"The three of you working together can't beat the opponent?
I think the longer you live, the more backward you become. "
Lin Siyao sat at a table not far from the bed. He poured himself a cup of water and mocked them coldly. He didn't have the slightest bit of sympathy for Sirou, who was sitting cross-legged on the bed recuperating.
"We were careless." Si Chong's tone was slightly vexed. "I didn't expect the West Corridor's Double Brakes to be so powerful.
No wonder … "
"Feng Qingya is strange."
Louis Stu, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly said something that seemed to come out of nowhere. However, it shocked everyone present.
"Pfft …" Lin Siyao sneered faintly. "Internal and external troubles … I think you guys should learn from me. Conceal your identities and become farmers."
"Si Ling …" Hearing this, Si Tuo looked at him speechlessly. "You're a 'dead' person. That's why Feng Qingya didn't find you.
But we … "If they left Fengyao Pavilion at this time, needless to say, Feng Qingya wouldn't be willing to let them go. They wouldn't be able to live peacefully anywhere.
"I think Si Ling's suggestion can be considered."
Si Chong muttered to himself for a long time. Then, he slowly opened his mouth. "The current Fengyao Pavilion has completely abandoned the rules set by the previous Pavilion Master.
Hmph, if we continue to work for Feng Qingya, we won't be assassins anymore. We'll be demons. "
"I agree."
Sirou, who had just finished recuperating and opened his eyes, took over Si Chong's words. A cold light flashed in his eyes. He said coldly, "Think about the six hundred people in Fengyao Pavilion. There are quite a few whose martial arts aren't inferior to ours. But they want us to go to the West Corridor.
If they don't want us to be buried in the West Corridor, then what is it?! "
He had long seen that Feng Qingya didn't have good intentions towards the three of them.
Especially after the incident with Si Ling. Louis Stu and the other two were the leaders of many people in Fengyao Pavilion.
If he guessed correctly, Feng Qingya wanted to completely change the blood, right?
A year ago, it was Si Ling. A year later, it was the three of them.
In another year … all the disciples who came out of the old Pavilion Master's hands would be replaced within three to five years!
Lin Siyao was speechless when he heard that his suggestion, which he had made out as a joke out of boredom, was actually regarded as a feasible plan by them.
"It's settled then.
When Sirou recovers and returns to the pavilion to deal with the remaining matters, we will discuss this matter. "Louis Stu drained the cup of strong wine in one gulp and calmly made the decision.
"That's right, we've also accumulated quite a bit. If we eat and drink too much, we won't starve to death."
Besides, didn't Si Ling give the three of us some money?
By the way, Si Ling, you won't go back on your word, right? "Sirou smiled evilly. The color returned to his face, concealing the fact that he was seriously injured.
"When the time comes, we'll be neighbors with Si Ling."
Although a certain someone will give us the cold shoulder from time to time, without him, the three of us won't necessarily know how to cook.
Haha … "Si Chong added fearlessly.
"Then, Si Ling, we'll leave our residence to you.
We'll be back to accompany you in three months at the earliest and a year at the latest. "
If it weren't for the fact that Louis Stu's face was still cold and emotionless, Lin Siyao would have suspected that he had changed. Was this something that a cold-blooded assassin would say?
"Don't forget the matter I asked you to do before," Lin Siyao said with a frown as he helplessly looked at the three people who had made up their minds in less than a quarter of an hour.
Currently, he couldn't go to the Fengyao Pavilion thousands of miles away. If he wanted to take back half of his life's savings, he could only ask the three of them.
Although, he only received a fifth of it.
However, this fifth was enough for him to do a lot of things in this small Blossom Town.
… …
Since his family planned to expand their residence, and Louis Stu and the other two gave him the task of settling down, Lin Siyao started planning to buy land and build a residence the moment he returned to Blossom Town.
"What?
You want to buy the six acres of wasteland on the west side? "Village Chief Wang Gengfa stared at Lin Siyao in surprise.
Although the wasteland on the west side of the town was currently ownerless, it would cost at least a dozen taels of silver to buy six acres of wasteland in one go.
Why would he spend so much money to buy wasteland?
To build a house?
They were just a couple, what would they do with such a big residence?
To cultivate fertile land?
What would they do with so much fertile land?
The two acres of fertile land that was connected to the residence was enough for their family to live on.
Wang Gengfa thought about it and couldn't understand why Lin Siyao asked him to buy six acres of wasteland.
"I have a few friends who want to settle down in Blossom Town, and they asked me to help them settle down.
I don't see any family in this town that wants to sell their residence, and Shuiche is pregnant, so the family will have to expand sooner or later. I just want to buy some wasteland to build my own residence. "Lin Siyao's words were rarely so sincere.
In fact, he originally wanted to buy the two acres of fertile land west of his house, which was a total of ten acres.
However, he was afraid that the other residents in the village would have objections, so he simply bought the six acres first, arranged two acres for his family, and built a big courtyard for the three of them with the remaining four acres.
As for if they wanted to start a family in the future and wanted to expand, that had nothing to do with Lin Siyao.
There was no reason for him to be responsible for finding a wife for them like a parent.
