Real cattle: 65.438+0 billion yuan is not for sale. Zhengzhou's "most luxurious" nail house turned out to be a house with a history of 270 years.

Introduction: In Dongshima Village, Zhengzhou High-tech Zone, Henan Province, there is an ancient residence with a history of 270 years during the Qianlong period-Renjia Ancient House, which is known as the most "luxurious" nail house in Zhengzhou, the "big house door" in Zhengzhou, and the punching place for new network celebrities in Zhengzhou. Tourists will explore Ren's ancient house for you this time.

People's ancient house was built in Qianlong of Qing Dynasty for forty years, and it was completed from around AD 1775 to AD 1838 (Daoguang 18), that is, the year when the plaque of "Auxiliary Wing State Administration" was hung, and it went through Qianlong, Jiaqing, Daoguang, Xianfeng, Tongzhi, Guangxu and Xianfeng.

Renjia ancient residence, with a history of 270 years, is a typical representative of official residence in ancient buildings in Henan, with magnificent architectural momentum and exquisite craftsmanship.

It can be traced back to the construction of Ren Junxuan (Ren Derun's great-grandfather) at the earliest. It took four generations to complete the construction, but it continued to be completed in Ren Derun's generation (Ren Jinling's great-grandfather) and has been passed down for seven generations.

Dongshima Village was called "Tianxiangzhai" in ancient times, and it was a bustling place for merchants from south to north. Renjiayuan has naturally become a landmark building. At that time, Ren Jiayuan was honored as a "gatehouse" by local people, which shows its great influence at that time.

Now, dozens of columns and wooden stakes erected in front of his former residence are the most powerful testimony of that glorious history at that time.

According to Ren Jinling, the descendant of the ancient house, some ancestors once served as important officials of the imperial court. The house used to be a seven-entrance courtyard, but now only two courtyards are reserved, and even the horse-tied stakes outside the house are only 10 mu.

The gate is an ancient gatehouse building, on which is hung the horizontal plaque of "auxiliary wing national politics" given by Daoguang 18. Calligraphy is vigorous and powerful, and the pen is vigorous and powerful. Ren Derun, Minister of Political Affairs, signed the letter. According to the official rank of the Qing dynasty, there are "nine grades and eighteen grades", and Ren Derun, the chief secretary, really ranks among the second grade officials.

Renjia Ancient House is divided into two courtyards, 44.5 meters long from north to south and 22.5 meters long from east to west. There is a 1 mountain screen at the entrance, and the mountain screen is carved with wooden doors, all of which are hard mountain gray tile buildings.

There are 3 front yards, front cloisters, carved wooden doors, four-corner brick carvings, carved beams and painted buildings in the living room, and colorful paintings; There are 3 houses in the backyard, which are higher than the front yard and are closed brick structures.

Due to the advancement of urbanization, Dongshima Village has become the object of demolition. In order to preserve the ancient house, people naturally became "nail households".

One night, the construction unit broke ground in the east of Ren Jia's ancient house, which caused fierce opposition from Ren Jia. The two sides clashed for the first time because of border protection. Finally, the police intervened and the construction was stopped.

In their view, this is something left by our ancestors, and now there are fewer and fewer such things, so we must stick to it. Therefore, Ren Jinling has repeatedly asked for reasonable protection methods for ancient houses. The government has also designated a 30-meter protected area for this ancient house.

A wealthy businessman once approached Ren Jinling and offered to pay 654.38 billion yuan for the old house, but Ren Jinling immediately refused. He said he wouldn't sell it even if it was 654.38 billion yuan, because now he won't sell the old house handed down from generation to generation.

Because the old man in Ren Jinling is used to living in poverty, he can't believe that the sudden value of the old house is 1 billion yuan, and the news that the old house is valued at 65.438+0 billion yuan has also spread.

Ren Jinling said that in the old society, when there was no food, my grandfather adopted my aunt to other people's homes and lived on money. Even so, he didn't sell the house. Besides, there is food and drink in these days. Although life is hard, it is practical. How can I betray my ancestors? This is going to be scolded by my ancestors, so I have been persistent in protecting my ancestors.

The demolition of Renjia Courtyard in Zhengzhou, because of the dispute with real estate developers, alarmed the Henan government departments. After on-the-spot investigation by the cultural relics department, it is considered that the historical relics of Renjia Courtyard are of high value, which cannot be estimated by money alone and demolition is not allowed.

In 2009, Renjia Ancient House was listed as a cultural relic protection unit in Zhengzhou. In 20 17, Renjia's ancient house was approved by Henan Provincial Cultural Relics Bureau and became the "Zhengzhou Tianxiang Museum", which was open to tourists free of charge.

Tianxiang Museum is full of exquisite brick carvings and wood carvings. Looking closely everywhere, the woodcarving patterns are complicated, the Kirin at the door is lifelike, and the woodcarving on the doors and windows of the east and west wings, such as "Xianhe Haiyun, Double Deer Herb, Kirin Pine Seeds", is exquisite and simple.

The courtyard in front of the main hall is also strewn at random. The blue bricks and black stones on the platform are silent, and the horses are tied and quietly waiting for the arrival of their owners.

Pushing the door into the exhibition hall, I saw various collections such as blue and white porcelain, copper tea sets, robes of the Qing Dynasty, wooden farm tools, pen, ink, paper and inkstone, which restored the bits and pieces of life, brought great visual and inner impact to the audience, and felt the deep-rooted existence and inheritance of China culture in this ancient house.

In the turbulent years, in order to protect Renjia Courtyard from the destruction of war, Renjia once buried tea sets and utensils handed down by ancestors in the ground, and also dug up and hid the five-ridged six beasts on the roof: lions, bulls, phoenixes and fish.

In addition, they painted a layer of mud on the wonderful carvings in the courtyard. Because of this, Ren's quadrangle was not greatly damaged.

Today, the owner of Renjia Ancient Courtyard is named Ren Jinling, who is also the seventh generation descendant of the old house. The Stone Man family has lived in this old house for generations. They persistently guard the foundation of the family and will never allow others to destroy it.

Speaking of inheritance, Ren Jinling, director of Tianxiang Museum, aged 6 1 year, is expanding and renovating the new exhibition hall in the old house. He said that Tianxiang Museum should be repackaged to become a teaching base, and the school can organize students to come to Tianxiang to give lectures on history around cultural relics.

In addition, in order to better communicate with the society and the public, we will carry out in-depth cooperation with the news media and invite experts and scholars to record programs and publicize at all stages of the exhibition.
