What kind of girl would travel to another world?
Chapter 148: You Jiahui and Yang Mingyi's daily life. - Hiding from each other
The previous chapter mentioned that the construction of the mansion on You Jiahui's territory has been completed.
Just when You Jiahui was about to leave, two people suddenly came. They were Di Wuan and Torsi, who were from the adventure team that went to the dungeon with You Yang before.
The two men who had arrived at the mansion had been struggling with poverty for the past few days, having suffered heavy losses at the gambling parlor. Their other teammate, Ulybian, had been away from the capital for several days, on a mission to unlock a treasure chest.
So, the two people, who were at their wit's end, could only come to You Jiahui. Coincidentally, You Jiahui's mansion had just been completed, so she let them stay overnight.
It was already the next morning, just after Di Wuan and Torsi had spent a night in the newly built mansion.
The horse farm at the Stilas Odin Palace started busy early in the morning.
You Jiahui had called Yang Mingyi yesterday, planning to move their belongings to their own territory this morning. Yang Mingyi had also asked Shen Ren at the horse ranch to prepare the carriage early that morning.
From the beginning, You Jiahui had planned to move to the mansion on her territory with her only friend in the other world, Yang Mingyi. Coincidentally, Yang Mingyi could also drive a carriage, which was very helpful in the "moving" process.
Seeing Yang Mingyi carrying so many things onto the carriage, You Jiahui questioned Yang Mingyi, saying, "Yang Mingyi, you've only been here a few months, how come you have so many things?"
Yang Mingyi told You Jiahui innocently, "These were all gifts from the princess. We definitely can't just throw them away after moving."
You Jiahui then asked Yang Mingyi, "Did you tell the princess that we're moving out today?"
Yang Mingyi's face was slightly flustered as she told You Jiahui, "I did! But the princess said the room is still reserved for me, and I can come back and live there anytime."
As soon as Yang Mingyi finished speaking, anyone could tell from her expression that she was not telling the truth.
So, Yang Mingyi added, "I'm still learning magic. It wouldn't be convenient to run back and forth like this every day. It would be better to have a room here."
You Jiahui didn't look at Yang Mingyi's expression at this moment, so naturally she didn't realize that Yang Mingyi wasn't telling the truth. She muttered, "Oh...that's right." Then she suddenly remembered what she had told Yang Mingyi earlier.
You Jiahui suddenly put on a very serious expression and asked Yang Mingyi seriously, "Speaking of magic, have you learned the 'Identification Technique'?"
When Yang Mingyi heard the word "identification," she suddenly remembered that she had been putting this off for too long. She quickly tried to cover it up, saying, "Alas... I can't find it. The library is so huge, I'll have to keep looking. Si Jijie gave me a clue earlier, but it wasn't much help."
Yang Mingyi was lying outright. If you rewind and read the previous chapters, you'll see she was so busy hanging out with the two trainee mages that she completely forgot what Si Jijie had said, and then forgot about it again. It was only when You Jiahui mentioned it that she remembered.
You Jiahui was silent for a moment, then said to Yang Mingyi, "Oh... okay. Fortunately, I won't need it anytime soon."
Of course that's not necessary, they won't be going to the dungeon again in the short term.
The two girls were rushing around, chatting away. Luckily, the nimble Shen Ren was there to help, allowing them to set off early for the newly built mansion.
Yang Mingyi drove a horse-drawn carriage to You Jiahui's residence, and just then several horse-drawn carriages carrying goods also arrived.
What kind of goods are these? Don’t forget that when You Jiahui brought back the “furniture” from the dungeon, there were many construction workers in the territory watching.
So if you want to perform this, you have to do it in full.
Afterwards, You Jiahui quickly ordered a batch of furniture, which was delivered this morning. If it had been delivered yesterday, the construction workers could have seen it.
As soon as You Jiahui got out of the car, the delivery people saw the "Knight's Medal" she was wearing and immediately saluted her.
Di Wuan and Torsi also hurried out after hearing the sound of carriages and horses outside.
When You Jiahui saw two members of the adventure team coming out, she said to them, "Come on! Let's move together!"
