Chapter 1033 Ranch Design
Anyway, Shen He wore two long skirts. Considering that she would help Ying take care of the children in the future, she probably wouldn't need to ride a horse or anything like that...
As for Kong, if he likes to wear it, he can wear it; of course, if he doesn’t like to wear it... would he dare to object?
Shao Yun believed in Qian Zhi's art and said, "Then, I will pay the full amount directly. If it is expedited, how long will it take?"
"We might have to go to Nata soon. We can save the postage by going earlier or later."
When Qianzhi heard about the expedited order, she scratched her head in frustration and said, "If it's expedited, I'll have to stay up all night to finish the work, and I'll have to ask Ai Luofu to help cut the fabric..."
"Well, four sets of clothes would normally take ten days, but if we expedite it, we can make them in five. But I'll charge you a bit more for your hard work. How about 900,000 Mora?"
After listening to this, Shao Yun tapped his fingers lightly on his palm - four different sets of clothes cost 900,000 yuan for an urgent order. If he made a few more sets of each for Shen He and Kong to wear alternately, he would not have to place additional orders later.
"How about this, Qianzhi, make four or five more sets of each, and make Shen He's long skirt more suitable for her temperament."
"I want a couple of extra coats for my brother-in-law so they can rotate. I'll give you six million Mora for the price. How's that?"
Qian Zhi was shocked when she heard Shao Yun directly offer "five million" Mora, and also wanted to expedite the process and order four or five sets of each item. It felt like Shao Yun's shopping style was really abstract.
"You really know how to torment me..."
Shao Yun had his own reasons. He spread his hands and said in a relaxed tone as if he was saying "buy a bag of snacks".
"Spend what you should spend, save what you should save. Why are you being so stingy? If you lose money, can't you just earn it again?"
Qianzhi originally wanted to complain about Shao Yun’s concept of money, but then she thought, he doesn’t seem to be short of money.
"That's right, you were the best supporting actor in the first Thousand Spirits Shadow Festival, so you probably don't need this little Mora..."
She lowered her head and calculated. For more than ten sets of custom-made clothes, even if they were made of the best wear-resistant fabrics, plus the expedited fee, six million Mora was a lot more.
Thinking of this, Qianzhi agreed immediately.
"Alright! Six million is six million! I'll make a list of fabrics right away and contact the supplier this afternoon. I'll try to get them ready for you within five days. I guarantee every set will be durable and fit you perfectly!"
……
Now that everything was settled, Shao Yun started to pay.
That’s right, it literally means taking out money.
With a "crash" sound, the bag hit the wooden floor of Qianzhi's house. The bag was not tied tightly, and several shiny Mora rolled out, making people dizzy in the sunlight.
"What are you..."
Qianzhi watched Shao Yun take out sacks of Mora from his waist bag, and felt that Shao Yun might have some serious illness!
"No, you can just pay the bill. Can't you just transfer the money to my store account through Northland Bank? I have to carry all these sacks of Mora to the bank myself later. I'm exhausted!"
Shao Yun took out the fifth bag of Mora and placed it side by side with the first four bags.
When he heard the words "Northland Bank", he suddenly laughed and a playful smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
"Northland Bank? Haha, I don't think the people at their counter would welcome me."
Qianzhi was confused.
"What do you mean? Do you have a grudge against Northland Bank?"
Shao Yun had no intention of bringing up the story of how he had "borrowed" Mora from the Northern Bank during the chaos in Liyue. He simply waved his hand and said, avoiding the main point:
"I have a grudge against the Fatui, so, haha, let's just do it in cash."
When Qian Zhi heard that Shao Yun had a grudge against the Fatui, she was at a loss as to what to say. She herself was well aware of the Fatui's reputation in various countries, so she didn't ask any further questions.
But she couldn't help but feel worried when she saw the bulging sack at her feet. She rubbed her temples and whispered to herself:
"The main thing is, these sacks of over five million Mora are too heavy... I definitely can't move them by myself. Should I ask Xia Wulei for help?"
……
In short, the money has been paid, and the snacks bought by Shao Yun have satisfied everyone's stomachs.
So, where should we go for a stroll in the afternoon?
After everyone walked out of Qianzhi's house, Shao Yun suddenly remembered the "Thousand Spirits Shadow Festival" that Qianzhi had mentioned just now.
Time flies so fast. The film industry in Fontainebleau must have produced many movies.
When Shao Yun thought of this, he had an idea and took the initiative to suggest: "Next, how about we go buy some movies?"
"Nata's entertainment isn't as developed as Fontaine's, and some of it is particularly hardcore. I'm worried you might not be able to handle it."
