[109] The Zhou Mansion was completed
[On the shelves on the 1st of next month, I hope everyone will have more cheers] After taking a shower, Zhou Yi just whistled out, but saw a black shadow blocking the door, and after a closer look, it was Zhou Min, her face was so gloomy that she was dripping water, looking weird.
Zhou Yi was stunned and asked, "Who bullied you?" ”
"That Zhang Zhong came when you took a shower just now." Zhou Min said angrily.
Zhou Yi said casually while sorting out his clothes: "It's coming, it's not like you haven't seen it, by the way, where is he now?" ”
"I blasted it away."
“…… Well, I just wanted to ask him what he came to me for. Zhou Yi was very helpless. Did Min take the wrong medicine or forgot to take the medicine today?
Zhou Min said: "He wants to marry his sister to you." ”
"What are you kidding...... Zhou Yi reacted very much when he said the first word, but when he got to the back, his voice became smaller and quieter.
Zhou Min sneered: "Hmph, I think you have that idea, right?" ”
"That's not the case, you see, I put other people's ...... Touched, right, so, they want me to be responsible......"
After Zhou Yi's words were finished, Zhou Min took Zhou Yi's hand and pushed it in from his chest. Two balls of white flowers, smooth and tender soft meat, sandwiched Zhou Yi's hand, indescribably comfortable.
"Okay, now that you've touched me too, should you also be responsible for me?" Zhou Min stared at Zhou Yi's eyes tightly and said.
Zhou Yi pulled out his hand, turned his head, and said, "You are my sister." ”
"We are not related by blood."
"I'm going to have to go find land to build a house."
"Now everybody's had dinner."
"Then I'll go to sleep."
“……”
Lying on the bed, Zhou Yi couldn't fall asleep over and over, what happened in the past two days made him deeply understand what it means to be popular, even if he made some money before, no one complimented him, and many of them still felt that Zhou Yi's identity was not as noble as his own. Now it's okay, Zhou Yi has won the champion, and he is suddenly a scholar class, and the farmers and businessmen below are all coming over to give gifts and invite them to eat, and even in a small restaurant that Zhou Yi went to that he didn't even remember, there were signs like the champion dining place.
If something like this happened today, he couldn't figure it out, what was the situation with Zhou Min this time? Even if there is no blood relationship, it's also his own sister, right, and he can't do it to his sister anymore.
"Hey, it looks like I'm either going to leave this place, or I'm going to get married, or they'll be annoyed to death."
I don't know how long it took to fall asleep at night, and when I woke up the next morning, I felt that my head was groggy, and it wasn't until Zhou Min sent porridge over to eat it.
Zhou Yi didn't know who he said about buying land to build an ancestral house, as soon as he went out, there was already a person from the county government waiting outside, and when he saw him come out, he greeted him, nodded and said: "Champion Lang, the county lord is invited." ”
"Oh? What did he tell me to do? Zhou Yi was puzzled, and then waved his hand and beckoned this person to go in the direction of the county government together.
When I arrived at the county office, the originally deserted yamen was somehow very lively today, and as far as the eye could see, there were not only acquaintances like Su Jiaming, Wu Shan, and Zhang Zhong, but also many people who didn't seem to have met.
As soon as Zhou Yi came in, everyone rushed to salute Zhou Yi first, and it was suddenly a mess, but Su Jiaming coughed, and everyone came to their senses and returned to their positions with a little embarrassment.
"What's going on, what's going on?" Zhou Yi was suddenly a little confused, this group set is almost here, or what?
Su Jiaming said with a smile: "You don't know, everyone heard that you are going to build an ancestral house, which is a great thing, so they all came spontaneously." And after our research, we decided that this is not just about building the ancestral home of you, the champion. can produce the champion, which shows that our Qingshen County is an outstanding person. Therefore, everyone unanimously decided that this ancestral mansion should not only be built in line with your identity as the champion, but also show the momentum of our Qingshen County. ”
"There are so many famous halls." Zhou Yi couldn't help but sigh, he really didn't think about it so much, people say that the glory of the ancestors, now that he is the champion, then get a room to worship the ancestors, this is also a Chinese tradition, is a basis for our bloodline continuation and roots, this has a relationship with Qingshen County?
Later, he thought that the meaning of everyone vying to build this ancestral shrine was estimated to be similar to the meaning of the people below to build a shrine for Wei Zhongxian.
"What kind of name is this, this is as it should be, although I am the parent official of Qingshen County, but I am not a person from this county, and now this Qingshen County has a champion, not only the glory of Qingshen County, but also my glory. At that time, I studied hard for nearly 20 years before I won a jinshi, but I didn't expect that this Qingshen County would produce a champion who was less than 20 years old, which was also my wish. Su Jiaming hurriedly said.
