vip chapter
Li Yuxin was overjoyed in her heart, but she turned her head away from Fang Mingyuan, feeling her face was burning slightly.I was so ashamed just now, why did I suddenly ask Fang Mingyuan for a room when my head got hot.What kind of thing is it to reserve a room for myself in Fang Mingyuan's house?But Fang Mingyuan's unhesitating agreement made her feel elated, and an indescribable joy filled her chest, making her feel as if she was about to float away.

Fang Mingyuan didn't think as much as Li Yuxin did, and his mind was still on the transformation of the ancient city.To protect the ancient city of Pingchuan, it is necessary to rejuvenate it and create economic benefits. As long as it can bring enough benefits to the county, you don't have to worry about it yourself, and you don't have to shout for protection at the top of your voice. The county government of Pingchuan County will also Make every effort to maintain the ancient city of Pingchuan and make it a permanent cash cow.People, in the final analysis, still live for profit. Only when something can bring benefits to people, people will take the initiative to protect it.

Although most of the residents of Pingchuan Ancient City have successfully moved out, there are still too many places that need to be remodeled.Don't talk, don't talk, as far as the roads in this city are concerned, a lot of effort has to be made to repair them
Most of the roads in the ancient city of Pingchuan are stone roads, and a small part is paved with blue bricks. After years of use, the wear and tear is very serious, and because it has not been repaired for a long time, large and small pits can be seen everywhere The depressions, and the drainage systems on both sides of the road are almost abandoned due to lack of renovation and repair for a long time.It can be said that Liu Yu and the others have a heavy workload.

Moreover, Fang Mingyuan also noticed that in the courtyards on both sides of the street, although most of the courtyards remained in their original state, there were also a large number of buildings built by residents themselves in many courtyards, which seemed out of place with the old buildings in the courtyard.And these must be removed.In the entire ancient city of Pingchuan, there must be only one unified style.

"Director Liu, follow here, where is that ancient building?" Fang Mingyuan pointed to an ancient building not far away.

Liu Yu glanced up and said with a smile, "That's the Confucian Temple in the ancient city."

"Confucian Temple? Is there a Martial Temple in this city?" Li Yuxin asked curiously.

"Yes, there is also the Wu Temple, but it is not on this street, but on the street over there. In this ancient city, there used to be the County Office, Confucian Temple, Bell Tower, Town God's Temple, Dragon King Temple, Wenchang Palace, Wu Temple, Wanghu Tower, etc. It is a historic site, but after so many years, and at the beginning of the century, Qinxi Province was also in turmoil, with constant wars, and many ancient buildings have collapsed. Now only the Confucian Temple, Wu Temple, Wanghu Building, Library Building and other ancient buildings remain. "Liu Yu pointed to the street in the south with regret on his face.

"Is Jiang Taigong or Guan Sheng enshrined in the Wu Temple?" Fang Mingyuan asked casually.

"Jiang Taigong? Isn't the martial sage Guan Gong?" Li Yuxin asked in surprise. This was the first time she had heard that Jiang Taigong was enshrined in the Wu Temple.

Liu Yu gave a thumbs up, and said with a look of admiration: "Young Master Fang, it seems that you are an expert at what you do, and this sentence has reached the key point."

"Ah?" Li Yuxin became even more curious, "Director Liu, is Jiang Taigong also enshrined in the Wu Temple?" She really didn't know that Jiang Taigong was still worshiped by the Wu Temple.

