Officials don't build offices, and customers don't build shops.
Local government offices are different from those in Beijing. Most officials serve a three-year term and will be transferred to other state capitals upon expiration, so there are no government offices.
The hotel refers to an inn. Guests come and go and leave after having sex. Although the hotel is dilapidated, the owner rarely repairs it.
It is also considered a "rule" for an official not to build a government office. The government office is built so well for what it is used for. It is not his own. It is used for official business and it looks so good. Those who don't know think that the money will be used for the people. Come to build a government office.
As a result, the Yongcheng magistrate's office was just the opposite. The office was built in a splendid way.
Han You has been in Beijing for so long, but he has never seen such an impressive government office.
The two stone lions at the door look as if they have mutated directly after drinking the Fukushima nuclear wastewater. They are one meter high and are cut from one large stone. They are lifelike. They squat there as if they are about to pounce at any time to choose someone to devour. What's awesome is that these two stone lions also have two wings.
Along the central axis, it was built from south to north, with gates, ceremonial gates, screen walls, and six rooms, all of which are missing. The main building is large, with two, three, and three halls in total. There are many of them, and there are also wing rooms for administration.
There is no courtyard wall surrounding the government office, let alone railings. It is surrounded by bluestones and has a continuous courtyard with trees, flowers, bonsais, and a pond. You can see everything at a glance. If it weren't for the golden plaque reading "Yong Ya" , those who didn’t know thought they had arrived at the Zhao family’s separation.
If it weren't for the fear of exposing his identity, Han You would have really wanted to get off the carriage and go to You Mingtang to ask him what the idiot was thinking. Once someone from the Ministry of Etiquette or the Ministry of Work found out about this government office, he would be able to get it right in the court. , this is not a matter of exceeding the limit. If you build a government office that looks like a sales office, isn't this looking for death?
When the carriage passed the government office, Han You turned around and looked back.
Lao Liu, who was leading the way on horseback, turned back and said with a smile: "Sir, what do you think? Our Yongcheng government office must be very impressive."
Han You nodded, he was quite impressive. He hoped that You Mingtang would be as impressive after being involved.
After leaving the government office for a while, Han You was confused again.
All the way to the west, there are all carriages and horses, all work materials, and all people doing work, and there is constant traffic.
Lao Liu slowed down and saw Han You sticking his head out, and explained: "The west of the city was originally a residential area. In order to prepare for the Three Seasons Villa, the prefect moved all the people to the south of the city."
Han You's pupils shrank suddenly: "Forced demolition?"
"I don't know what you mean, sir, what is forced demolition?"
Jiang Zhui, who was driving, frowned and asked, "Isn't the south of the city where dignitaries live?"
"Hey, we are moving to the place where the dignitaries live. If they all move to the north of the city, the unruly people in the north of the city will not be happy."
Jiang Zhui was confused, and so was Han You.
This is equivalent to Han You planning to build a large-scale construction project in the west of the city, expropriating the people's land, and the people have no place to go. Then he will move all the land to the south of the city and all the land to Tailongfang for the people, leaving the common people, princes, nobles, and court adults. Living together is completely nonsense, isn't it?
"You Yongcheng..." Han You couldn't hold it back in the end: "Don't you have any aristocratic families? Aren't those aristocratic families living in the south of the city, so there's no trouble?"
"Noisy?"
Lao Liu smiled proudly: "Our prefect is the biggest bully... No, it's the aristocratic family. Who is making trouble? The prefect swallowed up their land, robbed their wives, robbed their money, demolished their houses, who Dare to make trouble."
Han You: "..."
The other friends and old friends were silent, even Old Master Duan who had stretched out his legs in the Taiqian Hall in the south and across the north couldn't even express his feelings.
Zhou Tong shouted stupidly: "Isn't this a fucking robber?"
Lao Liu laughed happily: "The prefect said, he is not a robber, he is a fucking bandit. Robbers only rob goods, bandits even take their lives."
Han You winked at Lu Baichuan, and Dachuan'er climbed into the carriage.
