Zhao Chenxing is a carpenter and the most ordinary member of the 12 million migrant workers in Yanjing.
In Zhao Chenxing's rural hometown, there are a pair of parents, a grandfather, and a bunch of uncles and brothers.
Three generations of his family have made a living by carpentry, so the books that Zhao Chenxing began to read were the classic Luban Jing by craftsmen.
Like those traditional poor craftsman families, Zhao Chenxing went to work in the city after graduating from high school because of his ancestral craftsmanship.
At first, he wanted to open a woodworking shop in a big city relying on the century-old craftsmanship passed down by his family.
But when he excitedly came to Yanjing, a city with a population of 35 million, armed with his dream and the honorary certificate of an eighth-level carpenter, he was disappointed to find that he was too naive.
Modern carpentry no longer uses traditional tools such as Luban rulers, ink fountains, and planes to measure the construction stage.
Carpenters in the city use "CAD" for drawing, laser pointers and theodolite for measurement, and electric drills and planers for construction.
Even if traditional tools are occasionally useful, they are only secondary aids.
Because of these reasons, Zhao Chenxing, who had just come to Yanjing, had to put aside his ideals and follow the carpenters whose skills were far inferior to his own, learning bit by bit from computers, electric drills, and working as a small worker.
Hard work pays off.
After two years of hard work, Zhao Chenxing can finally use those drawing software and electronic tools proficiently.
The money he competes for is a little more than before.
But even so, Zhao Chenxing is still floating, and he does not have his own carpentry shop or engineering team.
As Liu Chengcheng said, his job is not fixed and he runs around looking for work every day.
Even if he gets a job, he often gets angry because of unpaid wages.
Although there are occasionally warm-hearted patrons like Mr.
Zhou and Boss Liu to take care of him, more often than not, the boss and foremen are playing the role of "juicers".
Zhao Chenxing is just one of twelve million oranges in their eyes.
After a blind date in the morning and going home in the afternoon, Zhao Chenxing, a dried orange, dragged his heavy steps into his house that was like a can shell.
Then, just like every failed blind date, he pulled out a suitcase from under his heavy iron bed.
In that box was his most important thing.
Looking at the large suitcase that had been following him for a long time and was already covered with dust, Zhao Chenxing fell into deep thought.
Although he hesitated, he gently opened the zipper on the box.
After a slight dusting, Zhao Chenxing opened the box.
He moved a few pieces of clothing prepared for winter in the box, and soon the contents at the bottom of the box were revealed.
At the bottom of the box, there is a faded family photo Under the family portrait is a hand-copied ancient book bound in thread.
On the ancient book, there are three large black characters written in pine ink called Lu Ban Jing.
The title of this book also has a line of eye-catching small characters written in cinnabar.
The small characters read "Ming Xizong palace collection and annotations".
The cinnabar-red handwriting was neat and elegant, as if it were written by a girl.
In addition, there is a small stamp directly under the line of small cinnabar characters.
There are only two numbers "nineteen" in the stamp that are extremely simple and can be understood by even a fool.
Zhao Chenxing was very familiar with this book.
It is a "textbook" left by the Zhao family, and Zhao Chenxing has read it since he was a child.
All his skills stem from this.
The healing chair for Boss Zhou was made using this secret technique.
In fact, some things like the Luban Classic are sold in the world.
After Zhao Chenxing entered the capital, he also visited the used bookstalls in Panjiayuan and saw many kinds of Luban Classics with different engravings, ages, and bindings.
Through comparison, Zhao Chenxing found that his own "Palace Collection" had many, big, and bizarre differences from those books on the market.
First of all, there is a lot more space in Zhao's Luban Jing In terms of word count, it actually has two-thirds more content than the popular ones in the world.
The extra part is divided into three eyes.
Among these three categories, the chapter of carpentry and civil construction is called construction method.
The chapter that creates a link between weapons and mechanisms is called mechanism technique.
The last kind of mysterious and mysterious chapter, which uses craftsman's talisman to curse, harm people and make money, break evil spirits and eliminate disasters, is called Luban Shu.

These skills are collectively referred to as the Three Skills of Craftsmanship by the Zhao family’s grandfathers.
Secondly, in addition to the main text, the book in Zhao Chenxing’s hand also has one of the most puzzling aspects.
That is, its last chapter was torn apart from the entire page, and the specific content was completely missing.
However, although the content is gone, the table of contents at the beginning of the book is still there.
With the help of the catalog, Zhao Chenxing knew at a very early age that the last missing part of the book should be called "Broken Wood to Refining a Puppet".
Looking at the book with a missing chapter in front of him and the photos on it, Zhao Chenxing sighed.
Then, he picked up the faded photo on the top of the book.
In this photo, there are several people he is familiar with sitting there There are Zhao Chenxing’s parents, cousins, uncles, and grandfather.
Looking at the grandfather in the middle of the photo who had taken great care of him since childhood, Zhao Chenxing couldn't help but feel emotional about the scene.
He suddenly recalled that during the Chinese New Year this year, his mother once told Zhao Chenxing in tears that his grandfather's health was getting worse day by day after he was gored by Erhua in the pig pen years ago.
Now, his biggest wish is to see Zhao Chenxing get married.
Because in Lao Zhao's family, he is the only grandson who still has no place to live.
Therefore, Zhao Chenxing promised his parents that he would bring back a beautiful daughter-in-law for the Chinese New Year next year.
Let's eat Erhua's meat together, avenge grandpa, make the old man happy, and embrace his grandson.
But now Zhao Chenxing went on thirty-eight blind dates, all of which were failures.
The Mid-Autumn Festival has passed before his eyes, but his other half is still in his dream and on the plane.
Zhao Chenxing was helpless about this.
The photo at the bottom of the box made Zhao Chenxing let out a long sigh.
But just when he wanted to say something touching, or some heroic words to cheer him up, Zhao Chenxing's cell phone rang at an inappropriate time.
As the phone was connected, there was a burst of anxious shouts on the other side of the phone.
On the other side of the phone was a familiar co-worker of Zhao Chenxing's.
The man came up and yelled at Zhao Chenxing: "Morning Star, come quickly, we are running out of wages.
The project we did yesterday failed to pass the inspection and the brothers are making trouble at the construction site."
What the coworker said was related to his wife, which made Zhao Chenxing's eyes widen in shock.
Then, he immediately put down the photo in his hand, left the cigarette and ran out of the room, riding an electric bike and headed straight for yesterday's project.
Zhao Chenxing's project yesterday was to renovate a small villa next to the Fourth Ring Road.
The scale of the project is small, but the construction period is short, which invisibly increases the difficulty of construction.
But even so, Zhao Chenxing and his team still worked hard at night and completed all tasks within ten days.
Last night, the foreman "Liu Mazi" was very satisfied when he inspected the work.
He continued to praise Zhao Chenxing for his excellent work and wanted to give him five hundred more wages.
But who would have thought that people would fall out of favor faster than flipping through a book.
Less than a day later, they would completely change their minds, which really caught people off guard.
The suddenness of the incident also made Zhao Chenxing feel extremely angry and unwilling.
However, when he rushed to the construction site with anger, he found that things were not as simple as he imagined