Although Liu Yu didn't know the background of this pretty little girl, but seeing her and Fang Mingyuan's close demeanor, he naturally didn't dare to neglect, and quickly smiled: "Girl, you don't know something, now everyone talks about Wu Shengren Come on, you will always think of Guan Gong, but from the history of Wu Temple, the earliest Wu sage was Jiang Taigong. At the beginning of Tang Gaozong’s Shangyuan, he was named Jiang Taigong as Wucheng King. In Kaiyuan, according to the Confucian Temple’s sacrificial system, the first sub-sage ten Therefore, this Wu Temple is also called Wucheng Temple, which is used to worship Jiang Taigong and the good generals of the past dynasties. The worship of Guan Gong was only popular in Jingzhou area at first. In the Tang Dynasty, it was only the Wucheng Temple. The imperial court of the Song Dynasty conferred titles on Guan Yu, and the faith of Emperor Guan entered the Buddhist and Taoist systems. In the Ming Dynasty, Guan Gong was conferred a lot of honors by the emperor at that time, such as "Guan Sheng Di Jun" and "Shen Wei Yuan Zhen Tian Zun" by the emperor at that time. , and Guan Yu's loyalty, righteousness, benevolence, and bravery were highly praised by the emperors of the Ming and Qing dynasties, so Zhu Yuanzhang later abolished the Wu Temple, and Jiang Taigong was enshrined in the Emperor's Temple. The Wu Temple for the main worship is juxtaposed with the Confucian Confucian Temple, and they are collectively called the Wenwu Temple. Later, everyone only knew that the Wu Sheng was Guan Gong, and all the Wu Temples around the country enshrined Guan Gong. But in our Wu Temple, the one dedicated Still Jiang Taigong"

Li Yuxin was dumbfounded when she heard this. It turns out that the history of this martial arts temple is like this. She always thought that the martial sage was Guan Gong. Thinking of this, she couldn't help pulling Fang Mingyuan's arm, and said excitedly: "Mingyuan, you are so amazing, you are so old! you know everything"

"Young Master Fang is really knowledgeable. Wu Sheng was originally Jiang Taigong, and even many archaeologists don't know about it." This flattery was easy, so Liu Yu naturally agreed a few times.Fang Mingyuan blushed a little. If he hadn't experienced the Internet boom in his previous life, he would have always thought that Wu Shengren was Guan Gong.

"Director Liu, why is Jiang Taigong still enshrined here?" Fang Mingyuan asked quickly. To be honest, he just asked casually. He didn't expect that Liu Yu really gave him a little surprise. From now on, maybe It is a highlight of the ancient city of Pingchuan.

"Although it is said that when Zhu Yuanzhang was the emperor, he abolished the Taigong's Wu Temple and moved the Taigong to the Emperor's Temple for worship, but our place was the heartland of the Western Zhou Dynasty, and it was also the place where the Taigong assisted King Wu to sweep the world, so people are very concerned about Guan Sheng. Therefore, when the Wu Temple was abolished in the Ming Dynasty, the people here changed the name of the Wu Temple to the outside world, and in the Qing Dynasty, when Guan Gong was respected as a martial saint, people would rather build another one in other places in the county. The Guan Gong Temple did not remove the statue of Tai Gong. Later, during the war in the Republic of China, the Guan Gong Temple was damaged, and everyone called it the Wu Temple.”

Fang Mingyuan nodded, half his life was humble, his talents were unrecognized, he wandered around, endured the burden, observed the situation, waited for the opportunity, fished in the Wei River, and finally met the Ming Lord. Jiang Taigong was not only the mastermind of King Wen Tushang of Zhou Dynasty, King Wu Keyin of Zhou Dynasty, and the founding father of Zhou Dynasty One of the founders of the state of Qi and the founder of Qi culture, he was also the grand teacher of the four emperors of Zhou Wenwang, Wuwang, Chengwang and Kangwang. He was also an outstanding strategist, military strategist and politician with a long history in ancient China Home.The classics of all dynasties respected his historical status. Confucianism, Taoism, law, military, and vertical and horizontal schools all recognized him as a figure in their own family, and was revered as "the master of a hundred schools". People who are famous all over the world.

"Then Director Liu, are there any other martial arts temples dedicated to the Grand Duke in Qinxi Province?"

Liu Yu thought for a while, shook his head and said: "As far as I know, before the period of the Republic of China, and even in the early days of the founding of the People's Republic of China, there were still many temples dedicated to the Grand Duke in Western Qin Province. But up to now, I am afraid that the only one in the ancient city of Pingchuan that I know of still exists. Well, of course, even if it survived the war, it was completely destroyed in the turbulent ten years. about there."

