The next day, Su Shuiche and Lin Siyao went to the large square early in the morning, leaving the two wolf pups to play with the innkeeper's two children in the inn's backyard.
Under Su Shuiche's repeated reminders and the condition of adding meat for dinner, the two wolf pups obediently lay on the ground, allowing the two three to five year old children to ride them like horses.
The shopkeeper's wife, who was carefully watching over her sons, was amazed. She was even more impressed with Su Shuiyue and Lin Siyao, who had just left. She decided to instruct her husband to give them a discount on the room fees as a thank you gift for letting their big pet dog play with her sons.
The two hardworking wolf pups lay on the ground, drooling and daydreaming. They would occasionally roar in their hearts, "Master, don't forget your promise.
We want to eat meat tonight! "
Su Shuiche and Lin Siyao walked through a few of the larger furniture stores. There was a lot of ready-made furniture on display, but the prices weren't low.
Just a two-meter wide bed with a low bedside cabinet on each side cost three taels of silver.
A three-door closet with a pull-out shoe cabinet cost two taels of silver.
Su Shuiche clicked her tongue when she saw this.
That one mu big house and two mu of fertile land cost no more than fifteen taels of silver. The prices of the furniture here were almost higher than the house price.
Su Shuiche didn't know that the furniture displayed in the furniture stores were the store's living signboards. Naturally, they chose the best pieces with the best workmanship and the most exquisite carvings.
The waiter, who had just sent off a group of customers, saw Su Shuiche staring blankly at the expensive large carved bed and guessed most of what she wanted.
"Miss wants to buy furniture?" The waiter warmly greeted her, "These are our store's signboards.
If you don't think they're suitable, you can follow me into the inner hall to look at the other designs. "
Upon hearing the waiter say that there were more items in the inner room, Su Shuiyong did not insist on buying the items in front of her. Although she was happy about the items, the prices were a little outrageous.
Sure enough, there was a whole room of furniture in the inner hall.
They were all made of ordinary wood and simple designs.
Although these pieces of furniture were not expensive, it was still more expensive than hiring a carpenter to make them.
Su Shuiche calculated in her mind that if she were to buy the several pieces of necessary furniture that she had considered in advance, the total price would be eleven taels of silver.
It was five taels more expensive than hiring a carpenter.
Five taels, Su Shuiche sighed inwardly.
According to the daily cost of living in Fanluo City, five taels of silver was enough to sustain a family of three for a whole year.
But why were exclusive tools so expensive?
"Miss, you don't know about this.
In our city, there are less than twenty people who know how to do carpentry.
Now, most of the wood near the mountain had been cut down. If they went any further, they would be close to the Dashi Mountain where the fierce beasts roamed. Almost no one dared to go there.
Therefore, from now on, the furniture would be made with wood from the neighboring cities, and the price would naturally skyrocket.
To tell you the truth, the price of our shop hasn't started to skyrocket yet. The other two shops are even more expensive.
If you don't believe me, you can go and have a look. "
When the waiter saw Su Shuiche frowning, he thought that she was complaining about the price of his shop, so he rambled on and said a lot of things.
He secretly persuaded her to buy it here.
Lin Siyao pulled Su Shuiche, who was still thinking, and whispered in her ear, "Let's go back first." The two returned to the inn.
… …
"Wh … What?
No! "Su Shuiche refuted Lin Siyao's suggestion before he could finish.
What a joke!
The waiter said that the Dashi Mountain was infested with fierce beasts and no one dared to go there. You still want to rush in just to cut down some wood to make furniture? Are you crazy?
"Listen to me."
Lin Siyao sighed slightly. He pulled Su Shuiche to the table and poured her a cup of hot tea. After walking for the whole morning, the two of them didn't even drink a cup of water.
Her soft lips were a little dry and cracked.
"We have been in the Dashi Mountain for more than a month. Have you seen any fierce beasts?" Lin Siyao looked at her softly and whispered.
