After entering the market, I walked around for five or six minutes.
Luo Yanning stopped at the door of a shop called "Lidong Decoration Materials Wholesale".
It's still early now, the store has just opened, and the business in the store is not busy.
A woman in her 30s, wearing a floral dress and wavy perm, was doing calculations with a calculator on the table by the door.
In the store, a young man wearing a blue and black long-sleeved work clothes was holding a small book and taking stock of the goods next to the shelves.
"Sister-in-law, you're fine." Luo Yanning smiled and stepped forward to say hello to the woman at the door.
When the woman raised her eyes and saw Luo Yanning standing in front of her, her eyes showed surprise, and she quickly greeted the young man inside: "Oh, Wei Dong, look who's here!"
"Yanning! Why didn't you call in advance when you came over?" Wang Weidong turned around and saw Luo Yanning, and walked a few steps quickly to welcome him out the door.
The two were classmates in junior high school and high school for six years. Wang Weidong did not go to college after graduating from high school and came to work in the building materials market.
Wang Yanli was originally his boss's wife. After his boss died in a car accident, the two of them got in love over time and finally got married.
Although there is an age difference of seven or eight years between the two, they live quite harmoniously, and the couple is extremely loving.
When old classmates meet, it is inevitable to exchange pleasantries, talk about life, work, and current situation.
Wang Yanli glanced at Luo Yanning a few times, and asked with a smile: "Yanning, do you have a girlfriend now? When are you planning to get married? Wei Dong and I are waiting for your wedding wine."
"There are a lot of things to do in the scenic spot. I am so busy every day that I have no time to talk about my girlfriend. I am not in a hurry about getting married. I'd better wait, at least until my career is more stable." Faced with the concern of a good friend,
Luo Yanning could only respond by saying something to excuse her parents and grandparents from urging her to get married.
Wang Yanli smiled and said: "You don't have a girlfriend? How about my sister-in-law introduce you to one? The girl is a yoga instructor. She has an amazing figure. Moreover, she is also very beautiful, and she is a perfect match for you. If you don't want to get married now,
, we can be friends for a few years, don’t you think?”
"Well, thank you, sister-in-law, but I've been really busy recently." Wang Yanli also expressed her kindness. Luo Yanning couldn't blame her, so she could only smile awkwardly and refuse again.
Wang Yanli was very insistent this time: "No matter how busy you are, you can still find time for a meal. Find a time and ask the girl to have a meal together in the evening. Let's meet and get to know each other..."
"Okay, okay, with Yan Ning's conditions, you can't get the girlfriend you want to talk to, so you should worry less." Wang Weidong saw the embarrassment on Luo Yan Ning's face and hurriedly spoke out to help him out.
Jingle bells ~ jingle bells ~
Luo Yanning was saved by the phone ringing at the right time.
The cell phone in Wang Yanli's hand rang. She made an apologetic gesture to Luo Yanning and went to the side to answer the phone.
Wang Weidong raised his eyebrows at Luo Yanning and asked with a smile: "The girl my wife is talking about is her yoga instructor. I have met her twice. She is a beautiful, slim and elegant woman. Is it true that she is missing?"
"I don't see you, I really don't have any thoughts about this now." Luo Yanning was thinking about the Empress Temple. After the greetings, she went straight to the topic and said, "I came here to buy some paint this time. I'm not in a hurry to use it."
"You kid, why are you trying to be so polite to me? Just use it as much as you want. I don't want to buy anything. You're embarrassing me."
Wang Weidong pointed to the shelves in the store and said with a look of displeasure: "My family has a big business and needs your paint."
"Weidong, if you say that, then I will go elsewhere. There are many people selling paint in the market, not just yours."
Luo Yanning said with a serious face: "I'm not here to take advantage of you. At most, you can give me a wholesale price. What's the point of taking it for nothing?"
"What's the point of giving money or not? You, a buddy, can still afford it. Yanli and I never bought a ticket when we went to your scenic spot." Wang Weidong was telling the truth. Luo Yanning kept talking.
Send him some tickets to scenic spots.
"One code equals another, and brothers are still settling accounts." Luo Yanning waved her hands before the two could argue again, "Besides, I have to go. I won't dare to come to your place to buy anything in the future."
Wang Weidong also knew Luo Yanning's temper and stopped being polite to him: "Okay, okay, I'm convinced. It seems like your donkey temper will never change in this life."
