Chapter 320 Life is so helpless, first buy a courtyard and put furniture, alas, I really don't want (1/2)
Huang Shengnan thought Li Dong was uncomfortable, and the weather in Beijing has not been very good recently.
"Why don't you take a break first."
"Okay, I'll go find you after you."
When he returned to the guesthouse, Li Dong quickly tried it. "It's over, I really can't go back."
"No, the sun value is still increasing?"
On the way, Li Dong also looked at the sun value. It increased and the amount of portability disappeared. Li Dong was a little restless. "No, no, there must be something I overlooked."
“The sun is no problem.”
"The date has not changed, that means there is no problem."
Now there is no problem with the carrying capacity except for the carrying capacity. Why has the carrying capacity disappeared? What is the reason? The sun value is insufficient, why is it insufficient? One problem after another is wandering around Li Dong's mind, and in the end he really thought of a possible reason.
"Does it have to be around Hanzhuang?"
"Chicheng is OK, can the area be OK, can the provincial capital be OK?"
Thinking of the possible reasons, Li Dong breathed a sigh of relief. "Maybe it's really a distance. I'm having trouble now. That set of Ming Dynasty furniture and those large pieces of porcelain are really beautiful. What should I do?"
Li Dong is really reluctant to let it go. If he wants to buy it for foreigners, then he is going to commit a crime.
Absolutely not possible. As a patriotic and outstanding young teacher, former teachers must not watch these treasures fall into the hands of foreigners.
"What should I do?" Li Dong was thinking of a solution when the voice of the guard came from outside.
"Comrade Li Dong is looking for him."
"Here you come."
"Why are you here?"
When he saw that it was Huang Shengnan, Li Dong quickly greeted him, but he didn't go to the room and was afraid that someone would gossip.
"I'll come and see you. My mother wants to treat you to a meal at noon."
"I'm fine. Maybe it was because I fell into the reservoir last year and had problems with it. There were always a few days of uncomfortable every month. It's getting late. Let's go, don't let my aunt wait for a long time."
When he left the door, Li Dong was a little surprised to see the parked car.
Huang Shengnan was afraid that Li Dong would feel uncomfortable, so he begged Liu Sijun to drive the car so that he could get less breath on the road.
When he arrived at Huang Shengnan's courtyard, Li Dong slapped his forehead. Why was he stupid? He took the things back because he was not easy to take them back. You can buy them and save them first. Wait for the right opportunity before taking them back to Chicheng.
"Aunt."
"Li Dong is here, let's sit down."
Liu Sijun saw Li Dong because he received a call from Liu Boru and ordered 5,000 handbags. This made Liu Sijun curious about how Li Dong fooled his father and mother. You should know that both of them were smart people.
Especially his mother, she is very smart and capable. Liu Sijun was curious and invited Li Dong to come over to learn about Li Dong’s conversation with his father. Another 5,000 pieces is more than 10,000 US dollars. Now the total national foreign exchange reserves are only about 20 billion.
Any foreign exchange that exceeds 10,000 yuan is worthy of caution.
Liu Sijun thought, Li Dong didn't know, but Li Dong had some thoughts at this moment. He sat down and took Huang Shengnan and handed over the rice. A small bowl. I'm sorry to eat more. "The rice is not enough."
When Huang Shengnan saw Li Dong looking at him, he whispered, "Eat more dishes."
Well, I'm not here to eat, I just need to make do with three or five bowls of rice. Eat more vegetables, and the pork ribs are OK. Liu Sijun was about to talk, but Li Dong had already killed a bowl of rice, and another bowl. Huang Shengnan and Li Dong had a bit fast eating.
Liu Sijun was so amused that this child was so rude. Li Dong was so good that he refused to accept his child. "Auntie, don't be polite." Well, Liu Sijun felt that this child was really suitable for coming to a foreign trade company.
"I'll call you Xiao Li."
"Okay, auntie, just shout."
Li Dongxin said that the side dishes were delicious. "This pickle tastes very good. Shengnan, eat more, aunt, don't be polite to me."
Puff
Li Dong thought about the Siheyuan and forgot to have dinner at someone else's house. "Sorry, auntie, I want to get distracted."
"It's okay, you eat more."
This matter was discussed after the meal. It made Liu Sijun feel a little unbearable to disturb Li Dong’s meal. The child ate so much. Liu Sijun couldn’t help but think of the scene of feeding piglets when he was a child. The child ate as happily as the piglets.
For a simple lunch, Li Dong ate four bowls of rice casually, sixty or seventy percent full, and was embarrassed to eat it again. There was not much rice anymore, so why couldn't I eat it all by myself? This is too unreasonable.
"Auntie, I'll ask you something?"
"Oh, say it."
"I want to buy a courtyard house similar to yours, just in Beijing." Now, Beijing is usually the inner city, which is equivalent to the second ring road now. The others were not included in Beijing at that time.
"Buy a courtyard house?"
Liu Sijun was really surprised. This kid is quite rich. Huang Shengnan whispered. "Li Dong Siheyuan is quite expensive."
"I just got a few royalties, and I still have them for three or five thousand."
Li Dong said it easily, three to five thousand yuan, this young man has some skills.
