Living in the mountains and forests as hunters

Chapter 80

Needless to say, everyone can guess what happened next, but in just one month, An Dalang was invited to several places to direct the building of the house, or several places were started at the same time, which made him keep running around. Going west, it was a lot of trouble, and of course it was not without benefits. He could take the goods along with him back and forth, transporting dried mushrooms, dried fungus, mountain products, and leather from all over the place to his home, and let Zhao Yiyi's shop I gradually added a lot of money, not only earning back the money I spent on buying rice and noodles for building a house a few days ago, but also a lot more.

Of course, what's more important is that their family has finally moved into a new house. There are two rooms upstairs, one outside and one inside. They are all in the territory of An Dalang and his wife. Although they are not as cool as in the cave during the day, At night, when the mountain wind blows, the house is ventilated from north to south, making it very comfortable.The three rooms below, the main room in the middle, are tightly packed with tables, tables, chairs, and a full set of hospitality equipment. The house is where An Dalang’s hunting and carpenter’s tools are placed, and of course a bed is also made. What An Dalang means is that if it is not comfortable to live above, he still wants to live here and regard the house above as a Although the storage room is just a preparation, everything that should be done is very complete.

Now this family lives in a very spacious place. Not only An Dalang and the others are happy, but Dabao and the others are also very happy. They could never have imagined such a good house.On the southeast corner of the south courtyard is a latrine. Although it is inappropriate to put this smelly place near the gate of the courtyard, who made it right next to the vegetable field!Watering convenience is not.Besides, An Dalang also built a shed with bamboo, which can not only shelter from the wind and rain, but also cover the smell of one or two. It can also cover one or two, and it can be regarded as the cleanest and tidy hut in the surrounding area.

As for the original cave, the cooking place is still the kitchen, and the storage room is still the storage room. Except for the two kangs that are no longer in use, everything is basically the same. Zhao Yiyi said: In winter, I don't know if it will be too cold to live outside. After all, although the house outside is nice, there is no heated kang upstairs. I'm afraid the floor will not be able to bear the weight of the heated kang. The wooden beds are used, so they should be kept for now, in case the cold is unbearable in winter, maybe they will have to live back in the cave to resist the cold wind!

It was because of this that An Dalang didn't move anything. Of course, he also had other considerations in his heart. He thought that if there were guests at home, this cave could at least accommodate people.Right as a guest room.

This time when he started the house, An Dalang reorganized his cave that was used as an inn. It was not that he changed anything inside, but that he reorganized the yard outside and set up a cave on the slope at the entrance of the yard. He bought a barn, and then he thought about it, if someone came to stay with their animals that day, there must be a place for them to put them, right? I also made one next to the hut in my yard, it was for my own house. Mule's.

There is also a hot spring, and An Dalang also made a wooden house, which he made by himself, without inviting anyone, and a small room, which is the place for his sundries, buckets for bathing, basins, and a place for washing The shelf for clothes, a door was also made at the entrance of the hot spring cave, and the partition shelf inside was remade, and a shallow ditch was dug out of the pool of the hot spring, and two large pools were dug in the middle of the moon bend. Come out, it is very convenient to bring hot water over, firstly, it can cool down the hot water that makes people turn into red shrimps, and secondly, I want to avoid going to the pool to take a bath, which will dirty the hot spring, so In addition, a drainage ditch has been prepared, and the bath water will be led out in the future.He is trying his best to make his three-acre land better and more comfortable.

"After a few years, I'll put more effort into saving money. I'm thinking of building a few houses at the entrance of this hot spring. Last time, Catcher Cai said that it's not convenient for many big families in the town to take a bath in winter. If it can be done well , he went to talk to those people, those fastidious people might not come to live for a day or something, so we can collect some money."

An Dalang grinned and thought about it with a smile, and Zhao Yiyi understood what it meant when he heard it. Isn't this a hot spring villa? I can't find any allusions to be involved. It is estimated that some landowners who like to enjoy themselves can come here, and no officials will think of coming to live.

But no matter what, it's a good idea, as long as it doesn't make people want to snatch it, this place can also become a treasure for the family to make money.

"If that's the case, Dalang, we need to spend more time with Cai Butou and the county magistrate in the future. If someone likes such a good place, we may not be able to keep it."

"Catcher Cai said that this place is good, but it's a pity that it's too close to a deep mountain, and there are bears and wolves nearby, it's too dangerous, and the mountain road is not easy to walk, and it's a bit off the beaten path. Those rich people probably don't have much to ask for." His thoughts. Otherwise, he would not have dared to ask me to do this."