To be honest, he suspected that he wasn't himself anymore.
At least, he wasn't the Si Ling of the past.
Louis Stu and the other two were ordered to kill him a year ago.
A year later, he still had to help them settle down like an old woman. Just thinking about it made him sullen.
However, every time he thought about how it was thanks to them that he was able to meet Shuiche and have a warm and comfortable little family, he felt relieved.
Everything had a cause, and everything had an effect.
There was a cause and an effect, and that was the way of the world.
… …
"So, the village chief agreed?"
Su Shuiche smiled as she made a wet towel for him. It was now the middle of June, and the noon sun was already very fierce.
Although Lin Siyao knew martial arts, the short walk to the village chief's house did not make him sweat profusely. However, Su Shuiyong had already developed the habit of wiping his face with a wet towel when he first entered the house.
"Yes, he has no reason to disagree.
Wasteland is still wasteland no matter how long it's been, so it's better to sell it to us. "Lin Siyao wiped his face, casually rubbed the towel clean, and with a wave of his hand, hung it on the towel rack.
Then he held Su Shuiche and walked towards the central room.
"How do you feel today?" He asked softly.
"Very good." Su Shuiche heard this and gently stroked her slightly protruding lower abdomen.
According to Aunt Lao, the twin's belly was indeed a lot bigger than the single child's belly.
In less than four months, it was already obvious that it was protruding.
If it was left in the womb, who knew how big it would be.
Thinking about how Flower Town and the surrounding towns of Qingtian and Luoshui had never had twins, those women and sisters-in-law who were not familiar with Su Shuiche but only felt that it was strange, found an excuse to visit, and followed Aunt Lao, Aunt Tian, and others from time to time to take a look. Su Shuiche didn't know whether to laugh or cry. How did she become a bird that was locked in a cage for people to admire?
… …
On this day, Lin Siyao finally got the deed for six mu of wasteland from Sun Youmao.
He looked for Tian Dafu to discuss the matter of building a house.
Of course, he decided to build a house for Louis Stu and the other two first.
First, Su Shuiche was now preparing for delivery, and it was not easy to raise her spirit. If the neighboring house was far away, it would be annoying all day long, and he was afraid that it would disturb her rest.
Second, Louis Stu also said that at least three months, they would settle the matter of Fengyao Pavilion and come here to settle down. Therefore, he had to build a place for them to stay first, so that they would not find an excuse to disturb him all day long.
Therefore, Tian Dafu took him to three of the most famous bricklayers in the nearby towns. He also found a few small workers and carpenters who had not taken on any work, including Fang Dasheng and a few others who had once made furniture for his family.
A group of people gathered at Tian Dafu's house to discuss the construction of the four mu courtyard in the far west.
When they heard that there were only three people living in such a big house, these people were stunned at first, and then they guessed that some rich man must be coming here to settle down.
Otherwise, with only three people, why would they need to build four mu of land?
"It's best to have a single-family bedroom and study, and a shared hall and kitchen.
As for the corner of the open space, just plant some bamboo. "
Lin Siyao briefly mentioned a few conditions that were not conditions, and planned to leave first to go home.
As for the rest, it was all handed over to Tian Dafu.
As for the wages. "You all calculate all the materials needed to build the whole house, and give me an estimate of the price.
Once the start date is set, I will pay you half of it first.
The other half will be paid after the completion. "
After that, he nodded to Tian Dafu, meaning that everything was handed over to him. Then he left the Tian family and rushed home to make lunch.
"Da … Da Fu, is this what the Lin family meant?
We can set the price?
In the end, we will pay half before the start, and half after the completion? "Unable to bear the doubts in their hearts, several masons took the lead in discussing.
"Yes, Da Fu, your family and his family are close. Is this what he meant?"
Rubbing their hands, a few of them could no longer suppress the joy in their hearts, and calculated how much money they could make.
"You all are fine, huh?
In any case, he is also our family's Dabao's master.
His family's business is my family's business.
Okay, okay, okay, hurry up, calculate the total amount of silver needed, and I will give him a number.
Let me make it clear first, it will be the amount needed, don't play tricks.
You all know that he is a warrior, don't embarrass yourself. "
Tian Dafu glanced at the crowd, clearly warning them seriously.
"Aiyo, I'm just saying, why so serious?
Okay, okay, Da Fu, then let's calculate carefully, we won't overcharge him, but we can't lose out, right?
You know, this kind of house building method, we are big girls sitting in a sedan chair, the first time … "
"That's right, Da Fu, when the time comes, you have to tell the Lin family that if we make a loss in the end, can they subsidize us a little?"
Among these people, there was no need to mention Tian Dafu. As for the others, other than Fang Dasheng, Wang Shuifa, and Feng Laoliu, who had done woodwork for Lin Siyao before and were certain that Lin Siyao would not mistreat them, the other masons, even though they had heard of Lin Siyao's generosity in hiring before, couldn't help but think about how they could make more money.
However, after all, the winter and summer seasons were the time when work was the least. Now that they had such a big project, they would be the ones who would lose out if they asked for too much.
Therefore, after the masons discussed it over and over again, the price they gave was considered fair in Tian Dafu's eyes.
