Chapter 248: Red Gourd
Hong Yanwu finished his stall, and when he turned his head, he remembered that his father was here.
Because he had always entrusted Izumi to help every afternoon, he asked Izumi.
"Is there a problem with the old man, right?
Chen Liquan thought for a while and answered.
"It's almost done, and if you want me to see it, I'm going to buy wine. Let's go back and send a truck to Dabeiyao (Beijing Distillery - Red Star Brand), or Niulanshan (Niulanshan Distillery - Huadeng Pai) to help pull a trip. ”
This matter is easy to do, Hong Yanwu nodded.
didn't expect that the situation Chen Liquan said below was really evil.
"By the way, yesterday, there's something new. I don't know why, but the old man asked me to take someone to dig a big hole in the middle of the house. If you have a good ground, you have to dig out four large round pits. I patronized and worked, and when I wanted to ask, the old man went home. Xiao Wu, do you know why?"
Hong Yanwu didn't understand either, and he didn't have a clue after thinking about it for a long time.
Shaking his head, he asked again.
"Is the name of the tavern ready? According to the rules of our Hong family, does the old man have another 'Yan' residence?"
Unexpectedly, this time it was even more unexpected for him.
Quanzi actually said, "No name, the old man doesn't seem to plan to hang a signboard, I asked, I want to make one, and the old man stopped it." Later, the old man wrote four words in his own hand, 'Feel free to drink', and pasted it on the door frame, without even a door plaque......"
Ahh
But the problem is that the old man is not a door-picker, but a real expert.
Why won't you save money on this?
Hearing this, Hong Yanwu became more and more incomprehensible.
At this time, I heard their conversation, and Shui Qing also came to interject.
"Xiao Wu, look at you, you gave Dad 20,000 yuan, and I didn't care about anything else. It's not appropriate to point to Quanzi to help my father, isn't it? Not to mention that the eldest brother and sister-in-law used to take care of it, two days ago, Master Zhang went on a special trip. I think now that we're free, we should hurry up. Let's see if there's anything you can do to help other than sending a car to buy alcohol. Don't let the old man take the initiative to speak, and feel awkward in his heart. ”
This is reasonable, so there was no delay that afternoon, Hong Yanwu and Shui Qing went to Hong Lucheng's tavern as soon as they got off work.
On the contrary, Chen Liquan's sidecar motorcycle couldn't catch fire, so he had to go to the old driver in the factory to help repair it.
He delayed this day and didn't make it.
Speaking of which, we have to mention the location of this tavern.
Don't look at Hong Yanwu and Shui Qing for the first time, but they will never turn around, because that place is very easy to find.
What Hong Lucheng took a fancy to was the east gate of the "Wanshou West Palace", and the workers of the original "Garden Bureau" used as warehouses and tools for seven bungalows.
As soon as people arrive at the gate of the park, they will also arrive at the ground, and they will never be mistaken.
And the biggest advantage of this house is actually that it is close to home, and it is only five or six hundred meters away from the Furuli Guanyin Temple.
The old man goes back and forth every day, and he will never be tired, which is equivalent to the door of his home.
In addition, there is another important point, which is that the rent is very cheap.
If it was calculated according to the commercial rental price stipulated by the state at that time, the worst lot was three yuan and eight yuan per square meter.
According to a room of 15 square meters, these seven rooms should be 300 yuan.
But Hong Lu rented all the houses, and the total was only 100 yuan a month, and a lease contract was ten years.
To ask why it is so appropriate.
This has to be said because the private economy was not yet developed at that time.
Since most of the self-employed are still in the development stage of renting stalls, foreign businessmen have not yet begun to enter Beijing, and the supply of front-door houses is far from exceeding demand.
Moreover, this area is not a lively commercial area, and the people living in it are all poor people.
The Garden Bureau just wants to rent out this house, and it is difficult to find the owner.
Second, as I said earlier, the old man's opening of this business is convenient for the people, and it has received strong support from the street.
If the neighborhood and neighborhood committees come forward to negotiate, and then on the grounds of serving the people, the "Garden Bureau" will have to sell some face.
As for the third, this "Wanshou West Palace" is still a free park.
The "Garden Bureau" thinks that this is a hole where money is put in for nothing, and it has never paid attention to it.
