Tomb raiding: Start with a proficiency panel

Upon hearing this, Lei Shiyang became somewhat excited, mainly because of the previous few colleagues...

During the introduction,

Zhou Nanbei did not speak.

After briefly organizing his thoughts, Yangshi Lei continued, "Besides that, on this side..."

There's also a study...

.........

Half an hour later, Zhou Nanbei looked at Sheng Sheng Man...

After Sheng Shengman nodded slightly,

Zhou Nanbei then spoke up: "Gentlemen, I've taken a liking to Yangshi Lei's blueprints."

But we can't let everyone's efforts go to waste.

Leave your bank card number later; each person will receive a one million dollar service fee.

The other four,

Although somewhat disappointed, upon hearing about the million-dollar reward for their hard work...

They all cheered up.

They stood up and clasped their hands in thanks: "Thank you, Young Master Zhou."

Zhou Nanbei waved his hand slightly.

He gave Tingnu a look, and Tingnu understood and stepped forward.

He led the group out of the private room.

.........

After they left, Zhou Nanbei looked at Yangshi Lei:

Mr. Lei,

I'm very satisfied with your drawings. How about this?

As the saying goes,

To help someone out completely, I'll give Mr. Lei 100 million as a reward, and Mr. Lei...

Responsible for overseeing the construction of Qiandao Lake,

how?"

Yangshi Lei was slightly taken aback, but quickly spoke:

Young Master Zhou

I don't want the payment.

Zhou Nanbei frowned slightly, but still raised his hand and said, "Then tell me,"

"Whatever you want, as long as it's within my acceptable range, I'll give it to you."

Upon hearing this, the Lei family was overjoyed.

He then quickly clasped his hands in greeting and said, "Young Master Zhou..."

I want to buy from Lei Lei's shop.

Join your ranks.

Zhou Nanbei was somewhat surprised, but after thinking for a moment, he spoke:

Why?

Furthermore, although the Lei family of Yangshi has declined, it is still not as bad as some others.

More than enough compared to those below,

As the saying goes, it's better to be the head of a chicken than the tail of a phoenix.

Speaking of which,

Zhou Nanbei stopped, even though he hadn't finished speaking.

But of course, the Lei family knew about Zhou Nanbei.

The meaning behind the words.

After a brief moment's thought, he spoke up: "Young Master Zhou,"

You are right,

But there's another saying that goes, "A good wind relies on the strength of the wind."

Send me to the clouds.

In my opinion, your potential and the depth of your connections allow you to offer the Lei family a better future.

in addition,

During the late Qing Dynasty, the Lei family suffered a severe blow. I don't want the Lei family to suffer the same fate in the future.

To encounter something like this.

Hearing this, Zhou Nanbei smiled and said, "How about this?"

You can join if you want.

But we'll discuss this matter again after the work overseeing the construction of Qiandao Lake is completed. As for the compensation...

Whether or not we bring the Lei family under our control

I'll give you everything.

Yangshi Lei smiled slightly: "Alright, then, Young Master Zhou..."

"Just wait and see what the Lei family does."

Zhou Nanbei nodded slightly: "Please sit down first."

I have a few more questions for you.

Yang Shilei nodded slightly and sat down, after which Zhou Nanbei spoke:

"The first question,

It's said that architects will supervise the projects they build.

Leave a backup plan.

Is this true?

Upon hearing this, Sheng Sheng Man and Yin Nanfeng exchanged a glance.

The smile in his eyes was even more...

It can't be hidden.

Yangshi Lei even spat out the sip of water he had just taken a sip of.

It took a while to recover.

Yangshi Lei then looked at Zhou Nanbei: "Ahem,

Young Master Zhou

Don't tell anyone that.

Furthermore, what you've described are techniques used only by royal architects; ordinary people...

If there were no enmity,

Why would they use such methods?

After thinking for a moment, he explained, "In ancient times..."

Royal Secrets

They would usually kill to silence witnesses, which is why some architects would spread rumors about leaving themselves a way out.

That was for self-preservation.

Of course, it cannot be ruled out that there are malicious individuals who want to uncover the secrets or steal the treasures from the tomb.

Upon hearing this, Zhou Nanbei raised an eyebrow:

Mr. Lei,

You can't leave me any backup plan with my Thousand Island Lake, can you?

