Seven hundred and sixtieth chapters homeowners have a house
It was late March and the first batch of official rental houses in Chang'an City were completed. There were about 15,000 units. They were located in the west of the city. The houses were of good quality and were made of bricks and tiles. They did not leak from the rain and had bright tiles on the roofs.
The light in the room is good, and the room is relatively long. A room is almost thirty square meters, and it can be divided into two.
At the same time, the construction of more than 2,000 official residences in the old city of Chang'an in the Han Dynasty was also completed. The official residences are located in the west of the old city, close to Weiyang Palace. There is a large area of land here covering thousands of acres. It was originally the forbidden garden of Weiyang Palace.
There is no one living there, it has been in disrepair all year round, it is overgrown with weeds, and there are nests of rats and snakes. As long as the land is leveled, a house can be built directly without demolition, so it can be built within two months.
However, there were more than 7,000 lower-class households surrounding the official residence, so they became the first batch of people to move into official rental housing.
There is no need to consider whether the people in the old city are willing to move back to Chang'an City. Their rent is 400 yuan per room per month. The rooms are small and shabby, and they are all mud and thatched houses, while the official rental houses in Chang'an rent 500 yuan per room per month.
Yes, the lease contract can be signed every ten years at most, so you don’t have to worry about being evicted.
Many people went to look at the houses. The people in the old city were shocked. Not only were the government-rented houses made of bricks, but the rooms were large and bright. One room was equivalent to two here, and the rent was only a hundred dollars more expensive.
Wen, it’s too cost-effective.
More importantly, after the curfew was lifted in Chang'an, the night market flourished, which was very beneficial to the employment of the lower class people. However, if you live in the old city, you cannot enjoy the advantages of the night market. The city gate is still closed at midnight, so they have to leave as soon as it gets dark.
Chang'an City has lost many opportunities to make money, and many bartenders and bartenders live in the old city, which has seriously affected the business of shops and restaurants.
The proprietors had to let the waiters and bartenders stay in the store at night, which was inconvenient for everyone.
It is because of these willingness that the people in the old city are eager to rent official houses. Every household has registered. Those who want to stay in Chang'an with good conditions and a large population will consider renting a small courtyard, while those with a small population will rent a house.
It's enough, and there are still many people who want to rent a storefront to do small business.
This morning, the lower-floor residents around the official residence began to deliver room numbers and keys door to door. They were the first batch. The government had already distributed them, each with a paper bag.
Many families have already packed up and are waiting for this moment to arrive. After getting the house number and keys, they eagerly rented an oxcart, loaded up the pots and pans, took their wives and children with them, and headed for their new home without any hesitation.
Many people move anxiously without even seeing what their new home looks like.
In the afternoon, the government-rented housing at the base of the city wall in the west of the city was bustling with people. Eight thousand households had received their new houses and every household was cleaning up their rooms. Many people living in Chang'an City also came to watch the excitement. Many people were moved.
, such a large room only costs 500 cash a month, so renting it in a square requires at least a lot of money.
But everything is relative. Although the rent is cheap, this place will definitely become a slum. In the future, living at the base of the city wall will always make you feel inferior. Living in a square is twice as expensive, but it is better in terms of appearance.
In fact, some of the lower-class people in Chang'an moved to the old city, and some rented houses in Chang'an City. To a large extent, it was a matter of mentality. People in Chang'an would obviously look at them differently if they said they lived in the old city. Therefore, the people living in the old city
Most of them consider practicality and don't care much about face.
The houses of the lower class people in Chang'an are all similar, with wooden windows, wooden doors, and wooden boards on the windows. Once the doors and windows are closed, the room becomes dark and must be lit. However, there are clear tiles made of oil paper on the roof, which can barely let in some light during the day.
, usually the side of the house faces the street, and the front faces the back wall of the house in the front row, so that the doors and windows can be opened during the day.
Of course, many small grocery stores opened in a hurry. At this time, many people would buy things, such as nails, curtains, benches, pots and bowls, bedding, etc. Business was booming, and the wells were crowded with people. Many housewives had begun to shop at the wells.
There was a fire cooking at the door of the new house.
While the people were moving out of the old city, hundreds of middle- and lower-level officials also came to the old city. The official residences have been completed and will be allocated soon.
Compared with official residences, official residences have an area of less than three acres and are divided into five types: half an acre, one acre, one and a half acres, two acres, and two and a half acres. The materials used are the same, and the only difference is the size.
All officials above the ninth rank and below the fifth rank can be assigned their own official residence. The highest official is the sixth rank, and can be allocated an official residence of two and a half acres. Compared with officials from the lower rank of the fifth rank, the area is half less.
