But Niu Bayi didn't actually have that much courage; he just gently pinched He Zhenzhen's little face.

"Mmm, hurry up and go to sleep! Otherwise, you'll make my future wife lose weight."

He Zhenzhen gave him a sweet smile: "You sleep too. When you get up at noon, come to my house for lunch, remember that."

These past few days, the He family's house has become Niu Bayi's dining hall.

I usually eat lunch and dinner there.

He Zhenzhen brought him breakfast.

Niu Bayi thought for a moment.

"I might not be able to go at noon today. I have to go to the construction site to see how the workers are doing. I promised them I'd provide them with a meal every day at noon."

He Zhenzhen said, "No problem, my mom can just make it and send it over."

Niu Bayi shook his head.

"It's food for ten people, and your mother is so busy with so many chores every day. Don't trouble her!"

"I plan to get two big pots, buy some rice, meat and vegetables, and cook right there. The chefs can cook for themselves, and I can cook for them occasionally."

"By the way, I'm planning to take a nap and then go hunting pheasants in the woods. I think hunting pheasants is pretty easy, hehe! I won't have to waste money going outside to buy meat. I'll just be nature's porter."

Upon hearing this, He Zhenzhen swallowed hard.

"Hey Bayi, those two pheasants you hunted last time were really delicious. How about I come over to the construction site and mooch a meal there?"

Niu Bayi certainly didn't object.

"Sure, you can come over once you've finished sleeping. Tell your mom I won't be coming over for lunch today. When you come, you might have to help with cooking."

He Zhenzhen nodded repeatedly.

"I'm good at starting fires and cooking; my mom taught me everything, so don't worry."

She raised her little hand and patted Niu Bayi's chest.

"I'm going to cook for you for the rest of my life. I'm all set."

Such pleasing words finally made Niu Bayi unable to resist pulling her into his arms.

He gave her a big kiss on her cherry-like lips.

"My god, Niu Bayi, you bastard!"

He Zhenzhen quickly pushed him away, jumped off the boat, and ran home.

Fortunately, there are hardly any people left at the dock now.

After her father and brother finished selling the fish, they kept yawning, ignored everyone, and went home to sleep.

Other fishermen are in similar situations.

Boss Wu also had someone load all the goods into a small truck and drove off.

Watching that graceful figure sway back, Niu Bayi's lips curled into a smile, feeling that the world he had been reborn into was truly wonderful.

After washing up, he went back to his cabin and took a nap.

Since drinking the coconut water from the space, others might need eight hours of sleep to fully recover their energy.

Niu Bayi doesn't need to sleep that much; two or three hours is enough.

So, he got up around 10 a.m.

Stepping out of the cabin, I looked at the enormous giant clam shell displayed at the bow of the ship, walked over, and picked it up with both hands in one go.

This giant clam shell weighs over 100 kilograms; most people wouldn't be able to lift it just like that.

But Niu Bayi held him quite easily and comfortably.

I carefully hopped onto the dock, then changed my posture and hoisted it onto my shoulder.

She swayed and twisted as she walked toward the beach.

Everyone they met along the way was stunned to see Niu Bayi carrying such a huge giant clam shell.

"Bayi, what are you doing carrying that giant clam shell? Where are you going? It's useless. When we go out to sea and catch giant clams, we just take the meat and throw the shells back into the sea!"

"Wow, Bayi is incredibly strong! This giant clam shell must weigh over a hundred pounds, and you're carrying it without even breaking a sweat. When did the sickly Bayi of the past become as strong as Li Kui or Zhang Fei?"

"Ba Yi, you're so strong! I wonder if your future wife, He Zhenzhen, can handle it!"

"Speaking of which, Bayi, my sister weighs 150 pounds, with big breasts and a big butt. She can definitely handle you. How about we find another wife?"

……

Niu Bayi ignored them, carried the giant clam shell, and ran all the way to the construction site.

He tossed the giant clam shell aside, clapped his hands, and saw ten craftsmen working enthusiastically.

Some used iron shovels.

Some used hoes.

Some used iron picks and large iron hammers to smash all the protruding parts and then shovel them to one side, or they filled the depressions and tried their best to flatten the whole mound.

When they saw Niu Bayi carrying such a large giant clam shell over, the group of masters stopped what they were doing and asked him why he was carrying the giant clam shell over.

Niu Bayi said with a smile, "Masters, in the next few days, I may bring in a large number of giant clam shells. First, you should fill in the hilltop properly, and then break all these giant clam shells."

"I'm going to use it to lay the foundation! To build a house!"

The group of masters were all knowledgeable, and they all gave Niu Bayi a thumbs up.

One craftsman said, "These giant clam shell fragments can not only replace bricks and stones, saving a lot of material costs, but they are also much better than bricks and stones for building houses by the sea. They are corrosion-resistant, sea wind-resistant, and dry beautifully!"

Niu Bayi scratched the back of his head and said, "So, all you masters know how to deal with this giant clam shell, right?"

The group of masters laughed and nodded, saying that of course they understood.

Such a large giant clam shell cannot be easily broken into pieces.

You need to wash it clean, expose it to the sun for a while, and let it dry completely before it becomes brittle and easier to break.

Then they would swing a sledgehammer to smash it into large pieces, and then use a small hammer to break it into fist or palm-sized pieces.

Then it can be used to mix mortar, fill foundations, and build walls.

Hearing his masters say this, Niu Bayi knew they were knowledgeable people and immediately nodded in approval.

Then he added, "Anyway, you guys should finish leveling the slope first, and then help me break these giant clam shells. If you know how to lay the foundation, then you can continue to help."

"Anyway, I won't treat you unfairly."

The group of masters all nodded and laughed.

"Bayi will definitely not treat us unfairly. They've never paid us before without us doing any work. Bayi is a very loyal and righteous people."

One of the masters said this.

The other craftsmen nodded in agreement.

Niu Bayi chuckled.

"Okay, everyone keep working. I'll go find Secretary Aiguo and ask where we can get a big pot, and buy some rice. Then I'll go into the woods and hunt some pheasants and rabbits."

"For lunch today, let's either have braised chicken or braised rabbit."

"It's braised until fragrant and delicious, absolutely perfect with rice!"

Upon hearing this, the workers became even more motivated.

One of the foreman shouted, "Bayi, I heard you caught two pheasants in the woods late at night the other day. You're not only good at fishing at sea, but you're also quite skilled at hunting in the mountains!"

"We're just waiting to eat your chicken and rabbit!"

Niu Bayi loudly agreed and turned to go find Niu Aiguo to ask for a big pot and other things.

These are leftovers from when we used to eat communal meals; there were quite a few bites left.

It hasn't been used for many years and is covered in rust.

Niu Aiguo patted his chest and said he would take care of it.

He would find someone to wash the large pot thoroughly before delivering it to the construction site.

As for rice and such, he would ask someone to buy two bags first. One hundred catties is enough for ten workers to eat for three days, and there would be some left over!
