Chapter 377: Bringing glory to the family and returning home in glory!
Whether it's government meetings or design bidding, it all takes time.
It will definitely take a while to finish!
So, after reaching a preliminary agreement with his leader over the phone, Qin Han returned to his hometown. He had nothing to do for the time being, so he might as well go home and take a look.
He saw the changes before he even reached home.
The road at the entrance of the village has changed. It used to be less than 6 meters wide and was a cement road that could barely accommodate two cars passing side by side. Although it was a cement road, many places were rotten and bumpy.
But now?
The two-way four-lane asphalt road leads straight to the village. The road surface is so smooth that you can almost see a person's shadow. The asphalt is shiny black, and the edges are neatly outlined with white hot-melt markings, like a brand new black silk spread on the ground.
There are carefully planned green belts on both sides of the road, with green plants of varying heights planted at regular intervals.
The tall ginkgo trees are lined up neatly, with lush branches and leaves, casting a large area of shade. When autumn and winter come, the golden leaves fall with the wind and cover the road, which is a beautiful sight.
In the green belts, crape myrtles, roses, azaleas and other flowers compete with each other in beauty. The colors of the flowers are rich and varied, red like fire, pink like clouds, and white like snow. They sway gently in the breeze, emitting bursts of refreshing fragrance.
In addition, uniquely shaped landscape stones are cleverly placed between the green belts, engraved with famous poems and verses, adding a touch of cultural atmosphere.
Every few hundred meters, you can see a modern public toilet. The appearance of the public toilet adopts the new Chinese style, and the gray tiles and white walls complement the surrounding environment.
Drainage ditches were built beside the highway, and pebbles were laid in the ditches, which are both beautiful and practical, and effectively solved the problem of water accumulation on the road during rainy days. Classified trash cans were set up at regular intervals on the roadside, with bright colors and clear signs, making it convenient for villagers to put out their trash.
Simultaneously,
The village has also formed a special sanitation team to clean roads and maintain green belts on a regular basis every day, so that the entire village always remains clean and beautiful.
Looking at the road outside the car window, Qin Han nodded with satisfaction.
The money was not wasted!
During the Chinese New Year, the village party secretary went to my house to beg for alms, hoping to repair the roads in the village.
At that time, the whole village knew that Qin Han's son had become rich. He spent millions just on fireworks. If this wasn't rich, what was?
If they can spend millions on fireworks, then why not donate some money to the village to repair the road? That’s not too much, right?
Well, not too much!
Qin Han thought so too, so he paid 500 million yuan and proposed a standard: if we were to build the road, we had to build a good road. It had to be wide and flat, and also beautiful and impressive.
The village party secretary agreed readily.
Later, the village asked a road and bridge company to come and conduct a survey and calculation on site, and found that 500 million was not enough.
The village party secretary went to Qin's house again, and Qin Changqing called Qin Han.
When Qin Han heard this, he thought it was an easy solution. His family was building a house and repairing the ancestral tomb anyway, so he might as well repair the village road as well. He let Xu Hu be in charge and also told the construction company introduced by Cheng Songda about this matter.
The main roads in the whole village are less than 10 kilometers in total. The roads leading to various village groups do not need to be built so well or so wide, and some places are difficult to build because they are close to the mountains.
Today,
The road has been completed for two months, with a total cost of 1 million!
Driving along this newly renovated road, you can see two towering new Chinese-style villas at the foot of the mountain from afar.
The exterior walls of the villa are made of high-quality gray-white clay bricks, which are fired using a special process. The texture is natural and simple, and it glows with a warm luster in the sun.
The roof is covered with dark grey glazed tiles, and the eaves and corners are decorated with brass, which makes a crisp and pleasant sound when swaying gently in the wind.
The main gate is five meters high and is made of a whole piece of Burmese teak. The surface is carved with exquisite patterns such as auspicious dragons playing with pearls, plum, orchid, bamboo and chrysanthemum. The two doors are inlaid with copper door knockers with a diameter of half a meter. A gilded plaque is hung above the lintel. The two characters "Qin Mansion" are vigorous and powerful, shining in the sun.
The front yard covers an area of several hundred square meters. The blue-gray marble floor tiles are inlaid with copper to form auspicious cloud patterns. In the center stands a three-story white marble fountain, with water pouring down from the lotus-shaped nozzle and falling into the koi pond below.
There are dozens of precious Japanese koi in the pond, with red, white and black colors intertwined, swimming and playing among the green water plants.
The pool is decorated with Taihu stones arranged in an orderly manner, matched with neatly trimmed Podocarpus trees, and surrounded by winding gravel paths.
The main body of the villa has three floors, and the interior space is open and bright.
The first floor is the public activity area, the second floor is the family’s bedroom area, and the third floor is the leisure and entertainment area.
