Chapter 556

Half a carpenter is a good yin and yang, this sentence Xu Jingxing has really heard people say, but it is mainly the old people who say this, young people and even the middle-aged people of the previous generation of young people don't know much about it.

The word "Yin Yang" in the Daocheng area is "Mr. Yin Yang", and it generally refers to those practitioners who are buried in the grave and preside over the funeral.

Why do you say that half a carpenter can be a good yin and yang?This starts with the culture of traditional architectural site selection. Let’s not mention the points such as gold points for the time being. When it comes to wood products, there are many things to pay attention to. The most typical ones are the size of doors and windows, and the size of doors. What is the size, what is the size of the main entrance, and what should be the size of the side door?

And these dimensions involve the Luban ruler that Zhao Changfa just mentioned. This is a ruler specially used to measure the good and bad of Yangzhai. , So in the past, those people were very particular about the size of the doors and windows, at least the size was on the auspicious number, and the more complicated ones had to be adjusted according to the acupoints of the heavenly stems and earthly branches and the Yangzhai.

This is the case for the yang house, and the same for the yin house. The requirements are even more complicated. The size, shape, pattern, etc. of the coffin also have their own standards, and there is nothing wrong with it.However, Dinglan ruler is mainly used to make private houses. The function of Dinglan ruler is almost the same as that of Luban ruler, but the specifications are different and the purposes are opposite. However, in the hands of Feng Shui masters and carpenters, this Luban ruler and Dinglan ruler are two magic weapons. Learn to use them With these two rulers, you won't be afraid of being hungry in the countryside.

Of course, nowadays people don’t pay so much attention to it. How many doors and windows to open is basically determined by temperament and preference. Only in rural areas may there be some residual customs, such as "opening a single door two feet eight Najib"" There are sayings such as "big double doors open five feet six inches and six attract money" and so on. People don't ask why, just open such a door and give me this size.

Not only doors and windows, but also all kinds of furniture can use these things. For example, if some couples are at odds, find a carpenter who knows how to measure the size of the bed to see if the size is not in place. Do you need to make adjustments? kind.

After a long time, don't these carpenters who know how to measure luck and fortune by size mean the same thing as the legendary Mr. Yin Yang?

Moreover, the yin and yang gentlemen say some mysterious and unpredictable words, most of which are empty words and cannot be completely trusted by others; but the carpenters are different, they don't say anything, they take a Luban ruler to measure, it is bad or good, big guy It is easier to be convinced if you can see clearly and plainly.

So the saying that "a half carpenter is a good yin and yang" has spread.

Xu Jingxing had come into contact with Lu Banchi when he first started making furniture, but he didn't really believe in those things, nor did he delve into it.But if you really want him to talk, he can talk a lot. If you really want to pretend, you can go to rural areas to cheat some money.

But when Zhao Changfa interrupted, Taoist Xuanyang really believed that Xu Jingxing had a certain knowledge of Feng Shui, so he thought for a while and said, "That's fine, let's find a place to sit down and talk slowly, this kind of thing can't be done overnight, Right?"

Xu Jingxing naturally had no objection, anyway, he had memorized and drawn all the details of this giant nanmu pile, so he didn't have to look at it before starting the work.

So they followed Taoist Xuanyang and his group back to Jinfu Hotel.

When I came out of the Jinfu Hotel, there were still dozens of people, but now there are only less than ten people left, and most of them are from the Xuanyang Taoist side, and the salary exceeds one million. The work basically fell into the hands of Xu Jingxing, a young and excessive young man.I have to say that God is quite good at playing tricks on people.

Back at the hotel, Taoist Xuanyang brewed a pot of tea himself, and said with a smile, "Try this superb tea that has absorbed the aura of heaven, earth, sun, and moon. Hehe, I usually don't want to drink it."

Xu Jingxing chuckled, "What kind of good tea? Are you talking so mysterious?"

"Laoshan tea, but it's not ordinary Laoshan tea, it's made by frying Mingqian leaves picked from a few wild tea trees in the back mountain of Taiqing Palace in Laoshan. I fried it myself," Taoist Xuanyang said triumphantly. .

He took a sip noncommittally, smacked his lips to feel it for a moment, and nodded, "It's a bit different from ordinary Laoshan tea, and the taste is better. It's obviously boiling hot tea, but it can taste a cool feeling, which is amazing."

"I knew Master Xiao Xu was a man of knowledge," Taoist Xuanyang was even happier, "Speaking of which, I have been drinking this tea for almost ten years, but no one has ever tasted that feeling. Master Xiao Xu is the first , hehe, the so-called wine is too small to have a bosom friend, so I'm afraid I don't have a bosom friend for this tea, it feels good to find a bosom friend."

"Hey, let's get on with the business," he interrupted Taoist Xuanyang's eloquent speech. This Taoist priest was indeed a talkative one.

Only then did Priest Xuanyang nod his head, "That's it. We plan to set up a feng shui bureau to suppress evil spirits in Dacheng Mall. I won't tell you the specific name. It's meaningless. The name is just a gimmick. The effect is to suppress evil spirits." Sha, because the lion was called Pixiu in ancient times, and it has a strong anti-evil effect in Feng Shui metaphysics, so we decided to find a lion, because Dacheng Mall is relatively large in scale and very popular. So it’s a big one.”

Xu Jingxing was a little puzzled, "Then why not use an iron lion or a copper lion? Big lions like the Cangzhou Iron Lion are also good. You can definitely find a smaller version of the Cangzhou Iron Lion."

Taoist Xuanyang shook his head hastily, "We have considered it, but metal lions and stone lions are too cold, so it is no problem to use them outdoors, but it is not so good to use them indoors. Therefore, I finally chose wood, and chose nanmu with warmer physical properties. Nanmu is warm and soft, and has a strong effect of blocking and absorbing evil spirits. Moreover, the luster of nanmu is soft, warm and bright, which is exactly in line with our needs. .”

"That's it, then this is the material factor, and the rest is the shape, right?" He nodded as if he had realized something, and when he saw Taoist Xuanyang was about to speak, he hurriedly stopped him: "Don't talk, I will ask you to answer." , so that my thinking will be clearer, understand?"

Xuanyang Taoist nodded obediently, very obedient.But what he was facing was Xu Jingxing, who was so obedient when Xu Jingxing restrained him with his previous actions. If other woodcarvers talked to him like this, he would be very upset even if he didn't go back - he, Xuanyang, also has an identity How can a person be called around by others?
