The next day, Lin Jiuyue vacated his carriage and left all the supplies at the inn.
Because the inn belongs to the Gu family, Lin Jiuyue is not worried about losing her supplies.
Besides, the supplies that can be left in the inn are not very valuable things. The valuable ones have been placed in Lin Jiuyue’s space.
When they arrived at the village, the village chief was already waiting at Lin Jiuyue's homestead.
There were five burly men following the village chief, who were obviously good at work.
Lin Jiuyue greeted the village chief, and without any extra words, everyone headed straight towards the mountains.
The workers had to bring their own tools and other supplies. The wages were forty copper coins a day, and food was not included.
On the way.
"Miss Lin, if five people are not enough, you can tell me that in our village, although there are not many other things, there are many strong men who can work."
Lin Jiuyue smiled.
"Five people is enough. When there are not enough, I will talk to the village chief."
Just the two of us, my brother and I, can each do the work of several people. Five of us is almost enough.
After chatting all the way to the mountain, Lin Jiuyue and the village chief confirmed the trees that could be cut down, and then the workers started working.
The village chief stood aside, thinking of the big words Lin Qiye had said before, and felt like watching the fun.
Seeing the village chief like this, Lin Qiye wanted to teach him a lesson and at the same time use his own fighting power to intimidate those with ulterior motives.
He picked up the tools he brought and started chopping at a big tree.
One, two, three... five.
“Crack!”
The big tree snapped with a loud noise.
village head:……
Worker:……
When did this tree become so fragile? It was felled in just five strokes.
"Alas, this tool isn't very handy. If I had a tool that was right, I could be even faster!"
The village chief and the workers all widened their eyes.
“This, this…”
Except for Lin Jiuyue, everyone present thought they were seeing things.
"Am I seeing things? This huge tree was felled in just five strokes!"
"I saw it too. It shouldn't be a dream!"
"Oh my goodness, is this something a ten-year-old can do? We are really regressing in age, not even as good as children."
"It's not that we are not as good as children, it's that they have this ability!"
The villagers were saying all sorts of things.
Lin Qiye looked at the village chief with some pride.
Once the news of me cutting down trees today gets out, there shouldn't be any foolish people coming to cause trouble for me, right?
The village chief was also stunned. It took him a while to react.
"Oh, Lin Qiye, you have the legendary innate supernatural power! You chopped down such a big tree in just a few strokes. No one would believe it if I told anyone!"
Lin Qiye raised his chin with some pride.
"Village Chief, I've already told you that my brother and I are no worse than grown men!"
The village chief smiled awkwardly.
"That's more than okay. How can a grown man chop down a tree in five strokes?"
Seeing that his younger brother was getting a little too proud of himself, Lin Jiuyue patted Lin Qiye on the shoulder.
"Come on, stop showing off and get to work!"
Lin Qiye responded and continued to work.
Lin Jiuyue also joined in.
With Lin Qiye’s previous performance, Lin Jiuyue chopped down a big tree in just a few strokes. The workers’ mentality has improved a lot, at least they are not as surprised as at the beginning.
There were five workers, plus Lin Jiuyue's sister and brother. A total of seven people cut down a lot of trees in one day.
If we continue like this, we will have enough wood to build the house in two days.
The village chief smacked his lips.
No wonder the brother and sister were able to reach the outskirts of Beijing so easily while fleeing famine. It turns out they really have some real abilities!
If I had this ability, let alone escaping from famine, I would be able to live well even if I was thrown anywhere!
The next day, Lin Jiuyue and her brother still followed the workers to the mountain to cut wood. Lin Jiuyue asked the village chief to help with buying bricks and tiles.
On the third day, the bricks and tiles purchased by the village chief were delivered, and Lin Jiuyue and the others had chopped enough wood. The next step was to build the house.
Lin Jiuyue and her brother didn't know much about building a house, and were just worrying about it when Gu Chengyan came over with his men.
"Jiuyue, you haven't found someone to build the house yet, right? I brought some people here..."
Lin Jiuyue looked at the person following behind Gu Chengyan.
"Gu Chengyan, you are my timely help. I was just worrying about this matter, and you brought people here."
With the professionals brought by Gu Chengyan, Lin Jiuyue became a "hands-off boss". He told people his ideas and began to think about how to make money.
It will take at least a month to build the house, so I have to make good use of this time.
During the two days in the village, Lin Jiuyue did not go out to hang out, but was always chopping trees in the mountains. Now that he had some free time, he took Lin Qiye and Gu Chengyan to wander around the village?
Along the way, he met many villagers, but Lin Jiuyue didn't recognize any of them.
"Those are the brother and sister who came here to escape the famine, right?"
"Hush, keep your voice down. They say they're fleeing famine, but have you ever seen anyone build a house so lavishly upon arrival? In my opinion, this family must be something special. We'd better keep quiet."
"What are you afraid of? We didn't say anything bad about them."
"I'm telling you, don't mess with them. I heard from the people who work for them that there are only two siblings in this family. However, these two siblings are not simple characters."
The woman who was speaking had a mysterious look on her face, and it was almost as if the words "come and ask" were written on her face.
"How do you say that?"
"I heard that these two siblings are both very tough, each one more fierce than the other. They could chop down a tree this big in just three or five strokes."
The woman gestured as she spoke, as if she was afraid others wouldn't know.
"What? He was chopped down in just three or five strokes? I've never seen anyone so powerful before. Are you kidding me?"
The woman's eyes narrowed and her eyebrows raised.
"Don't you know what kind of person I am, Mrs. Wang? When did I ever say something that didn't exist?"
"Really, really! I can testify to this. Didn't the husband of our neighbor also go to help chop wood? She said her husband told her so himself when he came back!"
…
Lin Jiuyue and her brother and Gu Chengyan were walking on the road in the village, listening to the villagers' discussions about them but not paying any attention.
What these people said was true. Besides, he also wanted to spread his "bad reputation" so that people who wanted to cause trouble here would have to think twice.
In this way, you can avoid a lot of trouble invisibly. Isn’t that a good thing?
