Chapter 516: Playing Along!
Translator: Lonelytree
In just a few days, Lin Yuelan had asked people to build a wood workshop!
The purpose of building this wood workshop was very simple. It was to build all kinds of wood to make furniture.
For example, there was the threshing machine and a wheelchair that had already been invented, and Lin Yuelan was planning to make a windmill for grain transportation.
However, she didn’t plan to hire anyone to become a carpenter. Instead, she would purchase labor and train them herself to become the first batch of elite carpenters.
Of course, that would come later.
In the past few days, Lin yuelan had been busy collecting and drying grains while having people make threshing machines. Her biggest problem was dealing with waves of people. At the same time, she had been thinking hard about how to use a windmill to mill grains.
The structure of this windmill was a little more complicated than that of a threshing machine. What was more complicated was the internal structure of this windmill.
However, this time, Lin yuelan didn’t go into seclusion for three days. Instead, she explained to Jiang Zhennan the appearance and function of the windmill in her memory. Jiang Zhennan understood these things with just a little bit of explanation. He was simply born to be a carpenter. However, he was a real God of War, the defender General of the Long Yan Kingdom.
“Damn,” Lin yuelan knocked on Jiang Zhennan’s agile hands and suddenly cursed, ” masked uncle, you’re going to steal all the jobs from the carpenters!”
Lin yuelan was amazed by his skillful cutting of wood, peeling, and removing the dregs.
She said, “Masked uncle, if you can’t be a general one day, you can be a Carpenter. You can also live a good life.”
Jiang Zhennan’s cold face couldn’t help but turn slightly red after being praised by Lin yuelan.
He said shyly, “Miss Yue ‘Er, you … You complimented me? ”
Lin yuelan giggled and teased him, ” masked uncle, are you shy? ” She narrowed her eyes and looked at Jiang Zhennan’s slightly red ears.
Just as Jiang Zhennan was at a loss of what to do after being teased, he suddenly heard little twelve shouting outside the door, “Miss Lin, boss, bad news, bad news …”
From his tone, it was obvious that he was panicking.
Lin yuelan and Jiang Zhennan frowned at the same time. Then, Lin yuelan stood up and said to little twelve, who was running towards them, ” brother little twelve, what’s wrong? ”
The wood workshop was located behind the yard, about one or two hundred meters away from the small thatched house. Little twelve was running from the front of the small thatched house to the back.
However, because he had trained regularly, this small distance did not cause him to be out of breath. However, he was still panting a little.
Little twelve said anxiously, ” Miss Lin, something happened. That steward Yan said that the young master of the Yan family had gone missing. He’s now here to ask us to hand over their young master. Their little young master is missing, and they’re actually asking us for their little young master.”
Hearing little twelve’s words, Lin yuelan’s clear brows turned, and she knew what the Yan family was planning.
She said, ” let’s go, brother little twelve. Let’s go and take a look together.”
As he spoke, he walked out of the door. Jiang Zhennan held a piece of wood, thought for a moment, and put it down. He immediately followed Lin yuelan and walked to the front room.
Before they reached the thatched cottage, they could hear the Yan family’s steward shouting in front of the courtyard, ” Lin yuelan, you wretched girl! Hand over our young master now! Otherwise, we’ll report you to the court for kidnapping! You’ll have to bear the consequences!”
The manservants below followed suit. “hurry up and hand over my young master. Hand him over. Otherwise, we’ll report this to the officials!”
“Sure, go ahead and sue me, ” Lin yuelan said from a distance. The crowd automatically made way for her when they saw her. “I’d like to see how you’re going to make me pay for this baseless accusation!”
As soon as he saw Lin yuelan, steward Yan’s eyes narrowed. Then, he snorted at Lin yuelan, ” Hmph, how can there be no evidence? You said in public that you would take my young master’s life. Now, my young master is missing. If you didn’t capture him, who else could it be? Otherwise, why would my young master disappear for no reason?”
