After that, the gold-rimmed glasses behind him kept staring at Chen Zhi and Pang Wei with a look of disgust on his face, as if he was on the same plane as them because of the price reduction!!
Fat Wei wanted to take the gold-rimmed glasses to the bathroom and give him a lesson several times, but Chen Zhi stopped him!!!
The plane finally landed and they arrived at Shandong Airport.
That man with gold-rimmed glasses has been with them all the way, crossing the flight path and picking up their luggage. They met several times on the way, and he raised his neck proudly. That man with a chin and a face really looked like he deserved a beating!!!
After leaving the airport, they went directly to the car rental place.
Qufu is still some distance away from here, and they will have to change trains to get there.
Sure enough, as the legend said, there are many hired cars that go directly to Qufu, including shared cars and private cars. It seems that there are a lot of people traveling there every year~~
While waiting in the parking lot, the man wearing gold-rimmed glasses was also standing next to them. He saw that Chen Zhi and Pang Wei were also going to Qufu, and guessed that they were also going to the Confucius Temple.
He pushed up his glasses again and said with a sneer, "You idiot who is insulting your politeness~~"
Then he bent down, got into a black car, and was pulled away.
Chen Zhi saw that it was a special car. It should be privately owned. There was a special driver in the front. It seemed that the gold-rimmed glasses had some status. It was probably going to Qufu Confucius Temple.
They then got into a hired car...
It is not very far from here to Qufu. The driver is very familiar with the geography. In about half a day, they entered the hometown of Confucius, Qufu, Shandong.
After arriving in the local area, I found that, like all tourist attractions, there were many advertising agents for hotels and tour guides, most of whom were going to Confucius Mansion and Confucius Temple.
Chen Zhi had received news from Jian Di before. The little boy named Kong Shouren was now living in a small hotel next to Kong.
So there was no need for them to go to the Confucius Temple and go directly to the small hotel next to the Confucius Mansion.
Nowadays, Confucius Mansion and Confucius Temple seem to be two places, but in fact, in the beginning, they were both in the same place...
In the second year after Confucius's death (478 BC), people at that time built the hall where he lived as a temple of Confucius to worship him during the year.
At that time, the Confucius Temple only had three temple rooms, which contained the clothes, carriages, ritual utensils, etc. used by Confucius during his lifetime.
In the early days, the Confucius Temple was very simple and was connected with the residence. Confucius lived a frugal life and only had three former residences.
After his death, his descendants worshiped Confucius in their simple former residence and then built their residence according to the temple.
Later, as the status of Confucius and his descendants increased, the Confucius residence expanded day by day.
During the Cao and Wei Dynasties, "houses were built widely outside the temple to house scholars" and teaching lectures were set up.
By the end of the Northern Song Dynasty, the residences of the descendants of the Kong family had expanded to dozens of houses, which was quite large.
By the Jin Dynasty, the residences of descendants of Confucius had buildings such as "guest house", "guest place", "zhai hall", "zhai hall", "enqing hall", "shuanggui hall" and so on in the east of the temple.
until now,
The entire Confucius Mansion covers an area of about 7.4 hectares and has 480 ancient buildings. It is divided into nine courtyards, front and rear, and three roads in the middle, east and west.
The east road is Dongxue, where Yiguantang, Mu'en Hall, Kong's family temple and workshops were built.
The West Road is the Western School, with Hongcaixuan, Zhongshu Hall, Anhuai Hall and Flower Hall, etc.
The main part of the Confucius Mansion is on the middle road, with the government office in the front, three halls and six halls, the inner house in the back, the upper room in the front, the front and back halls, the annex building, six rooms in the back, etc., and finally the garden.
The mansion is lined with pavilions and halls, long corridors and winding paths, complicated and confusing, carved beams and painted buildings, magnificent.
The mansion contains the famous Confucian archives and a large number of cultural relics, which are of immeasurable value.
It is the largest and most luxurious feudal bureaucratic aristocratic mansion in China and is known as "the first in the world".
It is said that when Kong Shoucheng, the head of the Confucius family, got married in 1936, he made a relatively comprehensive renovation of the Confucius Mansion.
He painted all the pavilions and pavilions in the painting, but later he went to Taiwan and never had the chance to return to the mainland.
Nowadays, the Confucius Mansion has long lost its residential function, and most of it has been turned into an open tourist attraction.
So according to Jian Di's report, those direct descendants of the Kong family who came back from Taiwan to worship their ancestors all lived in a small hotel next to the Kong Mansion...
The driver followed Chen Zhi's address and finally found the small hotel. The door number there was very inconspicuous, and no one came out to greet him.
The driver didn’t understand at the time and said why stay in such an unknown small hotel. Not to mention whether it was comfortable inside or not, such places were often shady hotels that would charge foreign tourists a lot of money. It was better to go with him to a hotel with good reputation.
Popular hotel.
But Chen Zhi doesn't think so...
They had done some research before and found out that this small hotel had just opened. It turned out to be a dilapidated two-story western-style building. Because it was so old, no one knew who the owner was.
But a few years ago, a hotel was suddenly built, and additional buildings were added...
This small private hotel is very close to Confucius Mansion. Although it has a unique location, its business is not doing well and the price is exorbitantly high.
So there are almost no outside guests~~
There is a small building in front of the hotel, which is old and dilapidated. There are some simple standard rooms and suites inside.
There is a large back building behind the hotel. That building is newly built and the decoration inside is very good, but it is never open to the public.
But every year when the Confucius Temple gathers to pay tribute, the Confucius family from Taiwan will live in it, so at that time Chen Zhi thought that this place was definitely extraordinary...
When the driver saw that they were unwilling to change places, he didn't bother to talk to them, took the money and left.
After Chen Zhi and the others got off the car, they went directly into the hotel lobby.
When the waiter saw them, his attitude was very lazy. He didn't seem to welcome the guests in. He just asked lazily, what kind of room do you want to stay?
He also said that there are only two types of rooms: suites and standard rooms. Most of them are not cleaned and there is no hot water. It is unbearable to stay there.
Chen Zhi asked about the price, and it turned out to be ridiculously expensive. Most people would turn around and leave after coming in.
Chen Zhi, on the other hand, asked for a suite and stayed in this small hotel on the grounds that everything was already full.
After moving in, they realized why the hotel's business was so bad.
Not only was the room unclean, the bedding on the bed had not been changed in a lifetime, the curtains were half missing, there was a thin layer of dust everywhere, and there was no hot water in the kettle.
It is incompatible with this famous tourist attraction...
Fortunately, there is a very good network here and the speed is very fast.
Chen Zhi followed Chen Yiyang's instructions and placed the computer and several equipment in the room, and then placed the transmitting instrument on the window sill, facing the mansion behind.
