Du Fei was stunned when he heard this. He had originally heard that there was a famous architectural family in the capital called "Shi Shi Lei" who specialized in building palaces and mausoleums for the royal family. Could this Lei Laoliu be a descendant of Shi Shi Lei?
Section Chief Qian added: "But this man is very naughty... If you do this, after dinner later, I will take you there myself."
"That's a good relationship." Du Fei said hurriedly: "Don't worry, you'll find an opportunity later and go to my third uncle's house. If you risk it all, I'll get you a full bottle of Moutai."
Section Chief Qian laughed and didn't take it seriously.
When the two of them arrived at the small canteen, after finishing their meal, Section Chief Qian went to the kitchen to say hello to his wife, then took Du Fei out and rushed to Lei Laoliu's house.
Lei Laoliu's family lives not far away, just two alleys away from the street office, about 700 to 800 meters.
This is also a large courtyard, but it is more dilapidated and messy than the one where Du Fei lives. The things in the courtyard are piled up in a mess, and there are also a lot of rags that were picked up.
Section Chief Qian has obviously been here before. It looks familiar to him.
Entering the backyard, go directly to the east wing and knock on the door.
"Who is it?" asked impatiently.
Section Chief Qian said angrily: "I am an old money man from the streets!"
There was immediately silence inside, followed by a rush of footsteps.
With a creak, the door opened, and a lean middle-aged man with stubble on his face, with a stiff smile on his face, nodded and bowed and said: "Hey, Leader Qian, why did you come to my kennel yourself?
Please come in quickly, please come in quickly."
Section Chief Qian curled his lips and didn't show any politeness to him, and walked in without hesitation.
Lei Laoliu's home is not big, only about twenty square meters, and it is arranged very neatly and cleanly.
Moreover, Du Fei also discovered that his house actually had a second floor, with the kitchen and living room below, and the small attic above, which should be the bedroom.
The layout of this house coincides with Du Fei's inner thoughts.
Before he traveled through time, the old courtyard houses in the capital were renovated and renovated based on this idea.
The three of them sat down. Section Chief Qian introduced Lei Laoliu and Du Fei to get to know each other, and then directly told Du Fei that he wanted to repair the house.
Lei Laoliu's eyes lit up, and when he looked at Du Fei, he seemed to be seeing a fat sheep.
But what Section Chief Qian said next gave him a slap in the face.
Section Chief Qian's face sank and he snorted coldly: "Sixth, I advise you to put away those evil thoughts, but don't blame me for not reminding you in advance. Xiao Du's uncle is the leader of our municipal bureau's Public Security Department!
You don’t have to give me face, but don’t let your cleverness lead you to the wrong, and then embarrass yourself.”
Lei Laoliu's expression suddenly changed.
He used to be addicted to cigarettes. They were forced to give up smoking just after the liberation. He was punished to death and he was most afraid of soldiers and policemen in his life.
Hearing that Uncle Du Fei was a policeman or a leader made his heart beat wildly. He immediately had a stress reaction and stammered: "That can't be done, that can't be done. I will do my best and let Du... Du lead you."
satisfy."
Section Chief Qian nodded, stood up and said to Du Fei: "How to start work? You two can discuss it, I won't stay here anymore."
"That's it, you go back first, I'll tell Master Lei." Du Fei didn't say any polite words, but looked a little bit offended.
After sending Section Chief Qian away, Du Fei and Lei Laoliu were the only ones left in the room.
Du Fei could tell that this Lei Laoliu was an old man, a snake hunter and a follower of the stick. He couldn't give him a good look, otherwise he would dare to open a dyeing workshop if he had some color.
"Let's go, let me take you to my house first, and then tell you my requirements. In the afternoon, you can give me a sketch, and then calculate how much work and materials are needed. If there are no other problems, I think we will start work tomorrow."
Du Fei's face was serious and resolute.
Lei Laoliu was frightened by this momentum and responded repeatedly. He nodded and bowed, picked up a wooden box and walked out with Du Fei.
The time at noon was limited, so Du Fei couldn't help but speed up his pace.
Although Lei Laoliu was lean, his physique was quite good. He carried a wooden box and followed closely behind him. He walked to the courtyard without losing his temper or changing his expression.
As soon as they entered the gate, the third aunt in the front yard was washing clothes. When she saw Du Fei bringing a stranger back at noon, she couldn't help asking: "Xiao Du, why did you come back at noon?"
Du Fei replied as he walked: "No, my house is in some condition. I need a master to take a look at it."
When the third aunt heard this, she was not surprised.
This courtyard house is quite old. It is normal for the house to have problems. People in the courtyard often ask bricklayers to repair their houses.
Go through the middle courtyard and return home.
But Xiaowu was nowhere to be seen, and he didn't know where he had gone.
Lei Laoliu showed what a professional should look like. He walked around the inner and outer rooms twice, opened the wooden box he carried with him, took out a ruler and measuring tool from the inside, and quickly drew sketches and annotations while measuring various dimensions.
More than ten minutes later, when Lei Laoliu finished measuring, the interior sketch of Du Fei's house also appeared in his notebook.
"Leader Du, tell me what you plan to do with this house?" Lei Laoliu said in a hurry: "I can give you a picture."
"Let's sit down and talk." Du Fei led Lei Laoliu into the back room and poured him a glass of water. He took the sketch and pointed it with a pencil while saying: "We don't need the kang in the back room. The partition will be used as a kitchen."
For the bathroom and toilet, tap water must be brought into the house, and the bathroom should be flushed with the water from the building..."
Du Fei said a lot, and Lei Laoliu's eyes became brighter and brighter.
Originally he thought he was just here to help Du Fei repair the house, but he didn't expect that he actually took on a big job!
Du Fei continued: "Above the kitchen and bathroom, separate a second floor to use as a bedroom. The partition is made stronger. I want to put a fire pit on it and burn the coal stove on the first floor. The chimney is connected to the fire pit.
It can exhaust smoke and provide warmth.”
Du Fei's various thoughts made Lei Laoliu stunned for a while.
I knew in my heart that the young man in front of me was not a stickman who knew nothing.
Du Fei continued: "Since there is a second floor, dormer windows need to be opened on the roof for ventilation and lighting. Is that okay?"
"No problem, it's not difficult." Lei Laoliu nodded quickly, guessing what Du Fei was worried about, and added: "Don't worry, it will not leak in the summer."
Du Fei nodded: "There's nothing in the outhouse. It can be cleaned up and used as a main room. It can be used for living and entertaining guests..."
"Okay, then I understand!" Lei Laoliu was full of confidence and took back the sketch from Du Fei's hand. According to Du Fei's description just now, he quickly wrote and drew on the sketch, then folded it and put it back in the box.
, stood up and said: "Boss Du, I will draw up the picture when I get back. Come to my place after work in the evening, and we will discuss it in detail."
Du Fei nodded, got up and walked out.
It was almost one o'clock and he had to go to work in the afternoon.
The two of them stopped by and chatted for a while.
When Lei Laoliu's family was about to leave, Lei Laoliu suddenly asked: "By the way, Leader Du, can you tell me how much it will cost this time? I know very well."
Du Fei had already suspected this and immediately replied: "With the work and materials, I will give you four hundred and fifty yuan in my wallet. You cannot deduct these. The other fifty yuan will be counted as your wages, making a total of five hundred yuan."