The two villas are connected by an aerial corridor with transparent glass guardrails on both sides and a bamboo forest below.
Walking along the corridor, you can enjoy the beautiful scenery of the villas on both sides and feel the tranquility of the bamboo forest. The entire villa park is also equipped with the most advanced smart home system. Lighting, curtains, air conditioning, security and other equipment can be controlled by mobile phone or voice, which is convenient and safe.
Of these two villas, one belongs to Qin Han's family, and the other belongs to his grandparents.
Originally, the homesteads of the two families were not together, but Qin Han has made such a great contribution to the village, so what's the big deal about exchanging a piece of homestead for his grandparents'?
Don't even mention changing it.
Even if the existing homestead is expanded tenfold, that’s no big deal!
The whole village is happy and supports it with both hands!!
After Qin Han arrived home, he first asked someone to take the gifts he brought back out of the car, then went to see his grandparents, and talked with his parents, uncles, aunts, and mothers for a while.
After building such a magnificent, luxurious and comfortable villa, Qin Han's uncle and his family suddenly felt that the houses in the city were not so attractive.
Compared with the villa in my hometown, the house in the city is like heaven and earth. Even the toilet in my hometown is not as good as it.
Now my uncle's family and my uncle's family have all moved back, and they live with Qin Han's grandparents.
The whole family lived together, and they could see each other and chat every day. They lived a happy and comfortable life...
After talking with his family for a while, Qin Han went to Beishan without even visiting his home.
The once overgrown Beishan Mountain has been transformed into a majestic cemetery. The mountain is covered with golden nanmu trees arranged according to the five elements and eight trigrams. The treetops are stacked like umbrellas, giving off an amber halo in the sun.
At the top of the mountain, a clear spring gushes out from a natural stone cave. This living water, called "Tianshui Spring" by Chen Sheng, meanders down along the carefully excavated bluestone channel, like a lively silver belt winding around the mountainside.
Go up along the white marble sacred road,
The stone statues of civil and military officials on both sides are arranged according to the directions of the twenty-eight constellations. Rippling water flows parallel to the sacred road, and there is a lotus-shaped water outlet every nine steps.
In Feng Shui, nine is the extreme number. When water flows through this place, it is evenly dispersed, forming the momentum of "nine dragons spitting pearls", which means widespread blessings.
The five-colored pebbles laid under the water surface correspond to the five elements. They slowly rotate with the water flow, bringing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth into the cemetery.
The hilltop where the ancestral tomb is located is shaped like a throne, with a mountain behind it like a screen and a wide open space in front. On the white marble fence surrounding the tomb, auspicious carvings of dragons and phoenixes complement the gurgling water.
The stream winding down from the top of the mountain forms a triple waterfall here, falling into the semicircular inkstone washing pool - this is the "ink pool" in the feng shui layout, symbolizing the prosperity of literary fortune.
When the pool overflows, the water flows to the foot of the mountain along the underground culvert.
In the southeast octagonal glazed pavilion, a pure gold Bagua mirror faces the turning point of the water flow. The mirror refracts sunlight on the water surface, forming a flowing light spot, just like a "Tai Chi fish eye", which harmonizes the yin and yang energies. Under the three-story Pixiu Tower in the northwest, a circular waterway flows around the tower base, and the water forms a vortex here, which is called a "gathering vortex" in Feng Shui, locking in wealth.
At the foot of the mountain, streams converge into a clear pool, in which nine natural turtle-patterned stones are deliberately placed, corresponding to the nine directions.
There are pennyworts floating on the water, and their leaves are stacked like green copper coins. A stone tablet engraved with "Water Dragon Sutra" stands by the pond.
The lake water is connected to the outside world through an underground river, forming a pattern of "living water gathering wealth, and wealth gushing like springs".
The newly built ancestral hall by the pond has flying eaves and brackets, and a plaque with the words "Long-lasting blessings" hangs in the main hall. During the Qingming Festival, the Qin clan members can walk around the pond after offering sacrifices here, which means accepting the blessings of their ancestors and continuous good fortune.
Listening to Xu Chong's endless explanation, Qin Han looked around and couldn't help nodding repeatedly.
It is really good, grand and magnificent!
Although he did not understand the theory of yin and yang, he knew just by looking at it with his own eyes that this place was amazing. If the ancestors could rest in peace in such a place, then they would feel comfortable and would not be able to bless their descendants with all their strength, right?
"Master Chen, thank you very much!"
Qin Han stood up straight and bowed deeply to Chen Sheng, his tone full of gratitude. Chen Sheng stroked his beard and looked at him with a smile, "We are destined to meet!"
The word "fate" is too ethereal.
Invisible and intangible, but it really exists.