When Yang Mingyi saw two of her former "acquaintances" coming out of the mansion, she quickly greeted them with a smile and went over to shake their hands.
You Jiahui immediately stopped Yang Mingyi and said, "Alright! Let's wait for the formalities, let's get to work first!"
Yang Mingyi's "enthusiasm" was extinguished by You Jiahui's "cold water".
At You Jiahui's command, the delivery people and the two people from the adventure team started working together.
It took almost a whole morning for these people to put all the furniture into the newly built mansion.
Why did it take so long? It was because these two girls had so many ideas. One thought this would be better, the other said that would be better. Not only that, they even had their own preferences for the direction of the furniture placement, and they wouldn't compromise at all.
Even though these two girls made moving so troublesome, those who helped move the furniture didn't dare to leave.
The two members of the adventure team had originally come to You Jiahui's aid, so they naturally wouldn't walk away. As for the deliverymen, they knew You Jiahui was a noble, so they naturally didn't dare to offend her, so they wouldn't quit.
In this way, these two groups of people could only move around with these two girls.
So, these people just wasted an entire morning doing nothing but moving furniture inefficiently.
After all the furniture was put in place, the deliverymen drove away in their respective carriages.
After watching the carriages leave, You Jiahui finally breathed a sigh of relief. She turned to the two members of the adventure team and said, "It's time to talk about what happened yesterday."
Di Wuan and Torsi were not much different from the day before. They still exchanged awkward glances, and then Torsi started the conversation, and the two took turns recounting what had happened.
Afterward, the two members of the adventure team recounted their earlier loss at the gambling house, not going into detail about the young nobleman, but simply stating that dungeon quests were difficult to get. After all, You Jiahui had personally been to the dungeon with them and was familiar with their abilities, which made their story quite convincing.
After the two members of the adventure team finished speaking, Yang Mingyi said with emotion: "Alas... gambling is harmful."
Torsi said to You Jiahui, "We both deeply regret this, but we really can't think of any other solution."
Di Wuan muttered, "It was just a little short of winning, why did I start losing later on..."
It can be seen that Di Wuan is still unwilling to lose money.
Torsi said to You Jiahui with a helpless look on his face: "If the Knight doesn't take us in, we really have nowhere to go."
When You Jiahui heard this, she almost couldn't hold back her laughter, and thought to herself, "So they're out of money? I thought they were in some terrible trouble. When I talked to the president before, he said that the territory needed guards, private armed forces, personal followers, etc...." Thinking of this, she had the idea of recruiting this "adventure team" as her own subordinates.
You Jiahui said to the two members of the adventure team, "Alright! You can stay here from now on. The territory needs more manpower."
After hearing this, Di Wuan and Torsi were of course very happy and thanked You Jiahui repeatedly.
Yang Mingyi said to the two members of the adventure team very enthusiastically: "Welcome aboard! Congratulations!" As she said that, she was about to hug and shake hands with them, but in the middle she changed her stance to clasp her fists to congratulate them.
Di Wuan and Torsi were completely flustered by Yang Mingyi's "one move, three consecutive moves." Finally, they imitated Yang Mingyi's fist-clasping gesture and said to her, "Congratulations, congratulations!"
After some pleasantries, Yang Mingyi asked the two members of the adventure team, "Are you all going to live here from now on?"
You Jiahui was tired of seeing the three of them being so polite, so she directly asked Yang Mingyi, "Aren't you talking nonsense? They must live here. This mansion is so big, there shouldn't be a shortage of rooms, right?"
Di Wuan said to You Jiahui, "Sir Knight, I plan to build a house myself and do some blacksmith work in the future."
Yang Mingyi suddenly showed a look of disgust and said to Di Wuan, "Captain, you also have a hobby of blacksmithing? You can't live here, it's too noisy."
You Jiahui thought for a moment and said to Di Wuan, "That's fine. There's a large area not far from the mansion where they're going to build a village. You can work as a blacksmith there. It's a good fit. Perfect! I'll take you there later."
