Leisurely Traveler with Check-in System Chapter 141 - 96: Homestay Set Sail: Riverside Cottage [13,0
Of course, these matters don’t really interest Grandma and Grandpa.
Li Younan had his reasons for transforming this place like this, which brings up those three bedrooms.
Besides Grandma and Grandpa’s bedroom, the other three rooms not only have private bathrooms but also feature exquisite carpentry and soft furnishings. They are simple and pleasing while being convenient to clean, entirely comparable to boutique hotel rooms.
When Li Younan finished creating these three rooms, many people on the live chat asked, "Strear, are these rooms for rent?"
"Suggest that the strear uses these rooms as a hostay!"
"If it’s open for business, I’ll definitely co and show support!"
"Wow, the quality of these rooms is completely up to hotel standards, and they’re even cleaner!"
"Want to co and see Grandma and Grandpa..."
Grandma and Grandpa occasionally appear on cara during the stream; fans who regularly watch Li Younan’s livestream know them well by now.
However, Li Younan still hasn’t responded to these fans’ live chat ssages.
The renovation plan has essentially reached completion at this point.
The next step involves ticulously refining so details.
At this stage, it becos hard to see changes every day, and even after a busy day, the video might not show noticeable transformations.
Like carving so carpentry pieces to make them more attractive; trimming newly planted fruit trees; or revisiting areas that initially seed reasonable but later felt in need of adjustnts, doing so rework there.
Li Younan estimated that it would take about another week to finish completely, just in ti for Lu Xiaolan to start school.
During this ti, Lu Xiaolan continued working as a live streaming assistant.
Now she’s quite experienced, knowing exactly when to hype up the atmosphere, when to warn the followers to watch their language, and when to explain what Li Younan is doing — she handles all these matters with ease.
It’s undeniable that she’s saved Li Younan a lot of trouble.
From just a few dozen viewers at first to now a steady few hundred, sotis even over a thousand, Lu Xiaolan has been indispensable.
Li Younan’s fan count has now exceeded 300,000, officially elevating him from a beginner strear to a mid-tier strear.
Strears with between 100,000 to 1 million followers can generally be considered middle-tier, with monthly earnings ranging from a few thousand to over a million, enough to sustain a decent living.
However, Li Younan hasn’t truly capitalized on this status to earn significant money yet.
There’s no rush in this. Although he hasn’t received many big projects, over the past few months, Li Younan’s savings have steadily returned to six figures through filming videos and accepting comrcial deals. This amount is after he gave Brother Long a cut.
Notably, after several prompts from Li Younan, Brother Long finally sent over the contract. The sent contract had been anded to include so comrcial agent responsibilities in addition to the original video packaging role.
But what surprised Li Younan was, the contract didn’t have the full na, only the character "Liu" and a red fingerprint. Seeing this fingerprint and incomplete na, Li Younan found it amusing.
He had thought Brother Long trusted him completely, but not revealing his real na on the contract made Li Younan see Brother Long as more genuine. Before this, he had thought the conditions posed by Brother Long were too good to be real, questioning whether he was a fictitious character.
The work in the final week was quite miscellaneous and not highly specialized, like cleaning and moving so odds and ends, making it rather painstaking for Li Younan. So, besides Lu Xiaolan needing to start "brick-moving" in the final days, Li Younan now had another assistant.
At this mont, Ren Xiaohuan was carrying a pot of flowers into the residence. Grandma stepped out of the hall and said, "Xiaohuan, co take a rest. I’ve made so mung bean soup."
Ren Xiaohuan wiped the sweat off her forehead and replied, "It’s okay, Grandma, I’m not tired."
Ren Xiaohuan is Dou Dou’s older sister.
Because of the last incident with the carving knife, Ren Xiaohuan seed a bit evasive when looking at Li Younan.
But several tis, she brought so household items over for Li Younan’s grandparents — sotis freshly picked vegetables, sotis newly cooked cured at and sausages.
Ren Xiaohuan is taking care of her little brother and paralyzed mother alone. The village provides their family with subsistence allowances, and her father, who works outside, sends money back every month, ensuring they’re not too impoverished.
Frankly, it’s hard to see the kind of life nowadays where people can’t afford at or als, portraying the true picture of rural life.
Yet every ti she brings these items over, Ren Xiaohuan deliberately avoids Li Younan.
Once when she couldn’t avoid him, she bumped into Li Younan while he was working. She dropped her head in panic, said "Sorry," and quickly ran off.
Li Younan could roughly see that this young girl still felt apologetic about her brother’s incident.
In contrast, her little brother Dou Dou was far more thick-skinned.
Despite genuinely feeling ashad, the next day he happily ran over to watch Li Younan work.
On a later day, Dou Dou even used the carving knife Li Younan had given him to carve sothing unknown and gave it to Li Younan in return. Li Younan inspected it carefully for a while and cautiously said, testing his words, "This pig—"
