After Luo Meng and Xiao Shulin went down the mountain, they called Luo Hongfeng. They heard that Houwazi was at the blacksmith shop. The two went back to their hut to take a shower, and then went to the courtyard to eat something before driving into their pickup. Car, went to the blacksmith shop.

When Luo Meng and the others entered the yard, Houwazi was squatting at the corner of the chess table scratching his head. On the chess table, there were two pigeon eggs on one side and two chestnuts on the other side. This was probably their betting money for this game.

"Father." Houwazi's eyes lit up when he saw them coming.

"Ahem." Old Zhou cleared his throat, and acted like a turtle with a shrunken head in a sensible way, "Dad can't." At the usual level, he and Xiao Shulin are not enough for him to clean up. For a while, he was helpless.

"Huh..." Hearing what he said, Houwazi slowly retracted his stretched neck.

"Where do you want to go?" Lao Chang urged him again.

Houwazi returned to the chess game, looked at his few black pieces on the board again and again, and finally captured a pawn of Lao Chang with his horse.

"You can think it over." Lao Chang had a smirk on his face.

"Yeah." Houwazi nodded.

"That's fine, then you don't have this horse anymore." Lao Chang pulled out a cart from the corner, and after eating Houwazi's horse, he became another general.

"..." Houwazi scratched his ears and cheeks again.

"How about it? Do you want to admit defeat?" Old Chang said with a chuckle: "If you admit defeat, just keep these two chestnuts, and let's start the round again."

"No more playing." Houwazi put the chess pieces on the table.

"Are you afraid? Don't, or how about I let you have two guns and two cars?" Lao Chang offered him attractive conditions again.

"Don't play." Unmoved, Houwazi took out a few chestnuts from his arms and peeled them to eat. Fortunately, he didn't bet all the chestnuts just now.

"You monkey boy, you're quite smart." Lao Chang smiled, and also took the two chestnuts on the table, peeled them and ate them.

Luo Meng hugged the monkey boy, and said a few words to Lao Chang, Xiao Shulin and Boss Xiao and the others also said a few words to see that it was getting late, and the father and son went out of the blacksmith shop.

"Houwazi likes to play chess?" In the car, Xiao Shulin held the steering wheel and asked Houwazi in the back seat.

"I like it." Houwazi replied frankly. Although he felt sorry for his chestnut, he really thought playing chess was very interesting.

"Then if you have nothing to do in the future, let the fat uncle get you some food and bring it here, and play chess with Grandpa Chang." Luo Meng said.If Lao Chang is willing to teach their monkey children, that little food is nothing at all.

Back home, after Houwazi washed up and went to bed, Xiao Shulin went to look through the bag of Qiuzi again.

"What do you want to do this time?" Romon asked him.

"Make a chess set for Houwazi." Xiao Shulin answered Romon while searching for suitable walnuts.

"Let's do it tomorrow, it's late today."

"I'm not tired, you go to bed first." Xiao Shulin didn't turn his head.

"Not tired?" Romon raised his eyebrows, and leaned over to nibble on the back of his neck.

Xiao Shulin laughed and put the walnuts in his hand: "Go, go to sleep."

In the next period of time, Luo Meng was busy with the two stilted buildings on the mountain. He didn't ask Xiao Shulin to help, but asked him to pick up and pick up Monkey Boy every day. When he was not free, he had to drive alone. The cow went up the mountain to feed the monkey.

In order to obtain more cheap labor, Lao Zhou yelled on the Tongcheng Forum before starting construction, saying that he wanted to build two stilted buildings on Niubei Peak. Netizens are welcome to come to Niuwangzhuang to make suggestions and sweat.Those people in the jar heard that the old Zhou's family had a new project, and all of them burst into flames, screaming to go to Niuwangzhuang.

"Count me in! I must be counted in!"

"I have to go this time too! The cowshed we built last time, now whenever I pass by it and see my great achievements, I feel very excited."

"Brother shake hands!"

"That's what we built stone by stone."

"But it's a pity that many of the original plans failed to materialize."

"The main reason is that funds are too tight."

"This time, this stilted building must be well designed."

"Yes, there must be zero distance between dreams and reality."

"Old Zhou, how much money do you plan to spend on building this stilted building?"

"Except for labor and necessary building materials, I don't spend a dime." Lao Zhou's words shattered the grand plan of netizens who wanted to build a paradise on his Niubei Peak.

"How did this happen? It cost 10,000+ to repair the cowshed." Some netizens immediately protested.

"The utilization rate of the cowshed is high. The two stilted buildings on the mountain are only used for a few months throughout the year." Lao Zhou's way of thinking about problems has always been so realistic.

"When not in use, you can also rent it out to others as a resort." Someone suggested.

"Come on, if we really want to do that, will Niuwangzhuang be Niuwangzhuang?" No need for Lao Zhou's objection, the netizens refused to agree at first.

"Old Zhou, we must stick to the basic line of economic benefits to the end."

"That's right, it's absolutely impossible to focus on money."

"We only have that little salary a month. If you want to follow the market economy, Lao Zhou, I'm afraid you guys won't be able to keep up."

"If you want me to say that this stilted building is simpler, it's good. Brother, I'm currently teaching myself carpentry. When the time comes, those tables and chairs will look at me."

"We are electricians, so I'll take over the job."

"Brother, I used to run a hardware grocery store. Old Zhou, do you want a toilet? I still have a lot of stock at home. The style is a bit old, but we are cheap."

"If you ask me, in line with the basic principles of energy conservation, environmental protection, naturalness and simplicity, we'd better not even buy pots and pans, and burn them ourselves with some mud."

"That's a good idea. After I gain experience, I might be able to open a pottery shop in Buffalo Town. My brother has long planned to resign and become his own boss."

