Xu Jiaorong first went to see Chen Jianchou, that is, to talk with the person involved.
Chen Jianqiu was not able to buy a mansion in Taishangfang like Qi Xuansu. Taishangfang is the first one in Yujing, and there are other seven such as Haotianfang, Nanhuafang, Xuanyuanfang, Guangchengfang, Chongxufang, and Tongxufang.
Xuanfang and Donglingfang are also called Shangbafang.
It is said that birds of a feather flock together, and these seven squares also gather different people. For example, Xuanyuan Square is dominated by people from the Daxuan imperial clan, and Nanhua Square is dominated by people from Jiutang. Naturally, most of the higher-ups live there.
In Taishangfang or Xuandu.
Chen Jianqiu is now also a member of Jiutang, so he lives temporarily in Nanhuafang. Anyway, these properties are owned by Tianjitang, and any Taoist priest can only rent them but cannot actually own them. The so-called purchase of properties by Qi Xuansu and others is essentially just
The lease is only for a hundred years, and after expiration, you have priority to renew the lease.
In a situation like Chen Jianqiu's, Beichen Hall would basically provide the bulk of the money, subsidize a little more, and temporarily rent it for a few years. There is no situation where there is no house. Tianji Hall still has a plan, and allots people according to the establishment quota of each hall.
Houses with different numbers in each hall will be allocated twice by each hall.
Ordinary newcomers, such as ninth-grade Taoist priests and eighth-grade Taoist priests, are basically divided into single rooms. According to Western units, it can be about twenty to thirty square meters.
There is no way, the local Taoist government is easy to talk to. No matter you are a ninth-grade Taoist priest or an eighth-grade Taoist priest, you can always have a decent house with a yard. It is also the standard of a wealthy family. It’s just that every inch of land in Yujing is expensive.
There are so many big people and big houses, and they can only suffer the hardships of the people below them.
If you want to live in Yujing, you have to suffer this crime. If you don't want to suffer this crime, it's not impossible, just go to the local Taoist government, such as Luosuozhou Taofu, which is a vast area with few people. As long as you have the patience to build it slowly, or have the money
That's fine. Even if one person lives in a big house of more than ten acres, no one will say anything, but the Taoist priests are not happy and keep running to Yujing. They would rather "suffer" in Yujing than "enjoy blessings" in Luo Suozhou.
”. .??.
This is already considered good. If you are an ordinary Taoist or a low-level spiritual official, you will have to share a room with others, like a pigeon cage.
It is possible for one person to live in such a single room, but it is a bit difficult to get married. Especially those who share a room with others. They may have been with the person they love for many years, but still cannot get married. The most pressing problem is
Hope to get a house.
In order to divide the houses, many stories of joys and sorrows arose.
Of course, when you reach the level of a high-quality Taoist priest or manager, you have considerable autonomy. If you don't want to be crowded in Nanhuafang, and you have a lot of money, you can go to Zhongbafang or Xiabafang to look for a house with a yard.
For example, Taoist Cui from Duzhitang does not live in Nanhuafang, but in Haichanfang. Although it is a bit far away from Xuandu and requires a lot of time on the road, she usually lives comfortably.
Speaking of which, Qi Xuansu still took advantage of Zhou Mengyao. After all, he was an immortal. He had deliberately pretended to be poor, or was he not a big deal?
I can imagine the life of a low-level Taoist priest. He rented the house for twenty years as soon as he made a move, and then gave Qi Xuansu a place to stay.
Without this house, Qi Xuansu would have to live in a single room in Nanhuafang. In this case, Zhang Yuelu would not be able to come to see him in person. After all, the so-called single room must be a lot of people living in a courtyard. How many eyes are watching, how can it be better?
In the alleys of Chanfang, Shanghai, no one could be seen except Taoist Cui.
Today's Chen Jianqiu is naturally not as good as Qi Xuansu, who first arrived in Yujing. When he came to Yujing, he was already a fourth-grade Taoist priest, and his position was the chief secretary of Beichen Hall. In front of real people, he was the secretary, and others called him
When he calls him Secretary Chen, he doesn't pick this point. Once he walks out of this door, he represents the chief. It's a bit inappropriate to call him Secretary Chen again.
