After moving, the importance of owning possessions becomes apparent.

Now, not only the dormitory is empty, but also the new house is empty.

Shen Guanglin's meager belongings could not fill such a large yard, and every room was empty.

Fortunately, the entire yard now belongs to Shen Guanglin, and the furniture in the basement can finally see the light of day again.

Move out slowly.

After taking inventory, it was found that the damage to the antique furniture was not very serious, but that it lacked basic maintenance and repairs.

Then just spend money to repair it.

There are still skilled carpenters out there, especially those talented people who originally worked in the former Qing Dynasty Manufacturing Office.

Although the old craftsmen may not live long enough to pass away, their craftsmanship has not been lost, and there are still descendants of their apprentices.

The masters go to work as normal during the day and come over at night to work overtime to earn some extra money, which is pretty good.

The furniture was quickly sorted out and accumulated in the room.

There are Eight Immortals tables, case tables, screens, Taishi chairs, and all kinds of furniture. Of course, not all of them are mahogany, rosewood, rosewood, and some Ochi wood, iron pear wood, and ebony are also used.

Even some furniture is made of ordinary nanmu, fir, pine, boxwood, cypress, catalpa wood, and cypress wood.

However, regardless of whether it is judged based on the model or the year, no matter how bad the wood is, it is still an antique.

Moreover, most of these antiques should be made during the Qianlong period.

After all, the Old Summer Palace was originally the residence of Emperor Yongzheng, but the real expansion was completed during the Qianlong period. Old man Shiquan had the most time and money. He even built so many antler chairs that all Kangxi's antlers were missing. .

There are many beds stored in the basement, but most of them are not dragon beds, which are "official beds" that are better than ordinary beds. They may be the temporary residence of a concubine or a staff member.

There are two real dragon beds, but only one can be called the best.

What makes Shen Guanglin most satisfied is this combined dragon bed. It is made of agarwood and is extremely heavy. It is still intact after cleaning. It has a natural wood color and no need to touch up the paint. It is estimated that in a few years, someone will definitely persuade him to use it. This cultural relic should be handed over to the museum.

Expecting Shen Guanglin to be upright and upright depends on his future enlightenment.

After all, this dragon bed is so beautiful.

The decoration of the "Dragon Bed" is also complicated, but this one thing is actually decorated with ivory, rhinoceros horn, coral, clam, emerald hair, agarwood, gems...

Needless to say, this is definitely a royal item.

Even though such a good bed has been repaired, Shen Guanglin still doesn't want to sleep on it by himself.

So I hired a carpenter to build a few more large beds, using old materials purchased from outside, high-quality rosewood, and carefully carved.

And now furniture factories can also customize furniture, which requires money and tickets.

The newly purchased yard is indeed very large. The south house was originally designed as a store, and only the north house was used for living.

Shen Guanglin asked Xiao Su and the others to restore the original layout of the courtyard as much as possible.

Even so, there are still many rooms that can be lived in. Li Rong and Li Li both chose a room for themselves to use as a "palace".

Moreover, let alone them, even Song Xiaoyu, who eats and drinks with Li Li every day, has a private room, and she can come and stay at any time.

Li Rong was very independent and decided to decorate her room by herself. This time she did not put the mace, but she still placed a screen and a dressing table for decoration.

This girl has a tendency to become gentle.

Li Li doesn't particularly care about this. It can be seen from the fact that there are no female features in her room except girls' clothes.

Shen Guanglin helped her decorate the room, with desks and bookcases. He also went to Xinhua Bookstore and bought a lot of books, in order to attract more sisters to come.

As for Song Xiaoyu, who is she?

In Shen Guanglin's eyes, Miss Song Xiaoyu is a good person. She not only studies well and can be admitted to Beijing University, but she is also an expert at work.

She can carry a bag of flour weighing one hundred kilograms with a roar and walk freely. Her athletic ability is not much inferior to that of Zhang Weili.

If a fight breaks out...

Anyway, Shen Guanglin stayed away from her.

This house has many spare rooms that can be lived in, but there are not many spare spaces in the yard. Even bicycles have to be parked on the corridor of the south house because all the spare land has been reclaimed as vegetable plots.

And all this was arranged by two young ladies, Li Rong and Song Xiaoyu.

The two of them had fun growing vegetables. They planted several rows of vegetables, including cucumbers, luffa, bitter gourds, zucchini, eggplants, and peppers.

They are all vegetables and tools.

Shen Guanglin definitely didn't know how to work in the fields, so he just lay quietly on the deck chair to bask in the sun, holding a bottle of Beibingyang Brand Feizhai Happy Water in his hand;

My younger sister, Li Li, loves to study and read. Even when she comes here to play, she always carries an English book in her hand.

This era is so good. In this era, my sister’s behavior is called being untainted in the mud, but in future generations, she will be a drama queen.

