For several days, Lin Jue had nothing else to do, so he only began to renovate the public housing according to the plan list, not only to improve the environment and people's morale of the public housing, but also to find something to do for himself. Lin Jue didn't want to sit there and watch the two old guys dozing off with their mouths open, and he didn't want to sit opposite Yang Xiu with big eyes. Although Yang Xiu is not bad, after all, he has not known each other for a long time, and he has nothing to say. The words are polite, but they are also boring.

There are many craftsmen in charge of the restoration work in the palace, hundreds of courtyards and thousands of houses in the huge inner and outer palaces, countless tables, chairs, benches, beds, windows, etc., all of which need to be maintained by special personnel. Yang Xiu knew the eunuchs in charge of these craftsmen, and Lin Jue paid money to give benefits, and easily got a few craftsmen.

With craftsmen, the rest is easy. The roof leaks, and the craftsman moves the ladder to the house to rebuild the tiles, which is actually a minor problem. Under Lin Jue's strong advocacy, the old furniture, tables, chairs, bookcases, etc. in the house were all moved out and thrown in the yard. The dilapidated doors and windows were all smashed.

Lord Jiang and Master Hu smacked their lips and shook their heads, even saying that Lin Jue was messing around, so that they had to stand in the courtyard, and there was no place to sleep and doze off. Saying that Lin Jue is really a blind toss to do this, what is there to toss in such a broken place? I also spent my own money to repair it, and I really went crazy.

Lin Jueke didn't care about their complaints, he bought new doors, windows, tables and chairs outside the palace and brought them in, and a day later, the new doors and windows were installed in place, and the floor was leveled in the house and a brand-new table, chair and bookcase were placed. Then put a few pots of flowers and plants, a few calligraphy and paintings on the table. Suddenly, the dilapidated musty public housing was completely renewed.

The two old guys got a recliner made of green bamboo and rattan grass that Lin Jue ordered for them alone, and when they lay on the chair and swayed around, the two old guys couldn't keep their mouths together happily and didn't complain anymore.

This was followed by the renovation of several small houses and warehouses on night duty. After the windows were opened, the floors were laid, and the porches were built to connect the rooms, the pattern changed dramatically. It has changed from a dark and low house to a small house with bright and clean windows. After a dozen pots of flowers and plants were placed on the porch made of waste wooden planks, it was almost different from before.

Next, there is the transformation of the yard. According to Lin Jue's vision, several flower beds were built. A main road was paved with red bricks leading to the porch of the public house and the living house. A small pool was dug in the middle, and a rockery was made of several large bluestones brought from the lawn behind the Cloud Palace. In the south corner of the courtyard, there was a grapevine from the Western Regions that was sponsored by the palace eunuchs (secretly dug up and sold for money).

In six days, the entire public housing courtyard changed dramatically. The public house is neat and bright, and the books that are neatly stacked after drying no longer smell of mold, and the air carries a faint pine aroma from new furniture. Sunlight shines through the long carved windows and shines on the flowers and plants in the house, making it look like a picture.

Not to mention in the small courtyard, the path goes around the rockery between the flower beds, like a garden. The bluestone tables and chairs under the grape trellis are quite interesting. In the pool, there are a few koi fish in the lotus pond of the imperial garden stolen by eunuchs, and they are even more vibrant. Two small vegetable furrows were specially opened up behind the public house for farming and amusing in leisure time.

The last task was to throw away all the worn-out teapots and bowls and replace them with brand new purple clay pots and celadon bowls. Lin Jue also gave Yang Xiujiang and Hu a new set of official uniforms. Official uniforms can be made at your own expense, but you need a garment workshop designated by the imperial court to make them. These people naturally refused to spend that money, but Lin Jue could afford it, so each of them made a set of outfits. Lin Jue's meaning is naturally that since this place is neat and clean, he can't still wear shabby official clothes to spoil the scenery. Of course, there is also a layer of meaning, Lin Jue hopes that they will start anew and abandon the decadent life of the past.

On the evening of the sixth day, Lin Jue took a few adults and a servant, and the five of them talked and laughed and walked around the small courtyard, taking a look at every room and every corner of the courtyard, which was regarded as celebrating the completion of the transformation. Yang Xiu and the others were naturally overjoyed, they never thought that this boring place they stayed in would become such a pleasing appearance. As soon as the environment changed, the mood also changed, and the words were not so yin and yang, so it didn't matter what happened.

Lin Jue took advantage of everyone's happiness and proposed to change the duty system. Lin Jue's suggestion was that since there were no errands to do here, why bother everyone to be tied here. Lin Jue hoped that each person would be on duty for one day, and the rest of the time would be at their disposal, and each would do their own things. But this proposal was quickly rejected by Lord Jiang and Lord Hu, because although there was nothing to do, there was an attendance system after all. If people don't come to the attendance register, they will not be punished. Besides, both old fellows thought that they had nothing to do, and that they might as well stay here and not dare take the risk.

Lin Jue was not discouraged, and then put forward another extremely bold plan. Lin Jue said that he was willing to take out the monthly income and share it with others, in exchange for not having to be on duty here. I will occasionally come to gangsters, but if I don't come when I have something, I hope that a few people will keep it secret for me, sign in on the attendance for myself, and hide the lie for myself when someone comes to check.

