It's so hard, I'm dressed like a group favorite in the 1960s

Chapter 438 Yao Jingshan, Designing a Secret Room

Here, Jiang Junjun and his group drove the car, speeding towards the courtyard at lightning speed. Master Yao, sitting in the car, was a little excited because he was about to see the five-courtyard compound that Jiang Junjun mentioned.

The two children sitting next to him chattered excitedly, full of anticipation for the new environment they were about to encounter. Although the eldest was a boy and already eighteen years old, he was still very lively and could chat with Zhao Peng, Jiang Langtian, and Jiang Langfeng.

When the car slowly stopped and everyone got off, what came into view was the magnificent courtyard.

Master Yao's eyes widened, and he secretly marveled: This courtyard is really huge! As he followed Jiang Junjun inside, he carefully observed the surroundings. He saw that many places looked dilapidated, with peeling walls, damaged doors and windows, and even holes in the roofs of some rooms.

Master Yao couldn't help but shake his head with heartache. These once exquisite buildings have now become like this.

However, amidst this sigh of admiration, Master Yao also once again deeply realized the wealth of Jiang Junjun's family. Such a large courtyard must have been very expensive, and yet Jiang Junjun had no hesitation in purchasing it, which clearly showed the depth of his family's wealth. With this in mind, Master Yao couldn't help but attach even greater importance to this renovation project.

At this time, Jiang Junjun turned around and said to Master Yao, "As you can see, there are so many areas in this yard that need repairing, so I'm sorry to bother you with your attention." She then began to elaborate on her ideas for renovating each area. Master Yao listened attentively, nodding in agreement from time to time.

Suddenly, Jiang Junjun mentioned that she wanted to install a floor heating system to ensure warmth and comfort indoors in winter.

Upon hearing this, Master Yao immediately became interested: "Your idea of floor heating is very good. This way, we will be much warmer in winter. In fact, there were similar heating methods in the past, such as warm walls.

"Well, I've never tried to build these things in this courtyard before. But luckily, there's an old hand among us who's good at building kangs. Let's have him come over and work on it together. It shouldn't be a problem." At this point, Master Yao showed a confident smile on his face.

Master Yao's son opened his eyes wide, curiously watching the craftsmanship his father was demonstrating, and an unprecedented feeling of love surged in his heart.

You know, before this, he had only been doing some simple carpentry work with his father, such as making daily objects such as beds, benches and tables.

At that time, Yao Jingshan didn't have any strong feelings about these jobs, let alone a passion for them. However, now, in this old house full of traces of time, everything has become completely different.

Every brick, tile, blade of grass, and tree here seemed to exude a unique charm that deeply captivated Yao Jingshan. He was particularly fond of the antique atmosphere, which seemed to allow him to travel through time and space and touch the memories and stories of the past.

In contrast, Master Yao's young daughter seemed somewhat naive. At only nine years old, she was simply captivated by the expansive courtyard, constantly muttering, "Wow, this courtyard is so huge!"

Apart from this, the innocent little girl didn't show much interest in other things. But she was particularly fond of her elder sister Jiang Junjun. From the moment she stepped into the courtyard, she followed Jiang Junjun closely like a cheerful little bird.

In her little world, Jiang Junjun was omnipotent—not only could she skillfully handle the erratic old Mrs. Xia, she also possessed miraculous medical skills and cured her grandmother's illness. Of course, the little girl didn't realize at the time that this feeling was actually called admiration.

Finally, Jiang Junjun said politely: "From now on, I'll trouble you, Master Yao. If you encounter any problems or have new ideas, we can communicate at any time.

After all, the most important thing is to focus on practicality and convenience. Don't add a lot of extra burden to yourself by adding such a thing, and don't make it too complicated to use. "

At this moment, fragments of memories from his previous life flashed through Jiang Junjun's mind.

Her home renovation should have been a joyous occasion, but it was marred by poor design. This was particularly true with regard to geothermal heating, which, with few successful examples to draw upon at the time, failed after a short period of use. This not only cost the family a fortune, but, worse still, prevented them from truly enjoying the comfort and warmth it provided.

That was a complete failure.

Recalling that experience, Jiang Junjun secretly made up her mind not to repeat the same mistake this time.

This courtyard is quite large, and construction would be a massive undertaking once it begins. Any errors would inevitably require significant manpower, material resources, and time to rectify. Therefore, every step must be carefully considered to ensure that nothing goes wrong.

Hearing Jiang Junjun's concerns, Master Yao patted his chest confidently and assured her: "Don't worry, girl! With me here, nothing will go wrong." Seeing Master Yao so confident, Jiang Junjun breathed a sigh of relief and handed him the drawing in his hand that detailed the layout of the yard.

Then, Jiang Junjun pointed to a location on the drawing and said, "Master Yao, I hope to design a secret door here to create a hidden space.

This space is primarily for storage. I'll personally handle the complex and intricate design of the mechanisms. However, I'll still need your attention for the initial excavation and construction. Jiang Junjun had planned to build a small warehouse hidden away.

After all, this courtyard is where everyone will live together in the future. With so many people living there, there will definitely be a lot of supplies needed at home. If everything depends on taking things out of the space, it will inevitably attract attention. Therefore, such a secret storage space is particularly important.

There still needs to be a place like this to help cover it up.

"Let's design one for every room!" Grandpa Jiang stood aside and suggested thoughtfully: Let every house have a secret room.

After all, their family is now very different from the past. The people they come into contact with are all kinds of people, some of whom are narrow-minded and jealous. Therefore, everyone in the family urgently needs a private place to deal with possible emergencies.

Just like the mountain village where they live, even in such a complex and changing environment, it can still maintain a unique tranquility and peace. And isn't this tranquility due to the unity of the villagers and the cellars hidden underground in every household?
