I changed the world.

After having lunch at the school cafeteria, Liu Haitao was browsing Wuyai.com on his secondhand computer in his dormitory. As a third-year student majoring in Ancient Architecture Engineering Technology in the School of Architecture and Design, Liu Haitao had essentially completed the coursework for his major. According to the school's usual practice, in the fourth year, students mainly focus on completing their graduation thesis and off-campus internships. Of course, if they are noticed by a professor, they can also participate in some projects to gain experience and receive subsidies.

Liu Haitao came from a working-class family in a small, third-tier city in central China. His parents had only managed to scrape together enough money for his first semester's tuition before running out of funds. Therefore, Liu Haitao's tuition primarily came from student loans, a sum he was acutely aware of. Thus, starting in his second semester of freshman year, Liu Haitao began searching for work on the internet to earn some money to supplement his living expenses.

As a result, Liu Haitao even somewhat regretted choosing his major. He now envies his classmates who studied interior design, as they always seem to get jobs directly related to their field. Unlike his major, who would hire students who haven't even graduated yet to do proper ancient building design or restoration work?

Therefore, most of the time, Liu Haitao could only rely on low prices to secure jobs such as interior design.

"Hmm?" Liu Haitao noticed that the website had unusually pushed a task to him, with a reward of 100,000 yuan. Being pushed by the website meant that, according to AI analysis, this task was a good match for him. So he immediately clicked on it, then turned around, waving his arm and calling to his classmate who was still playing on his phone in the next bunk: "Old Li, Old Li, come down quickly, there's an interesting task here!"

"What's wrong? Why are you making such a fuss..." Li Wei from next door said casually, clearly not wanting to climb down.

"A huge order worth 100,000 yuan! If we're late, someone else will snatch it up!"

"Holy crap!" Li Wei jolted awake, leaping out of bed like a nimble monkey. Li Wei's situation was similar to Liu Haitao's; they were not only roommates but also classmates in the same major, so they sometimes collaborated on projects with tight deadlines.

"What's going on?" Li Wei leaned closer to Liu Haitao and carefully examined the task requirements on the screen.

"According to the client, this is a scene from a martial arts game. Because the scene is crucial in the game, the client requires it to be designed entirely realistically. Since it's a virtual scene, on-site measurements are impossible; there are no photos, only sketches and dimensions. They also provided some general design guidelines, such as using high-strength natural stone as the primary material, minimizing the use of wooden components, and referencing traditional Eastern styles as much as possible, and so on..."

After carefully studying the requirements, the two eliminated some outlandish ones. The client also required the designer to sign a confidentiality agreement, guaranteeing that the design drafts and important design elements would not be disclosed to any third party or used in any subsequent designs...

"This is basically just designing a series of buildings for a martial arts sect according to requirements..." Li Wei said to his roommate, frowning. This world also has a large subculture of martial arts and even online novels, so the two were quite familiar with this kind of cultural background.

"Judging from this requirement, this should be the case..." Liu Haitao nodded.

"So? Should we take it?" Liu Haitao had already made up his mind, but the project was too big for him to handle alone, so he needed to ask his roommate for his opinion.

"Take it! It's 100,000 yuan, it'd be stupid not to..." Li Wei slammed his right fist into his left palm. Although the project's requirements were described rather vaguely, and there was a high possibility of getting bogged down in endless revisions, the offer was huge. Even if it took a whole semester or even a year of revisions, as long as the project was ultimately successful, he would definitely make a profit!
