Restart the Disaster of Another World

Since the factory began to be built, Jing Yao has been supervising the construction site every day. When he is not there, Wen Yu will go. This is mainly to prevent the workers from not understanding the drawings. If there are any problems, they can be raised at any time so that they can be solved as soon as possible.

Foreman Cheng went to see Jian Jingyao's house. With Wen Yu's suggestions and Foreman Cheng's improvements, the final house was very unique but not out of the ordinary. It just had many more innovations in the architecture that was more in line with the aesthetic of that era.

Jing Yao was very satisfied, and Wen Qun liked it too. The location was chosen to be a certain distance away from the village and the current home. It was closer to other families in the village. This was the result of their discussion. There would be no lack of privacy, and everyone was close by to take care of each other if they needed help.

With Wen Yu's help, Jing Yao began to customize various tools and equipment needed for canning. He also found a lot of information, disassembled all the equipment that might be used in the future, and found different blacksmith shops to make them.

A lot of furniture was also ordered. This was made by Uncle Ding He, a carpenter in the village. In addition to the needs of the factory, there were also some for his and Wen Qun's new home. The order volume was so large that Uncle Ding He couldn't handle it at all, so he had to ask Jing Yao to divide a lot of it, otherwise it would not be delivered on the time Jing Yao needed.

Uncle Dinghe is only responsible for the public space furniture on the first floor of Jing Yao's house, all of which are characteristics of this era. The second floor is more modern, and there are even some beds, sofas and other things in his space, which were not convenient to take out and put on the table before, but can be used in the new house.

Jing Yao also asked Ding Heshu to exchange a lot of large beams. This kind of wood cannot be cut casually. It requires experienced carpenters to find wood of suitable year and thickness. After going through multiple processes such as processing, soaking, and drying, it can be used after a few years. Such beams can be used for decades or even hundreds of years without rotting.

Jing Yao needed to build too many houses and a lot of beams, which emptied Ding Heshu's stock. He also asked a few friends to get the amount Jing Yao wanted. For this, Jing Yao specially brought wine to his house to thank him.

Things were piling up at the same time, and Jing Yao and Wen Qun were busy all day long. Villagers often strolled around to watch the houses being built. Unconsciously, everyone had accepted the fact that a factory was going to be built here. Although there were people who made sarcastic remarks, as everyone talked about it more, many people who had no ideas began to get excited after seeing the houses being built.

"Qun Qun, come and take a look at this." Jing Yao took out a blueprint and showed it to Wen Qun.

Wen Qun stopped his hand from counting, picked it up and looked at it, and asked in confusion: "Ayao, what is this?"

Jing Yao smiled evilly and said, "Guess."

Wen Qun thought for a moment and shook his head, "I can't guess."

Jing Yao did not continue to keep the secret and said directly: "This is the work clothes I prepared for the factory employees."

"Work clothes." Wen Qun was puzzled. There was no such concept here.

"Yes, every employee in the factory must wear work clothes when they go to work. This will not only make them obedient, but also increase their sense of belonging and cohesion." Jing Yao explained. He saw these in a book. Modern people really know how to have fun, so he learned from it.

Wen Qun heard vaguely and didn't understand anything: "Ayao, I don't understand."

Jing Yao thought for a moment and said, "To put it simply, if we wear the same clothes at work, we won't be divided into different classes. Unless the clothes are different, we are all members of one big family and we will be united and harmonious with each other."

Wen Qun nodded: "Is that so? Ayao, you are really amazing."

Jing Yao shamelessly accepted the compliment and said, "Pick one."

Wen Qun looked at the several sets of modern work clothes in the painting. They were all of similar styles, differing only in some details. However, they were all a combination of tops and trousers, somewhat similar to the current shorts.

"Ayao, do Nvzi and Shuang'er have to dress like this too?" Wen Qun asked.

