George, Alexander, Jon, Brown and his parents came to Hong Kong to settle down in the 70s and grew up here, but they studied in a university in the UK. They are familiar with both sides and can speak simple Chinese.

His family was originally in the harness business, but due to the impact of the Hong Kong property market, the business has declined. Coupled with the 97 issue, his parents and elder brother have returned to the UK to develop.

Because he is the second son, he cannot inherit the family business, so he has been working outside, and has worked in finance, real estate, lottery and hotel industries.It is also because of David Wang, whom the hotel industry knows.

The biggest conceptual difference between foreigners and Chinese is that they do not boycott part-time jobs. They do not have the ideology of the Chinese who would rather be a chicken head than an oxtail. almost spirit.

For them, inheriting a business and working as a part-time job is a career, and they all need to work hard to achieve success and glory.And foreign business rules also guarantee this. Many celebrities in reality are actually wage earners, but their grades and reputation are no worse than anyone else.

including social status.This is unimaginable on our side, so don't always compare and talk about it. Things in the general environment cannot be changed at will, and there is no comparison at all.

It's like when people go up, they follow the up call to be in line with international standards, and when they go down, they don't follow the down call to meet the national conditions.Where should I go to reason?

Follow others to learn but be beaten to death without learning the connotation, the whole up and down inside and outside are completely different, this is the national condition!The national condition is to see who benefits.

They keep talking about the common people, but in fact all the regulations really have nothing to do with the common people.

……

On October [-]th, Xiaowei and Chen Hui met George, Alexander, Jon, and Brown who came back from Hong Kong with David Wang in the reception room of the front yard.

George has a standard English style flowing parted hair, shaved blue chin, thick eyebrows, sharp eyes, and a tall nose that looks a little arrogant.

The two sides shook hands and sat down on the sofa.

Compared with Americans who have no history, the British have a more splendid history, and they still follow the system of the Noble House of Elders until now, so George was shocked by the ancient royal courtyard from the moment he entered the courtyard.

"Can I take a tour? Here." Before getting to the point, George proposed the idea of ​​visiting.

"Yes." Xiaowei thought for a while, and said to George: "However, because one of my elders lives in it, according to the regulations, you need to sign a confidentiality agreement and copy your identity information. Photograph.

Of course, it's just the inner courtyard, you can do whatever you want here. "

David Wang acted as an interpreter. Although George himself could communicate in simple Chinese, he had to translate when it came to serious matters, so as not to cause misunderstandings.

George raised his eyebrows: "Elder?"

David Wang said: "Yes, the status of the chairman's elder is equivalent to the cabinet minister of your country. Big gun."

"Wow." George exclaimed excitedly: "Yes, I want to visit, it is really unimaginable, I am too surprised, please forgive my faux pas."

After taking a non-disclosure agreement and asking George to sign his name and press his fingerprints, Xiaowei called Wang Jiwei over, and the three of them accompanied David Wang and George to visit the yard.

"This is the soldier who is in charge of guarding the yard. We will be accompanied by him for a tour. Please don't make any actions or behaviors that cause him to misunderstand." Xiaowei introduced Wang Jiwei to George through Wang Dawei in a serious manner.

With a stern face, Wang Jiwei carefully checked the items on the two of them, and then stayed by the side without saying a word.

Exquisite and beautiful Chaoshou verandah, complex and dazzling thousand-story eaves, exquisitely carved vertical flower doors, tall red walls and green tiles with angled eaves, alarming bird bells, fine brushwork, kissing animals with different postures, hanging animals and cutting animals, correct The solemn main house and the old trees in the spacious courtyard arouse George's admiration from time to time.

Shi Li accompanied George and David Wang to introduce him.

This girl is a student of architecture at university, so she came here to be Dong Zhu by accident, but her studies are quite solid, and after she came here, she pondered inside and outside the yard, and now the two of them are bluffing. I was stunned for a moment.

The restoration of this courtyard cost a lot of money, and it was completely restored according to the regulations at that time. The titles of the Qing Dynasty were more complicated. There were two systems of clan and outer chambers. Beizi is the lowest title of a prince.

Then there are the Dukes of the State, the Dukes of the Fuguo, and the eighth-fen Guogong and the Fuguogong, and then the fourth-level generals of the Zhenguo Fuguo Fengguo Fengen, which belong to the royal clan.

The minister's outer room is the prince's uncle, the male five nobles, plus two levels of captains of light vehicles and cavalry, and two levels of cavalry captains of Yun and En.

The imperial family is from the fourth grade to the super grade, and the minister's chamber is from the seventh grade to the super grade.

The Minister's Outroom Chaopin is only at the Duke level, and his status is below Beizi, theoretically at the same level as the country.In fact, because the Duke and the Duke of the State are all clan relatives, the actual status of the Duke must be inferior, which is roughly equivalent to less than eight points.

The courtyard that Xiaowei bought is the Junwang Mansion, which belongs to the Chaopinjue Mansion. The regulations are quite high, and many places are the same as those in the Forbidden City.

In the Qing Dynasty, only the mansions of princes and county kings could be called palaces, and the lower ones could only be called mansions, but the buildings from Baylor to the upper mansions could use the things in the palace to a limited extent.It will not work if the shellfish goes down, it can only be imitated, and must be downgraded.

Dunjun Palace.

Of course, it's only a part, if it's the whole government, it will be big.

The king of Dunjun, Aixinjueluo Yin?, Kangxi's tenth son, supported the eighth son when the nine sons seized the throne, but the fourth son came to power, and he was miserable. He was detained under an excuse to seize the title. It was not released until the second year of Qianlong.

It was Yinhu, the elder brother whom he supported, who convicted him.

Chen Hui searched for people, but he searched for information. He found these old things in the imperial archives of the Forbidden City. After confirming that the owner of the house also found the blueprints, the restoration was completed.

In the Qing Dynasty, the mansions above the Duke of Beizi were all archived, with completed drawings.

Now the five-entry house in my hand is just the east road of the original Wangfu, counted as an auxiliary house, the main house and garden have long since disappeared.According to regulations, the main residence of the Wangfu can only enter the courtyard seven times.

Chen Hui once wanted to buy the area on the west side of the yard and restore it as a garden, but Xiaowei refused.That was a little too frustrating.

Under the explanation of the little tour guide Shi Li, it took more than half an hour to visit and appreciate the whole yard.

When he heard that this was just a side room of the original palace and not the main house, George opened his mouth wide, saying it was inconceivable.

"Zhang, I'm yearning for the ancient Chinese culture. Should I buy such a house?"
