    Hidden-

    ? Shanghai is located in a water town in the south of the Yangtze River, but the appearance of the city is quite different from neighboring Suzhou and other places.  It does not have the riverside mesh cloth common in Shuicheng, and the alleys are twists and turns.  This is because it was taken into account when building the city, which can make the city level and easy to plan.  Second, because drinking water in the city is easy to get sick, the government made great efforts to fill up the big and small river banks in the city.  Hundreds of roads, streets, squares and other large and small roads have been planned on a thousand hectares of land, forming the framework of the city.

    Over the past few decades, along with the take-off of Shanghai City, the population has also surged from tens of thousands at the beginning to hundreds of thousands, hundreds of thousands, and broke through one million a few years ago.  With the continuous increase of residential buildings, countless lanes and alleys have appeared, turning the original neat frame with interlaced latitude and longitude into a dense and complicated spider web.  The main road is connected to the small street, the main street crosses the small road, there are squares in the street, there are lanes in the alley, alleys, litong streets, street passagesWalking in small alleys, walking to the end of the alley, it seems that there is no way  , but go to the end; turn left or right, and there is another road not far away.  When outsiders first arrive, they will be confused and confused.

    Qin Lei's new residence is in Huaishu Lane near Guangfu Temple in the south of the city.  What Lu Zhi originally set his eyes on was the apartment in the Luxiangyuan area. There are many government offices, Taoist temples, private gardens, large and small shops, hotels and teahouses in that area. The environment and sanitation are the best, and the life is convenient and comfortable.  , Of course, the premise is that you can afford it.  However, in Lu Zhi's opinion, those who can afford to live in the luxury cabin of the Ningbo ship must not be short of the money.

    However, Qin Lei's bodyguard understood his master's intentions, and insisted on choosing this quiet residence in the middle of the city.  Early the next morning, the two brought Qin's father and son to Huaishu Lane to look at the house.  The landlord also arrived for a while, seeing that the renter was a decent old man, he naturally felt satisfied, opened the courtyard door and invited Qin Lei and his son in.

    The father and father went in and took a look, and found that this small courtyard was very satisfactory.  As soon as you enter the door, you will see a horizontal and long patio, with left and right wing rooms on both sides, and directly opposite is the living room with long windows to the floor, where guests and banquets are held.  There are secondary rooms on both sides of the living room, behind which there are wooden escalators leading to the second floor, and behind it is the back patio, whose depth is only half of the front patio, and there is a well.  Behind the back patio is a single-story attached house with a slope, which is used as a kitchen, miscellaneous room and storage room.  There are entrances and exits at the front and back of the whole house. The front is composed of the courtyard wall and the gable wall of the wing room. The door frame is made of stone and matched with black lacquered thick wooden door leaves; the rear wall is roughly the same height as the front wall, forming a nearly closed space.  Therefore, although it is located in a busy city, it still has the advantage of a high wall and a deep courtyard, which is quiet in the middle of the noise.  The most rare thing is that there is a locust tree in the front yard, which is very lush. In summer, half of the yard is shaded. There is a small table and a few bamboo chairs, which are convenient for eating and enjoying the coolness;  It is clean water, you can get water without going out.

    90% of the furnishings inside and outside the house are new. According to the landlord, this yard was purchased by his younger brother.  After a short stay, my younger brother's family moved to Luzon and asked him to rent out the house before leaving.  First, the rent in Shanghai is expensive, and it is a waste to be idle. Second, the house must be popular, otherwise it will soon collapse.

    Both parties agree, the sale is naturally not difficult to negotiate, the only difference is that the Qin family and his son only want to sign for half a year, but the landlord hopes that the longer the better, after some arguments, they finally signed for one year and paid half a year's rent first.  .  After receiving the contract and the bank note of the Huilian number, the landlord happily left.

    Lu Zhi dried up the ink on the contract and handed it to Nachu for safekeeping, and it was time to say goodbye.  Although there was no fire at home, there was a restaurant on the front street, Shen Mo asked someone to order takeaway, treated him to a table, and rewarded him with a silver ticket of one hundred taels, thanking him for his busy work these two days.

    Lu Zhi was overwhelmed by the flattery, and the banquet was happy, but he refused to accept the bank notes. He said that it was difficult for Master Qin to pay at the beginning, and the prices in Shanghai were high.

    Qin Lei said with a smile: "Just hold it, I won't be poor in three to five years."

    "Then thank you, Master Qin." Lu Zhi no longer refused, put it away happily, and said more and more intimately in his words: "Master Qin will have something to do in the future, so naturally my master will take care of it, but it's not a big deal and it's not easy to bother him.  Right? Just ask Brother Tieshan to find me, it¡¯s not a matter of life or death, and I can usually handle it.¡± He took out a pencil and wrote his address on a piece of paper.