Ever since Shen Guanglin taught her how to memorize words, she has never stopped using small cards in her hands. She has also completely recorded Shen Guanglin's "memory curve theory" and carefully explored and studied it, just to find out what is suitable for her own learning. way.

Shen Guanglin asked sister Lily what she wanted to do, and she said she wanted to go out and have a look.

Shen Guanglin immediately understood that this was because he wanted to go abroad, but he fell silent after hearing this.

In the 1980s, many people who had some ideas and were restless chose to study abroad, but very few chose to come back.

It's not like he hasn't read the memoirs written by international students of this era. They are just about how they completed their studies while washing dishes, full of feelings of struggle.

Then, in the end, I successfully obtained a green card, became a glorious ordinary engineer, and lived a life with a car, a house, and a beautiful wife.

As for those classmates who were "trash" than them, because they did not have the qualifications to study abroad, they had no choice but to make progress at home, and eventually became despised professors, academics, politicians, rich people, local tycoons, and capitalists.

The days are long, let’s talk about the future later.

Maybe she would have changed her mind after Brother Guanglin hit Li Li's home run.

Besides, as long as you have money, the distance between China and Citigroup is not that far.

If his sister really goes to study abroad, Shen Guanglin feels that he is really obliged to prepare more money, otherwise what will happen to her tuition fees? Can such a beautiful girl also wash dishes?

If you don't wash the dishes, why do you do other things?

I simply can’t even think about it.

In the world of international students, each era has its own characteristics. If you are not in this circle, you don’t know how dirty it can be...

In a certain era in the past, studying in Citi was considered the best choice, because their "tradition" was to work during the winter and summer vacations to earn tuition, and they had the social atmosphere and genes to work.

The worst situation is actually those who study abroad in Europe, especially those Western European countries with excellent social welfare, such as Germany and France, because they do not have a tradition of supporting "part-time work" and it does not cost their students anything to go to university.

This makes international students miserable.

When the international students came here, the suffering they suffered was too numerous to describe.

Some international students are not proficient in the language. In order to stay, they can only apply for mixed credits and extend their visas without wanting to go home. Some even sign up to study Chinese in order to get mixed credits.

This is as speechless as when some American students studying in universities in China take English as their elective course, or Chinese national player Ke Jie takes Go as an elective course.

When studying abroad in Europe, it is actually not bad for men. Those who have the physical strength can do some blue-collar manual jobs such as porters and construction workers. In fact, they can make a lot of money;

It's really difficult for girls. The work in the restaurant is tiring and difficult to do. I was a bit pretty and wanted to be more relaxed, so I started a business.

Oh my, if sister Lily went to do this, oh my, I can’t even imagine it.

Let’s plan how to arrange the yard first.

With such a big yard, Shen Guanglin can go out and "pick up leaks" freely.

You can't just rely on yourself to pick up leaks. Entrusting others, especially local snakes, is the most reliable option.

Only they know that whose ancestors were once prosperous may have good things in their home.

But now Shen Guanglin is almost alone, and the only social power he can use is Xiao Su and his group.

And Su Youpeng also has a "legitimate profession", he is a ticket scalper.

On this day, Shen Guanglin was thinking about life alone in his dormitory, and Su Youpeng came to see him again.

"Teacher Shen, please save us!" Su Youpeng came up and asked for help.

Is he being beaten? I, Shen Guanglin, am not Jet Li, so I cannot beat 10 people: "What's wrong? What happened? Speak slowly." Shen Guanglin helped Xiao Su pour a glass of water and let Xiao Su pour a glass of water. He took it easy.

"My eldest brother, my eldest brother has been arrested!" It's rare to see Brother Su so anxious and anxious.

"Don't your eldest brother Su Youliang work in a textile machinery factory? What did he do and he was caught? He was acting like a hooligan. You brothers are the same, each one is better than the other. If you haven't married a wife now, why do you still need someone else's girl? Go after me."

Shen Guanglin is still very familiar with Su Youpeng's family.

Su Youpeng has three siblings. The eldest, Su Youliang, is 30 years old. In his early years, he took over from his father and joined the factory to work;

After Su's father retired from the factory at the "advanced age" of forty-four, he worked as a temporary boiler worker, and the income was not good;

Su Youpeng went to the countryside for several years after graduating from high school and didn't come back until last year.

Su Youpeng also has a younger sister, who is only fifteen years old this year and is in the third grade of junior high school.

This family is the epitome of the vast number of ordinary working-class families in the capital. They are not rich but happy.

Su Youpeng said: "It's not this eldest brother, but the eldest brother in my industry. He is the master who led me into the industry. He was caught while selling tickets the day before yesterday."

"Aren't you people in this industry all very smart? You can still be arrested. Besides, your eldest brother was arrested, wouldn't you just be able to rise to the top?"
