Chapter 747 Occupancy Qualifications
"It's a passpass!"
Although they were stopped by the guards, Yuan Chang did not show the slightest dissatisfaction on their faces, after all, such a rule was set when this hundred-year-old mountain was established in the first place. The guards were able to strictly abide by the order and did not let them go because of their identity, which naturally only made Yuan Chang and them more satisfied.
The guard took the token, also observed it very carefully, and then handed it back to Xu Shu and said, "The token is confirmed, let it go!"
As the guards' words fell, the guard bar at the gate slowly rose, and the carriage of Yuan Chang and others was able to pass.
On the way, Yang Biao frowned and said puzzledly: "Member Xu, dare to ask what kind of important place this hundred-year-old mountain is, why do you even need to verify the token for your passage? Even the library and the Chinese Academy of Sciences are not so strict." β
"Member Yang can rest assured that there is nothing important in Baisui Mountain. Speaking of which, this is nothing more than a retreat. Xu Shu's face was flat, and he explained casually and did not continue to say more.
"A place of recuperation?"
The look of doubt on Yang Biao's face became even stronger, could it be that there are some characters recuperating here? It's just that even if there are any characters recuperating here, not to mention Liu Xie, on the one acre and three points of land in Youzhou, is it still comparable to Yuan Chang, the big man in Youzhou? Obviously, Yuan Chang and the others didn't plan to explain, so they could only wait with peace of mind, and they would know what kind of character they were later.
The carriage had not traveled for a short time, and in about a quarter of an hour, it stopped.
Just this short distance, Liu Xie, Yang Biao and others were shocked to watch, and the guards were strict, with five steps, one sentry, ten steps and one post, even the palace, it seemed that there were no such strict guards. Moreover, this is still a guard on the surface, faintly, they feel that there are other guards in the dark, and this situation makes Liu Xie and them in a trance.
"What is this?"
Looking at a three-storey villa in front of them, Liu Xie, Yang Biao and the others looked at each other, and there seemed to be nothing special about it.
"Haha, it's fun to have friends from afar!"
A loud laugh came, and Liu Xie, Yang Biao and the others felt a little familiar. Then, an old figure walked out of the villa, it was not Cai Yong, but who it was.
"Uncle, I didn't expect you to be here!"
Yang Biao shouted a little excitedly, and stepped forward to hold Cai Yong's hands tightly. The relationship between the two was not generally friendly, when Wang Yun sent Cai Yong to prison, Yang Biao was one of the few dedicated rescuers, but Wang Yun did not listen to anyone's persuasion at all in order to eradicate Cai Yong, the leader of Confucianism. In the end, because of the counterattack of Chang'an by thieves such as Li Dao and Guo Yan, Yang Biao thought that Cai Yong had died in the chaos and was sad for a while. Not long ago, I learned from Yuan Chang that Cai Yong was still in the world, and I was so happy in my heart, but now that I finally saw me, my joy was beyond words.
"Wen Xian, I haven't seen you for many years, you're fine!"
Cai Yong greeted him, and then saw Liu Xie on the side, and hurriedly stepped forward to salute and said: "The head of state is here, I failed to salute first, and I ask for forgiveness." β
Seeing Liu Xie, Cai Yong was very emotional.
As a representative of Confucianism, Cai Yong has the idea of loyalty to the monarch in his heart. However, relatively speaking, Cai Yong is not a pedantic Confucian. Otherwise, Cai Yan would not have been cultivated into such a talented woman. When he was still an official in the DPRK and China, he did his best and did his best. However, the decline of the Han family is inevitable, and the world will inevitably fall into the hands of one party. And what Yuan Chang did Cai Yong saw in his eyes, and he understood that he intended to get involved in the world. If it is a pedantic person, he will inevitably condemn Yuan Chang's disobedience, but Cai Yong is not such a person, he saw it in his eyes, but he didn't say much. Moreover, Yuan often put him in charge of education, and he did not interfere in military and political affairs, so he did not make him embarrassed. Now, seeing Liu Xie in front of him, he is still a little embarrassed in his heart.
Liu Xie had already figured it out, but he didn't have much thought, and when he saw Cai Yong, he said with emotion: "In the past, I heard that Cai Zhonglang died at the hands of thieves, and I was sad in my heart for many days. Today, I am very happy to see that Cai Zhonglang is safe!"