"Who is You Mingtang's relationship in Beijing?"
"No."
Today, Da Chuan'er played the role of a person who didn't know anything. He shook his head: "I haven't heard of it."
"It doesn't matter in Jingzhong, how dare he do this?"
"No."
Han You buried his head in thought and couldn't remember which mansion in Beijing or which adult had the surname You.
The carriage stopped quickly, and Lao Liu didn't say anything. He speeded up and shouted something.
Jiang Zhui turned around and said, "We must have arrived. Is this... a disaster?"
"Disaster?"
Han You got off the carriage, took a closer look, and shouted, "Holy shit."
Looking around, there is a pile of debris, just like a tornado destroying a parking lot.
There are countless construction materials piled outside, and endless "ruins" are visible dozens of feet away.
This is indeed the residence of the common people, that is, residential buildings, but these residential buildings have all been "pushed" and flattened, just like the disaster areas after the earthquake.
Han You took out the yellow paper leaflet in his sleeve, looked at the leaflet, and then at the "disaster area". His mind went blank. Where is the Three Seasons Villa?
A man ran up from a distance, wearing a Confucian robe, tall and thick, mainly black. He looked a bit like a fitness version of Song Xiaobao, with a smile on his face and a red cloth hat.
When this guy came over, Han You was afraid that he would slap him in the face and make him feel more at ease.
"Hey, eh, eh, eh, eh."
The man said "Hey" four times when he opened his mouth, and then said with the courtesy of a scholar: "Brother, my name is Master You Ben, what do you call this young master?"
"My name is Han...Han Wushuang."
Han You returned the greeting: "This young master is..."
"My father, You Mingtang."
Master You Ben was very enthusiastic. After looking at Han You and others, he couldn't wait to ask: "Brother Han, have you really seen the Four Seasons Villa in the capital?"
"Um."
Han You showed the yellow paper: "No, this is obviously false propaganda. This is the Three Seasons Villa, or the ruins of the villa that was blasted. Where is the mountain, where is the villa?"
"Just wait for what the young master says." Master You Ben laughed and said, "Follow me brother."
After finishing speaking, Master You Ben shook his head, as if using Rejoice, and took the lead.
Han You and others didn't know why, so they had no choice but to follow behind. With the ruins like this, there was no place for the carriage to stand.
After walking for about a quarter of an hour, everyone suddenly became enlightened.
They saw Three Seasons Villa.
There is a tall archway with the words "Three Seasons Villa" written on it.
Behind the archway, there are buildings that look newly built, with a big sign in front of them. There is a cloud shelter, a bathhouse, a large theater, and a racecourse.
Han You was messed up in the wind, and the expression on his face became increasingly ugly.
The friends all laughed in anger.
Dongshi's imitation is nothing more than that. The building is very new and the decoration is very magnificent. The problem is that it is completely different from the original one.
The authentic Four Seasons Villa is divided into different areas after entering the villa. Looking at this place, it looks like a big collection, with various "buildings" built together. After that, it looks like a post-war ruins next to it, all in ruins.
Master You Ben pinched his waist and said with a proud face: "How about it? Compared with the Four Seasons Villa in the capital, even if it is not as good as it is, it still has bones."
"You are paralyzed!" Han You scolded directly: "Are you teasing your father and us?"
Han You was about to reveal his identity. If someone from out of town really came, the Three Seasons Villa that came first was imitated by the Four Seasons Villa. If he came to Beijing again, how could he still go to the Four Seasons Villa? This would be a way to destroy his signature!
"Master, what do you mean?"
Master You Ben stepped on a big stone and pointed in a circle: "It was built not long ago and is a bit shabby, but now the Three Seasons Villa can be visited. In time, the entire west of the city will be covered with Villas. That will be the day when the Villa will be completed. I promised you it would be fine when it comes, wonderful, wonderful, wonderful."
Han You was stunned and dumbfounded: "The entire west side of the city... needs to be built?!"
"Yes, my father said that Yongcheng is counting on Sanji Villa to lead the people in the city to become rich."
