Chapter 54: Restoration of the Old Summer Palace

"Oh, that's right!" Yang Qianxue blinked her eyes and asked, "I don't know what things with historical value include?" Does architecture count? ”

Dai Mao said: "Of course, ancient buildings belong to things with historical value, and some buildings are much larger than a single cultural relic, such as ancient city walls, palaces, imperial tombs, etc., which have extremely high archaeological value, but those things are placed on the ground and do not belong to the tradable category!" ”

"If you can restore a building complex that has disappeared or is broken, can it be protected by the state? Does it belong to the individual? "Yang Qianxue's problems are one after another, and the design is very exquisite, and before throwing out the ultimate goal, we must first eliminate possible problems.

"Generally, the incomplete building complex is not capable of being restored to its original state at all, which requires the personnel of the national archaeological and cultural institutions to restore and restore it in combination with the relevant documents and historical background of the monuments, but most of the buildings have been damaged for a long time and there is no corresponding number of drawings preserved, so the difficulty of restoring is quite large, and it is almost impossible to complete!" Dai Maoxue paused, took a sip of tea, and continued:

"As for the buildings that have disappeared, this is even more fantastical, because there is no way to compare and verify, so even if it is built, it can only be regarded as an antique building at most, and cannot be regarded as a monument! Moreover, the local government is very strict with the supervision of this kind of building, and will not approve the construction lightly! ”

"What? Is there something you need your dad to help with? Although Yang Qianxue's expression management is very good, but knowing her daughter Mo Ruo's father, she was still knocked out by Dai Maoxue, "If you have something, just say it, as long as you don't violate the principles, I will definitely help your father who can help!" ”

The implication is that if you violate the principle, you will definitely not be able to help.

Yang Qianxue smiled, took Dai Maoxue's arm and said: "I can't hide anything from your insight, Dad, then I'll tell you the truth, the one next to me is actually my boss, and he wants to apply for a piece of land of 5,000 acres to rebuild the Old Summer Palace!" She deliberately added another acre of three or four thousand acres, which could be regarded as a room for maneuver.

"Build the Old Summer Palace?" Dai Maoxue smiled dumbly, the Old Summer Palace burned down more than 150 years ago, the craftsmen who participated in the construction died when the British and French troops invaded the capital, and they fled, after so long, although there are also scholars according to the description of relevant documents, probably made some renderings, but compared with the huge garden, it is just a rarity, how easy is it to restore the most classic garden in history?

He looked at Zhang Yuntian and then at Yang Qianxue, although he felt that this kid must want to make a lot of money by hyping up the Old Summer Palace, but for the sake of his daughter's face, he definitely couldn't directly refuse, so he said kindly: "This is a huge project, not to mention the huge investment, and the results may not be satisfactory, after all, the Old Summer Palace you built later and the Summer Palace left behind, the Forbidden City cannot be compared, the latter has a strong cultural heritage, so you have to think about it carefully, young man!" ”

Zhang Yuntian couldn't hear Dai Maoxue's voice, in fact, this was rejecting himself, but now he said it mildly, and he didn't mind, he smiled and said: "I know this idea sounds a bit fantastical, the reason why Uncle Dai has such a reaction is also reasonable, but since I plan to build the Old Summer Palace, naturally there are my reasons, Uncle Dai, please take a look!" ”

As he spoke, Zhang Yuntian took out the architectural scanning device and put it on the ground, and soon, a miniature bird's-eye view of the Old Summer Palace appeared on the floor of the entire living room, "This is the layout of the Old Summer Palace that I have restored based on the historical materials I have mastered from many aspects, and the pavilions and pavilions inside are all the sizes, and even the carvings on each pillar are exactly the same!"

With a stroke of his hand, he enlarged a courtyard, and not only the pattern of the carvings could be clearly seen, but even the grain of the wood could be clearly seen.

Yang Qianxue saw such a bird's-eye view, she couldn't help but open her eyes, she had experienced the chic scenery inside in the morning, she didn't expect the entire Old Summer Palace to be so big, and every place has a style and mood, even if such a garden does not have the name of the Old Summer Palace, it can definitely be called a classic of the world's gardens.

Dai Maoxue was also shocked at this time a little speechless, what he saw in his eyes was not only the beautiful scenery, but also the essence of the entire Chinese culture, although the pattern style on it was not a single one, but the intuition told sΓΉ himself, this is absolutely the accumulation of Chinese civilization, if the layout of the entire garden is deliberately designed by people, then this person is definitely the only grandmaster-level figure in the entire country.

Merely... A legendary figure that even the Palace Museum can't match? Is there really such a person? Dai Maoxue was even a little shaken at this time, if it weren't for his reason constantly telling himself that the Old Summer Palace could not be repaired, he would definitely believe that the architectural layout in front of him was definitely the Garden of Ten Thousand Gardens!

Dai Maoxue pondered for a while, at this time he looked at Zhang Yuntian's gaze again, not only did he not disdain, but he also had a little appreciation, at least the young man in front of him was not an upstart who did not learn and did not know how to learn, it seemed that he still had a deep understanding of Chinese civilization, so in his tone, he was also a little polite, "Chairman Zhang, the garden scenery you showed me is definitely the most magnificent and magnificent scenery I have ever seen in my life, and its beauty can even be compared with the solemnity of the Forbidden City!" ”

He sighed, "Alas, it's a pity that the country has a national policy, even if such a garden is built, it will only be recognized as an imitation of the Old Summer Palace, and it will definitely not be treated and protected as a historical relic. These expenses are enough to bring down a Fortune 500 company in China, so you should be cautious about this matter! ”

Zhang Yuntian nodded gratefully, he also knew that it was a little impractical to swallow the entire garden alone, whether from an economic point of view or from the perspective of cultural protection, so he also made a slight concession, "Thank you Uncle Dai for your advice, I have considered these things, so I want to use part of the entire Old Summer Palace as a museum, part as a scenic spot, and part as a private residence!" ”
