and several elderly men were sitting on them.
Li Shitou was wearing soldier's clothes, and the villagers were a little scared.
Su Nuan called out from a distance, "I'm here to collect the mountain produce. Are you ready? I won't wait any longer."
She didn't plan to go to the village. The entrance to the village was spacious and it was convenient to pack things.
A hunchbacked old man said, "I'm the village chief, Li Dajin. We've prepared some mountain products, but do you have a scale?"
Su Nuan was startled, "Don't you have any?"
Li Dajin shook his head, "No."
Su Nuan was speechless and said, "How about this, you guys take out the items and quote your own prices, and I'll take them if I think they're suitable, okay?"
A look of joy appeared on the village chief's face. "Okay, I'll go get some help."
Su Nuan nodded, "Okay."
Don't be fooled by this old man's hunchback and old age, he walks just as fast as a young man.
Soon, many villagers gathered at the entrance of the village, each holding a cloth bag in their hands.
Su Nuan looked at Li Shitou and said, "I just decided to collect the things on a whim. Go back and get some baskets or sacks."
Li Shitou thought about it and felt that no one could bully his aunt, so he nodded and said, "Okay, I'll be back soon."
Su Nuan deliberately sent him away so that it would be easier for her to throw things into the space.
The villagers have all sold things before, so they know the price and can roughly estimate the weight by weighing it with their hands, so their quotes are very realistic.
Su Nuan is not a stingy person. After all, she doesn't feel bad about spending money that she has earned without any effort.
After everything was put away, Su Nuan secretly threw the good quality dried vegetables, mushrooms and dried fruits into the space, and piled the rest on a clean flat ground with large stones.
When Li Shitou came, he didn't doubt anything and put the things in sacks and filled three big bags.
Su Nuan carried one and said, "Let's go."
The two chatted as they walked.
Li Shitou said, "The captain said he found a carpenter for you. What you want requires large pieces of wood, and there are none in this village."
Su Nuan was disappointed, "Okay."
Li Shitou continued, "The captain said we'll reach Dalin Town in three days. This road passes through the middle of the town. We'll find a carpenter for you there."
Su Nuan nodded, "Okay." She didn't hold out much hope.
Seeing Su Nuan unhappy, Li Shitou comforted her, "This Dalin Town specializes in selling wood. They will definitely have the planks you want."
Su Nuan finally perked up, "Really? I hope so..."
Suddenly she slapped her forehead and said, "Oh, I'm so stupid. We don't have a wooden board. We can make the lathe body first. We can use a log as thick as a thigh."
Li Shitou asked in confusion: "What exactly is my aunt going to do?"
Su Nuan replied: "Build a house."
Li Shitou, "..."
He must be half asleep. How could he let the cow pull the house away? He didn't dare to say it out loud and simply kept silent.
Su Nuan ran towards the team with a happy face, leaving Li Shitou behind.
The voice of the space spirit entered Su Nuan's mind, "You want to build a house? Don't worry about it. I'll help you."
