Building walls, covering tiles, laying bluestone slabs and blue bricks is very fast, but there are many carpenters such as doors and windows, and it is very slow to do. It takes two or three days to carve a door or window. It needs to be polished after carving it.

If you were to rely on the original craftsmen, it would probably be the end of the year.

Han Xiufeng didn't want to always live in the yard rented by Ao Tongchen, Shuji, Hanlin Academy, so he simply gave Fugui another 100 taels of silver, so that the old carpenters found by Shandong people and Shandong people would measure the size and go to demolish the court with Fugui.

The prisoners' doors and windows of the officials' houses were searched, and even the bluestone slabs in several yards were removed.

It is easy to dismantle, but there are some considerations to how to dismantle it.

You can't just tear down one person. If you really remove all the doors and windows, the person in charge of the door will not be able to explain to the Ministry of Internal Affairs. If the Ministry of Internal Affairs pursues the matter, the Chongqing Guild Hall will not be separated, so you can only remove three or five rooms in a yard.

.A dozen yards were demolished, and finally all the doors and windows that were missing in the guild hall were collected.

From the day I started working for the guild, I always looked for opportunities to ask Pan Er to ask him to work in the guild after the guild was built, and could he give him some food?

Thinking that after the guild is built, repairs will be necessary, and the old carpenter's craftsmanship is indeed good, Pan Eryi said Han Xiufeng agreed. Unexpectedly, Shandong native Huo Chenxing also wanted to find an errand for his youngest son and beg every day.

After the guild was built, no one could do anything without a job, and Han Xiufeng agreed immediately.

Since then, Shandong people and old carpenters have treated the work of the guild as their own home work. They get up at dawn to work, eat a few bites when they are hungry, and then do it every day. They have to finish work until dark.

After half a month, I repaired dozens of doors and windows of different styles to a new look.

After pulling the doors and windows of the guild hall to install it, they helped to do other work. They didn't want to be lazy even if they didn't stop. They could only do it with their teeth and follow it. As soon as they worked on October 28, the guild hall finally had a little

Look!

A dilapidated Sanheyuan turned into an antique two-entry courtyard in just half a year. Han Xiufeng was really moved. Yesterday, he was walking around the hall, inside and out,

I stayed until very late before going back. I accompanied Ao Tongchen and He Heng to the club together early in the morning.

As soon as the two walked to the alley, the editor of the Hanlin Academy Ji Yunfei, the Ministry of Revenue Member Wang Zhirong, and the Ministry of Justice Jiang Haoxuan were also picked up by Pan Er.

Everyone exchanged greetings and walked to the entrance of the guild hall together.

Compared with the dilapidated old courtyards on both sides of the north and south, the scenery here is really beautiful. Jiang Haoxuan stopped and looked up at the hollow brick carvings such as "Heavenly Officials' Blessings", "Magu Birthday" and "Lu Ming Wutong" on it.

The gatehouse exclaimed: "Blue bricks and black tiles, high walls and deep locks, majestic and solemn, full of charm!"

Ji Yunfei stroked the white rectangular stone drum carved with the "Dark Eight Immortals" pattern on the left side of the south gate, then looked up at the stone drum carved with the "Lion Playing Ball" pattern on the opposite side, and asked curiously: "Zhixing,

This pair of stone drums cost a lot of money, right?”

Han Xiufeng naturally would not say that the pair of stone drums were demolished by the prisoner's house. While greeting everyone in, he smiled and said, "I really can't remember this clearly. I have to go in and look for the detailed accounts."

"I just asked casually," Ji Yunfei didn't rush into it, but looked at the bluestone slabs about seven or eight feet long at the door and sighed sincerely: "Even the stone slabs are laid at the door, you can see that you have spent it.

What a great thought.”

Ao Tongchen stroked the gate and murmured: "It's hard to believe that such a large yard was built in half a year and was built so well. The ancestral hall in my hometown is only so big. According to the elders, seven or eight were built.

