Zhang Zhou entered the palace again.
This time he went to inspect the renovation progress of Qingning Palace.
Xiao Jing was responsible for taking him there, telling him about the current preparations along the way. Zhang Zhou was also listening in one ear and out the other. He didn't understand engineering construction, and he didn't even know about metaphysics. It's a temporary fix.
"Eunuch Xiao, how much has it cost to rebuild the Qingning Palace, excluding the procurement costs?"
Zhang Zhou suddenly interrupted Xiao Jing and asked another question.
Xiao Jing looked at him, even slowed down his steps, and said with a wry smile, "Mr. Zhang, why do you ask this?"
Zhang Zhou said pretentiously, "I am not a palace official. Being responsible for building Qingning Palace for the imperial palace, of course I must understand His Majesty’s frugality and strive to build the best palace with the least amount of money.” Xiao Jing thought to himself and saw it.
You are not frugal, you are stingy.
"Mr. Zhang, please forgive me for saying this, but the key to making the emperor's mission is to satisfy all parties. As for how much money can be saved, it is really not the point."
Xiao Jing expressed his views tactfully.
Zhang Zhou smiled and said, "Eunuch Xiao, I understand what you mean, but what you said is the idea of your palace people. You need to manage the relationship between all parties, because if you look up, you will see me when you look down. , I can always get involved in the future. But I am different. I am a commoner, and I don’t hang out in the palace. I will probably not enter the palace again after this matter is over. For me, good quality and low price are the king."
"Haha, Mr. Zhang is joking, this is not grocery shopping."
Xiao Jing smiled bitterly.
He was also thinking in his mind that Zhang Zhou's consciousness was not simple, and what he said was in line with the current situation of the palace people.
Probably only a "wild man" like Zhang Zhou doesn't have to worry about the Queen, the Zhang family's relatives, the relationship between the Zhang and Zhou families, Li Guang's old department, and other things that the palace people care about.
Because they are people who play with pens, unlike those of them who are struggling in the palace.
As they were talking, the two of them arrived at the former site of Qingning Palace.
At this time, hundreds of craftsmen were working. The originally dark ruins were gone, but a pit was dug on the site. The soil was transported out one by one in wheelbarrows and then piled on top. On one side, this is the preparation before laying the foundation, which will be backfilled later.
Xiao Jing said, "Mr. Zhang, do you think this direction is quite correct? Now we have dug the prototype of the foundation. When you see that there is no problem, we will pound the earth and erect the stones."
Now the people in the palace also know that this matter is not trivial. If the house is renovated and another disaster occurs, the emperor will pursue it and say that he did not adopt Zhang Zhou's opinion. It is estimated that it will not be as simple as imprisonment and banning, but his death.
So now every step in the Qingning Palace requires Zhang Zhou to personally inspect it.
It’s not that Zhang Zhou’s opinion is very important, but that this matter needs to be endorsed by Zhang Zhou, a “half-immortal”.
Zhang Zhou seemed to be showing off, gesturing with his arms.row.
At this time, everyone in the construction site stopped what they were doing, knowing that the great god was coming. They wanted to see how the great god calculated the dragon veins and feng shui, but when they saw Zhang Zhou making gestures with his arms
p>No one has ever seen such a fantasy thing.
There are endless discussions about "It turns out that this is how the master works without having to hold a compass. He is indeed not the kind of magician who likes to show off and deceive."
Xiao Jing looked at it for a long time and didn’t understand it, so he asked, “Mr. Zhang, do you need to prepare anything for you?”
Zhang Zhou put down his arms and said with a smile, “No need , The location is pretty good. As long as it is not caused by man-made arson, the sky fire alone should not be able to fall down."
"Uh"
Xiao Jing was a bit reluctant to take action.
Artificial arson
Zhang Zhou still understands the world, and he probably knows that someone may be unhappy with him and set a fire, so no matter how he tests it now, it will be in vain.
As for the sky fire, did it just come?