"Three or five thousand is enough, but the yard may be smaller."
"Auntie, it doesn't matter if you have a little more."
The 20 to 30 electronic watch that I didn't bring was almost sold. I had 80 to 900 yuan plus Li Dong bought some food coupons, and exchanged some meat coupons for stealth. The 200 to 300 yuan I brought, and the 800 royalties were also paid for the 800 royalties. The last time my family paid for children's literature at the last time.
After all, Li Dong is now in his hands with five or six thousand yuan. Besides, there are still US dollars, so I borrow it.
"Okay, I'll ask you. Recently, the country has returned some courtyards and some people want to take action." There are no commercial housing now, but some private courtyards can be sold to the outside world. A large number of people have been criticized and educated for ten years, and are still in shock.
The Siheyuan returned, but some people were still worried, and some were planning to seek refuge in foreign relatives and friends, and some were simply trying to exchange for money for more money.
"That's so thank you, aunt." Li Dong was helpless. He didn't think about buying a house.
I'm not forced to do this, forget it, if you lose, just lose a little, Siheyuan, I'm going to go back and grow vegetables and raise dogs, alas, I really didn't expect to buy it.
The next day, Li Dong got the news and found a courtyard house.
"real?"
It was too fast, Huang Shengnan said with a smile. "According to it, there is a family next to my house who wants to sell it. The yard is similar to my house. Once I entered the yard, the price was 5,500 yuan. I just went to see the yard. There was no problem with the main body. In the past, I stored some four old items."
"Four old items?"
Li Dong suddenly felt energetic. "It's all those things."
"It's nothing now, only a set of furniture, some old books, and the others have been shipped away."
Well, Li Dong also wants to have a surprise. Now it seems that he is thinking too much. "Five thousand five, isn't it too high?"
"It's a little taller. My mother told me when she left. It should be possible to buy five thousand."
"Okay, let's go and have a look."
Five thousand yuan is basically all the money Li Dong has on him now, not five thousand dollars, so it is better not to move the money. Li Dong rode a bicycle and took Huang Shengnan to the alley. Sure enough, it was not far from Huang Shengnan's courtyard.
Li Dong estimated that it was up to five or six hundred meters. No wonder it was a coincidence that it was really good after entering the yard. The tiles were replaced, the house was cleaned, the yard was cleaned, the trees and flower ponds were flattened, and the entire room was gone.
I think in order to stack items better, there is only one set of furniture left in the whole room. Li Dong moved it and tried it very heavy. He doesn’t know how to use mahogany. Li Dong was happy. If this was a set of mahogany furniture, it would be profitable.
But there is a new partition in the house. The owner of the courtyard is a middle-aged and elderly man in his fifties. He looked like a cultural person. After chatting for a few words, he was still more alert. "Five thousand five is too tall. Comrade Wang, you see, there are no partitions here. I still need to ask someone to make partitions. In addition, there is no flowers, plants and trees in the courtyard, and it is lifeless. I also have to find people to plant trees and plant flowers and dig fish ponds. This is not a trivial matter."
At the price reduction, Li Dong pointed out several shortcomings in a row.
"Then how much do you think?" Professor Wang was not good at talking.
“Four thousand five.”
"No, no, too little."
"In this way, I will add two hundred more to you. It's really not too much. If I hadn't been with Comrade Wang, you would have come to an end and like a relative, I wouldn't have added two hundred more. Who would have let me see Comrade Wang being kind?"
Li Dong was very sincere, Comrade Wang gritted his teeth. "Okay, four thousand seven is four thousand seven."
OK, Li Dongxin said, if you give me too much, I will pay back four thousand first. Oh, forget it, we can't bully honest people. If you forget it, just take care of honest people. Who will be the professor?
The two finalized the price, and the remaining procedures were easy to handle. The next day Li Dong got the key.
After a visit to the cultural relics store, I bought the Ming Dynasty furniture and several large porcelain jars. Now Li Dong has basically spent all the money. Fortunately, the 200 yuan given by the cultural station is useless, so Li Dong didn't dare to buy anything again.
The yard needs to be cleaned and the house needs to be cleaned. When Li Dong thought that he would not be alone, and Huang Shengnan seemed not enough, what should he do? He remembered the two Guo Xiujiao and Liu Qingqing, the train.
It happened to be a good time to ask for help, and it was easy to find both of them.
"Comrade Li Dong."
"Gay Huang Sheng."
Guo Xiujiao didn't expect that the two of them would come to find her so soon, and Liu Qingqing was also surprised.
Li Dong had already thought about it. Guo Xiujiao's house is in Wucheng and Liu Qingqing's house is in Pangcheng, Anhui Province. Their backgrounds are good, otherwise the department-level soft sleeper private room would be difficult to do.
It is actually quite important to establish a good relationship. If he can only go back to 2019 by Li Dong's guess, he will definitely stay in Chicheng for more time in the future.
"Invite us to dinner?"
"Didn't it be said?"
Li Dong smiled and said, Lao Mo Restaurant, Liu Qingqing and Guo Xiujiao have also been here once. "Comrade Li Dong, isn't this place too expensive?"
