Chapter 236: More Housing and More Money
Since the promise has been made to the employees, the next job assessment and adjustment will be a big move.
This has become the main task to be grasped by Shui Qing in the next stage.
If you take into account the cooler weather, the music café will close soon.
Then, I'm afraid that when the time comes, I will have to place the people of the music café to work in the restaurant, which can be regarded as killing two birds with one stone.
Therefore, Hong Yanwu believes that there is really no need to recruit and train new employees.
It's really not cost-effective to get dozens of more people.
In fact, there is no need to rush the opening of the restaurant, it is better to postpone it later.
As for next year, we'll talk about it then.
In this way, Hong Yanwu's brain is free again.
So his thinking suddenly shifted to "should I set up my own ancient construction team".
If you want to talk about this, in fact, he has been thinking about it for a long time, and it didn't come to this idea out of nowhere.
Because since he repaired the old mansion, he has been completely convinced of the skills of these skilled craftsmen led by Mr. Shan.
He is engaged in real estate, not that he has not been in contact with the ancient construction bank.
To tell the truth, in his previous life, the people he knew who really made a fortune from Gu Jian.
Almost all of his thoughts are on cutting corners and cheating, but he doesn't have much real ability.
Compared with these old craftsmen, it is not a little bit worse, it is the difference between cloud and mud.
This made him feel a kind of worry.
That was after the nineties.
When Mr. Shan is old, these old craftsmen can't do it, can anyone still repair his ancestral house as it is?
He's not unfounded.
Don't forget, even if Mr. Shan is here, there are these old craftsmen.
Isn't the small stone western-style building in the old house of the Hong family not built because of the lack of building materials and the difficulty of craftsmanship?
Later, because Mr. Shan was going to publish a book, this matter was even more delayed indefinitely.
Of course, Mr. Shan didn't pick a pick.
The old gentleman specifically promised him that he would let his daughter Shan Xiangyun, who worked in the Forbidden City construction team, continue to be in charge of this matter.
However, the actual situation does not allow it.
Because Shan Xiangyun also has to go to work.
There are actually a lot of things in the Forbidden City, this hall and that hall have to be repaired, and they often work overtime.
This time he was busy, and people naturally couldn't take care of him.
And after the Hong family's old mansion is repaired, it's not that the house will be fine as soon as it is placed there.
Just think about it, it is inevitable that it will be damaged by the wind and sun.
Therefore, after the beginning of summer every year, the house must be repaired annually.
Wipe the top, brush the ash water, pave the bricks and tiles, and repair the leaks in the wall joints.
And the Hong family's house is indeed not ordinary, the mansion door.
Not to mention the pavilion of "Golden Silk Nan", it is also the style of heavy eaves resting on the top of the mountain and single eaves resting on the top of the mountain.
Ordinary people really can't get it, and they have to be professional, which adds a lot of trouble to Shan Xiangyun.
If you calculate it this way, where will she have any time to be busy with Shi Xiaolou.
Actually, although she herself has always kept it in her heart.
But in a few years, seventy percent of the plan has been planned.
I don't know how long I have to wait for the actual construction.
Think about it, in such a situation, can Hong Yanwu's worries not get worse?
Therefore, in fact, a long time ago, he thought about setting up a Gu Jian team of his own.
Because in this way, he can not only meet his own needs, but also go out to contract the project. And how good is it?
This industry in particular is thriving.
In addition to the private business of the courtyard, projects such as park expansion and cultural relics protection can be accepted.
The prospects for development are very large.
It's just that at that time, if the ancient construction team was to be established, it faced all kinds of problems, which was somewhat unrealistic.
Don't forget, reform and opening up takes time and a process.
First of all, the policy is a pass, far from the extent that private companies are allowed.
Hong Yanwu once asked Song Guofu about this matter.
However, the reply was that "a self-employed person is a self-employed person and does not have legal personality." ”
If you can't start a company, how can you hire people?
Without a formal business carrier recognized by law, how can you sign a contract to contract the project?
And Hong Yanwu wants to touch this business, his ultimate goal is not to get money.
He really needs it, and technology is far better than profit.
So he can't do without a real expert like Mr. Shan, or his daughter, to help take the helm.
But what kind of ideology are people these days?
Making a little extra money is already considered deviant, and it is very difficult to get out of the circle.
