Leisurely mountain village

Moreover, with the money in his hands and his grandfather's influence, he could get the town to agree to road repairs even if he went there. He didn't care about paying for it himself, but if anyone dared to touch his money, they shouldn't blame him for being ruthless. Although his money came from thin air, he still had to bend down and pick it up.

He doesn't care about small favors. Don't be like the rumors online, that he's greedy and ruthless. He doesn't really care. Who knows how much he's worth now? He himself doesn't even know. He has so many treasures.

He asked Gao Xiaoqiang to treat his classmate Xu Daguo, who was a police officer, to a meal, and he even gave him such a generous gift. It's not that he doesn't understand social etiquette, but he has his bottom line.

He's not powerful enough to make the rules. People shouldn't always make things difficult for themselves; it's better to be happy.

In his current view, things that can be solved with money are basically not a big deal. He plans to go out in a few days, either to Kyoto or Shanghai, to see if there are any opportunities to sell a couple of antiques and test the waters.

Of course, as for those bronze artifacts and such, let's just leave them in the space; those things are prone to causing trouble.

His idea was to find some similar-looking counterfeit goods at street stalls, store them in his spatial storage, take out similar genuine goods, pretend not to know them, let the appraiser discover them, and then naturally "find a bargain".

Of course, one cannot do such things too often, as it is easy to cause trouble. Therefore, he prepares a maximum of three items, or even just one, mainly based on their value.

If the value is high, stop immediately; if the value is low, buy two more items.

The key is that he has many excuses. As long as he tells his grandfather, he can sell a few "family heirlooms" under his great-grandfather's name. Isn't that normal?

"My great-grandfather was a renowned figure in the martial arts world, and his family has a long tradition of martial arts. It's normal and reasonable for him to have some good stuff, right?" Ye Huan asked casually, lost in thought.

"Are there any good teams in the town or county that can do this job?"

"Boss, we're all set. As long as you get approval from above, once we've bought the gravel, I can drive a road roller over and start work," the boss said excitedly. He'd been living off Willow Village for the past six months.

After this project is completed, there's still one building left. And according to the boss, there are two more houses that need renovation. If he can also take over this road, he won't have to worry about finding a team.

Moreover, he was able to run a construction team in the town because he had connections there, so he wasn't afraid of other people in the town causing trouble. He was already very familiar with Ye Huan, so he spoke directly to Ye Huan.

"My brother-in-law is Mayor Lu. Don't worry, as long as you get approval from the town government, I guarantee I'll do a great job for you."

Ye Huan nodded. Since he could trust this boss, he was unwilling to replace him. Since they started working together, he could see that although this person had some minor flaws, he was really meticulous in his work, which was why he was willing to entrust him with building the house.

"Okay, it would be best if you could do it, but you still need to get the house built first," Ye Huan said with a smile.

"Don't worry, boss, you can rest assured, it'll be fine." The boss rubbed his hands together and grinned. He was always very disciplined when it came to work. In the countryside, in the towns, if you lose your reputation, you lose everything.

Such things have happened in their town before. The nephew of the former Party Secretary, relying on his uncle's promotion to become the executive director of the neighboring county, bullied people and drove an honest family to the brink of despair. They forcibly demolished his house, beat him half to death, and forced him to put his bloody fingerprint on the agreement. The old lady who depended on him for survival died that very night.

Then, during the Spring Festival, this usually honest and unassuming man, who was never one to utter a sound, rushed into his house with a rusty wood-chopping knife and sent all seven members of his family away.

No matter how powerful you are, can you execute someone twice? His own wife and son were having New Year's Eve dinner at her parents' house that day, and they were all sent away. The executive director, however, was on duty that night and escaped.

This incident caused quite a stir last year. The old farmer hid in the mountains for half a month, but was spotted by someone from his village and sold for 50,000 yuan. When the old farmer was arrested, he looked at the look in his villager's eyes and urinated on him. He had nightmares for several days afterward and is now said to have developed mental problems, screaming in his sleep every night.

Everyone canceled their annual leave, and special police, along with a local military unit, were mobilized.

The boss shook his head, shaking these things out loud. People, don't be too arrogant.

Ye Huan nodded, and seeing that the house was progressing well, she went back.

After dinner, I received a call from Ye Yingying. The two best friends had arranged a time: September 9th. They would fly to the provincial capital and have Ye Huan take them hiking. They had already bought all the gear.

Ye Huan said OK, and would be waiting for your arrival in about ten days.

Jingjing fell asleep during dinner. After a long day of playing, Bai Jie carried her to bed. After Ye Huan finished eating, she took her grandfather back home and then took Xiao Bai and the two little ones up the mountain.

He estimated that he would level up to level 13 today, but he knew that he was still in the early stages. He had figured out a few tricks of the trade.

He was at level ten before, with each level three being a minor realm. Level ten should be a perfect realm, similar to what's described in novels. And sure enough, he broke through to level eleven, and even faced six rounds of lightning tribulations.

If he considers his level 10 as the Qi Refining stage in novels, then his current level 12 is the early stage of Foundation Establishment, right? Then his previous restless state would be easier to explain.

Ye Huan didn't care whether it was right or wrong, and directly compared himself to the cultivation levels in online novels. He felt that he was currently at the early stage of Foundation Establishment. He would level up 13 levels tonight, still at the early stage, but next time, he would be at the middle stage.

Compared to what his grandfather said about ancient martial arts, he felt that it should be at least a Grandmaster, or even higher, since a Grandmaster is a powerful person who can take a life from a hundred meters away.

However, Ye Huan knew his own limitations. He was only a mediocre practitioner, having learned everything through trial and error. Apart from a small fireball, he knew nothing else in terms of magic. As for other skills such as teleportation, acupoint striking, beast taming, and medicine making, those could be considered ancient martial arts skills.

So after this upgrade, he plans to focus his energy on sword flight, even if he doesn't know if it's true or not. Even if he can't fly on a sword, he should at least learn how to kill people with a sword.

He had several small throwing knives that he had customized, and he was determined to try them out tonight. It's frustrating to have the skill level but no actual technique.

So when he arrived at the cabin today, he didn't drink any more. He left Xiaobai inside to watch over things while he took Zidian and the two little ones, Wangcai and Xiaotian, into the space to let them grow.

Ye Huan drank a cup of spiritual spring water and immediately began cultivating.

When he woke up and left the space, it was already bright outside. He checked his phone and it was past 4:30 in the morning.
