A small peasant girl's home is bare, but I have a spiritual space

How could she be so talented that she could not only make such fragrant tea, but also draw such breathtaking house designs?

Is there anything she can't do? I guess nothing can stump her if she wants to.

Master Yao couldn't help but sigh that such a talented person would probably be hard to come by once in a thousand years!

Master Yao was convinced of his defeat by such a man and immediately decided to become his apprentice.

He looked at Lin Yiran with a burning gaze, his eyes full of courage and determination to never back down. "Miss Lin, I want to take you as my master."

Lin Yiran was completely confused by Master Yao's actions. Wasn't he looking at the blueprint? How did he suddenly become a disciple? Was the change so fast?

Lin Yiran didn't react immediately and was still in a daze. The third brother Lin beside him quickly tugged at his little sister's sleeve and said, "Ran'er, Master Yao is still waiting for your reply."

"Oh, okay." Lin Yiran came to her senses and realized what she had said that could be easily misunderstood. But it was too late.

"Ms. Lin, you really agreed. That's great. Thank you," Master Yao was so excited that he almost fainted.

"Master, please accept my disciple's greeting." Master Yao knelt on the ground and kowtowed three times to Lin Yiran.

"No, no, Master Yao, please get up quickly. I can't bear this! Besides, I have nothing to teach you!

I can only draw a few blueprints, it's no big deal." Lin Yiran didn't know what to do with this sudden appearance of an apprentice.

"Master, you must never underestimate yourself. There are many things about you that are worth learning from. If you are willing to give me some pointers, it will benefit me for the rest of my life." Master Yao said solemnly.

Third Brother Lin didn't expect that the seemingly honest Master Yao would take advantage of his younger sister's distraction. It seems that he is not as honest as he thought.

Chen Liang was frightened the moment his master wanted to take Miss Lin as his disciple, and he has not yet come to his senses.

Lin Yiran looked at this old man who was older than her father with mixed feelings. She admired Master Yao's courage and his tireless spirit of learning.

But she didn't know where to start. She herself was still a novice. How could she teach a professional architect who had already made a name for himself in the construction industry?

Doesn't this make things difficult for her?

Lin Yiran still decided to persuade him, "Master Yao, you really think too highly of me. I have no ability to teach you at all. I can only draw a few simple blueprints. I know nothing about architecture!

Don't make a hasty decision. Let's work together to build our house. If you still think I'm suitable to be your master, it won't be too late to become your disciple."

Master Yao was about to say something when Chen Liang pulled him back and said, "Master, Miss Lin is right. Let's build the house first." Chen Liang winked at Master Yao, who immediately understood.

"Okay, then I'll listen to Master. No, I'll listen to Miss Lin." Master Yao also felt that he was a bit rash and was afraid that he had scared the girl.

Lin Yiran smiled and said, "Let's discuss if there's anything unclear about the drawing."

"There are a few questions I don't quite understand right now," Master Yao quickly took the blueprint to Lin Yiran and pointed them out.

"This is the corridor. When it rains or snows, you can walk along this corridor without getting your clothes wet or your shoes dirty."

"That's great! I've been building houses for decades and I've never thought about this. Miss Lin is really smart!"

"Then why should this wall be hollow? And what are the functions of these holes inside?" Master Yao asked without any hesitation.

"Winter in the north is very cold, so I connected the cooking stove to the wall. The heat generated by the fire during cooking can pass through the hollow wall to raise the indoor temperature.

This is not enough. If the wall is completely hollow, the heat will rush out immediately. The heat stays inside the wall for a very short time, so it gets hot quickly, but also cools down quickly.

In order to keep the wall warm, we have to keep adding firewood to the stove, which wastes both manpower and firewood.

The holes shown in my picture are meant to create a certain barrier for the heat, allowing it to dissipate more slowly. These holes can be built into various forms, such as vertical holes and horizontal holes.

The longer the hot flue gas stays in the wall, the longer the heat storage time will be. This will not only increase the thermal efficiency but also dissipate heat evenly. This will also save a lot of firewood.”

"The principles of this earthen kang and the fire wall are actually the same." Lin Yiran said, pointing to a place connected to the stove on the drawing.

The more Master Yao listened, the more shocked and excited he became. He roughly understood the principles of the fire wall and earthen kang that Lin Yiran talked about.

But how did Miss Lin come up with this wild idea? Is the structure of her brain different from that of ordinary people?

If Miss Lin didn't explain it to him, he wouldn't be able to figure it out even if he racked his brains just by looking at the design.

At this time, he became more determined to make Lin Yiran his master.

He had a premonition that once this kang and fire wall came out, it would definitely cause a sensation in the entire Daxuan Kingdom and even in the neighboring countries. Then, wouldn't he, who mastered the production technology, become a hot commodity?

Those ungrateful disciples of his who set up their own schools must be regretting their actions now. And those colleagues who once excluded him would be so angry that they would become paralyzed when they find out about this.

As he thought about it, he couldn't help but burst into laughter.

Chen Liang and the Lin brothers and sisters looked at him in confusion, "Master/Master Yao, are you okay?"

"I... I'm fine. I just think Miss Lin's design is too exquisite. She is simply a genius and a favorite of God." Master Yao said with some guilt.

"Yeah, that's what I think. Miss Lin is indeed open-minded. She has a very smart mind." Chen Liang nodded in agreement.

As Third Brother Lin listened to the praises from the master and the two pairs of young sisters, the corners of his mouth slowly rose and his eyes were filled with smiles.

They have good vision. Isn't his little sister a favorite of God?

Seeing that the others were talking more and more outrageous, Lin Yiran quickly changed the subject, "Master Yao, I drew this design a while ago. Now that we have decided to build a three-courtyard house, this design needs to be revised."

Master Yao replied: "It does need some changes, but the difference between the second and third courtyards is not that big."

Master Yao helped to make some simple changes on the drawing.

"This is fine. No major changes are needed." Master Yao showed the revised drawings to Lin Yiran and Lin Sange.

The two thought it was pretty good and nodded with satisfaction, "Master Yao, let's build it according to this drawing."

"Master Yao, I have another idea, but I'm afraid it will be difficult to implement and carry out." Lin Yiran looked embarrassed.

Master Yao's curiosity has been completely aroused. Miss Lin's innovative ability is so strong that he probably has some new and novel idea that he has never heard of or seen before.

At this moment, his stubborn temper came up again. The more difficult a thing was to accomplish, the more he wanted to try and challenge it.

"Ms. Lin, please tell me quickly. If you don't tell me, how do you know that I can't complete it?" Master Yao said anxiously.
