Chapter 63 Show your affection

"I plan to set up a home decoration team and contract out projects." Lu Chen expressed his idea.

He has been thinking about this these days. If the home decoration team can get the project, it will definitely make money, and he can also bring his brothers to work together.

"I used to work with a home decorator for a while and I know some tricks. What do you think?" Lu Chen asked.

There was another reason why he considered the home decoration team. Eggy's father and brothers were both engaged in home decoration, and Lin Xianghong had a cousin who ran a building materials store, so he also had some connections.

"Home decoration is good, but why not set up a construction team? This is more profitable." Lei Ming said with some excitement in his eyes.

"The construction team needs knowledgeable masters. We don't know anything about it." Lu Chen told the truth. He did consider a construction team, but he knew nothing about architectural design. If this thing was not done well, it could cost lives.

“I understand!”

Lei Ming was so excited that he started dancing. This is what he does.

Everyone looked at him suspiciously, not believing that he was an architect. Lin Xianghong asked suspiciously, "Aren't you a high school student? When did you study architecture?"

"You know my last name is Lei, right?" Lei Ming asked excitedly.

Everyone rolled their eyes. Isn't this nonsense? "You know the Forbidden City and the Old Summer Palace, right? And Prince Gong's Mansion and the Summer Palace, you know all of these, right?" Lei Ming listed several famous places of interest in Beijing.

Everyone rolled their eyes again. Even elementary school students knew this.

"Stop talking nonsense, what does this have to do with you?" Lin Xianghong became impatient and said angrily.

Lei Ming was not angry, and said with a smile: "Of course it is related. The historical sites I mentioned were all designed and built by Yangshi Lei, the ancestor of my Lei family. Yangshi Lei contracted the architectural design of the royal family for more than 200 years. It's a pity that it fell into decline after liberation. Alas."

"Is it true or false? Are your ancestors so powerful?" Lin Xianghong became even more suspicious.

Lei Ming's family was so poor that he couldn't even afford to go to school. If his ancestors were really that great, a lean camel is bigger than a horse, and a rotten boat can still have three pounds of nails. At least they should have left some wealth, right? "Of course it's true. Yangshi Lei is really my ancestor. I still have a lot of design drawings at home. When I was a child, I looked at those drawings. They were all collected by my grandfather from everywhere, and they are still in my house now."

Lei Ming felt a little guilty. In fact, his family was far away from Yangshi Lei and could only be considered a collateral branch. His ancestor was a craftsman and worked with Yangshi Lei in the capital. Later, the Lei family fell into misfortune, and his great-grandfather returned to his hometown. He heard that the Lei family's drawings were scattered everywhere, so he asked his grandfather to spend all the family wealth to collect a batch of drawings, saying that the Lei family's treasures must not be lost outside. He also asked him to study hard and strive to carry forward the Lei family's craftsmanship.

Perhaps it was the spirit of the Lei family's ancestor. He had been interested in those blueprints since he was a child. To outsiders, they looked like incomprehensible books, but he was self-taught and could understand the blueprints accurately. Many houses built by families in the village were designed by him.

"Yangshi Lei is indeed the royal designer, and the Lei family has prospered for more than two hundred years, but you are definitely not a direct descendant of the Lei family." Jiang Hanyan said.

She was a museum guide in her previous life and knew some history. Yangshi Lei was truly amazing and could be compared with Master Lu Ban. Unfortunately, none of his descendants were promising and all lived a miserable life.

She still remembered that the only direct descendant of the Lei family was in Su Province, not in Gan Province, and Lei Ming was obviously not a direct descendant.

Lei Ming's face flushed, and he said ashamedly, "I am indeed not a direct descendant. My ancestor was a craftsman who worked with Yangshi Lei. But those drawings are real. My grandfather spent all his money to buy them back. Unfortunately, he only got a small half of them, and many of them are lost outside."

