Chapter 109 Lechunfang


    "Mom, why are you here?"


    Chen Qi was stunned. This was the first time that his parents came to Beijing Film Studio to look for him.


    "Let me tell you, aren''t your dad and I looking for a house for you? We finally found a suitable place. Come back home when you have time and take you to see it."


    "The house can''t be delayed. I''m free now! Just wait for me and I''ll ride there!"


    He ran back and after a while, he came out riding the big 28-inch bike.


    Yu Xiuli didn''t hesitate and set off immediately.


    The Beijing Film Studio is on the North Third Ring Road, heading south, passing various universities in Haidian, and then heading east on the Second Ring Road, crossing the Shicha Sea, stopping at the south bank of the Shicha Sea, and then turning into a group of alleys.


    Many celebrities have lived in Shichahai, including Zhang Zhidong, Feng Youlan, Puyi''s concubine Wenxiu, Guo Moruo, Hua Shuai, Hou Baolin, etc. All the old residents know that in the past, you could often meet Hua Shuai walking by the sea...


    When Chen Qi entered the alley, he first saw the famous "Baimi Xiejie" sign. From Baimi Xiejie to the south, he suddenly turned into an alley.


    A sign is nailed at the entrance of the alley: Lechunfang!


    "In the Ming Dynasty, a southern Jinshi bought a piece of land here and built a garden, which resembled the scenery in the south of the Yangtze River with red peaches and green willows. Many literati gathered here and named it Lechunfang. By the end of the Qing Dynasty and the Republic of China, it was opened here. Had a bathhouse.


    After the founding of the People''s Republic of China, a small factory was built, but it was all gone and now it is in tatters. "


    “…”


    Chen Qi''s expression was subtle. He had lived in the capital in his previous life and came to Shichahai often. He knew that Lechunfang was just an ordinary alley.


    The location is good, close to Shichahai, and only two miles away from Beihai and the Forbidden City. The alley is one hundred meters long and four meters wide, running north-south. It is not straight, but has some diagonal turns.


    There are only 6 courtyards in total.


    This place is under the control of Shichahai Street. Yu Xiuli first found a street cadre to accompany her to see it.


    "This house used to be a street factory, and was later given to everyone to live in. This centuries-old house caught fire in the first few years, so people moved away. Now there is a return policy, but we can''t find the owner. I thought about repairing it and turning it into a dormitory, or continuing to open a factory.


    If I hadn’t known Xiao Xiao, I really wouldn’t have wanted to sell it! "


    The street aunt bala bala outputs.


    "Thank you so much!"


    Chen Qi rolled his eyes secretly. What his mother said was clearly: the house was too badly damaged and the government had no money to repair it. It just so happened that he wanted to get rid of the burden by asking private individuals to buy houses!


    The three of them arrived at No. 6, the innermost courtyard, which was also the largest.


    There are three steps at the door, a mottled red lacquered wooden door, squatting drum stones on both sides, blue bricks and gray tiles, and a dusty atmosphere, which is not close to the splendor.


    The aunt opened the door, and it seemed as if she had pushed away the years of her youth.


    Chen Qi raised his eyes and saw that this should be a two-entry courtyard, or a very elegant large two-entry courtyard. Normally, the north room can accommodate seven rooms, namely three in the main room and two in the side rooms on both sides.


    External corridors can also be set up, connected by hand verandas, forming a circular passage in the inner courtyard.


    But now there is nothing left. The screen wall and hanging flower door have long been demolished, and a few irregular small houses have been built to serve as a large courtyard. Except for the north room, which was barely intact, there were ruins of a broken well on the ground, and there were traces of blackening on the walls.


    To say the damage was serious would be an understatement.


    “…”


    Chen Qi turned around and had an idea in his mind.


    If it were a centuries-old house, he wouldn''t dare live in it, it would be so sinister!


    What he lacks now is land, which is difficult to obtain. He happens to have such a dilapidated yard, so he stripped it down and rebuilt it, just like building his own house. Otherwise, he would consider building a large piece of land south of Beihai and west of the Forbidden City, surrounded by high walls...


    "How big is this yard?"


