Chapter 51: Courtyard Treasure Hunt (1)
When Yang Xiuwen and Zhang Jun arrived at the yard he bought, Xu Liusheng was already waiting for him.
He didn't expect that Wang Mingyi and Na Ye were there, so he walked a few steps to them, bent down and saluted, and said, "Uncle Wang, Na Ye, I've troubled you a lot about this kid."
The old man patted him on the shoulder and said with a smile, "It's okay, Xiuwen. The thread I gave you will naturally make things go smoothly. The key has been given to us. What else do you want to say to Liu Zi? Say it now, later."
He left."
Wang Mingyi said, "I'm waiting for people from the construction team to come over. You don't know them."
Yang Xiuwen saluted and thanked him again and then took out two pieces of paper from his bag and said to Liu Zi, "Brother Xu, we still need to sign an agreement. The main reason is that the decoration team will demolish and renovate the yard soon. The agreement means that starting from today
From now on, every plant and tree in the yard belongs to me and has nothing to do with you anymore, so as to avoid unnecessary disputes later, do you think that’s okay?”
Xu Liusheng nodded in agreement, signed his name readily, pressed his fingerprints, and then left.
The man said with emotion, "Xiuwen, you are thoughtful enough to even think of this, which is good."
Wang Mingyi also nodded in agreement. Yang Xiuwen said: "According to what you said, this courtyard was originally the prison of the general. Who can guarantee that there is something leaking in any corner? If you can't figure it out later, you will be in trouble."
Zhang Jun looked at the courtyard and said, "Xiuwen, this courtyard is too shabby. It would be great for a ghost movie." This sentence made everyone laugh.
At this time, two people walked in. When Wang Mingyi saw them, he said, "You are here."
After speaking, he said to Na Ye and Yang Xiuwen, "Na Ye, Xiuwen would like to introduce to you Zhu Weiguo, Section Chief Zhu from Zhongjing Cultural Relics Bureau and Master Lu from the Ancient Building Restoration Team."
After the two sides greeted each other politely, Yang Xiuwen asked Zhu Weiguo: "Chief Zhu, do you know Zhou Xingwen?"
Section Chief Zhu looked him over and said, "You are Lao Zhou's apprentice Yang Xiuwen." He confirmed.
He quickly clasped his fists and bent down to salute and said, "Yes, I wanted to visit you tomorrow, but I didn't expect to see you here. I'm here to say hello to you."
Zhu Weiguo stepped forward and patted him and said with a smile, "Your master called me two days ago and told me that you were coming to Zhongjing to attend college and asked me to care for you. It's time for you to come. I didn't expect you to be here. Okay."
, looks dignified, not bad.”
In this way, they are all our own people.
In his surprise, Yang Xiuwen told Master Lu his requirements, which were to keep the original style until reconstruction. The front and back yards must have indoor bathrooms, heating, some peach trees, ponds with fresh water, lotus flowers and fish, and ground
Lay marble.
After taking the measurements, Master Lu wrote down his requirements and said, "The cost is not low, about twenty, and winter is coming soon, so the construction period will be extended to next autumn."
Yang Xiuwen said, "It's okay. When you go back, you can come up with the drawings, budget, and decoration money first. We can give you the drawings after we decide on the drawings. You have full control over how to do it. I won't interfere. The only requirement is quality."
Master Lu left happily and said he would have the drawings out in a week.
Na Ye, Wang, Zhu, Zhang Jun and him were the only ones left in the yard. Yang Xiuwen once again extended an invitation to have roast duck in the evening.
Zhu Weiguo said he wanted to invite him, but he refused and said, "Uncle Zhu, Uncle Wang, that master, is it so difficult for a boy to realize his filial piety to his elders?" The master and others pointed at him and laughed happily.
After a while, Yang Xiuwen locked the door and went to Jubaoxuan with everyone. He asked the superior to remember the year and went straight to Zhongjing Roast Duck Restaurant. After two consecutive days of banquets, everyone appreciated Yang Xiuwen even more.
During the dinner, the seniors thought of ways to test his knowledge of antiques, and he answered calmly without any mistakes.
His views on China's future development are very forward-looking and to the point.
Several people said in their hearts, "Smart, steady, knowledgeable, sincere in dealing with people, experienced in dealing with things, and the future is promising..."
On Sunday, everyone in Room 303 was dispatched.
The reason was that Yang Xiuwen said he was going to his yard to pick up leaks. Everyone's desire to hunt for treasures suddenly increased, and they came to the yard at 11 o'clock in the morning.
Looking at the gate, Song Yi and Hu Yuan said, "What a beautiful courtyard."
But after entering, the two of them looked at Yang Xiuwen like a fool and said, "Lao San, you don't look like a retarded person. What did you buy? The sheep pens over there are more luxurious than this one."
Zhang Jun laughed so hard that he hugged his belly and said, "I've already guessed your surprise, but I didn't expect such a vivid metaphor. Hahaha, I'm laughing so hard."
Yang Xiuwen looked at them helplessly and said, "Okay, just wait until the renovation is completed next year. Now let's go into the backyard and start checking each room."
Yang Xiuwen concluded that there was something because of the identity of the homeowner. A former Qing general was the prisoner, so he would not have any private property.
Most courtyard houses have false walls. If the elders don't tell them, the younger generations won't know about it at all.
We started from the ear room. As soon as we entered, we were greeted by a musty smell, broken mattresses and rotten pots.
I raised my head and looked at the datewood beams of the house. There was a leak on the roof and the ground was very damp. There was no door, so I hung a curtain. The window could no longer be closed. It made a squeaking sound when I pushed it. It really looked like
Haunted house.
Yang Xiuwen opened his eyes and looked carefully, but found nothing.
