An old lady hurried over to support her, muttering, "Old lady, don't get angry with Lin Shaowen, it's not worth it..."

"Lin Shaowen, is this Huanghuali? How much is it worth?" the third aunt exclaimed.

"It's not worth much. It was given to me by a friend."

Lin Shaowen took out cigarettes with a smile and distributed them to the workers who were unloading goods. He also gave one to Liu Guangfu who was watching the fun.

"Not a single word of this is true." The third aunt muttered.

"Brother, what are you going to do with this pavilion?" Lei Dali came over and asked.

"Are you interested, brother?" Lin Shaowen looked at him.

"I haven't been busy lately." Lei Dali's old face turned red.

It is still a difficult time now, and many people can't even get enough food to eat. Who has the time to do these things?

"I plan to separate this place and build a small pavilion. Can you help me calculate how much it will cost if I add the tiles and other things?" Lin Shaowen pointed to an empty space in the corner and added, "I also plan to build a grape trellis here..."

"Three days, twenty dollars." Lei Dali quoted the price.

"No problem, when can we start work?"

Lin Shaowen agreed readily, but the residents of the courtyard felt a toothache.

Half a month's salary is gone just like that? What a spendthrift.

But when I thought about Lin Shaowen's salary, I became even angrier.

Lei Dali looked at the sky. It was only afternoon. He immediately said, "I will go back right away to bring people and tools."

After saying that, he ran outside.

Lin Shaowen was casually counting the wood, but suddenly found that there were an extra piece of red sandalwood and rosewood.

Needless to say, this must have been sent by Chen Fashu.

"Hey."

Lin Shaowen sighed slightly, rolled up his sleeves and prepared to work.

"Brother Lin, is there anything I can help you with?" Liu Guangfu came over and said.

"What can you do?" Lin Shaowen asked with a smile.

"This……"

Liu Guangfu was speechless immediately.

He seems to know nothing.

"Second Aunt..."

Lin Shaowen shouted.

"Hey, I'm here." The second aunt came over hurriedly.

"You just heard it. I have to work here... Can you help me cook a meal?"

Lin Shaowen took out five dollars and shook them in his hands.

"I'll do it right away."

The second aunt grabbed the money and ran straight to the kitchen.

"Mom, whoever sees it gets it."

Liu Guangfu also chased after him.

"Uncle, we can do it too."

The three aunts suddenly became anxious.

Where can you find such a good thing as a meal for five dollars?

"No, Third Aunt, I think what Second Aunt said makes sense. It's not appropriate for me to keep looking for you."

Lin Shaowen smiled bitterly and shook his head, then picked up the saw and started sawing wood.

"Damn whore, you're trying to steal my business?"

The third aunt walked away with a gloomy face.

Yu Li was also very unhappy. After looking in the direction of the kitchen, she left.

The others watched Lin Shaowen planing wood with great interest.

When Lei Dali arrived, an exquisite birdcage had already been made.

"Brother, you use rosewood to make a birdcage?" Lei Dali said with great sorrow.

"What else can we do?" Lin Shaowen asked, tilting his head.

"you……"

Lei Dali was choked immediately.

half an hour.

When he saw Lin Shaowen pick up the red rosewood again, he was shocked and asked, "Brother, you don't want to use this as a doghouse, do you?"

"It's neither big nor small, and it wouldn't be appropriate to do anything else with it." Lin Shaowen said innocently.

"Well."

Lei Dali retreated and began to arrange people to dismantle the shed.

"Old Eight, go in."

Lin Shaowen shouted.

The starling that was originally standing on the everlasting flower immediately flapped its wings and crawled into the cage, and then closed the cage with its feet.

This stunned the onlookers.

"Lin Shaowen, how much did you pay for this bird? It's too smart, isn't it?"

"That's right. This is the first time in my life that I've seen a bird that can close its cage door by itself."

“It can also understand human language.”

"..."

Everyone was talking in a hurry.

Even Lei Dali and others came over and looked curiously at the starling jumping in the cage.

The starling is black all over, slightly smaller than a pigeon, shiny and glossy, and looks very pleasing.

When it saw so many people surrounding it and watching it, it immediately started shouting.

"One hundred, one hundred..."

"Hiss, one hundred?"

Everyone was shocked.

"Brother, this mynah bird... you spent a hundred dollars? Did you get cheated?" Lei Dali asked anxiously, "Even if it can talk, it's not worth a hundred dollars, at most ten dollars."

