Our island owner is always playing dead

Chapter 49 Building a Wooden House

The carriage stopped by the side of the road, and Ye Limo took a closer look at the house. The house was not very big, but it looked very strong, much stronger than the shed.

Ye Limo also saw this kind of house when he traveled to Thailand. It is a bit like a couple's house built by the sea. It is all built with logs. The quality is not particularly good. It is definitely not as good as a house built with stones, but it is much better than a shed.

Ye Limo couldn't help patting himself on the head again and again, why didn't he think of this.

The steward looked at Ye Limo worriedly and asked, "Your Majesty, what's wrong with you? Do you think such a house can't be built?"

Ye Limo shook his head again and again, and said: "No, no, Bruce, I'm blaming myself, why didn't I think of this sooner. I've always thought about building stone houses for the people so that they have a place to shelter from wind and rain. So, I have forgotten that it will take a long time to trim so many stone houses. During this time, they live in sheds, and they will still be infested by mosquitoes, and it is still difficult to sleep on rainy nights. And the wooden houses, built It looks much simpler than a stone house, but it can still shelter from the wind and rain, and even if it can’t live for 100 years, it can still give the people a place to live in these years. How could I forget this?”

Seeing Ye Limo's expression of helplessness, sigh and regret, the steward comforted him and said, "Your Majesty, it's not too late for you to think about it now."

The houses Ye Limo lived in before were all made of stone and bricks, and he had never lived in a wooden house. It is understandable that he did not think of this.

Ye Limo nodded and said: "Yes, it's not too late to think about it now, Bruce, go and invite that lumberjack here, I want to ask something."

After the butler took the order, he immediately got out of the car and went to look for the former lumberjack.

After a while, the former lumberjack was found by the housekeeper.

Seeing this short and strong man, Ye Limo thought, no wonder he was able to build such a log cabin by himself.

"I have seen His Majesty the King!" The voice was also loud and crisp.

Yerimer responded, "Hello, Mr. Puller, your house looks very nice."

"Yes, Your Majesty, I will use [-]-inch thick wooden piles as supports and bury them deep into the ground to support my house. As long as there are no flash floods or major earthquakes, my house will be fine."

This Mr. Puller probably said this because he had never seen a storm at sea.

"How long did it take you to build this house?"

"It took more than a month, Your Majesty, because no one helped me, I cut down trees, chopped trees, and built a house, all by myself."

"Didn't your family help you?"

Puller shook his head: "No, Your Majesty, my wife and children are still young, and my mother is weak. I can't rely on them. I can only build a house by myself. The reason why I asked to build a wooden house is because my mother can't blow the wind. , even if it is a hot wind like a hot island, she can't blow it, everything is for the mother's body."

It's really hard for this man to support his family. There are old and young, and during the house repairs, he has to do other jobs to earn labor points for food, right?

Ye Limo said: "You are a good son, Mr. Puller. During this time, I will ask you for help. Please wait for my summons."

Puller hurriedly saluted and said, "Yes, Your Majesty the King."

When Ye Limo returned to his residence, he sent someone to find the old man Hagen who was working on the construction site of the palace. Now he is eager to plan the living area of ​​the people, build houses for the people, and let everyone Everyone can have a shelter from wind and rain.

Hagen's old friend rushed over sweating profusely, and saw Ye Limo looking at the plan at the table.

"I have seen His Majesty." Old man Hagen saluted.

Without Ye Limo's orders, the butler brought a glass of cool fruit juice, and old man Hagen drank it down after serving it, feeling much more comfortable.

"Your Majesty, what do you want from me?"

Ye Limo said: "When I went out today, I saw someone built a wooden house by himself."

Old Man Hagen listened carefully.

"I think that house is very good. Although it is not as strong as a stone house, it can shelter everyone from the wind and rain. It is also very good. It is worse than the current shed. And it does not take more time to clean than a wooden house. Build."

Old man Hagen quickly understood what Ye Limo meant: "Your Majesty, do you want to build some wooden houses for everyone to live in?"

Ye Limo nodded: "Yes, Hagen, food, clothing, housing and transportation are the foundation of everyone's life. Clothes and food have almost been solved, and we have built a big road for travel. The only problem is housing. Now please You came here to discuss the area of ​​the school, hospital, and square, so as to facilitate the determination of where the wooden house can be built."

Old man Hagen originally thought that Ye Limo needed him to supervise the construction of the wooden house, but he didn't expect that he was only asked to discuss the plan.

