Chapter 12

Jiang Chen and Pink Rabbit were watching the little zombie taking a nap in the villa.

The little zombie was wearing his pajamas and sleeping obediently under the quilt.

The twins in the small bed next to him rolled onto his bed in no time.

The little zombie was sandwiched between the twins, one on each side. The two of them had already wrapped themselves around the little zombie, rubbing against him left and right, and then soon fell asleep.

Pink Rabbit frowned, "Why are these two little bear friends pestering the young master like this?"

"Master, is this really okay?"

Jiang Chen was drawing a design for their new home, a pleased smile on his face. "It's okay. Little Zombie must be very happy to have such a good relationship with his classmates, right?"

In Dongqi, Xiao Jiang, despite being the crown prince, had no children of the same age to play with. The crown prince's noble status made it impossible for him to have much contact with other children.

It’s not a bad thing that Xiao Zhuang can now get along with his peers like ordinary children.

Jiang Chen had completed most of the design draft early in the morning.

From the facade of the villa to every room, pavilions, towers, flower beds and fish ponds are all painted clearly.

He has always missed the classical solemnity of Dongqi architecture and the poetic beauty of every window and scene.

Especially when it rains, he likes to hold Xiao Zhuang under the eaves of the pavilion in the middle of the lake, make tea and watch the rain.

He and Xiao Zhuang were alone and helpless in this strange world, and they could only rely on memories to support their homesickness.

Thinking of this, Jiang Chen couldn't help feeling a little sad.

God has given him and Xiao Zhuang another chance to live, and he will definitely cherish it.

The design drawings of the entire villa were completed quickly and well.

Jiang Chen also drew the furniture he wanted separately, even marking the dimensions clearly.

Pink Rabbit looked at Jiang Chen painting seriously and couldn't help but be fascinated by the charm he exuded.

When Jiang Chen creates, it's like he has a magical power that can calm impatient people.

Jiang Chen finished the last stroke, checked it carefully, looked up and asked, "Master Steward, is this enough?"

Pink Rabbit came back to his senses: "That's enough, I'll go and contact the master right away."

Jiang Chen's design annotations were written in interstellar script, which was extremely neatly written. I have never seen anyone write such beautiful words.

He quickly scanned the design and stored it in the memory device.

Seeing Pink Rabbit about to leave, Jiang Chen was a little confused, "Master Butler, don't we need to take this design drawing?"

"I've already saved it in the database and signed it for you, Master. You can rest assured."

Jiang Chen couldn't master the high technology of the interstellar era in a short period of time. Now that he had the pink rabbit, he could rest assured. He nodded and said, "Then I'll trouble you, butler."

"No problem!" After saying that, the pink rabbit went out as fast as possible.

He had just looked at Jiang Chen's design drawings. This part was blank in the entire interstellar space. There was no similar building in the big data to the one in Jiang Chen's design drawings.

The architectural drawings were extremely exquisite, and they were hand-drawn. He then realized that his master was a very good designer. In the future, he would definitely help his master protect his intellectual property rights.

Pink Rabbit is very clear that this design cannot be done by any factory, and a confidentiality agreement must be signed.

Otherwise, if such a good design were to be leaked, wouldn’t the owner be at a great loss?

As a professional housekeeper, you not only have to manage household affairs, but also do your best to help your employer protect assets.

Pink Rabbit understands the principle of shared prosperity very well. Only when the employer does well can he get a share of the profits. He no longer wants to serve those unreasonable and low-quality families.

He will definitely do his best to serve Jiang Chen and Xiao Jiang.

…

The First Federal Military Academy.

In the lecture hall, the General of the Federal Iron Shield Corps was giving a lecture himself.

Shu Jinye stared at the terminal absent-mindedly in the audience.

"Boss, what's wrong with you?"

The follower beside him poked his arm, but Shu Jinye ignored it.

He stared at the design drawing in the terminal. The appearance of the book was elegant and unique. From yesterday until now, he would take it out to appreciate it whenever he had time.

If he had the chance, he really wanted to meet the owner of this design.

Suddenly, another request came from the terminal work group.

These were messages sent simultaneously by the general manager of his construction company and furniture factory. After taking a look at the design drawings they sent, Shu Jinye's eyes almost went into the screen.

There was an anti-infringement watermark on the design drawing, and Shu Jinye looked at it carefully for a long time.

His expression became increasingly surprised.

This is clearly an ancient-style building and furniture, and it has never been restored from ancient times to the present.

He flipped through yesterday's book design drawings, and after repeated confirmation, he found that the handwriting was from the same person.

He immediately stood up from his seat excitedly and said, "Please ask the teacher for leave for me."

"Today's class is very important... Boss, wait a minute..."

He ignored his classmate's advice and sneaked out of the classroom.

The tiered classroom could accommodate thousands of people, and no one would notice if a student suddenly disappeared.

Shu Jinye rushed back to the company as quickly as possible.

The Shu Group has a great influence in the entire federation, and its industries are spread across every corner of the federation.

Shu Jinye started to build his own company at the age of 10, and now, in just eight years, he has built his own business empire.

The most authoritative antique appraisal and auction company in the entire galaxy is one of his businesses.

He called up from the terminal the holographic projection of the ancient jade hairpin that he had bought at a huge price half a year ago, as well as the ancient text that appeared on the Internet yesterday, and the design drawings that he had not expected to see appear in the past two days.

All of this was like a rope pulling, one link after another. He wanted to know if these were all made by the same person and where these things came from.

