The house Zhuang Rui entered was the main wing of the central courtyard. In addition to the main hall at the entrance, which was used to worship ancestors during New Years and festivals, there were two rooms for people living on both sides. Modern people pay attention to privacy, so Gu Yun deliberately made it a door frame.
There are two sliding doors installed in the place. When pushed inward, there is no trace of a door at all.
There is a tall incense table on the wall facing the door of the room. Under the incense table is an Eight Immortals table with two Eight Immortals chairs on both sides. The backs of the chairs are carved with patterns of the Eight Immortals crossing the sea.
Looking at the layout of the house, Zhuang Rui couldn't help but have a picture appear in his mind. It was the scene in the movie "Party A and Party B" where the landlord and the landlord's mother-in-law, played by Ge You, were sitting in the house and being beaten on the legs by Fu Biao. Apart from the room,
The lighting is much brighter than that, but the decorations are very similar.
"Brother Gu, where did you make this object?"
After entering the next room, Zhuang Rui couldn't help but be frightened. The bedroom here was not small, probably more than twenty square meters, but the big bed inside was really scary, almost occupying the entire room.
, except for the wardrobe made of solid wood, the only thing left is the bed.
The style of this bed should be the eight-step bed that continues the Ming Dynasty. There are shelves on it, which should be used to hang mosquito nets and curtains. The whole bed is like a small room. The surface of the bed is decorated with carved inlays, gold lacquer, and inlays.
They were some jade, agate and other objects that were extremely ornately decorated. It was only after Zhuang Rui looked at them with his spiritual energy that he realized that these objects were purely decorations. They should all be glass products and they just looked good.
"Haha, a senior brother of mine opened a furniture factory. There are a lot of antique furniture in it, and the quality is very good, so I purchased a batch from him. All the antique furniture in the courtyard are purchased from him.
How is it, are you satisfied?"
Gu Yun explained to Zhuang Rui that although Zhuang Rui had entrusted all these matters to him before, the matter still had to be clarified. He and Zhuang Rui had not been together for a long time, so he still had to explain these expenses.
It's better to understand, otherwise if the other party leaves some grudge in their heart, it will turn a good thing into a bad thing.
"That's right, Brother Gu, I really want to thank you. If it were me, I wouldn't have the space to buy these antique furniture."
Zhuang Rui nodded with satisfaction. The furniture in the room was complete. All he had to do was go to Panjiayuan or Liulichang to buy some small items to decorate.
"By the way, Brother Gu, I heard that this newly renovated house smells very strong of formaldehyde. Why is there no smell at all in this room?"
Zhuang Rui thought of a very important issue. Needless to say, the harmful effects of formaldehyde on the human body. Especially for newly renovated houses, it usually takes a week or two to open the doors and windows for ventilation before people can live in them. Zhuang Rui once went to Liu Chuan
I've seen my new house, and the pungent smell in the room was unbearable.
"The paint used to paint the walls is imported from Germany. The formaldehyde content is very low. Besides, these furniture are all in stock and have been made for a long time. The paint has long dried. I specially hired an air cleaner yesterday.
Company, clean all the rooms, and look at that corner..."
Zhuang Rui looked where Gu Yun pointed, but it was an iron basin filled with gray charcoal. Gu Yun continued: "That is activated carbon, which can absorb harmful substances such as formaldehyde. There will definitely still be a little formaldehyde in this house.
, but it is definitely lower than the national testing standards. If you are not worried, you can stay here for three to five days before moving in."
"Well, I'm not in a hurry to move in now. By the way, Brother Gu, are there any heaters this winter? It's getting cold when I see it." Zhuang Rui looked around the house and didn't see any heaters.
My mother is old and cannot live without heating.
"It's up there..."
Gu Yun pointed upwards, and Zhuang Rui saw several inconspicuous exhaust windows. The only modern thing in this room was the roof, because the original old courtyard house could
I saw the beams, but they were all suspended from the ceiling, but they were very delicately decorated. Zhuang Rui thought that the pillar-like lamp was the beam at first.
Zhuang Rui secretly laughed at himself in his heart. Although he was rich, his thinking still stayed in his previous life. Deep in his heart, Zhuang Rui's values for this society and money were still the same.
But it's not Zhuang Rui's fault. He went from having nothing to being worth hundreds of millions in less than a year. Many of his living habits are still the same as before. As the saying goes, nobles are born in three generations, which also requires an evolutionary process.
"Zhuang Rui, there are a total of twenty-eight rooms in this courtyard, including three kitchens, three storage rooms for sundries, and three dining rooms. In addition to the seven main rooms, the remaining eleven rooms can be used.
It is inhabited, but there are only six bedrooms with toilets and bathrooms. There are also two toilets and bathrooms in the front yard, which are common.