Fang Mingyuan couldn't help heaving a long sigh. The ten-year catastrophe not only damaged China's economy and culture, but also a huge catastrophe for many cultural relics and historic sites in the territory. In his previous life, he heard from his uncle that he was near Fengyuan. In the villages and towns of China, ten large copper vats from the past have been dug out, all of which are copper coins from the Song Dynasty, and the total number is hundreds of thousands. melted copper
"Prodigal son..." When Fang Mingyuan heard the news, he wished he could arrest all those people and use bricks to open them up one by one. The copper money has already come back. If these copper coins are sold in the international market, even if you buy a copper mountain, you can buy them back.

"Director Liu, these things in the ancient city must be carefully appraised. If they are said to be valuable as cultural relics, they will be moved to the Confucian Temple in the future. I plan to build a museum there in the future, and we will scatter them in Pingchuan County. The cultural relics from all over the country are centralized and protected." Pingchuan is a large cultural relic county, and civilization has existed here since the Shang and Zhou dynasties. Before the Song Dynasty, it had always been the political and economic center of China at that time. The imperial mausoleum is located here, and one can imagine how rich the cultural relics will be here.

"That's great." Liu Yu's spirit was immediately lifted. Although Pingchuan County is a county with a large number of cultural relics, the county's finances are stretched, and the funds given to the protection of cultural relics every year are pitifully small, let alone the existing cultural relics. The protection is carried out, which means that the salaries of the staff responsible for the protection of cultural relics in the county are guaranteed to be tight.It's the absolute Qingshui Yamen

But Liu Yu has a feeling that maybe starting from this year, they are going to turn around and become the focus of people's attention again.

Several people walked while talking, and soon came to the gate of the Confucian Temple.A gate covered with rust locked the way out.

"Young Master Fang, wait here for a while, I'll go find someone to ask for the key." Liu Yu said with some embarrassment, and trotted away as he spoke.

Looking from the gap between the iron fences, the Confucian Temple is also dilapidated, with weeds growing everywhere, which looks a bit desolate and gloomy.Li Yuxin looked at the scorching sun in the sky. If she hadn't seen this scene at this time, she would have dared not go in.This reminded her of Lanruo Temple in "A Chinese Ghost Story" she watched not long ago.

It didn't take long, Liu Yu ran back sweating and panting again, and opened the door.

In the front yard of the Confucian Temple, there are 28 horse-tied posts erected on the left and right, and animals that look like monkeys, dogs, and unicorns are carved on the heads of the posts.Although it has become a bit blurred after the invasion of time, if you look closely, you can still see that they have different shapes and rich expressions.From this, one can imagine the bustling scene of cars and horses here.

"Fang Shao, it can be said that the Confucian Temple in the ancient city of Pingchuan has existed since the day the city was built. It was destroyed and repaired several times later. The most recent time was in the 30th year of the Republic of China. The residents of the ancient city at that time raised funds to renovate it. No large-scale renovations have been carried out. It turned out that this was the location of the county radio station, and it was more or less popular. Later, after the county party committee and county government moved away, it completely declined. Come with me, the front It’s the main hall, Dacheng Hall.” Liu Yu led the way in front, acting as a part-time tour guide.

The main hall faces south and is located on a high platform. The main hall is on the top of Xieshan Mountain, with cornices and corner columns at the four corners. The front of the hall is [-] or [-] meters wide, and the inside is seven or eight meters deep.The middle of the main hall is the widest and gradually decreases to both sides.Fang Mingyuan noticed that there were relief patterns of two dragons playing with pearls on the plinths of the three columns in the middle.There are overlapping bucket arches under the eaves and colorful paintings, the roof is decorated with glazed tiles, and there are several wing rooms on each side.It's just that the paint color on the pillars has almost faded now, and the blue boards on the ground are also cracked a lot, even revealing the earthy color underneath, which looks mottled and dilapidated. He lost his head, but his hands and feet were missing, and the stone tablet on the back of the stone turtle in front of the temple was also missing.

"The repair work here is entrusted to the professional team of ancient building repairs in the province. It's just that their last project has not been completed, and it will take about a week before they can come." Liu Yu pointed to the main hall and said, "I dare not Give this place to the team in the county, and with their craftsmanship, I am afraid that what they will eventually create will be something neither fish nor fowl."

