Traveling through the famine, I stockpiled supplies like crazy

Chapter 362 Selling Tiles

The next morning, the couple set off early. When they came to the county town this time, they obviously felt that there were a lot more people in the county town than before.

There are more shops along the street than before, a large part of which are newly opened shops, and the variety of things they sell is much more than before.

I think the people probably don’t know that the war is going to break out, otherwise they wouldn’t be living and working in peace and contentment like they do now.

However, rich and powerful people may know some things, but after all, this place is quite far from the border, so they may also have some luck.

The two did not wander around the county town, but went straight to Master Yang's house.

Before entering the courtyard, Lu Chuan shouted excitedly outside, "Is Master Yang home?"

"Hey, you're at home, come in." Master Yang agreed as he walked out.

Seeing that it was Lu Chuan and Xu Han, he quickly put on a smile and said, "I guess you will be here in the next two days. The boat is ready and parked at the dock. I'll take you over to have a look."

Lu Chuan said with a smile, "It seems that we came at the right time. When we came, we were afraid that we would come here in vain if we didn't do it well."

"Hahaha, what a coincidence, isn't it? It was just completed two days ago. I've already put it into the water to test and found no leaks. The accessories inside the boat have also been completed."

The few of them walked forward while talking, and after a few steps they arrived at the pier that Master Yang had mentioned.

Xu Han saw a brand new medium-sized ship docked at the dock from a distance, and thought that this was the new ship that her family had ordered.

"This is the boat. Go up and take a look to see if you like it. If you don't like it, I'll make some changes."

Upon hearing this, Lu Chuan and Xu Han couldn't wait to get on the boat. Xu Han looked left and right, touched it with his hands and liked it very much.

"Not bad, not bad. This boat is very carefully made, without any burrs at all."

"It's quite nice, and the space is large. Now we can seat a few more people."

"It's quite good. All the accessories are inside. There is also a small low table where I can put some snacks and tea." Xu Han said happily as she liked it more and more the more she looked at it.

Lu Chuan checked the quality of the boat again, and seeing that there was no problem, the two of them got off the boat.

Master Yang saw the two people coming out and asked hurriedly, "How is it? Is there anything that needs to be modified?"

Lu Chuan praised, "Very good, Master Yang's craftsmanship is still so good, this boat is made very carefully, it can be seen that he put a lot of effort into it."

"Hahaha, as long as you are satisfied, we have already tested this boat and there is no problem. If there are any problems later, you can come to me. I will repair it for ten years."

"Okay, then we'll make it through today."

After saying this, Lu Chuan handed the balance to Master Yang and then rowed the boat away.

The two men rowed the boat a little further away and went to buy tiles together. There were many people building houses in the county recently and a lot of tiles were used, so there were no extra tiles to sell to the two men.

Now, tiles need to be booked in advance. Xu Han and Lu Chuan didn't want to make an extra trip, so Lu Chuan simply gave the manager some more money and asked him to help get some tiles.

Seeing that Lu Chuan had added a lot of money, the manager solved the problem very quickly and was very enthusiastic in helping to send him to the dock.

After buying the tiles, the two of them didn't stay for long and started heading home directly.

When they arrived at the place, Xu Han was afraid that such a large ship would attract too much attention, so he put the ship into the space just in case.

I was also afraid that someone would see me and blow me away. After all, if someone really saw me in this deep mountain, my family wouldn’t be able to discover it in time.

Although the boat was docked not far from home, they did not come here every day.

It is safer to put it at home. You can put it here when the situation stabilizes later.

But it’s not possible at the moment. It’s better to stay safe at this critical juncture.

After all, it is better to have less trouble than more. There is no need to push the boat back home. It is not difficult to put it directly into the space, so you don’t have to worry about it every day.

When the two arrived home, the Taoist priest, Grandpa Zhao and the children were planting sweet potatoes in the wasteland outside.

Mu'er saw her mother and father from a distance, "Mom and Dad."

Lu Chuan hugged Mu'er who ran over and asked, "Have you been obedient at home today?"

Mu'er said happily, "She was very obedient. I even helped her plant sweet potatoes."

"Mu'er is awesome!"

"You guys are really fast. You've prepared all the land in just one day, and you've even started planting sweet potatoes."

As Xu Han spoke, she walked closer and picked up Ze'er, who was babbling and rushing forward on the ground.

Grandpa Zhao answered questions while digging the hole, "Hahahaha, thanks to the cow that the Taoist bought. If it weren't for this cow, the two of us would probably still be digging the soil now."

Seeing this, Lu Chuan put Mu'er down and started picking up tools to help the Taoist priest make ridges.

"Hahaha, that's true. The last time I planted sweet potatoes, it was much slower than this."

After holding Ze'er for a while, Xu Han also started planting sweet potatoes. The family cooperated very well and actually finished planting all the land before dark.

In the evening, everyone was tired after a whole day. Xu Han did not cook dinner, but directly took out some main dishes from the space, and everyone had a sumptuous dinner together.

The Taoist priest said, "After the sweet potatoes are planted, the work in the field has come to an end. Starting tomorrow, we will continue to build the house."

Xu Han suggested, "We have already bought the tiles. Let's lay them first, and then lay the bluestone slabs piled up in the yard. After that, we can continue to collect bluestone, otherwise there will be no room in the yard."

"I think it's okay. Let's do it this way first. If there are any adjustments needed later, we can deal with it later." So several people started to get busy again.

There was not much farm work to do at home throughout the summer, but the few people did not sit idle and all devoted themselves to the renovation of the backyard.

Two months have passed in the blink of an eye. It is now the end of July. Summer is coming to an end and the temperature is not as hot as before.

This summer, several people paved the backyard and the outside of the courtyard wall with new bluestone slabs.

The path in front of the courtyard gate has been planned, and we just need to start paving the bluestone slabs when we have time.

The speed of the few people was much faster than expected. Apart from the daily weeding and watering, they were also mining bluestone and splitting bluestone slabs. They had no idle time at all.

So we had plenty of time to do these tasks during this period, and finally the backyard was renovated before the autumn harvest, and even the bluestone slabs were paved at the gate.

In addition to paving the road, the fruits in the orchard also ripened a lot. Xu Han picked them all and put them in the space.