    "About 800 yuan, but we don''t calculate it by area, but by room. A room costs 500 yuan, which is..."


    Chen Qi turned around and left!


    "Hey, don''t leave, it''s easy to discuss!"


    "Auntie, do you think I''m a stupid boy? I can''t even count the number of rooms in this shabby house, and you want to pay 500 for a room? Go find Sihanouk, he is rich!" "We are not here. Capital City, otherwise I would really look for it!”


    "Just tell me, how many rooms did this courtyard have before?"


    "There must be twenty rooms anyway, this is a big courtyard!"


    "The flat price is five thousand yuan. If it works, it will be fine. If it doesn''t work, I will pull it down... Don''t say anything yet. Do you understand the property rights? Don''t let me build my new house and suddenly a man pops up and says that this yard belongs to him!" Or if you jumped out on your own and said you wanted to take it back, then I wouldn’t be taken advantage of?”


    "I have a relationship with your mother, how can I do this?"


    "Every code is a code. We go to the housing management office, the district, and the notary office. Anyway, we have to implement the property rights and make sure it belongs to me before I can pay for it."


    Chen Qi negotiated the whole process by himself, while Yu Xiuli watched with pride.


    This kid will follow me and won’t suffer any loss!


    The aunt sighed, nagging unintelligible words such as "Socialist people''s hearts are not old" and "Where is the trust between people?", which made the two mothers burst into laughter, and the atmosphere inside and outside Lechunfang was filled with joy.


    After looking at the room, Chen Qi went back.


    To be honest, he didn''t pay much attention to it. He just bought it if the price was right and kept it as a collection.


    Because even if he lived there, he wouldn''t be able to live in this place for a lifetime, at most for a few years. What he yearned for was a big mansion in future generations, and the primitive courtyard house was not comfortable at all.


    Fortunately, I can change it myself, and I already have a template in my mind. First, the wall must be built, and then some plants should be planted to block it. Friends who often have **** know how important privacy is.


    Staying in a hotel will be a challenge in future generations, and you might become a domestic leading actor. This is not bad, but the worst thing is that you find out that your girlfriend is a domestic heroine, and the guy is not you...


    …


    Morning, cafeteria.


    Gong Xue queued up to get food.


    She wore a white short-sleeved, plain long skirt with the hem falling to her ankles, a pair of low-heeled leather sandals, and a small hairpin in her hair. This is an outfit that is eye-catching but not too out of the ordinary.


    If she wears a red skirt, that''s it! She''s indecisive, coquettish, bourgeois!


    Liu Xiaoqing, Zhang Jinling, and Li Xiuming, the three golden flowers of Beiying Film Studio, have faces as big as one square meter in total. The bachelors in Beiying Film Studio are used to eating coarse grains, how can they withstand the fine chaff of Shanghai?


    Moreover, this fine chaff fell into the factory, and it was a colleague!


    "Comrade Gong Xue, let''s change positions. Can you stand in front of me?"


    "No, no, no, it will be my turn in a moment!"


    "Comrade Gong Xue, you''re so hot. Let me wipe your sweat with a handkerchief."


    "No, thank you!"


    "I have to criticize you. We are all colleagues. Why are you so polite? We should be uniting and helping each other!"


    "No, I have my own handkerchief."


    Gong Xue had no choice but to take out her handkerchief and wipe the non-existent sweat. She felt extremely uncomfortable. Everyone in front of her and behind her were chatting awkwardly with her. The meaning of awkward chat is awkward, very awkward, and I think I am very humorous.


    "I''ve finished it, I won''t bother you anymore!"


    She finally finished her meal and saw the two of them chasing after her. She was worried about where to go to eat. Suddenly she saw Zhang Jinling waving: "Xiao Gong, come and eat together!"


    "Okay!"


    She quickly walked over and sat across from him, only to find that there were two people next to Zhang Jinling, one was Liu Xiaoqing and the other was Li Xiuming.


    Yo ho!


    Everyone''s eyes turned away, it was meaningful. Although Gong Xue had not yet become famous, the four women sitting at the same table were subtly interesting.


    Three golden flowers are about to become four.


    Cai Ming: emmmm!