Jing Yao was silent. How could he forget that in this world, not all genders can wear the same clothes and everyone can accept it? It seems that things need to be changed.

He thought about it and changed the clothes of the woman and Shuang'er to look like modern smocks, and painted a few flowers and bows on them, and put pants underneath, so as to distinguish them from the men.

Wen Qun was satisfied and said, "That's it, this one looks good."

Jing Yao nodded and said, "I'll find a time to go to the county town and ask Xiulou to make it for me."

Wen Qun also nodded in agreement.

Time flies, and the Lantern Festival is here in a blink of an eye. Due to construction work, this year's Lantern Festival only had one day off to allow the workers to go home and reunite with their families.

After seeing off the workers and confirming the safety of the construction site, Jing Yao and Wen Qun can go back and have a rest without having to rush around every day.

"I can finally have a good rest." Jing Yao stretched lazily as he walked.

Wen Qun looked at him and teased, "Ah Yao, are you going to sleep in again tomorrow?"

"Uh." Although this was his thought, Wen Qun still felt a little embarrassed to say it out loud, as if he was the older one.

"Qun Qun, what do you like most?" Jing Yao decided to develop some of Wen Qun's interests and hobbies, so that he would understand that sleeping in is a very normal thing. After all, everyone has their own interests and hobbies.

"What do you like?" Wen Qun didn't understand why he asked that.

"Yes, do whatever you like and what you want to do." Jing Yao looked at him encouragingly.

Wen Qun saw Jing Yao looking at him seriously, as if he was the only light in his eyes. Wen Qun's expression softened immediately: "I like Ah Yao."

Jing Yao was stunned, but then he jumped up with joy, picked up Wen Qun and spun around: "Qun Qun, I like you too."

Wen Qun, who was picked up by Jing Yao, hugged Jing Yao's neck, looked at the rapidly changing scene in front of him, closed his eyes and leaned on his shoulder, with a happy smile on his face.

After the nonsense, Jing Yao put Wen Qun down and looked at him seriously, saying, "Okay, I'm not talking about this. I'm talking about hobbies, things you like, such as cooking, embroidery, studying recipes, watching seeds sprout, and growing vegetables every day. Do you like these? Is this what you want?"

Wen Qun was silent. He didn't understand why Jing Yao asked this, but he knew he couldn't answer this question. Did he like it? Maybe! Apart from this, he didn't seem to know what he should do. After all, his current life was a happiness that many people dared not even think about.

Jing Yao rubbed his head and said with a smile: "You don't have to answer right away, you can think about it slowly, or slowly like something, the future is long, I just want you to keep your curiosity."

Jing Yao once read a sentence that said that the moment you lose your curiosity, you die. He had lost it before and lived like a zombie. Now that Wen Qun has found a new direction in life, he hopes that Wen Qun can be like him, have his curiosity, explore and love the world, instead of being forced to move forward by him.

Wen Qun nodded in agreement. He was thinking about something, but he didn't know what he was thinking.

Jing Yao pulled his hand to bring him back to his senses: "Let's go to the Lantern Festival tomorrow night. My brother-in-law said you've never been there, and coincidentally I've never been there either."

When Wen Qun heard about the Lantern Festival, his eyes lit up, and he stopped thinking about it and nodded happily: "We will go. In the past, our mother didn't allow us to go, only my brother could go."

Seeing his smile reappear, Jing Yao breathed a sigh of relief and secretly cursed himself for expressing his emotions in vain, thinking that he had nothing better to do and made others unhappy.

"Okay, then the two of us will go tomorrow, without my brother-in-law." Jing Yao pretended to hold a grudge.

Wen Qun smiled and covered his mouth when he heard this, nodding: "Okay."

The two of them walked slowly towards Wen Qun's house, and Jing Yao was still talking to Wen Qun about his follow-up plans.

"I bought some of the large wasteland in the south, as well as that hill. I plan to hire people to reclaim it and plant sugar beets. And there in the west, I've taken a fancy to a few mountains and want to take a closer look."