"There is a concern of the head of Lao!"
Xu Shu stepped forward and introduced in a timely manner: "Now Cai Zhonglang is also one of the members of the Central Committee, and he is mainly responsible for education, and he holds the position of Minister of Education. β
"With Cai Zhong... Minister Cai's knowledge and responsibility for education are really a blessing for the world's scholars!"
Zhao Wen is also serving Yuan Chang now, so he naturally praised it in a timely manner. Moreover, Cai Yong's reputation spreads all over the world, and he deserves such praise.
"Commissioner Zhao has an overreputation!"
Cai Yong replied humbly, and said: "Previously, a certain person was also complacent in his heart, thinking that he was well-read and knowledgeable; however, since he had seen Chairman Yuan's various theories, he knew that he could not see Mount Tai at all, and he was actually a frog at the bottom of the well.
Several people talked happily, and seemed to have forgotten the purpose of this trip, Zhang Xi hesitated for a moment, but still stepped forward and asked, "Minister Cai, isn't Baisui Mountain where you live?"
It is no wonder that Zhang Xi is so puzzled, the environment of Baisui Mountain is quiet and well-guarded, and in any respect, it is more than a hundred times superior to the place where Liu Xie lives, if it is really Cai Yong's place of residence, then where will Liu Xie's face be placed? Moreover, what qualifications does Cai Yong have to live in such a place? Of course, Zhang Xi naturally has a little jealousy in his heart.
"It's my dereliction of duty that I forgot to explain to you the usefulness of the Hundred Years Old Mountain. β
Xu Shu stood up and blamed himself, and then under the gaze of Liu Xie and his party, he said: "Speaking of which, it is not wrong for Baisui Mountain to say that it is Minister Cai's place of residence now, and he is the only one who is qualified to live here..."
"This..."
Yang Biao and the others looked at each other, saying this in front of Liu Xie, and it seemed that Cai Yong's position was placed extremely high, wouldn't it be a shame not to give Liu Xieding some face? However, Yang Biao and the others looked at Liu Xie, but they saw that Liu Xie did not have the slightest hint of disregard on his face, as if Xu Shu's words were not taken to heart at all. In this way, Yang Biao and the others breathed a sigh of relief, if they clashed with Yuan Chang in this matter, it seemed a little worthless.
Xu Shu paused, and then continued: "Of course, Baisui Mountain is not a place where Minister Cai lives alone. As you can see, there are dozens of villas here, and there are villas under construction. Therefore, the number of people will naturally increase in the future, and it is possible that all of you present will live here. β
"Possibly?"
Most of the people present were old oilmen who had been in the officialdom for many years, and they clearly grasped the main point of Xu Shu's words, and they all looked at Xu Shu with a puzzled expression, as if they didn't understand what this might mean.
Xu Shu's face did not change in the slightest, looked at everyone, talked eloquently, and said: "That's right, as you think, you may live on the Hundred Years Old Mountain, but you will definitely live here. First of all, I would like to inform you of what kind of people are likely to live on the 100-year-old mountain, to put it bluntly, the 100-year-old mountain is a place of cultivation at the top level, and only officials who have reached the level of commissioners, or those who have reached the level of military commander can live here. Most of the people present have already reached their level, so this condition has naturally been met. β
The people present have all reached the level of committee members, and Yang Biao and Dong Cheng have also given them the post of honorary deputy commander of the Youzhou Military Region, so they naturally meet the conditions.
"Of course, if the conditions are met, you are naturally qualified to live here. However, if a person commits a mistake or commits any crime in the future, he will naturally be excluded from this list and will not be allowed to live here. β
Dong Cheng muttered to himself in his heart, this place is also quieter, can it really be like the name, live to be 100 years old, what is worth remembering.
Perhaps knowing their thoughts, Xu Shu continued: "Maybe you will think, what is the difference between living here and living in your own mansion? First of all, the people who live here, except for themselves and their daughters, their children, parents, etc., are not allowed to live here, and secondly, there is an independent and complete medical system here, and the best apricot forest masters are always on call to ensure the physical condition of the people who live here. Of course, there are many other benefits, so I won't say much about them, and you will naturally have the opportunity to experience them slowly in the future. In a word, living here is a symbol of status and status, but also a guarantee of life and health, and our expectation is to live a long life as the Lord gave him, so that the people who live here can live a long life. β
"This..."
