Most people know little about the repair of ancient buildings. After all, there are not many ancient buildings left in the city. Except for some famous historical cities, they may be temples far away from the world.
However, the profit of ancient building renovation is quite high, much higher than that of ordinary house decoration, because this industry not only requires professional knowledge, but also has specific channels to purchase antique building materials for decoration. The price of these antique building materials is also several times that of ordinary building materials.
, there are a lot of tricks that can be done here.
Gu Yun's ancient construction company has developed very well in recent years. Since they once took over the renovation work of the Palace Museum, they are relatively well-known in these 49 cities. Now their business is not only repairing ancient buildings, but also
Undertake some antique construction projects requested by customers.
"Brother Zhuang, how big is your courtyard house? How much does it cost to decorate it?"
To be honest, Gu Yun didn't really want to take on Zhuang Rui's job, because there were many construction restrictions in the city, especially in courtyard houses. The project was not big, but it took a lot of effort, and the other party was his father's junior. He
He was also embarrassed to play those tricks of cutting corners. If it weren't for the relationship between his father and Zhuang Rui, he wouldn't even bother to ask this question.
"Brother Gu, I don't know anything about decoration. I can't estimate how much it will cost right now. You'll have to go and see it to find out. The yard isn't big, it's probably more than two thousand square meters..." Zhuang Rui
He wants to build the courtyard in a better way. As for money, he doesn't care much. He still has more than 20 million on hand, so he should be able to spend it no matter what.
"Well, more than two thousand square meters is not very..."
Gu Yun followed Zhuang Rui's words, but before the word "big" came out of his mouth, he suddenly woke up, looked at Zhuang Rui dumbfounded, and said: "A courtyard of more than two thousand square meters???"
After seeing Zhuang Rui nodding to confirm, Gu Yun was a little dumbfounded. After a while, he said: "Sure, I will go to the scene with you early tomorrow morning. I said Brother Zhuang, you are a real person and don't show your face. This
The price of a duplex courtyard of more than 2,000 square meters is not low. If it’s less than 80 million, I’m afraid I won’t be able to afford it..."
Gu Tianfeng had talked about Zhuang Rui with his son, but he had not mentioned Zhuang Rui's net worth. He only said that he had an extraordinary intuition and talent for the appraisal of jade, so Gu Yun was shocked to hear that the courtyard house Zhuang Rui bought had
It takes more than 2,000 square meters to have such a reaction. He is experienced in dealing with houses, so he naturally knows how much Zhuang Rui's courtyard house is worth.
"Haha, not that much. By the way, if I want to go tomorrow, I have to make an appointment with someone..."
Zhuang Rui thought of the ancient architecture expert that his uncle had found for him, and quickly took out his wallet and found the business card. He was going to see the house tomorrow, and Zhuang Rui was not sure if he was going to make an appointment with someone else today.
Where is Sora?
Li Zhuang Ruijin, where Gu Yun was sitting, came up to take a look, and quickly asked: "Huh? Brother, where did your business card come from?"
"I was introduced to an ancient architecture expert who is said to be very famous in China. I want him to help look at the overall layout. Brother Gu, there shouldn't be any conflict with you, right?"
Zhuang Rui thought that Gu Yun was afraid that Professor Zhou would take away his job, so he asked this question, and quickly explained it to him.
"Ahem, Professor Zhou is my master's tutor. Not to mention, you have a lot of respect. My tutor never helps private people to inspect houses and produce drawings."
This is really a coincidence. After hearing Gu Yun's words, Zhuang Rui was also a little surprised. But this is a good thing. No matter what, Uncle Gu's son will not blackmail him. As long as the quality of the decoration is guaranteed, spending a few more
Qian Zhuang Rui doesn't care much.
But after hearing what Gu Yun said, Zhuang Rui was a little unsure about whether he could invite Professor Zhou. After the call was connected, he quickly reported his uncle's name. Fortunately, Professor Zhou checked himself
After arranging my schedule, I agreed.
Zhuang Rui quickly called Ouyang Zhenwu and told him about the matter. He knew that Professor Zhou's willingness to agree so readily was not for his own sake.
After Zhuang Rui finished the phone call, the old man was a little dissatisfied. He knocked on the table and said, "Hey, are you guys done with this? Are you here to discuss business?"
"It's okay, Uncle Gu. Didn't I come to give you that set of stationery? If you're not satisfied, I'll just take it away later." Zhuang Rui's feeling about Gu Gu was similar to that of Uncle De.
He loves and cares from the bottom of his heart, so Zhuang Rui speaks very casually.
"You brat, don't I deserve your share of the four treasures of the study? But you are better than this boy of mine. Apart from giving you some platinum and brain gold, you don't know exactly what the old man likes. You are not filial at all.
…”
"Dad, you are wronging me..."