"That's good. Anyway, Catcher Cai is also a powerful figure in this area. With his help, we can rest assured. But why is he so kind to us?"

Although at the beginning of human beings, nature is good, but Zhao Yiyi is still very puzzled, is it possible that Catcher Cai is really a good person for the country and the people?No selfishness at all?Fortunately, An Dalang immediately answered this question:
"I heard that his father used to be a headhunter, but he was old and his legs and feet were not good, so he took the position. This time, our wolf bone recipe was very useful. He went back and gave it to his father for a month. He My father's legs and feet, which were originally unable to walk, are now able to walk on the ground, and Catcher Cai said that thanks to us giving such a unique secret recipe, he asked me to find him in the future if I have anything to do, and he will support me."

Stupid people have stupid blessings!This is climbing up the local snake!Zhao Yiyi blinked her eyes, and suddenly felt that it wasn't that people said she had a prosperous life, but that this man himself was a very lucky person!

"As for the county magistrate, my lord said that when the prescription sent up arrived in the capital, some important people in the palace would use it, so they agreed, otherwise they wouldn't have rewarded us with so much silver. For this lord, I have also won the praise of the higher-ups. Daughter-in-law, how do you think these grown-ups are so rich? The price is 100 taels, really, enough for us to spend for a lifetime."

Yes, the silver reward for the prescription offering wolf bones was never a few taels, dozens of taels, but 100 taels, but no one outside knew this number, because the silver was given by An Dalang personally by the county magistrate. This is why An Dalang's family is so confident and built the house so well.I just heard An Dalang say that the 100 taels is so much, but Zhao Yiyi still wanted to sigh. People who have never seen the big world are like this, and they regard this little benefit as greater than the sky. In fact, Zhao Yiyi I knew it in my heart, I was afraid that the silver that was put down at that time was not one thousand but eight hundred, but at the end, after layers of deductions, it became one hundred. , I'm afraid that even this credit can be directly given to people.No one was silenced, it was all kindness.

"What do you want to do with so much money? Anyway, we can collect enough money to spend now. The family used a lot this time, and there is 80 taels of silver left. Dalang, I have hidden it. We will not move if there is nothing to do in the future." , right as if you don’t have this silver.”

"I know, didn't you say that you were afraid of being stolen, so you used all the money to build the house. I understand your thoughts. Keep the money. We will have children and raise children in the future. It all depends on these."

The more An Dalang talked, the more he felt that life was getting better, he couldn't help stretching out his hand to hold Zhao Yiyi's little hand, and giggled happily.Having a wife and children, a house and food, savings and property, this is the life of a person!

The An family has changed a lot, but there are also many families who have followed him. For example, the Lin family, seeing An Dalang building a house, Uncle Lin was also very jealous. He pooled the family's money for a long time, and asked An Dalang to borrow twelve taels. , he finally decided to build a house. He built three main rooms in his yard. He didn't think about building a second floor or anything. The reason is very simple. The cave in his house is really big, and the entrance is also loose. Well, with the current population of their family, they really don’t need to borrow space from above. If they feel that these three rooms are not enough to live in that day, they can just build a wing room outside.Although this time it was just an earthen embryo house and the roof was made of bamboo, but even so, Uncle Lin still couldn't see his eyes with a smile. No matter how comfortable this cave is for the people in the mountains, they still want to live in a decent house.

The biggest change is in Dingshan Village. It took them a month to mobilize all the people in the village, and finally completed the plan of the enclosure. One family is connected to another. Although it looks a bit crowded, they make the most of it. After taking over their land, all the places closest to the small lake in the middle that had been gradually encroached on were vacated again. This made the village chief of Dingshan Village heave a long sigh of relief. This is the most important water source for their village. If it wasn't really helpless, he would never want to destroy it in the slightest.Because of their mountain situation, some places in this enclosure have three floors. With the help of rocks, although the house looks a bit steep and dangerous, you will find it when you really live in it. There is no need to worry about safety.Even the mountain pass, the place where the main entrance of the village is, the high watchtower, gave the whole village an unexpected sense of security.Who let them be near where the bears haunted!No matter how good Orion is, he feels a little uneasy.

Waiting for everyone to finally calm down from the upsurge of building houses, autumn is here, golden waves of wheat began to appear in the fields, and Zhao Qian came to Andalang's house again, the reason is simple, An Dalang and Zhao The day of Yiyi's consummation is coming, and she, a mother, is going to teach her daughter the last lesson.