Yangshi Lei quickly clasped his hands in a fist salute:

"Young Master Zhou,"

"You can't say that lightly. My Lei family still wants to join your ranks."

He held up three fingers as he spoke.

"I, Lei Yaoyang, swear that if I leave any hidden dangers in Qiandao Lake..."

Descendants

They will never be reincarnated.

Hearing Yang Shilei's words, Zhou Nanbei walked forward with a smile and pulled his hand down: "It's not that bad."

"It's unlikely."

Yangshi Lei couldn't help but roll his eyes at Zhou Nanbei in his heart.

Why didn't you stop it?

But despite the complaints, Lei Hai never really intended to have a backup plan.

after all,

He genuinely wanted to join Zhou Nanbei's ranks; besides, this was the current era, unlike ancient times.

To leave a backup plan or not

Actually, there shouldn't be any major problems. After all, news of the supervision will spread quickly, especially for such a large project.

Once completed

They are famous throughout the world, so why would they need to leave any tricks up their sleeves?

.........

Closer to home.

Yangshi Lei looked at Zhou Nanbei and said, "It's normal for Young Master Zhou to be worried."

However, I, Lei Yaoyang, guarantee this.

If there's even the slightest problem during the inspection, I, Lei Yaoyang, will kill myself in front of Young Master Zhou.

Zhou Nanbei nodded slightly upon hearing this.

He offered a sweet treat: "Sure, as long as this construction goes well..."

Three to five years later

If I'm satisfied with the inspection, then the Lei family can join my ranks.

Lei Yaoyang was overjoyed:

"Young Master Zhou,"

"Then it's settled."

Zhou Nanbei smiled and said, "A gentleman's word is his bond."

Lei Yaoyang excitedly continued:

"What is done cannot be taken back."

Zhou Nanbei chuckled lightly: "Then I wish Mr. Lei good luck."

However, I have two more questions.

As soon as this word comes out,

Yangshi Lei was on high alert, but then he thought of his future boss...

He had no choice but to speak up: "Well, Young Master Zhou,"

you……

Please feel free to ask.

Zhou Nanbei smiled knowingly: "Alright, I won't tease you anymore."

The reason I asked that question before was...

I've heard about it before, so I'm here to clear up my doubts.

Upon hearing this, Yang Shilei breathed a sigh of relief, and Zhou Nanbei then spoke:

Two questions,

First, how long will it take to complete the construction?

Second, how much funding will be needed during the construction process?

After considering for a moment, Yangshi Lei spoke up: "If we're simply building the central island..."

There are also three islands outside.

Then it should take about two years to complete.

But if all of them were built,

That would take at least five to ten years, after all, regardless of the outer islands,

It's still the octagonal island in the middle.

Their functions are different, for example, islands scattered in the open sea.

If it is built,

It can be used as a tourism project to recoup funds, or even as a base. Thousand Island Lake has numerous islands.

Our main base of operations

Still in the center of Qiandao Lake.

At this point, Yangshi Lei thought for a moment and then said, "As for funding..."

The building materials were all very precious, especially in the construction of the various courtyard houses and attics. Just considering that...

Central island.

Including the surrounding islands, a minimum investment of approximately 10 to 30 billion is needed. As for the entire project,

Ten billion is not too little

Three hundred billion is not too much; it mainly depends on the materials.

Zhou Nanbei thought for a moment and said, "There are many antique buildings in the courtyard houses."

Was it made of Phoebe zhennan wood?

Lei Shijiazhuang looked at Zhou Nanbei helplessly: "You're being too extravagant."

I only dared to think about using Phoebe zhennan wood for the main body, but you want to use it for the whole thing.

Regardless of whether there is that much Phoebe zhennan wood,

Just having it

That funding needs to at least double.

Upon hearing this, Zhou Nanbei snapped his fingers: "That's perfect."

I have some golden nanmu wood in my space.

Forget about those antique buildings for now. Focus on building the other structures first. I've already explained my requirements to you.

You should build those modern villas first.

There are also single-level apartments and the like.

"I'll visit you at Qiandao Lake in a little over a year; there'll be plenty of Phoebe zhennan wood then."
