In the following days, Zhou Wuchang hired people to purchase some square stones, timber, bamboo, and enough tiles to cover five rooms.
Within less than ten days, these materials had arrived one by one.
When building the house, the laborers from the surrounding villages all came to help, and they got a full meal at noon.
When the house was almost finished, a group of soldiers suddenly arrived, with a sneering leader at the head, shouting, "Who allowed you to build a house here?"
The villagers became nervous at the sight of these troops from a nearby military camp, gradually stopping their work.
Little Douzi, who was helping to carry tiles, saw the trouble coming and quickly slipped back to the village to find Zhou Wuchang, "Sir, the officer from the military camp has come and forbidden us from building. You need to come and see!"
"Alright, lead the way." Zhou Wuchang got up, attached the purple and gold dagger to his waist, and followed Little Douzi to Stone Spring Mountain.
