Chapter 267 Reconstruction of Taoist Temple
Although Zhang An learned it when he was a child, he has completely forgotten it after so many years.
In the past, Zhang An was young and ignorant, and didn't care at all about martial arts.
But after resurrecting his life and returning to this era, Zhang An took medicine, traditional crafts and other things very seriously.
After all, Zhang An's current conditions are not very good, but they can still allow his family to live a comfortable life in advance.
Under such conditions, he naturally has more energy to spend in these places.
So today Zhang Yixing brought it up again, and Zhang An was naturally happy to learn from it.
Under Zhang An's nose, Zhang and his party walked the entire route from beginning to end.
Under the gaze of Zhang and his party, Zhang An stood with his left foot open, raised his hands flat in front of him, and bent his legs to squat slightly.
This is the starting point of Tai Chi, with gentle and gentle movements.
I don’t know if Zhang An has developed muscle memory because he has practiced before.
Or maybe it’s because he has a very good memory now. He just read it once and it was all engraved in his mind.
As soon as he got into the starting position, Zhang An started to move following the "Zhang Yixing" in his mind.
Finally, I performed the entire set of movements very standardly, and it didn’t look unfamiliar at all.
Although this set of movements is not difficult, it is also very easy to learn.
But it’s not so simple that you can play it well just by watching it once. In the past, it took Zhang An a lot of time to play it completely when he was a child.
But Zhang Yixing didn’t say anything, thinking that Zhang An had already remembered it.
However, standards are standards, and there are still many problems. After all, Zhang An is not a martial arts wizard.
Zhang Yixing's actions are pleasing to the eye, but although Zhang An is not bad, he looks a little awkward.
Then Zhang Yixing asked Zhang An to type again, and finally found the main reason.
In the past, when Zhang An was a child, all Zhang Yixing asked him to do was to be able to type skillfully. After all, it is useless to ask too much at a young age.
And now that Zhang An is not young, Zhang Yi Xing naturally wants to tell him everything he already understands.
Although Zhang An's movements are very standard, he ignores the essence inside - strength.
Although Tai Chi may seem gentle and slow, each move requires strength.
And these strengths are different. You need to be familiar with the eight strengths of pinching, stroking, squeezing, pressing, picking, rowing, elbowing and leaning.
After being instructed on each action by Zhang Yi Xing, Zhang An seemed to have some understanding.
Although it has some prototypes, it still has not been developed.
Because his strength is not small to begin with, it is a bit foolish to want to be able to control it freely at once.
"Okay, this won't happen overnight. You can't rush it all at once. You still need to practice more in the future."
Looking at Zhang An doing it again, there is already some energy in him Zhang and his party were very satisfied with the shadow of Tao.
"Xiao An, I want to take advantage of this period of time before the year to renovate those broken houses."
While cooking the Smilax cocos dug yesterday in the yard, Zhang Yixing said. .
Although he now lives in Zhang An's home, during these days, he has begun to consider the idea of building a Taoist temple.
It’s just that he has been considering whether to repair it on the original basis or to rebuild it as a whole.
Finally, he thought about it clearly. Those rotten houses were adobe houses that had been built in the 1950s and 1960s.
So many years have passed now. It is not impossible to repair it, but in the end it will definitely not last long.
So he planned to push back the cover. Anyway, he didn’t plan to wander around again.
"Godfather, you can live here with peace of mind. If you feel it's not clean enough, you can live in the old house. Don't worry about those rotten rooms."
Zhang An, on the other hand, Thinking of letting Zhang and his party live at home, he would be half of his father after all.
Now the family situation is not that difficult, and it doesn’t matter if there is one more person in the family.
And although Zhang An's family now has four people, it can be considered a normal family according to future generations.
But now, including Zhang and his party, it is also a deserted house.
"This is not a question of peace and quiet. It is always my home there, and I have to go back no matter what."
Although Zhang Yixing is an abandoned baby, the old bastard The Taoist temple was the place where he lived and grew up with his master.
For him, it was his lifelong home.
Zhang An wanted to give some more advice, but seeing that Zhang and his party had already made up their minds, they gave up the idea of speaking.
Anyway, Zhang and his party will not go out anymore. They all live in the same village. They are the same wherever they live.
