Siheyuan: Domineering life

Chapter 130 Single-family courtyard

He remembered that Yang Jun said years ago that the old house also needed to be modified, but he didn't expect that business would come to his door so quickly.

"Pick mine."

Yang Jun took the cigarette from him, clamped it to his ear, took out his own Chinese cigarette and handed it over.

Lao Wu chuckled. Seeing Yang Jun take out a better cigarette, he didn't show any pretense. He took it, put it to his nose and sniffed it vigorously for a few times, then put it back into his cigarette case and lit one. He brought his own cigarettes.

"You guessed it right. I came here this time just to ask you to decorate the old house."

Lao Wu took a puff of cigarette and squinted his eyes: "No problem, is it still the same as before?"

Yang Jun nodded: "Well, just decorate it as before."

The two of them didn't waste any time and settled on the decoration in just a few words.

After the matter was discussed, Yang Jun saw that Lao Wu still looked angry, so he asked.

"Lao Wu, what's wrong? Who made you angry again?"

"Hey, don't mention it. It's unlucky for me to meet an unreasonable owner during the Chinese New Year."

Yang Jun: "What happened?"

When Lao Wu heard this, he became even more angry.

"Grandma, we negotiated a business deal a few years ago, but who would have thought that when I went there this morning, they wouldn't let me renovate it again, and I still spent a few dollars on materials in vain?"

When Yang Jun heard this, he also felt that it was quite unlucky. The agreed-upon business was gone as soon as it was gone. It would be uncomfortable for anyone, not to mention the few dollars of material money spent in vain.

Decorating a house is mostly a verbal agreement. There is no contract at all, let alone liquidated damages. If you terminate the contract unilaterally like this, at the very least you have to pay for the materials.

"Why do you suddenly regret something you agreed upon?" Yang Jun asked.

In fact, he also wanted to understand why the owner of the family regretted it.

You know, in this era, everyone is very trustworthy. If there are no major changes, they will generally not do anything that damages their reputation. Even if there are major changes, they will negotiate with others and compensate them appropriately. loss.

"Hey, what else can I do? They want to sell the house." Lao Wu said a little disappointed.

Sell ​​a house?
When Yang Jun heard these words, he suddenly felt particularly sensitive.

Yesterday, he was still worried about Yangmei's wedding house, but then he heard that someone was selling the house. How could he not be excited?

You know, there are very few houses that can be traded these days. Even if there is a deal, it is called house exchange, which means exchanging one's own house for someone else's house. As long as both parties have no objections, just go through the formalities and there will be nothing in between. Any money transaction is commonly known as house exchange.

Now when he heard the words 'selling house', Yang Jun suddenly thought of buying it no matter what.

"Master Lao Wu, who wants to sell the house? Where is the house? What kind of house is it?"

Yang Jun asked hurriedly.

Lao Wu was stunned: "Director Yang wants to buy a house?"

Yang Jun: "Well, let me introduce you to Master Lao Wu."

Lao Wu saw Yang Jun's serious look, so he talked about the house.

The house is on the Jinshui Bridge side. It is a typical "kou"-shaped quadrangle. The quadrangle is not big, with only one courtyard. There are three main rooms, two wing rooms each, and three reverse rooms, making a total of ten rooms.

When Yang Jun heard that such a high-quality house was hard to come by, he was ecstatic. Now was the time when he was short of houses, so he had to get this courtyard house no matter what.

"Lao Wu, hurry up and take me to see the house."

Without saying a word, Yang Jun immediately pulled up to Lao Wu to look at the house.Lao Wu didn't expect Yang Jun to be so anxious.

But he was also willing to lead the way, after all, Yang Jun had just given him a big order.

Golden Water Bridge.

It is located in the Forbidden City in the DC District of Sijiucheng City, with the outer Jinshui Bridge and the inner Jinshui Bridge.

Neijinshui Bridge is located on the Jinshui River in the square in front of Taihe Gate in the Forbidden City. It is a series of five single-hole arch coupon-type white marble stone bridges.

The Waijinshui Bridge is a three-hole arch bridge in front of Tiananmen Square and the Taimiao Temple. It is adjacent to the city wall in the north. The bridge railings are beautifully carved and shaped like jade belts. Together with the simple Chinese watches and majestic stone lions, it forms a majestic and majestic scenery.

There are densely packed courtyards everywhere here, and the alleys here are twists and turns. If someone who doesn't know the topography of the place enters rashly, it will definitely be like entering a maze.

Lao Wu led the way and came to the door of a courtyard in a zigzag manner.

Like other courtyard houses, the green tiles, gray walls, and narrow courtyard doors give the whole building an old-fashioned feel.

Lao Wu knocked on the door, and a middle-aged man wearing a gray Chinese tunic suit and glasses came out to open the door. He looked at Yang Jun, then at Lao Wu, and said angrily,
"It's endless, right? It's just a few dollars for materials."

Lao Wu's face darkened, but he still smiled and said, "Comrade Li, you misunderstood, I'm not here to ask for money for materials."

Lao Wu turned around and pointed at Yang Jun behind him: "Aren't you going to sell your house? My brother wants to come over and take a look."

Comrade Li glanced at Yang Jun doubtfully: "Buying a house?"

Yang Jun nodded.

Seeing this, Comrade Li opened the door a little and let them in.

As soon as you enter the courtyard, there is a screen wall with a picture of peonies on it.

Bypassing the screen wall, you go directly into the courtyard. The mahogany corridors and carved doors and windows give off an aura of wealth everywhere.

There are really two heavens inside and outside. With the existence of the screen wall, nothing can be seen outside, but inside, there is a different world. Withered trees are entangled with vines, winding paths lead to seclusion, and the courtyard is paved with water and stone slabs. On both sides are the Linglong Flower Pavilion and the Lotus Pavilion Fish Pond.

As soon as Yang Jun entered the courtyard, he fell in love with it at first sight.

This is a small courtyard house with three main rooms, two east and west wing rooms, and three reverse rooms, totaling ten rooms.

There is also a fish pond of several square meters in the middle of the yard. There is a grape trellis connected between the fish pond and the main house. However, it is winter now and the trellis is full of dead branches and leaves.

This small courtyard is just like Yang Jun imagined, and it is enough for a family to live.

There are three types of courtyard houses: large, medium and small, namely small courtyard, middle courtyard and large courtyard.

The courtyard house he looked at today is a small courtyard house, with a "kou"-shaped structure. The courtyard is large enough and there are many rooms, which is just right for a family.

Most of the middle courtyards have a "Sun"-shaped structure, with two front and back courtyards, usually two rooms in the north, three main rooms with two ears, three rooms in the east and west wings, and another courtyard wall that divides the courtyard into two. The courtyard wall is generally The moon arch is connected to each other, and two inverted rooms are set up in the front yard as the gate of the courtyard.

Large courtyards, commonly known as "big house gates", are mostly structured in the shape of the word "mu", with rooms arranged mainly in the south, five in the north, and seven in the south and seven in the north. Most of them are duplex courtyards. Slightly larger courtyards are also divided into east and west courtyards. Equipped with stables, concierge, etc.

At present, the Nanluoguxiang courtyard where Yang Jun is located is the big courtyard.

After the founding of the People's Republic of China, both the middle courtyard and the large courtyard were used as public places. Some of the courtyards, such as the Wangfu, were used as large courtyards, where many ordinary people lived.

Under the grape trellis, there is a stone table with tea sets on it.

After Comrade Li sat down, he took two upside-down teacups from the tea tray. After filling the tea cups, he raised his right hand to signal them
Drink tea.