"But there are some ways to avoid the sky fire, you still need to pay attention to it. This is a drawing I drew, find someone to take a look at it. , I’m going to add a sky-reaching needle on the roof.”
“What?”
“It’s a way to redirect the sky fire. Even if you tell me, you don’t understand.”
Xiao Jing was very depressed after hearing this.
I think that if you hadn’t really been able to calculate the secret, I would have thought you were some lowly charlatan who didn’t even have any professional knowledge and was just talking nonsense.
But as expected, as those outsiders see it, you are very different from the Taoist priests who like to pretend to be gods and ghosts.
You probably don’t bother to engage in Taoist priests dancing with great gods, right?
This should be the legendary true skill
“Ahem”
Zhang Zhou deliberately coughed twice to remind Xiao Jing, I still have the drawings here. Can you please find someone to come over and take a look first.
Xiao Jing finally came back to his senses and called to the people in the distance, "Come here, come and help the Heavenly Master."
A banner of the Imperial Guard that made Zhang Zhou feel very familiar. He trotted over and knelt down to kowtow to Zhang Zhou.
"The villain Zhang Yun has seen the immortal master and the factory grandfather."
It's this guy again
Zhang Zhou didn't know why, but he saw This kid just wanted to kick him twice, and he was so flattering that he was so incompetent.
Xiao Jing said, "Zhang Yun, our family still has things to do. Please greet Mr. Zhang well. If you don't do well, it's your fault."
"Okay"
< p>Zhang Yun got up and hurriedly went to pick up the drawings from Zhang Zhou's hand.But Zhang Zhou folded the drawing and put it into his pocket.
If this kid breaks it again, he will have to repaint it later, which will cost an extra step.
Xiao Jing left, and Zhang Yun accompanied Zhang Zhou around the construction site. Although Zhang Yun was just a general banner, because he was a stall owner in the East Factory, he was several ranks higher than Fanzi and ordinary Jinyiwei. , I feel very good wherever I go.
"Work hard, don’t cause trouble for the immortal master."
Zhang Zhou found that this boy seemed to be here to get close to the big tree.
Why did he feel that this boy was pretending to be powerful?
"Immortal Master, after I returned home, I asked my family to check the family tree. If I didn't check it, I wouldn't know. It turns out that I moved from Yingtian Mansion three generations ago. Maybe we were still a family a hundred years ago."
Zhang Yun has already begun to have a relationship with Zhang Zhou.
It seems that he is talking about the Yongle capital move. Lives in Yingtian Mansion. "
"This"
The smile on Zhang Yun's face was a little stiff, "The little one should have known the Immortal Master in his previous life, otherwise he would not have met the Immortal Master. When I saw my relatives, I often had dreams when I was little. I dreamed that gods would come to pick me up from the sky, saying that they could take me to the immortal class. I told others that they thought I was hysterical. Now I understand that this is God is guiding me to do things with you, the immortal master. ”
Zhang Zhou was very speechless after hearing this.
After you talk about your ancestors and your past life, you finished talking about your past life and your dreams.
What are you dreaming about? Do you have to let me wear it?
Zhang Zhou was very disdainful of Zhang Yun's approach. One thing he wanted to understand was that no matter how diligent and reliable a person is, he can't hang around in Dongchang.
By the time the Ming Dynasty was founded or after the Jing Dynasty, everything was restored, and the government, especially the Dongchang factory, could no longer be normal after decades of conservatism. The promotion channels are given to people at the bottom who can do things.
If Li Guang falls, the next Li Guang will rise.
This is not a personal demand, but an institutional demand. p>
This also explains why Zhang Yun knew it was shameless to do so, but still had a big face to have a relationship with him.
Zhang Zhou said, "Really? But I have never done anything like this." The dream of the immortal family did not get any guidance. What I dream of is to be ranked in the imperial examination. Your Excellency, is it another person that God directed you to seek refuge with? You made a mistake."
"No, no, ever since I saw the immortal master, I am sure it must be the immortal master. Wrong."