On weekdays, there is almost no one to maintain it.
The gardeners are only afraid that the trees will die of drought in the summer, so they just have to water them without a match.
But in this way, those houses are considered blind.
Often no one knows that the house is leaking, and the glass is often smashed by naughty children.
It wasn't until someone came to see that everything in the house was soaked and damaged, so that I could ask my superiors for instructions and find someone to repair the house.
But it's also a vain repair, because next time, most of it will be bad.
Anyway, let's put it this way, the "Garden Bureau" not only has to pay for water in vain every year, but also the loss of poor maintenance of the house is even greater.
So for them, as long as they can collect some rent, it is already a good thing.
At least the house won't break down so often, and the water bill will come out this year, right?
Who can think about what the future will look like?
Not to mention a ten-year contract, even twenty or thirty years, I am willing to sign it.
As a result, Hong Lu naturally took a big advantage.
According to Hong Yanwu, his father is equivalent to being invincible.
Because even if the business is really dry, when the economy heats up, you can get the book back as soon as you sublet the house to others.
But even so, the proximity to home and the low rent still can't summarize all the benefits of this house.
As soon as Hong Yanwu arrived here, he looked at it carefully.
He really felt that the old man had a unique vision, and he was too accurate in picking a house.
Because whether it is the boundary, the environment, or the facilities of the house itself, there is nothing unsuitable.
If you don't believe it, look at it.
First of all, this row of houses faces the road to the east, and the park entrance is on the right.
Diagonally opposite, there is also a small non-staple food shop on the high steps at the entrance of the alley of "Pingyuanli", and there is a breakfast shop.
Not to mention that there are a lot of people coming and going here on weekdays, it is also convenient to buy some food, buy some cigarettes and alcohol, and buy some bits and pieces.
Secondly, to the west of this row of houses, it is in the park.
Not to mention facing a lawn, there is a hawthorn forest further away.
This has to open a door and set up some fenced tables and chairs, and in summer, it is a natural open-air garden.
Sitting outside drinking a little wine, looking at the scenery, and there is no dust and smoke, how beautiful should it be?
Finally, because this house is for garden workers.
Don't look simple, but at that time, it was irrigation with tap water, and there was both upper and lower water, and the "well" of the main gate was close at hand.
There is even a paved pool on the exterior wall next to it.
To put it bluntly, when the water in this house was not stopped, the Garden Bureau still paid the water bill.
Whether it's the guys' daily life, or the water in the kitchen, it's all very convenient.
But then again, it's good, it's just the same, the decoration of this room is too simple.
From the outside of the house, the old man didn't seem to have done anything except change the doors and windows.
Even the cracked cement outside the wall has not been repaired, and it is the same as the row houses where ordinary residents live.
It's really like what Chen Liquan said, this tavern really has no signboard and no name.
I saw that on the wooden door on the front of the tavern was a black letter on a red background with the words "Feel free to drink".
Where is this like a shopkeeper who sells and sells?
Hey, but there's one thing that's interesting.
That is, under the eaves on the right side of the main entrance of the tavern, a red and conspicuous thing was hung with iron wire.
When the wind blows, it swings, and it spins from time to time.
What is this? Chen Liquan didn't mention it.
Hong Yanwu and Shui Qing walked over together with curiosity.
And when the two of them saw it clearly, they couldn't help laughing.
Dare to love is a big wine gourd with a crooked mouth and red lacquer, tied with a red cloth underneath, and two words engraved on it - "Hong Ji".
"The old man is amazing. Where did you find this thing? This is to sing "Night Run"? Hey, you say, there is a big gun at the door, does it make people see it, and they can think that Lin Chong is drinking inside. ”
Regarding Hong Yanwu's stinky poverty, Shui Qingxiao laughed, but he was afraid that the house would hear it and make the old man unhappy.
Hurry up and stop him.
"Don't talk nonsense, I think Dad's advertisement is very good, how interesting! Who said that the tavern is nameless? I think it's better to call it a red gourd, not to mention auspiciousness, but also homophonic, like our Hong family's business. ”
At this time, Hong Yanwu's eyes lit up, and he praised from the bottom of his heart.
"Well, you have a point. The red gourd is vivid, easy to remember, and creative! Well, I'll go back and find a large preserved fruit to register it......"