We can't install heating here, so I got you a ducted home central air conditioner to ensure that every room can be heated, including the basement and garage. You don't have to worry about that. I also spent more than one million to install it for you.
Electric room and diesel generator. If there is a power outage, the diesel generator can automatically generate electricity. The manufacturer will come for maintenance every two months, so you basically don’t need to worry about it..."
Zhuang Rui could only nod now. Gu Yun had thought so thoughtfully, what else could he say? After looking at the room in the middle courtyard, the two of them walked to the backyard.
The structure of the house in the backyard is the same as in the front, but the layout of the rooms inside is completely different from the front yard. It is completely modern furnishings, including furniture, lights and electrical appliances. Gu Yun has purchased all of them. Of course, the bedding is also
I didn’t buy it, Zhuang Rui had to buy those things himself.
"Here, this is for you. All the electrical appliances in the backyard are controlled by computers. You can control all the electrical appliances with this remote control..."
Zhuang Rui looked at the palm-sized remote control that Gu Yun handed him. His heart had not changed for a while. He just walked out of the classical room in front and immediately entered this room with all modern decorations.
It is like traveling in a time tunnel, stepping from ancient times to modern society in one step.
"Brother Gu, thank you so much. What can I say? If I can use my little brother in the future, just ask me." Zhuang Rui was now grateful to Gu Yun from the bottom of his heart. Although this was just a business, he had to exchange
If you are a construction company, you will never think about yourself in everything like Gu Yun.
"Hey, why are you talking about those useless things? It's true that you invite me to have a nice meal. I've been exhausted for more than a month. Go check out the basement again. You're going to treat me to a meal later.
"
Gu Yun smiled and joked with Zhuang Rui. In fact, he made a lot of money from this project. He could make about 30% of the profit. In addition, Zhuang Rui paid all in cash, which is equivalent to what he usually does in two years.
live.
"That's no problem, Brother Gu. Let's go to Donglaishun to eat mutton later..."
Zhuang Rui patted his chest and said that his knowledge of Beijing hotels was limited to those time-honored ones. Gu Yun smiled and took Zhuang Rui to see the basement.
In order to prevent rain, Gu Yun placed the entrance to the basement in a room in the backyard. The basement is about more than 20 square meters. Ventilation and dehumidification equipment were installed in accordance with Zhuang Rui's requirements, and there were several rows of shelves for antiques.
Of course, it's all empty now.
The hobby of collecting, apart from communicating with collectors, is actually just for me to enjoy myself secretly. Zhuang Rui has already begun to imagine what it will be like when these shelves are filled with collections. Hey, when the time comes, bring in Fatty Jin and others.
, it will definitely scare him into squatting.
"What are you kidding about? You've already finished looking at this house. I've handed over the house now."
Gu Yun saw that Zhuang Rui hadn't spoken for a long time. When he looked back, he saw that this guy was looking at the shelf in the basement and laughing, almost drooling.
"Hey, Brother Gu, feel free to go. Let's go eat first and talk about the rest later."
Zhuang Rui came back to his senses and looked at the time. It was already past eleven o'clock. The three times he entered the courtyard made him watch for more than two hours.
When he went out this time, he took the side door of the garage. After Gu Yun taught Zhuang Rui to set his fingerprint password, he entered the garage. For Zhuang Rui, I am afraid that he will not use this door much in the future.
It's higher than the main entrance of my house.
"By the way, Brother Gu, I would like to hire two nannies. Do you have any recommendations?"
Zhuang Rui backed the car out of the garage and drove out of the protected area. He suddenly thought of this problem. For such a big house, he could hire a cleaning company to clean it on a regular basis, but he couldn't do things like buying food and cooking every day.
Mother, will you go to work again?
In addition, Zhuang Rui also wants to hire two security guards. Although the security of the reserve is good, the people in Beijing are too mixed and they are afraid of everything. With two trustworthy security guards here, I will feel relieved when I go out by myself in the future.
"Nanny? I'll help you find a regular housekeeping company later to see if there's a suitable one. It's best to find a local sister-in-law who can do things quickly and is safer. Well, I'll take care of this.
Already."
Gu Yun thought for a moment and took the matter into his own hands. There are a lot of laid-off people now, and there are also local laid-off female workers in many domestic companies. Although the wages are higher than those of migrant workers, they are safe to use.
"Then thank you Brother Gu. As long as you have good character and a higher salary, it doesn't matter... I'll answer the phone first. Brother Gu, you can drive."
While Zhuang Rui was talking, the cell phone in his pocket rang. He quickly pulled the car to the side of the road and changed places with Gu Yun.
"Hey, is this Teacher Zhuang?"
The caller ID showed a mobile phone number, but it was unfamiliar. After Zhuang Rui pressed the answer button, a man's voice came out.
