Chapter 300: Recognizing the Truth


Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations


Ecological cultivation was something Li Xiaoran had researched when she was writing a thesis in the past.


At that time, Li Xiaoran was impressed by this ecological breeding model and had always wanted to try it.


Now that she had transmigrated to this s.p.a.ce-time dimension and her man happened to have a barren mountain, she wanted to build this ecological farm.


Luo Cheng was inspired by Li Xiaoran’s idea and had a good idea about the construction of the barren mountain.


Originally, Luo Cheng wanted to provide protection for injured soldiers and help improve their lives.


However, when it was really implemented, Luo Cheng realized that he was too rash.


At this moment, under Li Xiaoran’s reminder, Luo Cheng suddenly understood something.


If he was going to invest his energy and money anyway, why couldn’t he put more effort into making it even better?


In the past, these people might have worked for other people, but he could hire them to work for him as well.


At least he wouldn’t bully them. He would arrange things according to their individual situations.


He originally wanted to build a village for them and let them live independently.


But now that he thought about it, the idea was too naive.


If he wanted to guide this group of people and let them integrate into normal life, he might as well set up his own rules from the beginning.


Then, they would only need to do what he told them to!


He could just get rid of those who had ulterior motives.


The more he thought about it, the more Luo Cheng felt that this was a good idea, so he began to think about how to implement it.


“Wife, don’t you think it’s better for us to build some houses on the barren mountain and pay those disabled soldiers a monthly salary?” Luo Cheng asked.


Li Xiaoran thought for a moment and nodded.


“Actually, this is for the best. It’s just that the investment will be very high, at least in the early stages. The house needs to be built, the fish pond needs to be dug, while chickens, ducks, and pigs all require money to raise!”


“I’m not afraid of spending money. I can afford this small amount of money!” Luo Cheng nodded and said.


“If that’s the case, then there’s no problem! However, since it’s a manor, we still have to find some guards and a butler for the manor!” Li Xiaoran reminded again.


“Yes!” Luo Cheng nodded and said, “Then I’ll go and take a look at the construction of our father and mother’s house first! I’ll see if the workers spare the time to continue building a manor for us!”


With that, Luo Cheng stood up and left.


Li Xiaoran thought of something and suddenly realized that in the past few months, they seemed to have been constructing nonstop!


First, they built the shop. Then, they started building their parents’ house. Now, they were going to build a house in the wilderness.


Why did this have to do with repairing houses?!


Perhaps she, who in the modern era had an obsession with having a house that belonged to her, would finally fulfill her wish after transmigrating to ancient times.


When Chen Xiang, who was in charge of building the Luo family’s house, saw Luo Cheng coming, he subconsciously felt that business had come.


When he heard Luo Cheng say that he wanted him to build a manor in the wilderness, Chen Xiang was shocked.


“My people are all focused on the construction of the house. How can I have any manpower to spare?!”


Luo Cheng was disappointed to hear that.


“Are these the only people you have?”


“That’s right! I only have these people with me!” Chen Xiang nodded and said, “To be honest, before this, I didn’t even have these people to work for me! If it weren’t for the fact that you asked us to build a shop last year, I would have lost my team!”


Luo Cheng was curious when he heard Chen Xiang’s words.


“The house you guys built isn’t bad, and it was built very quickly. Why can’t you guys continue?”


Chen Xiang smiled bitterly and said, “There are many people in our line of work. I don’t do things like those sly people. I’ll tell people how much silver it takes to build a house. I won’t report too much or too little. We also guarantee the quality of the house and won’t cut corners. Compared to others, naturally we aren’t liked by the owners.”


When Luo Cheng heard this, he immediately understood something.


There were many twists and turns in this industry.


At this point, Chen Xiang thought of something and suddenly asked, “Actually, it’s not impossible for me to take this job! But Young Master Luo, as long as you can pay me half of the money in advance, I can find people to build your manor!”


Luo Cheng didn’t understand Chen Xiang’s words.


“It’s like this. I have a former colleague who can’t survive in the industry anymore. That person is very down-to-earth, but doesn’t plan to do construction anymore. However, the people under him are very skilled. I want to get these people over to build your house!” Chen Xiang explained.


Luo Cheng thought for a moment and asked, “Do you know Han Zhenming?


When Chen Xiang heard this name, his expression immediately changed.


“How could we not know?! We were oppressed by the Han family until we couldn’t survive in the industry anymore! ”


Luo Cheng didn’t expect to hear someone else say Uncle Han’s name again.


“What do you mean? Tell me in detail!”


At this moment, Chen Xiang couldn’t suppress the hatred in his heart and told him everything.


The Han family had always wanted to expand in Sichuan, so they annexed many craftsmen who built houses.


At first, the Han family promised the craftsmen lucrative rewards. After everyone signed the contract, the Han family began to show their true colors.


“Young Master Luo, do you know? People in this industry rely on our strength and skills to earn a living. Our pay isn’t bad. In the end, after the Han family signed these craftsmen, they lowered the cost of each job. Even the wages of the craftsmen fell by more than half!”


“No one was willing to accept it, so they went to the Han family to ask for an explanation. The Han family took out those contracts and threatened them with a sky-high breach of contract penalty fee if they didn’t accept it. Who could take out so much money? They could only take it lying down and were forced to work for the Han family!”


“Fortunately, not everyone has signed this contract. More than half of the craftsmen are freelancers. It’s just that everyone has formed their own teams and can’t compete with the Han family. The Han family used dirty tricks to ostracize us bit by bit. They even threatened our craftsmen with being forced to leave their homes!”


Upon hearing Chen Xiang’s words, Luo Cheng was shocked.


It turned out that the Han Zhenming he knew wasn’t the real Han Zhenming, but a very hypocritical Han Zhenming!
