Chapter 135: The Villagers’ Shock 5

Within half a month, the house that the villagers had been keeping their eye on had been built to its third floor with each and every one of the eaves looking exceptionally stylish. Every day, the villagers would pretend to just be passing by but they were all eager to sneak a peek.

“Oh Master, this is just a residential house, you are all being too serious about it.” Old Man Wang muttered as he scratched his head doubtfully.

“What do you mean just a residential house…” Master Bao heard this and could not refrain from rolling his eyes.

The recipient of the eye roll, Old Man Wang, was speechless. Walking quietly back to the door of the house, he said to some of the villagers exasperatedly, “Is this not just some house? Are you perhaps saying that I’m wrong?”

“No, you’re not wrong.” Old Man Yang said with a laugh.

Old Man Wang replied gloomily, “Then why did the old masters roll their eyes at me?”

Old Man Yang was surprised. He did not think that the old masters would do something like that, so he decided to go and talk to them himself. When he got closer, he found the old masters sitting on the floor of the room, examining the blueprints seriously. Old Man Yang said sheepishly, “Old masters, this is just a country house a girl from our village is having built for herself.”

“…”

Master Cen raised his head and threw a glance at Old Man Yang.

He did not say a word.

Just from that subtle gaze itself, Old Man Yang felt as if he had been given a supercilious look.

After he walked back rather awkwardly, he met the gazes of a few of them, feeling that there was something unusual about the situation. These few old masters seemed too serious about a simple house.

They all went to Ma Sanye’s house.

“Village head, could you ask around just what exactly is going on? Whenever anyone asks anything, they get nothing but an eye-roll.” Old Man Yang was just curious.

“Exactly, those few masters are basically just looking down on us.” Old Man Wang was a fellow who enjoyed fanning the flames sometimes.

They shared everything from the start till the end.

Ma Sanye decided to find out what happened.

He carried a few pots of tea over to the old masters who were discussing the blueprints and the house.

“Hello masters, come take a rest and have some tea.”

The old masters had been here for half a month and knew who Ma Sanye was.

So, they decided to humor him and take a break.

They all sat down.

“I am the head of the village.” Ma Sanye zealously poured the old masters some tea and in a pretense of casualness, he asked, “Old masters, I see that you all seem to be taking this house very seriously and you’ve built it with great care. You’re already on the third floor. How many floors are there in this house?

“Oh, don’t you know about this?” Master Dong looked toward the building with a proud expression.

“I’m all ears.” Ma Sanye was very humble.

Master Cao wiped the sweat off his forehead and looked at the house. His gaze was as if he was looking at his own child and he said emotionally, “This house will have five floors in total, so only two are left!”

“Ah, five floors?” Ma Sanye turned his head and looked at the three-story house that already stood out among the ordinary village houses.

“This is the work of master Li Qinglian, the big-time design genius from the mainland,” Master Hao said with a delighted smile. “How would we be able to showcase that we maximized the utilization of this small area of space without having at least a few floors?”

The other masters nodded one after another.

Old Man Yuan agreed wholeheartedly.

“Ah?” Ma Sanye was taken aback.

Old Man Yuan sighed. “Look at you country folks. You look like you haven’t seen the world before.”

“B-But…” ‘Who was Master Li Qinglian?’ Ma Sanye had naturally never heard of him before. It was not as if he was involved with the construction industry, but seeing the expressions of worship on the old masters’ faces, he thought that this Master Li Qinglian must be a world-renowned individual. However, Qi Qingyao was just an ordinary lady with children, how did she even come to meet this big shot of the construction world? That was why Ma Sanye was a little skeptical. “May I ask where did you get the Master’s blueprints from?”
