In late March, the first batch of official rental houses in Chang'an City were completed, about 15,000 rooms, located in the west of the city, the quality of the houses is good, they are all brick houses, no rain leakage, the roof is bright and bright, so that the room light is good, and the room is longer, a room is almost 30 square meters, and it can be divided into two.

At the same time, more than 2,000 official houses in the old city of Chang'an of the Han Dynasty have also been built, the official houses are located in the westernmost part of the old city, close to the Weiyang Palace, a large piece of land here is enough to have thousands of acres, it was originally the forbidden garden of the Weiyang Palace, there are no residents, it is in disrepair all the year round, overgrown with weeds, rats and snakes become nests, as long as the land is leveled, you can directly build a house, without involving demolition, so it can be built within two months.

However, there were more than 7,000 low-income households around the official residence, so they became the first batch of people to move into the official rental house.

Whether the people of the old city are willing to move back to Chang'an City or not, there is no need to consider this, their rent is 400 wen per month, the rooms are small, dilapidated, and all of them are mud thatched houses, while the rent of Chang'an official rental houses is 500 per month, and the lease contract can be signed for up to ten years, so you don't have to worry about being evicted.

Many people have gone to see the house, the people of the old city are sensational, the official rental houses are not only brick houses, but also large rooms, bright light, one room is equivalent to two rooms here, and the rent is only 100 wen expensive, it is too much to cost.

What's more, after the curfew was lifted in Chang'an, the night market was very prosperous, which was very good for the employment of the people at the bottom, but living in the old city could not enjoy the advantages of the night market, the city gate was still closed, they had to leave Chang'an City as soon as it was dark, and lost a lot of opportunities to make money, and many guys bartenders lived in the old city, which also seriously affected the business of shops and restaurants.

The proprietors had to let the guys and bartenders stay in the store at night, which was inconvenient for everyone.

It is these willingness, the people of the old city have been eager to see through the official rental housing, every household has been registered, the conditions are good, the population is large, if you want to stay in Chang'an, you will consider renting a small courtyard, and it is enough for people with a small population to rent a house, and many people want to rent a façade to do small business.

On this morning, the low-floor residents around the official building began to deliver house numbers and keys door-to-door, they were the first batch, and the government had already allocated a paper bag for each family.

Many families have already packed up, just waiting for this moment to come, they got the house number and keys, so they impatiently rented ox carts, loaded pots and pans, took their wives and children, and went to their new homes without any nostalgia, many families have not even seen what their new homes are like, so they are anxious to move.

In the afternoon, the official rental house at the root of the city wall in the west of the city was full of people, the excitement was abnormal, 8,000 households got the new house, every household was cleaning up the room, many people living in Chang'an City also came to see the excitement, many people were moved, such a large room is only 500 wen a month, to rent in the workshop, at least to be consistent money.

But things are relative, although the rent is cheap, but this will definitely become a slum, in the future, living at the base of the city wall, always feel inferior, although living in the fang is twice as expensive, but the face is better.

In fact, some people at the bottom of Chang'an moved to the old city, and some rented houses in Chang'an City, which is largely a matter of mentality.

The houses of the people at the bottom of Chang'an are much the same, wooden windows and wooden doors, there are wooden boards on the windows, as soon as the doors and windows are closed, the room is pitch black, and the lights must be lit, but there are bright tiles made of oiled paper on the roof, and you can barely pass in a little light during the day, generally the side of the house is facing the street, and the front row is facing the back wall of the front row, so that you can open the door and window during the day.

Of course, many small grocery stores opened in a hurry, and many families would buy things at this time, nails, curtains, stools, pots and bowls, bedding, etc., business was booming, the wells were crowded with people, and many housewives had already started to cook at the door of the new house.

At the same time that the people moved out of the old city one after another, hundreds of middle- and lower-level officials also came to the old city together, and the official residence had been completed and would soon be distributed.

The official house is relative to the official house, the area is less than three acres, divided into half an acre, one acre, one acre and a half, two acres, two acres and a half acre, five kinds, the materials used are the same, the difference is only the size of the area.

Where the nine grades or above, the five grades below the officials can be assigned to their own official house, the highest official is the sixth grade, can be divided into two and a half acres of official house, compared with the officials from the fifth grade, the area is half an acre worse, but the name is different, this is the house, the house is a house, the house has a gate, there is a side door, there is a heavy eaves door, there is a drum stone, there is a stone beast, there is a small garden behind.

