Chapter 43: The Gate of the Mansion

"This Tang knife is enough to become the treasure of the Palace Museum."

At the moment when Qin Xuebing picked up the Tang knife, Dean Zhong's mind couldn't help but come alive, if this Tang knife could be included in the Palace Museum, it would definitely be called the treasure of the town. Especially in the recent tension with the Japanese state, the originator of the Japanese knife unearthed in China, Tang Dao, and through appropriate hype, it will definitely be able to inspire people and attract more people to enter the Palace Museum.

However, Dean Zhong also knows that for collectors, a good collection is equivalent to a piece of meat on the body, and to cut this piece of meat requires not only enough wisdom, but also enough patience and skill.

"People are really incomparable!" Qian Zhengtai secretly sighed, he has been collecting for most of his life, and it is the first time he has met Qin Xuebing. Chenghua Doucai Chicken Bowl Cup, Missing Corner Daqi, Tang Knife, which is not the dream collection of the majority of collectors, it is impossible to get one in his lifetime, but this kid actually got three pieces in a month.

What's even more speechless is that Qin Xuebing bought this Tang knife completely as a modern handicraft, but it turned out to be genuine, and he didn't know what words to use to describe such unfortunate luck.

"I see!"

The vitality entered the inside of the Tang Dao, and Qin Xuebing finally knew why this knife, which was obviously old, did not cause the induction of the vitality.

There was no trace of old qi in this knife at all, it was filled with a huge amount of vitality, even the vitality in his body was far from being comparable to it.

Yuan Qi, Qin Xuebing can sense it, just like the Yuan Qi in the air, if it can't be sensed, how can it be introduced into the body to practice? It's just that the vitality in the Tang Dao is very peculiar, restrained and calm, and it doesn't leak out, as if it is isolated from the world, so Qin Xuebing can't sense it.

And the reason for this is that the dense magic circle of the blade and the handle of the knife is carved by the people of Qimen with the secret method of Qimen, which has a special use.

Magic Weapon! The two words appeared in Qin Xuebing's mind, whether it was taught by the old man, or the secret method brought by the jade pen, it involved magic weapons.

It is very difficult to make magic weapons, and the person who makes them must have a certain amount of cultivation so that they can perform the secret art of Qimen and engrave the magic circle on the magic weapon.

This is still secondary, the most important thing is to warm up the magic weapon, you need to find a place with full vitality to warm and nurture only the magic weapon that is only good, so that the magic weapon can absorb enough vitality to be considered a complete success. Generally speaking, an ordinary magic weapon needs to be warmed for three to five years, and a better one needs ten years and eight years, and it is not surprising that those top-level magic weapons used for inheritance are warmed for dozens or hundreds of years.

"I made a lot of money this time!" Qin Xuebing was secretly excited, for the people of Qimen, a good magic weapon may be equivalent to a surname, and this Tang knife has been inherited for so many years, and its vitality is incomparably abundant, and it is definitely not weaker than any magic weapon.

And Qin Xuebing knew very well that getting a top-level magic weapon at this time was equivalent to sending charcoal in the snow, and it would provide an extra layer of insurance for the treasure hunt journey that was about to begin.

Although he is very reluctant to cooperate with the beautiful snake, he must admit that the treasure is still very attractive to him, and if he participates in the treasure hunt, he can get a piece of the pie, even if the share is not very large, but it is not something that can be compared with the assets he has now.

And this treasure hunt will never be easy in Qin Xuebing's opinion, because the designer of this tomb is not an ordinary mechanic, but a Qimen man Hang Xinzhai, and there is absolutely no lack of Qimen magic circle left by Qimen people in the tomb to deal with tomb robbers. And with this magic weapon, it is undoubtedly easier to decipher the various arrangements in the tomb.

However, because it was made into a magic weapon, the old atmosphere was lost, and the jade pen could not calculate its age, and no one could be sure whether it was a real Tang knife.