Zhang Yun looked determined.
Zhang Zhou frowned secretly.
When your kid said this, he believed it in his heart.
Just as he was talking, there was a commotion in the distance, but it was Yang Peng, the eunuch of Dongchang whom he had seen before, who was Xiao Jing’s right-hand man whom Li Guangan had installed in Dongchang, coming over surrounded by people. .
"Go away"
As soon as Yang Peng came over, he turned his face, and now Zhang Yun handed over the ordinary Zhang Zhou's task
Yang Peng then saluted Zhang Zhou, "Yang has met Zhang Xianshi. "
Zhang Zhou said, "You are Yang Peng, Eunuch Yang, right?"
"Exactly, it's rare that Master Zhang Xian is so concerned that he still remembers someone's name. Someone is responsible for this reconstruction in the palace. What are your instructions for the implementation of Qingning Palace?Just say it to someone. ”
Yang Peng looks much more normal than Zhang Yun, a flatterer.
Maybe Yang Peng is also in a high position and is a bit embarrassed. If this is an ordinary Gongsheng student, In front of Yang Peng, he didn't even look at him seriously when he recognized him as his grandfather and kowtowed to him.
Zhang Zhou said, "Finally, a person in charge has come. I want to add a sky-reaching needle to the newly built palace. The drawings are here, do you think there is something wrong?"
Yang Pengcheng said in fear, "Master Zhang Xian, you are just talking, you are the one who is doing the work, someone is just following orders, you can add whatever you say, Add it wherever you say. ”
“Yeah. ”
What Zhang Zhou wants to add is naturally a lightning rod.
There are also things similar to lightning rods these days, but because there is no grounding wire, the lightning rods these days are more like The things that metaphysics can do to suppress ghosts and gods cannot protect against lightning.
“Well, let’s get started. Hurry up and repair the foundation. Finish it as soon as possible. You don’t have to wait for me for everything. ”
Zhang Zhou understands that since he is the first person in charge, he is actually the first person responsible. If something happens, he may have to bear the responsibility.
Others may also bear the responsibility. I'm sorry.
Yang Peng took Zhang Zhou aside and said, "Master Zhang, someone heard that your house is being renovated recently. I wonder if someone can help."
< p>When Zhang Yiyi heard this, he immediately felt that Yang Peng and Zhang Yun were on different levels.Zhang Yun's flattery was just to express his loyalty to the fairy master and fairy dream. Thoughts on doing things, but the problem is that such an unprincipled person defected to Li Guang before, and now he has defected to me. Who knows if you will stab me when I am unlucky?
Yang Peng is different.
It’s too cheap to say that it’s disrespectful, so just be more practical and help repair the house.
Zhang Zhou said, “Eunuch Yang is thoughtful, you can keep these small things in my house in mind. "
Yang Peng said hurriedly, "Someone just learned about it accidentally. ”
Zhang Zhou thought to himself, it’s not like I don’t know the capabilities of your Dongchang. As a eunuch of the Dongchang, you can easily investigate anyone without any explanation.
Zhang Zhou said, “Speaking of which, this It's really hard to find good craftsmen in the market, but I just repaired and renovated it casually, not building new pillars, so I don't bother Eunuch Yang. What I hope is that the Qingning Palace can be renovated as soon as possible and the Empress Dowager can move in as soon as possible. Eunuch Yang, do you think you can help me a lot?"
Yang Peng is a smart man.
As soon as he heard it, he understood that no matter how much Zhang Zhou did before, it was just a matter of Xuanmen that was talked about by God and God.
The rebuilding of Qingning Palace was Zhang Zhou’s first time. When the emperor ordered him to go on an errand, Zhang Zhou’s intention was to look good for his first errand.
Yang Peng said, “Let’s put it this way, Master Zhang, the original budget for the renovation of Qingning Palace was 120,000 taels. Someone is here. I guarantee here that it can be repaired within 80,000 taels. Even if there is an extra part, it will definitely not be wasted by the court.A penny.