Not to mention Mr. Shan's father and daughter, they are old craftsmen.
It really makes people throw away their full-time jobs and go to the sea to pounce, and few people are willing to take this step.
The most important thing is, what kind of family is a single family?
Spiritual civilization is far more important than material wealth.
For Gu CCB, people have lofty ideals and career pursuits.
That is for all the Chinese descendants to protect the cultural heritage of their ancestors.
In the face of such a person, Hong Yanwu felt that he was extremely cheesy, and he felt ashamed of himself.
He believes that even if he does not hesitate to invite him with a lot of money, he will never be tempted by personal interests.
So what about this matter, he was too embarrassed to open his mouth, so he kept delaying.
He was concerned that in a few years, the state would allow private companies to exist.
He is close to Mr. Shan's father and daughter, and if he mentions this matter again, the success rate may be higher.
But now, the situation is different, and it really forces Hong Yanwu to implement this idea in advance.
The house and money in his hand are getting more and more, and they have become a burden.
Let's start with the house.
Don't forget, what Hong Yanwu got back through the policy was not only the old mansion of the Hong family, but also the mansion of his mother's mother's family.
And Wanyan's "half-acre garden" is one of the most well-known courtyards in the capital.
According to Wang Yunlin, it is a masterpiece designed by Li Yu, a gardener in the early Qing Dynasty.
The stone in the park is a mountain, the water is diverted into a swamp, and the platform is a curved room, and there is seclusion and openness.
The structure is tortuous, the furnishings are quaint, rich and bookish, and extremely elegant.
And after the Yan family's show, they are rich and rich.
After several generations, the family did not hesitate to spend a lot of money and built a stage that was no less than the style of the palace.
The caisson and color paintings are even more ingenious and beautiful.
Tan Xinpei, Yang Xiaolou, Mei Lanfang, I don't know how many famous actors in Liyuan have all sung on it.
Needless to say, a mansion like this must be repaired by a true connoisseur.
Otherwise, let alone recreate the old scenery, I'm afraid it will be bad.
In particular, in recent years, as soon as the tertiary production factory of the self-fighting army was withdrawn from the "half-acre garden", there were no more people living there.
Now it is overgrown with weeds, snakes and rats, and birds nesting.
Some houses have even started to leak.
If you don't renovate and maintain it as soon as possible, I'm afraid it will become a dilapidated house and become a scene like chatting.
In addition, there are also properties that Hong Yanwu bought one after another.
Because this kid learned from Mr. Shan, he roughly understood the difference and characteristics of the style and grade of the mansion.
He buys houses and focuses on the location, specializing in the core area of the capital, and takes the independent courtyard as his favorite.
So he bought a house as a spirit.
That eye is very thief, just run into a courtyard with a history and never miss it.
Not to mention anything else, the two-entry yard in his "Guangming Hutong" was used to run a "Renhe and a car factory".
It was because he took a fancy to the "Golden Pillar Gate" and knew that it was not where ordinary people lived, so he was willing to spend a lot of money to buy it.
Later, he made a point to check it.
Sure enough, it was actually a courtyard of Rong Lu's uncle Kui Jun, and it was finally sent to Rong Lu for his outer room.
And he bought a small courtyard in "Goldfish Alley".
Although it looks inconspicuous, it is just a triple courtyard.
But his father was able to make a judgment with great certainty, saying that in the past, the entire Goldfish Alley belonged to Natong, and this house was undoubtedly part of "that garden".
In addition, he also bought a yard on Qianhai West Street.
Don't look at it as just a "Ruyi Gate", it is also full of miscellaneous people, and it has become a miscellaneous courtyard.
Mr. Shan heard that there is a garden inside, and there are stone carvings and handwriting in many places, so he has made a special trip.
After reading it, I went back to check the information, and finally told him that this was the marriage of Qianlong's eleventh son, Yong, Zhengfu Jin, and Fucha.
And later changed hands, and there was also a place where Zeng Guoquan, the governor of Liangjiang who had never made a fortune.
Think about it, compared with these houses that can be regarded as "district-level cultural protection units", even the façade house in Nanluoguxiang and the "Qingyun Building" in Shichahai are nothing.
You can't take it lightly. Right?
But then again, all these houses together have to be repaired, how big is the amount of work?
Without its own ancient construction team, it is simply an unrealistic wish.
After talking about the house, I have to talk about the money.
