When the prince of no descendants found out that he had a baby, he went crazy

Chapter 156 155 Not Even Bronze
Gu Hua instructed Han Jinyan and Zhang Shanhu to kindly ask those who were taking advantage of the situation to leave, and then called all the people who wanted to build houses here and asked them to discuss with Master Mao what kind of house they should build.

Uncle Chen's family has six people, and Gu Chen's family has four people, including his parents and sister. Thanks to Gu Hua's help, both families have enough money to build houses.

Therefore, they planned to build a few main rooms and left and right wing rooms in a slightly higher place at the foot of the mountain, so as to form a small courtyard for living.

Mrs. Shen and her daughter, their two cousins ​​Shen Hongwei and Shen Hongxuan, and the five servants from the general's mansion who came with them, also wanted to build a courtyard house, because such a house is most suitable for ordinary people to live in.

The Sun family and some other people also chose to change to a similar courtyard, but with some adjustments based on the population, the number of houses, and the size of the courtyard.

Apart from these few families, most of the other people who came here to seek refuge had spent all their money during their exile.

Although Gu Hua was unwilling to be a good man, he felt that the people he had spent such a long time with seemed to have good character, so he offered to lend them money to build a house.

Wu Ruonan, who stood in front of her fiancé's family when facing the rebels and was almost insulted and coldly abandoned by those people, was one of those people who had no money.

Wu Ruonan held the twenty taels of silver that Gu Hua gave him in his hand, with a grateful look on his face. He said sincerely, "Thank you. I will pay you back when I make money in the future."

"Okay." Gu Hua nodded with a smile. She also admired this brave, strong, decisive and very capable girl.

Qiao Yuandong, who was standing next to Wu Ruonan and looked like a thin scholar, opened his mouth, but silently closed it under Wu Ruonan's angry glare.

Gu Hua and his family discussed the house-building matter with Master Mao. Seeing the huge workload, it was obvious that Gu Hua and his family wanted to have a house to live in before winter completely arrived.

Mao Changsheng prepared to go back and find some colleagues who were good at building houses and had good character to take on this big job together.

Gu Hua wanted to build a small villa on the hillside at the foot of the mountain. Of course, the construction cost would be much higher than other people's. Before Master Mao left, he asked him to ask Shen Hongxuan and Zuo Xianghan to spend 500 taels of silver to buy materials and other expenses.

Master Mao came back and settled the people he brought with him. He told them to go to the woods to do some preparatory work before building a house. Then he took a few people with him and got on the carriage they came in, returning to the city to contact his colleagues and buy bricks and tiles and other things needed for construction.

Master Mao turned a corner and walked some distance away when he was stopped by Wang Hanyou and his group.

"Don't leave yet, we also want to build a house."

Master Mao stuck his head out of the dilapidated carriage and frowned when he saw a group of rogues lying at the place where Gu Hua and his friends chose to build the house.

Not to mention that he has a lot of work to do now, even if he didn't, he wouldn't want to build houses for such a group of people.

Although he disdained the behavior of this group of people, Master Mao, who had been dealing with people frequently and had long been tactful, still spoke politely: "I'm sorry, I just received a batch of work, and I don't have that many people now. You should go find another group of people to build the house."

When they first arrived, Wang Hanyou and his group did not have a wealthy leader like Gu Hua, so where could they find professional workers to build houses?

Wang Hanyou shouted, "No, you have to build us a house first, otherwise how are we going to survive this winter?"

"Yes, yes, yes. If you don't build us a house, our old arms, legs, and children will freeze to death."

A group of people stood in front of Master Mao's shabby carriage, crying and wailing, as if they would be bad people who were unforgivable if Master Mao did not help them destroy the house.

Master Mao often travels around the country, building houses for people. He has seen all kinds of people. How could he be so easily fooled by someone who pretends to be pitiful and begs him to do something for free? With a gleam in his eyes, he said, "Building houses should be based on a first-come-first-served basis. I have to finish the work I have first before I can take the next job. Don't you think that's right?"

As he spoke, he gave the coachman a look.

Soon, Gu Hua was notified that something happened here. When she brought people over, the group brought by Master Mao was already in a stalemate with Wang Hanyou's group.

Master Mao saw Gu Hua coming over and asked with a somewhat unpleasant look: "Boss Gu, what do you think about this matter..."

Gu Hua nodded to him, indicating that he already knew what had happened.

Then she turned around and looked at Wang Hanyou, the leader, and Gu Jitang, whose face turned gloomy when he saw her coming, "I was the one who found the person. You wanted to intercept him halfway, but did you ask for my permission?!"

"You...don't bully us just because you have a group of strong fighters around you." Wang Hanyou touched the place where he was hit by the stick, subconsciously took a step back, and said in a timid tone.

"Ah! You're not going to let us live anymore." Wang Hanyou's wife suddenly cried out, "If you don't let him build a house for us first, I will hang myself where you sleep at night."

Gu Hua raised his eyebrows: "..." She looked like someone who was brought up in fear.

"If you want to die, no one can stop you." Gu Hua's next words made people feel cold and terrified, "If you have made up your mind, you really want to hang yourself where we sleep."

Wang Hanyou's wife's eyes flashed with fear, but she still said stubbornly: "Well, I just want to die where you sleep. Even if you are not afraid of your children, aren't you afraid of dead people?"

Gu Hua smiled coldly. He threatened her with the child. The woman in front of him must really not want to live anymore.

"All right!"

When the people on the other side heard Gu Hua say okay, they thought she had compromised.

Before they could show any smug expressions, they saw Wang Hanyou's wife being grabbed by the collar by Gu Hua and thrown onto a tree branch, where she hung steadily in an almost identical posture as if she had been hanged.

Gu Hua clapped his hands and sneered, "Since you like being a hanged ghost so much, I will give you one for free."

"Uh...uh uh uh..." Wang Hanyou's wife's throat was choked by the front collar of her clothes. She seemed unable to breathe and her face turned red.

"Mother of this child." Wang Hanyou shouted when he saw his wife being hung on a tree.

"How could you be so vicious as to hang someone on a tree? Hurry up and put her down," Wang Hanyou turned his head in anger, met Gu Hua's half-smile, and took a step back in fear, "Don't come over here..."

When the others saw him roaring so loudly, they originally thought he was a king, but when they saw him being so cowardly, they realized that he was just a pile of rotten copper, and their eyes were filled with contempt.

On the side where no one was paying attention, there were two families with malicious looks on their faces, walking towards where Zuo Xianghan, Wu Ruonan and Qiao Yuandong were standing respectively.