"It doesn't matter whether you are a direct or collateral relative, as long as you have real skills. But you have only looked at the blueprints and have never put them into practice. It is not enough to build a house based on theory alone." Jiang Hanyan said very directly.

All those architectural design masters were trained at the grassroots level. Ms. Lin, a famous woman in the Republic of China, was a frail woman who climbed up tall buildings herself to survey data. It would be useless to just look at the blueprints.

Lu Chen nodded and said in a deep voice: "That's right, it's not enough for you to just read the drawings."

Lei Ming said anxiously, "I have practiced it. The houses in our village were all designed and built by me. Those houses are warm in winter and cool in summer, with good lighting and ventilation, and no water accumulation. They are very comfortable to live in."

In other words, the villagers were too poor to buy good materials, otherwise he would definitely be able to build a building like the Cheng Family Compound. When he was a child, his grandfather took him to see the Cheng Family Compound, which his great-grandfather had participated in its construction. It had the same layout as the Forbidden City and was so spectacular. If he could build such a house in his lifetime, he would die without regrets.

[Cheng Family Courtyard is located in Xinjian County, JX Province, also known as Wangshan Tuku. It is as magnificent as Qiao Family Courtyard, but unfortunately not many people know about it.]

"Can you really build a house?" Lu Chen asked.

"It's absolutely true. My dream is to build high-rise buildings and become a master like Yangshi Lei. The major I applied for in university is architectural design." Lei Ming raised his hand and swore.

"I'll visit your house tomorrow."

Lu Chen made a decision. If Lei Ming had real skills, he would start a construction team. This would make more money than home improvement and there would be more opportunities. He added, "You go to Xianghong's house to sleep tonight, and I'll go to your house tomorrow."

"OK."

Lei Ming is confident that the house he designed will definitely satisfy Brother Chen.

"Why not go in the afternoon?" He Dan asked stupidly. The sun hadn't set yet, so there was still time.

"Something happened!"

Lu Chen stood up. He wanted to accompany Jiang Hanyan back to her parents' home to have a big fight.

"Let's go!"

Lu Chen greeted Jiang Hanyan, took the gloves and went out, the earlier he went, the earlier he came back.

There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!

“Here it comes!”

Jiang Hanyan put on thick clothes, wrapped herself up like a dumpling, and trotted out. Of course, she did not forget to bring the medical examination report.

"You guys stay at home and look after Doudou." Lu Chen ordered.

"Brother Chen, don't worry!"

Lin Xianghong and Lei Ming responded in unison. He Dan and Dou Dou went to watch TV, cartoons. They had similar interests and hobbies and had a very good relationship.

Lu Chen started the car, Jiang Hanyan sat in, put her arms around his waist as usual, and put her hands into his clothes. Both of them were used to these little actions and didn't think there was anything wrong.

"Brother Chen and sister-in-law are so loving." Lei Ming sighed, but he was not envious. He was not interested in love, he just wanted to build a house.

"nonsense!"

Lin Xiang's eyes turned red and he went into the house to watch TV.

He didn't like Lei Ming, because as soon as this guy came, he took away a lot of Brother Chen's attention. Lin Xianghong felt jealous and disliked Lei Ming very much.

Lei Ming smiled and went into the house.

Lu Chen rode fast and steadily and soon arrived at Jiang's house. Jiang's father and mother were at home. Jiang's father had been in no mood to slaughter pigs these days. The more he looked at Jiang Tianbao, the more he felt that he was not a member of the Jiang family, and the thorn in his heart grew deeper and deeper.

Hearing the sound of a motorcycle, Jiang's father ran out anxiously, "What's the result?"

“Yes!”

Jiang Hanyan took out the medical examination report, stuffed it to Jiang's father, and sneered sarcastically.

On the third day, I started to have a fever, my bones ached all over, I had chills and fever, and a splitting headache. My babies, every day is tougher. This virus is really uncomfortable. Come on.