This thing is good, but it's embarrassing.
Just because of the impact of the "storm".
Over the past year, Hong Yanwu has been cautious.
Not only did he almost put down the matter of buying a house, but he also deliberately avoided antiques and paintings, lest he cause trouble.
The only thing that dares to touch it is the handicrafts of the jade factory, the ivory carving factory, the material factory, and the cultural jade sold in the friendship store.
However, you should also keep a low profile when buying these things.
He didn't dare to see good things and not be able to walk like in the past, so he bought them in batches.
So in order to dispose of the money in his hand as much as possible, he basically bought fine products during this time.
Get one or two at a time, no more than three, and ask for the best and most expensive.
But this kind of buying can't keep up with the speed of money.
Yes, looking at it, there is a lot of money, and it is a little "silty".
Now, he probably has 16.7 million cash in his hands.
They didn't dare to deposit it in the bank, nor did they dare to put it everywhere, so they could only scatter and hide in the old house.
You have to worry about being bitten by a mouse, it's a real headache.
Of course, now that the limelight is over, you can still buy something with great fanfare.
It's just that after his large-scale shopping and special buying over the years, coupled with the increase in foreign trade fairs, and the rapid increase in the number of Japanese, Hong Kongers, and overseas Chinese, the number of people coming to Beijing has increased.
The good things in the capital are really decreasing rapidly, and even the price has been brought up.
He wants to close his eyes and throw the money, he really feels like a loss.
Therefore, looking at it this way, in addition to going to other places to spend money on buying things, it is also the way to set up an ancient construction team to spend the money on repairing houses.
As for the overall situation, he is of course more inclined to the Gu Jian team.
Because you have to have a place to put things when you buy them, you have to have a house.
And if the house is not repaired, it cannot be delayed and will collapse.
As soon as the house collapses, the title deed will be nullified.
What's more, he will continue to buy houses in the future.
If you drag it out any longer, what's the matter!
At the same time, there is no requirement for the amount of funds to buy things, but the amount of funds required to run the ancient construction team is relatively large.
With his current conditions, it was just right.
If he disposed of the more than one million, then it would not be so convenient to do it in the future.
Besides, there is nothing more cost-effective than taking advantage of the fact that the old craftsmen are still alive and can still do it, and cultivate some ancient construction talents for yourself.
If you really want to inherit the craftsmanship of the masters and bring out a successor, he will not worry about the future.
But if there is no such shop in this village, does he regret it?
In short, the sooner the better.
In this way, after some pondering and weighing, Hong Yanwu finally decided to do this.
Despite the policy restrictions, there are no changes at this time.
But the solution is thought up by people, and the living will not suffocate their urine to death.
For the company's license, Hong Yanwu thought of a temporary solution.
plans to borrow Yuntai's name first and anchor under Longkou Village.
This can be regarded as having an official name.
You can recruit talent, buy and hoard materials.
Although the village-run enterprise is almost meaningless, it is difficult to contract the project in the name of such a company.
But fortunately, he didn't care at all, his actual goal had been reduced to satisfying his own needs, and he no longer expected this Gu Jian team to earn him money.
Anyway, he is destined to continue to hoard houses in the future, and these houses will also come in handy.
As long as these houses are beautifully repaired, then the money spent is equivalent to earning, and it is not wronged at all.
What's more, if you don't make money, you will avoid disputes, and such a loss-making transaction will never attract people's attention.
No one cares about you, which is also a good thing.
However, the license is easy to handle, and it is difficult to find talents.
On the side of the single family, it is purely by luck.
Hong Yanwu's hope for success can only be pinned on the father and daughter of the single family in the name of not making profits, protecting the traditional crafts of ancient buildings, and cultivating successors.
Seriously, even if it's agreed.
He didn't expect Shan Xiangyun to really quit his job in the Forbidden City and help him set up this stall wholeheartedly.
The most thought is just that Shan Xiangyun is willing to take on this errand, and Mr. Shan will help him be a consultant.
Later, the father and daughter helped him introduce him to several masters who were willing to earn extra money.
Hire a few full-time apprentices and do the basic repair work.
Anyway, if you can do it first, there is such a shelf, it's better than nothing, and then try to develop slowly.
But I didn't expect that hey, this trip was really shit lucky.
He gained far more than he expected at the beginning, and it really made his wish come true.
