"Brother Hu, come and live with me. My house is empty."!
After entering the capital city, Qin Feng looked at Hu Baoguo. In his heart, Hu Baoguo was almost the same as Xie Xuan and Li Tianyuan. They were both his relatives, so he was naturally qualified to live in that courtyard.
"No, Shen Hao has booked a hotel for me."
Hu Baoguo shook his head and said: "I have to travel around this time. It's inconvenient to live in your place. I'll see if I can move to your place after I decide."
Hu Baoguo's trip to Beijing this time was mainly to meet some of the big guys in his faction. Those people were very busy and they might be able to find some time in a day. It was really inconvenient to live at Qin Feng's place.
The Jingcheng Hotel where Hu Baoguo lived was not very far from the courtyard house that Qin Feng had newly bought. More than ten minutes later, three cars parked at the alley behind the courtyard house.
Xie Xuan got off the Toyota car, pointed to the back wall of his courtyard, and said: "Brother Feng, the horse porch in the backyard can be converted into two garages, so that we can enter the yard directly from the garage."
The courtyard that Qin Feng bought is a large courtyard with three entrances and three exits. It can accommodate dozens of families and several generations under the same roof. Even during the Republic of China, only some dignitaries could live here.
Unlike now when people go out to make cars, horse-drawn carriages were popular in the capital at that time, so many big houses had horse porches at home. When it was time to go out, they could just drag the horses to and from the car and everything was ready.
On the left side of the backyard of Qin Feng's quadrangle is a horse gallery with an area of thirty or forty square meters. Xie Xuan has long been thinking about turning it into a garage, but without Qin Feng's nod, Miao Liuzhi, the supervisor, has not been there.
"Change, turn this wall into a rolling shutter door that can automatically lift and lower. I will tell Lao Miao later.
After hearing Xie Xuan's words, Qin Feng looked around and nodded in agreement. He had to go through two alleys to go from the back alley to the main entrance, which was indeed not very convenient.
"Brother Feng, is this our home?"
Leng Xiongfei, who still had a bandage hanging on his arm, looked at the wall that was more than three meters high and murmured: "I'm afraid only princes could live in such a high wall in the past, right?"
Just two or three years ago, Leng Xiongfei was a homeless person with no father, no mother, and no fixed place to live. How could he have imagined that in just a few years, he would be able to live at the feet of the Emperor.
When he passed by Tiananmen Square just now, Leng Xiongfei was already shocked. What made him even more unexpected was that walking to Tiananmen from his courtyard house would not take long.
"Princes, generals and prime ministers, would you rather have the seed?"
Qin Feng patted Leng Xiongfei's uninjured shoulder and said with a smile: "As long as you have money now, you can live a more comfortable life than the princes in ancient times. Feizi, when the store in Jintian is sold out, you can talk to Xuan more. Let me learn from you and work hard in the future. When the time comes, the brothers will be able to build such a house alone..."
As the saying goes, a good man has three gangs. Although Qin Feng claims to be an expert in all three religions and nine streams, a person's energy is always limited. Qin Feng does not want to die exhausted like Zhuge Liang.
After "Zhen Yufang" got on the right track, it was time for him to quit. Now Xie Xuan and Leng Xiongfei will be the main managers of "Zhen Yufang" in the future.
"Brother Feng, don't worry, I will definitely learn from Brother Xuanzi." Leng Xiongfei nodded heavily. Only those who have endured hardship will cherish their hard-won life.
"Qin Feng, are you back?" When several people were talking and came to the main entrance of the courtyard, Miao Liuzhi was walking out from the gate. Apparently, he had been waiting in the concierge.
As the new year is approaching, Miao Liuzhi is also dressed very festively. He wears a bright red Tang suit-style cotton-padded jacket, which actually makes him more than ten years younger, and the age spots on his face are not so obvious.
"Miao Miao, I would like to wish you a happy new year!"
Xie Xuan smiled and gave Miao Liu a thumbs-up, opened his hand and said: "Mr. Miao, there must be something to say in this New Year greeting. Can you please give me some lucky money?"
"Old man, I'm so poor that I don't even have a coffin board. How can I get the new year's money?" Miao Liuzhi said angrily: "No, no, your Master Qin is the rich man..."
"Old Miao, why are you so stingy?" Qin Feng stared at Miao Liuzhi's pocket and said, "If you don't take it out when you have it all ready, stop teasing them."
"Master Qin, it would be a pity if you don't rebuild the Eight Outer Gates." After hearing Qin Feng's words, Miao Liuzhi couldn't help but mutter in his mouth. He knew how Qin Feng could see that there was something in his pocket.
In ancient times, whether it was a bearded robber in the Northeast or a thief in the south of the Yangtze River, a good eye was indispensable. Some people with good eyesight could tell what goods were loaded and their value from the indentations on the carriage.
geometry.
And those old thieves can tell just from the way a person walks how much silver he carries and how much gold he carries, whether it is worth taking action.
Miao Liuzhi's right pocket at this time was holding a few gold leaves. Miao Liuzhi would transform into a small yellow croaker every year to reward his disciples. However, the number of people this year was a bit more. Miao Liuzhi transformed into a total of two yesterday.
A small yellow croaker.
The two small yellow croakers were only four or two in weight, but they were spotted by Qin Feng at a glance. Miao Liuzhi was really convinced by Qin Feng's eyesight.
"Come on, one person at a time."