And there is nothing, there is no door, just two courtyard doors, this is the gap between the six products and the five products, is the most difficult threshold for officials in the past dynasties, the five products below are called Lang officials, and the five products above are doctors, and the vast majority of officials have reached the top of the six products in their lives.

Several six-grade officials from the Ministry of War entered a two-and-a-half-acre armor house, and an official pushed the courtyard door and said: "This courtyard door is too thin, can you pay for it yourself and add a simple door?" ”

The official next to him shook his head and said: "It is estimated that it is enough, the gate represents the status level, you see that this courtyard gate is a little bigger than the courtyard gate of the two-acre house just now." ”

Another official sighed and said: "This is called the official house, not the official house, if you want to live in the official house, you can go to the state and county to be an official, Zheng Liupin can do the governor's history, the official residence is at least ten acres, and here is only two and a half acres, don't think too much." ”

At first, the official said, "If the door can't be moved, what about the facilities inside, can you renovate it yourself?" ”

"It is estimated that the backyard is OK, there is a small garden covering an area of half an acre behind the official residence, we heard that there is a backyard here, take a look!"

There are only two entrances to the official house, the front is the courtyard, the front and both sides are all kinds of rooms, kitchen, warehouse, stable, lower room, etc., there is a passage in the middle, through the backyard, all around is also the same 'concave' shaped room, there are more than 20 rooms in the front and back, enough to live.

But the two-acre and two-and-a-half-acre official houses each brought a small courtyard of one and a half acres, and the three of them looked at the courtyard, which was surrounded by high walls, and the ground was muddy, and there was nothing left.

"You can run a small garden by yourself, dig a pond, put a rockery, build a small pavilion, plant plum bamboos around, and pave a stone path, which is also very elegant."

Another official sighed: "Unless you live all the time, if you are promoted and moved, the garden will be cheaper for others." ”

At this time, Cao Wannian walked in and said with a smile: "I built a garden myself, and if I move out, I will give a little compensation." ”

The three of them hurriedly saluted, Cao Wannian waved his hand and said with a smile: "I have asked Your Highness, and soon I will install a simple doorway for each family, and then install drum stones and steps, and put two small stone beasts, this is an additional fortification, and then, the backyard and backyard can be arranged according to your own preferences, although it is arbitrary, but the trees in the house cannot be cut down, which everyone must remember." ”

The three of them were overjoyed, and one of them asked, "May I ask Cao Lingtai, when will my family come over?" ”

"It's been a few days, come over with Princess Jin and the prince, and then officially draw lots tomorrow to decide on the official residence, I wish you all good luck."

On the morning of this day, a fleet of thousands of ships arrived at Fenglingdu, and this fleet was the moving team of hundreds of officials and families in Taiyuan, including Guo Song's wife and children and their belongings, and their luggage and belongings alone were loaded into nearly 100 boats.

In front of a passenger ship of 500 stones, Xue Tao sat in front of the window and chatted with Dugu Youlan.

"Eldest sister, do you think my sister-in-law will live with us?" Dugu Youlan asked.

These days, they have been talking about the eldest sister of the husband, the eldest sister of the husband who has been separated for decades has actually found it, which really makes them happy and worried, they are happy for the husband, after all, the reunion of relatives is a happy event worthy of special books, and the worry is that there is a fear of family conflicts, as the saying goes, the eldest sister is the mother, the husband has no mother since he was a child, will this eldest sister who is seven or eight years older than him perform the duties of a mother to a certain extent?

Xue Tao smiled and said: "In the letter to me from my husband, I said that my sister-in-law does not want to live in the palace, she likes to be lively, she likes places with a strong business atmosphere, she should live opposite Wen Yu's family, it seems that the house is not big, only three acres, and the mother and daughter live together." ”

"How's the little lady?" Dugu Youlan asked again.

"It's called Zhou Mingzhu, the name is good, the personality is the same as Zhang Yuer, very quiet, only fifteen years old, like music, I think it should be a very well-behaved little lady."

As he said this, someone on the shore shouted: "It's in the ditch!" ”

As hundreds of slender men shouted slogans and walked into the rocky mountain roads on both sides, the light dimmed, and the flanks were steep mountains, and the fleet began to enter the Tianbaoqu Canyon.