"..."

Seeing these people getting further and further away, Romon was about to go offline when he saw someone asking him, "Old Zhou, we finished repairing the stilted building this time, should we kill pigs?"

"Kill." Romon said concisely.

"Ow!!!"

"Count me in! I must be counted in!"

"When did you start working?"

"tomorrow."

"No, I have to ask for leave first."

"Our boss is not here, it seems that tomorrow we have to cut it first and then play it."

"..."

The next day, a large group of cheap labor came to Niuwang Village, plus the carpenter and mason that Lao Zhou found through Master Gan, and a few old masters who knew how to build houses, and the courtyard house volunteered to sign up for work on the mountain With a wave of Lao Zhou's hand, everyone loaded up their tools and headed towards the mountain to kill.

"Hey, today is not the weekend, why are you all free?"

"Hi, my job is free."

"We do small business by ourselves, and we can leave at any time after the work is done."

"Yesterday, my wife agreed to help me look at the store for a few days because of my talk and talk."

"..."

"Senior engineer, didn't you say you were going to see your mother-in-law today?"

"Ahem, Mr. Wang, what a coincidence."

"You also came to Niuwangzhuang, why haven't you met before?"

"I come less often."

"Too."

"Boss, didn't you say that you are going to the Southern Standard Project these two days?"

"That's all smoke bombs. That's fine. We've already said hello. Let's do our own thing in a while. Don't tell your colleagues about it when you go back."

"That's for sure."

"..."

All the personnel were divided into two construction teams to build stilted buildings in the two places that Romon and the others were optimistic about. One of the two stilted buildings is on the east side of Shangshui Village, and the other is on the west side of Shangshui Village. The reason for this arrangement is that It is mainly for the convenience of people who live here in the future when working on the mountain, they can work nearby, instead of walking so many mountain roads every day.

Just two days after going up the mountain, some people were responsible for digging foundations and leveling the land, while others were responsible for cutting trees.In the past two years, Luo Meng has planted a lot of fruit trees on Niuwangzhuang, and he will continue to plant them in the future, so he doesn't feel embarrassed to cut a few pieces of wood that are not worth much from the mountain at this moment. If he doesn't cut down some miscellaneous trees, where else can he plant fruit trees?

This time, the stilted building was finally built in a courtyard model according to Luo Meng’s intention. Many netizens have proposed various plans for him, and even drew the design drawings. However, these ideas and designs are as beautiful as they are beautiful. Yes, it is not very safe.

Building an independent log cabin in this kind of barren mountains and wild places, if some unlucky guy gets up in the middle of the night to go to the toilet, his legs will be limped, and others may not be able to hear his throat.The signal in this mountain is unstable, and the mobile phone signal is good and bad. If something happens casually, it's really not a joke.

Of course, the most important thing is that this kind of stilted building in the quadrangle style can be built faster, the foundation can be divided into one piece, and the small rooms above can be divided into one, saving time and effort.The thorn roses in their house are about to bloom. Of course, Lao Zhou hopes that this stilted building can be built quickly, so as not to miss the flowering period.

However, in some details, these urbanites are still very persistent, such as the design of stairs, corridors, handrails, windows, tables, chairs and benches, and so on.

The three sides of these two stilted buildings are rooms, only the side near the door is not. The men’s and women’s toilets are on the left side of the door, and the men’s and women’s bathrooms are on the right side. It looks no different from other rooms on the outside. Once you enter, you can see The difference is that it is not a wooden structure like each room, but cement tiles.This is also the result of those city people's repeated insistence that the style of the entire building must be unified, and the stilted buildings built by them must be beautiful and harmonious.

When the two stilted buildings on the mountain were basically completed, Zheng Bolun also led a team to pull out the network cables and wires from Shangshui Village.

Zheng Bolun is really an all-around talent. He has paved roads, built bridges, built cowsheds, repaired reservoirs, planted trees and pulled wires. It seems that there is nothing he can't do. Every time he looks at him, Lao Zhou feels that he is the king of cattle. What a lot of talent.

At the end of March in the Gregorian calendar, Luo Xingyou put a new product on their online store, but this time it was not a thing, but a reservation for the "Niuwangzhuang Flower Picking Tour" activity newly launched by the old Zhou family.

The first batch issued a total of 350 places in their online store. It is said that the stilted building he built on the mountain this time has a total of more than 200 rooms. Each room is expected to accommodate two people. It can accommodate nearly 500 people in total. Almost [-] places have been taken by those who help repair the house.

"Niuwangzhuang Flower Picking Tour, you can relax your body and mind without spending money."

"Newly built stilted buildings, one room for two people, couple's room can be arranged, three meals a day are delivered on time from the bottom of the mountain, there is also a small kitchen, pots and pans are all available, there are mushrooms and wild vegetables on the mountain, oil, salt, sauce and vinegar Some vegetables are provided for free."

"Each person picks three kilograms of thorn plum petals per day, free of charge for board and lodging, and the excess will be paid at 30 yuan per kilogram. Those who are interested, please pay attention to the quota distribution on this webpage in the near future. The distribution time is set at 09:30 every morning. Not necessarily every day.”

"This quota cannot be resold, once discovered, it will be permanently blocked."

The introduction to the activities of this flower-picking trip is very simple, but the photos posted below still look good.

Among them are mountain streams, grassland wildflowers, newly built houses on stilts, detailed photos of various rooms, public toilets, bathrooms and kitchens, and patches of budding roses.

However, Zhao Dongling, the customer service representative of the Taobao Direct Store in Dawan Village, suspects that these people did not read the introduction or the photos at all, because the 350 quotas were sold out within a few minutes after she put them on the shelves.