Miao Liuzhi shook his head, took out a few gold leaves from his pocket, and said: "Master Qin, you are gone. According to Dao, you should give me lucky money."
"I'm poorer than you."
Qin Feng curled his lips when he heard this and said: "Lao Miao, it would cost at least one or two million to renovate this house? How about... you pay half of the money?"
Qin Feng originally wanted to move in after roughly repairing the courtyard, but after listening to the opinions of Miao Liuzhi and Xie Xuan, he decided to completely renovate the courtyard. After a rough calculation, he was afraid that it would cost at least one million.
.
"I have no money, Master Qin, please don't hit me."
Miao Liuzhi simply rejected Qin Feng's suggestion, stepped aside and said: "Go in first, I burned the stove in the wing room in the middle courtyard. Although there is no heater to keep warm, it's okay.
Oh, Master Qin, where did you find this dog?"
Just as he was talking, Miao Liuzhi caught sight of Dahuang who was following Qin Feng. He couldn't help but keep his eyes open and said: "Master Qin, you are not an easy dog. You don't bark when you see people, and your eyes show a fierce look. You are a housekeeper and a nurse."
Good player..."
"The one I raised since childhood is named Dahuang." Qin Feng patted Dahuang on the head and said, "Lao Miao has someone send him a few kilograms of cooked beef every day. Dahuang only eats this now."
"Yes, a good dog should eat meat." Miao Liuzhi nodded repeatedly. He could tell that this old dog must be quite old. When people see old dogs in their old age, Miao Liuzhi feels a sense of sympathy for each other.
After the group entered the courtyard, Xie Xuan walked behind and closed the courtyard door.
"Lao Miao, let's live in it and decorate it, is that okay?"
Qin Feng saw building materials scattered everywhere in the yard, and there was even some scaffolding on the fence. The original flower garden was also in a mess.
"Master Qin, all the decoration workers have gone home to celebrate the New Year. We have to wait until the New Year is over before we can continue working here."
Miao Liuzhi said: "This courtyard is divided into three front and rear entrances. The front yard is the concierge plus the servant's room, there are four rooms in total. Mr. Qin, from now on the old man will be your concierge, and I will live in this front yard."
After we get back to work, we will work on the front yard first and wait for it to be tidied up here. We can all come and stay for a few days. This courtyard is relatively large and the construction behind it will not affect it."
"That's true, four rooms are enough for us to live in."
Qin Feng nodded when he heard this. There is a corridor between the front yard and the back yard, which is equivalent to two separate spaces. This also shows the strictness between the servant and master classes in the past.
After walking through the front yard, Qin Feng pointed to the construction debris on the ground and said, "Xuanzi, Yuanzi, if you have nothing to do these days, please pack up your things. Even during the Chinese New Year, you should keep them clean."
After hearing Qin Feng's words, Miao Liuzhi smiled and said, "Master Qin, I told Jin Long about this, and he will bring a car to take him away tomorrow."
"Well, we always have to have a good time during the Chinese New Year. Hey, this stove is burning so brightly, isn't it going to cause gas poisoning?"
Lifting the thick curtain, Qin Feng walked into the main wing with the lights on. Suddenly, a burst of hot air hit his face, blocking all the cold wind outside. Looking at the stove without a chimney, Qin Feng couldn't help but pick it. Raise your eyebrows.
"This old dog knows how to find a place."
Seeing Dahuang lying down next to the stove as soon as he entered the room, Miao Liuzhi couldn't help laughing and said: "You have to put out the fire when you sleep. By the way, I heard from Jin Long that there seems to be some kind of heater recently, which can It's installed under the floor, I'll wait for him to come and ask about it tomorrow."
"Mr. Miao, that's called floor heating. It involves coiling pipes under the ground and installing ceramic tiles or wooden floors. The cost is quite high."
Li Tianyuan has been working in the demolition company these days, so he knows the kind of heater Miao Liuzhi mentioned, but he can't explain exactly how to use it.
"The cost is high but it has to be installed." Qin Feng heard this and said with a smile: "It will be cold outside and the house will be as warm as spring. It will be so pleasant to have a hot pot by the stove."
"Brother Feng, should we have some drinks today?" Li Tianyuan licked his face and said, "You have got a lot of good wine from Bureau Hu. Can you give some of your brothers a taste?"
"You just have sharp eyes." Qin Feng kicked Li Tianyuan and said, "Go and move, but you need to get some food and drinks. They are all good wine. You can't drink it with salt anyway, right?"
"Okay, Brother Feng, don't worry, I'll prepare all the four cold and four hot dishes."
After hearing Qin Feng's words, Li Tianyuan shouted and rushed out of the room. He was much more addicted to alcohol than Qin Feng, and he had long been thinking about the boxes of good wine in Qin Feng's car.
Although the Chinese New Year is approaching, some restaurants still carry out business as usual. More than half an hour later, Li Tianyuan returned to the wing carrying seven or eight disposable lunch boxes. It was really cold and hot.
Four young people, plus Miao Liuzhi, gathered around the stove and started drinking until after twelve o'clock. Leng Xiongfei, who was injured, and Xie Xuan, who was already drunk, and Li Tianyuan, who were already drunk, each found a bed and fell asleep. go.
"Old Miao, can you tell me something?"
After covering Li Tianyuan and others with quilts, Qin Feng returned to the main room. He could see that Miao Liuzhi had been deliberately getting several people drunk just now.