"Xiao Qin, do you want me to help you contact the Forbidden City's carbon 14 testing department?" Dean Zhong is happy to give Qin Xuebing a favor, and he will be able to ask for favors in the future.

"Thank you, Dean Zhong, but I still have some things to deal with in the near future, so I'll send them for testing later." Qin Xuebing politely refused, there is no need to owe favors, you must know that the debt of favors is the most difficult to repay.

However, carbon 14 testing is a must, Qin Xuebing also wants to know whether it is really a Tang knife, if it is a genuine product that opens the door to the generation, it is undoubtedly the best counterattack to those remarks of the Japanese country.

Depositing the Tang knife in the Sifang Pavilion, Qin Xuebing said goodbye first, of course, followed by a beautiful tail: "I can't see it, you can really pick up the leaks, you have accumulated so much property in just one month, presumably you are not short of money, right?" ”

"I don't have a house or a car, do you think I'm short of money?" Qin Xuebing naturally wouldn't follow Yin Rou's words, otherwise this beautiful snake would have to talk to him and explain the meaning of treasure hunting.

"Isn't it easy to get an RV? If you sell just one piece, you can live in a luxury house and drive a luxury car. ”

The beautiful snake worked tirelessly, but Qin Xuebing was too lazy to talk nonsense: "It's useless to say more, as long as you promise the treasure to be divided in half, I will pack up my things at night and set off tomorrow to hunt for treasure." ”

"I'd like to, but do I agree it works?" Yin Rou was not angry, she only came over this time to reach an intention with Qin Xuebing on behalf of the department, and the specific distribution had to be decided at the top, she didn't have this right at all.

Of course, you don't have to think about it, if someone agrees, it must be trying to kill people afterwards.

"Then find someone who can call the shots and talk to me." Qin Xuebing didn't look back, and quickly stopped a taxi and rushed to the address that Roger explained, Cui Yuxuan.

Cuiyuxuan is a jade shop, the scale is not large, and the location is not prosperous, but there are boutique products launched from time to time, and it can be regarded as a time-honored brand in the capital.

"What a place, why can't I find it?" Standing in front of Cuiyuxuan, Qin Xuebing sighed, the feng shui here was exactly what he asked for but couldn't get.

The main feng shui of the capital is the dragon vein, which extends almost the entire capital, but the most essential part is naturally the imperial palace Forbidden City.

However, in addition to the Forbidden City, the dragon vein also extends to all corners, and many places have branches of the dragon vein, but today's real estate developers do not pay attention to feng shui, and these dragon vein branches are destroyed in a mess.

Jade Pavilion is located on a branch of a dragon vein, but it is fortunate that the feng shui here has not been destroyed, on the contrary, it is still very well preserved. From a Feng Shui point of view, Jade Pavilion and the houses in its vicinity are ideal places to live.

"Looks like we're going to have to get ready to rent a house here." Qin Xuebing quickly made up his mind, since he couldn't buy a house, he would rent a set, and it was important to occupy the feng shui treasure land first.

"Hey, what's going on over there?"

Looking around, Qin Xuebing was suddenly shocked, there was a set of courtyard houses not far away, a very strange courtyard house.

Since the Yuan Dynasty officially built the capital and planned the construction of the capital on a large scale, the courtyard houses appeared at the same time as the palaces, government offices, blocks, alleys and alleys of the capital. According to Xiong Mengxiang's "Analysis of Jinzhi" at the end of the Yuan Dynasty: "The street system, from the south to the north is called the warp, and from the east to the west is called the weft. The street is twenty-four steps wide, three hundred and eighty-four fire lanes, and twenty-nine streets. The so-called "street pass" here is what we call the hutong today, and between the hutong and the hutong is the land for the subjects to build houses.

Courtyard houses are generally divided into three sizes, small courtyards, medium courtyards, and large courtyards.