The people of Beichen Hall dared to impede Qi Xuansu on some key matters, but they would not shame Chen Jianchou on such a trivial matter. In any case, Chen Jianchou also has a second adoptive mother. Counting up, he belongs to
Landa Zhenren's group, who hang out in Yujing, have no background, can they not offend others, or can they not offend others.
Beichen Tang is in charge of dividing the house. He has very good eyes, but he has to imitate others in wearing thick glasses. When talking, he pulls down the frame of the glasses and slides them from the bridge of the nose to the wings of the nose, exposing his eyes and looking over the frame.
The lintel looks at people.
As the saying goes, the county magistrate is not as good as the current one. Dividing houses is not a trivial matter for many people. There are many people begging him, so he takes up the air and always says things that make people angry and has no place to vent their anger, such as again
Wait, look, and study again. I understand your situation, but you also need to understand the difficulties in the hall. There is a fixed number of houses, and there are so many people who want houses. There are many people who are in more difficult circumstances than you.
Now, you'd better wait a moment. Or, I'll register it for you and then study it when the next group of meetings is held.
So if you want to find him, you must first go to Taiqing City and buy some decent gifts, such as fashionable New World specialties and Nanyang specialties. Only then can you start talking to him. If the gift is not what he wants,
He was thrown out on the spot, and he also said some noble and upright words. For those who didn't know, they thought he was an upright and upright person, and that he never engaged in sophistication.
Otherwise, just queue up slowly. You may not know which year you will queue up. After all, Yujing cannot be expanded and the housing supply is limited. There is no way to arrange a single-family residence for everyone. Many people have queued up for many years.
, we were allotted a house. Unless there is special instructions and instructions from above, we can do something special. If you are not willing, there are many acropolis around Yujing, such as Xuanhuang City and Wuxuan City. There are many big houses there.
As long as it's not too far away, you can live there.
There is a joke about this. Someone has been waiting for many years and finally can get a house. He is also in the hall.
After working for enough years, he was transferred to the local government. All those years of working in the team were in vain.
This person has worked in Beichen Hall for many years and is a senior director. He knows exactly who the people in the hall are, who has a real background and who is a paper tiger. As long as he doesn't offend those key figures, everything else doesn't matter.
If he offends someone, he will be offended. Therefore, over the years, people in Beichen Hall have been resentful of him, but his position is still as stable as Mount Tai.
Although Chen Jianchou was a junior, an eighth-generation disciple, but with this background, the chief did not dare to take any advantage. He took a bunch of keys and took the initiative to accompany Chen Jianchou to look at the houses one by one, leaving Chen Jianchou to just choose.
That’s it, whichever one you choose, you’ll be given the key on the spot.
Chen Jianqiu didn't ask for a big deal, he just chose an ordinary two-story building with an extra yard compared to Sun Yongfeng's residence. Not counting the yard, there are more than 140 rooms upstairs and downstairs.
The square meter is quite large. Beichen Hall also specially arranged a Taoist priest for Chen Jianchou to be responsible for his daily life.
After knowing the difficulties of these low-level Taoist priests, I understood what Qi Xuansu and Li Changge's big houses meant, and also why Zhang Yuelu was unwilling to get a dowry house.
Compared with ordinary people, Taoist priests are already the first class, but there is a huge difference between low-level Taoist priests and high-level Taoist priests.
Speaking of which, Xu Jiaorong really doesn't come to Nanhuafang very often. Although she has lived in Nanyang for a long time, she also has a residence in Yujing. It is located in Xuandu. It is allocated to Master Lan by the Taoist sect. Every Master Pingzhang has it. But
Except for visiting friends in Yujing or participating in discussions at Jinque, Master Landa rarely lives here. As a disciple, Xu Jiaorong stayed here when he came to Yujing. Speaking of which, it is not far from Zhang Yuelu's residence.
Don't talk about the differences between men and women, only small families worry about this. It takes a long time to walk from one end to the other in such a big house. It is divided into several roads and entrances, just like a shrunken square.
People who live in a small family naturally have to look down to see each other, and they have to queue up to go out, which is inconvenient. But in such a big house, it is not easy to meet unless you take the initiative to find it. If the couple fights and separates, you
I live in the east courtyard and I live in the west courtyard. I can't face each other for several years.