"Buy so much?" Wen Qun was surprised.

"Yeah, not much, and not now. Let's wait until our factory is built and profitable! Then we can start the follow-up plans, which will take a long time." Jing Yao wanted to build a business empire.

"That's good, A Yao. Actually, my father secretly asked me if you were short of money." Wen Qun observed Jing Yao's expression before asking cautiously.

Jing Yao was stunned: "My father-in-law is worried that I am short of money."

Seeing that he was not angry, Wen Qun told Jing Yao what Wen Xing had said to him: "You bought the land, you are still building a house, you need to hire workers, and you need to prepare for your marriage. No one helps you. Your father is afraid that you will have difficulties but he doesn't tell you. You handle it all by yourself."

What Jing Yao didn't know was that after proposing marriage, he stopped hunting and prepared to work hard on the farm. Wen Xing thought he was a responsible man. But this man couldn't become a fat man in one bite, and he was afraid that he would take too big a step and fall into a pit.

Hearing this, Jing Yao felt that he had done a lot of things recently and spent a lot of money. But he had space, and the villagers helped him with everything, so he didn't feel any difficulty.

Because he had a lot of money in his space, he didn't calculate how much he had spent or how long it would take to earn it all back. He didn't realize that his actions were very big and many people were staring at him.

It seems that I need to be more careful in the future and make the source of my money more legitimate so as not to attract the attention of those with ulterior motives.

"Don't worry about that, Qun Qun, have you forgotten what I have?" Jing Yao took out a candy and handed it to him.

Wen Qun looked at the candy in front of him and said happily, "You mean that one."

Jing Yao nodded: "Don't worry."

"I will tell my father not to worry about money." Wen Qun felt at ease when he thought of that magical place.

When Wen Qun was sent home, his father-in-law was watching his brother-in-law practicing calligraphy. Wen Qun went back to rest directly, but Jing Yao was caught red-handed.

"Although you won't take the imperial examination, you will have to deal with people when doing business in the future. How can you say you are my son-in-law when writing contracts? Your handwriting is so ugly. How can you say you are my son-in-law?" After Wen Xing taught Jing Yao a lesson, he turned around and began to teach Wen Yu a lesson, "You are so impatient. You will be in trouble soon. You can't be so impatient. You must know that there are people who are better than you. There are so many people in the academy. No one can surpass you. You must be modest and calm to achieve long-term success."

In the end, Jing and Wen Yu each wrote three large characters, and they were allowed to go only after Wen Xing checked them one by one.

After Wen Xing walked away, Jing Yao and Wen Yu put down their pens. They both disliked each other, their eyes were full of anger, and they were both very depressed.

Wen Yu had been practicing calligraphy for the entire afternoon and was about to finish, but when Jing Yao arrived, not only was he scolded, but he also had to practice three more pieces, and his hands were sore from writing.

Jing Yao was in trouble because his father-in-law was going to graduate in the second half of the year. He had to practice calligraphy every day. He was not going to take the imperial examination, and he was not a scholar. What was the point of practicing calligraphy? His father-in-law liked to force him to write, so he had to compromise.

The two looked at each other for a while, and finally looked away. Jing Yao said, "I'm going to take Qun Qun to see the Lantern Festival tomorrow."

Wen Yu didn't like that kind of occasion. He had been invited by his classmates twice before, but each time they were just poetry and learning competitions without any new ideas, so he never went again. However, seeing the two of them going, he felt uneasy: "I'll go with you."

"No, brother. We are a couple and I can't bear to see you alone." Jing Yao refused.

Wen Yu narrowed his eyes and said, "Since I'm alone, I can go find someone suitable. Don't you always say that?"

Jing Yao begged for mercy: "No, brother, I was wrong, I won't dare to do it again."

Wen Yu snorted and turned back to his room.

Jing Yao touched his nose and went home.
