Chapter 578: Five Ridges and Six Beasts
In fact, he is really not alone in the courtyard, and there is also a Meihua, but in Hong Tao's eyes, it is better not to have her. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info dangles in front of his eyes all day long, a mouthful of Brother Hong is so sweet, and from time to time he will clean up the house and cook for himself, but he can't touch it, he can only be regarded as a pink skeleton.
To say that Zhang Yuanyuan's trick is really poisonous, it seems that she trusts herself 100%, but in fact, it is better not to trust. If there was no Meihua staring at herself all day at home, she would be able to hang out with Jiang Zhuyi for a few days this Spring Festival. It's good now, I only dare to go during the day, and as soon as it gets dark, I have to run back quickly, and lie on the kang alone.
When it comes to the five ridges and six beasts, I have to mention that Mrs. Wei's yard was finally completed before New Year's Day, how was it repaired? One word, good! Another word, expensive! Finally, two words, arrogant! It can be summed up in one sentence.
Why? Because there were ten little monsters lying on the ridge of her house.
According to Uncle Jin's original design drawing, the main house of Mrs. Wei's house is a variant of a single-eaves hilltop, which is not low, and the additional layer is Tiananmen Square. However, when Mrs. Wei came in the summer, she felt unlucky, and made a small suggestion with Hong Tao, the chief supervisor of the project, that is, whether she could add a few auspicious beasts to the ridge of the house.
said that it was a suggestion, but listening to Hong Tao's ears is Party A's wishes, then add it, you don't have to make your own ideas about this little thing, call the captain of the construction team and let him talk to the old lady by himself.
As a result, the captain was stunned by Mrs. Wei, and directly added five auspicious beasts to each of the two vertical ridges facing south, and also made a spine swallowing beast and a riding phoenix. It is estimated that he also has good intentions and wants to please the old lady, so that he can be happy when he makes the project payment. The budget of this courtyard has been increased four times, and compared with the original design, it is directly doubled and turned, although he knows that Hong Tao is in charge of the project, but he still has to shoot when he can shoot Party A's ass.
At first, Hong Tao didn't notice anything abnormal, but he felt that it would be troublesome to repair it after adding so many messy things to the roof, but at the end of the year, Uncle Jin came once, intending to see how well the yard he designed was built, but as soon as he got out of the car and entered the yard, Hong Tao was slapped twice on the head.
In Uncle Jin's words, this yard was originally a very regular two-entry quadrangle, flat and stable, but now it has become a toy for the nouveau riche to show off their wealth.
The problem lies with these ten little monsters. It turns out that this thing is not just put on the roof, and there are strict regulations on ancient buildings. There are ten on the roof of the Taihe Hall of the Forbidden City, and the scorpion is the only one. Nine were used in the Qianqing Palace, which can be regarded as the level of the Great Hall of the People. There are only five in the main halls of the East Palace and the West Palace, and the other palaces are generally three, and most of them are one.
Now there are five little monsters standing on the roof of Mrs. Wei's house, is this going to be the East Palace or the West Palace?
What made Uncle Jin even more angry was that these ten little monsters were still on the left and right, each on one side, and each one was not the same. On the left are the fox, the bull, the pig, the phoenix, and the fish, and on the right are the dragon, the heavenly horse, the seahorse, the lion, and the xingshi. I don't say anything about the craftsmanship, but according to the rules, I don't do it, the traditional architecture pays attention to symmetry, what is on the left and what is on the right.
"The old lady has to let me get all ten auspicious beasts, and I can't get ten of them at the same time, and there is no place to put them!" The head of the engineering team is also very aggrieved, Uncle Jin also understands what he said, and it is not that he has never worked in ancient buildings, the problem is that when it comes to the word money, he can only pretend that he can't understand it, and whoever gives the money listens to whom.
“…… You two listen to me, and after you finish this work, you will burn the drawings quickly, and no one will mention that I designed this yard. I don't know it, I don't know you both!"
Uncle Jin asked the head of the engineering team to say that he was speechless, indeed, the master let him do this, and the work would definitely not be stopped. couldn't control Mrs. Wei, so she had to sprinkle this breath on Hong Tao. As a result, Hong Tao is not a person inside and out, and he has been busy for a long time and has not yet finished a sentence, so he is complaining.
However, it is by no means Hong Tao's style to complain about not taking advantage of Guangluo, and he doesn't want to benefit anyone who gets up early. Mrs. Wei's courtyard is generally very good, the red wall and blue tiles, grinding bricks and joints, the front porch and the back of the building, and the rockery and small pond, there are two big flower beds at the door, and what kind of bicycles.