But for those houses in the bamboo forest, it is easy to knock them down, but it still takes a little effort to rebuild them.
After all, there is only a narrow mountain road leading to the Taoist temple, which is not enough for vehicles to pass.
So the building materials for building a house can only be placed at the entrance of the village and then transported there manually.
As a result, if you want to build a house there, you will have to spend a lot of manpower.
When Zhang An thought about it, it seemed that it was not impossible for him to build a house when he was young.
After all, after the autumn planting, everyone in the village began to relax.
After entering winter, it is not as good as in summer. Even if there is a slack season, everyone has work to do. If there is nothing in winter, it is really nothing.
It doesn’t matter how much labor is needed at that time, the worst case scenario is just hire it from the village.
"That's okay. Let's call the second uncle and the others to discuss it later."
This year, the second uncle Zhang An has led the construction team that the village spontaneously gathered to build a construction team in a nearby village. Many houses have been built here.
Whether it is a tile-roofed house or a bungalow, they can handle it now.
Zhang An actually wants to find Li Hongbin and ask him to build a Taoist temple directly according to the drawings.
But this year Li Hongbin has taken over several construction sites in the city, and now the engineering team in his hands is busy.
If you ask people to put down their big projects and come here just to do this little work.
Zhang An really couldn’t lose face. After all, everyone makes money by eating.
It was done as promised. As soon as the discussion was finalized, Zhang An came to the door and called Zhang Jianjun over.
Zhang Jianjun became serious when he heard that Laihuo was coming.
After all, there are not many people who can build houses now, especially during this time before the year, there were even fewer jobs.
If you complete this list, everyone will be able to buy more New Year goods at the end of the year and have a good New Year.
After asking Zhang Yixing what he thought, Zhang Jianjun began to take out a pen and paper to write and calculate.
Zhang Jianjun and his generation are very familiar with the Taoist temple in the village.
So Zhang Jianjun can know how big the place is and how much materials are needed without even going to the site.
Although there are only a few broken rooms in the Taoist temple, except for the main hall dedicated to Sanqing.
There are also side halls on the left and right sides, which are usually the residence where Zhang and his party used to live.
Compared with other larger Taoist temples, this is not as good as a toilet.
But in this big mountain, it is actually not a small place anymore.
After spending more than ten or twenty minutes, Zhang Jianjun calculated the required materials. In the end, after everything was included, it cost at least eight thousand yuan.
Zhang Yixing thought for a while and then said: "Jianjun, see if you can reduce it some. I don't have that much money."
Actually, The cost of building three houses, including labor and materials, is only eight thousand yuan, which is not much anymore.
After all, it costs more than two thousand yuan to build a house, which is really not expensive nowadays.
And this is also because of Zhang and his party’s previous help to the village and their relationship with Zhang An.
So he didn’t make any profit from the price difference of the materials, and the wages were considered the lowest.
However, Zhang Yixing doesn't have enough money of his own, but it's understandable if you think about it.
He has been wandering outside these years and has no salary or fixed income. It is good to have money saved.
"Brother Xing, there is no room to reduce this. Even if the materials are reduced, it will not cost much, unless the side hall is not built, which can be reduced a lot."
After listening to Zhang and his party Zhang Jianjun thought for a while and said.
Even if the materials here are replaced with low-priced materials, you won’t actually save much money.
Even if he didn't accept wages and talked about how good Zhang and his party were to everyone in the past and helped build this house, it wouldn't be much smaller.
The most important thing is that we have to build three houses this time, so we can’t save any money.
"Second uncle, godfather, there is no need to cut back, I will pay for it."
While the two were silent, Zhang An spoke.
“Don’t skimp on these materials. After all, this is a house, no joke. Second uncle, don’t think your wages are too low.”
Zhang An planned to provide money to build a house for Zhang Yixing from the beginning, so how could he make it difficult for Zhang Yixing to deal with money.
Isn’t it just ten thousand dollars? Next year he will make money by selling some cherries. What a big deal.
"No, Xiao An, how can you spend this money? If so, I might as well just live in your old house."
Zhang Yixing refused without even thinking about it. .
Although Zhang An is considered his half-son, Zhang An also has parents.
