Okay, I don't like Trump, and Resistance means something to me, but it's because my main thought is that any economico-socio-political system that can't do better than offering people a choice for Ruler like the last one is seriously busted and needs radical replacement - well, radical alteration, at least. Short of that, the planet will only suffer further disasters like the one we're embarked on now, and have been embarked on for quite a while.
As for Napoleon, I can't imagine how one can imagine that one is away from politics anywhere these days, though rock climbing and screwing perhaps come close.

I think I had to take my lease for my new flat when I moved in in December, haven't had to since, although I've been in & out of the country twice since then, most recently in mid-March. Registration has been a little more time-consuming recently, as police staff visited each other to figure out how to do it (used to be very simple), but all ways polite and basically unproblematic for me.

For me, 15 hours by hard sleeper on an ordinary Chinese train beats sitting economy class on a plane for 15 hours any day.

Good to know, thanks, GoKunming.

Not sure what you want, but 'sub-rooms' is simply confusing - a room is a room is a room, I've never heard of a 'sub-room', and there's no need to create a neologism here.
And no, I don't think the English language needs the term sanfangzhaobi, though you could give it alongside your translation of its meaning, since it is a standardized Chinese term for the form of the house.