There are a lot of talking starlings in the flower and bird market, and they usually cost a few dollars.

This thing is a little smarter than the average starling and won’t cost more than ten bucks.

Chapter 241 You Trampled My Dignity

"Listen to its nonsense, how can it be one hundred?"

Lin Shaowen rolled his eyes and glared at Bage, "Old Bage, if you keep talking nonsense, I will kill you today."

"Kill me, kill me."

The starling shouted happily, with a hint of sarcasm in its voice.

"Hahaha."

There was a burst of laughter throughout the yard.

Lin Shaowen was too lazy to pay attention to it and concentrated on building the doghouse.

The others started talking to the starling, but the bird was not willing to pay attention to them. Annoyed, it opened the cage itself and flew away.

"Lin Shaowen, your starling flew away." someone shouted.

"It will come back." Lin Shaowen said indifferently.

"If you run away, you'll cry." Jia Zhang snorted coldly.

Lin Shaowen was too lazy to pay attention to her and just focused on making the dog cage.

Everyone looked at the sky for a while and saw that it was almost time for dinner, so they all went home to cook.

Not a moment.

The dog cage was also ready. Lin Shaowen placed it outside the bedroom door and whistled.

A fat yellow dog came running out and rubbed Lin Shaowen's calf affectionately.

"Ah Huang, this is your home." Lin Shaowen pointed at the doghouse.

"Wang Wang Wang..."

The big yellow dog barked happily a few times and immediately went in.

The doghouse was large, half a person's height, and very spacious. Lin Shaowen crawled in and tried it out. He could sit up straight but couldn't lie down. Although the doghouse was placed at the door of the bedroom, one part of it was against the wall and would not block the way.

Not a moment.

Qin Huairu and Qin Jingru came back, followed by the angry Sha Zhu and Liu Haizhong, as well as a group of courtyard residents who were watching the fun.

"Lin Shaowen, who are you looking down on?" Sha Zhu asked angrily.

"Silly Zhu, stop making trouble. I haven't annoyed you recently." Lin Shaowen rolled his eyes.

"You ask Second Aunt to cook? What's her skill level? Can she cook?" Sha Zhu yelled.

"No, Shazhu, what do you mean?" Liu Guangfu rushed out and retorted, "You think you are the only one in the yard who can cook? Without you, everyone will starve to death?"

"Get out of here. This is none of your business." Sha Zhu stared at Lin Shaowen and said, "Lin Shaowen, if you don't give me an explanation today, I... I won't leave."

Having said that, he lay on the ground and refused to get up.

"No, Shazhu, what are you doing?" Lin Shaowen said with a headache.

"You trampled on my dignity." Sha Zhu looked up and said.

"This……"

Lin Shaowen was speechless.

In fact, he didn't understand since he came to the yard.

Sha Zhu regarded him as his lifelong enemy.

Before he came, Sha Zhu was not the king of the yard, but he was also an absolute core figure. With a salary of 37.5 yuan, he was the best among all the young people in the yard. No one was better than him.

But since Lin Shaowen came, he has become the king of topics. No matter whether he is in the yard or not, people will always talk about Lin Shaowen when they chat.

She is good-looking, well-educated, and more importantly, her salary is ridiculously high.

For such a person, Sha Zhu would toss and turn late at night and then sigh sadly.

Since Yuzhu was born, why was Shaowen born?

But fortunately, at least when Lin Shaowen asked him for help, he would politely call him "Master He" and then ask him to help. At that time, he was happier than eating a popsicle in June.

But now he actually gave the job to Second Aunt. Who is Second Aunt? An old woman who is idle at home. Can she cook? She can't.

"Oh, oh, oh, I'm wrong." Lin Shaowen hurriedly took out a cigarette and said, "Master He, come and have a smoke. I thought you were busy this time, so I asked Second Aunt to help... In terms of cooking skills, let alone in the yard, you are in the top three in the whole city. I said, no one can help you."

"You have good taste." Sha Zhu stood up and looked down at the second aunt, then looked at Lin Shaowen and said with a little reserve, "I heard that this job of yours will take three days?"

"Yes, yes, three days." Lin Shaowen said hurriedly, "I invited Master Lei with great difficulty. He is a craftsman like you, so we can't neglect him."

"Brother Lin."

Lei Dali shouted with emotion, and the disciple behind him had tears in his eyes.
