In this way, Ling Yun, who took the initiative to admit that he knew carpentry skills, naturally became the supervisor of the summer resort.
Regarding this kind of thankless drudgery, he thought about it, but he still couldn't figure out how such a task could be assigned to the Hanlin Academy?
How do you see this, how strange it is.
Only later did he find out that this hard job was originally related to Zhao Yulong, and it was Zhao Yulong who took the lead in taking over the Hanlin Academy.
When he realized this later, he wished he could catch him and beat him up. Of course, this was for the funeral!
Speaking of being a supervisor, Ling Yun wouldn't be too disgusted if it wasn't in June. After all, he is currently idle in the Hanlin Academy, so he might as well find something to do.
Ling Yun is not a pretentious person. Since the matter is a foregone conclusion, there is no use in talking more, so he can only let it take its course.
There are two supervisors at the Summer Resort, and he counts as one.
The name of one of them surprised him, because the other person turned out to be his acquaintance - Zhao Yulong.
He was very surprised when he found out that Zhao Yulong was the supervisor. He couldn't figure out whether this man had something wrong with his brain and wanted to get involved in this muddy water.
Because in his opinion, Zhao Yulong is just a pampered rich boy, and the clothes on his body all show his nobility. Besides, his behavior is noble and elegant. He doesn't know if he can handle this job.
When he found Zhao Yulong and mentioned this matter, the latter spoke with great righteousness and a very open-minded look, which made him wonder if there was something fishy involved, or if there were any benefits that he couldn't think of.
Otherwise, how could Zhao Yulong be so keen on this matter and talk so brazenly about this errand? It only took half a month to pass in the blink of an eye.
This was said lightly, but when Zhao Yulong actually arrived at the summer resort, the situation suddenly changed.
The next day, the two of them rode in a carriage and came to the summer resort.
The summer resort was not that far away, about thirty miles away. They took a carriage and the journey took about half an hour.
As for the work of the supervisor, it is actually just watching from the side. As for the construction of the house, there will naturally be carpenters to do it. Just to avoid problems, people who know carpentry need to be the supervisor.
So Ling Yun only needs to watch from the sidelines, occasionally check one or two, and check the progress. There is nothing else going on, and of course there will be nothing.
But this is just in case. This is a royal project after all, and nothing can be done carelessly. If there is any big problem, it will be a serious matter of beheading.
Zhao Yulong was worthy of being a son of a wealthy family. When he came to supervise the work, he actually brought a group of people with him. Like him, he brought Yang Ergou alone.
It is indeed good to have more people. After just walking around for a while, a few of Zhao Yulong's followers built a small pavilion next to them for them to rest.
The two of them didn't have much to do, and Zhao Yulong didn't know anything, so he was just spending time here.
Generally speaking, when the person in charge of carpentry has a question or needs something, he is the first person to go to him. This is probably because his skin is darker than Zhao Yulong's, and he looks friendly and has no airs.
So it became that if there was a problem, he would leave the small pavilion, while Zhao Yulong sat in the small pavilion drinking tea from morning to night.
Even if he only leaves the small pavilion occasionally and does not spend much time in the sun, Ling Yun's skin can be said to have darkened visibly to the naked eye.
Days with wind and sun were common in my previous life, but in this life, especially since I started studying, they are rare.
Looking at the dark skin, Ling Yun looked up at the sky and smiled bitterly.
After a few days, I can obviously feel the burning pain in my neck, especially when I go back to take a shower at night, it feels like rubbing red pepper.
Zhao Yulong also laughed at Ling Yun at first, saying that he could just stay in the small pavilion when he had nothing to do. If he had something to do, he would tell the people below to do it, so why bother doing it himself and getting tanned?
Ling Yun laughed at his words. Since he has become a supervisor, he should do it seriously, at least there should be no problems under his eyes.
Furthermore, if Emperor Qianxi moved in after the completion of the project and something went wrong, he would not be able to escape his involvement.
Over the past three days, the sun became more and more fierce. Even though Zhao Yulong had been sitting in the small pavilion with a maid behind him to help fan him, in the hot summer, the wind blown out was hot air, which made him complain endlessly.
Zhao Yulong was furious, blabbering and expressing his dissatisfaction to the sky, which made the people next to him have a headache.
Out of good intentions, he decisively suggested, "Yu Long, if you can't stand the sun, why not go back first? Anyway, there won't be any problems here. Besides, if you let me watch, there won't be any accidents."
Ling Yun originally thought that Zhao Yulong would be ecstatic if he took the initiative to ask him to leave, and then flee from this ghost place without stopping. Who knew that his words could not sway him in the slightest.
I saw Zhao Yulong standing up from the recliner irritably, frowning and looking at the steaming sky, kicking the stones under his feet, calmly taking out a Ruyi fan from his waist, and opening the fan very skillfully , and then lightly fanned.
After taking two steps, he sighed softly and said, "Ling Yun, although it is a hot day today, since the two of us are here, there is no reason to give up halfway."
To show his determination, he suddenly walked out of the small pavilion, thinking about the blazing sun, and said loudly, "The sun is nothing, even if a storm comes, I... I will not take a step back."
As soon as he said this, Ling Yun unconsciously took half a step back and looked him up and down. He always felt that Zhao Yulong's behavior was extremely weird, but he couldn't explain it.
In a daze, he vaguely heard Zhao Yulong muttering something, his lips kept moving, as if he was saying, "If we leave so easily, how can we take credit after the completion..."
I didn't hear what he was saying clearly, so I wanted to step forward, but in an instant, the scorching sun in the sky was suddenly covered by a thick layer, and the sky suddenly turned dark.
At this time, even if he didn't have to think about it, he knew what was going to happen next moment, so he impatiently said, "Jade Dragon, let's go quickly, it's going to rain today."
"Ling Yun, I didn't say that to you, didn't I just say that? Even if the storm comes..."
Before he finished speaking, a bolt of lightning rang out, startling Zhao Yulong. He turned around and asked uncertainly, "Ling Yun, was it thunder just now?"
Seeing Zhao Yulong frozen in place, Ling Yun was extremely worried. They were in the summer resort, but they didn't bring a change of clothes. If they got caught in the rain, he would still be the one who would suffer.
So he shouted loudly, "Why are you still standing there? Go inside quickly. There are still a few intact houses inside. If you wait any longer, you will become a drowned rat."
Zhao Yulong, who originally made arrogant remarks about not taking a step back even if a storm came, fled the scene a few minutes faster than Ling Yun after experiencing a flash of lightning.
