Walking into the compound, a rotten and damp breath came to the face, in the middle is a passage paved with green bricks up to fifteen meters wide, the passage is green grass on both sides, there are many trees around the grassland, Qin Zihe can't name it, because this courtyard has been barren for many years, the weeds on the grass grow wildly, and the barren meadow is almost the same, the two stone lions are hidden in the barren artemisia grass, most of the part is covered by the artemisia grass, only the upper part is exposed.

Director Zhang pointed to the stone lions in the grass and said: "The two stone lions are on the stone seat at the original entrance, I came to see them once a few days ago, they are not damaged, and they are basically intact." As he spoke, he pushed aside the wild grass and led Qin Zihe over.

As soon as he walked into the grassland, the smell of decay became more and more intense, and Qin Zihe guessed that it might be caused by the accumulation of fallen leaves and rotten grass year by year after not cleaning up for many years. As soon as Chu Hua smelled the smell, he retreated and stood on the passage waiting for them. Qin Zihe walked closer, although the two stone lions have been eroded by wind and rain, and the black and sudden ones have already lost their luster, but under a closer look, the carving is very fine, after the surface of the stone lion has been polished, there is no trace of carving at all, and its demeanor is lifelike, very mighty

Seeing that the stone lion Qin Zihe and the others retreated, they walked forward. The whole passage is about 30 meters long, there is an open field in front, the open land is the size of a football field, the middle area is paved with green bricks, there is a rectangular flower garden on both sides, due to disrepair, the gaps of the green bricks have grown wild grass, and in addition to the wild grass growing in the flower garden, there are several unknown wild flowers, hidden in the wild grass, and the wind blows and sways with the wind.

The front of the square is a three-storey palace-like main building, the first floor is built with blue bricks, the second and third floors are wooden structures, although they have long lost the freshness of the past, but the glazed tiles are on the top, fly along the bucket arches, carve beams and paint buildings, and it is not the place where ordinary people live at a glance.

There is a two-storey auxiliary building on both sides of the main building, which is inclined outward in the shape of a figure-eight, the architectural characteristics of the auxiliary building and the first floor of the main building give people a sense of dignity, the modern people call the house of this structure as the auxiliary building, and the ancients called it the wing room. Walk through the square, follow the stairs and climb the stairs, and pass through the slow platform to the door of the main building. Director Zhang took out the key to open the door, and as soon as Qin Zihe walked out, he felt that it was dark and damp inside, and there was a smell of decay.

Seeing Chu Hua fanning with his hands, Director Zhang smiled and said: "This place has been idle for more than 40 years, usually the doors and windows are closed and not ventilated, if it is a hot day like now, open the doors and windows for ventilation, it will not take much, and a week will ensure that the smell of dampness can be removed."

There are a total of eighteen rooms on the three floors of the main building, with six rooms on each floor, but the layout varies from floor to floor. Qin Zihe didn't go to see the two auxiliary buildings, but according to Director Zhang, the design pattern of the two auxiliary buildings is the same, each auxiliary building has twelve rooms, six rooms on the first and second floors, although the auxiliary building is much larger than the scale of the main building, but each room in the auxiliary building is also relatively large, not as spacious as the main building room.

In front of the window on the third floor, Director Zhang pushed open a large window, and everyone looked into the backyard, where there was an artificial lake covering an area of one hectare, and the cattails and lotus flowers in the lake grew very luxuriantly, covering almost the entire water surface. Behind the artificial lake is also a three-story palace-like main building, but there are no auxiliary buildings on both sides, and a lot of bungalows are built in a staggered manner, there is a corridor built on the water near the wall on the right side, the corridor connects the front and rear main buildings, and there is a trestle bridge in the middle of the corridor that goes directly to the center of the lake, connecting a huge pavilion in the center of the lake, Qin Zihe and several people were suddenly stunned by the beautiful scenery in front of them

Some things are like this, and listening to people introduce them feels illusory, just an impression imagined in the mind. And the immersive feeling is very different, you will be infected by the front and the scene and atmosphere, Qin Zihe is now this feeling, although he often lived in luxury hotels in his previous life, and he also has more than a dozen luxury villas in various homes, but compared with this Prince Alcohol Mansion, it is not the same, a courtyard is already like this, so, what kind of scale should Prince Alcohol Mansion be?

The special garden is behind the back building, covering an area of about ten acres of land, now the garden has no flowers at all, it is full of weeds, but more than 100 fruit trees in the garden are still tenaciously surviving, there are plum trees, apricot trees, begonias and peach trees, etc., and some trees still bear green fruits.

I looked at the front and back of the compound, it was already 1 o'clock in the afternoon when I came out, Qin Zihe was very satisfied with this compound, if it was repaired and cleaned up, this would undoubtedly be a paradise in the downtown He had already decided to buy it here, but at this time, Director Zhang had been with them for more than a long time, and he hadn't eaten yet, so it was more convenient to invite him to have a meal and talk at the wine table.

