A month and a half passed in the blink of an eye.
Zhang Heng finally set up his new home, including a two-story building, a cowshed, and a horse pen. Initially, he wanted to start a vegetable garden, but the land wasn't suitable for crops. Even if he were given the seeds and took good care of them, he wouldn't obtain a good yield. In the end, Zhang Heng gave up.
He was not an expert in building stuff or had very high requirements for the quality of life. Mainly because Matthew gave him a large piece of land, but there was nothing on it but grass. He had no choice but to build everything himself.
Fortunately, he had not wholly forgotten the building techniques he learned from the short man in the novice dungeon he entered. After getting paid for killing Cook, he hired two more helpers and a mason.
