Gu Chen rode for about twenty minutes and came to an alley.
There are no street lights here, but it is very close to the department store, and it is a small two-story building on the main street.
"I'll open the door later." Gu Chen led her to the front door and took out a large bunch of keys from his pocket.
Yes, it's a long list.
Good guy, is this the rent collector?
Gu Chen shined a flashlight, and it took him a while to find the correct key.
As he opened the door, he said sheepishly: "I have bought so many houses in the past two years that I can't find which one is which."
Shen Man was very supportive of his purchase of a house.
After all, if these houses are kept for another ten to twenty years, there is no telling how many times their value will increase.
Even though Jicheng is not big and cannot compare with the capital city, it is still a provincial capital.
The two entered the yard. Shen Man took a general look by the light of a flashlight. The yard was not big, only about eighty square meters. The house was an old two-story building with deep cracks in the wall.
This kind of house is uninhabitable without repairs and will easily collapse.
"Why did you bring me here?" Shen Man didn't think there was anything strange here. After all, they had many houses, including a few on the second floor.
Upon hearing this, Gu Chen smiled mysteriously and led her to the warehouse.
Move a wooden box away and there is a wooden board underneath.
What a guy, it even has a basement!
Shen Man followed him down curiously. The underground walls were all made of bluestone. The terrain was flat and there were no depressions or collapses.
Flashing the flashlight ahead, she saw a dozen large wooden boxes.
"What is this?" Shen Man walked over and opened one of them. Because there was no lock, he could open it directly.
The things placed inside made her eyes widen.
"This..." She turned to look at Gu Chen.
Gu Chen said with a smile: "They were all sold to me by others in the first few years. I didn't want to take them, but I saw that these things are very good and the price is cheap, so I kept them."
The box contained jade, porcelain, and some paintings and calligraphy.
There was some furniture in the corner of the basement. The flashlight had not illuminated it just now, but now she could see it. She couldn't tell what kind of wood it was, but it must be good stuff.
"Are they all genuine?" Shen Man asked.
She asked because she didn't understand these things. Although there are many fakes in later generations, there were many in the past.
Even older fakes are still valuable.
Gu Chen nodded and explained: "Before collecting these things, I will find someone to look at them. As for who to look for, my wife, I can't say anything about it. That person's identity is sensitive, and it would be bad for him to know too many people. I am not I can’t trust you.”
After all, they asked for it, so they only need to know about it. Since they agreed, they can't break their promise.
Seeing this, Shen Man smiled and waved his hand: "As long as it's safe, I don't care who authenticates it."
There are many people with sensitive identities these days, but they will be rehabilitated soon. In recent years, more people have returned to the city.
"My dear wife, you are considerate." Gu Chen was very happy to have a wife who understood him, what else could he ask for.
Shen Man rolled his eyes at him and said, "You are the only one who knows how to speak glibly."
But it was very useful in my heart.
Don't two people just want to understand each other when they are together?
Gu Chen opened one of the boxes and said, "Here are the certificates for the houses I bought, and they are all written in your name."
"I will also give you the key to this house. When next spring comes, we will tear down this house and build a new one."
"If you like living with your parents, we will live together in the future. If you like peace and quiet, then we will live together."
He didn't care about his parents at all, or in other words, in his heart, his children's parents were not as important as Shen Man.
You may be happy as a partner, but if you think about it in another person's shoes, you will feel that this person is really a white-eyed wolf.
"Forget it, I can still sleep in when we live together. My parents have taken care of the house well. In the future, we will also hire a nanny if conditions permit, so that my parents will not be burdened when they get older." Shen Man understood very well.
What she said can be considered true. There is no conflict between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law in the family, and mother-in-law does not disturb them when they live together. Isn't this good?
Therefore, sometimes when the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law is good, this is a good thing.
Seeing her say this, Gu Chen smiled and nodded: "As long as you are happy. Come on, let's go home and sleep."
The two left the yard, locked the door, and then went home.
Seeing that autumn is coming, Shen Man plans to go to the department store to buy some clothes.
Her habits are still those of her previous life. Last year's autumn clothes no longer match her this year, so she has to buy new ones.
Although this was a bit wasteful, no one in the family said anything.
Gu Nan usually comes to pick up clothes that Shen Man doesn't wear, and gives them away if she can't wear them.
In fact, I always feel that this is not good, but no one thinks it is bad. On the contrary, Gu Nan doesn't have to buy clothes often, which makes her quite happy.
When she got up the next morning, Shen Man first went to Zhang Qi's place to hand over the task and then receive a new translation task.
Seeing that she was leaving, Zhang Qi couldn't help but said: "Comrade Shen Man, would you like to come to work in our unit? Chief Editor Xu hopes you can come."
They had known about Shen Man's resignation for a long time and had been trying to persuade Shen Man to come over.
With a professional counterpart and such excellent skills, it is difficult to find the right person.
Hearing this, Shen Man smiled and refused, "Team Leader Zhang, I'm used to being free. It's good like this now."
Zhang Qi wanted to persuade him again, but unfortunately Shen Man couldn't do anything, so he had to give up in the end.
Come to think of it, if Shen Man wants to work, there are probably a lot of companies waiting to accept him, so there is no need to come here.
After leaving here, Shen Man went directly to the department store. As soon as he walked to the door, he met an acquaintance.
"Sister Zhu?" She raised her eyebrows in surprise.
Jin Fuzhu was also surprised to meet her: "Shen Man, long time no see. Why haven't you come to play with me during this time?"
Since they met, they have met several times and often go shopping together.
Although Kim Bok-joo is also a director, he is a part-time job and often goes out to play.
My father is the director of a government agency and has great abilities, so even if he doesn't go to work, the factory director won't say anything.
Shen Man sighed helplessly: "It was too hot some time ago and I didn't want to go out. What are you here to buy?"
"Nothing." Jin Bozhu replied: "This is not because my nephew is getting married and I want to buy something as a gift."
She is thirty-three years old and is still single, which is very rare in this era.
Shen Man also admires her very much for being able to withstand the pressure and remain single.
But if I hadn't met Gu Chen, I might have been single as well.
"Then I'll go buy clothes first, while you're busy. If you have time, come to my house to play!" Shen Man didn't waste time, and turned around and went to the department store.
Look, it's not too early.
Jin Bozhu left with her things, and the people there were quite anxious.