And now Zhang An is married and has a family of his own in the future.
Although he was very close to Zhang An when he was a child, he has been out for so many years, and no matter how close he is, they are still unfamiliar.
So he really didn’t want Zhang An to give out the money. If word spread, others would say that he came back to ask for money.
“Hey godfather, as your half son, I will definitely build this house for you, and I will also provide for you in your old age.”
After all, this godfather She has protected him since he was a child and allowed him to grow up safely and healthily.
He might not have believed this before, after all, it was a bit mysterious to say so.
But since Zhang An returned from time travel, he felt that he still needed to believe in these things and maintain a sense of awe.
And Zhang Yi Xing is now in his sixties and has not yet started a family, let alone children.
Although he is a Taoist priest, he is the kind of Taoist priest who can marry a wife.
He had never thought about getting married and having children before, so it was even less possible now.
As Zhang An’s half-son, this is what he should do if his conditions permit.
Zhang and his party originally wanted to say something, but they were blocked by Zhang An.
Seeing Zhang An like this, he smiled happily, and at the same time he made a decision in his heart.
"Second Uncle, I will get you the money later, and you guys will see when we can start work."
No matter when you ask, you still have to get this material back first.
Moreover, the original adobe house must be demolished first, which will take a long time.
"I'll talk to the rest of them later, and we should be able to start work in the next two days."
Zhang Jianjun thought for a while and gave Zhang An an approximate time.
"In the past two days? The rapeseed hasn't been planted yet."
Zhang An originally thought that he would wait until the autumn planting before starting work, but he didn't expect that his second uncle would do it in the past two days. Want to get in.
“It’s not yet time to plant rapeseed in the past two days, so we can start the work first, and the materials must be obtained first.”
Although there will be plenty of time after the autumn planting is over, But by then the weather had turned cold, and working was a torture.
So Zhang Jianjun planned to take advantage of the two days when it was neither hot nor cold and was comfortable, and quickly drag people into the venue to do it first.
In this way, when the autumn planting is over, the work can be completed in advance without having to endure the cold outside.
Although it is okay for everyone to suffer a little if you can make money.
But it would be a fool to suffer from the cold when you can avoid it.
After all the details, big and small, were discussed, Zhang Jianjun didn’t stay any longer.
He was anxious to go back to discuss with his partners and contact them to start purchasing building materials.
After dinner in the afternoon, Zhang An and Zhang and his party went to find Zhang Jianwen.
When Zhang and his party went out, there was still no electricity in the village.
Later, the village got electricity, but because Zhang and his party were not there, the electric poles were not pulled that way.
Now that it needs to be rebuilt over there, it is necessary to ask the village to issue a certificate, and then go to the power supply bureau to find someone to plant poles and pull wires.
Zhang Jianwen heard that Zhang and his party wanted to demolish the Taoist temple, and he was very supportive of it.
And he also made it clear that any wood to be used can be cut directly at the brigade forest farm.
If you need any help, you can mention it to the village, and anyone in the village who can help will help.
Moreover, they were not even allowed to pull electricity. The village could talk to the power supply bureau.
After all, if the village comes forward, they can save hundreds of dollars on this.
After all, if you go to the power supply bureau personally, even if you have a certificate from the village, you will have to bear the costs of planting poles and pulling wires.
Early the next morning, Zhang Jianjun led someone to the door.
He is not slow. He just discussed with their group in the evening and is going to demolish the adobe house today.
But he did not go directly to demolish it. Instead, he came to see Zhang and his party first.
If it is a side hall, it doesn't matter. After all, it is just the place where Zhang and his party lived before.
But this is not possible in the main hall, because the founder of the Sanqing Dynasty is also enshrined inside.
No matter who it is, there will be some taboos about this aspect. After all, no one can be sure about this.
So they could only start construction after Zhang and his party made a sacrifice and then invited the founder of Sanqing out.
During the demolition, everyone was very careful because Zhang An had a huge mountain wind here before.
However, at the end of the demolition, I only found a few snake skins that had shed for a long time, and nothing else.
It’s normal not to find any other snakes, insects, rats, or ants. After all, there is such a giant mountain wind.
Everything that appears nearby is its prey and has long been digested by it.
