"That's not entirely true. Perhaps you haven't met the role that's most suitable for you yet."
"Old Huang is simply out of options. He won't be offered any roles other than military ones," Ye Zi comforted him.
The yellow whale also looked helpless and said:
"Who says otherwise? I've even played a domineering CEO before. Has anyone seen that?"
Ye Zi raised an eyebrow; he really didn't know that. Er Ya asked with a puzzled look:
"You've played a domineering CEO before? How come I didn't know that?"
The yellow whale said with a dark face:
"That's a bit of a blow. Am I really that insignificant when I play other types of roles?"
"Actually, I haven't watched that TV series either," Ye Zi said helplessly.
“Okay, you two win,” the yellow whale said, feigning anger.
The topic returned to Ye Zi's yurt villa, and Huang Jingyu asked when they could move in.
Ye Zi didn't know the answer to this question either, because the construction company only guaranteed that the project would be completed before winter.
But after completion, there are still renovations and furniture to be added, which all take time.
Summer is alright, there should be people willing to come to the grasslands to work, but winter is another story, even if there is heating in the house.
Because once it snows heavily, not only will transporting materials be difficult, but even leaving the area will become a problem.
But one thing is for sure: we'll be able to move in next summer.
The yellow whale immediately said that it would take some time to come and play for a few days to relax.
After hanging up the video call, Ye Zi smiled. She never expected that participating in a wilderness survival activity would not only lead to financial freedom but also make two friends.
The construction is progressing well; the bases of the five yurts have dried. The bases are made of cement, and heating pipes are embedded in the surface.
The yurt and other items have been delivered, and the construction team has started assembling them. It only takes one day to assemble a yurt.
The rest is interior decoration, which has nothing to do with the construction team; we need to find someone else.
Ye Qingshan wasn't idle either. Through his previous connections, he bought a truckload of hay. Since the truck was hired temporarily, he needed someone to lead the way.
This task naturally fell to Ye Zi.
They drove their pickup truck to the roadside and waited for a short time. A semi-trailer truck loaded with hay was right next to Ye Zi. After exchanging information, they confirmed that they hadn't made a mistake.
Ye Zi got into the truck, stepped on the gas, and drove onto the side road, heading towards home. The dirt road was difficult to travel on, and the truck was fully loaded, so the speed was not fast.
After arriving home, Yezi started unloading the truck. The truck driver was only responsible for delivering the goods; he didn't handle the loading and unloading work.
Fortunately, Ye Zi didn't mention it. The driver rested, and he started working. There was no need to even use Ye Qingshan.
To be honest, these hay bales are quite heavy. They are all machine-processed, and are rectangular in shape, weighing around 100 kilograms.
Because the fodder was just harvested, the moisture inside hasn't evaporated completely, so even if it's less than 100 kilograms, it's not far off.
Large, dark green woven bags, each containing a piece of hay, filled an entire truck. Even with a forklift, unloading this quantity would take a considerable amount of time.
But Ye Zi thought it was nothing special. She carried a bag in each hand, went down the ladder, and put it directly into the straw shed.
The driver, who was taking a break, originally thought that Ye Zi would use the construction site's loader to unload the truck, or at the very least, call a few workers over to help.
Unexpectedly, Ye Zi took matters into her own hands and carried a bag in each hand.
He was a driver, and it wasn't his first time transporting hay, so he naturally knew how heavy a bag of hay was.
But looking at Ye Zi's incredibly relaxed appearance, I suddenly had the illusion that he was pulling cotton instead of hay.
No, even when these large woven bags are stuffed with cotton, they are not light. Ye Zi's face didn't turn red and she wasn't out of breath, as if she was carrying two empty woven bags full of air.
Ye Qingshan calmly smoked his cigarette, as if the person unloading the truck wasn't his own son.
However, this cannot be blamed on him. One hundred kilograms is a considerable weight for him, and he needs help to carry it.
The construction team had no obligation to help him unless he was paid extra. He couldn't very well ask his wife for help, so Ye Qingshan had no choice but to listen to his son and rest.
Anyway, 100 kilograms is nothing to leaves.
As it turns out, while unloading the truck by hand might not be as efficient as using a loader, it was definitely the easiest method.
Because loaders cannot deliver hay into the hay shed and stack it neatly, while leaves can.
Seeing how easily Ye Zi unloaded the truck, the driver, not believing it, went over and tried it himself. Yes, it was indeed fodder, the kind that comes in 100-kilogram bags.
Ye Zi saw the driver make a move and asked in confusion:
"Are you in a hurry, sir?"
The driver paused for a moment and said:
"No."
Ye Zi continued to ask:
"So you're still handling loading and unloading work?"
"No, I saw you had a bag in each hand and thought you had pulled out the wrong thing, so I came to check."
Ye Zi nodded and said:
"No mistake, this fodder is quite moist."
The driver nodded awkwardly, then went back to rest.
Ye Qingshan poured him a cup of tea and explained:
“My son is strong and said that my help to unload the truck is just making things more difficult, and that he would rather unload it by himself.”
The driver nodded, looking at Ye Zi who was busy as a bee, and said:
"Your son is indeed very strong."
Ye Zi worked all afternoon and didn't finish unloading the hay until after dark.
The construction workers were used to it; they often watched videos when they had nothing to do and had long recognized Ye Zi as the strongman from the survival show. In addition, the foreman had also mentioned Ye Zi's reputation in private.
Sometimes the construction team even had to ask Yezi for help.
They took it all for granted that Ye Zi was the one unloading the truck by herself.
After finishing their meal, Ye Qingshan settled the freight charges with the driver. He had originally planned to let the driver rest for the night, as the night roads on the grassland were difficult to travel.
But the driver wanted to save time and make an extra trip, so he had no choice but to leave.
For safety reasons, Ye Qingshan instructed Ye Zi to deliver the package and also to go to the county town to buy some fuel and food.
Ye Zi didn't care. She was planning to go to the county town to buy supplies in the next couple of days anyway, so it didn't matter whether she went early or late.
Just like when we came, a pickup truck led the way, followed by a semi-trailer.
Once on the highway, everyone went their own way.
To be fair, semi-trailer truck drivers tend to drive quite aggressively, especially when the truck is empty, and on roads where you can't see another vehicle for miles. It seems like they'd rather floor the gas pedal.
Before long, Ye Zi could no longer see the other person's taillights.
Only Ye Zi and her car remained on the highway, driving at a steady speed towards the county town.
Three hours later, Ye Zi finally saw the lights of the county town stretching as far as the eye could see.
Entering the city, finding a hotel, completing the formalities, and shopping were all things to do the next day. It was a three-hour drive, and I was very tired.
This is why Ye Qingshan told him to set off tonight. It's too far from the county town, and the round trip would take six hours. Adding the time to purchase supplies, he would leave in the morning and return home in the evening, leaving him no time to rest properly.
We'll set off tonight, rest in the county town for the night, and the return trip tomorrow won't be too tiring.