Acres, but the names are different. This is a house, and that is a house. The house has a front door, a side door, a double eaves door, a drum stone, a stone beast, and a small garden at the back.
There is nothing in the house, and there is no door, just two courtyard doors. This is the gap between the sixth rank and the fifth rank. It is the most difficult threshold for officials in the past dynasties to cross. Those below the fifth rank are called Langguan, and above the fifth rank are officials.
Well, the vast majority of officials reach the top within a lifetime of reaching the sixth rank.
Several sixth-rank officials from the Ministry of War entered a house covering an area of two and a half acres. An official pushed the courtyard door and said: "This courtyard door is too thin. Can you add a simple door head at your own expense?"
The official next to him shook his head and said, "I guess it's awkward. The gate represents the status level. You see, this gate is a little bigger than the gate of the two-acre house just now."
Another official sighed and said: "This is called an official residence, not an official residence. If you want to live in an official residence, you can go to the state and county to be an official. If you are a sixth-rank official, you can be a governor. The official residence must be at least ten acres. This is only two and a half acres.
Don't think too much."
At first the official said: "If the door cannot be moved, what about the facilities inside? Can you modify it yourself?"
"I guess the backyard is fine. There is a small garden covering an area of half an acre behind the official residence. We heard there is a backyard here, let's check it out!"
There are only two entrances to the official residences. The front is the courtyard, and the front and both sides are various rooms, kitchens, warehouses, stables, servants' rooms, etc. There is an aisle in the middle, passing through it is the backyard, and the surroundings are also "concave"
There are more than twenty rooms in the Z-shaped room, which is enough to live in.
However, the two-acre and two-and-a-half-acre official residences each came with a small courtyard of half an acre. The three of them looked at the courtyard and saw that it was surrounded by high walls, with dirt on the ground and nothing left.
"Here you can run a small garden by yourself, dig a pond, put a rockery, and build a small pavilion. It will be surrounded by plums and bamboos and paved with stone paths. It will be very elegant."
Another official sighed: "Unless you stay here forever, if you get promoted and move, the garden will be cheaper for others."
At this time, Cao Wannian walked in and said with a smile: "I built the garden myself. If I move it, I will give you some compensation."
The three of them saluted hurriedly, and Cao Wannian waved his hand and said with a smile: "I have asked Your Highness for your instructions. I will soon install a simple doorway for each house, then install drum stones and steps, and put two small stone beasts. This is additional fortification.
Then, everyone can decorate the backyard and backyard according to their own preferences. No matter how you like, the trees in the house cannot be cut down, so everyone should remember this."
The three of them were overjoyed, and one of them asked: "Cao Lingtai, when will my family come over?"
"It's only been a few days. I'm here with Princess Jin and the Crown Prince, and then we will officially draw lots tomorrow to decide on the official residence. I wish you all good luck."
.........
That morning, a fleet of thousands of ships arrived at Fenglingdu. This fleet was the moving team of hundreds of officials and their families in Taiyuan, including Guo Song's wife and children, their belongings, and all their luggage.
Nearly a hundred ships were loaded with items.
In a 500-stone passenger ship ahead, Xue Tao was sitting in front of the window chatting with Dugu Youlan.
"Sister, do you think my sister-in-law will live with us?" Dugu Youlan asked.
These days they have been talking about their husband's eldest sister. The eldest sister who has been missing for decades has actually been found. They are really happy and worried at the same time. They are happy for their husbands. After all, the reunion of relatives is a happy event worthy of special mention. Worry
Is it because they are afraid of family conflicts? As the saying goes, the eldest sister is the mother, and the husband has not had a mother since he was a child. Will the eldest sister who is seven or eight years older than him perform the duties of a mother to a certain extent?
Xue Tao smiled and said: "My husband said in the letter to me that my sister-in-law does not want to live in the palace. She likes liveliness and places with a strong commercial atmosphere. She should live opposite Wen Yu's family. It seems that the house is not big.
, there are only three acres, and the mother and daughter live together."
"How are you, little lady?" Dugu Youlan asked again.
"My name is Zhou Mingzhu. She has a good name. Her personality is the same as Zhang Yu'er's. She is very quiet. She is only fifteen years old. She likes music. I think she should be a very well-behaved little lady."
Just as he was talking about this, someone on the shore shouted: "Enter the canal!"
As hundreds of trackers shouted slogans and walked into the rocky mountain roads on both sides, the light dimmed and there were steep mountains on both sides. The fleet began to enter the Tianbaoqu Canyon.