Fang Mingyuan nodded. Most of the architectural techniques of this kind of ancient buildings have been lost or are only in the hands of a few old craftsmen who have been passed down from generation to generation. They have recklessly repaired them and finally made them look different. It's better to just leave them like this.

After leaving the Confucian Temple, Fang Mingyuan and the others followed Liu Yu and came to the "Wanjuan Book Building". This was the county library at the time, a small building imitating Japanese-style brick and wood structure, and there was a stone tablet in front of the building On it, there are three big characters of "library" written by Kang Youwei himself.

"This is an empty building now, and all the books have been moved to the Xinxian Library." Liu Yu sighed softly, "There were nearly 3000 people living in the ancient city, but there was no decent library."

"More than 3000 people," Li Yuxin exclaimed, "So many people lived here?"

"Yes." Liu Yu glanced at Fang Mingyuan, this is what he admired most about the Fang family.It's really a big deal. More than 3000 people moved out of the ancient city and moved into the county. The cost of the building, the money is spent like running water.If you want to count the cost of repairing the ancient city, it would be a waste of money.

But without the Fang family, with the current financial capacity of Pingchuan County, it is probably unknown whether this ancient city will be taken seriously in the next century.The longer the delay, the greater the damage to the ancient city.Before the residents moved, the entire ancient city was on the verge of being reduced to a mountain of rubbish.

The Fang family did such a great thing, but for some reason they were unwilling to publicize it to the outside world, and the county seemed not keen on publicizing it. Liu Yu originally thought that this incident could be used to make more Many people pay attention to the protection of cultural relics and historic sites in Pingchuan County.

"Ah, by the way, I almost forgot, Young Master Fang, you come with me." Liu Yu patted his head and said, then turned and walked south.

Fang Mingyuan and Li Yuxin looked at each other in surprise. They didn't know what this guy remembered, but since he had already left, they naturally had to keep up.

Walking along the dilapidated stone road in the city for about a hundred meters, I came to the door of an old house at a high place in the city.Fang Mingyuan noticed that on both sides of the front door of this house, there were still two "mounting stones", and there was a rusty bronze knocker on the door. A series of cracks cut like knives, lost the style of the year.It can be seen from this that the owner here was so rich and magnificent back then, and after many years, he still reveals how rich and rich he used to be.

"This is the best house in Pingchuan County during the Republic of China. Its owner was owned by Ma Yan, the police commander of Fengyuan City at that time. It has been nearly a hundred years now, and it is also one of the best-preserved old houses in the ancient city. This The house is a three-entry courtyard, with a total of more than [-] rooms of different sizes, and a back garden at the back. Although it has been occupied by the original residents to build houses, it can be cleared out in the future. I think that if Fang Shao plans to live in this ancient city If you want to find a mansion here, this place is very good, not only the house is relatively large, but also the location is in the center of the city." Liu Yu explained with a smile.

"Director Liu really bothered you," Fang Mingyuan said with a satisfied smile, "Since it was recommended by Director Liu, I believe in the eyes of professionals, and I will use this place as my residence in Pingchuan in the future. However, I have to trouble Liu The director is in this ancient city, and if you help me choose two houses, I will be of great use in the future."

Immediately, Liu Yu was overjoyed and responded in succession.

Fang Mingyuan stood on the bluestone steps in front of the door, overlooking the whole city, full of ambition

He believes that after the ancient city of Pingchuan is renovated in the future, as long as he lives in it, it will definitely drive the private owners in Pingchuan County who have already become rich to move here.However, Fang Mingyuan has already figured it out. Before 2000, the courtyards in this ancient city were only rented and not sold, and they had to set extremely strict rules for the people who lived there, just like European countries treat those ancient castles. Their identities and wealth must be reviewed, and a high deposit must be paid to ensure that these courtyards are not built or modified at will.

In the future, this ancient city of Pingchuan will become a well-known tourist attraction and high-end villa area in Pingchuan County. The mansion here will become a place where rich people in the entire Qinxi Province will flock to.