After hearing Shao Yun's words, Ying became very curious about Nata's entertainment activities and asked quickly, "What exactly are Nata's entertainment activities like?"
Shao Yun touched his chin, thought for a moment, then listed a recreational activity in the land of Natawo and said, "For example, wrestling with a dragon?"
When Ying heard about wrestling with a dragon, she couldn't help feeling ashamed. She imagined that the scene of herself fighting with a huge dragon would be similar to fighting Tevarin in the sky.
Thinking of this, she agreed to Shao Yun's suggestion to buy Yingying to watch.
"Well... well, we should definitely buy some film," Ying said.
Then Ying asked again, "By the way, do you know where to buy Yingying film?"
Shao Yun scratched his head. He didn't know either...
So what should you do when you're undecided? Of course, ask our Catherine!
"Ah...how about we ask Miss Catherine?" Shao Yun said with a smile.
When Ying heard Shao Yun say that he was looking for Catherine, she couldn't help but reach out and poke his arm.
But then I thought about it and just treated it as shopping.
"Okay, I'll just spend some time with you at Fontaine..."
Shao Yun grabbed her poking hand and squeezed it gently.
"That's called 'When in doubt, ask Catherine.' She's the most well-informed person in all of Fontaine. She's sure to know where it's for sale."
At this moment, Xi, who was in Shen He's arms, had narrowed her eyes into slits, and her little fists were still clenching the corner of Shen He's clothes. She occasionally let out a soft hum, and it was obvious that she was sleepy.
So, Shen He said to everyone, "Ying, you guys go shopping first. I'll take the baby back to the Thorn Rose Club base. After shopping for the whole morning, the baby went back to sleep."
As she spoke, she carefully adjusted her hugging position to make Xi more comfortable.
Kong also felt that he had enough shopping this morning and wanted to go back with Shen He.
By the way, take a good look at your little niece!
"Then I'll go back with you, sister and brother-in-law. Let's meet at the Thorn Rose Society's base tonight."
……
Since Shen He still had time to wander around, Shao Yun didn't force him and let them take their daughter back to rest.
Finally, Shao Yun, Ying and Paimeng, a family of three, went shopping.
After the two walked away, Shao Yun turned around and looked at Ying and Paimeng and waved.
"Let's go to the Adventurer's Guild and ask about Yingying."
Paimon immediately floated to the front, shaking his short legs.
"Great! I want to see if there are any good movies in Fontaine recently. It's best if they tell about slime adventures!"
When Ying heard this, she felt that Paimon was being abstract.
"Paimon, are you kidding me?"
……
Not long after walking, the three of them saw the reception desk of the Adventurer's Association.
Catherine's voice remained gentle and professional.
"Towards the stars and the abyss, welcome to the Adventurer's Guild, Mr. Shao Yun, Ms. Ying, and Ms. Paimeng. Are you looking for a commission?"
"We would like to ask where we can buy Fontaine's film?" Shao Yun asked directly.
When Catherine heard the request, she immediately took out three promotional projection sheets from under the counter and handed them to the three people.
"That's perfect! The Fontaine Film Industry has recently partnered with our Adventurers Association. They not only provide film consultation, but also allow us to directly purchase film and projection equipment."
"Here's the latest popular movie list, you can take a look."
Paimon rushed over first, pointed at the title on the projection list and read it aloud.
"'Secrets of the Opera House,' 'Exploration of the Underwater Ancient City,' 'The Strange Daily Life of Slime'... Wow, there really are reflections of slime!"
Ying took the film list and flipped through it carefully. She saw that it not only had the film name and type, but also a brief plot introduction and a poster thumbnail.
Every page is printed with the words "Specially recommended by the Fontainebleau Photography Association", which shows that the industry has indeed been driven to vigor and vitality.
"I didn't expect the association to cooperate with the film industry." Ying was a little surprised.
Shao Yun recalled that he had asked Catherine about accommodation before, and she had recommended renting a house. The real estate industry in Fontaine had also cooperated with the Adventurer's Association.
Now it seems that the association has become a 'promotional window' for various industries in Fontaine."
Catherine nodded gently and recommended, "This time, the film industry has launched a 'Grand Opening Rewards' event."
"You can take home a small home projector for only 200,000 Mora. The price of a single film roll ranges from 8,000 to 20,000 Mora. If buying it isn't worth it, you can rent it in Fontaineland for just 1,000 Mora a month."
"Only one thousand Mora per month?" Ying was a little surprised. "It's cheaper than I thought! Unfortunately, we won't live in Fontaine, so we can only buy it..."
Paimon looked at the list, his eyes sparkling. "I'm going to choose 'The Strange Daily Life of Slime' and 'Exploration of the Underwater Ancient City'!"