    Qin Lei was naturally happy to express his thanks.  After drinking for an hour, Lu Zhi got up to say goodbye, and Qin Lei personally delivered it to the street before turning back.

    Back home, Nachu was already directing two bodyguards, Tie Shan and Ma Yuan, to fetch water to clean the house.  Two strong young men were accused of running around. One moved out all the tables, chairs and benches in the house, and the other came to the well platform and put down the bucket on the windlass to fetch water.

    Seeing this scene, Qin Lei smiled, rolled up his sleeves and said, "Whatever you want me to do, the lady just tells you." Without outsiders, there is no need to hide it anymore, soPaper-thin and lined with a bright color shirt, it looks great.  "

    "This one is also very thin." San Niangzi said as she touched another fabric.

    "This is a popular western cloth nowadays. It is also characterized by its lightness and light color. Last year's annual Jinling Flower Fair, Qinhuai Ming Shuli Sanniang used this material to make a light shirt.  Wearing it on the body, Zhang Lihua's laurel palace neon dress, standing in the wind, is charming and charming, floating like a fairy, which makes people astonished as heaven and man. This kind of western cloth also doubles its value immediately. Although it is expensive, but fortunately it is versatile. It must be worn in the closet.  There must be one." The female clerk has repeated this rhetoric countless times, and she has memorized it by heart.

    "I bought it, I bought it." The third lady nodded without blinking. She was really a different person from the housekeeper who was haggling with the landlord for a few dollars earlier.

    Seeing him like this, the shopkeeper knew that the fat sheep was coming Oh no, the big customer, so he put aside his work, went to the battle himself, and recommended the clothes inside to San Niangzi.  Because it needs to be matched with bright colors, the fabrics are all bright red, crow blue, or even bright yellow.  The third lady was fine, she had been silently watching from the side, and finally couldn't help saying: "You are so bold. The court strictly stipulates that the wives of scholars and concubines are not allowed to use 'big red, crow blue, yellow', and those who violate it will be charged with trespassing."  Discussion. Look at how many violations you have here."

    "" The shopkeeper tilted his head to look at the silence, and said with a smile, "Did this master just come back from Beijing or from Luzon?"

    "Lu Song, what's the matter?" Shen Mo asked in confusion.

    "No wonder, you haven't been back for twenty or thirty years." The shopkeeper said with a smile, "What you are talking about is the old emperor's calendar. I am fifty-seven years old and have worked in a clothing store for forty years. If you want to talk about what women should wear  I'm sure you know better than you what not to wear." Then he dropped his book bag and said, "Emperor Taizu stipulated that gold embroidered brocade silk should not be used for men's and women's clothes, only silk and plain yarn should be used, and jewelry and bracelets should not be used.  Use gold, jade, pearls and emeralds instead of silver, and boots are not allowed to be made into patterns or decorated with money. Anyone who violates the law will be punished.¡± He also ordered that the folk women¡¯s dresses should only be purple, not gold embroidery, and their gowns should only be purple, green, peach red and other light colors.  It is not allowed to use bright red, crow blue, or yellow. There is also an article in the "Law of the Great Ming Dynasty" on "clothing violations", which stipulates that those who usurp one hundred sticks, and all their utensils and clothing will be confiscated. Am I right, my lord?  "

    Silence can be regarded as having learned the eloquence of the Shanghainese, and nodded helplessly: "Unexpectedly, you still understand the law so well."

    "It's not that I know the law, it's that anyone who enters the industry must memorize these rules." The shopkeeper said with a smile, "But if you take a closer look, if all the female customers in this shop follow the old imperial calendar, they will all have to be beaten to death."  ?¡± He covered his mouth with a smile and said, ¡°You don¡¯t know what to do.  '

    "Not at all." Mo Mo smiled awkwardly, and turned to look at the nearby female guests. Sure enough, either the color or the style violated the regulations, and some even wore pearl walkers that could only be worn by first-class married women  ¡­¡ª¡ª

    This is definitely not a word count, because describing a brand new world is definitely more difficult than laying out a plot.  I want to use as much life as possible to write out the changes in society, and then gradually draw out the ending, so as not to be unfinished.

    Many people felt that there seemed to be a lack of description, yes, that is the life changes of the bourgeoisie.  However, the actual situation at that time was that there was a huge difference between the north and the south, there was almost nothing to write about in Beijing, and the eyes could not leave the protagonist to go to the south, so there was this paragraph.

    It is enough to write a book like this once in a lifetime.  If I am not serious in the future, please prove that I have been so serious (To be continued.