After listening to Xu Shu's words, Liu Xie and the others were all hot in their eyes, even Dong Cheng no longer had the heart to underestimate him. Regardless of whether they can live a long life or not, a status symbol alone is enough to attract their attention. If you can't live here, isn't it enough to tell others who they are?
"The FΓΌhrer and a few old friends are here, and I will entertain them today!"
Cai Yong broke everyone's illusions and invited him with great interest, but looking at his expression, it always seemed to give people a sense of showmanship.
Obviously, Cai Yong knew that they were coming, and he had been prepared for it. Waiting for a group of people to enter the villa and sit down at the dining table, dishes with all colors and aromas will be placed on the table, even Liu Xie, the genius, has never seen these dishes in front of him, which is dazzling.
"Haha, the benefits of living here Commissioner Xu didn't say a little just now, so I took this opportunity to add to the old man. In addition to the specially arranged doctors, there are also a number of chefs in each residence on Baisui Mountain, who are proficient in the cooking skills of a variety of local tastes, so that you can eat delicious food without repetition within 30 days. β
Cai Yong praised it, then looked at Yuan Chang, and said with a 'grudge': "It's just that the rule set by Chairman Yuan is that children are not allowed to live here, which is a bit insufficient. Otherwise, the old man wants my two daughters to come here to feel it. β
Liu Xie and others also felt very reasonable after listening to Cai Yong's words, the parents worked so hard not to make their children's lives better, and it stands to reason that it is reasonable to let their children live here with them.
It's just that Yuan Chang's face remained unchanged, and he said lightly: "Whether or not the children can live here depends on their own efforts. Because of the status of their fathers, they themselves already enjoy the treatment that ordinary people do not have, and how can they be allowed to live here in vain, this rule cannot be changed. If a person cannot rise to a high position by his own efforts, and wants to mingle here with the blessing of his father, his children and grandchildren, and his children and grandchildren, how can he show the preciousness of the Hundred Years Old Mountain? Therefore, to make you unhappy, if your children and grandchildren do not reach the corresponding position, they will have no help to live here for the rest of their lives. Even my children and grandchildren are the same, and there are no exceptions!"
Hearing what Yuan Chang said so categorically, and Yuan Chang also said that his children and grandchildren also had no special treatment, so they didn't have any extra thoughts. Besides, what Yuan Chang said is right, if anyone can live here, how can it show the special status of Baisui Mountain, who will strive to climb to the corresponding status in order to fight for the right to live here. In this way, Yuan Chang's regulations are still very reasonable.
Hum!
Cai Yong snorted coldly in his heart, knowing that he couldn't argue with Yuan Chang, after all, these rules were set by Yuan Chang, and for the rule-maker, Cai Yong obviously had no advantage. However, Cai Yan is his daughter, and when the time comes, tell her a good lesson, teach Yuan Chang a good lesson, and teach Yuan Chang so facelessly.
After the meal, there were attendants who brought fresh melons and fruits for everyone to taste, and then, there were more high-quality tea teas, which made Liu Xie and others feel happy in their hearts, and they couldn't wait to move here immediately. And after a conversation, Liu Xie and the others also understood that the melons, fruits, vegetables, grains and other foods here were not purchased, they were all specially planted in the Baisui Mountain, and as for meat and other game, they were also hunted from the mountains and forests. At this point, it can be said that no one has the intention of refusing to stay in Baisui Mountain.
After tasting tea for a while, the sky gradually began to darken, and today's visit made Liu Xie and others very fruitful and quite satisfied.
Before leaving, Xu Shu said: "If you decide to stay in Baisui Mountain, you may wish to inform Yu of your wishes, and a certain craftsman will arrange for a craftsman to create a pass token for you." This pass token is a piece of each person, and the guards only recognize the token but not the person. As for your daughters, they are also distributed according to the number of people, and they should not be overreported. As for your children and friends who want to come to visit, you can report and register your information at the gate guard, and as for the detailed rules and regulations, after you move here, someone will explain to you. β
"Since it is the benefits that Chairman Yuan gave me, the old man is disrespectful, and I will move to Baisui Mountain tomorrow to see what the difference is, haha!"
Yang Biao was not polite, and immediately answered the call to sign up. The rest of the people did not hesitate, who would refuse such a good thing.