Pink Rabbit is waiting in the reception room of the construction company.

He was only the size of a basketball and was currently slumped over the cushions of a chair in the living room.

This time he was very confident that he could help Jiang Chen get the job done perfectly.

"Chairman..." The receptionist at the door bowed and greeted him before the person even came in.

Shu Jinye rushed into the reception room, without even having time to change out of his military uniform or school uniform into formal attire.

He didn't care about anything else and rushed over immediately, fearing that the guests would leave early.

"May I ask who provided the design?"

"Chairman, it's this gentleman."

Pink Rabbit floated up from his seat. He turned around and saw the person coming. Unexpectedly, he had alarmed the famous eldest master of the Shu family.

"Excuse me, are these the designs you provided?"

"It's my master."

"Could you take me to visit him, sir?"

"I'm sorry, Mr. Shu, my master likes quietness and is not willing to see guests."

Shu Jinye's handsome face showed some regret. He had made the trip in vain and still didn't see the real person.

The two chatted for a while, and Shu Jinye roughly knew from Pink Rabbit's description that the owner behind it should be a freelance designer.

"Please keep this design confidential, Mr. Shu."

"good."

Shu Jinye was very interested in this design and would be willing to do it even if he was paid to do it.

The two immediately signed a confidentiality agreement.

"By the way, I'd also like to ask, if your owner has other designs, please cooperate with us as soon as possible. We will definitely give you the best discount."

"Okay, then please start work as soon as possible. I'll be going back now. If you can't find the way, please contact me."

Pink Rabbit returned to the villa and told Jiang Chen the result, and Jiang Chen nodded with satisfaction.

He didn't want to show up in public, so he left all the house-repairing matters to Pink Rabbit.

He sat on the sofa and stared blankly at the kindergarten surveillance camera. At this time, Xiao Zhuang was taking an outdoor class in the afternoon.

The students are learning horse riding in the forest.

Jiang Chen stared at the sturdy trees in the picture, wondering whether there were also golden nanmu trees in the interstellar age.

All the buildings in Dongqi Kingdom were made of wood, especially the royal family and nobles who loved to use golden nanmu. Golden nanmu buildings can be used for hundreds or even thousands of years. At that time, princes and nobles collected nanmu everywhere to build their mansions. In the later period, there was not much golden nanmu left in the entire Dongqi.

Jiang Chen looked at the detailed list of materials handed over by Pink Rabbit, and the price quoted for the entire mansion did not exceed his expectations.

Nowadays, high technology can replicate buildings that are exactly the same as those in ancient times, but the materials used are all polymers. Although they look similar at first glance, the texture and grain are actually different.

Polymeric materials cannot express the simplicity, heaviness and charm of Dongqi architecture.

Jiang Chen rubbed his brows and asked, "Master Steward, is Nanmu still around?"

"Pink Rabbit doesn't know what the Nanmu the master is talking about is."

"It's a hard wood that can grow very wide, and the wood itself has a nice fragrance."

"Oh, is it Dudumu?" Pink Rabbit showed the photo to Jiang Chen.

Jiang Chen recognized it as golden nanmu at a glance. It turned out that this kind of wood was called dudumu in the interstellar world.

"Is there a lot of this kind of wood?"

"Very much, very much."

Jiang Chen breathed a sigh of relief. "Okay, then let's change the building materials to block wood."

"Ah? But no one builds houses with wood anymore."

Jiang Chen chuckled, "No problem, just use it."

“Okay, got it!”

Unfortunately, Pink Rabbit's terminal rang at this time, indicating that the people sent by the engineering team to measure had arrived at the periphery.

"Master, the construction team is here. Are you?"

"Well, I'm going to rest for a while, you can handle the rest."

Xiao Zhuang still had two hours before school was over, so Jiang Chen planned to go back to the underground palace to take a nap.

"OK."

Shu Jinye sneaked into the construction team responsible for surveying that afternoon. Driven by his curiosity, he was eager to meet the mysterious designer.

When we followed the navigation to our destination, we passed the dilapidated shrine along the way, and the members of the engineering team were all amazed at the extremely high artistic value of this place.

However, there was a hint of loneliness and sadness on Shu Jinye's perfectly handsome face.

Seeing these mysterious and dilapidated buildings, the feeling of regret and sadness paralyzed his whole body like an electric current. This was the first time he experienced the heaviness and poignant beauty of history in architecture.

For some reason, he felt a strong sense of guilt in his heart, as if he had been here before and even had a very bad experience there.

The one who came to greet him was Pink Rabbit. Shu Jinye didn't see the owner of this house, and he felt a little disappointed.

Pink Rabbit plans to let the construction team repair the Shinto Road first, so that the building materials can be easily transported after the Shinto Road is repaired.

The entrance to the underground palace in this area is so secretive that even Pink Rabbit doesn't know it. Pink Rabbit only knows that the owner usually sleeps in the basement.

He thought the basement would be quieter.

After explaining the precautions, in order not to disturb Jiang Chen, Pink Rabbit asked the engineering team to be quiet when measuring.

Shu Jinye investigated when he came here, and found out that a construction team had built a quick-built villa here half a year ago, and the owner should be living here.

He took advantage of the chaos to sneak through the fog, and a villa appeared deep in the valley.

In the fog, the villa looked cold and lonely.

Suddenly.

A thin figure appeared in his sight, with waist-length black hair hanging neatly, swaying gently as the body walked, and a faint strange fragrance drifted in the forest.