The old man Hagen proposed to build a square, and Ye Limo also felt that there is indeed a need for a place for everyone to relax and entertain. The city often holds parties and the like, and it is convenient to have a square.

The location of the square was chosen near King's Harbor, and the school and hospital were also planned to be built here, but it was a little further back. Both schools and hospitals needed quiet places. If they were close to the port, they would be too noisy.

The old man Hagen told Ye Limo about his vision for the square: "In the square, there must be a statue. Your Majesty, you are the perfect candidate for the statue."

There are squares in many cities, and there are statues in the squares, some are statues of kings, some are statues of heroes, and statues of mythical figures are drawn from different materials.Ye Limo, as the first king of the hot island, as the person who brought everyone into a beautiful and happy life, it is normal for everyone to erect a statue for him.

Ye Limo said: "At that time, you can only use stones to make statues? Metal is a scarce commodity on the island, and there is no one who can use copper to make statues."

Old Man Hagen said: "It is true, Your Majesty, but we can replace the statue with copper in the future. In any case, you will be the greatest and wisest king in our hearts."

Ye Limo said that he deserved it.

Except for public places like hospitals and schools, there are no other places that need to be placed near the square for the time being. If there are other public places that need to be built in the future, they should be redesigned in the future.

After confirming the plan, old man Hagen asked, "Your Majesty, who are you going to hire to be responsible for the construction of the wooden house?"

Ye Limo put away the plan and said: "There is already a very suitable candidate, Hagen, don't worry, your job is to finish the palace first, and there are hospitals, squares, schools, hotels and stone bridges waiting for you." Woolen cloth!"

These are not small projects, enough for old man Hagen to work on for several years.

The old man Hagen smiled slyly, and said: "Your Majesty's favorite candidate is definitely not wrong. I'm just curious, and I want to know which lucky person has been favored by His Majesty."

Ye Limo didn't care about his little thoughts. Puller's construction ability is different from that of old man Hagen who came out of a real school, and the two people's abilities don't conflict at all.

Ye Limo didn't shy away either, and asked the guards to invite Pu Le.

Old man Hagen was a little disappointed when he saw the real person. He didn't see where this hulking man had any architectural talent.

Ye Limo said directly: "Mr. Puller, I invited you here to give you a job."

Puller said: "It is an honor to work for Your Majesty, please make it clear."

Ye Limo didn't go around and said directly: "Your wooden house is very beautiful, much better than the current shed. I hope you can take charge of this work and build wooden houses for everyone."

Puller didn't expect this at all. He knew that Ye Limo asked about his wooden house. In fact, he was more worried that Ye Limo would order the wooden house to be demolished. After all, his wooden house was compared with other people's sheds , It is really not in line with everyone's consistency.His father was a lumberjack, so he was a lumberjack, and he had learned the trade of building and repairing log houses from his father, and he never thought that this skill would help him get such a job before the king.

After being stunned for a while, Puller hurriedly agreed: "Yes! Your Majesty the King! I will definitely do this job well for you!"

Ye Limo said: "You haven't heard about the reward for this job yet!"

Puller laughed, appearing to be more simple and honest, and said: "I heard that His Majesty the King never treats everyone badly. I believe that His Majesty will not treat me badly in terms of remuneration when he gives me this job."

Ye Limo was a little moved by these words, the trust of the people showed that what he did as a king was quite qualified.

"Very well, Mr. Puller, thank you for your trust, and I will not treat you badly. As a consul, you will definitely be paid more than others."

Puller accepted the new job without any hesitation or caring about the salary, which made Ye Limo very happy.The Puller family are all refugees, and they have been in the heat island for less than two months. They can trust themselves so much, which makes Ye Limo feel that the king is still popular, and he has done a good job in this very challenging job.

"Your Majesty, shall I start working tomorrow?" Puller was eager to try.

Ye Limo said: "This work is definitely not done by you alone. You can recruit as many people as you think you need. By the way, when building houses, please build houses of different sizes according to the number of people in your family. If so, it can meet the needs of different families.”

Puller thought for a while and said, "I see, Your Majesty, thank you again for this job, and I will definitely do my best to do it well."

After Puller left, old man Hagen said: "What a simple and industrious young man."

Ye Limo agreed: "He is still a very responsible person. What do you think of entrusting him with such a job?"

"It's very suitable, Your Majesty. Puller's performance once again proves that you are a very discerning person." Old man Hagen began to sycophant naked.

Ye Limo glanced at the smiling butler, and said intentionally: "That's true, Hagen, but Bruce taught me this vision and cleverness!"
