Heshibi Haogui: “#laughtillonecries, a land deed and house deed worth only three coins. The cost of this residence is heavenly.”

Yaoyibai Ruanmeini: “The heaven in my imagination, even in my wildest dreams isn’t so bold.”

Biesuibian Tiaoxi: “Oh Sanwen, loved ones, when it reached us, it’s less than even three dollars! Which of you has calculated the area of the two sectioned residence? Even if the streamer is so intimidating and I’d have to work overtime till I cry, I also want to travel back in time to serve her.”

Zuozeta Buxiang Jiageng: “Pei, what logic is this? The second sectioned residences are more than 400 square meters, this is a small apartment. What is my two-story villa, a toilet? But this price for a house is crazy. Streamer, can I travel back in time to be your slave? Just give me three coins and a second section residence. Let alone work overtime for one month, I’d do it for a year, whoever frowns is a dog!”

Qianzai Taiduo: “Let alone one year, I’ll be willing to do it even for ten years. After working hard for one year, I can’t even afford one tenth of a toilet.”

Buxiangjiageng Zhixiangsi: “Am I the only one who noticed the streamer earning a profit of two coins?”

A land and house deed purchased for one coin, then sold for three coins. She earned two folds profit.

Truthfully, Jiang Pengji was a competent streamer. Even though her temper is bad she’s hardworking.

From the morning when getting out of bed to switching on the livestream till night when she sleeps, rain or shine, she is unstoppable.

Notably after the earthquake at Shangjing previously, Jiang Pengji was exhausted to the point of losing consciousness. Her livestream hours increased to more than 15 hours and hit a peak of 24 hours. When Feng Jin and all worked overtime, she didn’t slack off.

The others have good skin conditions even after burning the midnight oil for 4 to 5 hours. Unexpectedly, the dark circles never appeared on their eyes neither did their eye bags swell. The viewers were rather jealous at first, then realised her underlings didn’t believe she worked that hard. They laughed hilariously.

Only during such times, these unethical viewers will briefly give Jiang Pengji some points of pity.

One month has passed, Xiangyang district’s rebuilding is going according to plan.

From the center of the district it began to spread outward and the first batch of exquisite apartments are almost ready.

A group of people departed; Meng Hun took big strides, practically running towards Feng Jin.

“Master Feng, can you please exchange with me?” he asked bashfully.

Feng Jin was startled momentarily, if he didn’t remember wrongly, Meng Hun was allocated the three sectioned residence while he got the two sectioned ones. The area of both houses differed greatly, using a three sectioned house to exchange for a two sectioned one, isn’t he at a disadvantage?

He explained, “Anyway I am living alone, living in such a big house is not convenient for me.”

Though Meng Hun is a warrior, he has a meticulous mind. He did not realize just now but upon reflection he discovered he screwed up.

The house and land deed that Jiang Pengji gave each other is in consideration of their families. Those married will be given three sectioned houses while single ones are given two sectioned. He reacted too quickly and seemed to have taken what belongs to Feng Jin.

Of course, he should exchange it back now, to prevent any unhappiness and gossip from spreading.

Meng Hun scratched his head saying, “The location of master’s apartment is still undergoing road works by the side. It’d be noisy and may be a disturbance for my sister-in-law and my little niece. I am an elder, so it is inconsequential, such construction noise is not even at the decibel of my snoring.”

Feng Jin just laughed and exchanged the land and house deeds with him, and all was well.

——-

Within a month, the Xiangyang district transformed from a desolate place to a bustling district.

Walking out from the district headquarters, the surface beneath was unusually smooth such that even the most reckless horse carriage that passed by will not feel any vibrations. This is something even Shangjing in the past couldn’t achieve.

Precisely because the bricks that the road is laid with is burnt in the brick kiln producing pale green bricks. The scale of the bricks is different from those used to build houses. They are made thicker and broader... Naturally, this is extravagant to Feng Jin, though green bricks by themselves are not worth much they are valuable because of their rarity.

He followed the address on the deed, at the same time he caught a glimpse of a future residence.

Outside the courtyard, he briefly lifted his head and saw the entire pale green roof tiles.

Entering the courtyard, in the middle there lied a road lined with gravel rocks, leading to the hall.

The doors and windows of the hall and two rooms beside have not been decorated, it looks empty, the corridor by the side has decorative flowers and wooden windows that are opened slightly. Besides the patterns on the wood itself, there are no man-made designs or crafting on the wood. Overall, it is clean and refreshing.

Going forward, he entered the inner courtyard. With only one glance, he can see the setup of the residences are the most popular of his time.

The entire infrastructure isn’t large but there’s enough natural light. Within it, there’s a small courtyard. It is completely empty now, but if a false mountain is placed there, a pond is dug here, and some animals are placed there...then the scorching hot summer can be spent fishing by the side of the pond. There is a lot of potential to turn this into a truly satisfying environment.

Feng Jin walked around, calculating intricately in his mind how to improve it.

At this point, Changsheng is almost three months old. When she gets bigger, the area she needs to move about cannot be limited to one location.

This child seems to receive the blessings and protection from the heavens.

Feng Jin recently had a migraine for two days. He only got well after taking medications.

He entered the hall again, lifted his head and realized something that caught his attention.

During the earthquake at Shangjing, if Jiang Pengji hadn’t put herself in danger to save Wei Jingxian and their daughter, Feng Jin would have been a widower by now.

Every time he recalled this incident, he grew terrified. Moreover, he developed a fear for houses.

Now that he looked up, he discovered that this house is very interesting. It differed from the residences he has seen.

Well, of course it’s different.

Even though the construction worker in this era used mortise and tenon, it was still in its initial stages and not as sturdy, their techniques are also lacking.

While Jiang Pengji was busy planning for the house, she did extensive research with the livestream viewers, with their help and Jiang Pengji’s own hard work, she introduced mature mortise and tenon to be used in this brand-new building project. It’s ability to withstand earthquakes is surely hundreds of folds stronger than those flimsy ones.

Feng Jin left in an overjoyed mood when leaving the residence. Once he got out, he saw Xu Ke and Qiguan Rang who were nearby.

The three of them bumped into each other, taking another look, three of their residences lies on the same street.

Qiguan Rang still wore a fatigued face, “Does Huaiyu want to borrow some craftsmen from our lord to prepare the inner courtyard?”

After Feng Jin and Xu Ke worked overtime crazily, their work was on track. They can finally slow down on their workload, Feng Jin will occasionally visit his wife and child. Except for Qiguan Rang... he wants so badly to roll his mattress and live where he works.

The registering of households is already so mundane, yet the register records procedure has too many unreasonable and messy areas. Jiang Pengji approves of him streamlining the procedure for registration of household. Though Qiguan Rang was moved, but by doing so, it unequivocally betrays his all-time principle to stay a low profile.

Feng Jin remarked, “This is nothing, please don’t bother yourself with such matters, my lord. Jin has house servants, they can pack the house.”

Regardless, Feng Jin is still the Langjun of the Feng’s, he has substantial resources.

After viewing the house, Feng Jin headed to the house they temporarily settled in. Wei Jingxian who recovered from her childbirth, carried her child and pacified her, she hummed an elegant and soothing tune, Changsheng still has her chubby and fair looks. She grew to be increasingly cute.

Her two hands wanting to hold on to Wei Jingxian’s hair which she let down, focused on mumbling to herself.
