In the past two years, the living standards of the public have improved, and it is not uncommon to live in luxury houses. Compared with ancient times, life is indeed richer. This makes people wonder, in ancient times, who could live in a mansion? If you first think of a landlord who has no evil, then you should have some understanding of the deeply rooted bully Liu Wencai. How bustling is its home? Look at the ancestral home of 77 years ago, which is still well preserved, and the degree of luxury is not dare to think.
The value of the Liu family's ancestral home
The official construction of Liu Wencai's home was about the last year of the Qing Dynasty. No one could have imagined that building a mansion would have gone through a long history.
The building itself is of great significance to the later construction of houses, it can be said that the vast majority of manors and mansions in China are in accordance with the construction of the Liu family's ancestral home, and have completed one huge project after another, and it can be seen that such a building scale is undoubtedly very large.
The completion of the entire ancestral house has been the last time of the Republic of China, the owner of Liu Wencai's manor has a compelling story, after the founding of New China, Liu Family Manor has also been recorded in history, in order to warn the unique historical and folk characteristics of future generations.
The time of the construction of the Liu family ancestral house is relatively special, it has witnessed the change and development of an era, and the bricks and tiles used in the construction of the ancestral house represent the historical literature of that time.
Secondly, when Liu Wencai built this manor, he incorporated a large number of Western aesthetic ideas and design concepts. In addition to the manor, there are many exotic flowers and plants, and more exaggerated is that some of them are transported directly from the West.
The combination of imitation Western elements and China's own "courtyard" style, the architectural value of Liu's Manor has increased by more than one grade. Finally, the liu family's ancestral home is a well-preserved collection of cultural relics. It can be used as a reference for future generations. From ordinary people's residences to luxurious mansions, The Liu family's ancestral residence is not only precious to the landlord Liu Wencai.
The untold secret behind the ancestral home
The ancestral house looks bright and beautiful, but there is an unknown secret behind it. Liu Wencai has a warlord brother, the Liu family itself is well-off, and after the brother became a warlord, he accumulated contacts everywhere, laying the foundation for Liu Wencai to run amok in the local area.
Relying on his brother's relationship, Liu Wencai, who could not read a single character, successively became a local official, accelerating the policy of large taxes, and turning the land and money worked hard by countless poor peasants in the local area into ashes in a short time.
Liu Wencai divided most of the local land into his own territory, and if farmers wanted to use the land to earn money, they had to pay a deposit to Liu Wencai. On the surface, it seems to conform to the rules, but in fact, Liu Wencai has already made plans to exploit the local people.
From time to time, local officials were bought off, and pressure was exerted on the people for no reason, and many peasants were displaced, which was in stark contrast to Liu Wencai's extravagant life. In addition to the fields, Liu Wencai also used his position at that time to arbitrarily judge many unfair cases, which was really outrageous.
Liu Wencai, who encountered warlord chaos, continued to play the role of a bully by relying on his previous local foundation. As long as you are a little unhappy, you will take out your anger on the people.
When he decided to renovate his house, he forced peasant workers to work hard for him, and no one dared to disobey his orders. Liu Wencai, who intensified his efforts, thus consolidated his title as a landlord and created a high-end mansion belonging to the Liu family.
The descendants of the Liu family who are not blessed
Liu Wencai's deeds have long been infamous in the eyes of the local people, and many people hate Liu Wencai to the bone. Some people wonder why after Liu Wencai's death, his descendants did not succeed his landlord, thus passing on the Liu family's ancestral home? The reason is simple.
From the moment Liu Wencai's brother joined the army and surrendered, Liu Wencai completely lost his due backer. Although he has accumulated a lot of wealth for the Liu family, his descendants are more than one.
His eldest son was infected with the habit of gambling, often stretching out his hands in clothes, opening his mouth with food, and taking the initiative to ask Liu Wencai for money when he had no money. In this way, most of the money obtained by Liu Wencai from forcibly expropriating land was also spent on this "loser".
Later, the eldest son got tuberculosis and died of illness. Liu Wencai's second son went to join the army, saving a little image and reputation for the liu family that was spurned by people, and could only live by selling strength for a lifetime.
The third son never married, and the fourth son died in a car accident. This can't help but make the world sigh that the doom of the landlord Liu Wencai has finally appeared. I thought that the history of the Liu family would end with him after Liu Wencai's death, but it was obvious that the predecessors planted trees, and the descendants could not take advantage of the cold, and the anger of the people for Liu Wencai was all vented to his descendants, which was really regrettable.
If Liu Wencai has done the greatest thing in his life, it is to build schools and highways at his own expense. It is just that evil is greater than good, and for the people, he will always be the landlord who has no evil and no forgiveness. In 1948, Liu Wencai died of illness in the local area, and Liu Wencai, who was uncared for at the funeral, ended his legendary life. Only the ancestral house of the Liu family is still remembered by everyone.