"That's pretty much it." Luo Yanning smiled and took out the list he had written in advance from his pocket, "Just get the cheapest one, there is no requirement for quality."
"26 barrels of red paint, 28 barrels of yellow paint, 19 barrels of green paint, 16 barrels of blue paint..." Wang Weidong said after reading the list, "Okay, I'll go order some goods for you."
Half an hour later, a small truck was filled to the brim with 89 16-pound barrels of paint.
The total price was 10,580 yuan, and Wang Weidong had to pay zero for it no matter what he said. In the end, he only calculated 10,000 yuan, and he still had to deliver it to his door.
After buying the paint, Luo Yanning went to purchase other materials. He was so busy that he couldn't even touch the floor for a whole morning.
480 million bricks accounted for most of the cost.
If you don’t build a house, you don’t know that building a house is expensive. A piece of red brick can be sold for 50 cents.
The 48,000 bricks cost Luo Yanning 24,000 yuan.
Including the freight charges paid to several master workers, the total is 25,500 yuan.
The remaining 25 square meters of wood and 38 square meters of stone may seem like a lot, but the cost is about the same as painting.
I bought 25 square meters of matches at a lumber factory that saw wood around the scenic spot, costing 5,000 yuan.
An additional 400 yuan for shipping will be added to the package and will be sent directly to the scenic spot.
The 38 cubic meters of waste stone bought at the stone factory is cheaper than firewood, only 4,000 yuan, plus 500 yuan to get it home.
All in all, all materials plus shipping cost a total of 45,400 yuan.
The materials are ready, and Luo Yanning's small treasury is at its bottom.
At 4:10 in the afternoon, all the materials purchased in the morning were piled up in an open space about 300 meters away from the entrance of the scenic spot.
Luo Yanning stood still in front of the mountain of materials and opened the system page with a thought.
Then he took out the scroll of "Bixia Yuanjun Empress Temple Construction Drawings" from his backpack and slowly unfolded it.
The list of materials required for construction at the bottom of the drawing becomes:
25/25 cubic meters of wood, 38/38 cubic meters of stone, 48000/48000 red bricks, 26/26 barrels of red paint, 28/28 barrels of yellow paint, 19/19 barrels of green paint, and 16/16 barrels of blue paint.
At the same time, the system prompts: [The required materials have been prepared, would you like to start the mirror construction immediately? 】
Luo Yanning turned around and glanced at the entrance of the scenic spot. Shui Miaomiao had taken leave today, and only he and Uncle Luo, the gatekeeper, were left in the scenic spot.
Uncle Luo is deaf and mute, and he is also a homebody. He stays at the scenic spot as a gatekeeper 365 days a year, not interacting with or chatting with anyone.
"Construct immediately!" Luo Yanning considered for a while and then made a choice.
The moment the construction order was issued, several blue lights flashed out from the place where the materials were piled, and a blue fence as high as two people was erected.
Then, the sound of construction equipment rumbling from the enclosure came out, and the smell of dust and paint came to the nostrils.
The location where Luo Yanning stood was less than 10 meters away from the construction site. It was difficult to tell the authenticity from such a close distance.
Out of curiosity, Luo Yanning walked until she was less than 1 meter away from the fence before stopping.
When I reached out and touched it, my palm was actually blocked by the construction fence, and it felt extremely real.
"This mirror construction is really amazing..." Luo Yanning sighed and took back her palms.
At the same time, a countdown appears on the system interface: 71:59:55.
It took three days to build a 600-square-meter Empress Temple. This construction progress is not too shocking.
There are stories of building buildings being built in the three days in the news.
"Gulu, Gulu..."
Her stomach made waves of protests, and Luo Yanning realized that she had been busy running around all day, and now she didn't even eat lunch.
Looking away from the mirror construction site, Luo Yanning turned and walked towards the entrance of the scenic spot.
"Uncle, our scenic spot has been open for sale for three days. No one can be invited in during these three days, not even if the county magistrate comes." Luo Yanning explained to Uncle Luo with gestures.
"Ahhhhhh!" Uncle Luo said and gestured, nodded, and pointed at a black Chinese pastoral dog tied to the iron fence, indicating that he understood.
Luo Yanning smiled and said: "Yes, if anyone dares to break in, let the dogs bite him."
After explaining to Uncle Luo, Luo Yanning left with peace of mind and drove straight to Luojiazhuang next to the scenic spot.
