Returning back to the room in the “barbarian village”, the previously busy Bai Yang found himself extremely sleepy right now. Without him knowing, he had been up for more than 20 hours, so he decisively lay down on the bed and covered himself with the soft fur as he went straight to sleep.

After sleeping, Bai Yang returned to his energetic state. He took a look at his phone and noticed that he slept for nearly 8 hours. But from the brightness outside the window, Bai Yang finds that the sun hanging high in the sky barely even moved.

How long exactly is a day over here?

Bai Yang walked out the door, without paying attention to the ground, he tripped over something. He then felt himself landed on something soft and warm, and a light sweet scent from some kind of plant entered his nose.

His eyes met with another pair of eyes, staring at each other, there were neither screams or slaps. The awkward moment froze right there.

“Why are you sitting in front of my room…”

Hurriedly getting back on his feet, Bai Yang asked in a little unnatural tone, even though the girl did not understand him.

But that unintentional touch felt pretty nice?

The girl, whose name Bai Yang did not know until now, blinked her eyes and stood up from the ground. She began to say something as she started making gestures.

Through interpretation and guessing, Bai Yang took some time to understand her. She was, in fact, worried that Bai Yang couldn't find her after he woke up, so she decided to wait at the doorstep and ended up falling asleep after sitting down. In the end, Bai Yang opened the door and tripped onto her.

This is not the main point….

Bai Yang mumbled in his heart, I did not do it intentionally but after being touched by an unfamiliar man, you should really do something, instead of giving no response at all. You are making me not feeling sorr…. Hey, what are you thinking Bai Yang!

With a complicated mind, Bai Yang started making gestures. A problem that shouldn't have taken long to resolve became incredibly prolonged just because they couldn't understand each other. After a while of Bai Yang wildly gesticulating, the girl finally understood that he wanted her to bring him to the elder old man.

Upon finding the old man, Bai Yang thought, You really know how to enjoy your time.

Between the trees was a hammock, and the old man was laying in it as he let the wind rock the hammock for him.

From that ensued another round of twisted gestures and the exchange of words that neither party understood. But eventually, the old man understood that Bai Yang wanted to stay a little longer. However, it was a little awkward and embarra.s.sing if he continued to stay in the elder old man's house, so he was wondering if the villagers could help him build a home, with payment of course.

This was not a big deal, the elder old man who learned of Bai Yang's request seemed more than happy to know it, and judging from his facial expression and tone, Bai Yang could tell that the elder old man replied that there was not a single problem….

The girl who had been following Bai Yang also seemingly understood, she was even keener on it than Bai Yang. She quickly walked towards him and started chirping something with the alluring voice of her.

Then it was Bai Yang who was stunned after seeing firsthand the working efficiency of the barbarians.

About 20 of the big guys were summoned, each carrying a big saber with them into the forest. Minutes later, the thunderous sound of trees falling down could be heard not far away before ma.s.sive tree trunks were being transported back.

Wood dust flew everywhere, as the tree trunks were hacked into planks with unadulterated brute force. They then started digging holes on the planks before moving them onto a huge tree in the village. They installing these planks onto firm tree branches using the holes they made. Plank by plank, a platform was formed on the tree, and soon enough, a rough figure of a treehouse was forming.…

The whole process took no longer than two hours, and a brand new house of at least 80 square meters big appeared on the tree, stunning Bai Yang with awe.

He then let out a cry, picked up some wood sc.r.a.ps, examined its texture patterns, and smelled it. After examining another fresh tree branch on the ground, he fell back on his b.u.t.t and looked at the newly built treehouse with a blank mind.

“Even a golden house is worth about the same? A house made entirely of red sandalwood, just how expensive is it…”

Bai Yang specifically checked the details of the trees before he came here, so now he was very sure that his treehouse was entirely made of red sandalwood It was a precious wood, whose scent was capable of refreshening one's mind, as well as repel insects along with many other benefits….

No wonder the houses here had no insects despite such hot weather….

Bai Yang mindlessly looked at the houses in the village. These hitherto simple tree houses had taken on a new l.u.s.ter in his eyes….

He turned around and looked at the big guys who were staring back at him with a puzzled look and Bai Yang felt an intense aura of wealth from them….

If one considers a whole set of red sandalwood furniture as rich? Then what am I, with a whole house built entirely from it…!

At this point, Bai Yang couldn't find a way to describe his emotions right now, this forest was full of gold, and whether or not you'd get rich depends on how hardworking you are.

“Stay calm, stay calm, too much supply is no good, stay calm my a.s.s!”

Bai Yang who regained his senses immediately ran towards a big guy hacking the wood and made gestures to him to tell him to follow. This big guy then ran into the jungle with another few more of his brethren, soon returning with a dozen smaller red sandalwood trees…..

The internet says that red sandalwood is very hard to raise even if matured. They are usually hollow in the center, so why is the red sandalwood here so st.u.r.dy?

Circling around the newly chopped trees, Bai Yang frowned as he thought, he went to observe the trees' annual ring. Forget it, there were so many of them that made them impossible to count. From the look of it, they were at least 200 years old, so the only explanation he could think of was that it was due to the environment.

After another round of gestures, Bai Yang commanded the big guys to hack the newly chopped trees into blocks. Not long later, there was a tiny hill made of wooden blocks.

He was not that stupid to bring the red sandalwood trees back in whole, for the trees that were 80cm in diameter were already ancient trees. With the size of the red sandalwood trees, he was destined to face the death penalty if he brought it back whole.

Back in 2004 in India, a special grade of red sandalwood was reportedly 500,000 to 600,000 dollars for a tonne, so now it should be even higher than that. This one right here is about 20 to 30 tons? Does that mean that I'm sitting on more than 10 million? The only price I pay is just cheap stuff like sugar! If the tree is processed into a whole new product, the price would even multiply by folds!.

Looking at the red sandalwood blocks, Bai Yang's mind was blank.

Though a bracelet made from this kind of wood was sold off at the price of hundred thousands, that was a finished product, and the price was manipulated, the actual raw materials were never worth as much expected.

After thinking for some time, Bai Yang sadly discovered that if he did not want to set up a whole new factory to produce furnitures, it would be a waste to sell these precious materials to someone else, which was the same as giving them most of the profit.

Bah, these blocks alone are more than enough to empty dad's pocket. After he processed them and sold them off as finished products, I will get him another batch of materials and empty his pockets again!

A decision was happily made by Bai Yang just like that. As for working with the furniture? This thought never came into his mind at all for this was entirely strengthening the enemies' strength, unless he knocked his head, he would never do so. If he really did have this kind of idea, he might as well go look for radishes… Oh no, it's ginseng to sell off.

At the same time, he also had his own idea, which was that he would get in touch with even more people in this world. If there was a skilled carpenter, he would try to employ him; his idea was to open his own factory here and sell the furniture back on Earth, if you want to buy, then buy, if not, get out!

After returning to a calmer state, Bai Yang noticed that the sun was setting, and he tapped his head as he recalled something. He ran towards the outside and turned around to observe the markings he made to record time.

“A day in this world has about 50 hours? That's twice as long as a day on Earth. Is there also the concept of a year, month, or season in this world? I probably can't even remember the date and day on Earth after staying too long in this place….”

Bai Yang murmured as he walked back at the now dark night, back into his own treehouse. He was shocked to find that at some earlier time, all his basic necessities had already been prepared, and the girl who had been following him was happily keeping herself busy with some matters.

“What? Is she going to be staying with me?”

Shouted a stunned Bai Yang as he saw the girl tidying the bed.