The small courtyard is generally three rooms in the north room, one bright and two dark or two bright and one dark. There are two rooms in the east and west wings, and three rooms in the south room (inverted seat room). Lying brick to the top, ridged tile house. It can live in a family of three generations, the ancestors live in the main house, the younger generation lives in the wing room, and the south room is used as a study or living room. The courtyard is paved with brick roads to connect the doors of various houses, and there are steps in front of each house. There are two large doors, decorated with black lacquer and oil, and there is a pair of brass door cymbals on the door, and two are pasted with couplets.

The middle courtyard is more spacious than the small courtyard, generally there are 5 rooms in the north room, 3 are 2 ears, 3 rooms in the east and west wings, and there is a corridor in front of the house to shelter from the wind and rain. In addition, the courtyard wall is separated by the front yard (outer courtyard) and the back yard (inner courtyard), and the courtyard wall is connected by the moon gate. The front yard is shallow in depth, with one or two houses as the gatehouse, the backyard is the living room, the building is exquisite, the square bricks in the layer are on the ground, and the bluestone is used as the steps.

The large courtyard house is customarily called the "mansion gate", and the house setting can be 5 south and 5 north, 7 south and 7 north, and there are even 9 or 11 large main houses, which are generally duplex courtyards, that is, they are connected by multiple courtyard houses in depth. There are many courtyards, including front yard, back yard, east courtyard, west courtyard, main courtyard, partial courtyard, cross courtyard, study courtyard, enclosed courtyard, horse number, one entry, two entrance, three entrances...... Wait. There are hand-copying verandahs in the courtyard to connect all places, covering a huge area.

It can be said that the large courtyard house is not something that ordinary magnates can live in, and it requires huge financial resources to support the large courtyard, otherwise it would not be called a mansion gate.

In front of Qin Xuebing, it was the gate of the mansion.

The location of the mansion door is the most essential part of the entire dragon vein branch, it can be said that there is no place in this area where the feng shui can be compared, and it is even no exaggeration to say that the feng shui of Cuiyuxuan is the residue compared to this set of mansion doors.

A treasure of feng shui like this is bound to connect with the earth's qi and is full of vitality, which is the most suitable for cultivation. Qin Xuebing believed that if he could practice in such a Feng Shui treasure place, the speed of cultivating Qi Refining would definitely increase by several grades.

However, the blame here is that the feng shui here is too good, which is diametrically opposed to what it shows. Qin Xuebing visually inspected it, he was about three hundred meters away from the gate of the mansion, but he could still sense the strong yin evil qi in it, this level of yin evil was not something that ordinary people could resist at all, even if a strong man lived in it, he would definitely get seriously ill within a month.

"Feng Shui treasure land, become feng shui dead land." The corners of Qin Xuebing's mouth curled slightly, he was sure that this set of courtyard houses was empty, it was impossible for ordinary people to live in it for a long time, as long as he had money, he would definitely be able to buy it.

As for Feng Shui Treasure Land turning into a dead land, he doesn't care at all, the treasure land can become a dead land, and he has a way to turn the dead land into a treasure land.

At this time, Roger had just come over, Qin Xuebing hurriedly stepped forward to say hello, and then pointed to the door of the mansion and asked, "Brother Luo, do you know that mansion?" ”

"People who often come here know that this house shocked everyone at the beginning."

Roger smiled: "Five years ago, an overseas Chinese returned to China to settle down, and he fell in love with this house, spent 400 million to buy it, and spent 50 million yuan to renovate, but he moved out after not living for a month, which made many people fall through their glasses, and laughed and scolded this overseas Chinese for having money and nowhere to make it." ”

"Four hundred million?" Qin Xuebing secretly said that he wanted to buy this house, but even if he sold him, he couldn't get 400 million.

So, he asked relentlessly: "Since the overseas Chinese can't live anymore, they must take action, right?" Will the price be cheaper? ”

"It's cheap, don't even think about it, housing prices have begun to rise again in recent years, and this set of mansions is definitely more than 400 million. But because of this, this house has not been sold so far. ”

ps: After the two shifts, Ming'er continued, and the phase master calculated another hexagram, there will be good luck this week, hehe.