This idea startled everyone, Lord Lin didn't want to stay here at all, so he came up with such an idea. This idea is bold, if it is known from above, Lin Jue will not be able to eat and walk around. The two old guys were very hesitant in their hearts, because this was not a small risk, but they could get an extra four taels of silver every month, and this temptation was really not small.

When he was hesitating, Yang Xiu took the initiative to ask for his share, and Lord Lin's money was divided equally between the two adults. This completely broke down the psychological defense line of Lord Hu and Lord Jiang. The two of them summed up in a low voice, although this matter is risky, but in fact, the risk is not so great. There is no one to care about here, and even if they do, it is not difficult to prevaricate. After all, there was a precedent before, and many times when people from the academy came to check the situation on the job, Yang Xiu hid in a corner of the palace and couldn't find it. Later, it was gone.

In fact, the people of the Hallym Academy also knew that the people here were not rushing, and they were low, and they didn't want to offend them too much. What's more, I have to get an extra six taels of silver every month, which is a huge amount of money. Take advantage of the opportunity to earn more money before retirement, and also have more pension money in the future.

Master Jiang and Master Hu gritted their teeth and stomped their feet, and when they made a decision, they agreed with Lin Jue's opinion. The inspired Jiang Daren also asked Yang Xiu if he wanted to do the same, and they could also keep it a secret for Yang Xiu. Yang Xiuda rolled his eyes, and secretly scolded the two old things in his heart for seeing the money, and being greedy enough to swallow the elephant, and they came to fight their own idea again. I am not as carefree as Lord Lin, and the silver is spent like flowing water. I have to eat on it for my money.

Lin Jue was very happy in his heart, if this plan could be successful, he would just take a position, and a lot of time would be at his disposal. I'd rather go to the Grand Theater to help out and wander around with the little county lord Green Dance than waste my time in this place. The business of the Grand Theater is booming, and a new batch of actors have begun to perform on stage one after another.

However, Lin Jue didn't plan to do too much, he still had to come to sit every once in a while, if there was no shadow at all, it wouldn't be too good. Although the three adults here shouldn't say anything, it's hard to be targeted, so it's good to pretend from time to time.

……

The weather is getting hotter and hotter, and the summer in the capital is quite different from the summer in the south. Although the summer in the south is also hot, the heat is not as direct as the summer in the north. Take Bianliang City as an example, as long as you walk in the sun during the day, the direct sunlight can blow your skin up. The rays of the sun are like hot whips on you, making you miserable. When you walk in the sun, it's like walking in the middle of a raging fire, leaving you with hot smoke from your nostrils to your lungs. But as soon as you go to the shade, the temperature will naturally drop, and people will feel much better.

However, the temperature at night is no different, and it is impossible to sleep at all in the middle of the night. There are big rivers in Bianliang City, and there are many lakes. The water of the river and lake, which is soaked in the sun during the day, begins to emit heat at night. When the night breeze blows, the heat wave penetrates thousands of homes, making people feel like they are baking in a steamer.

Therefore, the time for the people of Bianliang to fall asleep is generally postponed to after the third watch, which is also a helpless thing, and they must wait for these heat waves to be almost washed away by the night breeze before they can sleep peacefully. This is also an important reason for the popularity of the night market in Beijing since the beginning of summer. People can't sleep peacefully, lighting lamps costs oil and wax, and they can't sit in the dark and be bitten by mosquitoes, so they can only drag their families to the long street in droves. The night market here is bustling with lights, even if it doesn't cost money, it's good to take a walk and see the excitement.

Lin Jue also had a bad sleep during this time. The weather is hot, and I have something on my mind, and I have to get up early in the morning to go to the public house in the palace, so I can only sleep for a few hours a day. In fact, the mansion of Daxiangguo Temple has paid great attention to the function of summer shelter, not only the trees in front of the house and the back house are lush, but also the hollow compartment above the house is to prevent the radiation of temperature. But even so, the summer days were not easy.

However, after the things in the public house were arranged, Lin Jue was able to sleep well. Because he doesn't have to get up early. The summer mornings are still cool and pleasant, and it's time to sleep.

Early this morning, because he didn't have to go to the public house to be on duty, Lin Jue specially said hello, so that the little county lord didn't have to wake up himself early in the morning, and he had a beautiful sleep. However, just when he was sleeping with Zhengxiang, he was woken up by the little county lord.

"Husband, I'm sorry to disturb your sleep." When Lin Jue opened his eyes, the little county lord said with an apologetic face.

She actually hoped that Lin Jue could get a good night's sleep. During this time, she saw Lin Jue's torment in her eyes. The official was plotted by someone, and the matter of Lin Bonian turning his face with him tormented his heart, and the matter of Fang Huanqiu, who came back from the dead, has always made him difficult to let go. So during this time, Lin Jue obviously lost a lot of weight, his eye sockets were also a little black, and his spirit was not good. Although Lin Jue still looked like he didn't care about giggling, the little county lord still knew when he sighed behind his back. His man is such a person, and he has big things in his heart, but he can't see it on his face.
