Splendid peasant girl busy farming

Master Tang Yu
Luo Xingchen stood in front of the scroll, carefully watching the scene depicted on it.

Can't help but be amazed.

In terms of knowledge, he has seen enough buildings in different forms.

The most resplendent and resplendent is the palace of Daqi.

And when it comes to the delicacy, ingenuity, and beauty of the gardens, I am afraid that there are not many gardens in this world that are better than the new Peacock Villa.

At least among the gardens he has seen, there is almost no one that surpasses it.

"Which master architect painted this picture?"

The master architects of this era are often also masters of painting.

Although the buildings in this picture scroll have reached the pinnacle state, the picture scroll itself is also an extremely rare work of art.

Luo Xingchen noticed that there was no signature on the scroll, and he couldn't recognize that it was the work of any famous artist in the world.

"This is the work of Master Tang Yu." Xian Yuqin didn't make a fool of himself, but told the story honestly.

"Is that master Tang Yu who is a master of poetry, calligraphy and painting? He can actually design garden buildings?" Luo Xingchen's eyes flashed with astonishment.

As for that master Tang Yu, he had indeed heard of his name.

Tang Yu, born in the Tang family, a family in the south of the Yangtze River, is a well-known talent in the south of the Yangtze River. He is free and unrestrained in life. It is rumored that those fireworks girls are often crazy about his poems.

But most of the rumors are about his romantic affairs, but it has never been heard that he can design buildings.

"It's him. One year ago, Master Tang Yu came to Peacock Villa and sat down with the owner for a few days. After that, he drew a picture for the owner and gave him a design drawing, which contained detailed information. Architectural methods, material geometry, are clearly written."

Fresh in poultry.

"Master Tang Yu, are you still at Peacock Villa?" Luo Xingchen asked, he was also very curious about Master Tang Yu.

A while ago, when he was planning to go to Jiangnan in the future, he had already planned to visit Tang Yu when he went to Jiangnan.

From the perspective of age, Tang Yu is currently in his early forties, which is the most mature age.

But time is not forgiving, it is better to see it sooner, so as not to leave regrets in the future.

"He left a long time ago and returned to Jiangnan last year." Xian Yuqin shook his head.

"Unfortunately, it would be great if I didn't leave." Luo Xingchen felt a little regretful.

"Luo Xingchen, do you want to see Master Tang Yu?" Xian Yuqin suddenly looked at Luo Xingchen and asked.

"Yes, I really want to meet him. I believe that many people would like to meet him." Luo Xingchen said.

"I'm afraid you will be disappointed." Xian Yuqin said seriously.

"Why are you disappointed? Could it be that Master Tang Yu has gained a false reputation?" Luo Xingchen asked doubtfully.

"That's not true, it's just that he's... very strange." Xian Yuqin hesitated for a moment, feeling a little at a loss as to where to start.

"What kind of weird method?"

"Let me tell you something. Once in the evening, Master Tang Yu was sitting on a wicker chair, looking at the bamboo forest in the distance. At first, he was half-closed, as if he had fallen asleep. Suddenly, he jumped up. Cry out loud, shake your tears with your fingers, like this..."

Xian Yuqin imitated Master Tang Yu's movements, wiped his fingers on his eyes, and flung them away.

"This is really weird." Zhu Suiliang was stunned.

"Does he often do this?" Luo Xingchen asked.

"That's right, it's commonplace. Then, one day, he suddenly left without saying goodbye." Xian Yuqin blinked and said.

"He's gone, so has your new Peacock Villa been built yet?" Luo Xingchen asked.

"According to Master Tang Yu, it will take at least four or five years to complete the construction of the new Peacock Villa, but it has not been completed now..."

Xian Yuqin said: "The main reason is the lack of money. The owner said that he needs to raise money to come out this time. Without money, the new Peacock Villa cannot be built."

"Impossible? Your Peacock Villa should be very rich, and it is impossible to be short of money." Luo Xingchen asked doubtfully.

Peacock Villa not only has a respected status in the Jianghu, but they are also big landlords nearby, and many lands belong to Peacock Villa, which is rarely controlled by the family.

"The new Peacock Villa, Master Tang Yu said, the cost is around 2000 million taels of silver. Our Peacock Villa really doesn't have that much money." Xian Yuqin was a little embarrassed.

"2000 million taels... Daqi's annual treasury income is only tens of millions. This 2000 million is really scary."

Until now, Luo Xingchen found that he had underestimated the cost of the new Peacock Villa.

This kind of garden is no less expensive than the royal garden.

It takes decades of repairs to build a royal garden.

Ningyuan Pavilion, a royal garden, is located on the outskirts of the city. It has been repaired by several generations of emperors. It is estimated that it cost tens of millions of taels of silver to complete, and it also requires a huge maintenance fee every year.

Even the royal family can't maintain many gardens, let alone a private person like the owner of Peacock Villa.

Luo Xingchen's heart suddenly moved.

Why does the owner of Peacock Villa appreciate his mother?
Maybe this is the answer.

After all, starting from scratch, becoming a real rich man, and still being a woman, these are enough to make the owner of Peacock Villa who is in urgent need of a lot of money respect.

"Does the owner have a place to raise money?" Luo Xingchen asked.

"The head of the Chalcedony Sect promised our owner that as long as Dong Wenjun can be driven away this time, he will help raise money for the owner." Xian Yuqin pursed his lips and said.

"It turns out that the owner came here for this."

Luo Xingchen originally thought that the owner of the Peacock Villa came here because of his friendship with the owner of the Chalcedony Sect, but now he finds out that it was for money in the end.

Loving money is not a bad thing.

What's scary is the kind of person who doesn't want anything but accepts death.

Since the owner of the Peacock Villa needs something, then the next step will be easy.

"Luo Xingchen, I'm already full, and I'm about to say goodbye."

Xian Yuqin stood up.

The parrot finally stopped screaming, and now it was squatting on Xian Yuqin's shoulder, looking like a general returning from victory.

"Miss Qin, go back and say hello to the owner for me." Luo Xingchen said with a smile.

"Of course, Parrot, let's go."

Xian Yuqin greeted him and walked away with the parrot.

Luo Xingchen glanced at the table she was at...

Good guy!
The fruit cakes placed on it were all swept away.

It turns out that Xian Yuqin is a foodie. He looks thin and weak on the surface, but it is just an illusion.

"Brothers, Chalcedony Gate is going to bleed a lot this time. The owner of Peacock Villa came here this time. Chalcedony Gate didn't give enough money, so I'm afraid he won't be satisfied... To build a new Peacock Villa, more than 2000 million yuan is needed. Two, this is still a conservative estimate, if there are all kinds of rare items, antique calligraphy and paintings inside, more than 2000 million may not be enough."

Luo Xingchen smiled slightly.

Zhu Suiliang wiped his eyes. To be honest, he heard such a large number as unreal.

The most he has ever seen is only at the level of 10 taels, and he dare not even think about more.
