Originally, Xia Feng wanted to invite Maruyama to have a popsicle, but unfortunately there were no popsicle here, and there were not even those who sell fruits. So, I had to ask him to drink water, which was cold.

As for drinking water, 5 copper coins are not worth mentioning in Xia Feng's eyes, even if you add a zero, it will be the same.

Thinking back to the beginning, Li Yuntian, the boss of Yuntian Group, directly took the 10 billion check from Longmen Bank on the coffee table in the barbecue restaurant.

When he saw the check, he smiled indifferently, coughed, and then quickly put it in his pocket after he left.

....

Five copper coins were nothing, but Maruyama still felt embarrassed and muttered.

"I didn't have any money to fetch water when I came to the town last time, why do I have to collect money again now?"

In fact, this is not Maruyama's stingyness. Later, Xia Feng realized how cheap the dried fish sold in Mino Village was in the town.

Xia Feng took the water scoop and drank it hard, then filled the kettle and said.

"It's okay, I have money, don't be polite to me."

"Okay, thank you, brother-in-law."

“???”

....

Xia Feng said that he was very rich, and Maruyama didn't know what it means to be rich until they went to buy cows.

After replenishing the water, Xia Feng first learned a rough idea of ​​the money needed to buy building materials and calculated the budget. He decided to buy cows first.

At the entrance of the town, Xia Feng knocked on a resident's home with a big buffalo tied in front of the door.

The door was opened, and an old man with a straw hat looked at Xia Feng in confusion and asked with a cigarette puff.

"What are you, young man, knocking on my door? My family doesn't sell anything."

Xia Feng pointed to the big buffalo tied in front of the door.

"Uncle, is this cow sold in your family?"

The old man shook his hand.

"If you have cultivated land, you won't sell it."

"Uncle, I can pay more."

"I said it was arable land, so I won't sell it no matter how much I give it."

Xia Feng took out his pocket.

"I'll pay one gold."

The old man's eyelids twitched.

"No, I can't sell it. If the cow is gone, I have to borrow it from my neighbors. It's very troublesome."

Xia Feng took out his pocket again.

"I'll pay 2 gold in total if I add another gold."

The old man's cigarette puff shook.

"This... this is not a matter of money. We have raised this cow since we were young and have all the feelings. My old woman would not agree."

"3 gold, if not, I'll buy it at another place."

"Bit!"

The cigarette pipe fell to the ground, and the old man grabbed Xia Feng's hand, as if he was afraid that he would regret it, and he kept repeating it in his mouth.

“Sell, sell, sell.”

.....

The prices on the entire South Coast are ridiculously low, but Xia Feng feels that it is not a loss to spend 3 gold to buy a cow.

For farmers, cattle are the lifeblood of a family, and this is not an ordinary cattle, but a professional "tractor cattle" who knows how to cultivate the land and works hard.

It can be seen that this family still has feelings for the old buffalo. Although the feelings are ultimately defeated by money, they are also for the sake of life.

After learning that they were villagers in Nano Village, the old man also gave him the simple wooden ox cart and prepared some forage. After the cows were sold, it was useless for them to keep these things. Judging from their age, the 3 gold was enough for the old couple to have no worries about food and clothing in this town.

The old man and his wife were reluctant to leave. They repeatedly confirmed that they would not kill the cow and eat meat. After receiving Xia Feng's affirmative guarantee, they closed the door with pain.

In this way, there is still no tractor, but with the substitute, the family members will like +1.

"Old Niu, go and go home with me."

Lao Niu has a very docile temperament and personality. Perhaps because he felt that he had been sold, he followed Xia Feng and moved away with his hooves.

“Moo~”

....

Cattle are very expensive because this is not an ordinary commodity, but an efficient labor force that requires time to take care of and work hard to farm and train.

In contrast, what you need to build a house is cheap.

Various casings, iron frames, waterproof compartments, including exquisite doors and windows, etc., cost less than 1 gold in total.

Because there are a lot of things, even if there is a ox cart, it cannot be finished at once. After paying the money in one go, they decided to ship it back in batches in the next few days.

afternoon.

Xia Feng and Maruyama drove the full ox cart to walk back.

The mountain roads are bumpy, but fortunately, the old cow is relatively stable and is used to walking in muddy fields, so it will not be deterred and will not be fooled.

With dusk, the two of them worked together and spent a longer time than when they came, and finally returned to the cherry blossom forest late at night.

....

Under the night, neither the bagpipe nor the Fengbao slept.

Each person and a dog were sitting next to the fire, and the bagpipe was still planning the layout of the home, while Feng Bao was waving his tail boredly.

Suddenly, Feng Bao's ears erected, and the shaking big trolls turned into propellers. When he heard the sound of Xia Feng coming back, he immediately stood up and rushed towards the distance.

"Woof, woof, woof!"

The bagpipe raised its head when it heard the sound.

Because the light was dim, she could vaguely see someone walking in this direction.

As she gradually got closer, she saw Xia Feng clearly, and then she saw the honest big buffalo.

"Wow! Wow! Wow! Wow! Wow! Wow!"

Along the way, although Xia Feng didn't carry anything, his legs were still weak, tired and sleepy.

However, when he saw the bagpipe and saw the big buffalo, he really felt that everything was worth it.

This gift is better than all clothes and jewelry for bagpipes, and is the closest thing to her dream.

...

the next day.

The bagpipe directly ignored the titles of [Dark Crasher] [Tornado Locomotive] [Fire Bull Demon King] and other titles given by Xia Feng, and firmly gave the old buffalo a name she liked, called Daidai.

Facing the name Daidai, Xia Feng stood from an objective perspective this time, putting aside the secondary disease, and sincerely felt that Lao Shui Buffalo might not like this name.

But since it is a gift for bagpipes, it doesn’t matter what it is called, as long as she likes it.

morning.

Xia Feng ran to Nano Village and called two young men to help, preparing to continue to go to the town to transport the rest back.

As for Maruyama, who is the homeowner designer and engineer, he stayed and started construction.

..

The sun gradually rose to the middle of the sky, and then slowly set from the west, repeating the same transportation route as yesterday, and the summer wind came to "Go to the West to obtain the scriptures".

He is indeed very tired, but along the way, the most tired one must be Daidai, who is the main force.

Xia Feng gently patted the old cow's neck while wiping sweat.

"Old man, it's very heavy."

“Moo.”

"Don't worry, I promise you that this is definitely not the norm in life. If you endure it, pull everything back and it will be over."

“Moo~”

....

I went out early and came back late. When Xia Feng returned to the cherry blossom forest with his goods from the town, it was late at night again.

But this time, he was greeted no longer the open air and the fire. In the position he selected with the bagpipe, the prototype of the house had already appeared.

Maruyama is indeed professional, not only professional in techniques, but also in efficiency. In just one day, the house has begun to take shape.

Of course, the upper part of the head is still open air, but the four walls have already stood up on three sides.