Take Qi Xuansu's house as an example. Even if Xiao Yin is making trouble in the back garden and riding the wind and waves on the small lake, as long as Qi Xuansu doesn't listen deliberately, the study in the front yard is still very quiet and he can study with peace of mind.
Xu Jiaorong usually goes to Xuandu or Taishangfang. Although Nanhuafang is also on the eighth floor, it is inevitably a bit crowded. There are so many single-family two-story buildings squeezed into a large courtyard, which is not as good as Sheji Palace.
A branch of the palace is large.
Chen Jianqiu's house is not very good either. It is said to have a yard, but it is still a bit cramped. There are many houses around it, blocking the view. Basically, you can't see anything but the sky above your head.
It's like sitting in a well and looking at the sky. The so-called patio is indeed worthy of its name. The house is also a bit old, thousands of years old.
Master Tian Babai, this house in Yujing is similar. It has changed a lot of owners. There are many people and few rooms. As soon as the front foot is moved out, there are people living in the back foot. There is no time to renovate and renovate.
Even the Grand Master lives in Zixiao Palace, which is also an old house.
Xu Jiaorong walked into Chen Jianqiu's house and looked around, with a bit of the pickiness of a mother who cares about her son, "Dangtang Yujing is nothing more than that. Speaking of which, it is not as good as the house we built in Nanyang. It is so spacious. That's it."
You don’t have to be so cramped in the Lion City.”
Chen Jianqiu accompanied Xu Jiaorong, "When you go out, you don't need to pay attention to these things."
"Going away." Xu Jiaorong nodded slightly, "You still remember where your home is, and you don't regard Yujing as your hometown. I think many people have seen the prosperity of Yujing and have already regarded Yujing as their hometown before they even took root in it.
A foreign country is my hometown. Now that I have mentioned this, I will say it directly. I believe Chief Qi has already asked what you mean."
Chen Jianchou asked Xu Jiaorong to sit in the living room, while he stood - how parents and children get along differs from person to person, some follow the rules, and some do not. There are many who do not follow the rules.
For example, Qiniang and Qi Xuansu, and Tantai Qiong and Zhang Yuelu, it is difficult to generalize.
The Taoist minister brought the tea, and Chen Jianchou took the tea and put it into Xu Jiaorong's hands personally.
Then Chen Jianchou replied, "The chief did ask me what I meant. I wonder what mother meant?"
Xu Jiaorong got straight to the point, "I have the same idea as Mr. Qi. Although Yujing is good, it is not my hometown, so I should go back to Nanyang. Besides, even if I go back to Nanyang, I may not return to Yujing one day. If...
…”
Xu Jiaorong paused for a moment, waved his hand, and the Taoist serving beside him immediately withdrew.
Xu Jiaorong then continued, "If Qi Zhenren can really enter the Zixiao Palace one day, you will return to Yujing sooner or later. Even if you cannot return to Yujing, you can still be like Wang Jiaohe in the past. He
The Wang family grew up with the fifth generation of great masters, so you can naturally follow the eighth generation of great masters."
Chen Jianqiu said softly, "I don't dare to ask for such an extravagant request, but it will be arranged by my mother and the chief."
Xu Jiaorong said, "Chief Qi proposed two ways, one is to be the assistant manager of the local branch, and the other is to be the deputy palace master. I prefer the deputy palace master."
"After all, our overseas Taoist government is a bit special. Taoist sects cannot trust the aristocratic families in Nanyang. In the early years, there was a so-called Nanyang United Taoist Salvation Society. Later, there was the Chen Shuhua Rebellion, which caused an uproar. Taoist sects cannot trust them even more. So in order to stabilize
, the deputy palace master can also be promoted to the second seat of the Taoist palace. There is precedent for this. As for you, although your surname is Chen, but after careful calculation, you are just a remote branch, and you are from the lineage of Landa Zhenren, so you can be regarded as a member of the Taoist sect.
And with Master Qi taking care of you, you should be able to achieve great development."
Chen Jianqiu said, "Then it depends on mother's opinion. I have no objection."
