Locked: God is the matchmaker, neither you nor I can escape

Hua Murong did not give Master Sun too much time to be shocked. They would set off back to Sand City tomorrow, and everything had to be handed over to them tonight.

Fortunately, the blueprints of the manor have been drawn up. When Master Sun saw the stack of blueprints that Hua Murong took out, he knew that it would take at least three or two years to finish!

Master Sun brought a total of five apprentices, which means there are six people in total including him. Therefore, most of the labor needs to be done by hiring local people. Uncle Li is responsible for cooperating with these matters.

As for the bathroom that Yan Yiyi wants to build, it is definitely impossible to make those chamber pots on site. The kiln for burning paper is in Shacheng, and when Yan Yiyi and the others come back, they can bring them back and install them. The pipes must be buried in advance. The housekeeper will arrange for people to transport these things later, but they will arrive in Dashan Village half a month later than them.

The rest of the construction was not difficult, but other people's luxurious houses had to be planned out with beautiful gardens. Yan Yiyi was all about practicality. Others planted ancient pines with good meanings, but she wanted to plant peach blossoms. It was not because she liked them so much, but because the petals of peach blossoms could be used to make wine and peach cakes, and the peaches they produced could be eaten.

Moreover, the peach blossoms are in full bloom, pink and white, and the peach fragrance is intoxicating. As long as you are not allergic to pollen, peach trees are indeed a good choice.

Another point is that other people's gardens are flower gardens where they grow precious and colorful flowers, while Yan Yiyi grows orchards, and the area of ​​the orchard is very large. Yan Yiyi has reserved hundreds of acres of land for the orchard.

In addition to the orchard, Yan Yiyi also set aside ten acres for a medicinal herb garden. He didn't grow any rare herbs, but just some common ones, such as osmanthus leaves, cumin, wolfberry, star anise... Some of them are not available here, but they will be available when they return from Sand City.

Finally, there is the vegetable garden where Yan Yiyi develops and grows new products. He also set aside ten acres of land, and also set aside a few acres to make fish ponds.

Yes, other people’s families built artificial lakes and raised precious and beautiful fish. Yan Yiyi’s family built a pond and raised freshwater fish such as grass carp that are commonly eaten by the people, as well as shrimps and crabs, and planted aquatic plants such as lotus roots.

It cannot be said to be a farm house, after all, it is a private residence. The residential area is the same as that where rich people live, spacious and bright, and the ground is paved with blue bricks.

In addition, in order to have enough space to dry rice, corn and other grains, she laid out two football-sized fields. When there was no need for drying, she would move out the sports equipment such as badminton and football and let the family members play as they pleased. During the harvest season, she would put away the equipment and use the field as a threshing floor.

Dashan Village certainly didn't have enough land to give them such a vast manor, so Hua Murong generously waved his hand and bought the mountain next to Xin Ye's house.

The mountains here do not stand alone. There will be a part of the flat mountain connected to another mountain. Therefore, when the government surveyed, it was planned according to the undulating mountains. The mountain behind Xinye's house is relatively short compared to the mountain behind the mountain, about 500 meters high.

In the past, the villagers of Dashan Village went up the mountain from another steep slope, which could be said to be another mountain, but the boundary between the two mountains was not so obvious, and the villagers would walk to the mountain on this side.

In order to prevent the villagers from mistakenly entering his own forest, Master Sun had to connect the fruit forest on the back mountain with Yan Yiyi's house, and in order to plant fruit trees on the mountain in the future, stairs needed to be built.

The place where Yan Yiyi discovered ginseng was not on this mountain, but on another mountain behind this mountain. Yan Yiyi did not buy that mountain to avoid arousing suspicion. Moreover, even if she did not buy it, most villagers would not go to that mountain, as it was considered a deep mountain area with many ferocious beasts.

Therefore, only someone like her who is brave and has martial arts skills would dare to go into the mountains, which is like her free "back mountain". She just needs to create a fruit mountain to cover up her tracks, so as to avoid being questioned for eating fruits frequently.

That "back mountain" will also be a shield for her fruit mountain. Some fruits, such as lychees, longans, mangoes, Sanhua plums, bayberries... are southern fruits that Yan Yiyi likes to eat very much. In order to allow herself to eat them openly, she will transplant an old tree and plant it on that mountain.

The fruits that are produced in the future will be her payment to nature for acting as a shield, and will benefit the small animals in that area.

This mountain is not entirely planted with fruit trees. Some medicinal herbs can also be planted, but the proportion of medicinal herbs is relatively small. Therefore, Yan Yiyi and others are accustomed to calling it a fruit mountain and a medicinal forest.

As for the pond and vegetable garden, Dashan Village can still buy these lands, but it needs to reclaim the wasteland and then partially rebuild it.

With such a huge workload, they will probably just be able to complete the foundation by the time they return from Sand City.

Master Sun was pulled directly into the house by Hua Murong and his group to discuss matters. They didn't give him any chance to catch his breath. After he finished talking and handed over the work to them, the next morning, the group packed up and got on the carriage to leave Dashan Village.

This time, all the secret guards of the Hua family acted as visible guards to protect the safety of the group. The five carriages were filled with goods. In addition to Hua Murong's luxurious carriage, the Hua brothers and Xin Ye and his wife were sitting in it.

Five people were playing poker in a carriage. Whoever lost would take over. They played for a long time and before they knew it, a whole morning had passed.

Hua Murong's secret guards, who had traveled with Yan Yiyi before, did not need Xin Ye's command. After Hua Bei found a place to rest, the group took the initiative to take out pots and food. Some took the initiative to collect firewood, while others went to look for prey or wild vegetables nearby.

Hua Muxin and Hua Muyu's secret guards were a little surprised when they saw this, but after a month of training at the Li family, they were very good at it and started to get busy too.

The meal was cooked in a big pot in the wild, so Xin Ye didn't need to do anything. The cooking skills of the secret guards were pretty good. Although they were not as good as Xin Ye's, the big pot meal was still pretty good.

As the masters, the five of them continued to play poker while waiting for dinner.

"So this is how you bring the pots, pans, and utensils together and use them!" Hua Muyu had just lost and was now waiting in the wings. He watched the secret guards start to get busy, looked over with curiosity, and sighed.

"According to this process, it will take at least two or three months to return to Sand City?" Hua Muyu turned to look at his eldest brother and asked.

Hua Murong looked at the cards and replied to him with two minds at the same time: "Are you in a hurry to go home?"

Hua Muyu blurted out without thinking: "No, I'm not in a hurry, this speed is very good, I support it!"

Then he whispered, "I'm just afraid that my parents will get anxious waiting for me."

Yan Yiyi didn't want to listen to his nagging, so she gave him a precise answer: "I asked my eldest brother to write a letter to them before, and it is clear that he will arrive before the New Year."

Hua Muyu's heart was completely calmed. Hehe, at least he has his sister to protect him, his parents won't beat him, so he can have fun!
