Director Zhang is also very concerned about Zhang Junyi's affairs, and after a cup of tea, Zhang Junyi remembered the knock on the door.

Zhang Junyi opened the door and saw that Director Zhang was coming, first politely invited Director Zhang into the room, and after the two sat on the sofa and greeted politely for a while, Zhang Junyi took Meng Yuan, Zhou Tai, and Director Zhang out of the State Guesthouse.

Director Zhang, who was sitting in the car, introduced to Zhang Junyi that the first thing he was going to see was the large duplex courtyard house of more than 2,000 square meters, which was located in Xuanwu District, very close to the Liuli Factory, and it would take a few minutes to walk to the Liuli Factory.

Director Zhang also knew through internal information that Zhang Junyi spent a lot of money to buy a large number of antiques, so he took the initiative and first looked at this yard very close to the glass factory.

Zhang Junyi knows this set of courtyards, and among the information that Director Zhang showed him yesterday, Zhang Junyi is also the most satisfied with this set of courtyards.

This set of courtyards is composed of five small courtyard houses, and in ancient times, it was definitely called the gate of the mansion.

Judging from the floor plan, this courtyard includes five courtyards, two gardens, covering an area of more than 500 square meters, rockeries, fish ponds, pavilions, etc., there are several courtyards connected by a cloister, the design is very ingenious, as for what facilities there are inside, it is necessary for Zhang Junyi to investigate on the spot to know.

As for the rest of the courtyards, Zhang Junyi felt that either the geographical location was not ideal or Zhang Junyi disliked the area was too small, so Zhang Junyi decided to look at this set first, and if it met his own requirements, then buy it, after all, it is not that you can live in it if you buy it, after all, many courtyard houses are abandoned for a long time and must be built a lot.

When he arrived at the ground, Zhang Junyi hadn't gotten out of the car yet, and he secretly liked it here.

Zhang Junyi found that this place is quite quiet, full of alleys and alleys, blue bricks and red tiles, the upper stones at the entrance of the house, and the bright green moss in the cracks in the alleys, revealing a sense of the vicissitudes of time everywhere.

Walking on the street, Zhang Junyi seemed to have returned to the old courtyard where he lived in his childhood in his previous life, and his expression couldn't help but be a little trance-like.

Several people walked to the door of the target courtyard, Zhang Junyi took out a cigarette, first handed one to Director Zhang, and then threw one to Meng Yuan and Zhou Tai each, Zhang Junyi was not worried about his personal safety in Kyoto, so Meng Yuan and Zhou Tai's protection work was basically a show.

"Director Zhang, I'll trouble you to introduce me later......" Zhang Junyi said politely.

"Mr. Zhang is so polite, you have made such a great contribution to our Ministry of Education, Zhang is a member of the Ministry of Education, this is what I should do, and it is also an honor for Zhang to do something for Mr. Zhang, let's talk while watching......" Director Zhang said quite politely, and walked in front of everyone with agility that did not match his figure.

"Mr. Zhang, inside this wall, all belong to this set of courtyards, the gate is in front, please follow me!" Director Zhang began to introduce from the outside of the courtyard, and led the way for Zhang Junyi, while stretching out his hand in front to lead the way, while introducing: "According to records, the house here was built in the Kangxi period of the Qing Dynasty, and the people who lived in it were all officials of the third rank and above, and they have been renovated for a period of time, and they can be regarded as relatively well preserved among the many courtyards of the same grade in Kyoto." ”

In Director Zhang's short words, the four of them have walked to the gate of this mansion, Zhang Junyi looked at the gate of the mansion in front of him, and couldn't help but be excited, even if he had seen the top mansion in Xiangjiang, he couldn't help but applaud the grandeur of the mansion in front of him.

Even if Zhang Junyi has seen a lot of luxury villas in TV series and movies in his previous life, such as the large courtyard houses in front of him on the screen, but the feeling in the movie is absolutely not the same as the real thing in reality.

The gate of the courtyard is also exquisite, according to the status of the master, the street gate of the courtyard is divided into the palace gate, the Guangliang gate, the golden pillar gate, the barbarian gate, the Ruyi gate, the wall-type gate (gatehouse) and other different shapes,

The gate of the courtyard in front of Zhang Junyi is the Guangliang gate, that is to say, the courtyard in front of Zhang Junyi is a kind of house gate second only to the gate of the palace, the gate is wide and open, and the door is located in the position of the central pillar, which has a more gorgeous decoration.

The gate is like a wall, the gatehouse, the threshold, the door frame, the door nail, the door pillow, the trowel, the beast-faced door cymbals, etc., as well as the door couplings on both sides, it can be said that there is no shortage, Zhang Junyi's mind not only appeared in the ancient courtyard when the owner walked out of this gate, the front and back hugging the situation.

The gate is surrounded by brick walls, painted with color, and painted on the beams, columns, doors and windows, and cornice rafters, but it is possible that this house has not been inhabited for a long time, and the color has fallen off and faded, and it looks a little dilapidated.

"Mr. Zhang, let's go in and take a look at the inside of the courtyard!" Director Zhang took out a bronze key with an ancient style, opened the door of the courtyard, stretched out his hand to let Zhang Junyi in, and led the way in front.

When you walk into the gate of the courtyard, you will be greeted by an independent shadow wall, placed in the street outside the gate of the courtyard, facing the gate.

The center of the shadow wall is made of square bricks placed at an angle of 45 degrees, and the brick carvings with many auspicious patterns are decorated on the shadow wall, and the brick carvings mainly have the center and four corners of the central area, and there are also mixed owls and beads in the places where they intersect with the roof.

The central brick is carved with a central flower and a fork in the center of the wall, and a brick plaque with the word Fushou is inlaid in the center of the shadow wall, or a brick carving with auspicious meaning.

The roof of the shadow wall is the same as the roof, although it is made of bricks, but the rafters are carved out of bricks, and the roof with a clear water ridge or a roll ridge is set on it.

After Zhang Junyi and others entered the gate, there was a screen door on the left and right sides of the shadow wall, which led to the small courtyard of the "juku" to the east and the outer courtyard with an inverted seat to the west. There is also a screen door in the hanging flower door between the inner and outer courtyards, the screen door is also called the middle door, the function is similar to the instrument door, usually closed, people enter by the left and right corridors in front of the door, and it is opened only when a major event or a distinguished guest comes.

Zhang Junyi's eyes of the cornice of the door rafter rafters oil into blue-green, Wangmu oil into red, round rafters into blue, white and black set of pearl patterns like halos, square rafters are blue-bottomed gold swastika or rhombic pattern. The front eaves front center brocade, flowers, bogu, etc., the weeping lotus column head on both sides is painted colorful according to the carved pattern.