It's only completed in 2018."

"It's really not easy. Ambition makes you worry and you are burdened."

"You two are so serious, I have spent a lot of effort, and I can't talk about suffering. After all, this is the capital. As long as there is money and nothing can be done, no matter what kind of craftsman you can find, you can buy it all no matter what materials you are doing.

.” Han Xiufeng smiled slightly, raised his arm and invited everyone to walk in.

Wang Zhirong is a job in the Ministry of Revenue. He often deals with the Ministry of Works and the Ministry of Internal Affairs. He crosses the threshold and smiles: "Ask, others don't know that I know. If you really say this, what the Ministry of Works and the Ministry of Internal Affairs have created.

The palaces and temples will not be able to finish work in a few years.”

"Mr. Wang, this is different. The guild hall is the home of our fellow Chongqing people in the capital. We naturally have to pay attention to the affairs of our own home."

"Yes, yes, yes, that's what you say."

Ji Yunfei didn't care about praising Han Xiufeng anymore, because his attention was attracted by the tall brick wall in front of him. On it was engraved with a pair of lifelike cranes standing proudly on the pine tree with exquisite carvings.

It's breathtaking.

Ao Tongchen, Jiang Haoxuan and others were also amazed. Seeing that they stroked the brick carvings on the screen wall again, Han Xiufeng couldn't help but smile and said, "Master Ji, Master Ao, don't ask me how much money this screen wall costs, I want to know

These will be taken back to see the details of your account.”

"Okay, okay, today I will only watch and not talk about money. It's too vulgar to talk about money!"

Bypassing the screen wall, my eyes suddenly became clear.

A huge yard with green bricks on the ground and two houses with carved beams and painted pillars on both sides. Han Xiufeng bowed and smiled and said, "Mr. Ji, Mr. Ao, Mr. Jiang, Wenchang Pavilion on the left and the Village Sage Temple on the right.

,The building has been built, but there is no plaque yet. Not only does Wenchang Pavilion and the Township Fairy Temple have not, but there are no houses inside. I will also ask a few masters to write ink and enjoy a few paintings of ink later. I can go to find a craftsman

Engraved.”

"It's both a plea and a reward, ambition, when did you become so disgusting?"

"Yes, Zhixing. I just said that the guild hall is the home of us fellow Chongqing people in the capital. Can we ask for your own affairs? Besides, this is a plaque. If you can write a plaque for the guild hall, we will be lucky in our three lives."

"Master Ji, I not only ask you to write a few plaques, but also ask you to make some couplets. You can see them, inside and out, bare and nothing."

"No need to ask for this, these are all my business."

"Brother Bowen, it's easy to write plaques, but this couplet is not simple. I am only a little bit unfamiliar and can only make a pair of them, and I have to let me think about it carefully."

"Don't worry, I have to think about it."

The entire guild hall extends left and right with an east-west central axis. The main hall is very large and long. Two exquisite screens are divided into two main halls and east-west flower halls. Both flower halls have doors leading into the interior and walk into the interior.

The courtyard has another view. Four two-story Hui-style wooden buildings are surrounded by a courtyard. There is a rockery in the center of the courtyard. There is a pavilion beside the rockery. A small pond is dug between the pavilion and the rockery, and the well is behind the rockery.

, which is convenient for water withdrawal and does not hinder the viewing.

There are twenty Zhuangzi rooms upstairs and downstairs, with a wooden ladder on each side of the north and south. Each room has two beds, a desk, and a wind-resistant lamp is placed on the desk.

The ground on the first floor is covered with bluestone slabs, and the second floor is full of thick and sturdy shirt and wooden floors. Ji Yunfei walked on it, Ao Tongxian listened downstairs and found that the footsteps were very small. If the candidates lived downstairs, they would not be able to

Disturbed by the sound of walking upstairs.
Chapter completed!
