This was also why she hadn't insisted on Yi Anguo marrying her.
Chen Ting was over seven months pregnant and due in another two. Her belly was quite large, and Yi Anguo asked after her with concern.
Just then, Yi Xiaolin called. He was excited, telling Yi Anguo that they had found a huge amount of Huali wood deep in the mountains of Haidao Province, in a village of the Li Ethnic Group. It wasn't just logs, either. Many of the old houses throughout the Li village were also built from Huali wood. In addition, many of the old pieces of furniture in the homes of these Li residents were crafted from it as well.
"Have you taken stock? Roughly how much is there?" Yi Anguo asked.
"The quantity is insane. There's no way I can tally it all at once," Yi Xiaolin replied happily. "That godforsaken place doesn't even have landlines. My cell phone is useless for anything but telling time—there's absolutely no signal. I had to run out to a town outside the mountains just to make this call."