What the old man said made Gu Yun yell that he was wronged. This was not for your old body. Well, when the old man said it, it actually turned out to be unfilial.
"Dad, we're here for dinner."
Just when Gu Yun was about to continue to complain, his wife came out of the kitchen. Zhuang Rui quickly stood up and called her sister-in-law. Gu Yun's wife is also a teacher and is still teaching in the university. After greeting Zhuang Rui,
Then he went to catch a few little guys running wildly in the yard and brought them to the dinner table.
Mr. Gu has a total of two sons and three daughters. The eldest son has something to do today and he is not here. His daughters and the younger son are all here. This dinner is also a pleasant one. While Zhuang Rui was eating, he couldn't help but think of his grandfather and the others. He is now
If it were in Yuquan Mountain, it must be the same situation.
"Xiaozhuang, come with me."
After dinner, the old man greeted Zhuang Rui and walked into his study. In this courtyard, there were two places that no one dared to enter without the old man's permission. One was Gu Tianfeng's study.
There is also a place where he works to make jade.
After entering the study and sitting down, he saw Zhuang Rui busy pouring water and making tea. Gu Tianfeng laughed and said straight to the point: "Okay, stop working so hard, tell me, what else do you want from me?"
What to do?"
Gu Tianfeng didn't believe that Zhuang Rui really came here just to give him the Four Treasures of the Study, and he never told Zhuang Rui about his son's job. Based on his understanding of Zhuang Rui, he must have something to ask for.
"Hey, uncle, you have really sharp eyes, you can see it all..."
"Go away, that's Sun Houhou with the blazing eyes and golden eyes. Come on, I'm still thinking about your four treasures of the study. If you tell me late, I'll forget about it." The old man laughed and scolded Zhuang Rui.
"It's like this, uncle, my mother found my grandpa and grandma in Beijing. In three or four months, it will be my grandpa's ninetieth birthday. I want to give him something to celebrate his birthday. You see what I did last time.
Can you carve a longevity peach out of a piece of variegated jade?"
Zhuang Rui remembered that the multi-colored jade material he got from Xinjiang last time was pink in the middle and about the size of a fist. It would not be a problem to carve it into a birthday peach. When his mother told him about the gift,
Zhuang Rui thought of this piece of material immediately, but the material had already been given to Gu Tianfeng. Even if Zhuang Rui had this idea, he would have to agree to it.
Zhuang Rui then said his grandfather's name. He didn't want to show off his family background, but there was no need to hide it from his uncle Gu.
"It's his old man, so I need to think carefully about this item."
Gu Tianfeng also knows the name of Grandpa Zhuang Rui very well, because many stories in TV series and movies are adapted from the prototype of Grandpa Zhuang Rui.
Gu closed his eyes and began to think, while his right index finger was still gesturing on the table. After seven or eight minutes, the old man opened his eyes, with a sly look in his eyes, and said, "I can help you make that object.
Okay, but you have to do me a favor."
When Zhuang Rui was thinking in ancient times, he didn't even dare to take a breath. Now after hearing the old man's confident words, he took a long breath and said: "Master, if you have something to do, just tell me, whether you want to help or not."
"
The old man smiled slightly, stood up and took a half-meter-sized box from a bookshelf. After putting it on the table and opening it, Zhuang Rui found that there were more than a dozen jade pendants and pendants inside, as well as two small ones.
Zhuang Rui was a little confused about the ornaments and raised his head to look at the old man.
Gu Gu pushed the box in front of Zhuang Rui and said: "There are real and fake jadeite in here. You first have to see if you can pick out the fake ones."
"Hey, uncle, you are always picky about me, aren't you? I have put a lot of effort into studying jade during this period."
Zhuang Rui said shamelessly. When he lowered his head, he released the spiritual energy in his eyes. He was so busy during this period that he had no time to study jade. But with these eyes, it is difficult to distinguish between true and false.
Can't defeat Zhuang Rui.
Zhuang Rui deliberately picked up one by one and looked at it with a magnifying glass. After dawdling for more than ten minutes, he picked out a pendant, two jade pendants, and an ornament, and said: "Uncle, please take a look...
"
"Well, it's not bad. I've picked them all out. Can you tell me about these fake materials?" Gu Gu nodded, with a look of appreciation in his eyes.
"These two pendants should be made of resin. The material of this jade pendant is sapphire, not jade. As for this ornament, it is also nephrite, but with a bit of green. Master, am I right?"
After Zhuang Rui fiddled with a few objects some more, he expressed his opinion.
"Okay, now you are qualified to help me."
Gu Tianfeng laughed, took out a big red post from the drawer of the table, handed it to Zhuang Rui, and said: "The day after tomorrow, there will be a treasure appraisal column on the Beijing TV station, and I will be invited to be the guest appraiser of jade objects. You
