Yao Zhi smiled and explained, "Village Chief, I want to build a wall for my kitchen. I want to ask you to recomnd so people to . I can pay them five wen daily, including a al."
Hearing this, the village chief was surprised. Five wen daily was considered high wages. If they went to work in the town, they could only earn eight wen at most after working for more than ten hours.
He thought for a mont and asked, "Yao Zhi, do you have any requirents for your kitchen?"
"I do not have any specific requirent. Just make sure that the kitchen wall is sturdy and able to block rain and wind," Yao Zhi replied after thinking for a mont.
After she finished her words, Yang Sanlang suddenly said, "Father, building a wall for a kitchen is a small matter. My brothers and I can do it."
The village chief turned to Yao Zhi and asked, "Yao Zhi, are you in a rush to finish the wall?"
"It will be best if it can be done sooner."
"Since that is the case, then I can ask my nephews to co help. With my sons and my nephews working together, they should be able to finish the job in two days," the village chief said.
Hearing this, Yao Zhi nodded and agreed readily, "Then, I have to trouble you with this matter, Village Chief."
"It is no trouble at all. They are also idling at ho, having so job to do is a good thing," the village chief said with a smile.
After she reached her goal, Yao Zhi stood up and said, "Then I will take my leave first. Thank you for your help, Village Chief."
The village chief nodded and stood up. Seeing this, Yang Sanlang said, "Father, I will send Sister Yao Zhi back."
When she heard this, Yao Zhi turned to him and rejected his offer politely, "Thank you, Brother Sanlang. But there is no need. See you another day."
As she rejected him, Yang Sanlang could only stand at the gate and watch her back as she went farther and farther.
When he returned to his ho, the village chief stared at him and said, "She is already married. You should stop before it is too late."
Hearing his father’s words, Yang Sanlang’s eyes flickered for a mont before he lowered his eyes and said, "Father, I understand."
The village chief stared at him for a few seconds before he turned and returned to his room.
Not knowing what happened in the village chief’s house after she left, Yao Zhi went to take a quick bath as soon as she arrived at her ho.
The weather was too hot, and she was sweating like crazy. The feeling of her clothes clinging to her skin was so uncomfortable that the thought of soaking in cold water was so tempting.
Inside her room, she was sitting in the bathtub. The water was from the system’s farmland. Soaking in this water not only improves her health, but it also makes her skin whiter and smoother.
The temperature was cool, and she felt much better. While soaking, she opened her system’s shop and browsed for a while before she decided to buy a box of fruity flavor popsicles.
This popsicle was cheap and cost her three points for a box. Each box contained a total of fifteen popsicles.
While eating her popsicle, Yao Zhi glanced at the points she currently had. Letting out a sigh, she said softly, "Being a millionaire is a really good feeling. No wonder people work hard to earn money."
At the sa ti, the situation in the northern border fortress finally stabilized. Thanks to the provisions sent by Xue Ya’er, they managed to defeat the barbarians and pushed them back more than two hundred li.
This war has lasted for more than a year, and the number of casualties has been high. But for Fu Chen’an, it was only twelve days since he departed from the military barracks and joined the troops.
In these past few days, he was constantly on high alert, and only after the barbarians retreated was he able to have a good rest.
At this mont, inside the General’s room, a military physician was changing Lu Qianxuan’s dressing.
In order to make the barbarians retreat further, he chased after them and was injured when he was ambushed. During that ti, he was shot in his chest and almost lost his life.
If not for one of the soldiers carrying him on his back and giving him life-saving dicine, he would have turned into a cold body by now.
Thinking about that soldier, he looked at Gao Yan and said, "Gao Yan, this ti it is thanks to your n that I managed to keep my life. I will definitely reward you and your n."
Hearing this, Gao Yan quickly kneeled on one knee, cupped his fists, and bowed his head. "General, you are our leader, and protecting you is what we should do." his voice was loud and reverberated inside the room.
Although the military officers often quarreled and so of them competed with each other, at this ti, everyone agreed with him.
Seeing this, Lu Qianxuan said, "I will report this matter truthfully to the Emperor."
When they heard this, everyone kneeled on one knee, cupped their fists, and replied in unison, "Thank you, General!"
Fu Chen’an slept for an entire afternoon and only woke up at sunset. Seeing that it was almost ti for his night shift, he quickly washed his face and went to the cafeteria.
When he arrived, the sll of stead buns, stir-fried pickled vegetables, and braised at filled the air. He had only eaten two stead buns this morning and was hungry. Seeing the long line waiting for food, he quickened his pace and joined them.
After a while, it was finally his turn. When the military cooks saw him, they greeted him with a smile.