Zhou Yi was a businessman in his last life, and the goal of a businessman is profit, in line with the ultimate idea that being cheap and not taking advantage of is a bastard, Zhou Yi finally couldn't resist everyone's enthusiasm, and set aside a large area in the most prosperous residential area of Qingshen County to build a new Zhou Mansion and the ancestral home of the Zhou family.
Although he has just been admitted to the champion and does not even have an official position, this does not hinder everyone's enthusiasm for patting on the back, and they have already filled the vacancies in the Hanlin Academy, plus they are only sixteen years old, can this achievement be small in the future? If you don't hurry up now, you will still have your turn to pat yourself when you think about it later?
The address was so happily decided, and Zhou Yi still had to pay a little bit in terms of expenses, so that if he traced it down in the future, he could confidently say that he paid the expenses - although it only cost him ten yuan in total.
Subsequently, Su Jiaming found some craftsmen who specialized in designing houses and ancestral shrines for him. Although Zhou Yi was completely blind in this ancestral shrine, seeing that Zhou Sheng was discussing with them with great interest, there was no need for him to get involved. On the residential side, Zhou Yi designed a complete underfloor heating system, which is much more complex than the big chimneys sold outside. It consists of a complete set of underground pipes and a boiler room dedicated to the production of heat. It can be said that once this system is operational, the entire Zhou family house will be warm inside and out.
He would never dare to play like this in the future, the fuel consumption is too great, but he is not afraid here, think about it, he is now a coal boss, and he still has the final say on how much coal he burns?
Zhou Yi's design has won everyone's praise, and the design of the ancestral hall is nearing completion, and the construction is about to begin.
But Zhou Yi proposed that he should be the chief designer, and he had the final say on how to build and what materials to use.
Although this request was not very satisfactory, no one would object, so Zhou Yi, a layman, began to command a group of expert craftsmen to start building houses.
The first is to dig the foundation, which is very important. Ancient houses did not take this issue very seriously, and most of them used rammed earth directly on the ground, or paved with stones as foundations. It is precisely because of this that all the houses are much higher than the ground, especially in the palace, and there are dozens of steps to enter the house, which has made Zhou Yi unable to complain.
Although everyone thinks that building a high house can reflect a noble status, Zhou Yi did not compromise at all in the matter of digging the foundation.
Dozens of workers began to dig the foundation according to the drawings, and the dug gullies were filled with well-fitting bluestone blocks, so that even if there was an earthquake, there was no need to be afraid.
After digging the foundation, it is necessary to build a concrete plane, and now that there is no concrete, bluestone slabs and lime are used instead.
After laying this plane, all kinds of pipes are laid, which are used to transport heat in winter. In addition, it can keep a certain distance from the ground when it is underneath, which also helps to dissipate heat.
The pipes are made of wooden floors designed by Zhou Yi, and the reason why they are designed this way is because these pipes are made of iron sheets, which cannot withstand the pressure of stones. Second, the thermal insulation ability of wood flooring is relatively weak, and it is easier to feel the heat in the pipe.
Zhou Yi didn't care about it after the above, he always felt that the wooden houses with carved beams and paintings were the most beautiful, and those houses built of reinforced concrete were like prisons, completely identical, only used for use, and had no connotation and beauty at all.
In just one month, a large mansion second only to the county government in Qingshen County rose from the ground, this house is close to the county government street, although it is an alley, it is the most prosperous street that turns less than ten zhang. But it's quiet and it's an absolute prime location.
On the day the house was built, Zhou Sheng was as happy as a child, and he went back and forth from home to the new house several times a day. The gilded plaques of "Zhou Mansion" and "Zhou Ancestral Temple" written by Zhou Yi are hung at their respective main gates, and the sun shines brightly, and they suddenly look brilliant. A pair of large stone lions at the door are vivid and extraordinary. The door inlaid with copper rivets is two feet high, and it is a lot of effort to open it.
In the process of moving, Zhou Sheng only took the tablet invited from the previous teahouse on the tablet, respectfully went to the ancestral shrine to put it away, chattered for a while, and then put on incense and lit the lantern.
Zhou Yi moved all the things that were placed in the basement of the previous mansion to a place called Gewuyuan in the new mansion, which was a small independent courtyard in Zhou's mansion, and only he could enter.
After moving, it was a feast for three days, but anyone who had worked hard to build a new house, even passing by today, would be able to eat.