"Huh?
That forest is the Dashi Mountain? "Su Shuiche blinked in disbelief.
Lin Siyao's mouth curved slightly. She didn't know.
No wonder she had such a big reaction just now.
He nodded, "Yes.
I guess the fierce beasts in the Dashi Mountain don't exist anymore. "
"Why?
We haven't seen it, which means that we are lucky. It doesn't mean that it doesn't exist. "Su Shuiche curled her lips. Which book said this?
It's better to believe it than not.
Lin Siyao pointed to the white tiger skin in the bag. His eyes flashed with an obvious smile, "I guess the fierce beast should be this."
"…" Su Shuiche was stunned.
No … No way?
My luck is so good?
I have just arrived in this world, and I am already far away from the hunting of fierce beasts?
If the two wolves hadn't fought with the white tiger that day, causing both sides to die, would he still be alive?
Su Shuiche pinched her sweaty palms and secretly rejoiced.
She should thank the two big wolves. Although they were also protecting the cubs, she also benefited a lot.
She decided to treat Xiaochun and Xiaoxue better in the future.
Oh, yes, I promised to add meat to their dinner tonight.
Don't forget.
… …
At night, Lin Siyao went to the Dashi Mountain alone.
He didn't tell Su Shuiche before he left.
He just left a note for her, saying that he would be back at noon tomorrow if nothing unexpected happened.
Then, he went to the backyard and glanced at the two sleeping wolf pups, waking them up from their dream of eating meat. Under their innocent gazes, he left Fanluo City and went straight to Dashi Mountain.
It was only when Su Shui Yong went to call him for breakfast the next morning that she found out that he had gone to Dashi Mountain to cut wood without saying goodbye.
All kinds of thoughts intertwined in her heart, and finally stopped at being moved and angry.
She was moved by his thoughtfulness, and angry at his boldness.
Well, even if he was good at martial arts, even if there were no fierce beasts in the forest, how could he carry all the wood back alone?
… …
Lin Siyao came to the entrance of the Dashi Mountain, picked a secluded shortcut, and went straight into the depths of the forest.
He guessed the wood color that Su Shuiche might like, and picked seven red sandalwood trees, which were as thick as two people. They should be more than enough to make the furniture in the bedroom.
The rest of the trees were blood-red beech trees, which were the most common in the forest. The dark red color should make the furniture very festive.
Thinking of this, Lin Siyao's cold eyes flashed with tenderness.
His hands didn't slow down in the slightest.
He transferred his internal energy to his hands, and with his hands as knives, each knife was fatal, and the trees fell to the ground one by one.
In a short while, the dozens of trees he picked all fell to the ground.
He used rattan as a binding belt, and tied five trees into a bundle, making six large bundles.
He made seven trips back and forth, and transported thirty-five trees to the entrance of the Dashi Mountain.
He then sat cross-legged, and adjusted his breath.
After a few circulations, his internal energy was restored to its original state.
Even if Lin Siyao had an indifferent temperament, he couldn't help but feel happy.
The Jade Heart Immortal Essence was indeed not ordinary.
Two spoonfuls of it not only healed him in a few days, but also restored the internal energy he had lost.
If this spread to the martial arts world, it would cause a bloody storm.
Thinking of this, Lin Siyao frowned. No matter what, the task at hand was to tidy up the house as soon as possible and move out of the inn.
Otherwise, if he accidentally lost the gourd containing the Jade Heart Immortal Essence Water, it would easily cause the martial arts world to covet it.
If it was in the past, Lin Siyao wouldn't care at all.
No matter how big the storm in the martial arts world was, it had nothing to do with him!
However, today was different. He already had a woman he loved, and he was about to have his own little family. In the future, he would have smart and cute children.
Once someone found the first trace of the Jade Heart Immortal Essence, the direct victim would most likely be Su Shuiche.
Lin Siyao clenched his fists.
He would never allow such a possibility to happen.
