Chapter 498: An unexpected surprise after failing to buy building materials
The task of finding a construction team was assigned to Gu Yanchen and Ran Qingxuan together. However, as soon as they left the house, the Chen family and the Xiao family followed them out.
"Well... my dear nephew... I'll hire a construction team to build a house. The price will be quite high..."
"If there are any that are a little cheaper, could you please keep an eye out for us?"
Seeing their embarrassed expressions, Gu Yanchen immediately understood what they wanted to say.
"Don't worry, uncles. We will help you buy materials and hire a construction team to build the house. It won't be too late to come back later when you have the money."
The two of them felt a little awkward after hearing this, and Ran Qingxuan followed up, "Uncles, we have supported each other along the way and have come this far. You also know that my husband is not just pretending when he says these things."
"Since we are going to live here for a long time, the materials for building the house cannot be too bad. Once the house is built, we can think about how to make a living later."
When the two heard this, they agreed that it made sense. Since everyone in their family had hands and feet, they could pay back the money to build the house when they made money in the future.
"In that case, we would like to thank our nephew and his wife first."
The two men drove the donkey cart away. Chen Chengping and Xiao Hongyi looked at each other and breathed a sigh of relief.
"It seems that we have to hurry up and find a way to make a living, otherwise we will be too sorry for the help of the Gu family."
"Brother Xiao is right, but we need to think carefully about what to do."
After the two returned together, they discussed with their family how to find ways to make money as soon as possible.
On the other side, Ran Qingxuan and Gu Yanchen blatantly left the village. When they passed the center of the village, many villagers who were gathered together chatting looked at them and pointed at them.
"It's this little girl. I saw her kill several Yigui people last night..."
"I saw it too. And those men killed people without blinking an eye."
Several families living close to the village center saw what the Gu family did last night, so they didn't dare to say anything too loudly when they saw them passing by.
"I think there are reasons for exile. Maybe he was exiled because he killed someone in the capital..."
"I don't think so. The group of soldiers who came yesterday seemed to be very familiar with them. Maybe they were exiled for other reasons..."
No matter what the hidden story is, the fact that this new group of people is not easy to deal with has already spread among the villagers of Yongfeng Village.
Even after the two men drove their donkey carts far away, they could still hear the villagers' discussions behind them.
Ran Qingxuan looked at Gu Yanchen, who was driving the carriage next to him, and smiled helplessly.
"These villagers have plenty of free time."
"Don't worry about them. Let's just take care of our own business. You can buy the ingredients from the space, and we'll release Qu Feng and the others after we find a construction team."
Ran Qingxuan understood what he meant. Now that they had settled down, the matter of treating his eldest brother's leg injury had to be put on the agenda.
The two of them traveled all the way to Zixi Town, and after asking around, they found out that either the construction team asked for too high a price, or the materials did not meet the quality that Ran Qingshen wanted.
"If all else fails, go look for it in Los Angeles. It's a big place and there will always be good quality and reasonable prices."
Helplessly, the two spent more than 40 minutes going to Los Angeles, but they found out that after asking seven or eight construction teams in a row, none of them were willing to take their job.
Now even a fool could see the difference. Returning to the shop that sold building materials, Ran Qingxuan directly took out a few taels of silver and stuffed it into the hands of the shop assistant.
Anyone who has the chance to make money but doesn’t want to make it is a fool, the waiter whispered to them while the shopkeeper was away.
"Why don't you think about whether you have offended anyone, which is why you can't buy it anywhere..."
After going out, the two found a stall and sat down to drink tea. Ran Qingxuan's face looked very bad.
"No need to think, it must be Qian Lizheng's family who did it."
Gu Yanchen was a little troubled for a moment. If the other party didn't want to sell it, they couldn't buy it by force.
But if the house is not built well, the whole family will have a miserable winter.
Ran Qingxuan didn't believe it, and whispered to Gu Yanchen while no one was around: "I can buy building materials on my tablet, but these things can't appear out of thin air, I have to find a way to get them."
After Gu Yanchen felt troubled, he had already thought of a solution and smiled faintly at this.
"What a coincidence, we want to go together."
"We just need to find a place to put the building materials, and I'll take care of the rest."
Ran Qingxuan didn't know what he was up to, but as long as the building materials she bought could appear reasonably, it would be fine.
Gu Yanchen took her directly to the largest pier near Luo City after getting on the donkey cart. But before they got there, the donkey cart they were driving could no longer squeeze in.
After Gu Yanchen told her to wait where she was and not to run around, he followed the crowd to the innermost part of the pier.
Ran Qingxuan had nothing to do, so he just looked around the busy pier.
Unexpectedly, after walking for only a few minutes, we heard a loud, dull noise coming from the cargo ship parked at the dock.
Then screams were heard everywhere, but the language spoken was not Northern Qi dialect. No one could understand the gibberish.
But Ran Qingxuan, who was passing by, understood it, and it was the Maozi language that she was familiar with.
The next second, a man with deep features, blond hair and blue eyes appeared from the edge of the cargo ship.
He kept shouting at the crowd, but no one responded.
Ran Qingxuan looked around, found the wooden board to get on the boat, and ran up quickly.
What the man said was actually a call for help.
"Hi, I can help you."
When the blond-haired and blue-eyed man saw that the Northern Qi woman in front of him could actually speak their words, he immediately showed an excited expression.
"Help me, my wife is dying..."
It turned out that the loud noise on the deck was caused by improper operation of the accompanying crew, which caused the heavy objects they were carrying to fall heavily on a woman.
Ran Qingxuan pushed through the crowd and stopped those people from moving the things, then quickly checked the woman's injuries.
"You can't move these things before you are sure of your wife's injuries. Otherwise, if there is any external injury, she will bleed profusely."
What is more serious is the crushing injury. Once the objects are moved away, internal bleeding will instantly take the woman's life.
The blond man realized that Ran Qingxuan could save people, and immediately asked the people around him to disperse.
"What are your names?"
"My name is Aixar and this is my wife, Jinlil."
"You can call me Ran. Once I'm sure everything is ready, I'll have someone move these things away immediately."
"Yes, I will."
The crew members were all Russians, so they could understand what Ran Qingxuan said.
During her diagnosis, the crew had secured the box that was pressing on Jinlil.
After confirming that Jin Lil's legs were only broken, Ran Qingxuan immediately asked the crew to lift the box.
The box was lifted up, and Jinlir, who had fainted, instantly woke up from the pain.
Aiksa held his head and comforted him softly, and together with Ran Qingxuan pulled her out.
Jin Lier cried out in pain, her face turned pale, and Ran Qingxuan said to her: "Your legs are broken, I will try my best to connect them."
Jinlier leaned in Aiksa's arms and nodded at Ran Qingxuan.
"Thank you, my friend."
The box that was moved away fell apart because of the fall just now. Ran Qingxuan's eyes lit up instantly when he saw the things that fell out of it.
“It’s actually glass!”
