The hunter's leisurely life begins with marrying a female educated youth.

After leaving the Linshui Mine, Zhang Yun went straight to the tea plantation and arrived at his homestead.

With no one around, Zhang Yun had no reservations and immediately took out all the bamboo strips from the spiritual spring space.

These bamboo strips, cut from Laoshiqiao Village, are more than enough to build a 200-square-meter pergola.

Immediately, Zhang Yun took out the hundreds of cedar trees and placed them on the ground nearby. Moreover, in the spiritual spring space, Zhang Yun used his consciousness as a knife to scrape off all the bark from these cedar trees, and now arranging them here is a way of letting them dry.

"Someone will be coming tomorrow morning, so I need to prepare breakfast in advance."

"We also need to set up a few temporary stoves here."

Zhang Yun thought about it and realized there were so many things to prepare before building the house. He decided to prepare them one by one.

So Zhang Yun used the sharpness of his machete to quickly dig out two stove pits on the nearby land, and then used stones and wet soil to build two simple stove pits.

Tomorrow morning, as long as you bring the iron pot, you can cook on the spot.

After preparing the stove pit, Zhang Yun arrived at his homestead and reached the well.

The pangolin spent the entire afternoon burrowing into the ground, drilling vertically downwards from the surface.

Looking at the location of the well now, the entire underground soil layer has been loosened.

Tomorrow, if we just instruct a few people to clear and remove these layers of soil, we can quickly dig a well.

Suddenly, the pangolin emerged from the ground and rushed to Zhang Yun's feet, nudging them with its head.

This is an attempt to claim credit.

As expected of a beast that consumed 5 speed points, this pangolin is quite intelligent. It has been busy all afternoon and now it wants to ask Zhang Yun for a reward.

"I understand. I'll give you a bamboo tube of spiritual spring water to drink."

Knowing the pangolin's intention, Zhang Yun immediately took out a bamboo tube filled with spiritual spring water.

The pangolin immediately plunged into the bamboo tube and began to greedily drink the spiritual spring water, emptying it completely in just a few seconds.

After a long afternoon of work, the pangolin was quite tired, but after drinking the spiritual spring, it not only regained its strength, but its silvery scales became even shinier and seemed to have become sharper.

Then, Zhang Yun instructed the pangolin to continue drilling, trying to make the well as deep as possible.

After all, Zhang Yun had memories of his previous life. When Qushui Town was established here, a large number of wells were dug, and each well had a sufficient amount of water.

That means there is a water vein at the foot of this tea mountain. As long as we dig deep enough, we don't have to worry about the well water drying up in the future.

The pangolin understood Zhang Yun's words and immediately obeyed the order, burrowing back into the soft soil and advancing into the deepest layers.

"Very good, everything that needs to be prepared here has been arranged. Now we can go home and arrange other things."

Zhang Yun gave a calm reply, then mounted the roe deer, leading two red jackals, and headed straight home.

Zhang Yun was very busy that day, from dawn to dusk.

Around 6 PM, Zhang Yun returned home. Zhang Zhongli, Chen Wan, Zhang Yanhong, and Zhang Yanli, the whole family, were anxiously waiting for him. Upon seeing Zhang Yun return, the four family members immediately pulled him to sit down at the octagonal table.

"Third brother, tomorrow is the day to level the foundation, and you promised to provide three meals a day, but we haven't even prepared any food yet. What are we going to do?"

The father, Zhang Zhongli, stated it directly.

This is why the family was so anxious.

If the villagers go there tomorrow morning and find there is nothing to eat, it means Zhang Yun has broken his promise, and who will trust Zhang Yun in the future?

“Yes, third brother, you’re really making me anxious. Even though you bought a hundred catties of rice, it will only last for two days. We don’t have any vegetables or meat. What are we going to do? No one can work for you on an empty stomach.”

The mother, Chen Wan, was almost in tears.

Zhang Yanhong and Zhang Yanli, the two younger sisters, nodded repeatedly, their faces showing great anxiety.

Zhang Yun could tell from his family’s expressions that the four of them had been anxious all afternoon and were now coming to complain as soon as he returned.

Since that's the case, Zhang Yun certainly couldn't let his family worry any longer.

"Mom and Dad, sister, I've prepared the food. I contacted the villages this afternoon, and all my hunter friends are willing to help me."

"For breakfast, I'll have lean meat porridge with sweet potatoes."

"For lunch and dinner, we eat rice. The meat and vegetable dishes change every day. I prepare fish, rabbit, and bamboo rat meat in advance."

"As for vegetables, I'll trouble Mom and Dad to buy them from each other. Each family has some private plots, and they should be able to sell us the vegetables they grow as long as they pay for them."

Zhang Yun finished speaking in one breath.

Meanwhile, Zhang Yun lamented that the land in the Spirit Spring Space was insufficient, currently only 4 mu (approximately 0.66 acres). He had just begun to breed various wild beasts, and at the same time had to supply the mine canteen, the supply and marketing cooperative, and now also the food for the construction workers. The pressure was quite immense.

After hearing this, the four family members' expressions relaxed considerably.

"Third brother, we have to thank your hunter friends for this. You said you would build the house in 17 days, that's incredibly fast. We can't afford to stop for even a day, and the food supply must keep up."

Zhang Zhongli said calmly.

"My brother is really capable; he's already arranged everything in advance."

Zhang Yanhong looked at Zhang Yun with admiration.

"Great! Our family finally has a new house to live in."

Zhang Yanli became excited.

Seeing his family's happy faces, Zhang Yun naturally wouldn't mention his difficulties and pressures. After all, talking about these things wouldn't help his family; it would only make them worry.

Therefore, Zhang Yun should bear the pressure himself.

The stone will cost over 3000, the cement 1600, and the river sand will probably cost around 600. The workers will build one piece of housing per day, so their wages for these ten days or so will probably be around 700 or 800.

There are also red bricks and roof tiles, which cost a lot of money.

A rough calculation shows that this would cost tens of thousands.

In 1977, a household with 10,000 yuan was equivalent to a multi-millionaire in later generations.

Zhang Yun, however, had to earn that 10,000 yuan within a dozen days.

The pressure is definitely immense.

"Mom and Dad, sister, you don't need to go to work tomorrow. Go to the tea plantation early in the morning. My hunter friend will leave the food there in advance, and you can make breakfast."

"Oh, there's no water at the new house. You'll have to carry well water there for the next few days. It'll be hard work."

Zhang Yun said calmly.

Although pangolins can burrow into the ground, making it easy to drill new wells, the wells still need to be left to stand for a period of time after they are drilled. It is estimated that they can only be used normally after the new house is built.

Therefore, during the construction period, family members still had to carry water over for domestic use.

"This is no problem."

Chen Wan agreed immediately.

At this moment, Zhang Zhongli said, "Third brother, you are building a new house. This is a big event for the family. Find some time to tell your eldest and second eldest sisters. It would be even better if they could come back to help."

Upon hearing this, Zhang Yun's expression froze for a moment.

Because Zhang Zhongli needed surgery, the family incurred a debt. His eldest and second eldest sisters hastily married to support the family, and their dowries were used to pay off the debt.

It can be said that Zhang Yun has always felt indebted to her two older sisters.

“Perfect timing, I also need to go to Hongling Commune to buy bricks. I’ll go pick up my eldest and second eldest sisters in the next couple of days.”

Zhang Yun replied with a smile.

Both of my older sisters married into the neighboring Hongling Commune, which is not far away, only 20 kilometers away.
