It’s not that cars can’t drive into the old neighborhood at all, but the alleys are really too narrow. If you’re not familiar with it, if you drive your car in hastily, you won’t know where you’ll end up! But in the alleys, there are still some
Some cars are parked against the wall.
Whether it is a luxury car or not, there are cars ranging from tens of thousands to hundreds of thousands or millions of dollars, but they all have a very unified feature, that is, the body is not big, and some cars are not covered with cloth.
You can see a lot of "friction" marks on it - it seems that in such an alley, all cars are equal, and they have to hit the wall twice.
Of course, Yang Han and the others didn’t come here to see the car!
"Let's go see the courtyard houses in the old capital." Yang Han said to his daughter with a smile.
"Look at the Siheyuan! Are all the princes and nobles living in Siheyuan?" Yang Ruoyi didn't think much about it. She thought they were here to see some places of interest. They had passed by the Forbidden City just now! However, when it came to Siheyuan, she
He also became interested and asked curiously while following his father and the others.
"How could it be! How big is the Siheyuan? How can the princes and nobles live in a small place like the Siheyuan? They all live in a place called a mansion, right?" Yang Han laughed, but he actually didn't understand it very thoroughly, so he said
When they got to the back, they couldn't help but look at Gao Yuankai.
"Teacher Yang is right. In fact, the buildings in the old capital city in the past can be roughly divided into several levels: mansion, house, house, courtyard, and room. Like a courtyard, a courtyard is composed of several rooms, and the mansion, the third
, Zhai generally refers to the courtyards where the princes and nobles lived as mentioned by Yiyi, but they are generally composed of several courtyards, and each courtyard has a different shape and system, which forms what we call two-in and three-in.
Siheyuan." Gao Yuankai helped Yang Han reconcile.
"What's the difference between a house, a residence, and a house?" Yang Ruoyi found it interesting, especially when these three words were read together, it seemed a bit like saying that Voldemort was very homely, so she continued to ask with interest.
.
"As for a mansion, taking the Qing Dynasty closest to us as an example, only the places where princes, princes, beile, beizi, princesses, and first-class Dukes live can be called mansions. Ordinary officials can only say
The laws of the Qing Dynasty have strict regulations on what level of officials live in what level and how big the house is. Moreover, in the case of a mansion, it is a reward from the emperor. For ordinary houses and houses, you have to pay for them yourself.
"Yes." Gao Yuankai said.
"Isn't it quite miserable to be a junior official? You need a lot of money to buy a house..." Yang Ruoyi listened with interest.
While talking, they also arrived at the courtyard house that Gao Yuankai helped Yang Han find.
However, no one answered when he rang the doorbell. Gao Yuankai called the owner and found out that he had gone out. Fortunately, he just went out to drink a bowl of bean juice. He was nearby and would be back soon.
"It's okay, let's wait a moment." Yang Han saw Gao Yuankai's embarrassment and apology, smiled, waved his hand, and said nonchalantly, "Just in case you can tell me, who is this Professor Kang?"
Gao Yuankai put away his mobile phone and quickly introduced it to Yang Han: "This courtyard house used to be the property of an old professor named Kang Baoquan of Capital University. He bought it before the founding of the People's Republic of China. Because the old professor studied ancient architecture, he took good care of the house.
, it has been well protected after so many years of ups and downs! After you told me about this before, I was worried when I inquired about this place, and even visited it in advance. To be honest, I grew up in the capital, and there are all kinds of alleys.
I have been there before. I have been to many places in Nancheng that have not been demolished before. I have never seen such a well-preserved courtyard. There are damaged areas, but they have been repaired. It seems that the original charm can still be found.
!”
"Professor Kang on the phone just now shouldn't be Professor Kang Baoquan, right?" Yang Han did a rough calculation. If he bought a house before the founding of the People's Republic of China, how old would this professor be? How could he still run out to buy soybean juice?
"No, no, Professor Kang Baoquan passed away more than 20 years ago. The current owner of the courtyard is his son Kang Funian. Mr. Kang Funian is also a professor. He is a professor at Beijing University of Science and Technology. He teaches physics and he just retired five years ago."
Gao Yuankai explained.
"It turns out to be a scholarly family! But why does he want to sell the courtyard house here? There should be very few people who want to sell the courtyard house now, right? And this is a single courtyard, not a large courtyard." Yang Han asked with a smile.
Siheyuan has long become a scarce "commodity" with a price but no market! Yang Han previously wanted Gao Yuankai to help him find a few more complete courtyard houses and compare them to see which one to buy, but Gao Yuankai traveled to the capital and found many buddies.
Help, finally I only found such a set for sale!
"The main reason is that Professor Kang Funian is not married or has children. If he wants to pass on the courtyard, he has no one to inherit it. So he has an idea to sell the courtyard while he is still making money and donate the money to
Kyoto University of Science and Technology and Kyoto University have established a scholarship named after him and his father." Gao Yuankai said.
"So that's it." Yang Han suddenly understood and nodded.
People don't do it for profit, but for fame! Although it can be said that what Kang Funian did has benefited many students, in fact, he did it to leave a reputation for himself and his father, so that people will remember it in a few decades.
This choice was made.
Yang Han believes that donating scholarships is worthy of respect, but buying and selling a house should still be discussed separately. How to bargain and how to bargain!
"So, we are lucky and happened to come across such a courtyard house? I think the carvings on the door are quite beautiful. I hope it will be like this inside too." Yang Han said with a smile.
Although luck is the most mysterious thing, Yang Han is not worried about fraud, because buying such a courtyard house is a big deal worth at least hundreds of millions. He can't just chat with a few people and pay for it.
!
If Yang Han decides to buy, he will definitely send someone to investigate and make sure that all the procedures are correct before signing the contract and making payment. The professionalism of his team is beyond doubt!
However, the conversation between Yang Han and Gao Yuankai fell into the ears of Yang Ruoyi next to her. The more she listened, the more she felt something was wrong.
"Wait a minute, Mom, aren't we here for a visit? Why are we talking about business again?" Yang Ruoyi couldn't help but asked her mother in a low voice.
"You didn't say you were here for a visit!" Su Xuexuan laughed, "Your dad said that you are coming to the capital to study, so we will buy a house here first so that we can live in it when we come to visit you."