How lonely it is for the old lady to live alone in such a good yard, so Hong Tao adheres to the fine tradition of respecting the old and loving the young, and decides to send some warmth to the old lady. What kind of warmth is to open a moon gate on the wall shared by the two families, and then the garden of Mrs. Wei's house will become shared by the two families. Hong Tao only needs to push the door from the yard to have an extra back garden.
Of course, this is not to plot the old lady's garden, but to take care of the old lady more conveniently and quickly, so that she can enjoy the warmth of the family. Since they are all a family, what is still divided into each other, what is yours is mine, and mine is still mine.
Hong Tao has already thought that as long as the fish he catches in the future are still alive, he will throw them into the small pond in the garden, let them grow with the goldfish here, and by the way, he can also teach his daughter to fish. Although it is so close to the back sea, it is not as comfortable as sitting in the pavilion without sun or rain.
Originally, the arrival of the New Year made Hong Tao very happy, the plan that had been planned for several years was finally completed, and all the Internet cafes were opened, and the business was very good, and the new and old customers who had been holding back for several months were almost crowded out of the Internet cafes.
At noon or in the evening, I just found a lobster chain Internet café, and there was a group of people waiting in line, and the small money began to flow in like a screwed faucet. Don't look at the pipes are not thick, but they can't stand more, they still flow non-stop 24 hours a day, enjoyable!
But just a few days after Hong Tao was happy, the thing that worried him came again, this time not at home but abroad. North Korea's abrupt announcement of its withdrawal from the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty in mid-January unexpectedly prompted it to develop nuclear weapons. In fact, China did the same thing in the past, and without the atomic bomb, life was even more difficult.
But everyone is like this, whatever they do is reasonable and reasonable, and it is unreasonable for others to do the same thing. At the national level, North Korea has to listen to China and Russia if it doesn't have nuclear weapons, and if it has whomever it wants, it has to discuss.
The turmoil on the North Korean side is not over, and something has happened to the Americans. They had a space shuttle called Columbia disintegrated over Texas, and none of the seven astronauts remained, all hanging.
It is said that these two things have nothing to do with Hong Tao, the Secretary-General of the United Nations has not been replaced, and the earth has no intention of electing him as the captain, what do you care about other people's countries.
Hong Tao thought so at first, but then it didn't work, Ms. Bai called and talked to herself for a long time, and she didn't know what to say. In the end, she was forced to tell the truth, she came to ask the Feng family about North Korea's withdrawal from the treaty and the crash of the US space shuttle, why didn't she tell them in advance.
This made the Feng family a little scrambling, and it was worth it that their family had increased their investment in the military industry since they tasted the sweetness of the 911 and US-Iraq wars.
Then Ms. Bai said again, the Feng family has already stated that the donation of two million will be in the foundation's account immediately, this time it is not Hong Kong dollars to US dollars, what should the master do with it, there is no need to say hello, just ask for this kind of thing to be revealed in advance next time.
Ms. Feng's family dares to do arms business with the DPRK? It sounds like a bit of a fantasy, aren't they afraid that the US government will turn around and arrest their family as traitors?
It is too simple to think so, the US government clamors every day to isolate North Korea and prohibit the whole world from doing business with North Korea, as if killing his father and enemy, in fact, American businessmen have never cut off business contacts with North Korea at all, and a kind of steel-shelled bullet can be seen in many shooting ranges in North America, the price is very cheap, and that thing is made in North Korea.
In this regard, the whole world has to learn from the old-fashioned imperialist countries such as the United States and Britain, and they can fight ideologically and politically, but they must never delay making profits for their own countries, and they must still do business when they should do business.
Why have you been fighting for a long time? Isn't it still to take advantage, as long as the goal is achieved, this kind of country based on commerce will never grieve itself for the sake of face.
On the surface, the U.S. government still prohibits domestic companies from doing business with the DPRK, but privately allows some more intimate companies to secretly display their positions, especially arms companies. The Feng family didn't get mixed up to this extent, they just invested money to be shareholders in these companies, but they were also mixed well, and this kind of money was not something that anyone could earn.
"Chairman Bai, you have to make this matter clear to these families, I said it is love, not to say that it is my duty, we can't use me as a perpetual calendar!" Hong Tao really didn't expect the Feng family to come to such a hand, it is worth it for them to rely on themselves, and they don't plan to use their own brains to do business, they all have to rely on internal information. Where is this, I am not Sima Qian, I can remember everything big or small.
Besides, you can't get used to this problem, the master has to have the demeanor of a master, but when it's time to turn his face, he must turn it faster than the average person. Five million dollars can be collected, and your wishes will not be satisfied. Viagra works, but it can't be eaten as jelly beans, and from time to time it is hard to get it once, and you still expect to stand up twenty-four hours a day, and people's hearts are not enough to swallow elephants!