Catherine smiled and took out the order book.
"Take your time to choose. Once you've made your selection, I'll have someone from the association deliver the projector and film to the Thorn Rose Society's headquarters. You don't have to carry them yourself."
After Paimeng made his choice, he filled in the information with a smile. As for the money, it must be Shao Yun who paid for it!
……
Just then, a burst of hurried footsteps accompanied by familiar shouts were heard.
"Mr. Shao Yun! Mr. Shao Yun! Good news!"
The three of them looked up at the same time and saw Kavi jogging in, unable to hide the excitement in his eyes.
He ran to Shao Yun, held his knees and took two breaths before standing up.
"Good news! It's really good news!"
Shao Yun put down the shadow list in his hand, raised an eyebrow, and guessed: "Let me guess... Could it be that the ranch issue has been resolved?"
"Yes, yes, yes!" Kavi immediately nodded vigorously, like a student who had been recognized, and gestured with his hands excitedly.
"Thanks to Miss Navia's help, I've already negotiated with the Fontaine material supplier! The wood and stone are at the best price, and they are also responsible for door-to-door delivery! What's more important is."
As he spoke, Kavi took out the ranch design from the multi-functional toolbox "Mehrak" and handed it to Shao Yun with both hands.
"I've also finished the rough draft of the house! I revised it three times overnight to ensure it was both practical and beautiful!"
Shao Yun took the ranch design and said, "Really? Let me see..."
As he watched, Kavi came over and explained with sparkling eyes:
"I designed a single-family house with three living rooms, five bedrooms, six bathrooms, and a basement."
"The ranch comes with a horse shed, two livestock pens for raising cattle and sheep, and a chicken coop!"
He pointed to a square area in the corner of the drawing, and his tone became more satisfied.
"I have a piece of farmland here where I grow some vegetables and fruits, enough for my family to eat. I also built a pavilion next to it where you can enjoy the cool air!"
Shao Yun listened to Kavi's introduction while looking at the design drawings.
How should I put it? He is indeed a professional architectural designer.
If the house in the design was placed in Fengdan Shaoyun, it would be said that there was nothing wrong with it!
But the problem now is that this ranch is to be built in Nata! Can you realize all these modern things in Nata?
"The ranch plan looks quite appealing to me, but have you ever considered whether all these things can fit into the area I showed you?"
"Also, this bathroom. Nataco doesn't have the corresponding basic facilities!"
Although Nata is not as backward as imagined, its infrastructure is indeed quite backward...
Sinoning is a talented craftsman, but even if she works herself to death, she can never build Nata's drainage facilities like Fontaine's!
After hearing Shao Yun's question, Kavi touched his chin and began to murmur.
"This is indeed a problem, but I've already thought about it. So, I've designed some purification equipment and a water heater in the basement. As long as the power issue can be solved, I can guarantee that there won't be any problems at all!"
"It's this power issue. I haven't figured it out yet. After all, Fontaine has Law Compensation Mixed Energy and Wild Mang Energy. I can't always import energy tanks from Fontaine..."
When Shao Yun heard that as long as the energy problem could be solved, everything else would not be a problem, he thought of Nata's unique phlogiston.
When I showed Xitlari the movie, she seemed to have mentioned that Sinoning had made a phlogiston refrigerator or something...
"I remember that there's something called phlogiston in Nata, and I know a craftsman in Nata who can make things that use phlogiston as a power source. You can study it with her when the time comes."
When Kavi heard this, he breathed a sigh of relief and said:
"Really? If Nata has wild energy or law compensation mixed energy similar to Fontaine, then there shouldn't be any problem."
Shao Yun touched his chin and muttered about Xinoning.
"It seems that I will need to hire Xinoning. Considering her life-saving grace, she should be willing to help me build the ranch."
Since there are no problems on Nata's side, Kavi now feels that his mission in Fontaine has been completed. The next step is to go to Nata for an on-site inspection.
"So...when do we leave?"
Shao Yun returned the ranch design to Kawei and said, "Wait until Miss Qianzhi finishes making new clothes for Shen He and my brother-in-law. Then we will set off for Nata."
……
At the same time, in Nata, in Sinoning's workshop.
After finishing his forging work, Xinoning lay down on his bed, exhausted.
Suddenly, Sinoning felt a chill on his back, and his tail bristled with hair! He said in horror, "Why do I feel a chill on my back? Could it be that Mavica has some damn idea for me to realize again?"
……
(Xinoning, who later learned the truth, said: Oh my god! You fire-type guys, are you going to let me, a "leopard", live?)
(Shao Yun: There is enough bitter water.)
(Sinonen: Really? Sure, sure!)