Since Mr. Chen said so, Qin Han just listened. He was thinking that he had to reward Mr. Chen well. It would always be a good idea to maintain a good relationship with such a great man.
Under the leadership of Xu Hu, Qin Han climbed to the top of the mountain by climbing the steps one by one.
Deep in the cemetery, there is a courtyard with a well-arranged layout. This is the residence of the gravekeeper.
Gray tiles, white walls, carved beams and painted buildings all show the elegance of Chinese architecture. The courtyard is full of pine and cypress trees, which blend in with the golden nanmu trees all over the mountain. A modern security system is hidden in it, guarding this cemetery 24 hours a day.
On the top of the mountain, a magnificent sacrificial hall rises from the ground.
The main hall adopts a pure mortise and tenon structure, with flying eaves and upturned corners, vermilion pillars, and golden glazed tiles that sparkle in the sun.
The hall houses the tablets of the Qin family's ancestors. On every sacrificial day, incense smoke rises, drums and music sound, and all the descendants of the Qin family come here to worship their ancestors.
After burning a stick of incense to his ancestors, Qin Han left.
……
Coming down from the North Mountain,
Mr. Chen then said that the matter here was settled and he would be preparing to return soon.
Qin Han naturally couldn't stop her. He turned around and gestured, and Shen Lan took out a book of checks from her bag.
Qin Han took it and used a pen to draw a string of zeros on it, a total of eleven digits!
Xu Hu was not far away, and out of curiosity he took a few sneak peeks. When he saw the long string of zeros, he was so shocked that his eyes almost popped out.
In addition to surprise, envy is naturally inevitable. In addition, there is also shock at the financial strength of the Qin and Han dynasties.
This is a real boss!
It's so arrogant!
The compensation paid to the Feng Shui master was as high as 100 million!
Damn it, I wouldn't even dare to dream about it.
However, when he thought about the money and materials spent on repairing ancestral tombs, building roads, and building houses in the past six months, he quickly felt relieved.
Not to mention anything else, the value of the Phoebe nanmu saplings all over the mountains alone adds up to hundreds of millions.
Because one of them is an ancient tree, it is hundreds of years old.
The price of golden nanmu wood that is hundreds of years old is really sky-high.
Xu Hu was in charge of the overall coordination. He was very clear about the situation. The total amount of money spent on repairing the Qin family's ancestral tomb alone amounted to tens of billions.
Then paying a Feng Shui master 100 million yuan doesn’t seem too outrageous?
tear-
After writing the check, Qin Han handed it over with both hands, "Master Chen."
Mr. Chen didn't hesitate and took it.
After taking a look, he smiled and said, "Mr. Qin spent a lot of money."
"It should."
After a pause, Qin Han continued, "Master Chen, if you have any other requests, please don't hesitate to ask. If I can do it, I will definitely not refuse and will do my best!"
"Nothing for now."
"If you have any questions in the future, feel free to contact me."
Mr. Chen hesitated for a moment, then nodded, "Then I'll remember today's appointment."
"It's my duty." Qin Han said with a smile.
……
After sending Chen Sheng away,
Qin Han then went home and his family sat together for a reunion dinner. After the meal, Xu Hu also came over and expressed that he wanted to leave.
"Where do you want to go?"
"Go home and see."
"What happens after that?"
"Forehead……"
"How about this, come and work with me, I promise I won't treat you unfairly, how about that?"
Xu Hu's face suddenly lit up, and he said with a smile: "That's great!"
In fact, he had been waiting for this sentence.
It is true that he wanted to go home and take a look, but it is also true that he wanted to take the opportunity to test Qin Han's idea. The two are not contradictory.
Although he had to keep an eye on each construction site for the past six months to ensure that there were no mistakes in the construction and to strictly follow the drawings, his life was very tiring. However, he also made a lot of money. Qin Han paid him a very generous salary of 10,000 yuan a day.
Simple and rude!
In the past six months, he has earned more than one million in salary alone. If subsidies are included, it is almost two million.
This salary level is quite good even among the Fortune 500 companies, and can be considered the income level of middle-level leaders.
The key is that you don’t have to take any risks, and you are guaranteed to make a profit regardless of drought or flood.
This is very relaxing mentally!
Having tasted the sweetness, Xu Hu of course wanted to continue following Qin Han and hold tightly to this big, thick, golden leg.
So he immediately asked, "Boss Qin, what do you want me to do there?"
good question……
Qin Han was also thinking about this problem. Xu Hu was a talented person. He had a flexible mind, strong social skills, and was good at dealing with people and getting things done.
Throw the household chores to him, and he handles them beautifully and properly.
Talent must be retained!
After thinking about it, he had an idea and said with a smile: "How about this, you can be my office director."
