This majestic and solemn gate tower did not appear to be in a hurry. Gu Xuan applauded repeatedly: "Amazing! My king really has a good vision. This big project has not been entrusted to the wrong person."
The soul-capturing mirror in He Lingchuan's arms snorted: "Flattery!"
To be able to become an official franchiser, this guy is really very talented.
Everyone clapped along and wondered how He Lingchuan did it. But He Lingchuan only said that the skilled craftsmen sent by the king were too good.
As he said that, he stood on the inside of the gatehouse, where there was a whole stone wall covered with red cloth.
The so-called unveiling ceremony meant that he, You Rongzhi and several other high-ranking officials and prominent families took off the red cloth together.
The cloth falls, revealing the painted wall underneath.
The gatehouse is nine feet wide, and the matching wall painting is also six feet wide. This is not pangolin or blue ashlar, but a large piece of raw jadeite. The stone skin is dark brown mixed with gray and white, and is rough and uneven in some places.
Quartz clusters also grew.
Its overall shape is like a giant whale covered with barnacles lying on the bottom of the sea.
There are many windows on the original stone, revealing the crystal clear, jelly-like jadeite inside!
When the sunlight shines in, it's like there's an endless sea of green hidden in the window, which is mysterious no matter how you look at it.
This kind of green is bottomless, making people worry that lake or sea monsters will rush out from underneath at any time.
Jing Yuanxun couldn't help but applaud: "Okay, okay, Brother He, you are so lazy and lazy."
Who paints walls without buying large pieces of jade and carving them carefully?
He Lingchuan directly bought a large piece of raw jadeite, and as long as the shape was good, and then polished it into a bright window, the color, level, and brightness would be perfect.
This kind of simple beauty becomes more and more attractive the more you look at it.
The key is to save trouble.
Moreover, it lies in a good position and is exposed to sunlight all day long.
He Lingchuan laughed loudly: "The king asked me to build the gate tower within seven days! Alas, time is tight and the task is heavy, so I can only make haste."
Everyone refused to give in, but they heard him say again: "I bought this with the money I earned on the day of the birthday ceremony."
Yao Wang Shoudian, he won several bets, especially his battle with He Yang, which netted him a lot of money.
It just so happened that the Chibao Sale started selling this huge piece of jadeite again. No one was interested in it because it was too big. It had been passed up twice and the price dropped again and again. He Lingchuan had an idea and simply bought it as a home.
The mural on the main entrance.
It took six yellow-turbaned warriors just to transport and secure this big treasure to the low hill.
When everyone walked around the painted wall and passed through the gate, they were all stunned and couldn't help bursting into laughter:
There is nothing behind the door.
Such a majestic, imposing, eye-catching, and intimidating gate is empty behind the painted wall, with nothing covered.
There was no time at all.
Only two sections of the road leading to other parts of the garden have been paved. What should have been springs and ponds in the future are now still mud pits. The newly arrived seedlings have been put aside and have not had time to be planted.
There are stones, wood, and debris everywhere. Except for the newly paved roads, there is no way to get off.
The craftsmen were so busy and clanking that they didn't even bother to look up at them.
He Lingchuan sighed: "It's funny, the time is really too short."
Everyone came together to understand and be considerate.
It has only been more than half a month since the land parcel was approved for Youhu Villa, and there were still obstacles in the process from the construction office.
Besides, the officials and nobles present today all have gardens at home, and they know that the garden setting and the construction of the Feixie Quan Terrace are time-consuming and labor-intensive. Some families even took several years to repair them.
Everyone was deeply shocked that He Xiao was able to build the gate tower first and built it so grandly.
This also gives everyone confidence that the monastery in the villa should be just around the corner.
Look at that glorious and majestic gate! Look at those golden gate stones given by the emperor! This is an important project instructed by King Yao and endorsed by King Yao. The whole process is protected by the prestige of the royal family.
Everyone's hearts suddenly felt stable and at ease.
Besides, this big, messy and noisy construction site is directly opposite Huajia Island. Qingyang Supervisor can see it every day, how troublesome it is!
Then, He Lingchuan invited everyone to move to visit the lakeside monastery reserved by Prince Qing's Mansion.
The time was still short, so the monastery must not have been built well, but the basic framework had been set up. He Lingchuan explained everything to everyone, including the layout, material selection, ingredients, furnishings... very meticulously and seriously.
The mirror in his arms chuckled: "Look at this cake, it's big and round."
After walking half a circle around the monastery, you will reach the shore of the lake.
Youhu Villa diverts the lake water into the garden. The monastery in Qingwang Mansion is only ten feet away from the water. Standing on the second floor, you can overlook the lush island opposite.
Huajia Island.
The buildings on the island often show a corner, and from everyone's perspective, there are green guards patrolling back and forth.
"It's really clear to see Huajia Island from here!" He had a very good eyesight, and he could see a tea bowl on the table in the small building opposite, and he could clearly see the sparrow beak handle on the bowl lid.
I don’t know who said: “Hey, it’s pink.”
The color of the tea bowl is pink and the glaze is clear. No need to guess, its owner is Qingyang Jianguo.
If you hadn't taken a trip here today, who would have known that the resolute Supervisor used a pink tea bowl?
The two sides are so close that there is no privacy.
Of course, this is the reason why Prince Qing’s Mansion bought the first row of monasteries near the lake:
Its mission is to make the prisoner feel uncomfortable.
The progress of Qingwangfu Jingshe is less than one-fifth, but the prototype and framework have been erected. Not to mention its political function, as a suburban vacation mansion, it is quite passable.
He Lingchuan smiled and said: "When Youhu Villa is completed, everyone present will be neighbors."
When everyone heard this, they all laughed.
But I smiled and felt that this sentence had a profound meaning.
Yes, Youhu Villa also has a strong social function. From now on, this place will be the base of the royalists. If you want to discuss something, you only need to gather people for a meeting, and you don't even have to leave the door of the Villa.
On the other hand, how much first-hand information would officials and nobles who did not live here miss?
Because there is a big BOSS on the other side, the people living in this villa are united and exclusive, both geographically and psychologically.
It's very scary to think about it, very scary.
Seeing that the guests were deep in thought, He Lingchuan clapped his hands and said, "My lords, it's hard to come to the countryside for a long trip. Let's have a light meal at our 'Cyclamen' at noon."
It would be rude to let a guest go back hungry. After all, so many officials came, so he couldn't find a way to keep them for a while?
Youhu Villa still has some good land that has not been dug up. They are all by the lake, with green willows hanging down and flowers blooming. He Lingchuan asked the management team to quickly build a two-story bamboo and wood restaurant here, calling it "Xianke".