After You Jiahui finished speaking, everyone turned their attention to Torsi. Everyone meant to ask Torsi: What are you going to do?
Torsi said to You Jiahui: "I haven't planned anything yet. I'll see what the Knight arranges..."
You Jiahui said to Torsi, "Then you can be the housekeeper of my mansion first, and I will arrange for you to do other things later."
In this way, two people from the adventure team officially joined You Jiahui's territory and became members of You Jiahui's camp.
Later, Di Wuan decided to open a blacksmith shop and do some patrol work on the side. Torsi's role became relatively more important later, but that's all for later. And Ulybian also joined You Jiahui's camp, but we'll talk about that in detail later.
After the four of them had lunch together at the mansion, it was soon afternoon.
Just as she had said in the morning, You Jiahui brought the other three people to the reserved area for the village construction.
This was a plan You Jiahui had previously agreed with the Merchants Guild's president, Putuo Yare. The Merchants Guild would provide the funds and labor, using local materials to build a large number of wooden houses. Afterwards, You Jiahui would deduct a portion of the rent collected and give it to the Merchants Guild as rent.
You Jiahui and the chairman discussed this mainly to attract more people and labor to farm the land. Otherwise, it would be useless if there was no one to farm the land.
You Jiahui said to Yang Mingyi, who was driving the carriage, "Mingyi! We're here! This is it!"
Yang Mingyi stopped the carriage and turned to You Jiahui and said, "You said it wasn't far from the mansion. I think it's not far from the bridge."
The bridge that Yang Mingyi was talking about was the bridge connecting the two sides of the river that they had driven past many times before.
As You Jiahui got out of the car, she said to Yang Mingyi, "There will be other villages in the territory in the future, and they'll be much farther away than here."
As Yang Mingyi got out of the car, she muttered, "Oh, so that's it." Then she asked You Jiahui, "Where are the other villages?"
You Jiahui was too lazy to explain too much and told Yang Mingyi directly, "We'll know after it's built. The first village hasn't even started construction yet." As she spoke, she crossed her arms out of habit.
At this moment, a group of people also arrived here.
You Jiahui recognized the supervisor, Okri, from a distance. She quickly waved to him, indicating that she was waiting there.
It was seen that this supervisor Oakley had just left with a team of construction workers yesterday, and today he brought another team of unfamiliar faces to You Jiahui's territory.
When the supervisor Oakley came up to her, he and a group of people saluted You Jiahui.
When You Jiahui saw that this team included both men and women, and they were all half-elves, she was naturally very surprised.
You Jiahui kindly said to the group, "From now on, you don't have to bow when you work!"
As they spoke, the group began to get busy under the instructions of the supervisor Oakley.
You Jiahui and the others watched as the group of people worked diligently, which was much more spectacular than the scale of their furniture moving in the morning.
You Jiahui, who had been watching for a long time, took advantage of the fact that there was no one around Supervisor Oakley. She went up to him and asked, "Oakley, did you find new staff so quickly?"
Seeing You Jiahui walking over, the other three people around her naturally followed.
Overseer Oakley told You Jiahui, "I don't know where the president found so many people. It's perfect timing, just after your mansion is finished. The president said it would only take about seven days to build sixty houses."
After hearing this, You Jiahui and the three people around her were stunned and couldn't find words to speak for a moment.
Yang Mingyi let out a long "Wow...", then raised her head and began to imagine what it would look like if sixty houses "grew" on this large open space.
After the shock subsided, You Jiahui said to the supervisor, Okri, "That's great! You should start building the houses today!"
Supervisor Okri said to You Jiahui, "Look, the designer has already drawn a blueprint for us." He then took out the blueprint and continued, "We're here this afternoon to draw the lines. We'll then build the houses according to the lines. We expect to officially start construction tomorrow morning. There are also many other miscellaneous tasks that we need to arrange in advance."
You Jiahui nodded and said to the supervisor, Oakley, "Then get started as soon as possible!"
Yang Mingyi imitated You Jiahui's tone and said to the supervisor, Oakley, "Yes! You do it! We won't make things worse!"