Before Qin Zihe opened his mouth to invite, Director Zhang first said to Chu Hua: "Sister Chu, are you still satisfied with this courtyard?" ”

When Chu Hua heard this, he immediately set his eyes on Qin Zihe, because he wanted to buy it for Qin Zihe to get married, so he had to listen to his opinion. Qin Zihe said with a smile: "I am very satisfied with this yard and decided to buy it, the faster the formalities are completed, the better, because it takes time for me to repair and decorate." ”

Chu Hua heard that Qin Zihe had decided to buy it, so he said to Director Zhang: "Director Zhang, you also heard, we are going to buy this courtyard, I don't know when we can go through the formalities?" ”

Director Zhang said: "I'll go back and draw up a sales agreement, and I can go through the formalities this afternoon." ”

When Qin Zihe heard this, he hurriedly said: "Director Zhang, don't be in such a hurry, everyone hasn't had lunch, it's not too late for you to go back to do this after lunch."

Director Zhang said: "No need, I have already eaten when I came at noon, I will go back to the unit to write the sales agreement, you go to eat first, go to my office to see the agreement after eating, if there is no objection, you can hand over the line to sign, and then you go to the real estate bureau to go through the transfer procedures"

Chu Hua let Director Zhang again, and when he saw that he insisted on going back, he had to say, "Director Zhang, you go back first, and we will go to the unit to find you later." ”

Director Zhang said goodbye to Chu Hua and left in a hurry, Qin Zihe and Zhao Lei got into the car, Chu Hua turned around and asked, "Zihe, what do you want to eat at noon?" ”

Qin Zihe said: "I don't care, anything can be done, Zhao Lei is coming to Beijing with me for the first time, you can find a hotel with Beijing characteristics." ”

"Okay" Chu Hua agreed and started the car, when he looked at the house just now, Chu Hua complained that this street was too difficult to walk, and Director Zhang told her that next time she walked on Linbei Street, although the road was narrower, it was easy to walk. The back street is the street outside the west wall of this compound, Chu Hua turned the car in to take a look, and sure enough, as Director Zhang said, although the street is narrow, there are basically not many people on the street, and they all hide in the house to enjoy the shade on a hot day.

When the car stopped, Qin Zihe looked up and saw Chu Hua pulling them to the Quanjude Roast Duck Restaurant, he couldn't help but smile bitterly, he meant that he wanted to find a Beijing specialty to eat, Chu Hua agreed and didn't say where to go, but came here directly. Peking duck is indeed a feature of Beijing, and Chu Hua can't be blamed for this, who didn't make it clear

The three of them asked for a roast duck and a few dishes, originally Chu Hua and Zhao Lei didn't want to drink, Qin Zihe saw that it was a hot day, so he ordered a bottle of cold beer by himself, and he cooled down the heat. During the meal, Qin Zihe asked: "Sister Hua, when you called me, you said, Director Wu said that this courtyard cannot be less than 10 million, but is it sure that it is 10 million?" ”

Chu Hua said: "Zihe, where do you want to go, Director Wu said that no less than 10 million can actually be sold to us, yesterday I talked to Director Zhang, he said that if we buy it, we will give 1010000, I didn't see that he said that I didn't mention the price when I went back to write the house sale agreement, otherwise how to write the agreement"

Qin Zihe was very surprised when he heard that such a large courtyard was only 10 million and 100,000, although he didn't know the housing prices in Beijing now, but in 2 years, he knew that the housing prices in Beijing were about the same as in New York, and some locations were even higher than New York, that is to say, in another 16 years, not counting the buildings here, just this three-hectare land would cost billions of yuan, and it would be dozens of times more than that

Thinking of this, Qin Zihe asked, "Sister Hua, how much does it cost to buy this courtyard normally?" ”

Chu Hua looked at Qin Zihe suspiciously and said, "Buy normally?" Under normal circumstances, you can't buy this yard with any amount of money."

As soon as Qin Zihe heard it, he smiled and didn't ask again. Chu Hua saw that Qin Zihe was silent, she couldn't hold back a little, looked at Qin Zihe and asked, "Zihe, are you going back to your grandfather to live or stay in a hotel?" ”

Qin Zihe thought for a while and said: "I'd better live in a hotel, there are still many things to do in this yard, it's inconvenient to get in and out there, it's too troublesome."

Chu Hua nodded in understanding and said, "It's okay to stay in a hotel, but I told my grandfather about your return today, and my grandfather asked you to go over and have dinner with him in the evening." ”

Qin Zihe nodded and said, "Okay, let's go back together" He went back to Beijing to see Chu Lao, Chu Lao asked him to go over to have dinner with him, and after a while, he went to buy two bottles of aged Wuliangye, which is the old man's favorite

Chu Hua said: "Zihe, there is a celebration reception in our group in the evening, so I can't accompany you back." ”

Qin Zihe saw that Chu Hua had something to do at night, "Okay, you're busy with yours, I'll find Chu Nan to accompany me."

As soon as Chu Hua heard that Qin Zihe was looking for this and that, he was a little dissatisfied and said, "I said can you do it, you have to find someone to accompany you when you go home." ”

Qin Zihe smiled bitterly and said, "Sister Hua, can I not find someone to accompany me, and I can't let a taxi guard in."

Chu Hua couldn't help blushing when he heard this, he just said that where was the trouble in and out, he forgot about it after a while, and blamed Qin Zihe for finding someone to accompany him, so he said embarrassedly: "Zihe, I'm sorry, I forgot about it."
